many unofficial LEGO gadgets have been on the market for some time now, but next month will see LEGO themselves release a digital camera and MP3 player developed together with digital blue.

LEGO worked with the atlanta-based company who specialize in children’s tech-products for a range of gadgets that includes walkie talkies, boomboxes, alarm clocks as well.

‘our entrance into the youth electronics space will enable our fans to express themselves through photos, videos and music, while displaying their enthusiasm for one of the world’s all-time favourite toys’ said jill wilfert, lego group’s vice president of licensing.

the boomboxes can already be bought from digital blue online and from various leaked images it seems that a video camera and a mobile phone are also in the works though no release date has been announced.

the vessel

the vessel angelo tabije

i like this a lot. carlo’s brother, angelo, did this and it’s currently on exhibit at the kaida gallery in timog quezon city. dubbed the vessel, the painting depicts probably the last virgin in this fictional technoethnic tribe from daangbakal. or at least that’s what we call it  🙂  we’re thrilled angelo is getting the attention now with this current series. a few months ago 3 of his works were sent to singapore for a show and were sold out on the first day.  below is his painting he sent to the metrobank art competition where it was judged finalist.  hopefully next year he’ll bag the grand prize. then maybe he can work on a 1-man show. the future is bright with him  🙂

the new series Flashforward is promising. too much influence of michael bay lang sa 1st episode (and that’s a bad thing). good that the 2nd episode picks up. cant wait for the next installment 🙂
