Abstract
A communicable information apparatus and method for at least one user including a three-dimensional multilayer flexile stack having a first base layer set, a second intermediate layer set arranged in a stacked relation; and a third slidable layer set moveably embedded within the second intermediate layer set such that the third slidable layer set is reversibly extensible along a first dimension, wherein the third slidable layer set contains communicable information upon at least one face of at least one layer within the third slidable layer set, and wherein the communicable information is substantially one or more indicia for communicating with the at least one user.

A communicable information apparatus for at least one user comprising:
- a three-dimensional multilayer flexile stack including,
- a first base layer set elongated along a first dimension, said first base layer set having a plurality of opposing lobes of arcuate contours;
- and
- a second intermediate layer set elongated along said first dimension, said second intermediate layer set arranged in a stacked relation with respect to said first base layer set, said stacked relation is along a second dimension orthogonal to said first dimension, said second intermediate layer set securely affixed to said first base layer set at least along a distal terminus of said second intermediate layer set such that said first base layer set along with said second intermediate layer set are cooperatively displaceable, at least in part;
- and
- a third slidable layer set including a plurality of faces and moveably embedded within said second intermediate layer set, said third slidable layer set securely affixed to said second intermediate layer set only along a distal terminus of said second intermediate layer set, said third slidable layer set further including a manipulable handle along a proximal terminus, said third slidable layer set reversibly extensible along said first dimension between a third slidable layer set maximally extended position and a third slidable layer set maximally reverse extended position;
- and
- said third slidable layer set containing communicable information upon at least one face of at least one layer within said third slidable layer set, such that information contained on said at least one face of said at least one layer within said third slidable layer set is revealed for communication with at least one user by extending said manipulable handle along said first dimension;
- and
- information contained on at least one face of at least one layer within said third slidable layer set is concealed from communication with at least one user by reversibly extending said manipulable handle along said first dimension;
- and
- a three-dimensional net displacement vector of at least one lobe of said first base layer set within the three-dimensional multilayer flexile stack is Ūxyz, wherein as the manipulable handle of the third slidable layer set extends, the variation in the value of Ūxyz is proportionate.

- and
- wherein said communicable information comprises at least one sequence of indicia which is alphabetic, numeric, alphanumeric, pictographic, a sacred book chapter and verse reference, a color sequence, a geometric shape, a fictional or non-fictional character representation, a non-English language alphabet, an American sign language, an international sign language, or a musical scale.
A communicable information method for at least one user comprising:
- forming a three-dimensional multilayer flexile stack including,
- a step of adding a first base layer set elongated along a first dimension, said first base layer set having a plurality of opposing lobes of arcuate contours;
- and
- a step of adding a second intermediate layer set elongated along said first dimension, said second intermediate layer set arranged in a stacked relation with respect to said first base layer set, said stacked relation is along a second dimension orthogonal to said first dimension, said second intermediate layer set securely affixed to said first base layer set at least along a distal terminus of said second intermediate layer set such that said first base layer set along with said second intermediate layer set are cooperatively displaceable, at least in part;

- and
- a three-dimensional net displacement vector of at least one lobe of said first base layer set within the three-dimensional multilayer flexile stack is Ūxyz, wherein the step of extending the manipulable handle of the third slidable layer set, varies the value of Ūxyz proportionately.
