The String and Glue of our World – Understanding Composite Materials

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Ned Patton

Home: California, United States

“The String and Glue of our World” is a book about the science, engineering, history, and art of making things out of composites told in a manner that is approachable, engaging, and entertaining, even for the casual reader. It is not intended to replace or even be a textbook on the subject – there are plenty of those. It is also not intended for the serious practitioner who has lots of experience with composites and needs a reference book, since there are lots of those as well. In other words, you don’t have to be a Ph.D. engineer or scientist to understand the book and appreciate the significance and beauty of composite materials.

OpenPipes Revolutionizes the DIY Pipe Organs

Faire: Rome

Maker: OpenPipes

Home: Argentina

If you’ve ever dreamed of playing a majestic pipe organ but thought it was out of reach, think again. OpenPipes, a remarkable open-source project hailing from Argentina, is empowering DIY enthusiasts worldwide to create their very own Virtual Pipe Organ. With an array of accessible plans and innovative technology, OpenPipes is democratizing the traditional sound of Pipe Organs like never before. At the heart of OpenPipes are its comprehensive organ console plans, meticulously designed to guide enthusiasts through the creation process. These plans include an Arduino-controlled Midi Pedalboard, allowing for precise control and expression. The full control circuit, also Arduino-based, provides a seamless interface between the musician and the instrument, enhancing the playing experience. OpenPipes goes beyond the basics, offering a range of Midi peripherals to expand the possibilities of the organ. From traditional buttonboards to OLED screens managers, these peripherals add depth and flexibility to the instrument, allowing musicians to unleash their creativity fully. One of the standout features of OpenPipes is its very own Linux-based pipe organ audio engine, aptly named Pipebian. This powerful audio engine brings the organ to life, faithfully reproducing the rich and resonant sound of traditional pipe organs. With Pipebian, musicians can immerse themselves in the grandeur of organ music, all within the realm of their DIY creation. But OpenPipes is not just about technical specifications and digital wizardry. It is a project that encourages global participation and camaraderie. By opening up the world of pipe organs to a wider audience, OpenPipes is fostering a vibrant community of enthusiasts who share a passion for this magnificent instrument. Whether you’re a seasoned musician or an aspiring hobbyist, OpenPipes invites you to join the movement and embark on a musical adventure.
