MusicHArt – L’esperienza nella musica visiva

Faire: Rome

Maker: B.P.S. Business Performance Services S.r.l.

 

The MusicHArt project was started in 2018 by the innovative start-up B.P.S. and its evolved version was launched in 2022 after years of experimentation. In the team Gianmarco Merlini represents the creator. It is inspired by research carried out in the field of synesthesia between music and color to allow artists and composers to transform their musical works into forms of abstract art through software that analyzes the melody and reproduces its relative abstract design. The result is a digital abstract canvas as well as the audio-video recording of the creation of the work.

3D Scanning as part of 3D printing work flow

Recharged by a Wireless Charger system and assisted by a solar cell installed in the upper shell. Unlike other models, however, the Pachamama portable safe is the first in the world to be equipped with a 110 decibel sound alarm system triggered by motion sensors 3D in case of displacement or forced disconnection of the steel cable.

Got Robots? Giant Skating Robot ‘Marauder’

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Nick Donaldson

Home: California, United States

Marauder is a giant (5' tall, 170 lbs) walking, skating and dancing hexapod robot, and is the fourth generation robot using Nick's locking linkage walking mechanism. The locking linkage leg mechanism holds the robot up against gravity so no motor energy is used while standing and very little to walk as the motors never see the mass of the robot. The current RoboGames Best of Show Gold medalist, the robot was recently upgraded with a reactive rainbow lightshow on each leg. Passive wheels on the legs allow the robot to skate at a fast walking pace and Marauder can now deploy the smaller but similar robot Blader directly from its underbelly while skating. Blader is fifth gen and uses the same mechanism and so is code compatible with Marauder while being 1/4 the size.

ArtHouse Candle

Faire: Rome

Maker: Fabrizio D'Eramo

 

ART-HOUSE CANDLE is an innovative project about handmade candle making using modern techniques and traditional methods. Technological tools, such as the CNC milling cutter, are used in the last phases of candle’s creation (decoration or finishing touch), in addition to the classic techniques of engraving, drawing and sculpting. Raw materials are processed following ancient artisan techniques: the materials are melted in bain-marie, adding colours and perfumes. The basic shapes are obtained from handmade molds. The product has some peculiarities (see the picture below) that make it stand out from other classic candles: the final fragrant wax artwork won't burn; infact it will act as a container of a smaller perfumed candle that will not only emit a pleasant scent, but also serve as a light source. Adding a small amount of water in the bowl will prevent the little candle from burning the container once it reaches the end of the wick. Doing so will preserve the wax artwork, that will last forever.
