Just last month, Google introduced live cases for its Nexus devices, namely the 5X and 6P, which includes an actual case and live wallpaper to boot. Now they’re introducing a new collection created by “one of the world’s greatest living artists” Jeff Koons. You can choose from among three models, all of which are inspired by his famous Gazing Ball series. They’re also in limited edition, so each of the live cases are numbered.
The three cases, available for a limited time in the US, are called Bust (which of course features a monument bust), Mailbox (a mailbox that looks like a tripod), and Diana (a sculpture which may or may not be the goddess Diana). Aside from the physical cases, you also get a live wallpaper, which happens to be Koons’ first ever live action video artwork. In the “Gazing Ball Ballet” collection, he recreated twenty-eight moments from the classic ballet, Swan Lake. You just double tap your screen to see the wallpaper come to life.
In fact, your wallpaper will be changed every day with a new vignette from /swan Lake. You will also be receiving artwork created by Koons as well on your Live Case Editions app. These artworks include digital art, his inspirations, favorite art, etc. The case also has a shortcut button at the back which you can program as a one-tap button which can either go to a digital museum, open the digital art collection, or open any app that you choose.
You can get any (or all, if you prefer) of the three Live Cases from the Google Store for just $40 each. Of course they are only compatible with the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P.
