Cool Stuff

So, I’m taking a break from my thesis writing to run through my RSS Reader. Thus, I have entitled this post, “Cool Stuff.”

Reveal Watch




















































This is the “Reveal” watch by Daniel Will Harris (via Yanko Design). I have a thing for watches, and this is definitely one that I could rock. In addition to great design, it’s tagged as “time is always in the present. This timekeeper reveals the current time through a looking glass while fading the past and the future. If you are a person of the present, this watch is made specifically for you.” If you don’t like that concept, you’re probably really boring.

past-present-future-stainless-band




















































Similar to the “Reveal” the “Past-Present-Future” watch by Daniel Will Harris is equally aesthetically pleasing and functionally cool. Reference previous discussion of liking cool concepts.

rack_base




















































This is a magnetic spice rack from Zevro. I love the idea of having a magnetic spice rack to organize my kitchen. Not my current kitchen, but eventually.

25togo-cityrain_1base




















































City Rain Concrete glass is awesome looking, and apparently there is some science involved. That’s pretty cool.

Chair/Bookshelf. Enough said. Anybody have $745?

sxsw_logo

































SXSW Festival organizers in Austin are releasing a Torrent with music from all the bands performing this spring. Clearly makes the cut of cool stuff.

public-data





















Google has released a tool for visualizing large sets of public data (essentially a static GIS client, only way more user friendly). As a proficient “GIS-er” this could have a pretty large impact on how we visualize data and data sets (Planners and Geographers take note).

Iron Man 2 Trailer is up on youtube. Looks pretty baller.

This has been an installment of Adam Runner’s “Cool Stuff.” Back to the grindstone.
