Video: Metro map on a bracelet

What would we, residents of a city with a metro, do if we didn't have a metro map at hand? Yes, they are in the metro itself, and just on the streets, but sometimes you need to have it at hand. That would be extremely handy! Designers think the same way.
At least that can be said for Tiffany Burnette, who thought of the forgetful citizens of New York City. Of course, it's hard enough to fit the entire metro map onto some small thing that is always with us, but at least part of it is possible. The designer thought that for now, this part is destined to be Manhattan, because later she might create other maps. The embodiment of the idea was reflected in the decoration - as we can see, the result is a bracelet, on the front side of which there is a subway map of Manhattan. Just imagine how convenient it could be! Before going outside, before taking the metro, you just need to put on a bracelet, and you don't have to remember about the map. It is specially made classic, not multi-colored, but monochromatic, moreover, made of metal. It is interesting that on the map we can see not only lines and stations, but also streets with house numbers. We Russians find it difficult to understand the many intertwining lines that are also the same color, but the Americans, I think, like everything. But whether the price of the bracelet will please them is a question. Although it's not a pity to shell out $ 23 for such a useful thing, is it?
On his website, the designer asks if anyone will have ideas and wishes, and, of course, many are already ordering subway maps of their cities. Perhaps you can make good money on such a business!:)

A giant map of the world created from microcircuits. Installation of World Map by Susan Stockwell
Computers in the modern world are as important a part of our life as light, gas, water and electricity. Moreover, it is so important that even after the “death” of the unit, people are not ready to say goodbye to it forever, preferring to disassemble it into “organs” and then reuse them for other purposes. So, broken hard drives in the hands of craftsmen turn into original sculptures, small details become unusual decorations, and motherboards, wires, coolers and microchips do
Mitten bracelet as a phenomenon
Recently, in photo reports of fashion shows (for example, the Chanel show fall-winter 2010-2011), I began to notice this intriguing accessory (depending on the design, it is put on the wrist closer to the fingers, on the palm of the hand near the knuckles or is threaded through the thumb) and thought, Are our people ready to wear such a thing? Actually, the question is addressed to the audience. And at the same time, I am posting to your judgment a few of my creations - beaded bracelets-mittens
