The Alba Make Art Clocks may get your artwork sold

By Abby McVay on Wednesday, Jun 11th 2008 No Comments

If you’re just itching to get your art out there and on some kind of a product, these little Alba Make Art Clocks are a nice chance. Plus for those without artistic ability you can pick up unique looking clocks without having any artistic skill.

They had already released the clocks with art already on them, but suddenly decided to give other artists a shot. This seems to be a limited release since there are only 25 of the plain white clocks that will be released so you’ll have to get to them quick.

By Chris Davies on Wednesday, Jun 4th 2008 No Comments

Samsung have announced a collaboration with The Thomas Kinkade Company, where the manufacturers high-definition displays will be used for large-scale digital photo frames. Unlike the seven-inch screen flicking through holiday snaps on your desk, the Digital Masterworks Art-TV prototype used a 46-inch 1080p LCD with a 40GB hard-drive. Rather than the traditional plastic or speaker bezel, the panel is surrounded by a Thomas Kinkade picture frame.

Many have heard about the Figureprints that you can enter a chance to win the opportunity to buy a figurine of your favorite WoW character. However, the odds of getting one seem so slim that it might be best to look for an alternative way to turn your character into art.

Designer Jean Louis Frechin showed off these “chronopictographic” digital photo frames at the recent International Milan furniture show.

The laptop, from top to bottom, is covered in wood. Then there is the semi-creepy hemp bag that is either part of the laptops wooden casing or just comes with the laptop, it would be cool either way.

The screen stats are as follows: they are 1080p LCD panels, they come in 46 or 52 inch sizes, and they have a 100MHz refresh rate, HDMI ports, and a color changing logo on the TV. They also come with two remotes, a small pebble-shaped one that does the basics of changing channels and upping the volume, the second is a larger backlit one that controls everything, hence-forth referred to as the Uber-mote.

The Pirate Bay going on the offensive – to countersue IFPI (international version of RIAA)

By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Apr 16th 2008 1 Comment

First of all, I was told I should preface this article with the fact that SlashGear does not condone piracy or any other illegal acts. Now that’s out of the way, let’s get to the real meat of this story. The Pirate Bay is being sued by the IFPI, which is basically the international version of the RIAA, for 1.6 million Euros.

LapStrap – carry your notebook on your shoulder without a case

By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Apr 16th 2008 No Comments

This is quite possibly the dumbest idea I’ve seen in a very, very long time. Essentially what this product suggests is that you lay part of this long ass adjustable strap across your laptop’s keyboard, then close it, and sling it over your shoulder leaving it open to the environment, being banged around, or worse, stolen.

By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Apr 16th 2008 No Comments

I am not entirely sure how this thing works, but apparently the gist of it is soap-less dish washing. Somehow it uses sonic waves of water to remove even the deepest particles of dirt without the slightest amount of soap necessary.

Some guy put together and instructable on how to make an electric mountain board or whatever those off-road versions of skateboards are called. It’s pretty ingenious too taking most of his parts from electric scooters.
