iblock: lego style ipod speakers

filed under: audio | geek art & craft | just plain fun

ibrick1 lego ipod speakers

Here’s one of those things that makes me go, “why not?”: Building Brick iPod Speakers. On one hand, Lego and iPod barely have anything to do with each other. On the other hand, why not?

The Building Brick iPod Speakers, aka iPod Brick, aka iBlock, but not aka Lego iPod speakers,  works with 3rd-5th gen iPods, 1st-3rd gen iPod Nanos and on the iPod touch…

PSP Hack

If you’re a geek or a techie among ignorant friends, here’s something you can try for a few laughs. Or a few punches in the face. Playboy21 of psp-hacks has cooked up a tiny program he calls TrickBrick.

If one of your n00b friends owns a PSP, offer to upgrade their firmware. Put TrickBrick into their memory stick’s GAME folder, select it from the game menu and voila…

lego star wars diorama blows my mind

filed under: geek art & craft | just plain fun

LEGO Star Wars Diorama

Some people have way more time on their hands than I. Take for instance this guy, who painstakingly created this Star Wars scene using nothing but a crapload of LEGO bricks.

Tim Goddard (aka Roguebantha) created this amazingly detailed scene he calls “Rebel Attack”…

lego skateboard for some bricktacular shredding

filed under: geek art & craft

LEGO artist extraordinaire Nathan Sawaya’s recent project is this super sweet LEGO skateboard. It’s actual size, and based on the close-up picture of the wheels I’m going to go out on a limb and say it’s not actually ride-able…

phones that look like food don’t seem so delicious

filed under: hacks-mods | strange and wonderful

I had no idea you could get custom phones to look like food products, but I’m here to tell you that you can, and they’re… um… unique.

It all started when I saw this phone that looked like a sandwich, or rather, that looked like a phone horribly smooshed into a sandwich…

lego lamp is blocky and bright

filed under: design | just plain fun

25togo Lego Lamp

These clever desk lamps get their inspiration from classic LEGO building blocks. Designed by Taiwan’s 25togo, these LED illuminated acrylic block lamps look just like a giant-size version of the popular plastic playthings.

The blocks have a snap-off top layer that’s designed to hold pens, pencils and other office items. Each brick measures in at appx…

lego sushi looks stacky and scrumptious

filed under: geek art & craft

Too bad this Lego sushi is inedible, because it looks oddly delicious! I love the wasabi- that’s got to be a specialty color.

I must be in serious need of a snack because I actually drooled a little bit when I saw these pictures. Of course, it’s hard to tell if that’s because of my love of Legos or sushi- maybe both…
