Chair changes colour if you're fat

glowing furniture
Air-cushioned chairsKanaya and his team, working out of the university's Mongoose Studio, designed a round table that has a computer and built-in LCD display and four air-cushioned chairs.The table and chairs are linked to each other via a wireless signal. Colour sensors in the table scan objects placed on top to determine their hue and then the computer sends a signal to the chair to match the colour of the object.

The Product: A swinging ‘70s skin tonic called Man Dom. We offer no jokes for this, as they would all fall short of the comedy inherent in a lotion called MAN DOM.

kameraflage


kameraflageTM allows for a new level of expression for those who are required to wear a uniform. Students at private schools and employees of chain-stores will be able to express themselves to their cameraphone toting peers. Will entities that seek to enforce dress-codes be able to combat this technology? Because it is only perceptible within the confines of mediated reality (cyberspace), yet exists in physical-reality, any attempt to control this form of expression will result in forcing people to discuss this decidedly modern grey-area.

Recycling Your Gum (TreeHugger)

gummybins-jj-001.jpg
Sure, it's nothing ground-breaking or even particularly innovative; given its sheer ease-of-use and practicality, however, should that even really matter? Two companies, Canadian Envyrobubble and British Gummy Bins, have come out with a neat solution to our chronic chewing gum littering situation: little collection bins designed for public spaces that can hold 250 - 1,000 pieces of gum each. While we often tend to focus on the bigger items littering our streets and parks — soda cans, food wrappers, etc — discarded chewing gum can become a serious problem requiring a lot of man-hours and cash to remove.

The Beast vs. The Living Vampire

Jay Stephens to re-make Marvel Monster series


the news has finally leaked out about the Marvel Comics 'indy' anthology, so I might as well officially confirm my participation. Rather unsurprisingly, my short piece features a couple of characters from the '70's 'monster-hero' phase that Marvel went through during my childhood. Anyone who read the original run of Son Of Satan will get my drift, here.

Cruise Around Town on Your Free Spirit Bike from Sears

searsbike.jpg
Banana seats and stretch handlebars were part and parcel for the super cool 1970’s bicycle. Customization was super easy. A novelty license plate from Frosted Flakes, steamers on the handlebars and some sweet beads for the spokes so you could be heard coming from the 3 blocks away. Now your good to go.

Seven-year-old rock prodigy wows the crowds

'I hope you enjoy the show,' says Lucciano Pizzichini, 7, here performing classic rock songs on Lincoln Road.
In some ways, Lucchy is just like any other 7-year-old, but in most ways he's not at all.Lucchy giggles at SpongeBob SquarePants and likes silly magic tricks, but he's memorized every note and every word in almost 40 songs.He blushes when anyone talks about two girls he likes, but he can hold a guitar behind his head and play perfect melodies.

Vt. town named 'Simpsons' official home

Maybe Homer just figured it was time to go green.Whatever the reason, this much is true: Tiny Springfield, Vt., beat out 13 other like-named cities Tuesday for the right to host the premiere of "The Simpsons Movie," winning an online poll it wasn't even invited to participate in.

Beats begging, says Marc the Litter Guy


So the 30-year-old got some garbage bags and put a sign on his back saying he was cleaning the city for donations."I needed to make my own job, so I thought I'd go around and clean the streets. I wear a sign -- it tells what I'm doing and asks for donations -- but I don't ask for money verbally, I leave it up to people," said Marc, who has been picking up about 80 bags of garbage a day for the past 11 months.
