The Taste Setters Pantelligent is one smart frying pan Cooking can be hard. The team at Pantelligent are aiming to make the process a little easier, though, by allowing users to connect their "smart" frying pan to a smartphone to monitor temperature and cook time ... taking the guesswork out of pan cooking. View all The app is the key to Pantelligent. For the more adventurous chef, the system includes freestyle mode, which allows them to use the temperature-monitoring feature without following a recipe. Bluetooth Low Energy is used for communication with the phone, which allows for a range of around 50 feet (15 m) from the pan depending on obstructions. The pan itself is made with a Teflon nonstick coating that is rated to last 3 to 5 years. Designer Humberto Evans and the rest of his team are seeking funding on Kickstarter. The Kickstarter pitch video below provides more information and shows the pan in use. Sources: Pantelligent, Kickstarter Share

This inspired the professor of engineering to develop a new type of cooking pan, that would make better use of available heat. When Povey and colleagues tested traditional pans on a gas range, they noticed that much of the heat from the flame simply went up the sides of the vessel and into the air. Drawing on technology developed to dissipate heat in jet engines, the fins built into the sides of the Flare Pan served to absorb much of that previously-wasted heat. Developed through the university's Isis Innovation commercialization branch, the Flare Pan is available for pre-order through UK kitchen goods retailer Lakeland. The company is expecting to receive delivery of the pans and begin shipments as of August 25th.

Please contact us if you have any additional questions. artscape International Osamu Ishiyama (1944-), an outsider architect who tends to work for outsider clients (the disabled, the deviant, the disenfranchised), is an exemplary member of the so-called "Red School" of Japanese architecture. A classification championed by historian Terunobu Fujimori, himself a high-profile Red School dilettante, the Red School is the subversive alternative to the more mainstream White School -- the former defined as visceral, warm, heavy, thick, rough, handmade, the latter as cerebral, cool, light, sharp, transparent, machined. The distinction isn't always easy to make: a slight shift of viewpoint places Tadao Ando's geometrical compositions of raw concrete in either camp (Fujimori calls him "pink"), and since the turn of the millennium Toyo Ito seems to have abandoned purest White for a trajectory through ever-deepening Red. Ishiyama himself has produced work of such range that the Red label is best seen as an ideological stance rather than a stylistic palette.
