  • Canon and Vimeo are attempting a video-equivalent of a Twitter novel. What probably excites me most is the fact that these short films – or the first one at least – will be shot on Canon SLRs, in HD.

The Shapeshifting Beemer

One of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile. This is just a concept car that BMW won’t be mass producing, which takes a little outta the kick. Still hot though.

One of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile. This is just a concept car that BMW won’t be mass producing, which takes a little outta the kick. Still hot though.

It’s body is covered by a fabric skin, instead of a metal outer-layer. There’s a metal skeleton underneath the fabric with various moving parts that allow the car’s body to change it’s shape, concealing and exposing different features with the click of a button (or four).

I can’t help but note that a pen knife might render the entire vehicle unusable. It just seems too easy to tear a hole in its skin. But when they come up with a flexible substance that can survive the plastic knife you get from your baker, they’d be able to use this movable skeleton idea to great effect. We just have to wait for it to be letter-opener proof.
