There is a strong chance that anyone who gets a present from me in the coming months, will have it wrapped in this AMAZING paper from rappingpaper.co.uk.

They’ve typeset the lyrics to Run DMC, Sugarhill Gang and everyone’s favourite gift-giver, Eminem – onto some nice quality wrapping paper.

They also get bonus points for using an old school Adidas box for the wrapping tutorial. Awesome stuff.

I love the packaging – well designed, with a sense of humour – and mostly paper based for recycling. I took some pictures as I unboxed.

I’m writing a review of my first few days of using the Kindle – now they are available in the UK (via Amazon import), I’m sure I’ll see more of these on my travels.

The black box above is an extraordinary piece of art, every ten minutes the black box connects to a server on the internet to check whether it is for sale on eBay. If the auction has ended or it has sold, it automatically creates a new auction.

If a person buys it on eBay, the current owner is required to send it to the new owner. The new owner must plug it into the internet and the cycle repeats.

Amazing concept – I’m keeping my eye on this one…

Here is the current auction. Found on Caleb Larsen.
