Return of the console television

This week, Ikea announced that it will be selling a new television with an attached cabinet that has DVD and BlueRay players and stereo speakers built into it. It’s called the Uppleva:

The purpose of the Uppleva is to get rid of the cable mess and lack of visual uniformity that often comes with televisions and components today. The cabinet also can be configured to include additional space for more components, like a digital cable box. And, it comes with a universal remote.

The new television has been referred to as “groundbreaking” and an “amazing all-in-one television” since the announcement, but I’m going to shy away from both of those phrases. To me, it’s simply the reintroduction of the console television with modern components. It’s attractive and effectively hides all the cable mess and visual distractions. It’s certainly an uncluttered entertainment center and it’s nice to see companies creating streamlined products.

According to Reuters, the system will be “in five European cities in June, throughout seven European countries this autumn, and in its remaining markets [such as the USA] in the summer of 2013.” The electronics were designed specifically for Ikea by China’s TCL Multimedia Technology Holdings (they create the brands TCL, ROWA, Thomson, and RCA). Prices for the Uppleva system have not yet been announced.

What do you think of the Uppleva?

More Unintended (Potential) Side Effects of Technology: Google Glasses + Battlefield Fanatics

0projectglass_1.jpg

In the few weeks since Google announced their Project Glass, you’ve undoubtedly seen the spoof videos that popped up cynically assuming the product would be overtaken by ads. What you probably haven’t seen is this rather unexpected (and entirely speculative) take on what Project Glass could bring. (Warning: If you have never played Battlefield, and/or are not a 16-to-40-year-old male, you may find this video a tad violent for your tastes.)

Joe Diemer on "The Painless Appeal of Stainless Steel" – Hand-Eye Supply Curiosity Club Tonite!

APR1712_Image_01.jpeg

Join us Tonight at Hand-Eye Supply, in lovely downtown Portland, Oregon, as fine metalworker Joe Diemer leads us in an examination of the beguiling history and material facts of Stainless Steel!

Stainless steel is now 100 years old, and has many industrial accomplishments under its belt due to its strength, beauty, and stainlessness. Yet it remains an elusive medium to many artisans because of perceived challenges (such as the cost and skill of TIG welding). This is a shame since it pairs so well with glass, wood, and textiles – and is truly beautiful on its own.

Many of these challenges have simple but hard to find answers, and I will share what I have found. We’ll look at simpler pre-WW2 welding methods, discuss local suppliers, and have a demo on electropolishing: a fast method of polishing involving electricity running through acid. There will also be trivia prizes of my household wire goods.

Not in the greater Portland area? No problem! Join us live on our broadcast channel – the show begins at 6pm Pacific.
