Friday July 3rd, 2009 17:30 Bosendorfer Concert Grand Piano by Audi Design

Audi is well accustomed to making intricately-crafted, finely-honed, shapely instruments capable of producing exquisite sounds and performances to the highest degree. Just take a look at the R8 supercar and you should need no more evidence. But for the company’s centenary celebrations, Audi’s design team has taken on a unique challenge, and partnered with Viennese piano-maker Bosendorfer to bring it to life.

While Porsche Design’s Bosendorfer featured some intriguing elements, Audi’s take on the grand piano starts from scratch. The automotive design team had to learn what goes in to making a piano, and then turned everything on its head to produce the creation you see here. The Bosendorfer Audi Design Grand Piano will make its world debut at the Audi Forum in Ingolstadt, Germany, to mark the automaker’s 100th anniversary on July 16, after which it will come to market for a rather suitable €100,000…one more thing it holds in common with Audi’s finest automobiles.

Tuesday April 14th, 2009 23:07 The Auction That Never Was

About a month ago, former pop star Michael Jackson began his quest to cancel a huge auction of his personal belongings.   Now, with just a week before the auction, the King of Pop has finageled his way and auctioneer Darren Julien has said that he has reached an agreement with Jackson that will see the items returned to Jackson after the public exhibit of the 1,400 lots is over.

The auction, to be held on April 22-25, was to have included Jackson’s customized Rolls-Royce, costumes, memorabilia, art and custom furnishings and was anticipated to have brought in more than $10 million. It would have been the largest authorized of Jackson’s belongings and Julien’s Auction House has spared no expense in putting the auction together.

Some reports speculate that Darren Julien spent as much $2 million preparing the sale and the exhibit even creating a signed and numbered five-volume catalog that would sell for $500. Jackson is believed to have paid some money in a settlement with the auction house that may result in some of the items finding a permanent public home in some sort of museum-like space.
