Thanks to fashion brand Hermes and architect Didier Fiuza Faustino and their creation the ‘H Box’, we can expect art to reach and be available in the most remote locales. H Box is a high-art mobile museum (a nomadic object) designed on the lines of 1970s spacecrafts and can be moved to any part of the world.

The H Box intends to make art movies, avant garde productions by revered directors and producers like Dora García, Su-Mei Tse, Judit Kúrtag, Yael Bartana, etc be available to people who have a good taste in movies but are cut off from large urban centers. The H Box plans to reach major cities like London, Paris, and also lesser known places such as Bucharest, Oslo, Abidjan etc. The next halt of this mobile entertainment craft is going to be Yokohama, Japan!

Lately, Sony has made up to headlines as it has bagged the crown for developing worlds first-ever thinnest LCD HDTV. Measuring mere 9.9mm thick, the KDL-40ZX1 almost bisects the depth of Hitachi’s previous victor (suggestible to be installed in bathroom now) and hits the market with a whisper of Pioneer’s mega thin conception.

The model sports a LED back lighting, 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 120Hz MotionFlow tech, x.v.color and BRAVIA Engine 2 image processing. Clarity about the available facts detail only one HDMI plugging onto the screen itself whereas other needless HDMI/USB/ constituent inputs are consigned to a base station, with the choice for wired or perhaps WHDI based? Japanese will be allowed to emboss the ZX1 on their walls if they are ready to shell out $4,474 on 10 November (expected date fopr its market availability).
