INTRODUCING DERRINGER CYCLES

Derringer is the neo-classical interpretation of a 1920’s era board track racing motorcycle, but that’s not all.

This revolutionary moto-hybrid was conceived as an exciting new option in highly-efficient transportation. Derringers can be pedaled as a traditional bicycle, propelled via engine power, or pedaled with the assistance of engine power. While under power, the pedals can also remain stationary, allowing you to operate in the style of a traditional motorcycle. Capable of fuel economy ratings that can exceed 150 mpg, Derringers are the first product to take the compromise out of environmentalism, clearly evidenced by the number of customers who purchase a Derringer along with an in-home display stand.

INHALE

Derringers were specially designed to conform with the legal classification of a motorized bicycle and, in their standard configuration, do not require the motorcycle license endorsement that is necessary to operate scooters and mopeds in most states. As long as the rider is over 16 years of age, no drivers license is required.*

The Derringer was created by world-renowned industrial designer
, whose clients range from celebrities including Brad Pitt and members of the Royal Family, to design-forward companies such as Sony®, Reebok®, and Hewlett Packard®. Heralded as a genius by Sony®, his extraordinary creations have been featured in publications ranging from Forbes® to Variety®, and on television shows seen around the world. From the white tires, manufactured without the use of carbon black, to the hand made leather saddles with hammered copper rivets, each Derringer is a beautifully crafted objet d’ art. The finished product is a pure vintage racer, reimagined for a concrete jungle.

I WANT A SLIDING HOUSE.

This video was featured in Wallpaper Magazine. Check it out here.

“The brief was simple: to build a house to retire to in order to grow food, entertain and enjoy the East Anglia landscape. The outcome was as unconventional as they come. A structure that has the ability to vary or connect the overall building’s composition and character according to season, weather or simply a desire to delight. Wallpaper* took a trip to the site to capture the physical phenomenon in the only medium that serves it justice – film.“

Introducing the AKAI EWI USB

Wish List  Item #2

YESSSS!!!

at only $499 i’m stoked. As the Akai website says, ” blah blah blah enables you to simulate anything from saxophone, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, and many other acoutics blah blah blah you get over 75 different orchestral, concert band, jazz band, and synthesizer sound sets expertly recorded and programmed by Garritan, renowned for its ultra-realistic instrument sound libraries.”

I think this is one of the better releases of 2008 for sure. It definitely grabbed my attention.
