Nonobject, the forthcoming "design fictions" project from Serbian author Branko Lukic and pals., offers its second preview gadget today at their homepage. Enter "1001 drops," the nanospoon you've all been waiting for.

'What if a spoon could inspire a more savory soup experience? Imagine if its form could provoke an altogether new taste sensation, where each drop of flavor simply bursts in your mouth, over your taste buds, like the popping open of pearl pockets from inside a pomegranate. Of course the conventional spoon has “served” us well for centuries... perhaps it’s time for a change. Poetically, this design asks, “Can a single spoon give the sensation of 1001 spoons at once?”'

Nonobject will be published in Q3 2007. See 1001 drops in video at their website.
