Was searching for videos on making a camp chair when I came across this video and thought it was pretty cool:

Just the fact that you only need carry some pre-cut nylon material is awesome :)

And the chair for anyone interested:

Good stuff K. SuspectDevice has a nice bushchair concept which I am going to pilfer. Very similar, but his square piece is actually sewed up as a bag with a hemmed in drawstring at the top (like your swim trunks) that lets you pull the top of the bag together like a purse and you tie this string to the top piece of the tripod. At the bottom he has another hem/loop that lets you put a stick in as the bottom cross piece. Why I like the bag as the main compartment is that he says you can use it as a ground mat by shoving leaves and debris in there. Or it can be used a really large carry bag to transport your murder victims (plus other bag uses).
 
Directly reminded me of this one (scroll to 4:14 min):
