Loving this ‘doggy-styled’ piece of design by great-great Japanese contemporary artist Yoshitomo Nara.
‘Crafted with both design and function in mind, Doggy Radio melds Nara’s dual loves: visual art & music. In addition to being a beautiful three-dimensional depiction of one of Nara’s well known canine characters, Doggy Radio is also a fully functional sound system. With design supported by global sound positioning technology from YAMAHA Lab, Doggy Radio easily connects to your digital music library via Bluetooth, USB or auxiliary input. Also, by turning the doggy’s lighted nose, you can tune to your favorite FM radio stations; while controlling power and volume by “petting” the doggy’s chin. Truly melding key themes in Nara’s unique artistic vision, this innovative art object can be appreciated and enjoyed by sight, sound and touch.
Doggy Radio is limited to a strict run of 3,000 pieces, and each one includes a metal dog tag with its unique edition number. In addition, each doggy comes beautifully and safely packaged custom designed container with an exclusive easy-to-follow manual illustrated by Nara himself, as well as an USB cable and a power supply with international outlet adapters for easy and convenient use.’
