Beautiful Wooden Bikes..

golgo73 — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 05:10:46 +0000

The hand-built WRD-11 mahoganny bike built by Sueshiro Sano has got to be the most beautiful.. flowing.. and well engineered bicycle in the wood bicycle category..

Not only is it made with more wood than other wooden bikes I’ve seen (including mahogany saddle rails.. seat.. handle bars.. and even rims).. It is so customized.. that because the seat post/tube is one piece (for frame strength/durability).. it needs to be measured and built according to your proper body dimensions.. No adjustments if you decide to shrink or grow..

Check out this sweet project.. It’s called the Dot by Kogeto.. a fully portable 360 degree video capture attachment for your iPhone 4.. Clip it on.. record your video.. play it back with full interactivity.. enabling your to check what’s going on in any circular direction real-time.. Nice..

Check video samples taken with the Dot on the Kogeto website..

Ballpoint Pen Tattoos..

Shohei Otomo is an amazing and very talented artist.. I love how he mixes the styles of traditional Japanese art.. with Japanese comic book art (manga).. along with a dollop of art noir..

But what a lot of folks don’t know.. is that this guy uses a ballpoint pen to “ink” his subjects.. Check out this video of Shohei Otomo in action..

This VW Gets You 313 MPG..

Via Auto Express..

The Volkswagen XL1.. the company’s third generation high efficiency vehicle.. now brings you over 300 miles per gallon..

Even with a standard/wider side by side seating configuration (versus predecessors’ narrower jet-fighter fore and aft seating).. It manages to stay slippy by staying nice and low to the ground..

Combine this with lightweight materials.. Airstream management.. And a diesel/electric powerplant.. And you get the magic mileage numbers..

Will this car or a near variant hit our roads soon? I’m hoping sooner.. Than later..

Here is some more info on the XL1..

iPad Gets a Major Hook Up..

A docking station for the iPad is now available.. You can now connect your iPad to a variety of outputs rather than just via the standard 1/8″ port..

Mix this Alesis Studio Dock with Algoriddim’s djay app.. and you’ve got a party..

Aquarium of Endor..

Wow long gap since last posting.. My apologies..

Anyways.. Was over at Flynamic’s place the other day.. And we discussed how long it’s been since I last wrote in my blog.. So I thought it was fitting that I re-started with something I saw over at his place.. It’s an aquarium with a Forest of Endor diorama..

I like the artistic versus utilitarian nature of the 20 hangers wardrobe.. Hung in a corner.. you can change the look and feel by changing what you hang on it.. Hangdy..
