Weird Michael Jackson Thriller Headphones

Just for the hell of it, Nokia decided to run a design competition, challenging competing designers to create headphones inspired by their favorite music. Some of the resulting designs, as expected, are pretty awesomely wacky. The design above is inspired by Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” complete with unearthed zombies and a pedophile werewolf.


Complete with display case for the tour of the Nokia Store on Regent Street, Heathrow Terminal 5 and Nokia headquarters in Helsinki.

Press down on the cross shaped headstone and the hand reaches out


Adjust the headphones for different head sizes by pulling the zombies, further out from their graves. The headphones also rotate at the zombie's waists.


On this side the panels of the doors are actually working control buttons (pause, skip etc) the hole in the door allows the Bluetooth light to shine through. The Zombie's head can turn 360˚.

In loving memory of one of my favorite films.

Very much so. And the headphones after the jump are just as awesome. It's basically like wearing a crazy diorama on your head. Obviously, none of these will be for sale at Best Buy anytime soon, but they sure are cool to look at.

The Tree Stump Speaker System - Hidden in a Natural-Looking Tree Stump

If you like nothing better than doing your weeding whilst chilling out to a little classical music, or you are a party animal who’s always got a crowd of party-goers in your back yard (half of whom you probably never invited) then this weatherproof outdoor speaker system could ensure that you can get down to the rhythm regardless of the prevailing metrological conditions.


As you can imagine, it is suppose to be an outdoor sound system to match other tress on a garden, and the weatherproof feature serves it right. It has 125-watts of audio stereo sound and sadly it is a single speaker, but there are other models that even include a subwoofer. The stereo speaker is on special for US$140 at the moment.

This speaker simulates a real tree stump, so you won't need to disrupt the natural landscape in order to enjoy quality sound outside.
