  1. When I was taking art courses in College (my programming career started off with the desire to write things like Photoshop. Figured 'color theory' might be useful), there was a class that was working on trompe-l'œil. One guy did a light-switch, which he place on the wall.

    The number of people who tried to use it was amusing.

  3. It's not the roadrunner that's the concern.

    How much tax money is being spent for somebody to come by and peel the coyote off of there with a paint scraper?

  4. We did a lot of painting like that in Theater, one had to be careful that the Actors didn't try to open painted-on cupboards or trip over painted-on floorboards...

  5. Palo Alto CA, has quite a few things like that scattered around the town retail area. They are well done, and maintained by the city, IIRC.
