The Sun Moon and Twilight Jars are ingenious and rather charming lighting concepts from designer Tobias Wong. Just as jam jars store jam the Sun Jar stores sunshine. The Moon Jar also stores sun which might be a little confusing but it’s because it gives off a soft blue light at night rather than a warm glow. To confuse matters even more we’ve finally got our hands on the beautifully dusky Twilight Jar which also stores sunlight. Simply sit the jars on your windowsill during the day then when it gets dark they automatically turn themselves on and glow with the day’s sun. The jars contain a solar charging panel and low voltage bulb along with an auto light-sensitive on/off switch. Don’t let the sun go down on your day let the moon come up at night and bask in the beautiful twilight whether it’s cloudy or not.

The definitive cult, post-modern novel – a shocking blend of violence, transgression and eroticism. When Ballard, our narrator, smashes his car into another and watches a man die in front of him, his sense of sexual possibilities in the world around him becomes detached. As he begins an affair with the dead man’s wife, he finds himself drawn with increasing intensity to the mangled impacts of car crashes. Then he encounters Robert Vaughan, a former TV scientist turned nightmare angel of the expressway, who has gathered around him a collection of alienated crash victims and experiments with a series of auto-erotic atrocities, each more sinister than the last. But Vaughan craves the ultimate crash – a head-on collision of blood, semen, engine coolant and iconic celebrity. First published in 1973 Crash remains one of the most shocking novels of the second half of the twentieth century and was made into an equally controversial film by David Cronenberg. Ballard,s autobiography Miracles of Life was published in 2008 and Extreme Metaphors, a collection of interviews with the author, is due out in 2012.
Price : £ 5.59

Terminate virtually any television! This gadget can put virtually any television into standby mode and is tiny enough to hide in the palm of your hand, so no one knows it’s you that’s terminated that TV! There’s nothing worse than going out for a quiet drink or intimate meal and having a TV screen ruining the experience for you. Now there’s a solution! The Telly Terminate! Small enough to attach to your keys and keep in your pocket so it’s always ready to turn off televisions wherever you are. There’s no way to tell it’s been used, so if you’re discreet enough, it’ll just look like the TV has gone into standby mode on its own. Handily, the Telly Terminate also features an LED torch, which is useful on its own, but also means that if you do get asked about the Telly Terminate, you can just say that it’s a tiny light that you carry with you. Of course, being able to put TV screens into standby mode could be used for various pranks, wherever there are TV displays, but that’s up to you and we’d never suggest anything like that. No. Of course not!
Price : £ 5.79
