Buzz about the Stereo Yoga Mat prototype has been wildly variable, from enthusiasts ectastic about its potential to improve their posture and meditation, to hard-core anti-materialists appalled at this electronic intrusion into their sacred relaxation. The concept is simple: thin-film flexible video which takes streaming wireless input or content from memory cards or your mp3 player. Probably the final product wouldn't be quite such a cross between a snow carpet and a vacuum cleaner body, but it probably will still evoke karmic outbursts about how perfection should come from within. Which it should, but if some cheap (expensive) gadget moves you further on your way to Nirvana and doesn't burn baby seal oil, what's the real problem? [Camille]
