TECHNOLOGY: “DJ” Dr. Kate Stone Gives A TED Talk On Her New Turntables & Fader Made Of Paper (Video)

The work of my team and myself is the realization of my childhood fascinations. We put electronics into paper, and paper is all around us.
Dr. Kate Stone

Physicist and former sheep herder (what?) Kate Stone has spent the past decade working to combine regular paper with conductive inks and tiny circuit boards to offer a unique, magical experience. To date, applications include a newspaper embedded with audio and video, posters that display energy usage in real time, and the extremely nifty paper drumkit and set of DJ decks she demonstrates onstage. See her TED talk video above demoing all that. Now, she is going to make you wait for it. But trust, once she starts playing the instruments she has made possible… you’ll realize the wait was worth it!

Paper Bass. Wow… and we thought ‘Paper Tablet Computers’ were something (well, they ARE)!
