Fabricator

Mach's dir selbst (brand eins audio: Komplexität)

Ein Beitrag aus der Januarausgabe der brand eins zum Schwerpunkt 'Komplexität'.3-D-Drucker können heute bereits eine Menge Dinge produzieren. Henkeltassen, Autoersatzteile und künstliche Knochen zum Beispiel. Wir sind auf dem Weg zur Heimfabrik. Im Media Laboratory des MIT steht ein Dishmaker, der auf Knopfdruck Tassen, Teller oder Schüsseln aus Kunststoff frisch produziert und nach Benutzung wieder einschmilzt. 'Ein programmierbarer Personal Fabricator wird in der Lage sein, alles herzustellen, sich selbst eingeschlossen', schreibt Gershenfeld in seinem 2005 erschienenen Buch 'Fab - The Coming Revolution on Your Desktop'. Jeder Mensch könne damit Dinge erschaffen, die er schon immer haben wollte.

Roll Call: A True Crime Prison Story of Corruption and Redemption , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 913min

A true account of the author's drug dealing past that turned into trumped up organized crime charges over a bad business deal with the fabricator of Custom Craft Harley Davidson's. Another true account of how the corrupt California prison union used terror tactics with then Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger relating to the 3 Strikes Law. Harvard lawyer Daniel Morris has since confirmed it with, "A shameful lie." Roll Call is a true prison story with a cast of characters that include Mexican drug cartels, Southern California street gangs and Hell's Angels all fighting for their piece of the drug culture. In the middle of it all, B.J. is hell bent for destruction until he realizes his destiny in the nick of time. Add a good detective squeezed out of the loop by an overzealous narcotic detective; a robust prison union trying to call the shots; a handful of drug criminals trying to find their conscience and you have the perfect recipe for a revolutionary uprising, bound by blood, all leaving the reader wondering, who are the real criminals? ungekürzt.

Double or Nothing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 53min

First appearing in the May, 1962 magazine Fantastic Stories of Imagination, Double or Nothing, by Jack Sharkey, is a tongue-firmly-in-cheek science fiction short story chronicling a few hilarious, tragic-but-still-funny, days in the lives of wacky inventor Artie Lindstrom and Burt, his long-suffering engineer/fabricator partner and the tale's narrator. It is summer, in the probably distant future, and Artie Lindstrom - the wizard behind a remotely-triggered jar lid opener that became the weapon that defeated the Martian invasion, a water desalinization machine that inadvertently produced gin, and a death ray gun that obliterated Venus during the Three-Day War - has sketched out plans for an anti-gravity machine not much bigger than a mini-fridge. Burt, not all that convinced that Artie's invention is such a great idea, nonetheless builds the machine according to plan. Following Artie's and Burt's few tests and revisions, in a classic example of unintended consequences, nothing else ever goes according to plan again. After listening to Double or Nothing, you'll never look at a humble bowl of cornflakes in quite the same way. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: C. James Moore.

Clay: Halfskin, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 527min

Jamie wants to be a halfskin. Her life has become dull and pointless. If she had more biomites, the synthetic stems cells that promise hope and healing, she could take control of her life. But Jamie's body is already 49.9% biomites. The rest is clay-her God-given organic cells. Anymore biomites and she becomes a halfskin. And halfskins are shutdown. But there is a way. Black market biomites, called nixes, can't be detected by the government. She'd have to sacrifice her clay, but nixes can make her halfskin without anyone knowing. But first, she has to find them. Nix Richards can help. He's the first halfskin to escape the government and Jamie has something he wants. He'll need her to help him find a fabricator to build a human body. He'll betray anyone to get it, even those closest to him. This psychological thriller will keep them second-guessing every move while they elude Marcus Anderson and the governing agency that seeks to rid the world of biomites. But in the end, they'll all discover just how deep the betrayal goes. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Dietz.

Murderess on the Loose: The 1922 Hammer Wrath of Clara Phillips (A Historical True Crime Short) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 77min

From award-winning criminologist R. Barri Flowers and best-selling author of Murder During the Chicago World's Fair, Murder of the Doctor's Wife, Murder at the Pencil Factory, and The Pickaxe Killers comes the gripping historical true-crime short, Murderess on the Loose: The 1922 Hammer Wrath of Clara Phillips. On the evening of Wednesday, July 12, 1922, Los Angeles, California, was the scene of a shocking and deadly assault. The victim was an attractive 21-year-old widow named Alberta Meadows. Her death came as the result of a vicious hammer and boulder attack on a twisting dirt road at the bottom of a hill in the subdivision of Montecito Heights on the city's northeast side. The violent act was perpetrated by a romantic rival named Clara Phillips, who lured the unsuspecting victim to the unlikely crime scene. The 23-year-old murderess' actions were spurred by jealous rage, as Mrs. Meadows was the mistress of Clara's husband, Armour Phillips, an oil-stock salesman who was three years her senior. Clara Phillips was given the moniker “Tiger Woman” by the overzealous LA press of the day after a police detective on the case suggested that Alberta Meadows looked like “[S]he had been mauled by a tiger”. But Clara didn't go away quietly, proving to be not only a coldhearted killer, but a fabricator and masterful escape artist before justice for the victim finally had a chance to be served in what proved to be one the 20th century's most disturbing acts of homicidal violence. Included are bonus excerpts of R. Barri Flowers' best-selling historical true crime book, The Dreadful Acts of Jack the Ripper and Other True Tales of Serial Murder and Prostitutes, and the historical true-crime shorts The Pickaxe Killers, Murder at the Pencil Factory, Murder of the Doctor's Wife, and Murder During the Chicago World's Fair. ungekürzt.
