Description from the designer

设计师的描述

The Venus of Cupertino is a sculptural docking station inspired by the curvaceous forms and symbolism of ancient Venus figurines – she is a fertility goddess for the technology age.

Venus of Cupertino是雕塑的对接站。其灵感来源于古老的维纳斯形象的曲线外形以及象征意义——她是科技时代的孕育女神。

Each Venus is hand-cast in museum-quality resin and is a fully functional iPad docking station. Her hands gently guide any second or third generation iPad onto a charger inconspicuously located in her midriff. A USB cable emerges from a number of points under the sculpture and fits any standard USB port or Apple power adapter for syncing or charging. The charging cable is fully changeable in order to future-proof the docking station against updates to Apple’s iPad connectors.

每个维纳斯像都是适应博物馆品质的树脂手工雕塑品，同时也是全功能的iPad对接站。她的手轻轻地指引二、三代iPad连接到她腹部不起眼的充电器上。USB从雕塑下部的许多点引出连接线，且适合任何标准的USB或是苹果电源适配器来进行同步更新或充电。充电线完全可以改变以便连接站适应日后苹果iPad连接器的更新。
