This is perhaps the best use I have ever seen phone books being put to. After serving its designated purpose of propping up little kids at the dinner table of course. The deign was shoed at the recent TED conference and though the event forbids cameras, one participant apparently loved this Buddha sculpture made from phone books so much that he (or she) simply could help but surreptitiously click some pics of the beautiful piece of art. Nice job sneaky dude!
