Anything to declare? Satirical luggage.

valises

Very clever French designer Pink Wolf has made a series of suitcases that look like they’re carrying illegal items such as guns, knives and even an axe. Carrying one of these will definitely make your plane trip one to remember, unless of course you happen to be lucky enough to deal with that most elusive of creatures – airport security with a brain cell and a sense of humour.

I found this on Neatorama.

The Definitive Guide To Steampunk Gadgets

Steampunk came to prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s and marries modern microchip and LCD technology with mahogany, brass, and steam power from the 19th Victorian era to produce some truly amazing gadgets.

Brass and Marble LCD

A mod by Datamancer this 22″ widescreen LCD has a frame that is solid 1/4-inch brass with the base of brass and black marble. A small brass “cord catch” keep the power and data cords tidy.

Soviet Gas Mask

Created by bob_basset, this Soviet gas mask is made from leather and brass.

The Villanizer

Built by Thunder Eagle Guitars, The Villanizer uses copper piping, an oil gauge, and many gears to capture the Steampunk look.

More Steampunk goodness can be seen at Gizmotron.

Timeless Garden: Tells Time, Powered by Mud

It’s estimated that of the 50-million batteries used every year in South Africa, 95% is the non-rechargeable throw-away kind. That make up 2500 tonnes ending up in our landfills, corroding and exposing harmful chemicals into the environment. So it’s always refreshing to find electronic gadgets are designed with green in mind, even if the idea is more symbolic that anything else.

Designed by Francesco Castiglione and Tommaso Ceschi, Timeless Garden is a combination of a house plant and a clock. You plant your favourite herb or grass in the device, and the chemical reaction between the mud used for the plantation and the metal in the device creates enough electricity to sustain the clock. The body of the clock is made from recycled plastic. Too small to be significant, the grass will also extract a tiny amount of carbon from the air and release an equally small amount of oxygen.

Cross Stitch Just (Un)Like Granma’s

I haven’t even thought about cross stitch since I was forced to do it in home economics class in grade 5. It was torture – stitching horrible little patterns and flowers on to something that was supposed to make a bag for me to keep (you guessed it) cross stitch needles and stuff in – Super yay!

However I came across something on Neatorama that has changed my mind. There’s this cool chick called Shanna from Minneapolis, USA, and she does the kind of cross stitch I can appreciate.
