Making Math

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Nonscriptum LLC

Home: California, United States

We have written the books Make:Geometry, Make:Calculus and the upcoming Make:Trigonometry for Make's publishing arm. We will display many 3D printed, paper, and LEGO models that help teach and visualize hands-on math concepts and encourage participants to play with them and think about the concepts. For example, we teach the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus with a handful of 2×2 LEGO bricks and a baseplate. This will be a 'meet the authors' booth, with a chance for people to see the demos in our books live and interact with us.

Ternary Computer System

Faire: Rome

Maker: Claudio La Rosa

 

We design a new type of microprocessor, which works with ternary logic (instead of the usual binary). The immediate benefits of the ternary are: Compact information much better (than binary system); It reduces the size of the chips (especially the memory, which today occupies most of the surface). Our idea offers technological advantages that enable a great leap forward in traditional processing and supercomputing. It is optimally applied to the emerging fields of artificial intelligence and the brain-machine connection. Some neurobiological research groups are implementing neural networks with modeling of neurons using three states, because this better matches the activity of neurons. We design, write specifications (ISA) and implement ternary microprocessors.
