Filmmaker, synth nerd, failed scientist. Making PC-fan based air purifiers to mitigate airborne viruses. Follow link below...

Really struggled with this design, but I've got it as simple and inexpensive as possible. Ends up this prototype is 20mm too wide! A new prototype is in the works and then it should be ready to go. The wide definitely makes if very stable! #indoorairquality #CovidIsNotOver
Realizing the original 8 x 80mm fan was misguided, here is the redesigned Guardian. My goal was to make the cheapest, quietest and most portable solution. 1/2 #indoorairquality #CovidIsNotOver

Some elements of our supply chain rely on US warehouses and all the tariff uncertainty led to a month long delay for the PC fans we use. Thankfully we are expecting a big shipment this week. We have prepared a lot of panels so we will be ready to ship asap!

An excellent resource provided by the NCBI, use it before it most likely gets shut down! Searching for "air purifier" brings up a huge number of studies: https://t.co/dYBOtKSX0Q

We’re going in the wrong direction & Trump is making this so much worse. Billionaires could help but they’d rather be higher ranked than save humanity.

Air quality very poor in Toronto today, an N95 mask outdoors and air purifiers indoors would be a good idea. #wildfires #airquality

Though our air purifiers can help keep your indoor air safe during wildfire season, filters should be changed after a major smoke event as their electrostatic properties can be compromised. #wildfiresmoke #wildfires #cleantheair #COVIDisAirborne

While down south they are using fake studies, likely generated by LLMs, to justify their suicidal vaccine policy, you can clearly read what actual scientists have observed:
Newborns exposed to SARS-CoV-2 during the first trimester had significantly smaller birth weight, length, head circumference (HC) and earlier gestational age (GA) at birth than unexposed or second-to-third trimester exposed newborns. https://t.co/s4iRDNXB93

Our air purifiers can help mitigate the risk of wildfire smoke particles. It's a good idea to have plenty of extra filters as a serious wildfire event can adversely affect their electrostatic properties. #WildfireSmoke

Really happy how this turned out, the MINI-SC with built-in speed control! I'm hoping the supply of Arctic P8Max fans will be OK, they are hard to get in Canada.
The MINI, our portable air purifier, is now the MINI-SC with built-in speed control. Throttle between an insane 5000 rpm to whisper quiet operation. Great when you need to clear a hotel room fast and then settle in for the night! https://t.co/I91eBPy3rQ

Many thanks to Zack Deis, whose open source design will be the basis of our POLARIS air purifier, I'm hoping this can be deployed in classrooms and other public spaces. #CleanAirForKids #COVIDisAirborne
Speed control tests for our POLARIS air purifier, a metal version of our 6XL but with more powerful fans that can be controlled for quiet operation when needed. https://t.co/FbWdqabUWB

Working on an update to our MINI portable air purifier which uses the very powerful but loud Arctic P8 Max fans. Instead of purchasing a variable external power supply we are going to install a built in speed controller: https://t.co/JjR8wHj41v

It may be spring, but unfortunately most office windows can’t be opened to refresh the air. Want to know how well-ventilated your office is? 💨 Our mini CO2 monitor can help you decide if the HVAC needs adjusting, and is on sale during our Spring Sale! 🌷 https://t.co/srikQEkRzG

Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hours should probably disclose that now. I’ve been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor. Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We’re about to learn a few things. It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.
NASDAQ call volume spiked minutes before the 90 day tariff pause was announced. Not a good look at all.
