We Can Print On Meat Now

print-on-meat

To help promote IDEO’s WebDev101 sessions, Digital Chops, and to further prove that there’s nothing that meat can’t do — industrial designer Ivy Hu laser-etched type right on a raw chop. The printed meat eventually became the poster for the event.

So, is meat-printing a viable new medium? Will it be used to print nutritional information right on the product, or used for advertisements? Or, will we just use the technology to send condescending messages to vegetarians?

The iFlask Is Here To Help

iflask

When you absolutely positively need to drink in public, and have the pocket space for two phones — the iFlask is here to help. The handy booze vessel is designed to look like your iPhone, so you can drink indiscreetly almost anywhere.

Whether at a concert, in the boardroom, or at church — you’ll probably get away with your public drinking. That is until everyone starts to wonder why you’re sucking your phone. Nevertheless, the iFlask is now available here.

How To Turn an Empty Pizza Box Into a Laptop Stand

Pizza boxes are an under-appreciated marvel of engineering, but an empty one takes up so much space in your recycling bin. Unless of course you find a more creative way to repurpose the now useless vessel.

Brought to us by Russian artist Ilya Andreev, The Pizza Box Laptop Stand is the perfect way to get the former pie holder back in action. And, think of all the space you’ll save on recycling day… Unless you’re throwing out a few less cool laptop stands.

See more about the project here.
