For the fangirls (and fanboys) of the Japanese Neko of Ultimate Fame comes the Hello Kitty Skype Headphones and Mic and HK Nano case. All this girly stuff is gonna make me blow pink chunks.

I’m all about the style of the Moog Source. Ogh! This Flickr set has some sweet photos of it. I imagine it’s what a Speak n Spell would look like when it grew up.

Wired news has an article on a new line of TVs by Philips which use an innovative technology to make 3-D TV work without weird glasses
“I entered a conference room in Manhattan and a woman on the TV tossed a handful of rose petals out of the screen, where they floated in the air before my eyes.
At least, that’s what I saw. In truth, the image resided on a perfectly flat, 42-inch LCD screen. But the 3-D illusion was fully believable, and I didn’t have to wear a dorky set of polarizing glasses.
A new line of 3-D televisions by Philips uses the familiar trick of sending slightly different images to the left and right eyes — mimicking our stereoscopic view of the real world. But where old-fashioned 3-D movies rely on the special glasses to block images meant for the other eye, Philips’ WOWvx technology places tiny lenses over each of the millions of red, green and blue sub pixels that make up an LCD or plasma screen. The lenses cause each sub pixel to project light at one of nine angles fanning out in front of the display.”

The Nixon Connect Watch looks like a sweet piece of kit. I like it mainly for it’s aesthetics, but for $170 it better have some awesome functionality.

While on the topic of arrow shaped things, this Cursor Kite is super cool.

These arrow coat hooks look really sweet. They’re limited edition, so I’m tempted to try to make some myself.

I have the feeling that my better half will give in to her addiction to all things ‘neko’ and ‘kawaii’ and sign up for this Hello Kitty credit card. Things will inevitably go downhill from there…

To my dismay I missed out on my chance to design my own Puma shoes when they had their Mongolian Shoe BBQ last year. Well, they’re at it again! And this time wannabe shoe designers will be able to build their dream shoe online. Thinking about it now, this is a great way for a company to both make money and figure out what people are looking for in the market right now. Now where’s my wallet?

If SteamPunk was a reality, I’m sure they would have developed
SteamSynths. Check out the audio file for some sonic goodness. Chugga chugga!

Feuerwear makes bags and stuff out of old fire hoses. I should start a company that makes bags out of some reclaimed material and it would be instantly popular. Hmmm, bags made out of old moldy shower curtains anyone?

For any aspiring J-pop star (such as my better half who looks the rockstar part once she throws on the feline themed axe), your weapon of choice should be the Hello Kitty Fender Strat. Now I suppose I’ll have to be the dork in the back with keyboards while SHE gets all the fame ;) Of course I expect many fine guitar loops to emit forth soon.

Instructables has a diy guide on how to make a 16 foot pan-and-tilt camera crane for $60. Build, then go forth and make awesomely bad movies to post on YouTube.

I’m in the process of configuring up my new studio setup since I moved away from the rock (The rock being Hawaii). Anyone that has put together their own studio has probably spend many a late night figuring out the best way to do it. There are so many decisions: amps, speakers, racks, modules, sound stage, keyboards, etc. One of the most important components of any system is often the most neglected : the cables. I’ll admit that in my last setup I was woefully uneducated about the finer points of cables. For my new rig I’m determined to learn as much as I can, and spend a bit more money to get the cleanest signal path that I can - after all, the sound is the end product - why settle for a dirty track?. One of the key points I’ve picked up is to understand the difference between balanced and unbalanced cables.
