Easy Desk Aluminum

Sure, Core77 may poke fun at how you look while using this adjustable computer desk, but it really does look useful, especially with the MacBook Pro getting so damn hot all the time (although with the weather getting cooler, I’m now realizing that this is going to be a plus during the winter). It looks like the company is Japanese — they mention that they ship internationally from Japan — and I think I’m going to get one!

Hmm, I don’t know…. That looks like a very uncomfortable way of using a laptop and also is just going to get you even more lazy >.

Looks comfortable to me! I mean, I like lying on the sofa like that, with my MBP on my lap, but it often gets too hot, and then I have to change positions, and put it on the side or something.

Jean Snow lives and breathes design and pop culture in Tokyo -- sustained by an unhealthy addiction to magazines and frequent visits to his favorites cafes. He has reported on these obsessions for the following online/offline publications: Time, Inside (Australian Design Review), Gizmodo, Gridskipper, Kotaku, Tokyo Q, Superfuture, OK Fred, Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel, I.D. (International Design), Metropolis, Azure, MoCo Loco, Kateigaho International Edition, Game|Life, and The Japan Times. He also manages the gallery space at Cafe Pause.

Jean Snow is a daily contributor to Wired magazine's game blog, Game|Life, covering game news from Japan and beyond.

Tokyolife: Art and Design covers Tokyo's cultural output of the past few years, covering the works of over 80 influential creatives. Jean Snow provided coordination assistance.

The Superfuture Superguides are a series of PDF travel guides to some of your favorites cities, updated monthly, and obsessively compiling the best places to shop, eat, and drink. The Tokyo guide is edited by Jean Snow.

He is also the design/culture editor at Neojaponisme, a web journal covering social and cultural aspects of Japan. Read the manifesto, by founder and chief editor W. David Marx, here.

PauseTalk is a regular series of events that take place at Cafe Pause on the first Monday of every month, with a start time of 20:00. The idea is to create a forum where Tokyo-based creatives can get together and discuss their own projects, as well as cultural currents of the city. The next edition happens August 4 (there is no July edition).
