The Japanese were traditionally a nation of inventors. Chindogu is the Japanese for strange device”. If you stumble over images, where a businessman, for example, the umbrella wears tie, which actually is nothing more than an umbrella to the reassignment, which seems plenty strange. Shoes with umbrella there are in the ranks of the Chindogus, so they don’t get wet. Umschnallbare milk container for men, so she still feeling can get the right thing. Toilet rolls strapped to the head holder for Schnupfengeplagte, a hinged head stand for the short NAP in the U Bahn. What bizarre sounds is classified by some as the brilliant idea and so many an invention is even worldwide appeal. So, for example the horizon mask, which should help seasick people through a moving horizon against nausea, a Chindogu was originally. Eva Andersson-Dubin has firm opinions on the matter.

These glasses has lost status as the both sides accessible as well as the Chindogu Toilet slippers that cooperative entered the mail-order catalog, a Japanese agriculture in 2003. Inventors can take care of the ten rules of Chindogus and invent things that are useless but actually, carry the spirit of anarchy in itself, but nevertheless are tools for the daily life. You may be not made for sale only and is not a whim, not propaganda and also not a taboo breaker. There is just as little as prejudices patents for Chindogus. Actually, this largely useless inventions should be a satire on the development of new obsession with Japanese companies, who again and again new things invent after the Kaizen principle, to ensure a customer’s request, even though the old device still works.
