Jazz Lamp designed by Ferdinand Alexander Porsche for PAF Studio
1989

Ferdinand Alexander Porsche was a German automotive and industrial designer, best known as the designer of the first Porsche 911. His Jazz lamp, designed in 1989, features an extendable body, and must have been a favorite of Trek production designers, as it was used in The Undiscovered Country, The Next Generation, Voyager, and Enterprise. The screencaps here are from The Undiscovered Country, TNG “First Contact,” VOY “Ex Post Facto,” and ENT “Horizon.”

Bubble Chair designed by Christian Daninos
1968

Christian Daninos was a French industrial designer, whose Bubble Chair remains his best known work. It’s remarkably similar to Eero Aarnio’s Bubble Chair, produced the same year, albeit not hanging. It was used in the Enterprise episode, “The Aenar,” inside of the Aenar city.

I was initially unsure about this attribution, given how many lucite bubble chair variations had been produced since the 1960’s. I eventually found the specific chair used in Enterprise on the Modern Props Deacquisition Auction page, which confirmed for me that this is the Daninos design.

I don’t think I can live up to your lofty expectations

If you’re following this blog you should know that’s already my highest standard for anyone, so this isn’t anything new, I’m just reiterating it.

If you can’t live up to my standards, then maybe you shouldn’t be reading this blog in the first place. You are probably better off reading a different blog.

Look here, strange men wandering around deserts impersonating lizards is no basis for a system of intelligence operations.

Executive authority is derived from a mandate of the masses, not some farcical reptilian ceremony.

You can’t expect to wield supreme power just because you saw a chameleon do the can-can!

I mean, if I went around saying I was going to be the head of the Tal Shiar because I saw a snake shimmy around a bit, they’d put me away!
