Player Piano Indiegogos for great geeky piano music
Player Piano is responsible for one of my favourite YouTube creations of the year. They covered the Akira theme so well.

This means you can control the lighting colours and effects you want but you also get to impress and entertain your guests. The lights […]
Tetris shelves
You can have geek cred and interior design style at the same time. Don’t believe me? Check out these Tetris-styled shelves! Looking at them, it seems like some shelves sit inside the others, and others balance on top of the ones below. I wonder if you could successfully stack them together in another shape. Sadly, […]
