Creative Change Glass Creations

Faire: Pioneer Valley

Maker: Beth Montemagni

Home: Massachusetts, United States

I am a stained glass artist. I have been working with glass for over a decade. Working in my studio allows me to get lost in my passion to create unique pieces of art. I feel creativity is my serenity, a place to escape from my busy work week ,relax and rejuvenate . I have always been fascinated by color and texture. The combination of metal and glass and the way glass sparkles in the sunshine inspires me. I repurpose unique pieces of metal and wood to frame my glasswork. My style is strongly influenced by nature. My art consists of trees, dragonflies, flowers, ocean scenes, and sunshine.

ArtAtomic by Kristin Henry

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Kristin Henry

Home: California, United States

Science, Nature, and Mathematics are at the core of Kristin Henry’s work. While working in Science and Data visualization, Henry also developed a practice creating artworks, and showing them under the name ArtAtomic. Alternating between developing code and working with more traditional tools like an embroidery needle or a glass dipping pen, Henry is always experimenting. In addition to works on paper, she also works with other media, like computer projections, textiles, wearable art. This exhibit will show many of these. For those familiar with the GalaxyGoo’s Cell Project workshops at past Maker Faires, she will also be bringing pre-made organelle models, so that you can make 3D models of cells at home.

LibraryMed

Faire: Rome

Maker: Epitomea

 

Clients & problems: Healthcare professionals and students. Busy schedules, statistical illiteracy and information saturation make it difficult for them to stay up-to-date. “In the biomedical field alone, more than 1 million articles pour into the PubMed database each year […]” (Nature). The problems are known, but hard to quantify in net terms. Our clients difficulties lies in that periodic and in-depth professional updating activity is a work in itself. Sacrificing patient hours for studying is sometimes not possible. Among the most unpleasant consequences, the discovery that a patient has been treated with an outdated therapy. Such an eventuality would be preferable not to be turned turn into a "necessary evil", a painful trade-off between the number of patients who require treatment and the quality of the treatment that can be administered. In addition to the suffering on a strictly human level, another problem that is becoming more acute is that of lawsuits for "malpractice". Growing, they discourage doctors from riskier practices for patients, as well as young people from embarking on a medical career. Our solution: it can be described as a search engine which, because of an AI algorithm, is able to: - Search for scientific articles related to a specific query and summarize their content; - Classify the results on the basis of various parameters (e.g. methodological value, citations, impact factor), assigning them a qualitative value, thus identifying the most solid research; - Aggregate the results based on the aforementioned parameters; - Produce an output that can be consulted quickly, listing the sources on which the analysis was conducted to draw up an effective overview on which to plan an update; - Assisting researcher in scientific writing & data production; - Automatic meta-analysis. Innovation: First, we will move away from the DSS (Decision Support System) approach of our main competitor, Uptodate.com, to embrace a full AI paradigm. Then, we will find a niche in the scientific publication sector, by creating a set of tool for many scientists willing to publish high quality research. By doing to, our analytic efficiency will further increase. We already have a registered trademark and an industrial patent.

One Health Lab

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università di Siena

 

The bioeconomy is not only the set of activities of food, bio-energy, and bio-materials production, but includes all activities that transform biological resources into other products. In many cases, as in the forestry sector and in many areas of biomaterial production activities, no processes are involved biotechnological but biophysical or biochemical, which makes the technical and scientific skills of the Laboratory absolutely suited to this time of crucial transition, accepting the challenge of integrating the bioeconomy and the circular economy into a new concept known as the circular bioeconomy. The Demonstrator to be implemented by the Macronode@UNISI ensures the marriage of innovation (generation of know- how), quality and sustainability in a multidisciplinary and multiproduct vision (use of know-how) proposing and using green and bio-based solutions: a model that aims at real circularity, a unicum in the eco-sustainable life sciences sector nationally and internationally. The experimental laboratory will be organized as a Bioeconomy Innovation Lab with the aim of creating a platform for the development of products derived from a waste, capable of making the process of formulating a new product and put it on the market, connecting the raw material and subcontractor industries, as well as offering the ability to carry out quality control testing, stability, material studies and realization of product prototypes.
