It’s called The Great Slumber, or just Bloody Puddle, a pillow that looks like you took one too many bullets to the head. The site says it will be for sale soon, though something tells us it won’t be ready in time for Christmas. Which is all for the best: God knows what would happen if your grandma walks into the spare bedroom and sees you sleeping on it. [FromKeetra via productdose.com]
As a cushion, the DOS-inspired Dosugus from Art. Lebedev is definitely something I can see resting my geeky head on. But the most interesting thing about it is what is actually listed in the directories. Optimus.jpg, Trojan.exe, and “pron” to name a few. Is it just a joke or are they trying to say something here? You decide. Available now for $28. [Product Page via TFTS]
Designed by Mino Kodama, the Expected Curtain is a sort of instant virtual posse, aimed individuals who either have no friends, or who are plagued by stalkers*. Hang the curtain in your window and, while the three shadowy “friends” won’t show up during the day (thus making your neighbours fear you are a work-shy fop and endeavour to have you thrown out of your co-op) but appear once the lights go on and making you look like a truly popular person. The creator has a website, but it’s still under construction. [Designspotter via MAKE] *I suppose that if you are the sort of person who has no chums, then a stalker could well become a “friend,” could they not?
