Jewelry That Harvests Energy From Your Veins

Let’s read that again. It’s jewelry that HARVESTS ENERGY from your VEINS.

Need a charge? Just STAB your jewelry straight into your own body to draw a charge!

Okay, so you may have noticed me taking a hypochondriac’s spin here. In fair representation, Naomi Kizhner created these devices as a social commentary on human energy consumption, not as a practical way to harvest energy. (Although I still say sticking a couple needles into yourself to make a wheel spin inside a transparent casing is CREEPY, but there you go.) In her words, the jewelry is a discussion piece “about how far will we go to in order to ‘feed’ our addiction in the world of declining resources.”

What do you think, readers? Cool or creepy?
