We need more beauty in tech, not useless ugly cr*p. Think Apple products.


Are you saying their products are beautiful, or ugly crap? It seems ambiguous which one is referring to Apple.

Beauty is subjective.

Good art is not necessarily beautiful. I suspect there's more interesting potential for art/tech collaboration not in the beautiful parts, but in the ability to create something thought provoking.


I meant Apple makes beautiful products.


Huh. I took my iPhone out of it's case. I dunno, it is really just a glass rectangle with a bit of metal around the edge.

I mean, they are fine devices, but fairly boring and utilitarian.


I wouldn't call Apple products that, but I agree their design is overhyped.


While I will never buy another new Apple computer; I've always liked the look of most of their products unless my finances improve.

Would I rather have a ugly product, that I could repair----hell yes.

I thought some of Palm products back in the day were beautiful. I loved my Palm TX. I loved the look, and feel of the product.


yes we must consume
