Plastic Newspaper

plasticlogicelectronicreadingdevice2 thumb Plastic Newspaper

The plastic electronic newspaper has gone from concept to reality in the last year. A scientist at Cambridge University tried replacing the silicon chips we use in most screens (think iPhone) with plastic. The result is a lightweight and super durable screen.

It seems like color is more like black & white on these devices but that’s what most books and newspapers look like anyways. PlasticLogics in Dresden, Germany is working on developing the device which would carry the latest newspapers, magazines, books and documents for its user; like an iPod for your text documents.

Some future uses for this plastic technology may include interactive product labels for food and medicines, slap-bracelet-style internet, screen integrated clothing and even internet-enabled contact lens.

New Concept: Light-Emitting Wallpaper

wallpaper 51 New Concept: Light Emitting Wallpaper

As if Wonderland Wallpaper isn’t fun enough, I stumbled upon a delightful light-emitting invention from product designer Jonas Sampson. The paper will contain LED lights in any conceivable design. The concealed light display turns on a few moments after a person enters the room.

Not to get mushy on you, but how romantical could this get? Imagine an entire hotel suite lit up like the galaxy, a princess castle for a little girl or a safari adventure trapped in the wall a’la Jumanji. What about a freaky haunted house where decaying corpses flash for only a split moment? Or if you could choreograph several different circuits of LED, you might create a glowing animation (for the record, that’s my ingenious concept.)
