Kind of like a factory farm for humans, I’ve seen similar things in video games, however imagine if this actually worked? This is a concept design for “a combination farm-restaurant-hotel-amusement park, designed to accommodate 1,000 visitors a day”. Thanks to Fast Company for the link.
Looking for some design inspiration? Check out some of these video’s on the TED.com website (some new, some old, worth watching more than once). There are dozen’s more than this, of course, these are just a few that I’ve been watching lately:
Faux nostalgia, by Illustrator and humorist Bruce McCall
Comedian Ursus Wehrli tidies up art
Malcolm Gladwell on spaghetti sauce
Tim Ferriss: Smash fear, learn anything
“Jim Denevan draws inspiration from the earth to create sensual works of fleeting beauty—culinary installations in sunny farmlands across America and large-scale art pieces on the wave-swept sands of coastal beaches.” You can make a reservation on his website.
This is one of the most horribly wonderful things I’ve ever seen. It’s kitch at it’s most brilliant. This is what happens when you let artists design your clothes. Apparently Lady Gaga has a team of artists that help design her wardrobe. She wore this wonderful thing for an interview in Germany recently, she walked into the interview as if she is wearing a mink jacket. Remember those mink jackets from the 1930’s-40’s era – that actually had mink heads on them? Made me wonder what Ms. Piggy would have thought about this – yikers. Imagine the possibilities though,Lady Gaga could start a spoof of Hermes, and call it “Kermes”.
Amazingly cool! A pocket-sized laser device that emits a full-size functional QWERTY keyboard – that will work on any flat surface. Created by i.Tech, it’s available for wireless or cable.
Coca-Cola is introducing a “fountain of the future” beverage dispenser that contains more than 100 flavours! Read more about this amazing interactive machine here.
