Push My Buttons

concept designed by Erik De Nijs
The thought of wearing bits of a computer might seem a bit odd, it can be compared to wearing your house hold furniture
such as a seat or sound system or bug zapper.
Hang on just a second…there are jeans with
built in supports in the back of the legs so you can with nothing to sit on, jumpers that harbour mp3 players and clothes that shield the wearer from bugs like mosquitoes, ticks, ants and flies. maybe the idea of wearing a computer component isn’t so farfetched?

Another gadget is the wasp knife. It looks like just any other knife however this one holds a surprise for in that nice rubber handle.




Inside is a small cartridge of compressed air and the blade is like a hypodermic needle with a channel to release the gas in the cartridge strait out the end of the knife this becomes a very useful tool for divers. The effects of this device are devastating.
Rapidly inflating whatever it is jammed in at the time.

The knife speaks for its self.
