An interesting article that I just came across now, dealing with research into printing letters and simple Japanese kanji on a new medium: water! The people over at Pink Tentacle wrote this article about the research . It will definitely have some applications. The method is almost ingenious... well okay definitely ingenious, though it roughly creates "water pixels". Which I suppose as water elements would be called "wixels". More correctly it would be "watels" but wixels will probably gain more traction as a usable word. There, you heard hear first... hopefully I just coined a new term.
