Wonderwall: Usually when you think about wallpaper, it conjures up images of your Windows desktop, your aunt's airless living room or a pricey magazine read by people far more wealthy and attractive than you are. Well, blik takes wallpaper in a whole other direction with self-adhesive, removable vinyl wall graphics that are kind of a kissing-cousin to those "NO FEAR" things clinging to your Laval cousin's Civic. You can get graphic elements, words and even scary robots. Perfect for decorating your parents to an early grave at www.whatisblik.com. Garbagetron: You don't need a lot of money or technical know-how to have your own home arcade machine. You just need a lot of garbage, a few hours and very understanding roommates. Trashcade is a set of plans for turning a pile of old boxes and a disused computer into a functional and ugly arcade game. You'll need a knife, some tape and an old desk lamp to complete the effect at www.ugiansky.com/trashcade/. Comments? Michael Citrome |
