TRANSLUNAR Launches AURORA: A Sensory Sculpture for the Home of the Future

Globe and Mail19-05-2025
TRANSLUNAR unveils AURORA — a sculptural object blending art, technology, and futuristic design to reshape the home environment.
More than a light or speaker, AURORA is a multisensory installation for homes that embrace emotion, expression, and immersive experience.
'We didn't aim for loud,' says TRANSLUNAR Co-founder Benny Robte. 'We wanted to design something that feels present — even when it's silent.'
Crafted from hand-laid carbon fiber and aerospace-grade aluminum, AURORA balances strength with elegance, every line evoking motion and calm.
Internally, AURORA integrates a high-fidelity Bluetooth speaker and responsive ambient lighting, shaping the atmosphere through light and sound. It doesn't demand attention — it guides it.
'AURORA was never meant to be a 'product,'' the TRANSLUNAR team shared. 'It's a spatial experience, where sculpture meets technology, and feeling leads function.'
Founded in 2019 in Colorado, TRANSLUNAR is a design studio focused on future-oriented living. Its mission is to blur the boundaries between science, art, and design, crafting objects that stimulate not just the senses, but the imagination. The studio's philosophy — "Earth is too small for dreams.' — guides every creative decision.

Reaction to the death of professional wrestling icon Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan, whose given name is Terry Bollea, waits in the courtroom during a break in his trial against Gawker Media in St. Petersburg, Fla., March 9, 2016. (AP Photo/Steve Nesius, Pool, File) Hulk Hogan, perhaps the most recognizable showman of professional wrestling with his muscles for miles, long blond locks and handlebar mustache, has died. He was 71. Hogan, who was WWE's biggest star and an actor who once had his own reality show, 'Hogan Knows Best,' died Thursday in Clearwater, Florida, where he lived. Here's some notable reaction to his death: JD Vance 'Hulk Hogan was a great American icon. One of the first people I ever truly admired as a kid. The last time I saw him we promised we'd get beers together next time we saw each other. The next time will have to be on the other side, my friend! Rest in peace. - on X Ric Flair 'I Am Absolutely Shocked To Hear About The Passing Of My Close Friend @HulkHogan! Hulk Has Been By My Side Since We Started In The Wrestling Business. An Incredible Athlete, Talent, Friend, And Father! Our Friendship Has Meant The World To Me. He Was Always There For Me Even When I Didn't Ask For Him To Be. He Was One Of The First To Visit Me When I Was In The Hospital With A 2% Chance Of Living, And He Prayed By My Bedside. Hulk Also Lent Me Money When Reid Was Sick. Hulkster, No One Will Ever Compare To You! Rest In Peace My Friend!' - on X Brutus Beefcake 'Through the good times and the bad, I always loved my brother Terry!

GENIUS Act gives global crypto industry ‘clarity, simplicity,' says expert

Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies, joins BNN Bloomberg to discuss the impact of new U.S. crypto laws. Sorry, we're having trouble with this video. Please try again later. [5006/404] Landmark cryptocurrency legislation signed into law by U.S. President Donald Trump last week gives the fast-growing global crypto industry new legitimacy while making it easier for investors to gain exposure to the sector in a safe way, an expert says. 'It gives clarity, simplicity and lets everybody understand what the rules of the playing field are,' Andrew Forson, president of Toronto-based DeFi Technologies, told BNN Bloomberg in an interview on Wednesday. 'That encourages innovation without fear of inadvertently triggering a securities law or breaking some sort of rule that would make it really, really difficult for the business to recover from.' The legislation, known as the GENIUS Act, is a major step toward legitimatizing the crypto industry in the eyes of the U.S. government through overarching rules and regulations. But the law's impact will reach far beyond American crypto markets, said Forson. 'The U.S. is without a doubt the largest capital market in the world, and whenever they provide a degree of regulatory clarity, it makes it easier for everybody worldwide,' he explained. The rise of cryptocurrency trading has led to increased demand from investors looking to gain exposure to the industry without taking on the risk and volatility it's historically been associated with. Crypto-linked exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have began popping up on exchanges around the world in recent months, offered by financial services companies like DeFi. 'DeFi Technologies and our wholly owned subsidiary Valour is probably one of Europe's most significant or prominent digital asset exchange-traded product (ETP) issuers,' Forson said. 'In particular, we have 78 digital asset-underlying ETPs listed on over eight exchanges throughout the world, and one of the big benefits of this is it makes it a lot easier for institutions and retail investors to gain exposure to digital assets in their investment portfolios.' Forson said he acknowledges that there will likely continue to be a certain amount of hesitancy towards cryptocurrency from some investors given the numerous instances of fraud in the industry over the years. The most notable example being the high-profile collapse of popular crypto exchange FTX in 2022, which led to fraud charges being brought against founder Sam Bankman-Fried. He eventually was found guilty and is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence. 'That actually is one of the reasons why DeFi… (is) so well positioned to help institutions and individuals gain real exposure to the digital asset space, with broad exposure across many, many digital assets beyond just bitcoin, in a safe and regulated manner,' said Forson. Shares in DeFi itself, which were changing hands at around US$3 per share in midday trading on Thursday, are cheaper than they should be, Forson argued, noting that the company is profitable and has many avenues for future growth. 'I can unequivocally say that we are undervalued. We should be trading at a higher multiple than we are… we are a profitable company, we actually make real money and (will) continue to do so into the foreseeable future,' he said. 'Just a few days ago, we hit the US$1 billion assets under management metric, which is always a nice threshold to reach, with the assets that are held by Valour, and DeFi Technologies itself is also involved in a number of other areas including a corporate venture capital portfolio.'
