			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Look at this beautiful Quin lamp from California artist Bathsheba Grossman. Notice anything special about it, D &amp; D fans? It&#8217;s Bathsheba&#8217;s exploration on the dodecahedron. It&#8217;s so much more than a twelve-sided die though.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4992" title="quinmain2" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/quinmain2.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="491" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The intricate perforations and curvy undulations are not only are a shining example of the seamless blending of technology and art, but also serve to create quite a spectacular display of light. Bathsheba is intrigued by the space between art and mathematics, and finds naturally recurring beauty in geometry as well as the new shapes that she creates.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4993" title="quin-lamp-trio" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/quin-lamp-trio.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="572" /></p>
<p>Bathsheba enjoys working with technology and in this case has collaborated with <a href="http://www.materialise.com/materialise/view/en/114832-.MGX+Design+products.html">Materialise&#8217;s MGX</a> to create this design using their  <a href="http://www.materialise.com/materialise/view/en/91755-Selective+Laser+Sintering.html">Selective Layer Sintering</a> (SLS) rapid prototyping technology. She frequently works in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing">3D printing</a> and has also mastered a technique called subsurface laser damage in the creation of her <a href="http://www.bathsheba.com/crystal/">intricate etched crystal sculptures</a>.</p>
<p>Find the Quin lamp at <a href="http://www.gnr8.biz/product_info.php?products_id=618">Generate</a>, and explore more sculpture with a highly scientific point of view on Bathsheba&#8217;s <a href="http://www.bathsheba.com/">website</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>No matter how cool it is to hang a super-skinny flat panel on your wall, virtually every LCD or Plasma television is looking like the same, nondescript rectangular box. So it&#8217;s good to finally see that somebody out there is thinking a little outside of that box.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/chauhan_tv_humax.jpg" alt="Humax TV by Tej Chauhan" /></p>
<p>This new design for a <a href="http://www.humaxdigital.com">Humax</a> LCD television was envisioned by UK industrial designer <a href="http://www.tejchauhan.com/">Tej Chauhan</a>. Combining the curvy lines of an old 1950s television with the modern technology of today&#8217;s flat screens, the set is a real stunner.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not been revealed if the set will ever see the light of day as a production model, or if it&#8217;s just a conceptual prototype. Either way, it&#8217;s good to see something different, and I&#8217;m hoping that it does make its way to stores some day. If you happen to be in Milan, Italy between April 16-21, you can check it out in person at the <a href="http://zonatortona.com">Zona Tortona</a> design show.</p>
