Amazing Cool Barcode

What’s in a barcode? More than you might imagine, when idealized through the eyes of some very creative Japanese artists.

You will be amazed at what can be done with a few straight lines and a push to think outside of a very ordinary box.

UPC symbols are ubiquitous and constant reminders that we are a civilization of consumers. Up until now, there was no distinguishing one from the other.

That’s all changed since a Japanese company named D-Barcode came up with some very creative and innovative ideas on how to make these uninteresting lines actually enjoyable to look upon.

It is said that barcodes are the bane of the modern graphic designer. Many distribution people compound the headache by insisting on conspicuous white rectangles, which may or may not fit the context involved. The changes are little and subtle, and yet at the same time, enormous.

Now picking up a bottle or box at the supermarket may bring a smile to your face, not because of a price reduction but rather form a funny unexpected face or form smiling back at you from the label on the back of the package.
This enhancement of the consumer experience is brilliant on many levels. But why keep talking? Check out these cool barcodes and judge for yourself!

If somehow you are a googleians or Google robots crawling to this site. Damn...we are all envy you playground! hahaha...

Lighting Tea Bag

Surely you caffeine addicts will agree, coffee truly is the sexually oriented drink - It picks you up! It illuminates your world, if I may say so. Designer / Bookmark Maker Wonsik Chae takes this concept to an elegant level by making the drop-in tea bag light up your environment chemically. For those whose eyes are sensitive to brightness in the mornings, I recommend a different cup. For those who love lamp(s), drop it!

As the tea bag empties its taste into a tea cup, so does the “Lighting Bag” empty its light into any fluid-holding container. What Wonsik hopes to accomplish with this project is to tear down the idea that creating forms from which light can be projected must be a difficult task - he wants light forms to flow easily.

Having a manifesto for your industrial design project can be a dangerous rope to walk - what do you make of Wonsik’s liquid light concept?

Booze Shot Gun

The Shot-Gun is by far the most delicious way to get shot. Because, instead of lead, it fills you with booze! And booze, my friends, makes the world go around. Or at least the room. Whee, I'm on a carousel!

"Armed with the Alcohol Shot Gun, you can re-enact the most memorable movie scenes from "Dirty Harry" to "Matrix". "Do you feel lucky, sucker" is the only question? Pour in an ounce of your favorite drink into the cartridge, cock the trigger, point and shoot."

Call me crazy, but I want one. PEW! I feel better already. PEW! Mmmm, so warm in my belly. PEW PEW! I think that gfirl is lwooking at me. PEW PEW! i called her ugly a whorew . PEW PE? WHO ASE YOU CLALING DRUNK! Oh, ohs no -- PEW PEWK! PEEEEEWWWWWWK! ack, IthInk i popped A BLOODVESSEL in my eye. ugh. PEW! Oh yeah, that's the stuff.

Amazing Glass Harp

I just got into Metacafe and found out this amazing skill video about a person who is doing a glass harp. It's just amazing when he play the harmony, from one octave to another. The way he dedicated his life to learn to play this instrument. I love this video since he also play the 'Joyful Joyful' song, although it's not Christmas, I think his music brings tranquility to us. Well, who knows if there are some record companies interested to make an instrument album. Hm....=) Good Job, keep up the good work!

Amazing Glass ! - More amazing video clips are a click away

How Tall Are You Mirror

Are you mini like Kylie? Or a mountain like Hulk Hogan? Measuring your height with numbers is so last decade, we all gauge our heights by celebrity now darling. This tongue-in-cheek mirror lists 120 celebrities by height and guarantees to have people loitering in front of it trying to make themselves more James Dean instead of Ben Stiller.

"Come in" / "Go away" Doormat

This mind boggling doormat reads differently depending whether you are walking in or out of the house.

It's got to be seen to be believed but from one side this really does read "Come In" and from the other "Go Away". And when you have finished marvelling at this remarkable feat of graphic design you can wipe the mud from your boots too!!

500XL Earbud, The BIGGER The Better!

Awesome good looking design, great creative idea to bring this one up. If I see it, I will definitely buy it as it really looks like an earbud/earphone for iPod but hey...watch closely. It is claimed 500 times bigger than the original earbud size.

These so-called earbuds are compatible with your PC, PMP, CD and MP3 player. Since it comes with a 3.5 mm audio input cable, a USB DC power cable and a built-in amp, the speaker system can be used with a variety of gadgets. By the way, it can be powered either by the included USB cable or three AAA batteries. We guess you can also plug it into the wall to a generic power supply.

About the sound quality, hmmm...still don't know yet. Try to put it inside your ears. =)

Evolution of Dance 1 & 2

Evolution of Dance, a toe-tapping journey through the history of dancing styles, is one of the most popular YouTube videos of all time, second only to Avril Lavigne’s “Girlfriend” music video. But how do you make money off more than 109 million views?

Judson Laipply, the motivational speaker/comedian and dynamic dancer behind the original Evolution of Dance, is trying to figure that out, with today’s release of Evolution of Dance 2.

Debuting on The Today Show, the new video is an awful lot like the old one, with Laipply dancing in his trademark Orange Crush shirt before a live college audience — just with new, licensed songs (Fergie’s “London Bridge” among them). Laipply couldn’t include advertising in the original video because the songs weren’t licensed, although they were a part of motivational speaking routine about life, change and how dance styles evolve through the decades.

The licensing for the new video wasn’t cheap, but it means Laipply could bring on some advertisers without attracting the recording industry’s ire. Evolution of Dance 2 (EOD2) has two sponsors: PeopleJam, a self-improvement and advice site and Saveology, a comparison shopping site that helps consumers find the best values online.

The chief executive of PeopleJam snagged the chance to plan and release EOD2 because he saw the video’s mission in line with the company as a resource for self-improvement. A few weeks ago, Evolution of You was launched as an interactive application (like OfficeMax’s Elf Yourself), allowing users to upload a picture of your head or someone else’s to dance along with Laipply. However, there is heavy promotion of PeopleJam and Saveology in the video everywhere, which could be a turn-off to fans of the original video. Fortunately the logos have been removed for the official Evolution of Dance 2 video.

There are even promotions tied in with the release of the Evolution of Dance sequel: an IBeatYou dance-off with a $5,000 prize and a sweepstakes to win a smart car. EOD2 isn’t even hosted on Laipply’s YouTube channel, but one controlled by PeopleJam, which makes it definitely feel more commercial than the original. While longtime fans of Laipply and the original Evolution of Dance may love the sequel anyway, it’s interesting how these sponsorships and promotions can change the tone of what began as a user-created video (the majority of videos on YouTube). Laipply attributes some of the success of the original video to the fact that it wasn’t overly slick and professional, and says that he intentionally chose to cut scenes and replicate a grainier look for the sequel, even though it was shot with multiple cameras (one of them being in HD) — “I think that is really important. Especially from user-generated content, people don’t want overproduced-looking videos.”
