Mark Shaw does a bold on-stage demo of his extreme-hydrophobic nanotech coating. The poster board looks to be a plain white rectangle… and then… (see photo sequence below).

It reminds me of my first TED Talk… I also did a bold on-stage demo of nanotech-treated materials to repel liquids… but I was wearing the technology, and it did not go at all like I planned…

Mark’s TED Video just went online.

    The pattern startes to reveal itself, but the "D" is a bit sticky… For most of the the remainder of his talk, the placard read "TE"

    …and then…

    A standing ovation for a delayed drip!

    And the unsung heroes of a messy demo… working in the shadows as the next speaker comes on stage

    Do you have photos of your demo? I am sure that would be interesting to see. These are nicely done.
