Bruce Sterling, attending a conference on the future of printing in New Jersey, has kept a running log of all the genuinely weird and futuristic things that the speakers have said there:
"We're in the business of putting goo on a substrate."
"We need a taxonomy for 'printing-that-is-no-longer-printing.'"
"Your mega-customer, the anchor tenant in the mall of your dreams"
"It's the business of killing trees and putting chemicals on them."
"Baseball cards that suck in energy and run e-ink animated displays"
"They're not hiding, they're just selective."
