K. Eric Drexler is considered a founding figure for modern ideas about manufacturing nanomaterials. Though the idea of a nanofactory has been a subject of his writing since the 1980’s, his book “Nanosystems: Molecular Machinery, Manufacturing, and Computation” sets forth some good basic definitions of what molecular manufacturing is. As published: Molecular manufacturing: the construction […]
Research Book Research Book done in Thomas Mical’s Studio, Spring 2009 “The history, theory, and debate behind museums, archival systems, and research institutions.” Just as a reference.
http://21stcenturyscholar.org/ DECLINE OF THE CULTURE OF TEACHING PART 1 + 2 “I think a lot about the culture of organizations and what I experience today is a de-valuing of teaching – that we are all replaceable parts. If we standardize the curriculum and all teach to the same syllabus then we will have greater efficiencies. […]
NanoBiomimetics looks to nature for inspiration for nanomaterial structures that have many beneficial qualities. – Self-cleaning materials: The study of the nano surface structure of lotus leafs and water-striders (insects) has generated interest in materials that reduce contaminant build-up just in the way they are structured. – Stickiness: gecko and spider feet are structured for […]

a) contemporary case-studies: public vs. private library b) contemporary case-studies: museums, other archives in NY c) contemporary case studies: active archives (short term preservation) such as news or resources d) paradigm shift for typology
Highlights: nanobiotechnology- science and technology of the modulation of cell function on the engulfment of a nano-sized entity by the cell. nanomedicine- field of science based on cellular uptake of targetable nano-sized materials that can be used in drug delivery, imaging and diagnostic purposes, biomarkers, and ex-vivo and in-vivo sensors. Nanomedicine deals with nanomaterials between […]
