Concept camera / phone

http://www.artefactgroup.com/wvil/  I want one! It's only a concept but it looks sexy and delivers full SLR optics to a mobile smart phone. The lens detaches when not in use before you ask. It also would be expandable through different apps the same way smart phones are and you can share images you take instantly. Quite simply it's where camera's should be going and I haven't even mentioned that the camera still takes pictures with the lens detached by linking wirelessly.

Teaser of Daft Punk's Tron Legacy soundtrack

I don't know if I've mentioned it already but Daft Punk are scoring the Tron Legacy film and you can here a 6 minute teaser here: http://www.waltdisneystudiosawards.com/tronlegacy/music.php
Some of it's actually quite orchestral rather than digital. "The duo assembled a symphony of eighty-five world-class musicians in London and recorded the orchestra at AIR Lyndhurst Studios, Britain's premier scoring facility." Which also might explain this:

iPad Djay

Ooh I love the idea of this app for the iPad. Maybe I should get one after all? Djay on the iPad obviously has it's flaws compared to a multi sound-carded Mac; being able to play music from different channels being the main one. But audio beatmatching aside I still think this is great and the auto beat-matching feature makes it great for novices like myself.

iPod nano watch

At first glance you'd be forgiven in thinking that this idea is a bit shit. But the idea that a watch is also an iPod, Multi-Touch, color display, long battery life, MP3, radio, photos, pedometer and Nike+ is quite cool. I love my iPhone but it's a bit of a pain holding on to whilst running unless you get one of thos stupid armbands. And you'll never be stuck without music. And it comes in red too! If you want one pop over to kickstarter.

Tee Synth


Today I put on my synth Tee which has various Moogs, Korgs and the like. It looks cool (I think) but none of them actually work. Never fear ThinkGeek has the solution; a wearable synth and amp. Genius. Dry ice optional. More at Engadget.
