Fungi could be the next frontier in fire safety
Australia is no stranger to fire-related disasters. The country experiences more than 17,000 residential fires each year. Each winter brings an increase in potential fire hazards due to the use of heaters and candles. Couple this with our already fire-prone vegetation, and a generally hot and dry climate, and you can see why there's an urgent need to develop effective and sustainable fireproofing methods. This is what inspired our research team to create fireproofing materials made from edible fungi. These materials can withstand flames to protect the integrity of a building's structure (and any occupants). Our work presents an exciting opportunity for an industry that has spent too long using materials that are harmful to human health and the environment.

Could you go into the meaning behind the aesthetics? I'm intrigued but I'm uncertain if I'm fully grasping everything I want too!
Character by character? Sure. Clockwise from the top left: young anglos only I will have to do the others another time
Tumblr media
Alfred: Clockwise from the top left: chalkboard to represent his math and science oriented brain from early days especially as he predates calculus in multiple handwritings to show the collaboration of science. Lady liberty emerging from the fog, his ideals looming over him. The microscope is a sign of innovation. The moon is his hops and ambitions ever upward. The car both the american auto industry and the innate loneliness of it. The national bird, the eagle in flight, the ferocity and aim he often has for his goals. the horseshoes for the old west but also the odd nostalgia Alfred has for things that never were. Then the star, rusting on a warship. theoretical end of empire but never the end of american airpower. And finally his portrait is his spacesuit. The only one without hair/visible human features because no country has ever projected such a strong image around the world and it obscures him.
Tumblr media
Matt: Whittling with a small knife because he's got anxiety and a lot of woods. a looming moose for the darker force and mystery of nature and his own personality. Pancakes because he's a domestic fuck when permitted. a hatchet. Lots of wood an also war crimes. his tools are often weapons too. Maple tapping. A reliance on the natural resources at his disposal that shaped his culture tightly. man's outline in front of a fire is for Matt's propensity for salt and burning and personally annihilating obstacles when properly motivated. sunrise through a frosted window. Spring and hope rising over winter and despair. A repeating rifle. He too, is the result the arms of empire. And finally his 'portrait' a young man facedown in the sheets, lots of curls. This one is popular for Matt aesthetics for the hair but he's a tired, depressive bastard who tends to linger in safety rather than push himself for better.
Tumblr media
Jack: a selection of fossils. The happiest part of his childhood was in natural history but these very collections are soaked in empire. A kangaroo and joey. His fauna but also his instincts of aggression about his environment and sometimes his sister. Meat pies because they're popular but also, born a penal colony he lacked a lot of agency over his own food and being as fast growing as he was he's a chronic snacker. map of Australia. could be self explanatory but even all the way down there he's pretty concerned about his place in the world and tends to look at himself at globes when he sees one. Two horses. Man and his country love to race but also I picked two because he really is not a person who prefers to be alone for long periods of time, as misanthropic as he can be. Surfboards: he loves his water-sports but the sunny, 'no-worries, mate' attitude too. Coffee on books. He's always been very keen to prove his wine, coffee, cuisine and tastes can stand up to the snobs and a flat white was an Australian invention. Golden wattle is the national flower and symbolizes resilience, often appearing first after fires and floods. And finally the portrait. A young man with a collar pulled up and one hand on the back of his neck, pondering his future? being a bit sheepish? both suit him.
Tumblr media
Zee: Two sheep gently headbutting each other. Sheep and a stubborn affection is something she shares with Jack even if it probably influenced her culture more. Books because she's the best educated of her generation for a long time but the titles for birds, fairytales and oxford classic texts are for her famous birds, her two sets of folklore and culture and her oxford education. Kiwi box on bike handlebars. Bicycles were a massive part of early feminism and her own independence. The box and kiwi silhouette see something she probably knocked together herself. She's handly like that. Silver ferns are a national symbol and very hard to kill, resilient and the shape is very elegant and invokes Māori art and resistance. A grumpy looking Kea. This image looks very cranky but they're the goofiest and probably smartest birds on the face of the earth. Map of new zealand on a globe. Her name is bigger than she is on the map because its somewhat imposed on her nd there's also her brother always in the corner. A canoe or boat to symbolize her maritime culture, but also her own ability to build and engineer and pilot one. Her portrait I chose a woman with her hair type elegantly put up and looking away, back to a wall, a hint of a smile on her face because she has her strict lines and a slog of struggles but also a pretty decent place in the world.

Sirens Market Research by Key players, Type and Application, Future Growth Forecast 2022 to 2032
In 2022, the global sirens market is expected to be worth US$ 170.1 million. The siren market is expected to reach US$ 244.0 million by 2032, growing at a 3.7% CAGR.
The use of sirens is expected to increase, whether for announcements or on emergency vehicles such as ambulances, police cars, and fire trucks. A siren is a loud warning system that alerts people to potentially dangerous situations as they happen.
Rapidly increasing threats and accidents have resulted in more casualties and missed business opportunities in developing economies. Demand for sirens is expected to rise during the forecast period as more people use security solutions.
As a result of rising threats and accidents in developing economies, the number of victims and lost business opportunities has rapidly increased. Adopting security solutions, such as sirens, is an effective way to deal with these challenges. Long-range sirens are used in mining and industrial applications, whereas motorised sirens are used in home security. Hand-operated sirens are used when there is no power or when a backup is required.
Some additional features of sirens include a solar panel upgrade system to keep the batteries charged and a number of digital communication methods, including Ethernet, satellite, IP, fiber optic and others. Sirens have conformal coatings on their electronics, which help protect them against harsh environments. Some of the systems are made in such a way that they can be expanded or scaled depending on future capabilities.
Omni-directional sirens can be used in areas of high noise levels and those with large population densities as they provide a greater area of coverage. Sirens have external controls with triggers, which can be customized according to needs. The lightening types of sirens include bulb revolving, LED flashing and xenon lamp strobe. The loud speakers in sirens are adopted from latest piezoelectric ceramic technology.
Get a Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/sample/rep-gb-4274
Other sirens are hydraulic or air driven and mostly find applications in plants and factories. Lithium batteries have replaced alkaline batteries in sirens now, since lithium batteries need not be replaced for several years. Modern sirens use latest technologies and find applications in civil defense, emergency vehicles, security systems and others. Typically, sirens are made of stainless steel, aluminum or UV stabilized polycarbonate to avoid corrosion and are equipped with protection cages. An LED flashing siren has a light source with a semi-permanent lifespan and it is used in places where bulb replacement is a problem.

hi, i'm a live events tech. i work with a lot of equipment which uses these batteries, and they are NO FUCKING JOKE.
here in australia, just last year, an AV company in melbourne almost lost their warehouse to a fire. it was caused by lithium-ion batteries, exactly like what's described here, being overcharged past their limit.
https://www.cxnetwork.com.au/the-resolution-x-fire-an-urgent-wake-up-call/
https://resolutionx.com.au/fire-battery-safety/
the fire was hot enough to melt steel, causing truss beams suspended several metres in the air to melt and drop the light fixtures they were holding, worsening the fire. it was hot enough to melt steel, which melts at 1,300°C/2,500°F.
your phone or laptop doesn't have batteries with a high enough capacity to do this from overcharging, and it has protections against it. however, our industry has seen the damage these things can do, and it is why i am an unbelievable hardass about battery fixtures not being left alone while charging, ever. don't fuck with li-ion batteries.

There is something else worth pointing out about Tesla cars actually. When the first Tesla Model S cars were rolling off the line in the early 2010s, their crash safety was actually a massive selling point.
See, one of the tricks with Tesla's electric car designs is that the entire drivetrain -- the battery, the motors, and all the other mechanical stuff that makes the car go -- fits within the profile of the wheels. They have one big flat battery that sits at the bottom of the car and the electric motors sit parallel to the wheels. This means that all Teslas have a "frunk", or "front trunk", underneath the bonnet, where the engine of a petrol car normally sits. But this also means that the original Model S had an absolutely gigantic, mostly empty crumple zone in between the nose and the front seats. The original Model S was getting record scores on frontal crash safety tests, because it had an amazing crumple zone.
Now, there have been a few things which have put pretty serious dents in this reputation for safety! I'm pretty sure that the first problem came up when Tesla started putting dual motors into their electric cars. The original Model S was rear-wheel drive, with a single electric motor that fit within the profile of the rear wheels, but later "performance" models added a second electric motor to drive the front wheels. It's now almost impossible to buy a new Tesla that doesn't have one motor at the front and one at the back -- it's standard on newer Model S, all Model X, and the Cybertruck. I don't think this had a huge impact on their frontal crash safety, but it could potentially compromise the crumple zone in a badly designed car (like the Cybertruck).
For another thing, Tesla cars do seem to catch fire a lot. When they were new, this was being excused with "they still don't catch fire as often as petrol cars" or "mass marked electric cars are new technology so we aren't sure what the fire rates are like", and those excuses were acceptable because they seemed to be true based on the data we had at the time. But now that other electric vehicles are entering the mass market, and the fire safety of petrol cars is still being gradually improved, it actually turns out that no, Tesla cars really do catch on fire more often than basically any other modern car.
And the third thing is that I think Elon Musk has started believing his own hype, and that he's mistaken his own personal aesthetics, and personal paranoia, for mass market consumer demand. The lead designer at Tesla is Franz von Holzhausen, an auto industry design veteran who had worked for Volkswagen, GM and Mazda. It's pretty easy to look through von Holzhausen's design portfolio for those other manufacturers and see a lot of the same design language as the Model S: large, tightly-fit, far-spaced wheels, low suspension, a long bonnet, and a slightly bulbous, overhanging nose seem to be his design trademarks. The Cybertruck, on the other hand, seems to bear almost zero resemblance to a von Holzhausen design. It seems to bear a very close resemblance to an "Elon Musk drew a wedge on a napkin and insisted that the car be this exact shape" design.
And let's not also forget that Elon Musk is a sad, useless, paranoid, racist sack of a man! His vehicular tech from Tesla and his tunneling tech from The Boring Company would be astonishingly useful for public transport, but he'd much prefer to build a useless tunnel for private cars, because he's terrified of poor people. He probably ordered that the Cybertruck be "invincible" because he's more afraid of "what if that homeless person has a gun" than he is of "what if this giant car runs over one of my two dozen children". He genuinely seems to have forgotten that the crash safety of the early Model S cars was one of their biggest selling points.
I'm very much looking forward to the reports from when Tesla tries to get the Cybertruck approved for sale in the EU, Australia, or Japan -- countries that actually have strict car safety and registration requirements -- to see just how badly it fails when subjected to properly rigorous testing. I'm also very much looking forward to twenty years from now when von Holzhausen's NDA expires and he writes a tell-all book about how Elon fucked up the Cybertruck.
