Gear4 DUO
This nifty little piece of technology allows you to indulge into music whilst on the go. For any music freak, this iPod dock is an essential to the good life. It has a genuinely innovative approach to music. The novelty comes from the fact that the Gear4 DUO can be physically split into two pieces, with the bulky back left behind and the front acting like a portable stereo speaker system. Black and sleek, it is not only well designed but sounds great. As it’s only meant for domestic enjoyment and outside use, it still retains the quality of high class audio. It also comes with a remote and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, so you can picnic whilst banging your head to Iggy Pop! How cool is that?

One of the most intriguing stories I’ve come across this year is about a young artist called Yonlu, born Vinicius Gageiro Marques in the town of Porto Alegre, in Brazil. His story is short but fascinating. As it goes, this sixteen year old songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and virtual artist locked himself in his bathroom, signed on to one of the various suicide forums he belonged to on the Internet, and took his own life, remaining online until the very end. After his death, his father went through his computer and found numerous musical creations, including the songs that make up his debut album through Luaka Bop. It’s an amazing listen and very ahead of its time.

The Australian film collective behind the sci-fi spoof, The Time That Time Forgot, perfectly capture the look and feel of awkward, low-budget rip-offs from the ’70s — the psychedelic lighting, bad dubbing, and amazing hair. One almost wishes Italian Spiderman was for real. [more about Italian Spiderman]
