From his FAQ page:

How do you transport them?
Very carefully. No, really. Tons of bubble wrap, tuck in your shirt and your shoelaces so you don‘t trip. One wrong move and it’s over. The really big ones are built in pieces to assemble at site, but still… very… very… carefully.

The guy probably doesn't qualify as an artist.....not really an invention....not available as a gift for a photographer - but for lack of a more appropriate place to post, here we go. I love this idea and would totally put these around my house. I've got a very small collection of older cameras, but will have to start looking for this type, go to electrician school and whip some up! :mrgreen:

I would be a little uneasy with that nightlight on while I'm changing.
