What remote? Use the wand.

In case you haven't quite got Brendan Dawe's nifty skills in 'programming' Play-Doh, here's another excuse to replace your remote control with a universal one. By universal, I do mean a wand. Fans of Harry Potter would love this – personally, I'd just like to wave one in someone's face while the nearby TV/DVD/(insert preferred infra-red electronic device here) heeds my beckoning. 


The clever Kymera wand can learn 13 different codes and there's even a practice mode which, let's be frank here, is terribly crucial before you actually try to impress your guests. Or try to hide the remote control from your housemates.


Love it when tech is invisible. 



No remote, no problem

I started taking note of Brendan Dawe's work after seeing him give a talk once upon a few years ago. The man should have his own stand-up routine, never mind the delightful interactive projects he keeps churning out.

If you ever wanted to control a video with Play-Doh, well, now you know you can.
