Editor’s Note – Tranism Episode 13

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 11:11 AM PDT

I meant to post this Monday but you know a cat gets busy. MEOWWWW. That made no sense. So what? I’m the editor. I do what I want around here. I love you. It’s been cray here at the YD offices. I say offices because we’re located in LA, NYC, TOKYO, VANCOUVER and our newest office in India. YASSS we international! New site coming soon. New developments in our CKIE store. Possibly a collaboration with a manufacturer to launch a contest where one of your designs gets mass produced. Yes, it really is that juicy. On top of all that, I went to a wedding. Hit the jump!

I went back up to my stomping grounds in San Francisco for a friend’s wedding. EVERYBODY is getting married now and I’m still single. I guess playing with futuristic products has its own perks. I’m sure marriage is wonderful but I’m not the marrying type. Fast forward to 5 years later and you see my sashaying down the aisle screaming “I got married y’all!” in episode 122. In the meantime, check out episode 13.

Around the web:

  • The rear of Honda’s Civic Type-R reminds me of an angry samurai.
  • Google officially launches androidTV. Checkmate Apple?
  • Does that mean RIP Google TV?
  • One of my fav minimalist note taking apps for the iPhone isn’t available in the U.S.
  • A teddy bear masquerading as your GF’s vibrator.
  • Next Black, amazing documentary on the future of fashion design.
  • Bye bye Tide sticks, here’s a glove that literally disintegrates any stain.
  • In Japan, news anchors are being replaced by robots and Skynet wins.
  • Fav mens clothing line at the moment.
  • Obsessed with fitness, learn how to get v-cut abs without watching Mike Chang.

Instant Stain Removing

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 09:36 AM PDT

It's the law of attraction: you're having a trashy morning and just when you're heading out the door with a cuppa java on the go… you spill it on your shirt. The only difference this time around is that instead of fretting, you slide on the Electrolux Instant Cleaning Glove and wipe out all traces of that offending coffee stain in a jiffy. The neoprene glove disintegrates any stain or dirt from fabrics using the combination of nanotechnology and ultrasound.

Features:

  • The glove works just with hand gestures.
  • To power it up, you need to close your hand (wearing the glove) and on the LCD screen appears “Please wait to start”.
  • Wireless charging pad to sync and charge.
  • The LCD is a flexible AMOLED screen.
  • The glove's sponges are biodegradable and need to be replaced when worn out.
  • Can be worn on either hand.
  • Instant Cleaning Glove is a part of the 2014 Electrolux Design Lab Competition.

Aroma Bells

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 07:30 AM PDT

Wind Chimes are charming and building upon this idea is the Wind Bell. This digitally enhanced air purifier looks pleasing in the home environment and also comes with an aroma-dispensing feature. I love the simple aesthetics combined with the functionality.

Totes Adorbs Alarm Clock

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 12:01 AM PDT

Following the success of its predecessor, the Felt wall clock, the FeltTwo brings the same simplistic, soft aesthetic to your bedside! With a closer look, you’ll notice a perfect balance of materials in pressed felt and bamboo. Modern touches like laser engraving on the bamboo invoke a sense of fine craftsmanship. It’s sure to make getting up in the morning just a little easier… I mean, who could be mad at that face?!

The Gentle Giant of the Skies

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 12:01 AM PDT

Oscar Viñals’ AWWA-VA “GIGAbay” concept takes green tech to the skies in the form of a giant cargo plane. Its unique oversized, front-loading holding bay is adaptable to a variety of goods including bulk packages and even other aircraft. Its powered by four hybrid engines with supplemental power from superconductive technologies, a fuel cell stack, wind generators and solar energy, making it the eco-friendliest way to fly. Big structure, little impact!

Enlightening Light

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 12:01 AM PDT

If you’re reading this on your computer right now, chances are you AREN’T one of the vast groups of people lacking electricity (and therefore light) in the world. The Infinite Light is for them! Designed as a replacement for dangerous kerosene lamps, it harnesses the suns energy during the day to provide safe light at night. It actually kills two birds with one stone by using a ready-to-use flexible solar panel and battery system that can be placed directly in discarded plastic bottles. Once inside, it’s protected and ready to use for a lifetime.
