We're pretty sure Bored and Brilliant week culminated in... brilliance. To recap: Because research shows getting bored and daydreaming can boost creative thinking, we gave you an assignment. Artist Nina Katchadourian asked you to stare into a pot of water as it came to a boil. Then, thoroughly bored, she instructed you to create a dream house out of the contents of your wallet.  We know there's no objective way to measure wallet house wonderfulness, but, hey, it's a dream house-eat-dream-house world out there, and Nina has chosen her favorites. Click the audio player below to listen along to hear her announce the photos in this post.  Listen to Nina Katchadourian pick the winning dream houses   Once the audio is playing, scroll through the winners below: Honorable mentions: Coolest Currency "I've never seen money from Kuwait, and it was very beautiful."
