Every year, MoMA PS1 gives a young architect $85k to build an experimental party pavilion—read: a shading device for events—in the gravely courtyard of its Queens arm. This weekend, the museum unveiled this year’s space: A 30-foot-tall wall fabricated out of scraps from an Ithaca skateboard factory.
We can’t say we were enthused with Coda Automotive’s ho-hum EV design, and we know the public wasn’t, either. Still, it’s hard not to lament the company’s fate now that its parent, Coda Holdings, is declaring Chapter 11 bankruptcy and getting out of the car market. The firm has had enough of production delays and slow adoption, and now it’s planning to sell its Automotive division through an auction that should net at least $25 million. What’s left of Coda will focus on energy storage, if and when it emerges from bankruptcy — not nearly as exciting a field, but likely more profitable. While the exit was far from unexpected, it reminds us that the modern EV business is more often defined by its casualties than its winners.

Coda One Bluetooth Speaker
Posted in: Today's ChiliDo you love convergence devices? Whether you like it or not, that is the direction where the industry is heading, and the Coda One Bluetooth Speaker is a prime example of that. The Coda One Bluetooth Speaker functions as a handset, and when the need arises, it is also a speakerphone, and when you are not holding any kind of conversations with a connected smartphone, it will double up as an above average stereo speaker. The folks behind the Coda One wanted it to be different from the numerous Bluetooth speakers that are out there in the market, hence throwing in a slew of other functionalities as mentioned earlier.
At first glance, who would have thought that something so elegant in design and simple in looks would be able to do so much? The Coda One Bluetooth Speaker is a dual-speaker device which can also be turned into handset mode, letting you hold it to your face just like a normal phone, giving you the space and chance to carry out your private conversations without anyone eavesdropping on the other side. Would you fork out $99.99 for the Coda One Bluetooth Speaker?
