Scott Radke was born n Cleveland Ohio, spent his childhood in Strongsville, and has lived in the city of Cleveland for the last 10 years. His work has been shown locally and nationally, and is collected and has been commissioned throughout the US and Canada. His unique marionettes have been featured in films and in local performance art.
The original Game Boy(R) Advance fits comfortably into the pocket of a backpack. The retooled Game Boy(R) Advance SP fits into a coat pocket. Now Nintendo takes aim at the pocket of your tightest jeans with the tiny Game Boy(R) Micro system, quite simply the smallest and sleekest Game Boy(R) product that Nintendo has ever created.
The sporty, silver metal Game Boy Micro measures a mere 4 inches wide,
2 inches tall and 0.7 inches deep, allowing it to sit comfortably alongside
today’s hippest technological gadgets. It weighs an astonishing 2.8 ounces, or about the weight of 80 paper clips. Yet Game Boy Micro has the same processing power and plays the same games as Game Boy Advance SP models.

I know, I know, I’m a virtual pet murderer (that’s a murderer of “virtual pets“, not someone who strangles hamsters or something sick like that) but I kind of want a NowaNowa.
Nowa is a very shy little fairy and she only speaks French. She
startles easily so she won’t come out unless you speak to her very
gently and quietly. If she hears you, she may start moving around in
her box but will only dart her head out for a moment and then hide
again. Once you’ve earned her trust, she’ll pop out of the box and the
lid will stay open. She will speak to you until she senses you’re not
paying attention (sound detector) and then she’ll say “bonne nuit” and
go inside her box to sleep. So cute, but somewhat high maintenance, I
think.
IT
OPENS! Can’t you see being in a meeting? or a horrible dinner? or a
mind blowing concert where you happen to be in a shirt shirt that
needed cufflinks? Anyhow, they are so subtle yet detailed. If they
didn’t open and hold pills or whatever you want to hide inside, it
wouldn’t be nearly as fascinating an idea.
This may well be my new closet, CardBoardRobot has the hottest clothes around. They also have little buttons on each shirt, who doesnt like the little buttons? Next yr my School shopping will be exclusively @ CardBoardRobot.
