Well, isn't this interesting? I wonder if they would have to stir the pail before each use?


Edit: Hmm. Link might not be working. What the article says is, at the North Dakota State University, they are working on a way to make computers into a liquid of chips, light emiiters, etc., that can be painted or applied to anything.

I can just imagine an aerosol can with the label "Computer display 1 sq m", "shake well before use".

In my mind it doesn't work, but it'll be interesting to see what they come up with.

Yeah, it seems too weird to work, but hey, seems neat.

By the way, the link worked for me.

That's fascinating. I've heard about the idea of flexible computers in clothing before, but making them out of a special paint is a really cool idea.
