For the corporate side of your life, spice up a bland wall and make it informative. Knowledge can be the spice of life, too. The colourful wall is not the only thing that some corporations look for, but a T.V. on a slide makes things a lot more fun. One can slide the T.V. along…

Shadow art
I found this radomly on some website. The artists names are Tim Nobel and Sue Webster. The site does not provide any information about these artists so I had to look elsewhere. I found out that their pieces are on display in the New York museum of contemporary art. I also found out that the…
Sony Cellphone Towers
Cell phone towers are usually ugly right? Shaped like ugly antennas trying to be disguised as metal trees. No ones really likes having those around their town. At least the average person with a bit of aesthetics in their body. You may not know, but whenever they go up in an area, property value actually…
Need a break from electronics?
If you want to see some amazing things done without electronics, you should take a look at Japanese karakuri. They’re purely mechanical dolls usually powered by water and clockwork. The Dashi Karakuri link on the page tells about giant floats with dolls that would dance and play music as the float was pulled along. There’s…
This is a dress
Not only is this a dress, but it is a pretty dress. The great thing about this dress, other than its aesthetic quality, is that it is made out of recycled plastic bags. Now you can be stylish and eco-friendly. God forbid a fire starts near you, though -Ana Luczynski
Now you can really hate video games
A pair of researchers have devised a new application for biofeedback in game play. By analyzing piezoelectric currents on the skin surface of the player they are able to best guess the next move the player will make. Coining the games that result from this interface “Frustration Games” they found that a player’ intention to…
interactive mirror
Like most people, when i came upon the title “interactive mirror” i thought it was probably some art design or wall that would reflect your image, and in a way, mirrors already do. But as i read on i was very impressed. First of all, this piece of art didnt seem very techy, as in…

Want the iPod Touch but can’t afford it? Well here is something for you(except it’s not out yet..!).. The MEIZU M7. Meizu is a Chinese mp3 player manufacturer that produces quality mp3 players which are priced very low compared to the competition. Not convinced?

Fear Is The Mind Killer: Raytheon’s “Pain Ray”
This reminds me of Dune (not the book, but book-into-movie by kick-ass director David Lynch) when Paul Atreides puts his hand in the mysterious box presented by the reverend mother. Paul then feels his flesh burn and intense pain. He removes his hand and finds it in perfect health? The “Silent Guardian” the name given…

R2D2…Peppermill??
OK, I know this isn’t necessarily “Electronic” media, but I just had to post this. I almost posted a story about another R2D2 projector, but there’s so many of those anymore that I didn’t bother. But then, as I was carousing Gizmodo for today’s post, I happened upon this: an R2D2 peppermill. A projector makes…

James Clar, a New York University graduate, created this piece; Clar specializes in the creation of structures that incorporate technology and art. This piece uses multiple grids of…
