iPad Wall Concept Would Make The Library Cool Again
While one iPad might not offer the excitement and innovation that me and the fuhrer were hoping for, an entire wall of iPads could change the way we interface with the very walls that surround us. The iPad Wall concept incorporates multiple iPads into the very fabric of our library’s structure, creating a completely interactive experience you can actually touch. Imagine the possibilities. An interactive learning wall fully capable of multi-touch. Just find a way to hide all of those... Continue reading
Advertising a la Minority Report
Do you remember the scene in Minority Report where Tom Cruise walks into a Gap and is greeted by a holographic female who recommends clothing to him based on facial recognition? I remember thinking how awesome it would be if a hot holographic chick did all my shopping for me so I could just lounge around and stare at girls’ asses. Lucky for us, YCD Multimedia shares the same feelings and is working to bring digital signs to our local... Continue reading
AT&T To Add MMS Feature To iPhone
Someone must’ve turned on the genius machine over at AT&T. Though I’m told AT&T’s customer service representatives aren’t known for delivering on the spot information about up and coming products, word has gotten out that MMS (multimedia messaging service) support is being considered for the iPhone 3G.

Personal Drug Den: $100,000 Plastic Egg
For nearly $100,000, you’d expect one hell of a multimedia experience from a personal multimedia dome. It promises complete isolation, “brown-note bass” to induce shitting and the ability to roll around. You’ll be able to get the interior styled however you like if you’re a leather daddy and can get a video game console installed as well. With a price tag like this, you’re probably better off dropping $1000 for a weekend at the W or a spa. Need complete... Continue reading
DIY: $30,000 Stereo System
Manitoba native Michael Tarasenco built a $50,000 home theater with $30,000 worth of stereo equipment. After many years of being an audio junkie, Michael decided he wanted a theater in his new home. Using no outside labor, the basement was renovated and a theater was built in a 13′ x 28′ area. Watching projected movies on a 92″ retractable Da-Lite screen must be sweet. Couple that with a room modified for great audio and you have quite a multimedia experience... Continue reading
Ori-ori-Moshi-moshi: Flexy Multimedia Device From The FUTURE
If you were to get your hands on a Flux Capacitor and traveled to the year 2014, Marty McFly style, you might see some gadgets that will blow your mind. The Ori-ori-Moshi-moshi device (that name might be hell on its marketing) is a conceptual multimedia device made of a semi-flexible OLED display, which uses an origami-like form factor for pure awesomeness. Just like many dream gadgets from the future, the Ori-ori-Moshi-moshi from AntennaDesign consolidates about every electronic function under the... Continue reading
