Welcome to

Who says that big is king? Why would anyone think something is better because it’s bigger? Good thing that the tech industry works the opposite way. Technology stuff are cool only if they are tiny. Look at the ipod. Look at the evolution of the cell phone. Look at all of those mini computers and mini portable media players. Small is sexy.

Things just can’t be small. It has to have a nice design. The lines and curves of things defines the design. The colors highlight the forms. Mix all of this together and put it into a small package. Then you have something that will make even the ipod jealous.

The mp3 market is dominated by Apple. Ipods have held the top spot since they first started selling them in stores. The only thing that can kill the ipod is the iphone. Good thing that those products are from the same company. I wonder what will be next for media players? I wonder if they will implant little chips into our bodies. Will the next generation of ipods be invisible? Will we not need batteries for our new ipods? Maybe we can use the energy from out body to power these mini entertainment devices. I think it will happen. I think i read about it in the Bible when i was younger. I think it was in the book of Revalation.

I’m a designer so i think that everything should look good. I know that form follows function, but why can’t functional things be pretty as well. For example, why are most of the speaker sold in stores so ugly. Why do they have to be rectangular? Why why why? I found a lot of cool speakers for my home office. They weren’t that expensive and i think they serve two purposes. If a speakers just play the music loud, it’s just a speaker. But if a speaker decorates your space, then you have functional art. I love my bost headphones. I want a bose home system but i have to save up for it. I was using the free speakers that came with my PC, but i recently bought me some Sony ones. These babies weren’t that expensive and i was able to beautify my desk space. Don’t you just love the little things in life?

Who says design has to be colorful? Usually, the simple lines and shapes of an object makes it a classic. Apple is a company that is build on design. Their products are not mere electronics, they are acessories. They are beautiful. The user interface of Mac computers are just cool. Everything from the font to the images has some sort of design element. If only Windows was able to do this something like this sooner. Read the rest of this entry »
