pdmcbride.com chandeliers and lamps

Faire: Pioneer Valley

Maker: Dave McBride

Home: Massachusetts, United States

I make chandeliers, lamps and other unusual lighting objects using metal, wood and resin. Many of the materials I use are discarded or used and I find repurposing shapes and objects into new uses to be great fun for me and to viewers. Persistent ideas that I work with are histories of objects and continuance of space through representations of separation and the impermanence of things. I especially like the challenges and new ideas that unknown flaws of used or recycled parts bring to the work, as these require creative solutions that only seem to come up when I think I have failed.

The Didi Jewelry Project

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Laurel

Home: United States

I sell unique jewelry made by women afflicted by HIV/AIDS and poverty in India. I have partnered with an NGO in Dew Delhi, India and have taught a group of 15 women to make jewelry. I design all the pieces and then teach the ladies I work with in India how to make each design. We then sell the jewelry to help them create the lives they deserve. Our goal is to give them a sustainable income and to help them gain confidence. We are designed locally, yet by purchasing our jewelry buyers are helping women in India, this fact sets us apart and creates a unique purchasing opportunity for customers.

A LoRa-based Neighborhood Emergency Communications System

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Harry Saal

Home: California, United States

Sudden events, such as wildfires or earthquakes inevitably lead to outages in electric power, cell service, VOIP telephones, etc. So when the 'big on comes', how will your family be informed to prepare to evacuate or be able to send a call for emergency help? This project comprises a series of outdoor solar powered repeaters and in-home battery-backed up small devices with touch screen color display to receive and send short messages (think SMS) to neighbors and first responders. LoRa is used as the radio communications link among as many as 255 stations. Network management facilities enable administrators to see who is connected (or not), check battery voltages, ambient temperature, etc. as well as performing remote OTA software updates to those devices that also are WiFi connected.

Buckets of water, lots of tubes, ping pong balls and flaps moving up and down, what can go wrong? This is an interactive outdoor exhibit that engages all ages: younger kids pour water buckets up to recharge the 'battery', older kids plug and unplug the logic gates on the demo table, and those up to the challenge can learn how NMOS digital logic functions in this faithful water-electrical transistor analogy (water height == voltage) 2019 Maker Faire: https://mfairedev.wpengine.com/maker/entry/69344/ 'How do computers add numbers? We will show you how, using a mechanical computer that uses only water as the power source. Follow the digital logic operations gate by gate as your input ripples through the tubes to compute the answer.' We won I think 4 Editor Choice Awards and drew a big crowd!

Social and Autonomous robots: the MARRtino family

Faire: Rome

Maker: Fabio Ferrarin

Innovators by vocation, making use of the collaboration with the Department of Automatic and Management Computer Engineering of the La Sapienza University of Rome, we work for the growth of the MARRtino family. In the space of a few years the family has expanded and perfected it by creating prototypes of educational and "useful" robots. Everything is open source (hardware and software) so it can be extended in any direction without constraints, an evolutionary robot as we usually define it. Based on ROS, a professional software (ROS) used in the best MARRtino research centers has been implemented and tested to perform many typical Robotics and Artificial Intelligence tasks, such as intelligent navigation, human-robot spoken interaction, image analysis.
