Maharishi's Fall/Winter '05 Promo Shoot
(07 June 2005) - Maharishi just doesn't quit. This time they add a bit of sly wit to fashion photography, dressing Warhol and Basquiat dolls from their 20th Century Artists Series in scale reproductions from their Fall/Winter '05 collection. Inspired by Christopher Makos' gender-bending Warhol photos, Maharishi tapped legendary stylist and friend of Warhol, Isabella Blow, to cross-dress the Warhol doll in the women's line.

Android 8 Store
(25 March 2005) - If you haven’t given Android 8 a peek yet, do so, it’s a must see. It’s a new online store featuring limited edition and designer work by people like Brendan Monroe, Luke Chueh and Rustboy. It’s all run by a very young and entrepreneurial east coaster— and that hits close to home. I love to hear about young folks, like myself, doing what they...

Archimedes: Chia Pet Meets Tamagotchi
(14 February 2005) - Like the Tamagotchi, Archimedes is a little friend from Japan brought to you as a way to care for and consider the meaning of life. Unlike the Tamagotchi, which was digital, Archimedes is analog. You get a little guy in a glass vial with some seeds. Over the course of about a month the habitat will sprout, bloom, flourish, die, and decay. Little Archimedes...

Kozik Smoking Bunny
(07 February 2005) - What is it about cute things being naughty? I'm in love with these Kozik bunnies. Okay, so the one on the left is the Kozik Smoking Bunny, which is available at Toy Tokyo for about $60. If you're unwilling to throw down that amount of money, check out the Smorkin Labbits (right) at Kidrobot. I think I'm gonna build a small army. ...

Tokyoplastic
(02 February 2005) - First off, Tokyoplastic is a slick site. Cute vector design, dramatic sound, carnivorous plants, and robotic segues-- what more could you ask for? I'll tell you what, that the stuff they sell wasn't sold out! They had these vinyl figures of the girl seen above sans drum equipment, but still very rad. And they also had these prints of gore drizzled robots. Alas my...

Pretty Little USB Bug
(18 January 2005) - I have to agree with Joel, this is definitely the most elegant USB drive made so far. It's only USB 1.1 (they slow version) and only holds 256MB, but that's all trumped by the gold lady bug design. For true Geek Chic all you need to do is glue a stick pin to the back of it and wear it on your lapel. via...

David Choe
(13 January 2005) - David Choe can be described simply with two words: pure talent. He has done work for many impressive and interesting clients, such as DC Comics and Toyota. He has designed shoes, t-shirts, toys, books, and even a hotel room in downtown San Francisco. He works with paints--sculpts, draws, works in acrylics, water colors, spraypaint, photos, and anything he can make art out of. His...

Topobo
(02 October 2004) - Hayes Solos Raffle and Amanda J. Parkes are the creators of Topobo, a building kit with kinetic memory. That means the creations remember and playback the way you push and pull them. Build a creature, teach it how to walk, it walks. Taking the ideas behind Legos and Capsela to a new level, Topobo is fun and subversively educational! Currently a project in Hiroshi...

Kidrobot Speakers
(24 August 2004) - I'm over my Harman/Kardon desk speakers. They sound nice, but are really nothing special to look at. Time for a replacement. A pair of these little guys from Kid Robot would do just fine. Too bad the orange ones are already sold out. $99 - $249 at Kid Robot via sensoryimpact...

Ball Droppings
(13 May 2004) - Somehow I missed this when it went around in the beginning of the year. Regardless, it's fantastic. BallDroppings, by Josh Nimoy, is a highly addictive musical play toy based on the simple principles of the original computer game, Pong. By drawing lines you manipulate where dropping balls bounce, and with every bounce a musical note is played. Be sure to check out jtnimoy.com for...

House of Ingri
(26 March 2004) - Ingri turns glum into cute-- in the form of vinyl plush dolls. They are produced by hand taking about 3 hours each, which renders them pretty limited edition. All of the designs on her site, as well as some new ones are available exclusively at Koimarket in Brooklyn. Koimarket and Gallery 125 Havemeyer Street Brooklyn, NY 11211 koimarket@aol.com ...
