We love to use, look at and read about technology, and we also get excited at interesting, innovative and just downright unique ways of using old tech – so take a look at Neatorama’s Recycled Keyboard Clutch bag ($37.95), made out of (you guessed it) old keyboards. This eco-friendly attempt at creating the perfect clutch bag for the gadget geek is actually assembled using recycled keyboard. The bag has a zippered top, a handloop abd a denim interior. It is made using approximately 210 (count ‘em) black keyboard keys per bag and ships inside a week. Beyond the clutch bag, Neatorama also offers…

The iPad has been dubbed as a device for content consumption and not creation, but one person wasn’t willing to live with that. Adam Kumpf went as far to actually create his own stylus for the iPad so he could better interact with art-focused applications on the iPad. It works too. The stylus was created by using materials like conductive foams, fabrics and some everyday items including an anti-static sock and pencil. Patience helps as well. As can be seen in the video above, it actually seems to work flawlessly, and it looks like fun too. Maybe this could serve as a legitimate replacement for those…

The only galleries or exhibits I’ve ever attended have been mostly made up of large scale displays and traditional art. When I came across these unique pieces by Japanese designer, Nendo, I was instantly intrigued by them. Pictured above are some of the simplest, but most interesting paperweights that I’ve ever come across. Representing a period, comma and a quote, these weights were made with Takada Seisukajuo – a firm in Japan which specializes in aluminum casting. These pieces are made to represent forms of punctuation and can be used to separate work into different categories: the period…

Is it art? Is it science? Is it pointless? We don’t care! We just think it’s freaking cool! It’s a “Rotating Kitchen”, and it was the vision of Zeger Reyers, a Dutch artist. You’ll want to check out the video for this to make any sense, but, essentially, the exhibit starts off with a cut-out kitchen — dressed up with all the typical kitchen furnishings —that slowly begins to rotate, and as the rotation increases, the carnage does so as well. It starts off slow, but the mesmerizing details are there to be viewed. This little display took place in Germany’s Kunsthalle Düsseldorf. Unfortunately,…

Not to come off as a robotics nut, but I’m not letting this one get away and sleeping comfortably tonight. I’m just not. This is amazing, much to my own chagrin. This robot knows how to draw. And I don’t mean it’s a glorified printer – it actually knows how to draw. Patrick Tesset and Frederic Fol have been developing the Aikon Project over the last six years, the aim of which is to give a robot the soul of an artist – complete with style, interpretation, and aesthetic judgment. The more Aikon II draws, the more it learns, and the more it can artistically extrapolate.
 And the more it can eventually…

For those who are less fortunate with regards to body function, doing something they love poses challenges. Consider Tony Quan, a graffiti artist based in Los Angeles, who lost movement of virtually all muscles in his body except his eyes. For him, drawing graffiti became impossible. That is, until EyeWriter came along. …
