So you can actually make a complicated circuit using a little bit of computation.

It's not just making about it's making self assembled cell phones and circuits.

Jobs had the idea to sell the Apple I as a fully assembled printed circuit board.

There was talk of Foraker for vice president he received one vote, from New York delegate and Cornell president Andrew D. White.

And I think in the next five or 10 years, we'll make the kind of squares that I described and maybe even get to some of those self assembled circuits.

And what's really neat about it well, actually, this all looks like nano artwork, but it turns out that nano artwork is just what you need to make nano circuits.

So if you affix some wires and switches to those tiles rather than to the staple strands, you affix them to the tiles then they'll self assemble the somewhat complicated circuits, the demultiplexer circuits, that you need to address this memory.

In a zippy demo at TED U, AnnMarie Thomas shows how two different kinds of homemade play dough can be used to demonstrate electrical properties by lighting up LEDs, spinning motors, and turning little kids into circuit designers.
