The present disclosure relates to ornamental indicia carrier and method of producing the same. In some embodiments, the ornamental indicia carrier comprises an ultraviolet light (“UV”) cured ink printed on a thin flexible film and combined with an adhesive layer. The ornamental indicia carrier is capable of enduring the conditions inside the mouth for an extended period of time and can be used in conjunction with a dental appliance.

A method for producing a decorative element and uses of a decorative element. A polarizing layer functioning as an analyzer is applied to a transparent optical carrier material and a transparent optical functional layer is applied as an image-forming layer including an optically anisotropic material. By spatially structuring the functional layer, a targeted location-dependent dependency of material properties of the optically anisotropic material is created for producing the image-forming layer. One or several decorative elements produced can each be introduced into a light field of a lighting device in a desired shape, size and quantity and having settable image motifs (image structures) and being disposed at different spatial distances and being freely disposable. The decorative element produced is intended to be used as an architectural element for creating light-optical effects in the exterior area of buildings, as a design element for interior design or for object design.

A presentation system for a celebration of an individual comprising: a frame; a lighting system disposed along an inner edge of a perimeter of the frame; a fabric removably attached to the frame disposed outwardly from the lighting system adapted to be illuminated by the lighting system; an image included on the fabric associated with aspects of a subject of the celebration of the individual; and, a memorial container disposed in front of the fabric wherein the image and the memorial container cooperate to form a composite image when viewed by an audience.

Provided is a protective playmat comprising a first layer of natural rubber foam or neoprene foam or both, the first layer having a first layer top surface and a non-slip first layer bottom surface opposite said first layer top surface; a second layer comprising a second layer top surface and a second layer bottom surface opposite said second layer top surface, the second layer bottom surface being laminated to the first layer top surface, the second layer including a textured polyester cloth blend of between 150gsm and 250gsm; and a third layer comprising a third layer top surface and a third layer bottom surface opposite said third layer top surface, the third layer bottom surface being laminated to the second layer top surface, the third layer including an electrochemical aluminum foil on PET film forming silver dots or holographic dots or both.

The present invention relates to a macroscopic, two or three-dimensional image-making support medium which is a new reinvented version of a conventional utilitarian fine artist's canvas, armature or image support, the novel image support medium facilitates artistic expression and the creation and display of macroscopic art, design or architecture, made therewith, thereupon or therefrom. The invention also relates to various methods of making such novel image-making support mediums and the works of art, design and architecture made with, on and from them. Examples are new works of art, design and architecture made with very thin, light-emitting devices; works of art, design and architecture capable of interactivity, responsiveness and/or change, and works of art, design and architecture with new and extraordinary aesthetic and/or functional properties from the use of nanomaterials.
