Abstract
A method for writing labels to an optical medium is disclosed. The optical medium includes a label reflecting layer and a label recording layer. The method includes deforming a location within the label recording layer wherein deforming the location within the label recording layer causes a corresponding portion of the label reflecting layer to reflect light at an angle based upon the deforming, and repeating the deforming for a plurality of locations within the label recording layer. The repeated deforming causes a label to be presented on the optical medium.
