The method of claim 3, wherein: the first and second electrical contacts are non-coplanar, andapplying pressure to at least one of the substrate or the chip comprises compressing the substrate and the chip between a substantially rigid surface and a substantially compliant surface to adhere the first and second electrical contacts to the first and second traces notwithstanding the non-coplanarity between the first and second electrical contacts. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein bonding comprises applying heat to at least one of the substrate or the chip. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein bonding comprises applying heat and pressure to at least one of the substrate or the chip. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein bonding comprises applying a magnetic field and heat to at least one of the substrate or the chip. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate is flexible but not deformable. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate is deformable but not flexible. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate is flexible and deformable. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the first and second electrical contacts are non-coplanar. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein providing the substrate comprises printing the first and second traces thereon. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein providing the substrate comprises forming the first and second traces thereon by at least one of evaporation, physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, sputtering, lamination, or plating. 15.
