I decide to google "Robert Caigan". It is a surprise to find that Bob has entered the web again with new information.
There is a new article, with a brief interview asking him about his (then) recently patented furniture.
I have to wonder why it was never mass produced?
It sounds as if that was his desire and it predates IKEA.
Perhaps because he was too ill?
A new piece for the puzzle.
ADULT FURNITURE
from The Telegraph - Sep 22, 1971
It's an interesting label, "Adult Furniture". It sounds... you know what it sounds like...
What will the world be like when Google has finished documenting and indexing what it can find? Will we actually know more? Can a search engine provide a narrative? Not a list, but a thoughtful, analyzed, reflective narrative?
Safe travels,

I'm amazed the article doesn't include a picture of the chair. It describes it in great detail, but a photo would be a lot more direct--and accurate. I want to know what that chair looked like!
ReplyDeletebtw, I was brought here when I clicked on the link for your post about the hurricane. Where's the hurricane post?
