Rubber OLED display developed for stretchable screens
SlashGear —
... onto which carbon nanotubes are sprayed. This makes the material both stretchable and conductive.
Potential uses for the new rubber-OLED technology are spherical or moving displays, such as body-shaped medical systems that light up to train students or indicate health problems. The current prototype is roughly 10cm square (the English translation seems mistaken in quoting it at 100 square centimeters) and can be folded one thousand times with no quality degradation.

... display was able to show weather data.
The rubber-like OLEDs were produced by a layer of carbon nanotubes with a fluoro-rubber compound to produce a stretchy, conductive material. The current prototypes are 100 sq cm and have 256 monochrome pixels.
The super flexible OLED displays will make many possible shapes for the displays of gadgets such as spherical display or display like human face that could change for different expressions etc.

OLED at a Stretch is a Japanese Innovation

... to the limits and it is told that the focus would be to develop spherical objects out of it. These objects could be compressed a numerous number of times without compromising with the resolution quality. There are no color options other than the obvious monochrome graphics at the moment and these are relayed at a modest resolution of 256 pixels. If the purpose is to develop a human shaped display for medical diagnostics, sadly the scope is bleak.

Rubbery OLED promises really freaky displays
CrunchGear —
... A layer of carbon nanotubes, some flouro-rubber, and some electricity are all you need to make a wacky little OLED that can conform to almost any surface. Tokyo researchers have created 100 square centimeters of this material to create at total of 256 monochrome pixels but better versions are on the way. ...
