Art Lebedev Studio's new Flashkus

By Rain Noe - February 17, 2011

in Object Culture

Art Lebedev Studio's latest product, so new it's not even on their site yet, is the "Flashkus." Unlike the current and somewhat ridiculous trend of making USB drives jewelry-like and cladding them in precious materials, the "Flashkus" is made from cardboard, perhaps acknowledging that these things are not exactly going to become family heirlooms. Added bonus: You can write directly on the thing.

To be fair, according to the Russian version of Art Lebedev Studio website it's just a concept art, not a product.

Now *this* is a good idea. I wonder if it is still possible to get parts for small (remember when a 128Mb thumb drive was amazing?) usb drives so they can be sufficiently cheap to make into business cards. Imagine being able to hand people your card with a copy of your portfolio, contact info, CV, images revealing your sexual proclivities etc. Make them laser printable so you can run a sheet of them through your own printer!
