Samsung Concept PC
2007-05-08 10:12:00
These are some concept PCs released by the Samsung Design team - apparently there weren?t any accompany explanation materials around it? perhaps I?d just venture my own speculation/interpretation to the intentions behind these designs:Perhaps the central core and base houses the hardware, while the nuclear-smokestack looking part actually projects the screen onto a wall or something?Probably something more like a Media Center? Interesting pull string switch (?) though.A more conventional keyboard, with an interesting lap-table like design. Could the balls be programs that you?re running? When you place them into the recess, it loads the programs that are stored in the balls (you better not live in a shaky place though).

E-Ink in Products
2007-05-06 10:34:00
As computers proliferated, various speculations of how it would eventually be a mainstay in our lives were rife, and the notion that computer displays would eventually replace the traditional published materials like books, newspapers and magazines etc. were especially popular. Like the Sony Reader (first picture) above, flat, book-like gadgets of all shapes and sizes were prophesied or produced.E-ink was a particular fore-runner in this sector. Their technology is illustrated above - millions of capsules houses even more subcapsules that are either white or black in color. When an electrical charge is applied, the black/white subcapsules would drift up or downwards accordingly to form the desired display. There are some advantages in this technology over conventional displays (like LCD) - they are much cheaper to produce, can be made very thin, requires very little power because it doesn?t need to have a backlight, can be read over a wide angle, and are high in contrast and crispne...

Make your own MP3 player!
2007-05-01 10:46:00
Of course by now, MP3 player comes in all sorts of shape and sizes - ranging from the ultra-mini cube-shape ones (like those above) to chunkier, meatier versions that has much higher storage capacities and other functions like video-playback. The hardware technology to simply listen to MP3 music has advanced to the stage where the size is no longer much of a constraint - for instance, the one above is not much bigger than a few stacked coins. Instead, the design, user interface, technology and other factors would come into play - which is why we see the wide diversification of MP3 hardware.The ones in the top picture shows MP3 player that is much like a handphone accessory (now you know you don?t need to pay extra dollars for your MP3-enabled phone - you can get the MP3-phone-strap instead!). What is more interesting, however, is that the internal module (known as MOTZ DIY Music Box) is for sale as well. Featuring the standard volume and track controls (think iPod shuffle), Li-Polym...

adidas takes on Nike

It does seem like Adidas is taking Nike heads on in this ad campaign (not sure of its origin though - could it be fan art?) - the copy reads: ?Nike has great ads?, signed off by ?adidas - love competition?.

What?s Special About this Number?
2007-04-17 11:55:00
A mathematical fanatic, a certain Professor Friedman, either had too much time on his hand, or perhaps he was actually tenured to do this - anyway, he has created a list explaining what is special about the numbers from 1 - 9999, just so you?d know that 31 is a Mersenne Prime, and that 143 is the smallest quasi-Carmichael number in base 8, or that 9862 is the number of Knight?s Tours on a 6×6 chessboard.If the properties of each number doesn?t fascinate you, well, maybe the sheer effort to find out what?s special about each of the 9999 numbers would, like how teachers would tell each kid that they?re special (what happens when everyone?s special?) Though there are definitely plain kids too - when even teachers fail to distinguish any special talent or ability in the child - as is the case for numbers like 8930 - 8939.

Architecture against Threats
2007-04-17 11:47:00
The Berlin Wall was a potent symbol crystallizing the divided world of ?us? versus ?them?. It is stark, monumental, and it gives ?protection? to the people from the foes on the other side of the wall (whether you?re the West or the Soviets). The wall came down in 1989, and some predicted a world with less boundaries.That was not quite the case, and the 911 incident would forever entrench this. Instead of fearing the opposite world power, the fear has shifted to agents of asymmetrical warfares - terrorists. And in place to replace the Berlin Wall are many more little Berlin Walls - various architecture against the newer forms of perceived threats. And, instead of being pure functional and direct in its form and purpose, these new securities are dressed up in disguises.The Freedom Tower (above) may attempt to symbolize the American resilience after the 911, but the insecurity (or to some, being prepared) is betrayed by the 20-story windowless, fortified concrete base. Innocently decor...

Top 10 Billboard Advertisements

Ten Things Your Restaurant Will Not Tell You
2007-04-11 22:25:00
1. "It's more about the sizzle than the steak."Business is good for the restaurant industry. Americans now spend roughly half their food budget dining out, and restaurants expect revenue of more than $537 billion in 2007. That's a 67% increase since 1997. But it's not just our collective avoidance of the kitchen that's pumping profits: Rest aurant s work every angle these days, using marketing psychology to get you to spend more.At legendary Aureole Las Vegas, spandex-clad "wine angels" retrieve bottles from a 42-foot-tall spirits tower. The thinking behind the spectacle: "Anything that gets patrons' attention will get them to spend," says restaurant designer Mark Stech-Novak. Fast-food outlets use a high-stim environment to maximize the source of their profit: "It encourages faster turnover," says Stephani Robson, senior lecturer at the Cornell School of Hotel Administration. "Specifically, the use of bright light, bright colors, upbeat music and seating that does not encourage ...
