Toshio Iwai’s Tenori-On From Yamaha

by Iain on August 24, 2007

Toshio Iwai has made a load of cool audio widgety things. The thing I know best is Electroplankton on the Nintendo DS. But he’s done lots of other stuff too. I’ve just come across his latest device to hit the (…)

I’m Drawn to Nerdy Bag Contents

by Iain on August 24, 2007

I don’t know why, but I really liked looking through this gallery of peoples’ bag contents. Perhaps it’s because they’re all readers of Life Hacker and therefore they tend to be pretty organised and full of interesting gadgets and overly (…)
