NYC Resistor member Shelby Arnold has a cool new project: a concertina-folded illustrated notebook complete with popups!
The Pop-Up Concertina is an accordion-folded booklet with pop-ups, covered on both sides with drawings I made using a bunch of .005 micron pens over the course of several months. (…) You can look at it page by page like a book (which never ends, it just turns over and continues in a loop), or you can spread it out and look at it all as one (double-sided) piece. Every way you look at it reveals new connections and interactions – the cut-outs and folds allow the pages and illustrations to change and connect to each other in different configurations.
Shelby is selling copies on Indiegogo. It sounds cool!

I love this, pop-ups are so much fun : )
Errm, what exactly is a 5 nanometer pen?!?
500 micron, maybe? (0.5 mm)
I believe in this case Micron is the brand of pen. So it is the pen which Micron calls .005, not a 5nm pen.
the brand of pen i imagine is “micron” by Sakura. the tip is referred to as “005” and, according to their website, is .2mm :)
