BashTech Radio 78 with Materielle Bio: Materielle is a Los Angeles-based techno artist whose deep, dub-driven sound draws heavily from the rhythmic syncopations and atmospheric textures of 90s Detroit techno. Fusing elements of heavy, hypnotic basslines with intricate patterns and immersive reverb, Materielle's music taps into the raw energy and experimental edge of underground techno, with an emphasis on subtle detail and emotional depth. A self-taught producer with a decade-long career in music technology, Materielle has cultivated a distinctive sonic palette shaped by the teachings of pioneering artists like Rødhåd, Claudio PRC, and Richie Hawtin. The project's name, Materielle, is inspired by the delicate art of weaving—an analogy for the artist's approach to music, where sound is crafted through layers and textures, much like fabrics are woven together to create something new. Since 2019, Materielle has honed her craft as a DJ, transitioning seamlessly into production with her track singles, Satin and Organza on Delusional Records and the release of her debut EP, Fabrique on Northern Parallels. The EP, which features the tracks Nylon and Neoprene, with remixes from Mike Derer and Raytek, has garnered attention for its unique blend of hypnotic grooves and emotionally charged atmospherics. Materielle's recent release, a remix of Orly Gal's track, The Man Without a Face, was chosen by Beatport for their November 2024 Techno Shortlist (peak/driving), further solidifying her growing presence in the techno scene. In early 2025, she contributed the track Kevlar to the Synthetik Minds VA Compilation, a benefit release supporting Los Angeles fire relief efforts. The compilation features a lineup of major artists from across the global techno scene, underscoring Materielle's commitment to both artistic collaboration and community impact. Through her work, Materielle invites listeners to immerse themselves in a world of intricate sound design, where the boundaries between space and rhythm blur, creating a meditative yet driving experience. With an approach rooted in both technology and art, Materielle continues to explore the intersection of sound, texture, and human emotion within the ever-evolving techno landscape. Materielle has played LA Compound, Re/Form, SXTCY, Bang Bang SD, Techno Taco Tuesday Las Vegas, and various LA undergrounds. She has supported Daria Kolosova, Ryan Elliott, Lindsey Herbert, Annika Wolfe, and Nur Jaber.

From Defense to Deep Tech: A Mission-Driven PivotSam's professional path began in defense and humanitarian operations, where she witnessed firsthand the enormous waste created by high-tech, mission-critical gear—aircraft components, body armor, and more. Frustrated by the environmental impact and economic loss of disposal, she teamed up with Jamie Meighan, a former RAF officer, to co-found Uplift360: a company that chemically recycles advanced materials like Kevlar and carbon fiber composites, turning waste into high-value resources.Building Uplift360: Science First, Then Everything ElseFounded in 2021 in the UK and now headquartered in Luxembourg, Uplift360 has grown to 16 team members—mostly scientists focused on R&D in materials, chemistry, and engineering. Their Series A launch was announced live on stage at JEC. Until recently, the company operated with no dedicated marketing team, a common thread in the composites industry. That changed with the arrival of an intern named Trisha, who helped reshape their brand presence, website, and press strategy—proving marketing matters, even in deep tech.Dissolving the Indestructible: Breakthrough with KevlarAt JEC, Sam unveiled a major milestone: Uplift360 successfully dissolved and respun para-aramid fibers (known commercially as Kevlar and Twaron) using a proprietary chemical process. These materials, once considered unrecyclable, can now be transformed into new high-performance fibers. With a price tag of nearly €100/kg, this isn't just a sustainability win—it's an economic one.“Kevlar is 80 times more expensive than steel—and we're turning it from a waste burden into a circular asset.”Scaling Impact Across IndustriesWhile Uplift360's first use case is defense, the applications are expanding into aerospace, mass transit, and even outdoor gear—industries previously wary of para-aramid's carbon footprint. Uplift's regenerated fibers offer up to 75% less CO₂ impact compared to virgin materials, making circularity a business case, not just a moral one.The Power of Circular EconomicsSam emphasizes that sustainability alone isn't enough to drive industrial change. What works is circular innovation that aligns with business incentives. Uplift360's pitch: transform waste into supply chain independence and margin growth. In a world increasingly focused on strategic autonomy, especially in Europe, that message is resonating—especially with defense and aerospace leaders.Regulation, Resilience, and European AdvantageUplift360's growth is partly enabled by Europe's progressive stance on waste regulation, green R&D funding, and climate goals. Being based in Luxembourg gives them access to EU-level policy and markets, and Sam sees the region as both a testing ground and a launchpad for global expansion.“Europe may not be sitting on mountains of fossil fuels—but we're sitting on mountains of waste. That's our strategic resource.”Learn MoreUplift360 – Pioneering material regenerationJEC World – The leading international composites show Be sure to follow Sesamers on Instagram, LinkedIn, and X for more cool stories from the people we catch during the best Tech events!

Enviame un mensaje con tu pregunta o comentarioMira el podcast aqui: https://youtu.be/LGaySjL90sYLa controversia sobre los chalecos antibalas adquiridos para las Fuerzas Armadas ecuatorianas ha generado un debate nacional basado más en especulaciones políticas que en hechos técnicos. Como especialista en protección ejecutiva con años de experiencia probando equipos balísticos, decidí investigar a fondo esta situación para ofrecer claridad desde una perspectiva profesional.Miles de ecuatorianos me contactaron preocupados por los rumores de "chalecos de cartón" supuestamente comprados a precios inflados. La realidad es muy diferente: tras verificar personalmente las certificaciones en el National Institute of Justice (NIJ), descubrí que la empresa proveedora, High End Defense Solutions, tiene certificados todos sus productos balísticos - algo excepcional en esta industria donde la mayoría de fabricantes certifican solo algunos modelos representativos.Los chalecos nivel 4 de calidad no son baratos - cuestan aproximadamente $1000-1200 cada uno. Este precio refleja tanto los materiales especializados como el riguroso proceso de certificación al que deben someterse. Las pruebas realizadas demuestran que estos equipos efectivamente detienen proyectiles de alto calibre, cumpliendo con los estándares internacionales más exigentes.Es fundamental entender que las pruebas balísticas nunca se realizan disparando a una persona con el chaleco puesto, como erróneamente se ha sugerido. Se utilizan maniquíes, bloques de gel balístico o soportes especiales que permiten medir con precisión la efectividad de la protección.Si tienes preguntas sobre equipos de protección balística o quieres compartir tu opinión sobre este tema, te invito a dejar tus comentarios en mi canal de YouTube. La seguridad de quienes protegen nuestro país no debería ser un tema político, sino una prioridad nacional indiscutible.

The Stupid History of KevlarBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-stupid-history-minute--4965707/support.
“No capes!”Edna ModeIt's hard to believe that in this age where superhero movies have conquered (and some might say ruined) moviegoing in ways that never seemed possible even 20 years ago, but Disney and Pixar's The Incredibles was truly a revolutionary superhero movie. An animated film utilizing all original characters that lovingly plays with all of the tropes of the superhero genre in suitably comedic ways without ever drifting into parody? Unthinkable at the time and still feels pretty fresh today!But one of the best things The Incredibles (and its underrated sequel, The Incredibles 2) did, almost for the first time ever on the big screen, was explore the logic of superhero costumes. Even though it's a family-friendly animated movie, in The Incredibles, super suits are more than just decorative, they're functional, and thanks to the hilarious and unforgettable Edna Mode, we learned just why some of the favorite design elements of many beloved superhero costumes are strictly forbidden in this world.So on this episode of Does it Fly? we are taking a look at the very concept of the super suit. Not just the why of them in terms of the story, but the how in terms of design and functionality. And as we often do find, we're a lot closer to certain elements in the real world right now than you might think…SUGGESTED VIEWING We based the majority of today's research on this episode on two legitimate animation masterpieces, Brad Bird's The Incredibles and The Incredibles 2. The broader logic of superhero suits has been explored in countless other places, but it's particularly well done in early episodes of The Flash (both the recent CW TV series starring Grant Gustin and the earlier 1990 version starring John Wesley Shipp). We'd like to think that everything discussed in today's episode is applicable across superhero media, though, so feel free to use our findings in your own headcanon as and where appropriate!FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Building the Perfect Super SuitHakeem specifically calls out brand names such as Kapton and Kevlar as being potential “super suit materials” that already exist in the real world. You might recognize Kapton as the material used to make “space blankets” but its unique thermal and conductive properties also make it a key piece used in circuitry where significant heat can be generated by processing power. Kevlar is best known as the material used to make lightweight bulletproof vests and other types of modern body armor. Copper has also shown considerable promise as an antimicrobial that can be incorporated into other materials.Whether or not you have elastic powers, you might want to incorporate technology known as Shape Memory Materials which are currently being perfected by NASA. Many of the materials named here fall under the category of “metamaterials” which will likely become more commonplace in the years to come.Oh yeah, and maybe one day some of these can make you invisible, too. And those “biomimetic sharkskin suits” that Hakeem references? The jury is still out on them.Why The Incredibles is HistoricTamara brings up the fact that The Incredibles was the first Pixar movie about human characters because of the difficulty in getting the subtleties of humans, such as hair, to look convincing on screen. Read more about it here.The Geneva ConventionsHakeem makes the point that superhero suits could also be seen as a way to identify “combatants” similar to the protections offered to soldiers under the Geneva Conventions.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?This isn't the first time we've tackled superheroes on Does it Fly? so you might want to check out our episodes on Batman, The Boys, and Iron Man to get a better sense of the real world concerns that superheroes (and villains) might face.FOLLOW US!Stay in the loop!

A little over three years ago I interviewed Andre Borell, director of Envoy: Shark Cull, a hard-hitting documentary highlighting the archaic shark mitigation systems employed by the Australian government throughout Queensland and New South Wales. The doco, narrated by Eric Banna, was initially aired exclusively on Stan and three years down the line has a much greater global audience through many other popular media streams including Netflix. During today's episode, I grab an update from Andre and an excellent insight into his latest project, the Shark Stop wetsuit. Now, in its second round of funding, the Shark Stop wetsuits were originally designed by surfer Haydon Burford, who wanted to find a wetsuit similar to the impact protection for motorcyclists via Kevlar. Through his research and development, he created what we see now as the bite-resistant wetsuit Shark Stop. Tested by Flinders University on board the Rodney Fox vessel, Andre shares the impressive results and findings, so join me as we delve deeper into the creation, those results, the progress of the business, and the opportunities available for investors seeking to make a change.

The Ultimate Sacrifice: Honoring Corporal Jason Dunham's Legacy In this week's Team Never Quit Podcast, we learn the vivid details of the events leading up to the courage, love, and self-sacrifice made by Medal of Honor recipient, Corporal Jason L. Dunham of Kilo Company, 3rd Battalion, 7th Marines in Karabilah, Iraq. What a leader by example Jason was - to the point of throwing himself onto a grenade in an effort to save his comrades. Marcus' guests, David Kniess (Veteran & Producer) and Lieutenant Colonel Trent Gibson (Dunham's Company Commander), not only bring Jason's story to life, but discuss the compelling and engaging upcoming documentary - The Gift. The Gift documentary is a personal project for David, who had a chance meeting with Corporal Dunham. That chance meeting led to lifelong friendships with the Dunham family and a core group of Marines from Kilo Company. David is actively involved in the Veteran community and has volunteered his time, producing content for Veteran Organizations such as Beteran, Stop Soldier Suicide, John Preston Music, and The Boot Campaign. David also served in the United States Navy aboard the USS Normandy (CG-60), a guided missile cruiser. In this episode you will hear: • Having the Dunham's in my life has enriched my life. (10:52) • It's not just about Jason; it's about everything that has affected all of you all those years. (15:46) • Our generation and the younger generation is standing up and saying, “I'm not gonna wait for anyone. I'm gonna jump out there and teach guys how to surf, how to sing with dogs, start a podcast, and we're talking about our shit. (22:44) • [With regard to this film], all I care about is what Marines, Sailors, Airmen and Soldiers think. For veterans who are still struggling, I want them to watch it and say “if these kid can do it, maybe I can do it too.” (26:44) • I want civilians to know what it's like for young men & women to go to war. (27:23) • [Marcus] If somebody threw one of those “Thank you for service” lines at you – even if you haven't done something – it's coming…” (28:04) • I believe in 3 things as a Marine. I believe in leadership by example; I believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good; and one man can make a difference. (33:06) • Jason had the leadership qualities to lead a rifle squad of American sons. (37:39) • Any leader who inspires his subordinates through personal example, to then return the favor and take care of him – that's a true leader. (47:06) • Dunham was a big boy. He's not someone I would choose to grapple with. (54:38) • Jason took off his Kevlar helmet, placed in on the grenade, and then laid down on it. (64:41) • Knowing what I know of him now, he loved his marines so much. He didn't just take care of them, he practiced taking care of them. Who fucking practices covering a live grenade with their helmet?

The guys discuss how garlic butter without mushrooms is not enough to justify homicide, why it's necessary for goat costumes to be made of Kevlar during outdoor sexy time, and when Damon's face nestled securely in your bosom is the key to safe travel.
How do we rebuild the foundations of a blessed nation? Kirk reveals how the threads of covenants, woven together like protective Kevlar, form the fabric of America's spiritual heritage. From personal promises with God to the sacred bond of marriage, these interconnected commitments create a barrier against moral and spiritual decline. Kirk challenges us to strengthen these foundations by starting with our own homes and marriages, offering a bold 40-day journey to restore the covenant that shapes future generations.

This is our fourth and final episode on the theme of Sci-Fi Fungi, where we dig a little deeper into the current science and future science of mycology with Dr. Alex Moskaluk, a mycologist and professor of biology at the University of Guelph. She specializes in zoonotic fungi, fungal pathogens that can jump from animals to humans and vice versa. We discuss how fungi are evolving resistance to antifungal treatments in much the same way as bacteria are developing antibiotic resistance, developing mechanisms for evading the human immune system, and learning to specialize in human infection. So basically continuing along our apocalyptic sci-fi themes… did you know that some fungi can kill you by growing abscesses into your brain!? But on the brighter side, we also talk about some cool science fictional possibilities these organisms may offer us in the future: some fungi can absorb radiation and could be used to shield space ships and extraterrestrial colonies from space radiation! They can break down moon regolith or rock on other planets to make soil and building materials. And it seems we are just scratching the surface of even more amazing capabilities – like actually reducing the radioactivity of disaster sites like Chernobyl by… well, you can't do that with plain old chemistry so, are they somehow capable of inducing nuclear reactions? Can we create future super-materials one day, like fungal Kevlar or a fungal cable for space elevators? Just a few of the crazy ideas that came out of this conversation, in the finest tradition of digging deeper into the science in the fiction.https://ovc.uoguelph.ca/pathobiology/people/faculty/alex-moskaluk/Buzzsprout (podcast host):https://thescienceinthefiction.buzzsprout.comEmail: thescienceinthefiction@gmail.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743522660965257/Twitter:https://twitter.com/MartyK5463

In this podcast episode, we dive deep into the different compositions of motorcycle brake pads. We discuss the pros and cons of organic, semi-sintered, and sintered brake pads. What does sinter mean? We're glad you asked. Sintering is the process of forming a solid mass of material through heat and pressure without melting to the point of liquefaction. This process involves the atoms in materials diffusing across the particle boundaries and fusing together into one piece. In simple terms, it is combining different materials, usually but not always metals. We give our opinions on which option is the best. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Organic brake pads are made primarily from non-metallic materials, such as rubber, glass, resin, carbon, and Kevlar fibers. These materials are bound together with a high-temperature resin, creating a compound that provides effective braking performance while remaining quieter and less harsh on the brake rotors than metallic pads. Organic brake pads are often chosen for everyday driving because they are quieter and offer a smoother feel. However, for high-performance or heavy-duty applications (like racing or towing), other materials like semi-metallic or ceramic may be better options due to their greater durability and resistance to heat. Get your brake pads from the Law Abiding Biker Store: BRAKE PADS Semi-sintered brake pads are a hybrid type of brake pad that combines the characteristics of both organic and sintered (metallic) brake pads. These pads contain a mix of organic materials and metallic particles (usually copper or steel) that are bonded under high pressure and heat. This blend creates a balanced pad that offers a middle ground between the smooth, quiet braking of organic pads and the durability and heat resistance of fully sintered metallic pads. Semi-sintered brake pads are ideal for those who want a balance between durability and smooth braking, making them suitable for a range of applications from commuter vehicles to light performance and touring bikes. They're popular in the motorcycle world and in light to moderate performance vehicle applications, where a mix of daily usability and resilience to moderate heat is desired. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Sintered brake pads, also known as metallic brake pads, are made from a high concentration of metal particles (like copper, bronze, or steel) that are fused together under intense heat and pressure. This process, called sintering, creates a dense, highly durable material that performs well under extreme temperatures and heavy loads, making sintered pads ideal for high-performance, heavy-duty, and off-road applications. Sintered brake pads are best for vehicles used in rugged or high-performance applications where high durability and heat resistance are necessary. They're commonly used in motorcycles, off-road vehicles, trucks, and heavy machinery, as well as in sports cars that need powerful braking in extreme conditions.

In this episode the Handyman Pros have a discussion about gloves. In construction, gloves are essential for protecting hands from various hazards such as cuts, abrasions, punctures, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Here are some common types of gloves used in construction: 1. Leather Gloves: These gloves are durable and provide good protection against abrasions, cuts, and punctures. They are often used for general construction work, handling rough materials, and operating heavy machinery. 2. Cut-Resistant Gloves: Constructed from materials like Kevlar or high-performance polyethylene, these gloves offer protection against cuts and lacerations from sharp objects such as glass, metal, or blades. They are particularly useful for tasks involving handling sharp materials or using cutting tools. 3. Chemical-Resistant Gloves: Designed to protect against exposure to chemicals, these gloves are made from materials such as neoprene, nitrile, or PVC. They are used when handling corrosive substances, solvents, or other hazardous chemicals commonly found on construction sites. 4. Insulated Gloves: These gloves are insulated to protect against extreme temperatures, making them suitable for work in cold or hot environments. Insulated gloves are often worn by construction workers who work outdoors or in environments with temperature extremes. 5. Impact-Resistant Gloves: Constructed with padding or specialized materials, these gloves provide protection against impact injuries from heavy objects or machinery. They are commonly used by workers who handle pneumatic tools, jackhammers, or work in environments where there is a risk of being struck by falling objects. 6. Waterproof Gloves: These gloves are designed to keep hands dry in wet conditions. They are commonly used for tasks that involve working with water or in rainy environments. 7. High-Dexterity Gloves: These gloves are made from lightweight materials and provide excellent dexterity and flexibility, allowing workers to perform intricate tasks while still protecting their hands. They are often used for tasks that require fine motor skills, such as handling small components or operating machinery with precision. 8. Disposable Gloves: Made from latex, nitrile, or vinyl, disposable gloves are used to protect against contamination from dirt, chemicals, or other substances. They are commonly used for tasks that require frequent glove changes to maintain hygiene standards, such as handling hazardous materials or food. Choosing the right type of glove depends on the specific hazards present in the construction environment and the tasks being performed. It's important for workers to select gloves that provide adequate protection while allowing them to perform their job effectively.
