Are You Up For Some Molecular Cooking?

Posted: 23 Apr 2009 02:32 AM PDT

I know that Molecular gastronomy is a scientific discipline involving the study of physical and chemical processes that occur in cooking, but this is the first time I'm coming across a device that actually allows you to do some Molecular Cooking! Consisting of a whip syphon, vaporizer and blow torch the “Moleculars” is something that would make an adventurous cook pretty happy in the kitchen. Experimentation would be the name of the game.

Designer: Sandro Frank

If you’re not up to the Blowtorch style, then maybe its safer that you stick to the un-conventional cooktops that we recently featured at YD. Random concepts that are evergreen!

Shrieking Ball Wakes You Pronto

Posted: 23 Apr 2009 12:22 AM PDT

Clank, Smack, Stand or Glow…we resort to so many new tricks to catch those extra Zzzz, its ridiculous! It's time to add to the collection an alarm that will WAKE YOU instead of adding to the mayhem. This ballsy (pun intended) gutsy alarm clock expects you to lift the globe off the base when the shrieking starts only to be put down precisely in its cradle, to stop the commotion. Dare you snooze! Wake, stimulate, whatever…just make sure DiGi sits pretty next to Chumby.

No One Person Safe from Bath Mines

Posted: 23 Apr 2009 12:01 AM PDT

Actually it’s called the “Bath Bomb,” but any naval commando super sailor knows that this is a mine. Any any naval commando super sailor also knows that one needs dolphins to check for mines. Note: Bath Bomb is “dolphins not included.” This design was designed by none other than Mukomelov Aleksandr. An explosive designer is he. Russian. Tough. That’s what you’ve gotta be to pop one of these into your bathtub. Believe that.

The following words are from Mukomelov Aleksandr himself on the fortitude it takes to use the Bath Bomb: “For absolutely fearless champions used to any difficulty or danger. For men stepping along the blade every day. For ones who really know the value of the words ‘honor’ and ‘courage.’ This gift is candy for eyes and ambitions.”

The most important fact about this design is surely this: women may also use the bomb. The explosion is for everybody with fire in their heart.

Amuen Encourages Our Ilk To Inspire And Be Inspired!

Posted: 23 Apr 2009 12:00 AM PDT

Fellow YDers, if you are looking for a new place to hang out on the net then I must recommend the swanky Amuen site. Designed by our friends at RKS Design, this is the spot to hobnob with fellow "creative souls – painters, musicians, sculptors, photographers, writers, enthusiasts, and everyone in between." The social site is even running an intro contest where you can snap up a Mac Book with a custom skin designed by Carson Hill or a 16GB iPod Touch.

Dirty Kitchen Towels Make Me Sad

Posted: 22 Apr 2009 08:30 AM PDT

Kitchen dish towels are basically vacation spots for the propagation of bacteria. Put it under a microscope and I’m sure you’d see a whole Club Med resort. Gross! We don’t wash our kitchen towels nearly as often as we should. WIPE-C DISHCLOZ is a mini washer designed just for kitchen towels. Drop it in the very cool iris opening top and voila! Clean kitchen towels. Not sure if it uses water and detergent but I’m already sold on the idea.
