Xerox Corporation scientists have invented a way to make prints whose images last only a day, so that the paper can be used again and again.

Absolutely amazing. Paper as a reusable digital platform. This would have some amazing uses beyond the office uses state by IBM. Imagine your notes being completely out of context and arrows and highlights referring to emptiness on the page. Or using the prints of photos as underlays for a drawing on top of them. As the paper gets used over and over are we creating a digital palimpsest in a sense?

Erika La Tour Eiffel, like Eija-Riitta Berliner-Mauer – the woman who married the Berlin Wall, is an “objectum sexual”, people who fall literally in love with buildings and objects. They have sex and relationships with them; their passion as ardent as any human relationship.
