Cool Sculpted Wooden Desk by Ritter Furniture

May 13, 2008

This is the Writing Desk by Ritter Furniture: Pearwood and black-walnut constructed in curvalinear frame and panel. I can’t give you the cost of this fine piece because the website makes you login to view pricing on all the items. Weak. But check this out and lots of other cool stuff (sans prices) here.

Christiaan Postma Clock - Crazy Designer Time Keeper

May 2, 2008

Introducing a Christiaan Postma original: the ‘Christiaan Postma Clock’

Composed of more than 150 individual clocks mounted to a 140 cm x 140 cm panel, hour and minute dials are clustered in a seemingly haphazard pattern. In actuality, the groupings have been meticulously arranged and the times coordinated so that when the time is say, twelve o’ clock, a cluster of individual clocks at the top of the panel spell the word twelve. These groupings have been laid out to recreate the twelve hours of an analog clock. What happens when it’s 3:30? Well, as three begins to pass into four, the former starts to disintegrate into illegible lines, while the latter starts to take the shape of an actual word, in this case, four. It’s an engaging representation of the ephemeral quality of time, and a slow reminder of its inevitable passage.

Star Trek Stuff! Movie Props and eBay Auctions.

March 27, 2008

Check out this cool Star Trek stuff from itsawraphollywood.com. Everything sold by this store are props and have been featured in movies or tv shows. I have chosen a Klingon Emblem Sconce featured on the Star Trek: Enterprise episode “Borderland” on the stolen Klingon starship. And a pair of Romulan Senate stools that were used in the feature film Star Trek X: Nemesis. Every item comes with certificate of authenticity. The Klingon emblem and Romulan stools wont last long, so act fast! But there is always new stuff being sold, so check it out.

Yeah, thats pretty much it… Rocks with felt on them. Actually, I’m not sure if they are rocks with felt on them or if they are entirely made from felt. You can buy one for $12 and find out, and then tell us.

They are handmade in South Africa by women in a job creation program. Size is approx. 2.5″ L.

Buy here, weirdo.
