    Fantastic Face Paint: Artist Creates A New Face Every Day
    *EXCLUSIVE TO REX*

    FANTASTIC FACE PAINT: ARTIST CREATES A NEW FACE EVERY DAY

    Wacky artist James Kuhn wowed the world by painting his own face every day for a year.

    Now the 47-year-old from Three Oaks, Michigan is doing it again - and his work is better than ever.

    Imaginative James decided to come up with a new face every day, with designs ranging from cartoon characters to some of his favourite foods.

    And one again he will put a smile on YOUR face with crazy caricatures of Superman, Charlie Brown, Wonder Woman and Evel Knievel.

    There are also poignant tributes to Michael Jackson and Mollie Sugden, the British actress famous for her role as Mrs Slocombe in sitcom Are You Being Served?.

    Other creations include a mummy, Freddie Kruger, a golf tee Santa and a rabid pit bull!

    Some of James' creations are so convincing it is hard to work out where his facial features are under the make-up. Often the only clue is a solitary open eye.

    Of his efforts, James says: "I had so much fun last year with the first 365 faces, that I am starting another 365 transformations, even though I must be crazy.

    "This has been the hardest thing I have ever done - and the most rewarding.

    "So many days I just did not feel like getting covered in paint. Sometimes I was sick or tired and last time I even had a fever of 102 degrees one day so I just couldn't do it.

    "I did do one the next day and I was still so hot that the paint ran down my face.

    "This time i give myself permission to take a few days off whenever I need too once in a while.

    "But the entire experience stretched my imagination and forced me to reach deep inside for more and more ideas."

    But although James has just passed hundred day ma...

    Anna Calvi looks set to dominate the British music scene this year, following comparisons with PJ Harvey and Siouxsie Sioux, as well as the release of her debut album of "timeless songs drenched in dark romance, reverb and fierce vocals."

    With a voice compared to Annie Lennox, Alison Moyet and Stevie Nicks, Clare Maguire is another songstress looking to blow the British music scene away this year. Her music is a mix of artistic credibility and mainstream appeal and her bonus selling point is the fans she has in high places: she met producer Rick Rubin in Los Angeles, Jay-Z told her she had star quality and Jarvis Cocker offered her one of his songs to record. Her debut album 'Light After Dark' will be released on 11th February and she has already won a Q Award as the 'next big thing'.

    Hotly-tipped alt-rock band The Vaccines release their first album, 'What Did You Expect From The Vaccines?', on 21st March, after winning plaudits from Zane Lowe and selling out their first London performance with an audience including Alex Kapranos and Marcus Mumford. With parallels drawn to The Jesus & Mary Chain and The Ramones, they have performed on Later with Jools Holland and will be playing on the 2011 NME Awards Tour.

    Goldsmiths-educated electronic composer James Blake will be releasing his eponymous album on 7th February, thanks in part to some championing by Gilles Peterson, Nick Grimshaw and Zane Lowe.

    An artist has caused a splash with these incredible photographs of water droplets. Markus Reugels drops the water onto trays, egg cups or teaspoons and snaps away as it splashes upwards and outwards. He adds colouring to the water and different colour gels to his flashes to create an intense glowing effect. The bizarre results look like something from a science-fiction film or a nuclear mushroom cloud

    Six-Month-Old Arthur Is Real Child Star Thanks To Movie Spoofs
    A cute six-month-old baby who poses with props to recreate classic movie scenes has become an internet sensation.

    Adorable Arthur Hammond has evoked iconic scenes from hit films including 'Jaws', 'The Godfather,', 'Rambo: First Blood' and 'American Beauty'.

    The tot relies on a range of simple props such as stuffed animals, bath toys, food and his own crib - as well as a little help from imaginative mum Emily.

    The youngster's blog 'Arthur Recreates Scenes from Classic Movies' is attracting 50,000 hits a month.

    And fans from all over the world are sending Arthur requests to act out their favourite film moments.

    Arthur's 'acting' debut used a cuddly toy to recreate the scene in 1979 hit 'Alien' where an alien emerges from actor John Hurt's chest.

    Since then he has replayed Mena Suvari's famous rose petal scene from 1999 hit 'American Beauty' - lying on a bed in his nappy.

    His take-off of 1972 crime epic 'The Godfather' sees him lying in bed next to the severed head of a horse, which is actually an artfully arranged cuddly toy.

    For 1975 horror thriller 'Jaws', open-mouthed Arthur comes face to face with a colourful plastic shark in the bath.

    And his crib is made to look like a jail cell for 1994 drama 'The Shawshank Redemption' with Arthur sitting under a Raquel Welch poster.

    Film buff Emily Cleaver, 36, an author from Oxford, said: "Arthur enjoys all the attention when he is doing the scenes and likes it when I take his photo.

    "He is a very happy, smiley baby and he gets lots of messages, especially, from mums, saying he is cute.

    "It is very strange how so many people from the other side of the world are watching my baby online.

    "I think it helps that it is so visual. People know the films and can look at the pictures ...

    These scary ladies look good enough to eat. A creative baker has made cake-pops featuring horror movie characters.

    As Halloween approaches who wouldn't want to tuck into a blood-soaked Sissy Spacek from Carrie, Kathy Bates in Misery or a truly chilling Linda Blair in The Exorcist?

    But talented Miss Insomnia Tulip from Leeds, who specialises in creating quirky treats with famous faces, has also fashioned horror movie bad guys including Freddy Krueger and Jason from the Friday the 13th films.

    Also getting the cake-pop - basically a cake on a lollypop stick - treatment are stars form the world of music including Freddie Mercury, Elvis, Bob Marley and, impressively, ABBA.

    Reboot For World's Oldest Digital Computer
    The world's oldest original working digital computer has been rebooted after lying forgotten in storage for 20 years.

    The 61-year-old Harwell Dekatron (aka WITCH) computer has clattered back into action at The National Museum of Computing, based at Bletchley Park, Bucks, after a mammoth three-year restoration project.

    Weighing an incredible 2.5 tonnes, it is as heavy as 20,000 IPhone 5s and could fill an entire room.

    The computer has been meticulously re-built by a team of volunteers after Kevin Murrell, trustee of the museum, stumbled across a photo of it and tracked it down in a storage room, where it had been dismantled into more than 50 pieces.

    "I first saw the Harwell Dekatron when I was a teenager in the 1970's and it was on display in the Birmingham Museum of Science and Industry and I was very fond of it," said Mr Murrell.

    "When that Museum closed, it disappeared from public view, but four years ago quite by chance I was looking at some photos of items in a storage centre and in the background I noticed the computer's control panel.

    "The computer had been carefully but thoroughly dismantled into 50 pieces and all the cables disconnected, so it took a long time to track down all the different parts."

    Mr Murrell and a team of volunteers managed to locate around 99 per cent of the computer where it had been lying in the Birmingham Museum's Collection Centre for more than two decades.

    The volunteers then worked tirelessly to re-make the computer, using original circuit diagrams and photos. They also got in touch with the original designers of the computer for some extra help.

    Delwyn Holroyd, a volunteer at the museum who led the restoration team, said: "The restoration was quite a challenge, requiring work with components like valves, relays a...
