Windowlicker – Back to the Future

The homo-neurotic’s weekly perusal of objects accessible only to those with the financial resources of a Russian oligarch that incite horror, desire, shame, and revulsion. All at the same time. By Jonathan Thong.

One cannot help but be discouraged as the world becomes increasingly awash with ugly, cheap electronic trinkets and gizmos that inspire little more than an overwhelming sense of…meh. Touch screens, GPS, push email are certainly marvelous but what good are they to a modern aesthete of means if they must assault one’s discerning eye and imagination? Gentlemen, put aside those plastic gadgets and knickknacks, and for heavens sake get out of that sweltering iPhone queue! Who needs an all-in-one phone, camera, music player when one can simply indulge in the following sublime technological artifacts:

Cartier Roadster Chronograph in stainless steel, $8100.00 @ Cartier

Bang & Olufsen Beosound 9000, $3500.00 @ Bang & Olufsen
