Fahz, a custom 3D-printed vase with a sculptural form based on multiple face silhouettes

by Larra Morris

fahz is a custom 3D-printed vase with an asymmetrical form that is computer generated from the silhouettes of multiple people’s faces. The vases are created from multiple photos, each showing a different person in profile. The profiles are morphed so different silhouettes are visible depending on viewing angle (the effect is reminiscent of a Rubin’s vase image). fahz was created by Nick and Martha Desbiens of Desbiens Design Research. The duo is raising funds for the project on Kickstarter.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
