TikTok and LunaTik are the design projects of Scott Wilson's MINIMAL studio (for example, they designed Nike Presto Watch and Xbox Kinect ). Everything would be fine if it were not for the amazing story of the project's implementation: Scott posted the project on Kickstarter.com and asked for a donation of some $ 15K. For those who donated from $ 25, Scott promised to send ready-made straps (depending on the amount - plastic, aluminum or both straps, more elegant options were offered for donating 150 + $ and 500 $). And the amazing thing happened ... People donated not $ 15K and not $ 20K, or even $ 120K. People threw a million dollars in Scott’s hat! I don’t know what exactly happened - either the design of the people's straps broke, or the promise to send them at a lower price than the retail influenced (in my opinion, both factors influenced - Kickstarter is full of similar projects, but with a poor design, and something there is no explosive popularity).
I also got under the hand, in the sense - I reached out to donate $ 25 for the love of beauty. On December 16, the fundraising was closed, and Scott was already in Hong Kong at that time, negotiating with the contractor. I thought that the production and distribution of so many straps would take months. But the other day, a peppy Thai postman rolled on his motorcycle and handed a parcel from Hong Kong. And here is what happened next:
I received a feedback that: the video is delayed, I think and talk tediously. If this can be an obstacle, don't look better.
