Jul 21 2009Brand Keyboard Replaces Letters With Logos

MORE: art, brands, companies, computers, design, is this making some kind of statement?, keyboard, logo, neat, okay, peripherals, psychology, sure why not

The Brand Keyboard, designed by Ignacio Pilotto, has logos instead of letters on all the keys. That's neat.

BRANDS : Adidas - Burger king - Coca Cola - Disney - Ebay - Facebook - Google - Hp - Intel - J&b - Kodak - Lacoste - Mac donald´s - Nike - O2 - Pepsi - Quaker - Rolling stone - Shell - Twitter - Unilever - Virgin - WordPress - Xerox - You tube - Zippo

The repetition of the logos used by the advertising psychology, causes us to systematically recognize the brands, getting us to recognize the logos rather than our own alphabet.

Psychology, I love psychology. One time I brainwashed a whole craft room full of senior citizens into thinking I was Jesus, then demanded a tithe. Whee! Next stop: hell.

HOLY JESUS ASS CHRISTMAS!!!

This'd get confusing. TO THE EXTREME.

This should be a free keyboard, sponsored by these brands. If I had to pay for it, I would never buy it, but if it were free, then yeah...

I'd hit it!

5. paddy - July 21, 2009 5:43 PM

I'd be all over that. I don't give a crap about the brands but the keyboard is funny and it wouldn't be difficult to type on. It's not like they moved the letters around.

an obvious statement on an obvious issue.

That's lovely, but how do you betray someone in World of Warcraft?

8. What the hell? - July 21, 2009 6:38 PM

I did not know that a band could be considered a company... (The Rolling StoneS logo is the hot lips, not Rolling Stone magazine)

11. Dishy Dishyington - July 21, 2009 6:53 PM

I'd tap that. The keys I mean.

12. Pew³ - July 21, 2009 6:53 PM

@7.

CTRL+ McDonalds+Disney is the default betray command, or

ALT+Nike then eBay!

13. Dishy Dishyington - July 21, 2009 6:54 PM

Particularly the V key.

14. Dishy Dishyington - July 21, 2009 6:57 PM

Why it the G key Google and not Geekologie? Stupid twunts.

15. Moose Knuckle - July 21, 2009 6:57 PM

I'd rather have a keyboard where the keys are euphemisms for bewbs...

I spilled Cherry Coke on the Virgin key and it popped.

17. David - July 21, 2009 7:27 PM

Am I still the only person to notice Billy Mayes on the caps lock key?

18. Leonidas - July 21, 2009 7:34 PM

@15: excuse me while I pick up the pieces of my exploded head.

@12: remember that thing a few months back where this hot dirrry chick posted her day's activities in logos? I see potential for combining this with that, but my IQ is insufficient for me to take it to 11.

19. Pew³ - July 21, 2009 7:43 PM

@17 My caps lock key doesn't work anymore, it's dead.

...too soon?

20. Stephanie - July 21, 2009 7:44 PM

LOVE IT!!! I swear i get most of my information for weboaster.com on here

21. starbucks_ho - July 21, 2009 8:23 PM

22. Don - July 21, 2009 8:24 PM

Not even Nintendo?

23. Madgame - July 21, 2009 8:50 PM

@14 - they've had more airtime on CNN

24. Conductor - July 22, 2009 4:31 AM

The best thing about it is its prize.

25. Daisy - July 22, 2009 6:10 AM

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.

This is exactly like that scene in the movie never back down where Max pulled a gun on a guy working nights in a convenience store, and saw from his ID he wanted to be a vet, but dropped out. MAx told him if he didn't go back to school he would come back and kill him.

@ 16 & 19

27. Timbo - July 22, 2009 8:11 AM

I can't type as it is.... this would screw me up big time...

28. Pat - July 22, 2009 8:28 AM

@2 LOL

@14 Good point. I suggest a boycott!

29. STOMPY - July 22, 2009 9:03 AM

@27
In many religious traditions, Hell is a place of suffering and punishment in the afterlife, often in the underworld. Hell can be funny as long as teh ppl getting arse facked by a hot poker isn't you. It also helps if you have a homosexual relationship with Lucifer and whore yourself out to the demon minions every once in a while (thx for the tip mom...).
