weather toaster
8 December 2005
toasted bread as an information display device (originally developed in 2001 but somehow still intruiging): a toaster that parses meteorological information from the web & then browns bread with an image of what weather to expect, readable & consumable on the way to work. the image is burned on to the bread by one of 3 stencils, representing sunny, cloudy or rainy conditions.
eventually, the stencils could become more sophisticated, to display detailed weather maps, short text messages & even advertisements on to bread. [bbc.co.uk & theregister.co.uk|via kottke.org]
