KitRadio Teaches Electronics By Turning Components into Diorama

From Samuel Rhoads-Clarke, KitRadio is part DIY radio, part mini-artwork diorama. It’s designed to teach you about the inner workings of a gizmo that we take for granted as a “black box” item nowadays, or “become familiar with the technology behind the product” as Samuel puts it. To that end, the wooden box and components with brass images attached are self-assembly, and create a tiny urban- or farm-scene diorama when they’re completed. Sounds totally bizarre, and slightly cute at the same time… just the right thing to get techy kids interested. No word on whether it’ll become a product rather than a prototype. [Dezeen]
