Bionic boots enter PVC fashion as geek meets glam
Etsy store Bionic Concepts has a bold photo shoot on display in order to sell a $500 pair of boots. Here’s the first disclaimer; the boots aren’t included. I assume we’re talking about the metal struts; the faux hydraulic armour made from lightweight aluminum and ABS plastic. The boots are made to order, which takes […]

The strange chitter of Nyarlaothtop – Naiyoru! Nyaruko-san trailer
It’s always a challenge working out which anime trailers to share on Geek Native. I assume that most readers, like this blogger, don’t speak Japanese. It’s also tempting to post this video without explanation. I think the explanation is what makes the video surreal and funny though! In the anime Naiyoru! Nyaruko-san the thing that […]

Built from scrap in a Bangkok garage by Roongrojna Sangwongprisarn, the alien motorcycle, actually goes. Sangwongprisarn has four shops, called Ko Art Shop, from which he sells his fantatic creation. If you’re rich enough he also exports them around the world. If you’re brave enough you could actually ride this thing. Via Design You Trust.
