The new series is written and co-produced by Reginald Hudlin, and premiered this month on Australian children’s channel ABC3. Djimon Hounsou voices Black Panther, king of the African nation of Wakanda.

Comics fans will certainly appreciate the John Romita Jr. art used in the intro (or at least, it sure looks like Romita’s art) from the “Who Is the Black Panther?” story arc authored by Hudlin and Romita.

Along with Hounsou as T’Challa, Stan Lee provides the voice of General Wallace, JB Blanc voices The Black Knight and (wait for it…) Batroc, Kerry Washington voices Princess Shuri, Alfre Woodard as Queen Mother and Dondi Reese, and Jill Scott provides the voice of X-Men member Storm.

The series currently has no air date/network set for the U.S.

“Satin sheets symbolizing luxury are getting geeky by the day! Imagine integrating a radio alarm clock within the Sheet! That’s the Melted Clock for you: a haptic, touch sensitive alarm with speakers and controls all embedded within your sheet. The three control icons are embroidered on the sheet and relevant to the operating elements on the outside edge of the bed sheet. Use the two in combo to set your radio frequency, alarm time etc. Essentially, you just feel your way through this system; IN YOUR FACE!

The clock segments are thin and hidden underneath the fabric. They consist of silicone and give the emboss feel via a slat of EPS (electroactive polymer, used for artificial muscles). When activated by electricity, the slat expands and lifts up the silicon segment; giving us the embossed numbers of the clock.

Apparently you can even wash the sheet; the silicon segment and the EPS slat are fixed in a small case. The small cases are arranged on a platen. When you want to wash the sheet, you just remove the platen with the clock components.” – VIA YANKO DESIGN

“The idea behind this project is to recycle products in a new and novel way. We were asked to think freely in the use of materials and applications for the project such as creating art pieces, user experience and enhancing the way we work. For Peach I used mannequins, I decided to use human like display forms and breathe new life into them to add a sense of fun to an otherwise spiritless form. I used the discarded lower torso of a female mannequin and combined it with something unrelated. ”

” Audiophiles will surely drool over this gorgeous high-end wooden turntable that promises to deliver the sweet sound of the vinyl spinning on it. The Groove Master turntable from the house of PBN Audio is a jewel of analogous turntable construction. Looking to the future without forgetting the past, the company imports all the characteristics of a traditional turntable to its latest masterpiece by combining hardwood with high-grade steel to produce a stunning music playing object in a streamlined form. The hardwood body with three laminated solid wood layers at the base lends depth to the audio. The two-motor counterbalanced dual drive renders absolute 33.333rpm and four belts are employed for maximum traction. The legendary SME 312 12-inch audiophile tone arm, balanced 17lb. stainless steel flywheel and solid stainless steel progressive-traction belt guide are a few other vital components put together to build a contemporary turntable that delivers as good a sound as it looks. The PBN Audio’s Groove Master turntable made for those who demand high acoustic quality and great design can be yours for $10,000.” VIA BORNRICH
