Type Yourself a Drink


Thanks to Morskoiboy’s creation, you can now touch type your own Tom and Jerry. This syringe-based keyboard pumps various colored potables through 136 tubes totaling 30 meters of length. But before being poured into the glass, the liquid is pushed through the appropriate parts of a 14 segment display, indicating the letter you pressed. According to Morskoiboy: “My machine converts words into cocktails. And, yes, it does work. Now I can literally taste the flavor of my words.” I wonder what E-P-I-C W-I-N tastes like?
