My understanding is that Fragments is what was originally the restaurant section attached to Mayfield.
Mayfield began in April 2010 when Kevin T Byrne and Kevin D Byrne opened their doors on Terenure Road North to the public.
The small building was originally a butchers shop from the early 1900’s. Already rich with character this was retained and built on using vintage tables and chairs. In 2013 the opportunity arose to expand and taking the risk they moved the restaurant into the large adjoining premises, turning the original space into a take-out deli.

If you set a goal only to meet it and never exceed it, was it really a goal at all? Understanding the difference between the mind of the complacent and the mind of the entrepreneur is critical to self-acceleration and to identifying, within others, that rare talent gene called entrepreneur.
== www.jeffreymagee.com/lp/ ==
The entrepreneurial spirit and energy is at the root of any success and innovation. With USA Today and Gallup research revealing that as much as 71% of society, at any given time, is looking to perform the minimal of work product possible, while expecting the maximum of performance pay, it is no wonder that the entrepreneur has become the rarest among species!
So what does the mind of the solo entrepreneur reveal? More can do with constructive stimulant references as opposed to negative and can’t impressions. It reveals the catalyst to wonderment, innovation (not imitation), advancement, and capital market generation. It shows a methodical Mental DNA blueprint to creation and a GPS for advancement. It also reveals, in many situations, a keen understanding of their lack of business acumen and therefore a continuing need for the businessmanag ement talent acquisition. The Mental DNA has a mystical axis, weighted disproportionality as an entrepreneurial AmeriCAN as opposed to the USATODAY/Gallup research of the newly shaped AmeriCANT.
So, what are some of the Mental DNA characteristics of an entrepreneur mind?
Creative approaches to the obvious, which reveal alternate pathways to and beyond a goal.
Results oriented responsiveness to market needs, demands, and foresight to needs yet revealed.
Attitude of victory, champion of optimism, and a self-belief that radiates out and becomes contagious to others to want to associate with calling and cause. This Attitude makes it possible to continuously drive for gains in Aptitude to unleash their solo entrepreneurial abilities, where others remain mystified. Zest for the unknown and a belief in possibilities, a sense of urgency to leverage, capitalize and execute ROI. Their passion feeds their mind to assume ownership in finding connectivity where others do not, and continuously explore Application opportunities to learn, apply, and advance. Yearning to see the best in people, organizations, and distribution channels and deliverables to advance any situation in life. You will find that the solo entrepreneurs surround themselves virtually and literally with like-minded challengers and advocates, which fuels their sense of CRAZY as viewed through the lens of outsiders. Yet keeping a balance to allow productive ROI for right now and evolving ROI of tomorrow. The real CRAZY mind of the solo entrepreneur is really about understanding the “Player Capability Index™” as the mental architecture for life long development? Over the past two decades, through working with clients ranging from NASA and the DoD to HarleyDavidson and Farm Credit Services banking groups, to the National GUARD and NASBA, I have learned that understanding the human capital talent within an entrepreneur or institutional employee, comes down to a simple matrix I have designed and call “The Player Capability Index.” Your ability to understand objectively within yourself and others the depth of what each “letter” represents will directly connect you to the entrepreneurial energy and capacity of a person. The letters reveal the now and reveals what contributions may need to be calibrated into a person to enable them to function ahead of market needs tomorrow. The formula: C = (T2+A+P+E+C) E2 x R = R R = Results Starting on the right side of the equation, the last letter in the formula represents Results, any output or ROI desired. So how do you get to that R, you must objectively and thoroughly understand the chemistry of the C at the opposite left side of the equation. C = Capability Capability is the driver of the solo entrepreneur that enables significant results to be continuously generated. The greater the depth of any and every subsequent letter enables the Results, conversely for the complacent among us, it is their diminished desire to not draw upon any lettered capability driver nor their desire to add any real-time relevant depth to any lettered category that serves as the cancer to entrepreneurialism. So the letters within then parenthesis drive the Capability level. T2 = Training Traning as represented by any deliverable of knowledge, whether, formal or informal education, technical or non-technical education, certification driven or simple the OTJ knowledge acquisition. The number two adjacent to the C simply reminds you of two applications of the T, one is for total T gained from birth to present tense so T1 is Past tense Training and the T2 would be for Future tense train- ProfessionalPerformanceMagazine.com I 31 ing needs. Entrepreneurs are always seeking more T acquisition! A = Attitude Attitude that projects winner and not whiner. P = Performance Performance reflective of past accomplishments, records, participations, leadership and follower positions that would serve as a mental imprint of self-belief and awareness of what can be done. E = Experiences Experiences from birth to present tense are enormous windows through which entrepreneurs see themselves and from which one can draw strategically from for entrepreneur Results. C = Culture Culture awareness and upbringing also calibrate performance and self-worth, what you know you can draw upon, what you know you can manage. But what you fail to recognize may be the driver of results or implosion. E2 = Expectations Expectiations calibrate what rally shows p, the entrepreneur or the complacent individual. The first interpretation of E is yours, how you see yourself calibrates whether you bring you’re a-Game or B-Game to the show. And the second E is the other persons E of you. Knowing the two and calibrating them together allows for entrepreneurial effectiveness. R = Relationships Relationships that a person has can serve as the multiplier to the entire formula and that is how entrepreneurs leverage everything. Or sadly for far too many today their entrepreneurial energy is snuffed out because of the ever-increasing circle of negative influencers and stimulants around them. If you set a goal only to find that you can easily exceed it, was it really a goal at all? Understanding the solo entrepreneur mind and how to singularly take control of your destiny by inventing an ever-growing “Player Capability Index” is the DNA that CRAZY is made from!

There are discoveries so fundamental, so quietly omnipresent, that they become part of the very fabric of our understanding—so deeply woven into our knowledge that it’s hard to imagine a time when we didn’t know them. Penny Chisholm’s discovery of Prochlorococcus—the smallest, most abundant photosynthetic organism on Earth—is one of those.
I photographed Penny at her office and lab at MIT in the fall of 2023, and I’ll never forget the moment we stepped into a refrigerated room deep inside her lab. The chill was immediate, the hum of machinery a steady undercurrent. She reached into a rack and lifted two small test tubes, each glowing a faint, otherworldly green. “This,” she said, holding them up to the light, “is the foundation of the ocean’s food web. The most abundant phytoplankton on the planet.”
That microscopic speck of green—Prochlorococcus—had once been invisible to us, despite existing in vast numbers across the world’s oceans, quietly producing oxygen, fueling marine ecosystems, and shaping the chemistry of the planet. It was Penny’s work, her persistence and curiosity, that revealed it to science.
The story of that discovery stretches back to the late 1980s, a time when oceanographers still largely relied on traditional methods—net tows, microscopy, and chemical analyses—to study phytoplankton. But the problem was that these tools missed something. The ocean’s primary producers weren’t just the larger phytoplankton that could be seen under a microscope; something much smaller was at work. Penny, working alongside colleagues, turned to flow cytometry, a technique borrowed from medical research, to analyze seawater one cell at a time.
When they did, they saw something unexpected—tiny, green fluorescent cells in astonishing numbers. At first, no one quite believed it. How could an organism so small—barely a fraction of a micrometer across—be responsible for such a significant fraction of the ocean’s primary production? But as they sequenced its DNA and studied its ecology, a new picture of the ocean emerged.
It turned out that Prochlorococcus wasn’t just abundant—it was ubiquitous. Trillions upon trillions of these microscopic cells drifted through the oceans, thriving at different depths, subtly adapting to varying light conditions, forming an invisible yet essential foundation of the marine ecosystem. It was as if an entire unseen rainforest had been hiding in plain sight, only now revealed.
But Penny’s impact reaches far beyond Prochlorococcus. She has spent her career advocating for a deeper understanding of the ocean as a living system, not just a resource to be exploited. She has pushed back against the idea of carbon as a simple commodity, warning of the unintended consequences of geoengineering schemes that treat the ocean as a dumping ground for excess CO₂. She understands something fundamental: that nature is not a machine to be tuned but a complex, interwoven system.
And then there’s her role at MIT—not just as a scientist but as a mentor, a leader, an advocate. Penny was a key ally in one of the most significant battles for gender equity in academia: the movement led by molecular biologist Nancy Hopkins to expose gender discrimination at MIT in the 1990s. It started quietly, with a small group of senior female faculty—including Penny and Nancy—comparing notes on the subtle but persistent disparities they faced: fewer resources, smaller labs, lower salaries. It wasn’t just perception; it was measurable.
Nancy, ever precise, collected the data—evidence that left no room for doubt. When they presented their findings to MIT’s administration, something remarkable happened: MIT admitted it. The institution publicly acknowledged gender bias, an extraordinary moment of institutional self-reflection that rippled across academia. Penny was part of that fight, standing beside Nancy and the other women who reshaped the culture of MIT.
Sitting in her office, surrounded by books on oceanography, ecology, and climate change, Penny talked not just about her own discoveries but about what it means to be a scientist—to see the world clearly, to fight for truth, whether it’s hidden in a drop of seawater or buried in institutional norms.
As I packed up my camera, I kept thinking about those test tubes glowing green in the cold room. A lifetime of work distilled into something so small, so deceptively simple. But Penny Chisholm had shown the world that the smallest things—the unseen, the unnoticed—can hold the greatest power.

Based on the information collected during my ethnographic work focusing my attention on the everyday understandings of dengue fever, and paying particular attention to the different ways in which the subjects that have had dengue described the experience of being unwell, I decided to re-work (collaboratively) all the information gathered so far, to create elements that reflect the ideas of how dengue fever is understood in various different contexts.
Promoters of public health have not taken into consideration the points of view of the patients or those who have had the disease. They design campaigns based on an entomological and clinical point of view, following a standard template where you see health staff –dressed in laboratory coats– talking about environmental hygiene and the purposes of sanitation. In addition, humour doesn’t play a role in the design of the campaigns.
In order to collaboratively create an intervention that reproduces the way Luis Fernando and Sara experienced the disease (you can find information about the ways in which they described the experience of being unwell by accessing my PhD blog: www.anthropologyartscience.blogspot.com), we asked Alejandro Uribe, Sarita Álvarez and Juan Camilo Ortega for their help. They are part of Bimana, a collective of artist that creates a variety of large-scale interventions and performances combining a solar balloon, plastic bags, kites, makeup, prosthetics design, and special effects. The idea was to create a fictional character, or a comic anti-hero, that would appear in the public space of the city, creating an active dialogue with different peoples.
Acknowledgments:
I am extremely grateful with the subjects of this ethnography Sara and Luis Fernando. Special thanks to the ‘Bimana Producciones’ team (Alejandro Uribe, Sarita Álvarez and Juan Camilo Ortega), the kite-flyer Andrés Ramírez and the actor Emilio Arango. I would also like to thank the rest of the people that helped during the public experiment: Pablo López, Lucía Tobón, Sara Ibarram, Susana Valencia, Hernán Marín, Mario Valencia, and Gustavo Ramírez.
