as openly mentioned before, i love technology – particularly – as it relates to art.
i remember my first memory stick clearly. i called her lipstick + she had a cord attached, so that i could wear her as a necklace – the ultimate fashion accessory. and also, project femininity upon her. now ‘they’ have come up with more clever modes of loss-prevention. and this here is my usb flashdrive (aka ufd) rounder-outter-up, which is less mushy than the knichet round up.
i love the idea of an outdoorsy high school kid with an l.l.bean backpack + this carabiner tagged on – hiding secret dorkdom, privately delighting in the cleverness of it . . . ahh highschool memories i make up.
another clever idea: plankton brings us trompe l’oeil 2009. thanks technabob!

nailed it
and anoher severed ref:
and although the critters are cute, i’ve something for 80′s nostalgia myself:
yes 80′s – no ufd – a hub!
not organic enough for you? the end of this round up is food . . . mmmmm cabbage
