A Berlin firm has created an alternative keyboard - made of punchbags.

德国一家公司近日推出一款另类“沙袋键盘”。

To type, users simply hit or kick the key they want.

Created by German firm Bless for the 2nd Istanbul Design Biennial¹, the firm said it wanted to make typing a 'full body experience'.

Bless is a fashion/design studio created in 1997 by Ines Kaag, based in Berlin, and Desiree Heiss in Paris.

"We find it terribly outdated² to have a day split into a working time and a leisure time," the firm's founders³ said.

'The Workoutcomputer constitutes a new live/work balance manifesto⁴.

'A computer with a distributed keyboard made of punching bags, the Workoutcomputer ensures that typing becomes a full-body experience.'

Each of the pads contains a sensor⁵ linked to a laptop, allowing messages to be written and sent.
