If you ask me (and I know you didn't), there just aren't enough things being done with shoes that recycle the energy you generate as you walk. This project, done by designer JooYoun Paek, combines shoe power with inflatable furniture to create a chair you pump up as you walk. And *so* stylish, too. Does Bjork know about these?

I would be more interesting in a Compression generator inserted into the heal, and a small Battery pack to charge anything you are carrying.

Yeah, power to your PAN (Personal Area Network). That's the kind of motion recycling I'm *really* interested in. This thing is more of a chindohgu (clever, impractical invention) than anything else.
