novembre 14, 2023 | 2 lire la lecture

Lancement de l'en-tête fantôme

Fatigué de la monotonie des technologies modernes ? Nous aussi. Retournons vers le futur. 👻

De la guitare transparente de Dave Grohl à votre manette Nintendo, nous, les humains, avons toujours été fascinés par le fonctionnement interne des outils qui nous aident à vivre. C'est pourquoi nous vous présentons la nouvelle édition spéciale « Ghost » Traveler.

Un rappel affectueux à la technologie futuriste de l'an 2000 et au-delà, ce design unique de Traveler présente un corps clair qui vous aidera à voir les choses d'une toute nouvelle manière pendant que vous travaillez sur les entrailles de votre histoire.

La transparence à son meilleur

Qu'ont en commun l'Exposition universelle de 1939 et la manette Nintendo de votre enfance ?

La folie du clair.

Les produits complexes aux boîtiers transparents émerveillent le public depuis 1939, année où General Motors a dévoilé la Pontiac Ghost , la première voiture transparente aux États-Unis, dans le cadre de son exposition « Futurama ». La Pontiac Ghost offrait un aperçu de ce qui se passait sous le capot – littéralement – ​​et était censée offrir un aperçu du futur.

Bon, on ne conduit plus tous des voitures transparentes de nos jours. Mais vous avez sans doute remarqué la mode des voitures transparentes dans les années 80 et 90.

Du Crystal Pepsi aux Tamagotchis, en passant par les iMac translucides et ce téléphone Conair Clear Light-up que votre sœur utilisait pour monopoliser la ligne téléphonique, les produits transparents sont devenus omniprésents.

(Ils étaient également courants dans les prisons, pour des raisons de sécurité, mais nous ne nous attendons pas à ce que vous le sachiez.)

Fantôme en cours d'utilisation

C'est ce qu'il y a à l'intérieur qui compte

Retombez en enfance et redécouvrez le plaisir d'écrire sans limites. En relançant un peu de jeu dans votre processus d'écriture, vous ne devinerez jamais où les histoires vous mèneront.

Alors, soyez bizarre. Faites l'inattendu. Attrapez Ghost avant qu'il ne disparaisse.

Nous n'avons fabriqué qu'un seul lot, alors passez votre commande et commencez à voir des choses comme jamais auparavant.
