Concept Phone Bracelet

Correction: Shiny Shiny writes about the "allmyfriends" bead bracelet, a concept phone by Jack Godfrey Wood - a student at Central St Martins College of Art & Design during a Nokia Design sponsored project (and not a Nokia Design Concept like I blogged yeserday). [Press Release]

"The idea is that you create your own little personalised bead (in an "allmyfriends" booth) that you can hand out freely to all your friends (and anyone you meet of a drunken evening)

They add it to their bracelet (or necklace) and squeeze your particular avatar-esque bead when they want to call you.

When the call comes in, the bead on your bracelet will light up, and you can take the call using the accompanying ring, which includes a mic and also acts as a receiver, sending sounds up your cupped hand to your ear."
