Dive deep.. and discover new creatures of sound.. as you explore with one of my favorite DJs Amon Tobin.. When you encounter a creature.. Sample the types of sound they make.. And see how they create music when mixed together.. Make sure you have your speakers on and volume high!!!.. Awesome interface that gets you immersed visually and accoustically.. His new album Foley Room will be out on 3.5.2007..

Via Core77..
This new water vehicle called the Front Runner designed by Joey Ruiter.. is a hydrofoil that uses two forward mounted jet-drive motors.. This design allows the boat to be used in very shallow water.. Kinda reminds me a lot of the Pod Racers from Star Wars Episode I.. Looks like a lot of fun.. May the force be with you..

And rotate jog wheel clockwise/counter-clockwise to move backward/forward/scroll up/down etc.. Comes with USB wireless receiver that also acts as a charger..

If regular point and shoot digital cameras aren't your thing.. And neither are the super complex and noisy digital SLRs.. Then you might consider getting yourself a Leica M8.. Classic Leica look and feel.. Uses a low noise CCD sensor (10.3megapixels) in combination with a ultra fast slotted shutter (no clickety-clak from the mirror of an SLR).. This camera keeps things as simple as possible.. For example.. no auto-focus (no gears whining) and simple logical controls.. Use your own powers to make the camera work for you.. And not the other way around..

Leica : digital M8..
