Description
 
Inspired by our Fashioning Technology book, we decided to create a starter kit of smart materials. This is designed to be an affordable way to sample materials that are often available only in much larger quantities. Create designs that only show up under certain conditions; heat sensitive, glow in dark, color changing under different light conditions. Sculpt the polymorph plastic into whatever shape you'd like. Have fun and re-make your world!

Question March 13, 2009
Reviewer: Kelly Ness from Long Beach, CA United States  
I have purchased Syuzi's book separately already.  Will you be putting together a smart materials sampler without the book for those of us who have it already?
