Be Your Own Souvenir - by blablabLAB - Barcelona, Spain

So you’re at the museum, and deep down in the sub-basement right next to the restrooms you happen to discover an enormous machine that looks like it was pulled from the Aliens II movie set. And then you notice you can insert a dollar, and suddenly the machine whirs to life and pipes hot, neon green plasticine into a mold in front of your very eyes as you inahale noxious fumes. Within moments you’re in the possession of a bona-fide neon green submarine, a memento of your visit to the museum that smells strange for days. Be Your Own Souvenir by Barcelona-based blablabLAB is just like that, except a trillion times more awesome. Using custom software developed using openFrameworks and openKinect, visitors film themselves in front of 3 kinect sensors for a full 360-degree scan and within moments a 3D printer known as a RepRap machine spits out a little army guy version of themselves. Every museum in the world should have one of these in their sub-basement, though they can probably install this by the front door. [colossal]

Desert View Tower and Boulder Park - Jacumba, California [notcot]
We didn’t realize when we planned a visit to this dusty “scenic viewpoint” that we’d score decent kid points. As in “Why are we stopping at this stupid boring place oh look let’s climb those boulders YAYYYY!” Along border-straddling Interstate 8, between San Diego and El Centro, Desert View Tower has been an enduring attraction. Yea, there’s a gaudy Indian casino miles west near Alpine, down in a ditch near the Reservation, but DVT is still the rest stop of choice.

A collection of larger-than-life roadside attractions from around the world! All of the attractions on the lists have either been proclaimed as the world’s largest, or are, by virtue of their uniqueness or size, in all likelihood the largest. In some cases there are multiple listings for an item, because more than one of the item is claimed to be the world’s largest. At this time no effort has been made to verify which is truly the biggest. Both (or all) of the items are included.
