Electronic Circuits That Melt Into Your Body
2:48AM Jesus Diaz | It makes me nervous too. I’m not so keen on the idea of circuits enveloped in a silk substrate, which melts into your body leaving just nanometres-thick layers of electronics. But it’s for the best, trust me on this one. More »

Xerox Develops Ink To Print Circuits On Nearly Anything
3:07AM Rosa Golijan | Wearable electronics aren’t news, but being able to make them cheaply and easily is. Xerox has developed an ink with which you can print circuits onto plastic, film, fabric and nearly anything you can think of. More »

CD Case Features Built-In Theremin And Artistic Circuitry
6:10AM Dan Nosowitz | San Francisco electro artist Moldover, like Beck before him, figured out a way to make physical music purchases superior to digital: embrace the physical. In Moldover’s case, that meant cramming an actual working theremin into the CD case. More »

Hmmmm… Breakfast
11:30PM Jesus Diaz | Some people would call these edible circuits—made of all things sugar, spice, and everything nice—”candy.” I call them breakfast ready to be dunked in 100% fat chocolate milk. [Flickr via Boing Boing] More »

Cara Lamp is Crystal-Like LED and Silver Circuit-Board Beauty
9:18PM Kit Eaton | Those little interlaced blades of ice you sometimes get on the edge of ultra-cold things in wet air: that’s the image that popped into my head on seeing the Cara lamp. It’s by designer Andreas Ostwald and that fragile crystal-like shape is composed of interlocked flat white circuit boards with silver tracks, sprinkled with 70 white LEDs. How lighting should be to my mind: simple, elegant and stunning. Though presumably it’s designer status gives it a price premium that’ll place it beyond my lustful reach.

Fragile Future Modular Lighting System Sprouts LED Dandelions From Your Wall
2:45AM John Mahoney | Make a wish, blow, see if the LED dandelion seeds sprouting from the circuit board on your wall stay or go. That seems to be the idea with Fragile Future 2, a cool modular lighting system by Dutch house Design Drift. Each piece is approximately 20×30cm, and they can be combined in groups of up to 50 for custom wall-climbing circuits. I’ll take some.
