Voice activation is a function electronic devices like cell phones, GPS units and computer include in their feature list to make it more convenient to interact with them but clothing? Yes, clothing too, at least this is what Sarah Soriano, a new media artist with a love to electrify garments is proposing with the sound reactive Nightgown.

Insects have played an important part in the history of human nutrition in Africa, Australia, Asia and the Americas . Hundreds of species have been used as human food. Some of the more important groups include grasshoppers, caterpillars, beetle grubs and (sometimes) adults, winged termites (some of which are very large in the tropics), bee, wasp and ant brood (larvae and pupae) as well as winged ants, cicadas, and a variety of aquatic insects. Ordinarily, insects are not used as emergency food to ward off starvation, but are included as a normal part of the diet throughout the year or when seasonally available. Via [Food-Info.net]

SHANGHAI: Over 20 superstars and fashion elite wearing delicately designed chocolate clothes on the theme “Opera” were the highlight of the start of the 15th Paris Salon du Chocolat in Shanghai yesterday, the world’s biggest chocolate event.

Started 15 years ago in Paris, the Salon du Chocolat has now been hosted in New York, Tokyo and Moscow, as well as Beijing in 2005.

However, it has taken another five years for this worldly chocolate event to finally come to Shanghai, where many of the French companies in China are located. via [chinadaily]
