Most of you have probably seen this already…but pretty damn hypnotic (of course, the wicked music doesn’t hurt).

I read about light-emitting garment tests in Germany a few years back – looks like it’s actually happening! The goal is to eventually make them wireless/programmable, so the patterns, logos, and messages can be easily customized and updated by the makers and users…and the wearers can potentially be tracked by chips sewn into the fabric.

Stay tuned, folks…the world gets weirder and weirder by the second (you only need to see the LED couch clock for proof of that)

Storm Large crushed it on Rockstar last night…and there was much rejoicing. So, in honor of the killage, here’s an old fav from her Storm Inc days in San Fran. Simply: Beautiful… 😀

Crikey…we’ll miss ya’, Steve!!!

Burj Al’Arab – window cleaning

(posted by tobias)

So there I was, at 11:00 this morning, innocently tuning the piano in the restaurant where I am playing these days, when I noticed someone outside the window. Fairly strange since the window is 200 metres in the air and there is a sheer drop to the Arabian Gulf below. Yes, this man is essentially hanging in space with a big long squeegy and a bucket, cleaning the windows of one of the world’s highest restaurants.

For visual reference, the white dot at lower left is a boat, and not a particularly small one. The islands of ‘The World’ development (check it out, quite mindblowing; don’t miss the nauseating promo movie!) can be dimly seen on the horizon.
