Feel Me by Marco Triverio (via)
Feel Me is an app that creates a sweet, playful connection through a nonverbal, interactive channel. Feel Me presents itself as a messaging application. When both sides are using the app, Feel Me shows where the other person is touching the screen. Touching the same spot triggers a vibration, which acknowledges that both people are ‘there’ at the same time.

This is very, very cool, HOWEVER. They really should warn you it is incredibly processor intensive before it completely bogs down your computer, instead of after, so that you’re not stuck force-quitting any other program you are unfortunate enough to have open. So, fair warning, everyone. Also, it only works in Chrome.
I am from nowheresville, so my hometown doesn’t work. Neither did the place I’ve lived longest as an adult (the Ahwatukee section of Phoenix, AZ), so I tried where I worked in Austin. Bingo. And no, you don’t have to be an Arcade Fire fan to enjoy it. Try it!
Pillow Talk by Joanna Montgomery is a project aiming to connect long distance lovers. Each person has a pillow for their bed and a chest sensor which they wear to sleep at night. The chest sensor wirelessly communicates with the other person’s pillow; when one person goes to bed, their lover’s pillow begins to glow softly to indicate their presence. Placing your head on the pillow allows you to hear the real-time heartbeat of your loved one.
The result is an intimate interaction between two lovers, regardless of the distance between them.

Differently coloured squares are scattered across the glass surface in a seemingly random pattern to hide the name of drinks which can only be revealed when the glass is filled. The Cipher glass concept, which has won 2009 reddot design award, is designed by Damjan Stanković.
