Catalytic Clothing


Catalytic Clothing is a  new technological innovation that breaks the boundaries and  limitations of traditional function of clothing, by giving it a new meaning of air purifying.




Links below describe technological innovation behind nano molecules and Photocatalysts and their scientific use as well as application in design and fashion.

I accidentally came across Catalytic Clothing, while searching something else on the internet, and wanted to share it wit others because it could’ve been a great help and inspiration for Air Freshener project ( 3rd year Industrial Design, first semester).

There are no limitations to technology, EXPLORE IT!

Ipod Nano (first generation) Replacement Program


I got an email a couple months back from Apple saying that if you still own the Ipod Nano first generation (which I did own one), they advised to return it and have it replaced.  They call it the Ipod Nano (first generation) Replacement Program and I thought this was a great example of TRANSPARENCY.  I've had my Nano since it first came out back in 2006 and apparently over time, the battery can overheat and catch fire.  As a means to prevent from this actually happening Apple is replacing the old, hazardous Nano with the swanky brand new Nano models.  I've had mine sent in, but have yet to confirm what I'll get in return.
