Transformer Film Camera

If you are of a certain age you will recognize this product as a 35mm film canister, but you may not notice that it is also a camera. That’s right, hidden inside this oversized film canister is a 35mm camera, not a digital camera. The camera is a tiny point and shoot that pops open to reveal the lens, flash and film holder inside. the design revives the iconic film canister graphics of the past, giving the camera a nostalgic feeling for those old enough to remember the pre-digital era. the camera’s controls are located on the side and the top
twists to advance the film. The camera also comes in an even more unusual disguise, a coffee canister. See for yourself here.

Joy Diversion

I know this pic has been posted about a bit over the past few weeks or so. But I happened to walk past it in on my way to Northern Digitals the other day and it got me thinking about the art of graffiti.

 When done cleverly, with a bit of wit and a tongue firmly in cheek then it can be really succesful and form a sort of landmark, such as works from Banksy etc, and contribute to an area. Done badly and it does exactly the opposite and starts what can be a downward cycle of vandalism and neglect.

 Whether good or bad, the result often outlives the period in which the graffiti remains and certainly the brief moment of inspiration from the artist or vandal.

 Anyway this bit of marker fun made me smile.

A little bling for your drizzank….

Just come across these and I think I need them in my life!  At the weekend I always feel my drink could benefit from a bit more booooom, and these can certainly do that.

Serioulsy cool (excuse the pun, not intentional!)

Hip Hopsicles

Back in the day, when you wanted to get your gin and juice frosty you had to reach for some tired-ass ice cubes. Cubes are played out straight up wack. If you want to get your party crack-a-lackin' you're going to want to bring the noise with these Hip Hopsicle beverage chillers.

 

Four throwback shapes: microphones, boomboxes, turntables, and a little bling for your drizzank.
