DeepStream's pliable digital sensors overcome that limitation. "Instead of being flat and planar, we can mold them into any imaginable shape or topology, so now you can get into very awkward and difficult spaces," says Crosier. Another advantage: the materials are resistant to hazards like high temperatures and toxins...
...Chirico. Surrealism isn't something Serra thinks about when he sets out to work, but its image bank is something he admits may have seeped into his art. "Does the space in my work have a disorienting effect," he asks, "so that you can see in it the planar shifts of De Chirico? Possibly. It's not something I think about now, but there was a time in Italy when I thought about...

...breakthrough that allowed for this new precision include a new technique to cool an electron until it reached its quantum-mechanical ground state, according to physics graduate student David A. Hanneke, who co-authored the paper. The researchers then carefully controlled the planar and axial motions of the electron through a combination of electric and magnetic forces to measure precisely the frequency responses of the electron...
...Planar's CEO, ever mindful of spending shareholders' money, keeps costs down when traveling too. Says Sarah Teslik, former chief of the Council of Institutional Investors, who invited Krishnamurthy to address her members last year: "Unlike most CEOs, who come with entourages, fly in their own planes and, in general, act royal, we discovered--via the hotel's rooming list--that he had booked the cheapest single in the hotel, right beside the kitchen." --By Julie Rawe
