Audio Stick 70mb By Alice Wang

alice wang sticks 2.jpg

How will artists release their new albums? Since the arrival of digital music, we found many ways to exchange and stock our music. Alice Wang thought about what the consumers may need, and her audio sticks could be the packing and presentation of what we will buy in a few years. Each stick has the capacity of 70mb, the equivalent of 15 tracks. The audio system’s front panel acts as a stick rack while the top bit is an audio stick plug and play device. The tracks and the volume can be controlled by a slider located on the side.

Tuba By Mathmos

mathmos tuba light.JPG

The Tuba by Mathmos creates the illusion of not really knowing whether the central space has depth or not. What looks like a solid illuminated disc in the centre is actually an open space, a void that is brightly illuminated. Mathmos Tuba actually senses your hand entering this void and changes the color or the current function. Alternatively, the Mathmos Tuba can be set to react to music, cycling through a color changing sequence along with the “beat” or your favorite music.

Pepsi Music Posters

Pepsi deployed a new advertising technique in Toronto and Vancouver subways. When your plug your headphones in these posters, they play music.  A nice way to promote their beverage, but I still prefer my Coke.

Mark DeNardo

Mark Denardo is an awesome musician who incorporates electronic sequences from both his Gameboy and PSP into soulful original folk songs. I’m pretty convinced rock’n'roll bands like ‘The Strokes’ are influenced by these wonderful lo-fi artists who blend regular instruments with electronic sounds.

The Strokes – First Impressions Of Earth

Strokesfirstimpressions We’re big fans of The Strokes at Cubeme so we were very excited to get our hands on The Strokes’ third album, First Impressions of Earth. All I can say is that it lives up to expectations. This album shows maturity, diversity, and you can actually hear Julian Casablancas’ voice. I was impressed by the deepness of “Ize Of The World” and the infectious pop anthem “You Only Live Once”. It’s probably one of the rock best albums of 2006.

He spins, he walks, he even talks and he carries things for you. The Blo-Bot is an extremely cute and chirpy little chap that you will say anything you like. All you have to do is speak into the microphone on his control unit and he’ll repeat whatever you say. You may prefer the company of a parrot though. It’s all about taste.
