Musical Mammaries

This is just too weird. iTaTas?

Computer chips that store music could soon be built into a woman’s breast implants.

One boob could hold an MP3 player and the other the person’s whole music collection.

BT futurology, who have developed the idea, say it could be available within 15 years.

BT Laboratories’ analyst Ian Pearson said flexible plastic electronics would sit inside the breast. A signal would be relayed to headphones, while the device would be controlled by Bluetooth using a panel on the wrist.

According to The Sun he said: “It is now very hard for me to thing of breast implants as just decorative. If a woman has something implanted permanently, it might as well do something useful.”

The senors around the body linked through the electrical impulses in the chips may also be able to warn wearers about heart murmurs, blood pressure increases, diabetes and breast cancer.

via the fabulous Shankar, who by his own admission cannot get enough of hearing “A Love Supreme” by John Coltrane through a nice radio-rack. Let’s hope they figure out a way to install speakers.

p.s. Who says women are objectified?

    I guess if mine were big enough to get ‘em up around my ears…

    Fuck that, I’m waiting for helium implants. I figure they’s work as flotation devices in case of a water landing, and as self defense too. Someone comes at you, you stick one with a pin; how’s he gonna keep up a scary front when he’s talking like a castrato duck?

    Wait ’til Davecat hears about this. He’s going to have speakers installed in Sidore’s ass.

    Could it come with the option of having subwoofers installed in your ass?

    I’m sure you’d have a remote control, but in case it got lost, you’d want something built in to change songs etc . . . I cannot go anywhere good with this.

    The sensors warning about possible health problems actually don’t sound like a bad idea. The Mp3 player and music collection, on the other hand…. *sigh* I just can’t see that being a good thing, for a number of reasons. The remote control thing mentioned by wolfa, for example. And this from someone who works WAAAAAY better with her tunes playing. Especially when I’m pushing a deadline at o’gods o’clock in the morning.

    Do you feel tingly when you hit “shuffle”?

    What might they put in the vagina? And could a penis be made to sound like a flute?

    (I HAVE NO SHAME!) :D

    Laurie: On a more serious note, I agree about the merit about the sensors. Living as I do with a heart condition and diabetes, it would be a godsend. And if they can devise an effective blood test for bipolar disorder, that would make me happy, too.

    Then I see through a glass darkly: here we will be running around with sensors implanted in our bodies, detecting our every ill while most of the world has to struggle on in the Middle Ages. I am not about to stop taking my medications because of this or turn down such detectors, but it will be hard to not think about those without the resources.

    Back to silliness: For the vagina, the sound of a slide whistle.

    I’m thinking, for the penis, something sort of like the whistle attachment on teapots – they start out quiet and only get up to the full shriek when at a full rolling boil.

    Joel, are you not aware of how to play the skin flute? It’s really quite simple! The left hand is placed slightly below the right with a firm but fleixble grip, and you put your lips right up to the, uh…

    …what the fuck am I saying?

    Call me a flute tease.

    (That’s not a command.)

    I am against this idea. I’m sure that no matter how small Apple makes the iPod, it’ll still be too big to fit in one of my breasts.

    But boy the FRT jokes would be great. “Suck My Left One” is song #1 today, and ha ha, actually playing out of my left one!

    Call me a flute tease.

    Wouldn’t a taxi be more comfortable?

    Joel Sax 10.14.2005 at 9:49 pm |

    Of course I know how to play it, Lauren. I’ve soloed. Sings nicely without the application of any wind….

    Which leads to a protest sign some friends of a friend saw:

    “Would someone please give him a blowjob so we can impeach him?”

    Hey! I have dibs on Joel’s skin flute.

    Play on, Lynn. Play on.

    ROFL

    Actually, some time ago I and a friend joked that someone should combine the cellphone with the iBrator. We stopped when we realized that nobody would answer that phone…

    Btw E aren’t reading this, right?

    I always thought a penis would sound more like a trombone than a flute.

    Oh, and the Black Eyed Peas would have another reason to be overexposed. Their song “My Humps” would be given away free as part of a musical-breast promotion.
