i guess Nole Buddy wanted to emphasize the stupidity of this design and nothing more. finally it is using some chemical stuff to achieve its effect...

Perhaps this would fall under the ever popular design-art genre. I can appreciate it as just that and nothing else.

It's interesting, but I don't want to light up myself.

interesting development, but it seems an old concept... A RCA graduate showed something similar at the previous Summer Show: here

rynona 03.02.09

Not for drinking, fools. "imitates
the form of a tea bag" Imitates means it is not! Do you really want to drink a mysteriously glowing liquid?

Can this be developed for use in rural, non-electrified Africa?
pido 03.06.09
Look interesting and fun to use :-)
alongkot 03.07.09
looks interesting ... i wonder how much it costs , though ... and i am looking forward to the japanese version of this "tea-bag" (nothing racist ,and not to belittle their technological genius, but they do invent some of the world's craziest things )
abc 03.08.09
the first and only question: WHY?????????????????? It's USELESS. It's like fitting a shoe with light on the inside. Abselutely stunningly useless. But it does look nice.
