19 Unexpected Faces In Inanimate Objects (PHOTOS)

Try telling these objects that they're not alive. Go ahead. Try. That's what we thought. These guys are alive and kicking. You can tell be their extremely lifelike facial expressions. Yeah, that's right, that toilet has a facial expression. And it cries itself to sleep every night.

What an intriguing and appropriate article! I am the founder of Perspectives Magazine where inanimate objects have real-life events (http://1perspectives.webs.com).

Strangely disturbing. Don't you think? You walk away from the computer, and then you start thinking of all the faces surrounding you...oh, MAN, I gotta get this back better so I can get off the painkillers...

Is it just me, or does the "Tub in Shock" look like Mitch McConnell?

[emncaity]

I was all ready to say "not turtlish enough," but damned if it doesn't look a lot like Chuckles himself.

Is this specifically posting to the one picture I am looking at? It is the "Hitler Lotion" but I do not see his face! Or anybody's :(

I always see faces on objects.

I feel so much better now. I'm not crazy after all : )

I'm always seeing faces on cars made up of the tail lights and shape of the rear bumper. Sometimes the front too.

It's harmless, imaginative entertainment. :)

Lotion Hitler was extremely dumb. You'd have to have a lot of Hitler on the brain to even see it. The rest were good.

My personal favorite: Google earth Manicouagan lake and orient west to the top. The lake looks vaguely disappointed.

This is not a new idea, it's been done before, years before these photos, years before faces in places, years before flicker and years before American Express used the idea. Francois and Jean Robert have been publishing books of faces since 1979. You can find the books on amazon.com.

Disturbed tree was good.

Loved the tree face, but I couldn't see the Lotion Hitler face.

The raised area are his "cheekbones", bar code is moustache.....it requires more imagination than the others; doesn't really have good "eyes".

As a writer, nothing is more offensive to me than plagiarism. This is not a new concept. In fact its a very popular ad campaign for American Express. So I encourage the author of this piece to start coming up with his/her own ideas.

No one can "own" an idea. You can't copyright an idea, or trademark an idea.

VMoe's attitude of wanting to restrict the free-flow of ideas is regressive. It is de-evolutionary. It hampers creativity, rather than protects it.

Where do you imagine ideas come from, anyway?

[VMoe]

01:20 PM on 06/14/2010

How is something creative if its already been created by someone else and simply replicated?

To be fair, I suppose this could be a case of parallel thinking. However, what I have suggested is that the American Express campaign was so popular, it may have influenced the article.

Trademarks and copyrights are called "Intellectual Property", and yes, you very well can own an idea. The point being to protect an idea or thought that is from a unique source. For example, the Nike "swoosh" was simply an idea, right? But Nike decided it was so unique and important to their brand that they trademarked it. The reason we have writers' unions and copyrights is to prevent people from stealing ideas. That's pretty well known.

I would hate for you to come up with something very unique, whether it be a product or a thought, have someone steal and and use it for their own gain and then claim that you were trying "to restrict the free-flow of ideas"

Ideas typically come from one's own experience and perspective. Reality TV was different at one time, right? Now, everyone does the same thing, same format, etc. We live in a copycat, cookie cutter world. I was simply trying to suggest that the writers work a little harder to bring us something different.

Sheesh.

So, wiseguy....are you one of those plagiarists who've been finding funny faces in clouds without paying royalties? .....Personally, I hated having to turn in my grandmother for displaying garden vegetables that looked like people's faces. But hey, it's illegal. Oh, sure, she claimed she wasn't financially profiting. But then I noticed some of her "vegetables" even resembled sexual organs. That's when I called the cops......

VMoe, American Express pulled the faces campaign this past January after realizing that
Ogilvy and Mather had approached the photographer Francois Robert, but didn't use him for
an Audi campaign in 2005. The same ad agency re-used the faces concept for American Express. Who doesn't love smiley faces? Have you even read the TMagazine article as to
where O&M's inspiration came from? Three books by brothers Francois and Jean Robert,
Faces, Find a Face and Face to Face. While their images ARE copyrighted, nothing stops
ad agencies from lifting the same concept to produce an ad campaign, even two that are strikingly similar. Ideas cannot be copyrighted. I find it surprising that you are offended by plagiarism, yet admire a campaign that reeks of it.

There's a very specific, almost scientific-sounding name for this 'phenomenon'... can anyone help me out here?

[Demster]

09:42 AM on 06/14/2010

It's called pareidolia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia
