Flesh Like Gel Remote Control - really, I can't make this stuff up.

This conceptual gel remote from Panasonic lays limp when not in use,
pulsating with a soft light. But when its sensors detect a hand coming,
it stiffens, ready for action!

"Constructed of a soft, flesh-like gel, the remote appears cold when off. Once turned on, however, it seems to come to life. A soft light emanates somewhere from within as the center of the device begins to slowly rise and fall, mimicking the tranquil motions of breath. Left undisturbed, the remote will slumber peacefully. But should a human hand approach, sensors inside alert it to the imminent touch. It stops breathing, grows rigid - the light from within is extinguished."

Wow, congratulations on the world's creepiest remote, Panasonic. Limp when not in use, rigid when you touch it. Does that remind you of something else? No? Me neither.

MoMA to Present the First Major U.S. Retrospective of Ron Arad's Work

The Museum of Modern Art presents Ron Arad: No Discipline, the first major U.S. retrospective of Arad’s work. Among the most influential designers of our time, Arad (British, b. Israel 1951) stands out for his daredevil curiosity about form, structure, technology, and materials and for the versatile nature of his work, which spans industrial design, hand-crafted studio pieces, sculpture, architecture, and mixed media installations. Arad’s relentless experimentation with the use of materials of all kinds—from steel, aluminum, and bronze, to thermoplastics, crystals, fiber optics, and LEDs—as well as his radical reinterpretation of some of the most established archetypes in furniture—from armchairs and rocking chairs to desk lamps and chandeliers—has put him at the forefront of contemporary design. The exhibition will feature approximately 140 works, including design objects, architectural models, and videos.

Pardon My Mess

Like everything else I make nothing is ever finished. So there are allot of changes happening here and elsewhere on the web as I endeavor to shamelessly promote myself. You'll notice some drastic changes in the coming days to this site and it's links to others. I hope you will find the new layout and additional pages interesting and more easily navigable. In my attempts to bring a cohesiveness to my rampantly running amok through blogs and assorted web pages I have finally concentrated on a solid layout. Time now to herd my content and assorted ramblings into the barnyard.

I will continue to post here in the future content which I find interesting (and by default you should too).

In addition to my flock'n blog there is more I have in store. Take note of the new menu bar located both fore and aft.
There you will find links to the following:

HOME - My main site to find finished works and links to how you can see and buy them. (please take them off my hands)
ABOUT - Well I think that is self explanatory
STUDIO - Here you will find my musings regarding works in progress (live studio cam to come soon)
SHOP - Uh, do I have to explain that one?
BLOG - Thats where you are at now!
CONTACT - A direct link to email me (feel free to do so with any questions, comments or ramblings of your own)

OK, So thats it....Thanks - carry on.
