Dude this is exactly the type of thing that GRL is into. Along with me and my buddies. Gives me some cool ideas!

Imagine interfacing one of these with a cordless phone or cell phone sniffer, could be loads of fun!

I can just imagine the bench’s creators coming back to find an empty shell, robbed of all its costly electronics. Now, its just a bench with uncomfortable holes in it.

It either gets robbed, or every time you go there you’ve got a crowd of trendy hipsters wearing girl pants listening to My Chemical Romance on it.

I can imagine a gazillion problems with the RIAA and DRM… “What, you’re doing a public performance of our music, and we’re not getting [lp]aid???”

Cool idea that could possibly be employed at a skate park or something if you could reinforce it and make it vandal-proof…

But bus stops and anywhere else? Regulations aside, I imagine only public disturbance issues here.

Better off making massaging benches…

The boombench is already widely available in Holland.
Just hop on a train or bus and their always will be some north-african tosser behind you playing 50 cents or any other rap-crap on a loud volume.
Maybe they can park some of these benches in Kanaleneiland. With a little modification it should be able to elektrocute 4 or more local heroes.

bet you some fucking nigger crackhead will come by and shoot the damn thing and make it sound like his subwoofer in his car.
