Fluid Forms new golden earrings initiative is a unique approach to personal manufacturing. The idea is to produce individualized earrings based on a geographical location of your choice. The design is actually a street map of that location based on data obtained from open street maps. 
 
Which location should you choose? Perhaps it’s a very special place from your past, where you went to school or met your spouse. Maybe it’s just a radical intersection. 
 
To participate you must head over to Fluid Forms’ KickStarter page, where a donation can get you in on batch number one. You’ll be contacted by them to indicate your desired location. They’ll whip up 50 unique pieces, etched in an acid bath and then gold plated.
