Playbuttom
Posted by Fabio 25 November 2010
Playbuttom is a wearable button that plays music: A record that plays itself. The content is pre-recorded and cannot be changed or downloaded. Like an album the sequence of the music cannot be altered. Playbutton’s audio output and battery charger are shared in one jack, and the button exterior can be designed as album art, or to otherwise correspond with the content behind it.
Playbutton is affixed with a pinback. It plays music on a re-chargeable lithium battery, and the casing is made of stainless steel.
Designed and manufactured by PARTE LLC, New York.
