When you want to show off but you’re scared… use your buddy’s brand obscuring wearable hologram!

September 27, 2018 ~ admin

Struttin' in the mall with my dream watch, it's finally mine

Woohoo! You finally got that watch

But we're going out tonight so I can't wear it. Drinking and watches don't match

I've got an excellent idea!

That way I can wear it but no one will want to steal it

But then no one will see how baller I am

A hologram might serve as a way to disguise your designer goods to help you make new friends, or it could be a way to protect your favorite things from sticky fingers! Products aren’t always used as intended, what other purpose could a clip on hologram serve?

Sometimes You Need Empathy For People Who Consume ‘Silly’ Things…

September 20, 2018 ~ admin

Sometimes it takes a little research and some conversation to understand why another person has made their particular choices. Tech might not fix all the problems (or it might just fix problems that aren’t really problems) but it could help some people (even if it’s just a crutch). What do you think?

Sometimes You Can’t Tell Everyone About Your Fave Technology… You Never Know How Other People Will See It

September 13, 2018 ~ admin

Technology doesn’t always fix your problems. A hologram designed to disguise your designer items to make you look more appealing to new friends might not be effective if people know you’re using it.

Maybe some things only work when used in secret? What do you think?
