The Spot for Nixon is a portable amplifier that's been designed especially for street dancers. As kids used to bring their battery-powered ghetto blasters outside with them, this product is the contemporary counterpart that pumps up your mp3 playlist.
There are plenty of smartphone speaker docks on the market at the moment, but few of them offer the sufficiently good sound quality that's required for outdoor projection. This device by Hortense Desodt boasts 360 degrees' emission so that the music can reach the ears of many.
The Spot for Nixon appears to have been modeled on the form of a lantern, making it quite easy to carry. Its fairly cylindrical form is graspable thanks to a looped handle that functions as a wrist-worn wireless remote.
