Here's Michi Jung's description of the Chocolate Music as described for the 100% Design London exhibit:
There is a need for a new type environment of social in which the home is central. House concerts are becoming more frequent moments of meeting at home.
Music Chocolat fits into this context, combining a classic taste with new hi-tech features so that the furniture itself becomes the protagonist of these moments. The project involves a unique design concept, in which the "sound" becomes part of the link between style and quality and made in Italy style and quality of life.
Adding a new function to that of traditional Pouf is a distinctive feature of the project: the pouf is an audio amplifier for i-pod and MP3 players equipped with an external pocket ad-hoc. A new way to live and share own music at home.
And if one cube of chocolate, there's a chaise lounge model which controls an MP3 or other digital audio device via the head pillow.
um....
