| IBM researchers have constructed a 1:180 million scale model of the Matterhorn, the 4478 metre alp on the border of Germany & Italy. The technique is called 'Millipede' and was originally developed for ultra high-density computer storage. My sources ( don't ask) tell me research will soon branch out into using this technique as a means of PURE ANALOGUE MUSIC & IMAGE STORAGE. Tiny laser lenses, also constructed with a variation of the same technique, would then read stored analogue music signals via a form of optical reflection. Imagine how many pure, ultra-high definition analogue tracks you could record onto a medium constructed on such a scale? Problem is the medium itself would be so minute one sneeze and you've lost your record collection! Will we all live long enough to see digital music recording made obsolete by a revolutionary new nano-engineered analogue recording medium.?  |
