Barriers to change stop engineers from innovating. New technology can help change management. If you talk to any of the top management in large engineering organizations, they will undoubtedly say that they want to push their decision-makers and engineering to adopt more streamlined work processes, to do more with less. They want their frontline engineers to increase the productivity of common work processes, to monitor cost alongside manufacturability and to adopt the best new technology to improve upon the status quo. And then they're frustrated when they find that it's hard to get buy-in from engineering. What common barriers to organizational change are these teams missing? And how can they go about overcoming the barriers to change so that the culture change can happen to adopt new technology in the short term and to adapt work processes to reduce workload and increase productivity in the long term. For this conversation, I'm delighted to have Mark Rushton, an engineer with an in-depth understanding of the barriers to change within engineering organizations, especially when it comes to the adoption of new technology that can help engineers work smarter, more efficiently and with less change projects, if only they adopt it. Mark is going to shed light on different types of barriers to change, emotional, tactical even political that inhibit change and stifle innovation. And also what effective communication strategies can help frontline engineers overcome barriers to change.

A designer's initial concept rarely matches up with what is efficient for manufacturing. To reduce time to market and maximize the value of labor, organizations need to help engineers test the feasibility of their designs before sending them to manufacture. Mark Rushton, former Design Engineer at SOLIDWORKS, explains DFM, digital twins, and the power of the digital factory.

Mark comes from a background in design and engineering, and so has been able to bring a lot to the table in his current role as a product portfolio manager at Dassault Systems. Join our discussion surrounding cloud computing, AI and machine learning, and additive manufacturing features you didn’t even know existed in SolidWorks. Pipeline Design & Engineering partners with medical device engineering teams who need turnkey equipment such as cycle test machines, custom test fixtures, or automation equipment but don’t have the bandwidth or resources internally to develop that equipment. You can find us on the web at www.testfixturedesign.com and www.designtheproduct.com .

Hi, this is Mark Rushton of markrushton.com - thanks for listening to my podcast of original or live ambient and electronic music and field recordings. This is Podcast #145 released on Sunday, January 13th of 2019. You just heard my new track, E30 Reveal, which will be released on Spotify and other streaming services on January 17th of 2019. * Now I'm going to play some music from the past. A couple of tracks by Ambient Matyk. What is Ambient Matyk? It's a name I've been releasing live ambient improv recordings under for the past decade or so. I've got a few releases out there as of the start of 2019, but a lot of the past catalog is not easily available, but is getting re-released in the next month or two. Right now, it's four albums of sounds. Plus... a new Ambient Matyk release coming in early February 2019. So if you use Spotify, just go to Ambient Matyk and follow me there, if you want to hear more... Up first is the track Ghosts In This Building, recorded in late 2016, from the album Artisan Sanctuary.... and after that is Russia's Very Low Frequency Station, the title cut of that album... and I think that track was recorded in 2005 or 2006. Thanks again for listening, I'll be back soon with another podcast....   *** Web site and Mailing list: http://www.markrushton.com/ Follow me at Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3o7In5aHAnzK7WYGHY5Khx?si=bi1hTnPKRK2uZ7iolBTZzw Buy downloads at Bandcamp: https://markrushton.bandcamp.com/ Buy compact discs: http://markrushton.com/music/buy-compact-discs/ * This podcast is hosted by Libsyn at: http://ambient.libsyn.com Podcast RSS feed is http://ambient.libsyn.com/rss

Hi, this is Mark Rushton of markrushton.com - thanks for listening to my podcast of original or live ambient and electronic music and field recordings. This is Podcast #143 produced on Sunday, November 18 of 2018. *** As of November 3rd, 2018, I am affiliated with and have paintings at the Leopold Gallery in Kansas City, in the Brookside neighborhood, at 324 W 63rd St. If you're in the Kansas City area, stop by and have a look. My paintings are available for viewing at their web site: leopoldgallery.com That's leopoldgallery.com Link is in the description. Leopold Gallery is also coordinating any private commissions. While that's big news, you're listening to this podcast because of the ambient sounds. Along those lines, I've been releasing new tracks every couple of weeks. If you follow me on Spotify and listen to the weekly Spotify Release Radar playlist, you've probably noticed this. Following me on Spotify is the easiest way to find out about new tracks. Eventually, after I've released 7 or 8 singles, these tracks will be compiled and released as an album. For the foreseeable future, this is how I plan to release new music: a new single track every couple of weeks with an album every 3 to 4 months. Right now, in this podcast, I'll play portions of those singles. First up is a snippet from "Refactoring Rainy Dreams", then part of "Starwaves", followed by a section of "Radio Transmission From the Large Magellanic Cloud, then "Docking in Outer Space", and finally a portion of my forthcoming single, to be released on November 22nd, "Deep Hover".

Hi, this is Mark Rushton of markrushton.com - thanks for listening to my podcast of original or live ambient and electronic music and field recordings. This is Podcast #140 produced on September 13 of 2018. For this podcast, I've extended a track I made for the 350th Disquiet Junto, also known as Selected Insomniac Works. The track is called Dohm Rushton. D-O-H-M Rushton. *** The Assignment: Make very quiet music for very late at night for very fragile psyches. Step 1: It’s the middle of the night, long past dusk and long before dawn. You can’t sleep. Step 2: Think about what kind of music you’d want to hear right now — super quiet, super subtle, unlikely to wake you, potentially to ease you back to the comfort of your pillow, or at least to calm your mind. Step 3: Record the sort of music that Step 2 made you imagine. If I could program my Marpac Dohm, a white noise generator I use to help me sleep, I'd get it to play some of my own sounds, like what you're hearing now. *** Follow me on Spotify or your favorite streaming service to stay aware of my new releases.

Hi, this is Mark Rushton of markrushton.com - thanks for listening to my podcast of original or live ambient and electronic music and field recordings. This is Podcast #139 produced on Friday, August 31 of 2018. In this podcast, I'm revisiting and extending a piece I made in 2012 for the Disquiet Junto. This was from the fourth Junto, started on January 31st of 2012, and involved remixing sounds from Marcus Fisher's track "Never There", originally released on his 2012 album, Collected Dust. While I had all the project files that Fisher originally provided, some of the loops I added in 2012 have become lost, and so I had to leave them out. Then I repeated some sections and extended it out to nearly 10 minutes. If you want, you can hear my original remix on SoundCloud - a link is in the description.
