San Francisco based electro rock outfit, LILOFEE, are set to release a 7" with Echo Park's Origami Vinyl and Los Angeles based Future Sounds Records on December 1st.

think of it as origami – very high-tech origami.
Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a technique for fabricating three-dimensional, single-crystalline silicon structures from thin films by coupling photolithography and a self-folding process driven by capillary interactions.
