I’ve got to say that this is about one of the coolest table lamps I have ever seen. The brain in question is an accurate 3D modeling of the artist’s brain, which was obtained through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm and then “printed” using a 3D printer. The result, as you can see for yourself, is nothing short of spectacular.

When I was a young kid, the thing Atari’s glory days were already at an end. I started off with games like Super Mario Bros. And Duck Hunt, however, over time I grew an appreciation for the other games which were a little more difficult to get ahold of back then. One of my favorite older games has to be Space Invaders. I don’t know why, but i just love mowing down line after line of bad guys as they slowly come down at me. Well if you’re as much of a fan as I, you might check out these interesting lights.

You’ll notice that these lights bear a strong resemblance to the Invaders in that classic arcade. However they are much different, as they are called Intruderz. I doubt that the slight difference in the name will hinder many people from purchasing these. The price of around $50 per light, however, might be enough to do the trick.

Shiny Shiny may have picked up on this wind-up LED lamp specifically for festival season, but here in the States we aren’t lucky enough to have such a thing. Still, this lamp could come in pretty handy while camping or during a black out. The lamp will last 48 hours when fully wound on ‘night light’ or ’safety light’ mode, or four hours in ‘ambient’ mode. Getting there shouldn’t take too long either, as a full minute of winding will give you 30 minutes of light. For the truly lazy a 12v car adapter is available. This wind up lantern is available for £19.95 or about $39.
