Nano-Tech Aqua Dance Game

by Matthew on June 9, 2009

aqua dance game Nano Tech Aqua Dance GameThe Aqua Dance Game uses nano-technology to create hyper-beading water particles. What you do is fill up the tank with regular water, push a pump a few times to pressurise the water. You then turn a lever underneath that controls the size and speed of the water beads and then sit back and watch the crazy water bounce off the nano-tech surface which causes the hyper-bead to happen.

With the reduced friction the natural surface tension of the water takes over to create some unusual liquid dynamics. You’ll find beautiful patterns in the water that are different each time. The ridges and funnels on the surface scatter the water in unpredictable ways as it zooms like quicksilver to the bottom.

remote gift tin TV Remote Glasses TinThis remote control is a rather unique gift idea in that it’s a glasses tin disguised as a remote control. As Nerdapproved put it, “They will probably think that the remote is just the first part of an awesome two part gift, but once they find out it is just a tin they will have to content themselves with whatever is inside, be that expensive jewelry or bacon gumballs.”

Yep, a crazy gift idea but I guess someone will want to buy them :) The tin is available in the UK costing £3 (product page).



Lego Sunglasses – Crazy?

Lego Sunglasses – Crazy?

I’m not quite 100% convinced with this pair of sunglasses. They feature Lego arms which allow you to connect up Lego bricks of any variety to them. Weather it be blocks, Lego men, Lego Space, Lego whatever you can connect it up and for the seriously adverturous you could make a whole helmet to wrap around your head.

My thoughts are now that it falls in to the crazy category. The Lego sunglasses are designed and built by a French optical company named Lynx Optique.
