Seiko’s ‘active matrix’ E Ink watch will be on sale by end of 2010

admin — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 08:04:36 +0000

It’s always good to see a concept, particularly one as appealing as Seiko’s “active matrix” E Ink watch, make it to retail product. The company’s had a thing for E Ink timepieces for a while now, but what sets this new one apart is the supposed 180-degree viewing angle it affords — and, of course, those retro good looks do it no harm either. Then there’s also the radio-controlled movement, which receives its time from the nearest atomic clock, and the solar cells framing that electrophoretic display. All very nice and neat, but the best news is that it might (might!) be priced within reach of regular Joes and Vlads like us. We’ll know soon enough, a retail release is expected by the end of the year.

Screamdance began in 2005 after ‘Versus’ a collaborative art exhibition between Chris Edser and Sam Barratt. Yianni Hill was invited to join the team to help work on the 2008 ‘Schaffas’ exhibition. Now it is sometime in the future and Screamdance are still organising exhibitions, drawing on things, making you wear their t-shirts and most importantly, screaming whilst dancing.
