WVIL (Wireless Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens) camera is an amazing concept camera that was envisioned by Artefact design team. This camera features a detachable high quality lens that you can wirelessly control with a touchscreen. It takes the connectivity and applications of modern smart phones and connect them with interchangeable DSLR quality optics. This camera will allow users to experience photography with new choices in different angles. I would definitely get one of these especially because the user interface that was shown in the video below looks innovative. It also looks to have a clear and easy to use navigate system. Would you get one of these?

Playlist-25 is here for your listening pleasure. Just press play and enjoy some nostalgic 90's hip hop, electronic remixes and some indie styles. In this month Playlist I added some tracks that are available to download for free. I added The Bear and The Sea Remix of a Common Sense track. I also added two RAC remixes as well. RAC has been showcased in a couple of playlist already but he just seems to keep putting out great tracks. I got both tracks from his RAC Mix Vol 2. album, which you can download for free as well. So happy listening and let me know what you think.

Canadian architecture firm Naturehumaine had some challenges on this home due to foundation issues but found a way around it. They decided the best plan of action was to compress the spaces on numerous split-levels to yield the space needed per the clients request. This home has some serious rough around the edges appeal but it works. They kept some of the raw elements throughout the interior and exterior to give the home simple yet stylish look. The vaulted ceiling in the dining area is great and gives the home more natural light. Plus the cabinets in the kitchen are very stylish and it somehow works well with the wood flooring.
The QTvan is the world's smallest caravan and is named this way due to it caters to three British obsessions: queuing, tea and caravans. This QTvan is also environmentally-friendly as well which is always a plus, but make no mistake, with green comes a higher price. You are looking to spend around (£5,500) or ($8,000) for this caravan.
The Environmental Transport Association (ETA) developed the QTvan to highlight the estimated 220,000 people who use a mobility scooter without breakdown cover and face the prospect of a very long wait should they suffer a mechanical fault or their battery runs flat. In doing so they made it so you can relax in style while you wait. This bad boy comes with a 19" TV, radio, alarm clock, book shelves, a full sized single bed and cooking facilities. You can't go wrong with that.
I thought this was a pretty interesting product that some of you would find useful. Plus, it's at a decent price that most people can afford. It's the Cobra Phone Tag ($60) which basically keeps track of valuable items nearby like your purse, laptop bag or car keys. It uses a Bluetooth connection between the included dongle and your iPhone, Android device, or BlackBerry to let you know if your tagged item has left the vicinity. It will immediately sends you an email or text message with GPS coordinates when it happens, and works the other way around, too, letting you "ring" your smartphone from the PhoneTag.
Bianca Chang who is a full-time junior designer is also a paper artist, illustrator and creative problem solver based in Sydney, Australia. All her sculptures are cut by hand using only a pencil, ruler, compass point, blade and of course 100% recycled paper. Below is a video showing the layers and detail of her design of the letter A. Her Letter A has 180 hand-cut layers of 80gsm paper, which is fascinating seeing how she creates her sculptures and how much time it has to take.
Last month I put "Bury Us Alive" by Starfucker in Playlist-24 and I became a fan immediately. So being that I was impressed by this one track I had to get their whole album Reptilians. Let me tell you this album is full of rocking atmospheric tracks with an endlessly array of catchy tunes. The band even uses some great philosophical samples here and there that works well with the feel of the album. This band which most would consider them pop have found a way to enter this realm of synth-pop and have been quite successfully at it. This band uses the right touch of synth and vocal styles to pull off a good pop band. So have a listen to the album below and let me know what you think of Starfucker.
This home which is one of the oldest houses in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood was in desperate need of revamping. Feldman Architecture was in charge of repairing and expanding and modernizing the small, dark house while maintain the rustic charm of the 1860's cottage. What I like about this house is the careful mixing of rough stone and wood with clean glass and metal which makes the home pop with rustic yet modern.
