Betcha didn't know about Association of Lifecasting International, a group of artists who do "lifecasts" of full bodies and body parts. (Don't worry, SFW.) Perhaps preserve your posterior for posterity? Or what other body part of yours would you like "lifecasted"?
  • First link not necessarily SFW. These are cool links, but I honestly can't think of a body part I possess that deserves immortality, unless it were to go in a museum of the common and banal, or something. And you know, I feel very proud of the fact that I made no mention of my wang in this comment. Damn it.
  • Speaking of wangs, here's a little story about a guy who used one of these kits to, um, well, "have sex with himself". (NSFW text, via Nerve)
  • I have actually done lifecasting, to myself and others, and although I enjoyed the process, I'm not a member of this org, and hadn't even heard of it until now. Great post. I would not, however, cast my body now, as I have become rather overweight in the last year, and my stomach is embarrassing. I had to throw out one of my casts, a full torso cast of one of my ex-girlfriends. My wife insisted that it be thrown out as she objected to it standing in the corner. She had a great body, though.
