jae kim: the page

the page is a prototype ereader concept by designer jae kim that uses a semi-transparent e-ink screen to
display image and text. the project aims to find a more appropriate way to interact with newspapers in
a digital context. the concept marries the affordances of print and online newspapers into a new device.
for starters the e reader folds into segments much like newsprint, allowing it to be spread out on a table,
or folded up neatly on the train. this differs from other ereaders, which invent a new format that strays
from the original. beyond the product design kim also designed a flexible grid system that allows users
to see content in a broad way like in the newspaper, while also being able to directly interact and alter
content like on the web.

well, the idea had been showcased many times before, and the video is pretty badly composited, too. it's hard to watch. i'd say skip it.
