Clockwork Memories

Rob Smith's crafted memory sticks are another addition to my mechanical object fixation. The UK artist creates these hand made USB drives using various types of wood and old watches. I'm loving the vintage feel on a modern day gadget.

 

      

He also creates cuff links using the same concept. Smith's work is available for purchase at his Etsy store.

Retro-spect

I'm not exactly sure why I'm drawn to this image, but it's probably the backdrop of the pale brick wall and door, coupled with styling that combines various retro eras seamlessly. The photo is taken from a shoot of Bird on a Wire's 70's vintage leather skirt pictured in the photograph; as listed on ASOS Marketplace.

All I can say is I'm totally feeling it!
