Chindogu Art - Japanese Useful Inventions and Gadgets
Chindogu is a community where amusing, moderately conceptual, extremely strange "gadgets" are accumulated, which seem to be called to solve some problems. The problem of these inventions themselves is that the difficulties for which they are created either do not occur at all, or occur extremely rarely. All in all, a bit of humor in your feeds.
Since yesterday we had a post about cats , we’ll continue with them. This invention is simpler: Auto Pussy Petter ™ . In essence, it’s an ordinary stationary claw-claw, but with an outstretched “hand” so that the cat can stroke itself if the owners do not have time.
Back Scratcher's T-Shirt ™- T-shirt with squares. It works in tandem with a similar cardboard pattern, with which you can explain exactly where your back itches, if you don’t get it yourself.
Hat Pack ™ is a brilliant solution for those who value a new hairstyle. Such a hat will protect from rain, but at the same time the styling will remain unharmed, and you can make a proper impression when you come to visit.
Another interesting and “necessary” project in the field of clothing! Wardrobe for Sock Closet ™ socks . True, it has recently become known that odorless socks have finally been invented , and now you can do one or two pairs, but for those who have not yet placed an order for Kickstarter, such a wardrobe is a good solution: now they won’t get lost!
Fone Face ™- Something like Hands Free, but created primarily for ethical reasons. The culture of communication on a mobile phone involves some intimacy, and it is not very noble to discuss your problems, for example, in public transport, involving involuntarily strangers. Such a mask hides you, makes your conversation quieter for others and - as a bonus - louder for the interlocutor. There's something about it.
Actual and seasonal - Hay Fever Hat ™ - wipes for those who have a runny nose, who are always with them, and most importantly, are always available and do not have to find them in your pockets.
Another “useful” gadget, “similar” to one device from our posts: AC Free Charger ™. The gadget will allow you to charge one dead battery due to 12 new ones. True, it will take some time.
In addition to jokes . Chindogu is almost an art in the framework of which quite unusual, but understandable in terms of logic and even common sense, inventions are created. The humor is that even the motivated use of anything from the collection will cause some embarrassment both in others and in the carrier.
The key in this direction is that such gadgets cannot be called absolutely useless, but their everyday benefits are poorly explained.
The term was introduced into the language by the Japanese inventor Kenji Kawakami , and since 1995 has entrenched in the culture, and the site - Chindogu - where we got the pictures from, exists since 1997.
Like any art movement, Chindogu has its own history, principles and postulates. Among the basic requirements that gadgets must meet:
That’s all with us. Have a good weekend!

Like any art movement, Chindogu has its own history, principles and postulates. Among the basic requirements that gadgets must meet:
- They cannot be created just for the sake of humor.
- They cannot be created for the sake of money, and they cannot be sold (Everything that can be sold from this category has long been on Kickstarter)
- They must be real, they can be made / created, and not only exist as a concept
That’s all with us. Have a good weekend!
