Inflatable Loudspeakers

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the roadie-unions-promise-boycott dept.

fm6 sent in an article running at New Scientist talking about new technology that allows Inflatable Loud Speakers. The technology is apparently patented and there's not a lot of technical details, but I have to say the concept amuses me. And I somehow doubt that this technology will ever be used in high fidelity home systems.

    When i was just a little kid @ church camp, i released a balloon with a note attached and someone actually contacted me who picked up the balloon, but i was a lazy little kid and I never wrote them back.

    I had forgotten about it until just now, and it makes me a little sad that i didn't complete the circuit.

    i took a look at the Newsweek article in your .sig:

    Its fucking ethnocentric garbage, language and themes right out of plutocratic propaganda - hardly "excellent" reading, more like "semi-literate nationalist jingoism".

    Give yourself a break... the Arabs hate america because its 'free'.. yeah thats it.. they hate your 'democracy'. Sheesh.
