Nano Advertising

1 comment April 8th, 2008

In my last post I wrote about viewing ads from space. Trying not to ignore an entire demographic I thought I would follow up with a post targeting the opposite end of the spatial scale - Nano Advertising.

An entry in a German science-photo competition, the image shows a fly sporting a set of designer lenses crafted and set in place with a cutting edge laser technique. The glasses fit snuggly on the fly’s 0.08-inch-wide (2 millimeter wide) head.

I am imagining white robed ad scientists unleashing swarms of flies sporting branded attire as the ultimate form of pervasive marketing.
