The Pong Dress
February 11, 2007 on 1:11 am | In Fun Stuff, Clothes | No Comments
The Pong Dress is the creation of artists Max Moswitzer and Magarete Jahrmann of the Ludic Society.
The classic video game Pong is implemented on a 5×7 LED screen worked into the front of the dress. Two pixels on the right and left borders form the paddles; a single pixel is the “ball” moving back and forth.
At hip level, two retro-style game console controllers are plugged in to play the game. Every time a point is scored, the green score display at chest level blinks.
Binary ring
February 11, 2007 on 12:45 am | In Geek stuff | No Comments
This is the sweetest binary gadget I’ve ever seen, the binary wedding ring.
On the Binary rings, there are 5 parallel tracks running around the ring, each track representing a digit in the binary lexicon. The track is engraved for 1 and left blank for 0. In this way, the five lines of engraving which progress around the ring spell out, in combination, your personalized message.
The message on the ring above reads “A Marriage of Values”. Your message may contain up to 20 characters. Cast in either recycled gold or recycled platinum.
You can get your binary ring from greenKarat or $1750 for the platinum version.

The ZapTag USB wristband, as well as being a cool portable data storage device, allows you to store key personal and medical details.

Should the unthinkable happen whilst you are on the slopes, medics can plug the device into their computer so they can know what treatments they can, or possibly more importantly, can’t use.
The ZapTag comes in two data sizes: 256 and 512 mega byte, giving plenty room for carrying photos and music files, and for added security, the data can be encrypted with blowfish data encryption.
The ZapTag is made of rubber, so is robust and water resistant, suitable for most sports and adrenalin junkies.
Available from ZapTag.

Stand out in the crowd with this great T-Shirt. As the music beats the shirt’s sound-sensitive graphic bars move up and down just like a graphic equaliser. Different frequencies of music will effect the different bars, just like the graphic equaliser on your home music system.
Great for parties, clubs, discos, gigs, concerts and anywhere else you go to listen to music.
