title: Developing a framework for describing, planning and evaluating empowerment in architectural making projects
Creators: name: Taylor, Piers
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2021

description: The aim of this practice based thesis is to develop a framework to describe and evaluate the empowerment that takes place in the course of participatory ‘making’ in an architectural context. ‘Making’ research in architectural contexts is widespread, but it is predominately concerned with making as a techo-focussed activity, where digitally driven practices can offer opportunities for novel artefacts or opportunities for increased control for architect/makers. There is limited research in making in co-design contexts when empowerment for makers via the act of making is a concern. As a result, my research and this thesis also explore what strategies need to be put in place to allow effective integration of cross-disciplinary codesigners, or even those that may not be aware that they are carrying out design, and describes the social transformations that occur in addition to the material ones. The aim of the study was both to test my thesis proposition that such projects can be described in terms of materials, prompts and subsequent empowerment. A deep case study of an architectural making project, Solar Mirrors led by Kate Darby and Gianni Botsford at Studio in the Woods, was used to generate an in-depth, understanding of complex issues in their real-life context as a test bed for this thesis. This was an important step along the journey to developing a framework for the description and evaluation of architectural making projects. My findings showed that ‘materials & prompts’ are an effective way of demonstrating and defining the route to empowerment in an architectural making project. I illustrated when the materials and prompts can be deployed, and building on this knowledge I set out a framework for describing and setting out what happens/could happen in an architectural making project when empowerment is a desired outcome with a new Plan of Empowered Architectural Making (EAM), a version/plug-in for the commonly used RIBA Plan of Work.

description: We have carried out detailed bulk and local probe studies on the hexagonal oxides Ba3MIr2O9 (M=Sc,Y) where Ir is expected to have a fractional oxidation state of +4.5. In the structure, Ir-Ir dimers are arranged in an edge shared triangular network parallel to the ab plane. Whereas only weak anomalies are evident in the susceptibility data, clearer anomalies are present in the heat capacity data. Our 45Sc nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) lineshape (first order quadrupole split) is symmetric at room temperature but becomes progressively asymmetric with decreasing temperatures. This is suggestive of distortions in the structure which could arise from progressive tilt/rotation of the IrO6 octahedra with a decrease in temperature T. The 45Sc NMR spectral weight shifts near the reference frequency with decreasing T indicating the development of magnetic singlet regions. Around 10K, a significant change in the spectrum takes place with a large intensity appearing near the reference frequency but with the spectrum remaining multi-peak. It appears from our 45Sc NMR data that in Ba3ScIr2O9 significant disorder is still present below 10K. In the case of Ba3YIr2O9, the 89Y NMR spectral lines are asymmetric at high temperatures but become nearly symmetric (single magnetic environment) below T~70K. Our 89Y spectra and T1 measurements confirm the onset of long range ordering (LRO) from a bulk of the sample at 4K in this compound. Our results suggest that Ba3YIr2O9 might be structurally distorted at room temperature (via, for example, tilt/rotations of the IrO6 octahedra) but becomes progressively a regular triangular lattice with decreasing T. The effective magnetic moments and magnetic entropy changes are strongly reduced in Ba3YIr2O9 as compared to those expected for a S=1/2 system. Similar effects have been found in other iridates which naturally have strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC).

description: Misregulation of neuronal macroautophagy/autophagy has been implicated in age-related neurodegenerative diseases. We compared autophagosome formation and maturation in primary murine neurons during development and through aging to elucidate how aging affects neuronal autophagy. We observed an age-related decrease in the rate of autophagosome formation leading to a significant decrease in the density of autophagosomes along the axon. Next, we identified a surprising increase in the maturation of autophagic vesicles in neurons from aged mice. While we did not detect notable changes in endolysosomal content in the distal axon during early aging, we did observe a significant loss of acidified vesicles in the distal axon during late aging. Interestingly, we found that autophagic vesicles were transported more efficiently in neurons from adult mice than in neurons from young mice. This efficient transport of autophagic vesicles in both the distal and proximal axon is maintained in neurons during early aging, but is lost during late aging. Our data indicate that early aging does not negatively impact autophagic vesicle transport nor the later stages of autophagy. However, alterations in autophagic vesicle transport efficiency during late aging reveal that aging differentially impacts distinct aspects of neuronal autophagy.

description: Something makes people want to walk, ride or climb to the mountaintops - how dangerous an undertaking this may be because of conditions of terrain and weather. It is something completely irrational. Some have themselves brought to the tops of mountains with trains, cable cars and even helicopters. It is often thought that this is to appreciate a sublime, untameable nature, since it has been already the theme of many a sublime Romantic painting or poem. But in fact most Alpine mountain tops are as artificial as a Dutch polder, not just with the crosses on top, but with mines dug underneath, avalanche protection, restaurants, hotels, ski slopes, ski lifts, half-pipes for snowboarders, artificial lakes to produce artificial snow, a view of the urbanized valley below, and in summer, cows not for the production of milk and meat but for maintenance. All of this is realized only to enable people dressed in special clothes, helmets, and harnesses, to throw themselves down again literally as soon as they have arrived on top, using sleighs, skis, snowboards or specially designed and high-tech so-called freeride mountain bikes.
Form factors and non-local Multiplicative Anomaly for fermions with background torsion

description: We analyse the Multiplicative Anomaly (MA) in the case of quantized massive fermions coupled to a background torsion. The one-loop Effective Action (EA) can be expressed in terms of the logarithm of determinant of the appropriate first-order differential operator acting in the spinors space. Simple algebraic manipulations on determinants must be used in order to apply properly the Schwinger-DeWitt technique, or even the covariant perturbation theory (Barvinsky and Vilkovisky, 1990), which is used in the present work. By this method, we calculate the finite non-local quantum corrections, and analyse explicitly the breakdown of those algebraic manipulations on determinants, called by MA. This feature comes from the finite non-local EA, but does not affect the results in the UV limit, in particular the beta-functions. Similar results was also obtained in previous papers but for different external fields (QED and scalar field).

Stability Analysis of Strange-Modes in Hot Massive Stars with Time-Dependent Convection

description: We carry out a nonadiabatic analysis of strange-modes in hot massive stars with time-dependent convection (TDC). In envelopes of such stars, convective luminosity is not so dominant as that in envelopes of stars in the redder side of the classical instability strip. Around the Fe opacity bump, however, convection non-negligibly contributes to energy transfer. Indeed, instability of modes excited at the Fe bump is likely to be suppressed with TDC compared with the case of adopting the frozen-in convection approximation. But we make sure that unstable strange-modes certainly appear in hot massive stars even by taking into account TDC. We also examine properties of the strange-mode instability, which is related to destabilization of strange-modes without adiabatic counterparts. In this type of instability, the phase lag between density and pressure varies from 0 to $180^{\circ}$ in an excitation zone unlike the case of the $κ$-mechanism. In addition, we confirm by comparing models with $Z=0$ and $Z=0.02$ that dominance of radiation pressure is important for this type of instability.

description: Several selective macroautophagy receptor and adaptor proteins bind members of the Atg8 (autophagy related 8) family using short linear motifs (SLiMs), most often referred to as Atg8-family interacting motifs (AIMs) or LC3-interacting regions (LIRs). AIM/LIR motifs have been extensively studied during the last fifteen years, since they can uncover the underlying biological mechanisms and possible substrates for this key catabolic process of eukaryotic cells. Prompted by the fact that experimental information regarding LIR motifs can be found scattered across heterogeneous literature resources, we have developed LIRcentral (https://lircentral.eu), a freely available online repository for user-friendly access to comprehensive, high-quality information regarding LIR motifs from manually curated publications. Herein, we describe the development of LIRcentral and showcase currently available data and features, along with our plans for the expansion of this resource. Information incorporated in LIRcentral is useful for accomplishing a variety of research tasks, including: (i) guiding wet biology researchers for the characterization of novel instances of LIR motifs, (ii) giving bioinformaticians/computational biologists access to high-quality LIR motifs for building novel prediction methods for LIR motifs and LIR containing proteins (LIRCPs) and (iii) performing analyses to better understand the biological importance/features of functional LIR motifs. We welcome feedback on the LIRcentral content and functionality by all interested researchers and anticipate this work to spearhead a community effort for sustaining this resource which will further promote progress in studying LIR motifs/LIRCPs.

The clandestine cinema of Bengal: genesis, evolution and praxis

Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis will investigate and analyse the evolution of a dissident Bengali cinema since the 2010s taking into consideration three filmmakers, Q, Pradipta Bhattacharyya and Aditya Vikram Sengupta. The films that these filmmakers make are deeply political where politics is regarded less around formal experimentation but around the structures of production, living up to Godard’s famous adage “not to make political films, but to make films politically” (Hoberman, 2005). The thesis aims at investigating the rise of this “Clandestine Cinema” through its social, political, and aesthetic contexts. The research takes into account class relations and class struggles as a vector in (cinematic) production. Bengali cinema post-independence evolved with ideologies based on socialist and progressive discourses which influenced the aesthetics of realism till the end of 1970s. The formation of new social relations due to expropriation and depopulation of the land since late 1970s had profound effects. With rising unemployment and disintegration of the proletariat into the class of the lumpenproletariat, marginalization and disenfranchisement became the social realties. This paved the way for a new lumpen aesthetics which distinguished itself from realism. This study investigates these social relations and subsequent changes in aesthetics. By the beginning of new millennium, neoliberal strategies and the rise of Hindutva caused further fragmentation of social relations which affected the production, distribution, and exhibition of Bengali cinema through deepening corporatization and control of discourse. The presence and practices of clandestine filmmaking are ignored and obscured. The concept of the clandestine will be examined through the exploitation of the productive class which have evolved historically, and how exploitation have led to the contemporary politics of alienation. This narrative of alienation creates a crisis which has deterred experimentation and the creation of new cinematic voices, a paradigm which was native and profound to the cinematic tradition of Bengal since independence. The films of the clandestine dramatize contemporary social relations and class struggles. But the Clandestine is not only a narrative of alienation, it also a story of struggle: struggle which subverts these forces of alienation.

description: Polar crown prominences are made of chromospheric plasma partially circling the Suns poles between 60 and 70 degree latitude. We aim to diagnose the 3D dynamics of a polar crown prominence using high cadence EUV images from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/AIA at 304 and 171A and the Ahead spacecraft of the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO-A)/EUVI at 195A. Using time series across specific structures we compare flows across the disk in 195A with the prominence dynamics seen on the limb. The densest prominence material forms vertical columns which are separated by many tens of Mm and connected by dynamic bridges of plasma that are clearly visible in 304/171A two-color images. We also observe intermittent but repetitious flows with velocity 15 km/s in the prominence that appear to be associated with EUV bright points on the solar disk. The boundary between the prominence and the overlying cavity appears as a sharp edge. We discuss the structure of the coronal cavity seen both above and around the prominence. SDO/HMI and GONG magnetograms are used to infer the underlying magnetic topology. The evolution and structure of the prominence with respect to the magnetic field seems to agree with the filament linkage model.

description: Using a large sample of field and group galaxies drawn from the Pan-STARRS1 Medium-Deep Survey, we present the specific star formation rate (SSFR) - stellar mass (M*) relation, as well as the quiescent fraction versus M* relation in different environments. We confirm that the fraction of quiescent galaxies is strongly dependent on environment at a fixed stellar mass, but that the amplitude and the slope of the star-forming sequence is similar between the field and groups: in other words, the SSFR-density relation at a fixed stellar mass is primarily driven by the change in the star-forming and quiescent fractions between different environments rather than a global suppression in the star formation rate for the star-forming population. However, when we restrict our sample to the cluster-scale environments ($M>10^{14}M_{solar}$), we find a global reduction in the SSFR of the star forming sequence of $17\%$ at 4$σ$ confidence as opposed to its field counterpart. After removing the stellar mass dependence of the quiescent fraction seen in field galaxies, the excess in the quiescent fraction due to the environment quenching in groups and clusters is found to increase with stellar mass. We argue that these results are in favor of galaxy mergers to be the primary environment quenching mechanism operating in galaxy groups whereas strangulation is able to reproduce the observed trend in the environment quenching efficiency and stellar mass relation seen in clusters. Our results also suggest that the relative importance between mass quenching and environment quenching depends on stellar mass -- the mass quenching plays a dominant role in producing quiescent galaxies for more massive galaxies, while less massive galaxies are quenched mostly through the environmental effect, with the transition mass around $1-2\times10^{10}M_{solar}$ in the group/cluster environment.

We construct the trajectories of such processes for all time by restarting them whenever an explosion occurs, from a new (well chosen) initial condition, insuring continuity of the eigenvectors and of the non exploding eigenvalues. We characterize the dynamics of the spectrum in the limit of large dimension and analyze the stationary state of this evolution explicitly. We exhibit a sharp phase transition for the limiting spectral density $ρ_a$ at a critical value $a=a^*$. If $a\geq a^*$, then the potential $V_a$ presents a well near $x=\sqrt{a}$ deep enough to confine all the particles inside, and the spectral density $ρ_a$ is supported on a compact interval. If $a

Lurking pseudovectors below the TeV scale

description: If electroweak symmetry breaking is driven by a new strongly-coupled dynamical sector, one expects their bound states to appear at the TeV scale or slightly below. However, electroweak precision data imposes severe constraints on most of the existing models, putting them under strain. Conventional models require the new composite states to come in pairs of rather heavy, close to degenerate spin-1 resonances. In this paper I argue that spin-1 states can actually be lighter without clashing with experimental bounds. As an example, I consider a composite model with a light pseudovector resonance that couples to the Standard Model gauge boson, fermion and scalar fields. I show how such a resonance leaves basically no imprint on the NLO corrections to the Standard Model. This happens not through parameter tuning, but rather as a consequence of generic properties of realistic UV completions. This pseudovector is mostly unconstrained by existing data and could be as light as 600 GeV. In the last part of the paper I briefly discuss its most characteristic signatures for direct detection at colliders.

description: Fitting PDFs requires the integration of a broad range of datasets, both from data and theory side, into a unique framework. While for data the integration mainly consists in the standardization of the data format, for the theory predictions there are multiple ingredients involved. Different providers are developed by separate groups for different processes, with a variety of inputs (runcards) and outputs (interpolation grids). Moreover, since processes are measured at different scales, DGLAP evolution has to be provided for the PDF candidate, or precomputed into the grids. We are working towards the automation of all these steps in a unique framework, that will be useful for any PDF fitting groups, and possibly also for phenomenological studies.

description: We demonstrate the direct photothermal probing and mapping of single plasmonic nanostructures via the temperature induced detuning of nanomechanical string resonators. Single Au nanoslits are illuminated with a low-power polarized focused laser beam (λ = 633 nm). Polarization dependent heat generation in gold nanoslits is then imaged with high sensitivity. A sensitivity of -4.1 ppm/nW with respect to the illuminated light (beam diameter 5.0pm0.8 μm) is determined for a single nanoslit (1 μm long and 53 nm wide), which equals to a total light absorption of 16%. This results in a heating of 0.5 K for an illuminance of 8 nW/μm2. Our results show that nanomechanical resonators are a unique and robust analysis tool for the low-power investigation of thermoplasmonic effects in plasmonic hot spots.

description: The RESEDA (Resonant Spin-Echo for Diverse Applications) instrument has been optimized for neutron scattering measurements of quasi-elastic and inelastic processes over a wide parameter range. One spectrometer arm of RESEDA is configured for the MIEZE (Modulation of Intensity with Zero Effort) technique, where the measured signal is an oscillation in neutron intensity over time prepared by two precisely tuned radio-frequency (RF) flippers. With MIEZE, all spin-manipulations are performed before the beam reaches the sample, and thus the signal from sample scattering is not disrupted by any depolarizing conditions there (i.e. magnetic materials and fields). The MIEZE spectrometer is being further optimized for the requirements of small angle neutron scattering (MIASANS), a versatile combination of the spatial and dynamical resolving power of both techniques. We present the current status of (i) the newly installed superconducting solenoids as part of the RF flippers to significantly extend the dynamic range (ii) the development and installation of a new detector on a translation stage within a new larger SANS-type vacuum vessel for flexibility with angular coverage and resolution, and (iii) the efforts to reduce background.

Non-philosophy, the "No" Button, and a Brief Philo-fiction

description: Non-philosophy—and espe-cially that associated with the name François Laruelle—has in the last few years surged forward in those circles of radically-minded philosophers who seem to view themselves at some liminality of thought that is singularly new.  Non-philosophy admits few, if any, philo-friends, and from those few named in-person it seems predominantly to separate itself.  There is no doubt a certain pleasure in negation, a certain jouis-sance in the partitioning of the shared.  I was reminded of such whole body joy of “no” by what could be argued was an inappropriate Christmas gift:  a “no” button.

His project is to carry out an “adventure” analogous to that of non-Euclidean geometry, this time within philosophy.1 But whereas Lobachevsky developed his hyper-bolic geometry without first trying to demonstrate that the fifth postulate was false (i.e. without trying to demonstrate the consistency of Euclidean geometry sans the fifth postulate, with its negation), Meillassoux believes he can demonstrate that the PSR is (absolutely) false.2 Indeed, it is his view that this proof involves a species of certainty – or at any rate fun-damentality – not available in mathematics.

description: Dendrobaena veneta (Rosa, 1886) is widely distributed all over Europe due to its use as compost worm. The specimen presented here was collected in Tiranë district, Albania. Currently, only two species’ complete or nearly complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences have been reported in the genus Dendrobaena; D. octaedra (Savigny, 1826) and D. tellermanica Perel, 1966. In this study, the complete mitogenome of D. veneta was sequenced, assembled, and annotated. The mitogenome of D. veneta is a circular DNA molecule, consisting of 15,475 bp with an A + T content of 61.2%. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 non-coding region (control region). Phylogenetic analysis showed that D. veneta is clustered with the other two Dendrobaena species in the well-supported family Lumbricidae.
New Realism: A Short Introduction
Creators: name: Ferraris, Maurizio
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: New realism is perhaps the only philosophical movement of which one may indicate the exact date of birth: it was June 23, 2011 at 13.30 at the restaurant “Al Vinacciolo” in Via Gennaro Serra 29, Naples. I can be so accurate because I was there, with Markus Ga-briel and his Italian collaborator Simone Maestrone, after a seminar at the Italian Institute for Philosophical Studies. Markus was founding an international centre of philosophy in Bonn and wanted to inaugurate it with a big conference. I told him that the right title would have been “New Realism”, since it captured what in my opinion was the fundamental character of contemporary philosophy: a certain weariness of postmodernism and the belief that everything is constructed, by language, conceptual schemes and the media. Well, it is not like that: something, or rather, much more than we are willing to admit, is not constructed – and this is a wonderful thing, otherwise we could not distinguish dreams from reality. I announced the conference a few weeks later, in an article published in “La Repubblica” on August 8, 2011, and since then the debate has never ceased, both in Italy and abroad2, with contributions that include many of my writings on the subject,3 the book by Markus Gabriel4 and that by Mauricio Beuchot and José Luis Jerez.

On the phase diagram of the 2d Ising model with frustrating dipole interaction

description: Due to intrinsic frustrations of interaction, the 2d Ising model with competing ferromagnetic short-range nearest-neighbour and antiferromagnetic long-range dipole interactions possesses a rich phase diagram. The order of the phase transition from the striped h=1 phase to the tetragonal phase that is observed in this model has been a subject of recent controversy. We address this question using the partition function density analysis in the complex temperature plane. Our results support the second-order phase transition scenario. To measure the strength of the phase transition we calculate the values of the specific heat critical exponent $α$. Along with the space dimension D, it appears to depend on the ratio of strength of the short-range and long-range interactions.

A Dialogue between Graham Harman and Tristan Garcia

description: We are very pleased to welcome two special guests who will be having a special dialogue. For the next hour and fifteen minutes, we will talk about things.Things and objects - as Noortje Marres has just shown1 - are traditionally only half of what philosophy is about; half of the duo of the subject and the object; the human and the thing. In Graham Harman’s words, philosophy traditionally had a ‘human-world duopoly’2, a dual monarchy of human and world, a ‘Habsburg metaphysics’3 forever incapable of considering humans as ‘just one kind of entity among trillions of others’,4 and equally incapable of considering what things do when there’s no humans around. Objects are pushed from the centre stage to the periphery of philosophy, as human consciousness lays a claim to total power.

Review of Graham Harman, Weird Realism: Lovecraft and Philosophy

description: Lovecraftian. A term used to describe a story evocative of, or inspired by, the works of horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. Given his widening influence in genre fiction, it is also a term increasingly in vogue. But what do we mean when we say that a short story or novel (or even a poem) is Lovecraftian? In his creative, original take on the possible philosophical implications of Lovecraft’s fiction, Graham Harman gives us some clues as to what is meant and implied by the term.

description: To remain viable and thrive, software organizations must rapidly adapt to frequent, and often rather far-ranging, changes to their operational context. These changes typically concern many factors, including the nature of the organization's marketplace in general, its customers' demands, and its business needs. In today's most highly dynamic contexts, such as web services development, other changes create additional, severe challenges. Most critical are changes to the technology in which a software product is written or which the software product has to control or use to provide its functionality. These product-support technology changes are frequently relatively 'small' and incremental. They are, therefore, often handled by relatively 'small,' incremental changes to the organization's software processes. However, the frequency of these changes is high, and their impact is elevated by time-to-market and requirements change demands. The net result is an extremely challenging need to create and manage a large number of customized process variants, collectively having more commonalities than differences, and incorporating experience-based, proven 'best practices'. This paper describes a tool-based approach to coping with product-support technology changes. The approach utilizes established capabilities such as descriptive process modeling and the creation of reference models. It incorporates a new, innovative, tool-based capability to analyze commonalities and differences among processes. The paper includes an example-based evaluation of the approach in the domain of Wireless Internet Services as well as a discussion of its potentially broader application.

description: The genus Allium comprises some of the most commonly consumed food crops worldwide. The chloroplast genomes of A. sacculiferum, A. thunbergii, and A. taquetii are 152,444, 153,459, and 154,056 bp circular molecular genomes, respectively. The annotation results revealed the presence of 132 (89 protein-coding, 35 tRNA, and eight rRNA), 132 (86 protein-coding, 38 tRNA, and eight rRNA), and 132 (86 protein-coding, 38 tRNA, and eight rRNA) genes with 36.78%, 36.83%, and 36.88% total GC content in each genome, respectively. The chloroplast genome of each Allium species contains an 81,254, 82,473, and 83,068 bp LSC region, an 18,176, 18,006, and 17,958 bp SSC region, and a pair of 26,507, 26,490, and 26,515 bp IR regions, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 21 complete chloroplast genomes indicates that A. sacculiferum is closely related to A. koreanum; A. thunbergii and A taquetii are closely related to A. hookeri. This study shows that the three Allium species are Korean crop wild relatives that may be used to develop new Allium varieties in the future.
