			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m sure many of you have are familiar with the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDzWSdndJbw">Rubens&#8217; Tube</a>, which is a device which works sort of like a VU meter, but with flames. But I have to say that this thing is even cooler. It&#8217;s like a Rubens&#8217; Tube which operates on two axes.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-76484" title="pyro_board" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/pyro_board.jpg" alt="pyro board" width="600" height="398" /></p>
<p><span id="more-76435"></span>The Pyro Board was constructed for <a href="http://phys.au.dk/formidling/fysikshow-aarhus/">Fysickshow Aarhus</a> in Denmark, and can create patterns from sound using flammable gas, pushed through a grid of pinhole jets. The rig sits on top of a loudspeaker inside of a flameproof metal box. When the sounds or music are played, they create low and high pressure zones between the metal box and the grid. These result in cool patterns of flame which move along to the beat of the music. Here, check it out for yourself:</p>
<p><iframe width="620" height="495" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Y4Q4tirAOmU?fs=1&#038;feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>It&#8217;s sort of like one of those sound-synchronized light shows, but using flames instead of LEDs or bulbs. While the patterns are definitely not as predictable as a Rubens&#8217; tube, I think the effect is still pretty cool. Now I want a nightclub to install one of these and hand out marshmallows to roast on top of it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have a very vague memory of playing with one of these Terminator joysticks on my old Atari computer system back in the 80s. I can&#8217;t believe somebody managed to dig one of these oddities up.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-18208  aligncenter" title="atari_terminator_joystick" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/atari_terminator_joystick.jpg" alt="atari terminator joystick" width="600" height="563" /></p>
<p>I found these images over on <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/klonoa/">Klonoaxero&#8217;s Flickr page</a>, where he says he recently picked up this suspicious looking Danish retro Terminator grenade controller from a friend. From what I recall, the controller had a DB-9 Atari connector so it worked with most game systems and PCs that supported that standard.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-18209  aligncenter" title="atari_terminator_grenade_controller" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/atari_terminator_grenade_controller.jpg" alt="atari terminator grenade controller" width="600" height="848" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;m kind of surprised that the Terminator&#8217;s tagline was &#8220;THE ULTIMATE CONTROLLER&#8221; &#8211; I was thinking something like &#8220;THE LAST CONTROLLER YOU&#8217;LL EVER PLAY WITH.&#8221;</p>

<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/space_invader_jacket.jpg" alt="space invader jacket"  title="space invader jacket photo" /></p>
<p>Designed by Scandanavian design mavens <a href="http://www.junkdeluxe.dk">Junk de Luxe</a>, the shiny synthetic look kind of reminds me of those cheezy old <a href="http://www.liketotally80s.com/members-only-jackets.html">Members Only</a> jackets, only further reinforcing the 1980s theme.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the only place I can find these is from <a href="http://www.trendlovers.dk/product_info.php?cPath=&amp;products_id=49">Trendlovers</a> in Denmark. So unless you happen speak Danish, you may be out of luck. If you absolutely must be kept warm by aliens this winter, you can always pick up a toasty <a href="http://www.technabob.com/blog/2007/11/03/space-invaders-scarf-aliens-to-keep-you-warm/">Space Invaders scarf</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Designer Gabriel Nigro couldn&#8217;t stand the rats&#8217; nest of cables that were strewn about his floor, but didn&#8217;t want some industrial-looking cord management system. So he created everyone&#8217;s new best friend, Woofy the Cable Dog.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/woofy_cable_dog.jpg" alt="woofy cable dog"  title="woofy cable dog photo" /></p>
<p>Woofy conceals cables inside his belly to keep all your wires nice and tidy. But Woofy is much more than a cord organizer. He&#8217;s the biggest party animal since <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spuds_MacKenzi">Spuds McKenzie</a>. He&#8217;s got his own <a href="http://www.myspace.com/mywoofy">Myspace</a> page, complete with obnoxious nightclub music, he&#8217;s a real <a href="http://woofyaroundtheworld.wordpress.com/">jet-setter</a> and <a href="http://www.normann-copenhagen.com/woofy/">fabulously trendy</a>. If you can forgive him all that, Woofy is actually a pretty cool way to hide your cable clutter.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/woofy_on_the_road.jpg" alt="woofy on the road"  title="woofy on the road photo" /></p>
<p>You can get your own Woofy from <a href="http://www.unicahome.com/p37785/normann-copenhagen/woofy-cable-container-by-gabriel-negro-for-normann.html">Unica Home</a> for $200. While that&#8217;s not exactly cheap for a plastic puppy, it&#8217;s a fraction of what you&#8217;d spend on a real dog. And besides, somebody&#8217;s got to fund all of his clubbing and travel expenses.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Denmark&#8217;s <a href="http://www.kilodesign.dk/">Kilo Design</a> has put together a new in-ear headphone design that not only looks pretty hip, it&#8217;s designed to sound good too.</p>
