This Bluetooth speaker is visually pleasing


I wouldn't mind having this portable speaker sit on my desk. Designed by award-winning Danish designer Cecilie Manz and crafted by Bang & Olufsen, the BeoPlay Beolit 15 features True360 omni-directional sound, up to 24 hours of continuous play time from a single battery charge, and premium materials such as anodized aluminum and full grain leather.

The $550 Bluetooth speaker weighs 5 pounds and is much bulkier and boxier in design than its predecessor—the Beoplay A2. It's a real powerhouse featuring 4 active drivers and 2 passive bass radiators, driven by dual Class D amplifiers, delivering 240 watts of peak power. Available in Natural Champagne, Polar Blue, and Shade Rosa accents.

Nike Blazer Mid 77 Scribble

When I was in high school, doodling on kicks was a thing. How cool to come into class, learn a few things, then walk out with a pair of scribbled-on sneakers. Even today, many basketball stars are using their shoes for much more than performance. Take a close look at their trainers and you'll find messages written all over. Now Nike is celebrating the process with the release of its Blazer Mid 77 Scribble. Aside from the hand-drawn sidewall Swoosh, the shoe also has smaller notes hidden all over, including the style name and the year it was made. The tongue is also equipped with the brand's logo, which has been hand-drawn in black. I really like the design, especially the imperfect lines. And since we're talking about scribbled-on sneakers, I can't not mention Niko Pelaez . He's a true shoe-drawing machine!  [h/t: Sneaker News ]

The Salimbaa

Here's a strange tribal instrument I never heard of before now. Originally from the Tinananon tribe of southern Philippines, the bowl-shaped Salimbaa is made of metal and wood, has 30 bronze wound strings, and is played using two small sticks.  Caleb Byerly, who makes lost/extinct musical tools in his North Carolina workshop, has an interesting story on how he made his first Salimbaa. WATCH: More details about Caleb and his craft over at  Our State .
