Eco Hack - Eco-friendly Chair pumps itself by walking!

A Korean-born designer has designed what seems like “air bubble” chair that pumps itself when you walk.
I think this is a really great idea for concerts and outdoor events where people have to stand constantly.
For example, it would be great to have this while watching Tiger Woods play in a real PGA Tournament, you’d have a chair for every hole you are at. (or wherever you are at)
Just don’t take the bus with the chair inflated, make sure to deflate the thing first.
Artist and interactive designer, JooYoun Paek takes the cake on that front with her recently revealed Self-Sustainable Chair, a wearable piece of furniture which is a dress where the butt inflates into a chair through pumps in the shoes. Paek hopes the provocative art piece will “transform the humdrum experiences produced by routine walking commutes into an amusing interactive performance.” Featured at this weekend’s Conflux Festival, her quirky and intriguing project suggests that rest and walk can be balanced by re-thinking the function of what we wear.
Butt Station Desk Organizer!

Butt Station Desk Organizer!
For organizing your unorganized desk, you might want to give this “Butt Station” a try as it can hold some pens, Post Its, a roll of 3M tape, and of course, anything metal would stick on the butt.
It’s a desktop organizer that looks like a fellow sitting on the john. Besides the spaces to hold pens and Post-it Notes, the figure holds adhesive tape in his hands as if it were a roll of toilet paper.

This RC stingray has to be one of the most innovative yet disturbing radio controlled toys ever.
Heck, it doesn’t even look like a stingray to me, maybe a badly designed airplane with its wings shoved up its butt.
Air Conditioning Add-on for your Chair!

Oh my God! I saw this and told myself this is exactly what I’ve needed for years! It’s an air conditioning add-on for your shair so you can cool your butt while you work, drive, etc…etc…
It seems like it’s only available in Japan right now, maybe I get a couple next time I head over to Japan. (I’ve only been to the Narita Airport so we will see…)
Kuchofuku has developed Suzukaze air conditioned seat cushion as its newest product. Kuchofuku located in Japan is famous for developing air conditioned clothing that uses almost no energy. Humans generate sweat to regulate body temperature, and the new air conditioned cushion uses this inherent body temperature regulation function and the minimal amount of energy necessary to power a fan in order to provide the ideal cooling level for humans. When the small fan built into the cushion rotates, over 170 liters of air per minute is sent into the cushion, thus dissipating the heat and moisture accumulated around the buttocks.

Did we say “Bat Mobile” with a jet engine? Well the jet engines seems to do nothing more but bust out some flames but still kudos for tryin’.
This crazy, crazy “Flatmobile” is going to enter the Guinness books as the flattest vehicle ever. How flat is it? Nineteen inches. I think that’s about how flat we’d be if we laid on our backs (depending on what’s on our minds and what we ate for lunch). Not only is this Batmobile-like contraption dangerous, it’s extremely dangerous—creator Perry Watkins shoved a gas turbine jet engine on the butt.

Live coverage from Sony’s CES press conference at Engadget

The greatest part about NOT going to CES this year? I get to sit on my butt and read all these tech blog write about them. Well, it’s good that I am acting sorta as a “human filter” to filter out all the crappy stuff and post the best on Zedomax.
Anyways, you can get a really good overview of Sony’s CES press conference over at Engadget. I think this is one of the longest Engadget posts I’ve seen in awhile.
Here’s an excerpt from the blog post:
4:53PM - Talking about the exit from microprojection, and focusing on flat-panel. “According to NPD, Sony was the leader in market leader in dollars and units — even with the highest average selling price.” Wait, is this guy calling his customers suckers? Two new models: 40 and 46-inch, as well as the 32 and 37-inch 1080p models with DMex. “Ten of these new sets will be full HD 1080p — which as you’ll remember Sony created and popularized years ago.” No, Sony, no. You didn’t “invent” 1080p HDTV. Nice try.
I agree, Sony does suck at trying to sell itself…
