Mass storage stone

Posted: November 20th, 2006 | 1 Comment »

I found Michael Leung‘s “mass storage stone” stunning:

Mass Storage Stone – prototype, 2005
A portable 4 GB hard drive that fits into your pocket, and has similar qualities to a stone – textured and slightly cold to touch
53 x 40 x 25 mm – synthetic resin


Why do I blog this? I actually like the metaphor of the stone for an external hard drive; the shape is also convenient.

    Beautiful! I love this too. Imagine the situation of somebody arriving home too late and too drunk and being hit, not by the rolling pin, but the stone-hard-drive! After all, it is clear that the stay-at-home partner would have been working… not baking pies.

    Much better is the fact that you then can say that you have in stone. Carved in stone?

    Let me see what my stone has to say…
