Old Tech Reincarnated As New Bling

Where does technology go when it dies? If it’s lucky, designer Paola Mirai snaps it up and incorporates it into her Cirkuita collection, a mix of jewellery that combines circuits and transistors and other gear ephemera with a material called orotransparente to create wearable pins, rings and baubles. Beats the junkyard afterlife, that’s for sure. [Paola Mirai via Sullepunte via Design Milk]

    Wow, a transistor reincarnated as a butt plug.

    Marconi would be so proud.

      That’s the first thing I though…
