Interconnections between form and matter in twentieth-century Murano glass
Creators: name: Cazzaro, Irene
Publisher: name: img journal
Year: 2020
Subjects: glass; biomorphism morphology; drawing; digital humanities

description: The digitisation and cataloguing of the Seguso Vetri d’Arte archive –together with other archives of glass factories preserved in the Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice– has led to the analysis not only of the documents themselves, but also of the relationships between them. What emerges is the particular design process that gives shape to glass. We refer to the process for which the material is responsible, rather than to the intervention of a designer. The role of the designer –in constant cooperation with the glassmaker– remains nonetheless influential, but there are particular constraints to take into account. The research analyses the process that leads to the creation of an artefact through drawings and, consequently, some features of the production of hand-blown glass artefacts in some of the most famous glass factories in Murano during the 20th century, giving rise to considerations that are related both to artistic and scientific theories emerged in the same years.

Direct equivalence testing of embedded software

Subjects: Compiler testing
Embedded software
Equivalence testing
Verification

description: Direct equivalence testing is a framework for detecting errors in C compilers and application programs that exploits the fact that program semantics should be preserved during the compilation process. Binaries generated from the same piece of code should remain equivalent irrespective of the compiler, or compiler  optimizations, used. Compiler errors as well as program errors such as out of bounds memory access, stack over  ow, and use of uninitialized local variables cause  nonequivalence in the generated binaries. Direct equivalence testing has detected previously unknown errors in real world embedded software like TinyOS and in di fferent compilers like msp430-gcc and llvm-msp430.
Paper models of architectural surfaces: images for implicit and explicit geometries
Creators: name: Cumino, Caterina

Publisher: name: img journal
Year: 2020
Subjects: geometry; paper models; architecture; mathematics; interdisciplinary knowledge sharing

description: This contribution focuses on paper models of architectural surfaces, in particular on some roofing systems describable by developable ones. Drawing on an interdisciplinary approach, between Architecture and Mathematics, potentialities and criticalities of these models in explicitly conveying Geometry are investigated, in relation to educational and communicative tasks, both when they are used in a direct, tangible way, and when the use is mediated by images generated by them (thus indirect); we discuss on the possibility for models and images to communicate their explicit and implicit Geometries. The main issue discussed is that a material or analytical description unequivocally allows to grasp all the peculiarities of geometrical shapes, while other representations are subject to critical selection of data and are therefore affected by subjective interpretations; similarly, the translation of the physical model into images is the result of choices which emphasize certain object peculiarities over others and is thus less objective. Hence the importance of the physical model (as well as its digital counterparts) which, even if not used directly, can be complementary to a content that, alone, would be partial and/or misleading.

Kephalaea is a novel modulator of decapentaplegic signaling and defines requirements for signaling during head involution in Drosophila

description: Dorsal closure is the morphogenetic process by which the Drosophila melanogaster embryo becomes completely encased in cuticle-secreting epidermis. Epithelial cells on either side of the embryo spread dorsally and replace the amnioserosa, meeting and fusing along the dorsal midline to create a continuous epidermal sheet. Failure of this process results in embryonic lethality characterized by defects in the dorsal epidermis most often manifest as a single large hole in the dorsal cuticle. Dorsal-open group genes define two groups of molecules: those that contribute to closure as components of signaling cascades and those that act as mechanical effectors of closure. Cell shape changes are mediated by the mechanical effectors (cytoskeletal, junction and adhesion molecules) and are controlled by the Jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK) and Decapentaplegic (Dpp) signaling pathways. The JNK cascade is required for activation of the Dpp pathway, but both signals contribute to morphogenesis independently. The links between signaling events and cell shape change have not been identified. Here I describe the identification and characterization of a novel dorsal closure locus, kephalaea keph. Genetic evidence places keph in the Dpp signaling pathway. However, keph also interacts with JNK signaling components and mechanical effectors, suggesting that Keph may function in the integration of the JNK and Dpp signals or in the transmission of signaling to the mechanical effectors. The keph locus encodes a novel protein with no characterized domains or motifs that would suggest a biochemical function for the protein. I propose that Keph functions downstream of Dpp and JNK to link signaling events to morphogenesis driven by the mechanical effectors. In addition to its role in dorsal closure, Keph also functions in head involution, and identifies a requirement for Dpp signaling in this morphogenetic process.

description: § Oxysternon (Oxysternon) ebeninum (Nevinson, 1890)
Phanaeus ebeninus Nevinson 1890: 315 (French Guiana)
Distribution. French Guiana: Nevinson 1890: 315; Olsoufieff 1924: 115; Arnaud 2002c: 67 (?). “Guianas”: Gillet 1911b: 87; Blackwelder 1944: 210.

Venezuela (EO): Arnaud 2002c: 67 (EO); Edmonds and Zídek 2004: 25 (EO). Other: Medina et al. 2001: 140 (Colombia).
Note. According to Edmonds and Zídek (2004: 25), Oxysternon ebeninum is restricted to the upper Rio Negro watershed in northwestern Brazil, southern Venezuela and probably eastern Colombia. This means that the type locality French Guiana in Nevinson (1890: 315) and the subsequent inclusion of the Guianas in the distribution of this species in Gillet (1911b: 87), Olsoufieff (1924: 115), Blackwelder (1944: 210) and Arnaud (2002c: 67) are likely the result of a mislabeled specimen. Although the species could possibly occur in southern Guyana, this needs further investigation. Very limited collecting had been done in the research area prior to the publication of Edmonds and Zídek (2004), and the situation still leaves much to be desired. We therefore do not fully exclude the possibility that the species will eventually be found in French Guiana, but for now consider the record by Nevinson (1890) erroneous.

Other: Blackwelder 1944: 210 (Peru - as O. macleayi).
Note 1. In 1983 Arnaud labeled a specimen of Oxysternon macleayi as lectotype, but he published this designation only in 2002 (Arnaud 2002c). According to Edmonds and Zídek (2004: 17), this designation was invalid because it did not conform to Articles 74.7.2 and 74.7.3. Because of this, they designated another lectotype, which happened to be the same specimen. Contrary to Edmonds and Zídek (2004), we consider Arnaud’s lectotype designation fully in accordance with Article 74.7.3. However, we do acknowledge that there may be room for ambiguity regarding Article 74.7.2, as the lectotype label was written in 1983 but the designation was only published in 2002, without reference to this discrepancy in years. We therefore consider the lectotype of Edmonds and Zídek (2004) as the valid one.
Note 2. We are unaware of any recent records of Oxysternon macleayi from the Guianas, Brazil north of the Amazon or Venezuela. We consider it likely that the specimen from French Guiana mentioned in Olsoufieff (1924: 115) was mislabeled and regard this species as not occurring in the research area.

Subjects: visual language; graphics; connotative sign

description: The issue of visual identity is central to advertising projects and operationally starts from the design of an identifying brand even if with different aspects and ways of application, depending on the historical period and to the geographical and socio-cultural context. This diversification is well pointed out by the studies in place, that increasingly propose forms of flexible and mutant branding, according to logics very different from those applied in the past, derived from the rigid and static application of the sign in every form of communication instrument –from typographic material, to packaging, to online contributions and so on. Here is to emphasize a particular type of brand, that is the sound one, which belongs to the world of visual communication in motion and that, through the commercial spots, has entered everyday life, to check its possible interrelationship with two-dimensional visual graphical communication.

The playful character of creative alphabets. The case of cover art between the 1930s and the 1970s
Creators: name: Fatta, Francesca
Publisher: name: img journal
Year: 2020
Subjects: unusual alphabets; lettering; graphic experiments; cover art; artworks

description: What links Thomas More to Filippo Tommaso Marinetti? And how is the creativity of alphabets related to the cover art of vinyl records? And yet there is a common thread called lettering, which is variously articulated in the expressiveness of the typographic characters of the artists. There is a bi-planarity present in the letters of the alphabet: that of expression and that of content –signifier and signified meaning, but there is also an arbitrariness that does not connect, in any way, one to the other, the will of an alphabet to exist as an autonomous form of art. Lettering is perhaps the most appropriate area of graphics for experimenting, thinking, inventing, narrating and playing with elementary forms. Letters represent an extreme synthesis of the meanings of nature and of geometry and suggest unusual alphabets, prompting us to invent new stories. From the artistic avant-gardes of the 20th century, the playful revolution of lettering also invested the field of music with cover art. Many records are often first remembered, even more than for their music, for their cover art. The graphic design of the covers, moreover, often offers an intuition, at first glance, of the musical genre of the album and the personality of the artist. Today, the graphic design and the imaginative lettering of record covers have now become recognized as true forms of art.

Role of scaffolding protein in bacteriophage P22 morphogenesis

Publisher: name: University of Utah

Subjects: Herpesviridae

description: The scaffolding protein of the dsDNA bacteriophage P22 was studied in order to better understand the molecular basis of procapsid assembly. The procapsid is a structural precursor to the capsid, a protein shell that encloses and protects a viral chromosome. The phage P22 procapsid is composed of icosahedrally arranged coat protein subunits encasing a core of scaffolding protein and contains a ring of 12 portal protein subunits at one of its 12 icosahedral vertices. The scaffolding protein activates the assembly of coat protein subunits, directs the positioning of those subunits such that a closed shell of the correct dimension is formed, and is required for the inclusion of portal and injection proteins into the procapsid. DNA enters the procapsid through the portal vertex and the scaffolding protein exits the procapsid intact before DNA packaging is completed. How scaffolding protein accomplishes these processes is the focus of the work presented in this dissertation. The scaffolding protein was first examined by a functional domain analysis in vivo. Scaffolding protein truncation mutants were cloned and expressed in P22's host, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, during infection with a P22 strain defective in scaffolding protein synthesis. Mutants were tested for their ability to complement multiple rounds of infection, exit from the procapsid, recruit portal and injection proteins, and form procapsid-like particles. Successive N-terminal deletions defined the boundaries of amino acids necessary for these functions, including a 15 amino acid minimal coat protein binding domain. Scaffolding protein's ability to bind coat protein and promote assembly of procapsid-like particles both was also studied. Point mutations within the coat protein binding domain were generated and mutant scaffolding proteins were expressed in vivo during scaffolding deficient P22 infection. Fifteen different single amino acid substitutions failed to abrogate coat protein binding in vivo. Scaffolding protein mutants were subsequently overexpressed, purified, and assayed, in vitro, for the abilitiy bind coat protein as well as assemble procapsid-like particles from purified monomeric coat protein. Mutations that affected both processes were found.
Seeing, Feeling, and Hearing Time. Extensions of Representation Between Diagrams and Figures
Creators: name: Ippoliti, Elena
Publisher: name: img journal
Year: 2020
Subjects: representation; time; diagram; figure

description: This essay proposes reflections on the figural and diagrammatic extent of representation, adopting for the purpose a particular ‘object’, i.e. time and temporality. This ‘object’ cannot be detected by our senses, but we ‘feel’ it so convincingly that we imagine a space in which things and events are immersed in time, in its flowing. It drags on to the future according to a temporality that can be regulated by the rigour of the principle of causality, or the probable relationship between beginning and end, or it advances only to return inexorably and cyclically back to itself. This essay therefore serves as an opportunity to progress along some of the many paths of representation and to observe and verify some possible extensions, reflecting on certain evidence from reasoning, different ‘excellent’ representations, or even teaching experiences. While only partial, these reflections aim to underline how a representation always and contextually acts according to two the registers of diagram and figure. According to these acceptations therefore, a representation is not only a ‘machine for presenting’ but also a ‘machine for thinking’ and what is more, a ‘machine for imagining’.

Subjects: cross-section; etching; ground; imaginary landscapes

description: Since the second half of the 19th century, the evolution of culture produced an increasing fragmentation and specialization of knowledge that had essential effects also on architecture. As well as other effects, the birth of several specialisms led to a more strong necessity of distinction between the ‘artistic’ ways of drawing and a more technical and scientific approach, proper of the architecture discipline. More, in general, this process was simultaneous to the separation between the Academies and the newborn Schools of Architecture. A phenomenon that has subsequently distanced architects from the knowledge of a world of materials and techniques become increasingly distant from the universe of architectural representation. This lack of cultural contamination between forms, techniques and languages produced a reduction of the ways to express imagination, limiting the means to amplify the narrative space of the drawing. As a consequence, in the more recent panorama of architectural design, the opportunities for some impartial, hybrid and highly critical narrations become extraordinarily rarefied, as the individual expression of few outstanding protagonists. Starting from this analysis, the research assumes as experimental field one iconographic model: the cross-section, and one technical space: the etching. These two components become themes for building a theoretical framework and realize practical experience. The result is a going on work consisting of a series of etchings reassuming the desire to describe, in a way suspended between reality and fiction, the complex interaction between humanity, soil and environment.

Note. Hamel-Leigue et al. (2009: 65) mention Phanaeus cambeforti for Guyana but not for French Guiana, even though that is the type locality. Because we are unaware of any other sources mentioning this species for Guyana, we suspect that an error was made in the translation or interpretation, and that Hamel-Leigue et al. (2009) meant to write French Guiana instead of Guyana. For this checklist we interpret it as such, which means that the species stays unrecorded for Guyana.

description: Novel pyrazolyl 2-hydroxychalcone derivatives 3a–e and pyrazolylpyrazoline derivatives 4a–e and 5a–j derived from the naturally existing furochromone (Khellin) were synthesized and evaluated for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Most of the synthesized compounds showed better or comparable activity to that of Diclofenac as reference drug. Twelve compounds were evaluated for their ulcerogenic potential and exhibited no ulcerogenic effect. In addition compounds 3c, 5c and 5h as examples showed PGE2 inhibition % 88.86, 65.87 and 44.06, respectively and TNFα inhibition % 48.62, 31.11 and 16.02, respectively in rat serum samples. Compounds 3c, 5c, 5h and Celecoxib were subjected to in vitro COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition assay, showed selectivity index 45.04, 102.04, 131.58 and 185.18, respectively. The computational finding supported those of in vitro, where the pyrazolylpyrazolines interacted with the COX-2 enzyme in a similar orientation to that of Celecoxib, while chlacones were found to exhibit similar orientation to that of Diclofenac.

Subjects: infographic; graphic design; boundaries; geography diagram

description: Keeping wondering about the value of the military barriers built with defensive purposes, we continue our study reaching the present day. This time, the attempt to transpose graphically a phenomenon that is difficult to perceive because of its dimensional and social magnitude prompted us to use as the interpretation key the comparison between two great defence works, belonging to the same kind: the continuous wall system. The Great Wall of China and the Tijuana Wall are two experiences that may appear similar, but they are culturally and temporally distant. This essay analyses them aiming to generate a tool for understanding the phenomenon of building spaces. In order to do this, the graphic synthesis process becomes the place for thinking about the ideological contents and the social involvements that are intrinsic in every single barrier built.

Memory and Absence. The family house in two autobiographical graphic novels
Creators: name: Trizio, Ilaria
Publisher: name: img journal
Year: 2020
Subjects: graphic novel; comic books and architecture; sequential drawing; Alison Bechdel; Paco Roca

description: In this contribution, which starts with an analysis of the already consolidated relationship between architecture and comics, then tries to look deeper into the role of the family home within two graphic novels. Based on some theories, the comic book itself is a suitable medium for investigating stories related to buildings because the comic book pages recall the sections and shapes of the buildings. Looking instead into the merits of the two stories analyzed, beyond the obvious similarities and the inevitable differences between them, what emerges strongly is that the houses around which the stories rotate provide the opportunity to reflect profoundly on memory and absence. The accuracy of the details with which the two cartoonists manage to characterize their respective houses represents a refined exercise of memory and results in the houses themselves becoming protagonists of these stories, in which their respective fathers are absent, and whose lives have been spent in a large part in building those houses.

description: In dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) models, it seems relevant to consider the uncertainty inherent to motorist route choices. Particularly, choices on realistic transport networks are mostly made using motorists' perceived costs of all routes from their origins to their destinations. We present an approach to address stochastic DTA based on nested cost operators, where motorists choose according to the perceived costs of the remaining trip, namely, from current position to destination. We integrate the Markovian traffic equilibrium by Baillon and Cominetti with the DTA formulation by Addison and Heydecker obtaining an arc-based stochastic DTA model, which we denote in short as ABSDTA. The resulting approach accommodates overlapping routes, respecting costs' correlation as well as the first-in-first-out rule. We present a solution method for discrete time periods, computational results on an illustrative network, including sensitivity analyses of the parameters, and comparisons with a previous suitable stochastic DTA model from the literature.
When does the Image become a Document? More History of Representation for New Drawings

description: Images risk homologation. The ever-greater ease with which we can acquire, generate, reproduce and communicate images, together with current intercultural tendencies (too often dictated by globalization), impose continual historical-technocultural reflections on criticism. Studies able to critically elaborate the state of the art of architectural representation, highlighting positivism and negativity of the revolutionary conquests of humanity. In its general aspects, the theme is known, and has been variously treated by critics who have debated opportunities and risks. Especially in those disciplines where ‘to represent means to conform’, as for architecture, the exceptional potential energy contained in the current post-digital techno-cultures imposes specific cultural deepening. One of these concerns the risk of homologation and ‘improper’ use of the meaning of architectural images: representations which, between real and virtual, ideal and utopian, materialize, in a historical context, the sense of human living. The antidote to the images homologation here proposed is known and consists in amplifying and updating the historical knowledge of the phenomenon: it means, in short, decoding, contextualizing in a historical path and transforming into knowledge that pervasive flow of images (information) we are all continually subjected to. That’s why, against the risk of the images homologation and their conformative use, I hope more history of representation!

description: Vismia gracilis extracts were tested against Aedes aegypti to assess mortality and behavioural effects. The leaf hexanic extract (L-Hex) presented increased larvicidal activity with exposure period: LC50 46.48 µg/mL (24 h) and LC50 20.57 µg/mL (48 h). Eight compounds were annotated/isolated from the L-Hex active extract, 4 benzophenones and 4 anthraquinones. Considering chemometric findings, the benzophenone moiety, tested as the commercial benzophenone, promoted larval mortality (LC50 16.35 µg/mL). Both the L-Hex extract and benzophenone induced intestinal damage in larvae. Benzophenone also promoted toxicity and behavioural effects in female adults. These findings highlighted the potential use of this class of compounds for developing vector-control products.

description: The following text is the transcript of the keynote held at the IMG2017 conference at the Facolty of Education of the Free University of Bozen, on November 27, 2017 in Brixen campus, on a video plenary session. Seven problems are presented to define some stable points and some perspective to outline a theory of images. The seven problems are: 1. Why it may be a good thing that few people know what image is. 2. What is not an image? 3. Aesthetics and politics. 4. Do images have a nature? 5. The madness of cassifying images. 6. The limits of scholarships’ attention to detail. 7. The materiality of image.

Impact of an introduced parasite on Darwin's Finches

description: Invasive parasites are a growing problem as humans continue to traverse the globe. The impact invasive parasites have on naive host populations is the focus of my dissertation. To date, the Galapagos Islands remain one of the most well-preserved archipelagos, with no known extinctions of endemic bird species. However, the recent introduction of Philornis downsi, an obligate nest parasite, threatens birds across the islands, including the iconic Darwin's finches.  Using an experimental manipulation of parasite abundance in nests, my work shows the detrimental effect P. downsi has on fledging success in medium ground finches (Geospiza fortis). I explore the mechanisms underlying these effects by investigating the impact of P. downsi on nestling growth and condition. I demonstrate that adult medium ground finches and seven other species of Darwin's finches produce P. downsi-specific antibodies. Nestling medium ground finches did not have detectable P. downsi-specific  antibodies nor was there evidence of maternally transferred antibodies. Parental behavior also changed in response to P. downsi parasitism, though neither immunological nor behavioral responses were effective against P. downsi, and did not result in increased  host reproductive success. Finally, using data from my three-year study, I present a model that predicts population viability of medium ground finches in light of the observed effects of P. downsi on host fitness. The model predicts that medium ground finches on the island of Santa Cruz are likely to go extinct within the next half century unless conservation efforts are able to significantly reduce P. downsi populations.  My work highlights the dramatic impact an introduced parasite can have on naive host populations. Parasites with low host-specificity and high rates of dispersal, such as P. downsi, can maintain high levels of virulence. In combination with ineffective host defense mechanisms, introduced parasites can lead to severe host population declines, even extinctions.
