Pixel Panels
concrete, feature — By Blaine Brownell on October 18, 2009 at 9:07 pmDeveloped by Bill Price, Pixel Panels are one manifestation of the broader family of products called Translucent Concrete and Transparent Concrete, all of which seek to make concrete a light-transmissive medium. Pixel Panels use concrete as a binder within which a uniform array of polymers is added to provide translucency at a given viewing distance. The ratio of concrete to polymer may be varied to allow for limitless variations (ratios as high as twenty-five percent polymer have been achieved).

The website provided in the book for Pixel Panels is incorrect.
The website listed in the book was once operational, but no longer. It’s been almost four years since Transmaterial was published, and the economy has affected a lot of manufacturers since.
