Creativos Sin Ideas Michael Idelchik: How The U.S. Can Lead The Next Manufacturing Revolution The vice president of advanced technologies at GE Global Research on the challenges the U.S. faces as a world leader in additive manufacturing. In four years, GE’s newest aircraft engine, the CFM LEAP, will fly with parts made from additive, or 3-D printing processes. Four decades from now, we could be printing an entire engine this way. We may not fully realize it yet, but we are at the dawn of the next Industrial Revolution with additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing itself is not new. The potential impact of additive manufacturing is huge. With additive, you can design parts and products that were previously not possible. For all of its promise, the additive industry is not yet big enough to support large scale industrial applications. In the late 1980s, the U.S. semiconductor industry responded to the growing threat posed by the rise of Japan’s semiconductor industry by forming a government and industry consortia for basic and applied research.
Art Journal Caravan™ | Studio Tangie Another week has flown by. It always amazing me how quickly time goes by and because of that I’ve started becoming much more mindful of wishing my time away. There may be times I’m stuck doing something that I don’t want to do but I’ve become more aware of things I can do to make the time pass more pleasing, like daydream, or imagine the next great thing I’ll create.

86-Year-Old Is The Baddest Great-Grandmother On Instagram The term “young at heart” can sometimes be thrown around fairly easily, but there’s probably no one more deserving of this title than baddiewinkle, an 86-year-old great-grandmother who is just as “groovy” and “rad” as any 16-year-old out there today. Almost every day, “baddie” shares images with her followers on Twitter and Instagram. And there are a lot – more than 200,000 on Twitter and more than 30,000 on Instagram. She’s extraordinarily hip as far as great-grandmothers go, because she seems to know what “twerking” is, uses “Gucci” as an adjective and even does a “pop, lock and drop it” dance in a vine video. The icing on the cake – her insistence that she’s about to “steal your man.” Her Twitter account links to an Etsy shop that seems to be run by a woman that Baddie identifies as her great-granddaughter in one of her photos. Source: Instagram | Twitter | Etsy (h/t: dailymail) “on my way to steal your man” ACID just drop it “trying to live a little longer” “Having dinner at hooters !

Cuándo un Tagline, Cuándo un Claim Tagline, Claim, Selling Line, Letiv Motiv, Brand Idea, Slogan, Motto, Tacle y Mantra, son algunas de las palabras que muchos todavía utilizan de forma indiscriminada para hacer referencia a algunas expresiones verbales de la propuesta de valor de una Marca. Esto no sólo no ayuda a entendernos entre nosotros, sino que construye mucha confusión en nuestros clientes. No es la primera vez que un cliente pudiera preguntarse por qué la agencia de publicidad le está hablando del Claim de la Marca y la de Branding del Tagline de la Marca, o que quiera utilizar la Idea de Marca como Tagline o Claim. En su dia, y lo podéis encontrar en Branzai, ya explicamos la diferencia entre Idea de Marca (Brand Mantra) y Manifiesto Corporativo. Si bien son conceptos similares, distan mucho de su objetivo y uso, aunque podemos hacerlos convivir, hay que ser conscientes de los diferentes modelos de convivencia. Por lo que es un elemento estrategico a largo plazo de nuestra Marca.
An Art Journal page: from start-to-finish No.2 Hi again. I shared my first 'Art Journal page from Start to Finish' last summer and according to my blog-stats it's been my most visited post ... which is really good to know. It's also my most 'pinned' project on Pinterest too ... so I don't think it's too much of a leap to say that somebody out there found it worth reading / useful / interesting ... so I've made another one! I hope this one reaches those who are interested too, so here goes: Here's the finished page in question, so you don't have to scoot all the way down to the bottom to see how it turns out in the end! Now let's go back ... and start from the very beginning ... because it's a very good place to start ... Like all of my posts this week, today's project recycles rubbish. This time, the rubbish in question was a hotel booking confirmation print-out which met with a watery end: As soon as I saw the lovely effect the water had created ... So I did ... Note the plastic glue-spreader. Gel medium isn't essential to this process.
