MIT engineers use kirigami to make ultrastrong, lightweight structures
Produced with techniques borrowed from Japanese paper-cutting, the strong metal lattices are lighter than cork and have customizable mechanical properties.
Cellular solids are materials composed of many cells that have been packed together, such as a honeycomb. The shape of those cells largely determines the material’s mechanical properties, including its stiffness or strength. Bones, for instance, are filled with a natural material that enables them to be lightweight, but stiff and strong. Inspired by bones and other cellular solids found in nature, humans have used the same concept to develop architected materials. By changing the geometry of the unit cells that make up these materials, researchers can customize the material’s mechanical, thermal, or acoustic properties. Architected materials are used in many applications, from shock-absorbing packing foam to heat-regulating radiators.

Exploring the Art of Origami
Origami, the art of paper folding, is not just a fascinating hobby but also a creative method that helps relax the mind and enhance cognitive skills. Originating in Japan, origami has become an integral part of many cultures, transforming simple sheets of paper into intricate works of art.
The History of Origami Origami dates back to around the 6th century when paper was introduced to Japan from China. Initially, this art form was primarily used in religious ceremonies. Over time, it evolved into a beloved artistic activity, with a variety of styles and techniques emerging.
Basic Techniques To get started with origami, all you need is a piece of paper and a bit of patience. Here are some fundamental techniques:
Valley Fold: This is the first step in many models. Simply fold the paper in half and then unfold it to create a crease.
Mountain Fold: Similar to a valley fold, but you fold the paper along a diagonal line, creating different crease points.
Reverse Fold: This involves folding a crease back in the opposite direction, adding unique dimensions to your design.
Simple Models to Try Crane: The crane is one of the most famous origami symbols. According to legend, folding 1,000 cranes grants you a wish.
Lotus Flower: This model is easy to make and carries significant symbolism, often used in decorations for events.
Fish: A simple yet lively design that brings a playful element to your creations.
Benefits of Origami Paper folding is not only entertaining; it also offers numerous mental and physical health benefits. Origami improves concentration, develops logical thinking, and stimulates creativity. Additionally, it can reduce stress and anxiety, providing a calming experience for practitioners.
Conclusion Origami is more than just paper folding; it’s a connection between individuals and creativity. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced folder, take time to experiment with various folds and create your own unique pieces. Start with simple models and gradually explore the endless possibilities that origami has to offer!

Cannon Bill
Tumblr media
One of the first superpowered crimefighters, this silent bruiser made his debut in 1930s Manhattan, providing free knuckle dentistry to Pinkerton agents, terrorists and gangsters. Once a troubled young chemist, William Ken Scott developed a formula intended to fix up improperly-healed spinal injuries he had accumulated over the course of an abusive childhood and adolescence, until a mysterious lab accident allowed him to create a chemical compound that permanently granted him superhuman strength and durability. A chance encounter with a lifelong friend wound up inspiring him to use his newfound abilities to fight crime and protect others, and for years, William and his friend, a street smart cabbie always ready for action, protected the streets together, eluding criminals and law enforcement alike as an invincible duo.
Until a fateful night in 1939, when William finally tracked down the master criminal, Father Hatchet, to a hideout at Seventh Avenue, and walked through corpses and viscera to find Hatchet and his gang murdered at the hands of his new lieutenant, the cadaverous giant Frere Jacques. Cannon Bill fought desperately to lead Jacques away from further victims into an unoccupied building, and in the end, his enhanced durability only gave him a few extra minutes of torture. He was thrown off an 8th-floor apartment and rescued by his friend, who raced through the streets as fast as he could, desperate to find anything in their lab that could revive his friend's pulse. William did not survive that night, and in death, whether because of the formula or something Jacques did to him, his body crumbled into a strange black powder.
A year later, when the Camelot Circle of America was formed and Cannon Bill was invited to join, there were few who knew him close enough to tell a different man had taken up the mantle.
In the decades that followed, his friend never quite got over his death, never accepted the sheer injustice that had befallen his companion, never stopped trying to make up for it, only breaking retirement over the decades to stop Frere Jacques whenever he resurfaced. When the Earth was struck by a cataclysm in the 1980s, and Cannon Bill spotted a man he'd seen die and crumble to dust in his arms walking down the street, he gave chase without looking back, and eventually found himself in a strange, broken world, a desert wasteland where he treaded upon a black powder he'd only seen once before, and faced monstrous fascimiles of people he'd met before. A world covered in cremation ashes, all that once remained of his beloved partner.
Maybe it was a trick to lure him into his demise, or something worse than death. Maybe his partner didn't die at all, and got drafted into some kind of eternal war he couldn't escape from. Maybe this is where his partner wound up after he died, and all Bill can do is find whatever remains of a ghost. Maybe the things he's facing really are his old teammates, and when he dies, he'll join the march of the mechanical undead as well.
Tumblr media
Maybe, shmaybe, that kind of smart-guy thinking was never Bill's forte. If he got in, he can get out. If his partner isn't dead, he'll find him. And if he is dead and this is the afterlife, then he'll get him out of here either way, and screw it, he'll get those other chumps out as well, because this ain't no place to spend eternity in. Either way, Bill knows the only way out is the same way out of everything: it's going through the storm and keeping your head up till the bell rings.
And if you can't do it alone, well, that's where you find someone smarter than you to point the way.
Cannon Bill was never a one-person job after all.

North Carolina State University researchers have developed a kirigami-inspired mechanical computer that uses a complex structure of rigid, interconnected polymer cubes to store, retrieve and erase data without relying on electronic components. The system also includes a reversible feature that allows users to control when data editing is permitted and when data should be locked in place. Mechanical computers are computers that operate using mechanical components rather than electronic ones. Historically, these mechanical components have been things like levers or gears. However, mechanical computers can also be made using structures that are multistable, meaning they have more than one stable state -- think of anything that can be folded into more than one stable position. "We were interested in doing a couple things here," says Jie Yin, co-corresponding author of a paper on the work and an associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at NC State. "First, we were interested in developing a stable, mechanical system for storing data.
