Sony roundtable discussion

Some of you might remember that I flew to London in May to participate in a roundtable discussion for Sony Europe. Here are, finally, the videos from our discussion about how technology in the home has changed over the past 50 years; The function of the TV, both in the past as well as in the future; The function of the living room and how the use of that space has changed over time; What the ideal living room looks like; What the future TV will look like.

See more videos from the round table discussion after the jump, or check out Sonys profile on Youtube.

Here are some really nice examples on someone who’ve done just that; the Swedish design studio Amore! Over you see a barcode turned into a rain-cloud that Amore did for a Korean yoghurt brand and if you press more (+) i´ll show you some other great examples well! (more…)

Is this the car of the future…

atnmbl_gallery_driveway…and if so, would it even be considered a car if no one drives it?

Mike and Maaike has designed ATNMBL; a concept vehicle for year 2040 that represents the end of driving and an alternative approach to car design.  The “car” has no steering wheel, brake pedal or driver seat but will instead ask you to type in your destination and it gets you there thanks to sophisticated GPS sensors and a navigation database.

Huge organic shaped screens, soft music and interactive projections on the screens gave the room the sensation of an underwater world. Thanks to advanced projection technology the beautiful jellyfishes would appear on the screens as you got close to it. a collaboration between architect Akihisa Hirata and interactive artist Takahiro Matsuo.
