Sometimes they can be funny, sometimes thought provoking, other times they just mess with your mind. They’ll always take your breath away though and make you wonder at the skills of the people that created them. The following images are myfavourite Photoshopped images. If you’ve seen better I’d love to hear from you.

Qrio by Sony

the craze with Japanese people is that they want to build a real Gundam, they are still a little far from achieving that dream but one can never underestimate them.

What's sure is that the Qrio by Sony is pretty entertaining and it can compete with Honda’s Asimo.

The Lego MP3 player...

Sooner or later, someone should have thought about this… These LEGO-like media players are quite tiny and compact: their controls are maybe not so “user friendly” since you have to push the small raised dots on the surface of each block. The players come in a variety of bold colors and each one has a built-in rechargeable Li-ion battery (= about 6 hours of play time). MicroSD card for storage (2GB max) is required.

FROZEN SMILES- not your grandfather's ice tray

All of a sudden, dentures aren’t just for Grandpa anymore!
Freeze up a batch of Frozen Smiles and drop them into

Mr Burns is watching over you...

Sure, there are way, way, way too many Simpsons licensed products out there, but this one seems like a cut above the rest. It's a webcam shaped like Mr. Burns!

In addition to looking like Mr. Burns sitting at his desk (accompanied by Bobo, his stuffed bear), it's got a handy clip for hooking on to the top of your monitor. It is a pretty standard webcam. But it looks like Mr. Burns! can you resist?

Casulo, the mobile bedroom on wheels...living in a BOX

Everything is more convenient when delivered in an all-inclusive box. The Happy Meal by McDonalds, the iPhone, and now a bedroom. The “Casulo” by designers Marcel Krings and Sebastian Mühlhäuser is a neatly packed box with an entire bedroom suiteready to go. No tools needed and minor assembly required for this IKEA worthy design. The use of styrofoam packing materials has been completely eliminated making this (unofficially) a “Green” product by design. My knee-jerk reaction upon seeing this impressive packing job, had me imagining Wile E. Coyote ordering an entire bedroom from ACME in another misguided attempt to lure the Roadrunner into a trap.

Considering that our society is becoming more and more mobile as a result of a fluctuating job market one must ask what the necessities are for people on the move and how their furniture should be designed. Flexibility and mobility have become key concepts of today’s working world and yet we continue to create our own barriers to our success and mobility. We take on obligations and responsibilities and obtain house goods far beyond what we really need. When it comes time to move we are aware of the burden of our increasing accumulations. We must overcome our fundamental ideas of consuming so that we can move and change. A change from our accustomed style of life to a more mobile one will mean overcoming our desire to accumulate goods and possessions. At first glance the mew mobility may seem restrictive and over economical yet the future generation will take the new style of life for granted and appreciate even more the increase in mobility, freedom and flexibility. Moving house is always a strain, a burden of time and expense. Even with several helpers the timing and planning, the transport and reassembly of the furniture is a strong man act.
The concept of the CASULO employs the preexisting transportation system and is ideal for short term, spontaneous changes of residence. CASULO does away with the problem of temporary furniture rentals and offers a winning solution to all
