Interesting and certainly unique, it's nice that they focus so much on the design process. And isn't that the point of this sort of creative project, to craft something unique that you yourself consider beautiful?
Personally, I'd like to make myself a Sandbender computer in the style of William Gibson's Idoru, but it would probably turn out much uglier than the sleek bulbous device which I imagine from the description:
>Chia looked down at her sandbenders. Turned off the red switch. "Coral," she said. "These are turquoise. The ones that look like ivory are the inside of a kind of nut. Renewable."
>"The rest is silver?"
>"Aluminum," Chia said. "They melt old cans they dig up on the beach, cast it in sand molds. These panels are micarta. That's linen with this resin in it."
Shame that PCBs are so rigid and rectangular, but you could probably fit a small SBC into a blob-like shell.
