Artist Tobi Leingruber has designed the Skatekeyboard, a piece of geek art that melds a keyboard with a skateboard. In many ways, each item represents a facet of pop culture. The skateboard has long been associated with outdoor activities, youth sports and a cool skateboard deck often stood as a symbol of ones beliefs.
Today, skateboarding is still a highly popular recreational activity but the keyboard has become an essential part of life, much like the microwave oven or the family car and most jobs require some degree of keyboarding skills.
Perhaps the skatekeyboard will serve as a reminder to all the indoor computer geeks to take some time off and get some fresh air. The skatekeyboard will be on display next week at the BLK River Festival that is being held in Vienna.
