Art takes many forms, and some of the most well know artistic images of recent times are album covers. The Beatles ‘Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band'; Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind'; Pink Floyd’s ‘Dark Side Of The Moon'; we could go on and on. Now, with the unique ‘CD Wall Tile’ CD display system, you can arrange these works of art on your own wall and bring a touch of artistry to any room. Unlike other CD display racks there is no need to remove the case from the display to get at the disc in order to play your favourite tracks.

Aurora Colour Changing LED Alarm Clock
Posted by Notcot on Sep 22, 2010 in Gadgets
It’s always handy having a clock that you can see in the dark. Unfortunately it can also be somewhat frustrating having a light shining at you when you’re trying to get to sleep. The Aurora Touch Colour Changing Clock removes this annoyance by only lighting for 30 seconds at a time. Long enough for a sleepy person to register the time and then have it turn off so they can drift back to sleep without being disturbed.

Dark Nights Over Neo-Tokyo A Life in the Shadows Among Generations: Film Noir and Cyberpunk – A Comparison using a Cyberpunk Film Canon
Posted by Notcot on Jul 17, 2010 in Noir
Cyberpunk and film noir have never been explicitly compared before. Therefore, the most thrilling part of this research is to enter virgin soil with the basic question: Does cyberpunk contain clearly recognizable elements of film noir? This complex question leads to a detailed examination: Firstly, the definitions of film noir and cyberpunk used in this work are presented. Secondly, a cyberpunk film canon including the most important films must be developed to enter this sub genre. Finally, the film canon is compared with defining elements of film noir. The results give conclusions as to the importance of the revolutionary character of film noir depending on the strength of influence on the authors and directors of cyberpunk. But can cyberpunk be described as: Film Noir + Science Fiction? In order to check the truth behind that thesis, you will undergo a little time travel from the 1940s through Los Angeles in 2019 until the dark age in which machines misuse us humans as batteries. Put on your trodes and dive into the gloomy world of cyberpunk.
