Smart fabric

Do you know what would be cool? Use this tech to put re-programable moving pictures on shirts. You could porbably do something like that now with these fiber-optic cable fabric.

A pixel is just getting a signal to turn on or turn off. Cram enough of these onto a scren, with a complex pattern, and you get a picture. Fiber optics is also digital, being that it is either on or off. And depending on the material the electrcity/single/light where one wants it. So, couldn't ou tie a bunch of fiber optic cables together and send a singal in a repeated pattern?
