Had the Persian Empire had access to modern electronics, particularly the intricately etched circuit boards found in most devices, their famous woven rug designs might have ended up looking more like Lukas Scherrer’s Memory Rug.
Made from multiple layers of felt so it’s more comfortable under foot than silicon and solder, the rug is adorned with a pattern of chips, conductors, and other shapes you’ll find on a real-life circuit board. But tinkerers might want to pass on this one since it comes fully assembled, which means they can forget about ever upgrading its RAM.
