Crowdfunded Playable Pegs

Qleek is Raising Funds So Your Digital Content Can Take Physical Form

— May 22, 2014 — Tech
Two entrepreneurs from Paris are looking to bring your digital content out in the open. An Indiegogo campaign for Qleek transmits any digital content, such as music playlists, YouTube videos or Instagram feed, through hexagonal pegs called Tapps and a wireless hub.

The wooden Tapps put your digital life into the real world by acting as records linked to an updated version of your digital content. They can be shared with friends or families, similar to other souvenirs. This funds-seeking system can be played back using the hub, which can connect to a screen or speaker. No wires, apps or computers are required to do this.

Ideal for binge watching, Qleek can stream entire television show seasons and will know exactly where you left off. The Tapps are rewritable and the covers customizable, so you can truly reflect your personal style. The Qleek storage system also acts as a modern shelving unit.
