Guardian: As part of a school project at the Royal College of Art in the UK, four students came up with an innovative electric paint that can be used to create workable circuits on a variety of surfaces. The idea has been so successful that Isabel Lizardi, Matt Johnson, Bibi Nelson, and Becky Pilditch have now formed a design and technology studio called Bare Conductive to sell the paint and a range of kits that demonstrate its uses. It can light a tiny bulb on a birthday card or cause concert posters to play music when touched, but the “paintable wire,” as it is sometimes called, has yet to find its ideal use. Suggestions have been pouring in from the general public, and grant money is allowing the company to expand and better explore its options.
