SCHEDULE
• In the Cube Gallery (noon-4pm) you will find "The Space Between," a new project from Dr. Fahamu Pecou that works to dispel the pervasive myth of violence and discord within the Black male community, and seeks to both normalize expressions of care, concern, and compassion while challenging the pervasive image of Black violence and trauma.
• Jessica Brooke Anderson will be offering visitors (one at a time) an opportunity to select a gift from her collection of family objects. She recently inherited 3 houses worth of heirlooms, and is using this opportunity to redistribute these items to the community. In exchange for "adopting" a piece of her family history, she is asking to photograph each object with its new owner, in hopes of creating a new family tree, made up of strangers, all interconnected through the lives and objects that came before.
• Participate in a self-led writing exercise / creativity booster in the space outside of Arvin Temkar’s studio. Arvin is a writer and photographer whose work examines complexity, tension, and hope in a multiracial, multiethnic America, and has been published in major publications across the country. He will also be displaying some of his photography in the windows of his studio.
• Visit the Teller Productions Workshop to observe artist Scottie Rowell’s shadow puppet play time and experience Push. Press. Pull., an ever-changing art installation exploring human’s love of buttons. Only one family/group/pod allowed in the space at time.
• Jasmine Williams and Sierra King are excited to share with the public in progress works across both of their disciplines of printmaking and archiving. The public at large is welcomed into their space, limited to 2 at time, to view THROUGHLINE - where the lives of Black Women Artists intersect. Additionally there will be limited edition "I AM WOMAN" tote bags that were hand printed in the art lab and older edition prints available to purchase by Jasmine Nicole Williams.
• FRANK/ie CONSENT will present ‘Love Shrines,’ their first installation of shared things, in which their new album (collaborated with The Cradle) will play with casual, non-demanding events happening and video documentation of their recent love baptism. After the installation, there will be a live music performance by FRANK/ie CONSENT and the generosities of people they love. The performance will begin around 5:30.
• Floyd Hall will be presenting Seeing + Sounds, featuring a series of streaming recorded audio content in addition to visual projections.
• From 2-3:30, Matriarc Society will be providing a photo shoot session with a local femme music maker at no cost. Guests may observe the process from the windows on the corner of Magnolia Lane and Morosgo Drive.

There was a major and organized effort by cigarette manufacturers in the 1930s to market cigarettes to women and normalize the practice. Previously, female smokers were associated with "loose morals," but the tobacco industry, led by figures like Edward Bernays, worked to turn cigarettes into a symbol of female liberation and sophistication.
In 1929, public relations pioneer Edward Bernays, hired by the American Tobacco Company, orchestrated a publicity stunt during New York's Easter Sunday Parade. He paid young, fashionable women to march while openly smoking Lucky Strike cigarettes. The event, framed as a protest against gender inequality, was covered widely by newspapers and repositioned smoking as a symbol of female emancipation and defiance of social taboos. Lucky Strike launched its influential "Reach for a Lucky instead of a sweet" campaign in 1929. This highly successful ad campaign targeted women's insecurities about weight by promoting cigarettes as a way to stay slender. This approach led to a 300% increase in Lucky Strike sales in the first year alone.
During the Great Depression, ads for cigarette brands like Lucky Strike, Chesterfield, and Camel portrayed glamorous, wealthy women in luxurious settings. The intention was to allow average women to feel they could adopt some of this sophistication by smoking the same brand.
The intense marketing efforts had a dramatic and tragic long-term impact on women's health. The percentage of women who smoked increased significantly. Women's smoking rates jumped from 5–6% in 1924 to over 12% by 1929. As a direct result of the rise in smoking, lung cancer rates in women also increased. In 1987, lung cancer surpassed breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer death among American women.

That is, a section of a cylinder where the planes intersecting are not parallel. The eye of the vortex appears to be one of the foci of the ellipse. Round objects added to stop the eye from normalizing the shape, as it will do, no matter how many times I've told it not to.
The Normalizing Machine is an interactive installation presented as an experimental research in machine-learning. It aims to identify and analyze the image of social normalcy. Each participant is asked to point out who looks most normal from a line-up of previously recorded participants. The machine analyzes the participants’ decisions and adds them to its aggregated algorithmic image of normalcy.

Advanced Additive Manufacturing for Hypersonic Aircraft
Utilizing new methods of fabrication and construction, make it possible to use additive manufacturing, dramatically reducing the time and costs of producing hypersonic platforms from missiles, aircraft, and space capable craft. Instead of aircraft being produced in piece, then bolted together; small platforms can be produced as a single unit and large platforms can be produces in large section and mated without bolting. These techniques include using exotic materials and advanced assembly processes, with an end result of streamlining the production costs and time for hypersonic aircraft; reducing months of assembly to weeks. Overall, this process greatly reduced the cost for producing hypersonic platforms. Even to such an extent that a Hellfire missile costs apx $100,000 but by utilizing our technologies, replacing it with a Mach 8-10 hypersonic missile of our physics/engineering and that missile would cost roughly $75,000 each delivered.
Materials used for these manufacturing processes are not disclosed, but overall, provides a foundation for extremely high stresses and thermodynamics, ideal for hypersonic platforms. This specific methodology and materials applications is many decades ahead of all known programs. Even to the extend of normalized space flight and re-entry, without concern of thermodynamic failure.
*Note, most entities that are experimenting with additive manufacturing for hypersonic aircraft, this makes it mainstream and standardized processes, which also applies for mass production.
What would normally be measured in years and perhaps a decade to go from drawing board to test flights, is reduced to singular months and ready for production within a year maximum.
Unified Turbine Based Combined Cycle (U-TBCC)
To date, the closest that NASA and industry have achieved for turbine based aircraft to fly at hypersonic velocities is by mounting a turbine into an aircraft and sharing the inlet with a scramjet or rocket based motor. Reaction Engines Sabre is not able to achieve hypersonic velocities and can only transition into a non air breathing rocket for beyond Mach 4.5
However, utilizing Unified Turbine Based Combine Cycle also known as U-TBCC, the two separate platforms are able to share a common inlet and the dual mode ramjet/scramjet is contained within the engine itself, which allows for a much smaller airframe footprint, thus engingeers are able to then design much higher performance aerial platforms for hypersonic flight, including the ability for constructing true single stage to orbit aircraft by utilizing a modification/version that allows for transition to outside atmosphere propulsion without any other propulsion platforms within the aircraft. By transitioning and developing aircraft to use Unified Turbine Based Combined Cycle, this propulsion system opens up new options to replace that airframe deficit for increased fuel capacity and/or payload.
Enhanced Dynamic Cavitation
Dramatically Increasing the efficiency of fuel air mixture for combustion processes at hypersonic velocities within scramjet propulsion platforms. The aspects of these processes are non disclosable.
Dynamic Scramjet Ignition Processes
For optimal scramjet ignition, a process known as Self Start is sought after, but in many cases if the platform becomes out of attitude, the scramjet will ignite. We have already solved this problem which as a result, a scramjet propulsion system can ignite at lower velocities, high velocities, at optimal attitude or not optimal attitude. It doesn't matter, it will ignite anyways at the proper point for maximum thrust capabilities at hypersonic velocities.
Hydrogen vs Kerosene Fuel Sources
Kerosene is an easy fuel to work with, and most western nations developing scramjet platforms use Kerosene for that fact. However, while kerosene has better thermal properties then Hydrogen, Hydrogen is a far superior fuel source in scramjet propulsion flight, do it having a much higher efficiency capability. Because of this aspect, in conjunction with our developments, it allows for a MUCH increased fuel to air mixture, combustion, thrust; and ability for higher speeds; instead of very low hypersonic velocities in the Mach 5-6 range. Instead, Mach 8-10 range, while we have begun developing hypersonic capabilities to exceed 15 in atmosphere within less then 5 years.
Conforming High Pressure Tank Technology for CNG and H2.
As most know in hypersonics, Hydrogen is a superior fuel source, but due to the storage abilities, can only be stored in cylinders thus much less fuel supply. Not anymore, we developed conforming high pressure storage technology for use in aerospace, automotive sectors, maritime, etc; which means any overall shape required for 8,000+ PSI CNG or Hydrogen. For hypersonic platforms, this means the ability to store a much larger volume of hydrogen vs cylinders.
As an example, X-43 flown by Nasa which flew at Mach 9.97. The fuel source was Hydrogen, which is extremely more volatile and combustible then kerosene (JP-7), via a cylinder in the main body. If it had used our technology, that entire section of the airframe would had been an 8,000 PSI H2 tank, which would had yielded 5-6 times the capacity. While the X-43 flew 11 seconds under power at Mach 9.97, at 6 times the fuel capacity would had yielded apx 66 seconds of fuel under power at Mach 9.97. If it had flew slower, around Mach 6, same principles applied would had yielded apx 500 seconds of fuel supply under power (slower speeds required less energy to maintain).
Enhanced Fuel Mixture During Shock Train Interaction
Normally, fuel injection is conducted at the correct insertion point within the shock train for maximum burn/combustion. Our methodologies differ, since almost half the fuel injection is conducted PRE shock train within the isolator, so at the point of isolator injection the fuel enhances the combustion process, which then requires less fuel injection to reach the same level of thrust capabilities.
Improved Bow Shock Interaction
Smoother interaction at hypersonic velocities and mitigating heat/stresses for beyond Mach 6 thermodynamics, which extraordinarily improves Type 3, 4, and 5 shock interaction.
6,000+ Fahrenheit Thermal Resistance
To date, the maximum thermal resistance was tested at AFRL in the spring of 2018, which resulted in a 3,200F thermal resistance for a short duration. This technology, allows for normalized hypersonic thermal resistance of 3,000-3,500F sustained, and up to 6,500F resistance for short endurance, ie 90 seconds or less. 10-20 minute resistance estimate approximately 4,500F +/- 200F.
*** This technology advancement also applies to Aerospike rocket engines, in which it is common for Aerospike's to exceed 4,500-5,000F temperatures, which results in the melting of the reversed bell housing. That melting no longer ocurrs, providing for stable combustion to ocurr for the entire flight envelope
Scramjet Propulsion Side Wall Cooling
With old technologies, side wall cooling is required for hypersonic flight and scramjet propulsion systems, otherwise the isolator and combustion regions of a scramjet would melt, even using advanced ablatives and ceramics, due to their inability to cope with very high temperatures. Using technology we have developed for very high thermodynamics and high stresses, side wall cooling is no longer required, thus removing that variable from the design process and focusing on improved ignition processes and increasing net thrust values.
Lower Threshold for Hypersonic Ignition
Active and adaptive flight dynamics, resulting in the ability for scramjet ignition at a much lower velocity, ie within ramjet envelope, between Mach 2-4, and seamless transition from supersonic to hypersonic flight, ie supersonic ramjet (scramjet). This active and dynamic aspect, has a wide variety of parameters for many flight dynamics, velocities, and altitudes; which means platforms no longer need to be engineered for specific altitude ranges or preset velocities, but those parameters can then be selected during launch configuration and are able to adapt actively in flight.
Dramatically Improved Maneuvering Capabilities at Hypersonic Velocities
Hypersonic vehicles, like their less technologically advanced brethren, use large actuator and the developers hope those controls surfaces do not disintegrate in flight. In reality, it is like rolling the dice, they may or may not survive, hence another reason why the attempt to keep velocities to Mach 6 or below. We have shrunken down control actuators while almost doubling torque and response capabilities specifically for hypersonic dynamics and extreme stresses involved, which makes it possible for maximum input authority for Mach 10 and beyond.
Paradigm Shift in Control Surface Methodologies, Increasing Control Authority (Internal Mechanical Applications)
To date, most control surfaces for hypersonic missile platforms still use fins, similar to lower speed conventional missiles, and some using ducted fins. This is mostly due to lack of comprehension of hypersonic velocities in their own favor. Instead, the body itself incorporates those control surfaces, greatly enhancing the airframe strength, opening up more space for hardware and fuel capacity; while simultaneously enhancing the platforms maneuvering capabilities.
A scramjet missile can then fly like conventional missile platforms, and not straight and level at high altitudes, losing velocity on it's decent trajectory to target. Another added benefit to this aspect, is the ability to extend range greatly, so if anyone elses hypersonic missile platform were developed for 400 mile range, falling out of the sky due to lack of glide capabilities; our platforms can easily reach 600+ miles, with minimal glide deceleration.

I didn't put a lot of care and attention into calibration on this, so it's not useful for differentiating different kinds of photosynthesizing plants. It's basically good for "this part has stuff growing" and "this part doesn't". But it serves to illustrate the technique.
