Aussie Bench Records Your Arse Heat

You! You’re full of body heat. Your blood is boiling. Maybe just figuratively. But you’re not just a pile of molecules, you’re throbbing with vitality. This bench by Australian designer Jay Watson shows it to the world. Thermochromatic bumprint!

It’s a handsome modern bench set, sure, but the thermochromatic coating is why we care. Any body part that touches the surface will change its colour, leaving a mark behind. From the photos, this looks cool and frankly kind of gross. [Pause Art]

    This reminds me of the ones that were installed in a pavilion (perhaps Japan) at the Brisbane 1988 World Expo. That and the hypercolour t-shirts of a few years later.

    These should be everywhere. It would stop fatties from sitting down all the time. They would get up off their asses and actually do some exercise.
