Electrical circuitry is produced on the surface of an organic polymer. The electrical circuitry is produced on a support, and a polymerizable composition is brought into contact with the support and the circuitry. The polymerizable composition is polymerized while in contact with support and the circuitry to produce a solid, organic polymer. The electrical circuitry becomes adhered to and partially embedded in a surface of the solid organic polymer. The support may be removed subsequent to the polymerization step to expose the circuitry at the surface of the solid organic polymer.

A multi-conductor bus with radially arranged conductor wires on which addressable bead devices that may incorporate light-emitting diodes (LEDs) or other surface mount devices (SMDs) can be easily mounted. The radial bus is designed to provide an improved range of flexibility and motion while allowing for easy addition of bead devices along its length that utilize self-addressing bus protocols such as cascading device protocols. The design of the flexible, interruptible radial bus facilitates the use of pass-through and interrupted paths along the bus that simplifies the installation of addressable devices along the bus such as the bus-mounted bead devices disclosed herein.

A method of manufacture and an integrated functional multilayer structure, includes a substrate film formed or formable so as to exhibit a selected shape; and a number of functional, preferably including optical, mechanical, optoelectrical, electrical and/or specifically, electronic, elements, such as conductors, insulators, components and/or integrated circuits, provided upon the substrate film in the proximity of the shape; wherein the substrate film has further been provided with a structural tuning element, optionally including an elongated, circumferential or other selected shape, said structural tuning element being configured to locally control induced deformation, optionally including stretching, bending, compression and/or shearing, of the substrate film within said proximity of the shape.
