Rubik’s Table
Float è un tavolo composto da 64 cubi legati insieme attraverso fili d’acciaio e mantenuti in equilibrio dalla forza magnetica tanto che sembrano galleggiare uno sopra l’altro.
Il tavolo ricorda, con la sua forma, il mitico cubo di Rubik e può essere ordinato su misura, scegliendo numero e dimensione dei singoli elementi oltre che il rivestimento.
Float è opera dello studio di design newyorchese RockPaperRobot: dallo studio escono anche Brag, un tavolo a forma di diamante, e Gleam, un lampadario in alluminio che si trasforma a seconda della luce presente nell’ambiente.

Chinese Post-Rock from Wang Wen
Wang Wen (惘闻) is a post-rock band from Dalian, China. The five-piece released their fifth album in April and it really jams. You may have already heard of them. In 2008 they began receiving attention internationally and embarked on their first European tour, to promote their fourth album, IV.
The group have just released L&R, their fifth album. It’s an instrumental exploration of noise, ambient guitar, moody melodies and muted drum rhythms that march you through a profound journey of 7 symphonic tracks. You’ll love working to this album.

VR/urban: “SMSlingshot”
The SMS slingshot is a device designed to create digital augmented realities in urban space.
The device is shaped as a wooden slingshot with a build-in mobile phone display, a keypad and a laser. Users can type a text message and shoot it straight at a large facade. A projector pointed at the facade will show the message as a colour splash with the message written within.
The project is designed by VR/URBAN, a group of digital intervention-activists based in Berlin. They will demonstrate the device at various media-festival in the next couple of months. Check their website for dates and technical specs! | via & via

Maquina de la Amistad
Many countries celebrate the day of friendship dates rather different. In Argentina, the Dia del Amigo is traditionally celebrated on July 20.
This type of appointment is always interesting to brands that take the opportunity to implement specific operations. Coca-Cola Argentina is no exception to the rule in his concept of reusing beverage dispenser. Already in use in the United States to highlight the joy in sharing the distributor Coca this time is staged around the concept of friendship and mutual assistance. The agency Ogilvy Argentina has designed a distributor giant whose slot for sliding the currency rises to more than 2 meters. We must therefore help each other to get the “precious beverage. After this effort, the two friends get two bottles for the price of one.
Very specific action, the “Maquina de la Amistad” can once again push Coca sharing his philosophy and good mood to talk to her on the canvas. | via
