description: This study explored pulsed frequency could enhance the anammox bacteria growth rate and TN removal rate at low temperature(16 ± 1℃). The results showed that the growth rate of anammox bacteria in R1 (1000 Hz) was significantly higher than R2 (30 Hz) and R3 (106Hz). The relative abundance of anammox bacteria R1 were higher 52.21%, 172.41% than R2 and R3, while MLSS as higher 241.07%, 471.36% than R2 and R3, with the nitrogen loading rate at 6.84 kg-N/m³/d. Besides, the dynamics also showed that the specific anammox activity (SAA) and the cellular yield of R1 were higher than R2 and R3. The intermediate frequency could enhance the cell division by stimulating the anammoxosome and reduce the ionic hydration layer to accelerate ion migration rate, further to improve the number of anammox bacteria even at low temperature. The pulsed frequency could enhance anammox growth rate, and doubling time just 5 days.

description: Background Peanut and tree nut allergies are common in childhood and often severe in nature. The clinical picture shows a wide variety of symptoms. Objective To analyze the distribution of clinical symptoms and severity during oral food challenges (OFC) in children. Methods Analysis of 1.013 prospectively recorded, positive OFCs with peanut (n = 607), hazelnut (n = 266), walnut (n = 97), and cashew (n = 43). Symptoms were categorized as immediate-type skin, gastrointestinal, upper and lower respiratory, cardiovascular symptoms, and eczema exacerbation. Symptom severity and treatment were recorded. Results Skin symptoms presented in 78%, followed by gastrointestinal (47%), upper (42%), and lower respiratory symptoms (32%). Cardiovascular symptoms presented in 6%. In three-quarter of the reactions, more than one organ was involved. Importantly, severe reactions occurred at every dose level. Peanut- and cashew-allergic patients had a higher relative risk of gastrointestinal symptoms compared with hazelnut- and walnut-allergic patients. Patients without vomiting had a 1.7 times higher risk developing immediate-type skin and/or lower respiratory symptoms. Three-quarter of the patients ever had eczema but worsening presented in only 10.5% of the OFCs. In patients with multiple food allergies, organs involved, eliciting dose and severity differed between allergens. Conclusion Although comparisons between allergen groups with different clinical history, severity, comorbidities and laboratory data are difficult and might contain bias, our data confirm the high allergenic potential of peanut and tree nuts. The rare occurrence of eczema worsening emphasizes that avoidance diets of peanuts and tree nuts to cure eczema seem to be unnecessary and may hamper tolerance maintenance.

description: Human organoid systems recapitulate key features of organs offering platforms for modelling developmental biology and disease. Tissue-derived organoids have been widely used to study the impact of extrinsic niche factors on stem cells. However, they are rarely used to study endogenous gene function due to the lack of efficient gene manipulation tools. Previously, we established a human foetal lung organoid system (Nikolić et al., 2017). Here, using this organoid system as an example we have systematically developed and optimised a complete genetic toolbox for use in tissue-derived organoids. This includes 'Organoid Easytag' our efficient workflow for targeting all types of gene loci through CRISPR-mediated homologous recombination followed by flow cytometry for enriching correctly-targeted cells. Our toolbox also incorporates conditional gene knock-down or overexpression using tightly-inducible CRISPR interference and CRISPR activation which is the first efficient application of these techniques to tissue-derived organoids. These tools will facilitate gene perturbation studies in tissue-derived organoids facilitating human disease modelling and providing a functional counterpart to many on-going descriptive studies, such as the Human Cell Atlas Project.

description: In 2011 NHS England commissioned a new national specialist MDT service for patients and families affected by Stickler syndrome. The Stickler syndromes form part of the spectrum of inherited vitreoretinopathies and are the most common cause of retinal detachment in childhood and the most common cause of familial retinal detachment. Now in its 10th year, the Stickler Highly Specialised Service (HSS) has assessed 1673 patients from 785 families. Using a combination of accurate phenotyping and molecular genetic analysis it is possible to identify the underlying genetic mutation in over 95% of cases including those with deep intronic mutations likely to be missed by conventional exome panel analysis and which require whole gene sequencing and supplementary functional analysis to confirm pathogenicity. The vast majority that presents to ophthalmologists will be from one of three autosomal dominant sub-groups with a high associated risk of retinal detachment but the diagnosis is often overlooked, especially in adults. In contrast to many other blinding retinal conditions, blindness through giant retinal tear detachment particularly in children is largely preventable provided these high-risk groups are identified and appropriate evidence-based prophylaxis offered. This article summarises ten selected briefcase histories from the national dataset with key learning points from each.

description: Over the past years, the lambda-Orionis cluster has been a prime location for the study of young very low mass stars, substellar and isolated planetary mass objects and the determination of the initial mass function and other properties of low mass cluster members. In the continuity of our previous studies of young associations cores, we search for ultracool members and new multiple systems within the central 5.3' (~0.6pc) of the cluster. We obtained deep seeing limited J, Ks-band images of the 5.3' central part of the cluster with NTT/SofI and H-band images with CAHA/Omega2000. These images were complemented by multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) H and Ks images of the 1.5' central region of the lambda-Orionis cluster obtained with the prototype MCAO facility MAD at the VLT. The direct vicinity of the massive lambda-Ori O8III-star was probed using NACO/SDI at the VLT. Finally, we also retrieved Spitzer IRAC images of the same area and used archival Subaru Suprime-Cam and CFHT CFHT12K i-band images. We report the detection of 9 new member candidates selected from optical and near-IR color-color and color-magnitude diagrams and 7 previously known members. The high spatial resolution images resolve 3 new visual multiple systems. Two of them are most likely not members of the association. The third one is made of a brown dwarf candidate companion to the F8V star HD36861C. The simultaneous differential images allow us to rule out the presence of visual companions more massive than M>0.07Msun in the range 1-2.5", and M>0.25Msun in the range 0.5-2.5"

description: Heavy metal exposure has been associated with lung function decline, but there is still a lack of evidence on preschoolers. In this study, we evaluated cross-sectional associations between urinary metal levels and slow vital capacity (SVC) in preschoolers. A total of 1284 children were selected from seven-kindergartens. Urinary concentrations of 23 metals were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Utilized least absolute shrinkage and selection operator penalized regression was used to select the metals independently associated with SVC. Generalized linear models were used to evaluate the association between urinary metals level and SVC. In the single-metal model, we observed negative associations between urinary aluminum, copper, zinc, rubidium, lead and SVC, comparing extreme quartiles the regression coefficients β (95% CI) were −41.01 (95% CI: −78.02, −4.01, P for trend = 0.029), −62.91 (95% CI: −99.85, −25.96, P for trend = 0.004), −33.48 (95% CI: −69.95, 3.00, P for trend = 0.042), −49.45 (95% CI: −86.10, −12.81, P for trend = 0.012) and −55.64 (95% CI: −91.88, −19.40, P for trend = 0.005), respectively. Urinary copper was negatively associated with SVC in boys, urinary zinc and lead were negatively associated with SVC in girls. Similar results were obtained in the multiple-metal model, the β for copper comparing extreme quartiles was −98.90 (-95% CI: −165.50, −32.29, P for trend = 0.006) in boys, the β for zinc and lead comparing extreme quartiles were −54.50 (95% CI: −107.60, −1.41, P for trend = 0.012), −84.32 (95% CI: −151.40, −17.24, P for trend = 0.016) in girls. The levels of urinary aluminum, copper, zinc, rubidium, lead were negatively associated with SVC in preschoolers. These associations were different between boys and girls. Further prospective and experimental studies are warranted to clarify the underlying mechanisms.

description: We review general characteristics of massive stars, present the main observable constraints that stellar models should reproduce. We discuss the impact of massive star nucleosynthesis on the early phases of the chemical evolution of the Milky Way (MW). We show that rotating models can account for the important primary nitrogen production needed at low metallicity. Interestingly such rotating models can also better account for other features as the variation with the metallicity of the C/O ratio. Damped Lyman Alpha (DLA) systems present similar characteristics as the halo of the MW for what concern the N/O and C/O ratios. Although in DLAs, the star formation history might be quite different from that of the halo, in these systems also, rotating stars (both massive and intermediate) probably play an important role for explaining these features. The production of primary nitrogen is accompanied by an overproduction of other elements as $^{13}$C, $^{22}$Ne and s-process elements. We show also how the observed variation with the metallicity of the number ratio of type Ibc to type II supernovae may be a consequence of the metallicity dependence of the line-driven stellar winds.

description: Background Aim of our prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized study was to identify characteristic features and similarities of patients with functional respiratory disorders regarding socio-familial and behavioral aspects, in comparison with controls in a cross-sectional analysis using standardized psychological questionnaires. Furthermore, we investigated the longitudinal outcome of symptoms, effects of primary interventions and the stability of psychological traits 6 months after diagnosis and primary intervention. Methods Initially, 106 patients (68 females, 27 males) and 58 controls (33 females, 25 males) were recruited for the study. Mean age was 12.6 years in patients and 11.9 years in controls. Results The child behavior checklist (CBCL) showed significantly increased scores for anxious/depressed (p = 0.002) and schizoid/obsessive (p = 0.001) behavior in patients. A trend was evident for internalizing behavior (p = 0.009) and for a higher total score (p = 0.008). In the self-assessment youth self-report (YSR), there was a trend towards higher values for anxious/depressed behavior in patients (p = 0.06) and towards more externalizing behavior (p = 0.029) in the control group. After 6 months, 31% of the patients were free of symptoms, 42% had improved. For themselves, parents reported a decreased burden from 56% to 23% (p < 0.001) and decreased impairment from 57% to 30% (p < 0.008). For their children, parents reported a decrease from 45% to 16% (p < 0.0001) and from 74% to 37% (p < 0.0001), respectively. A longitudinal comparison from T1 to T2 showed no statistically significant changes in all three psychological questionnaires (CBCL, YSR, and SOMS-KJ). Conclusions In summary, we show that patients with functional respiratory disorders differ from healthy subjects, with internalizing behavior being a characteristic trait. The outcome in terms of symptoms, perceived psycho-familial burden and impairment after 6 months is encouraging. However, we are aware that our preliminary data offer thought-provoking impulses rather than firm findings.

description: We present the results of a neutron scattering study of the high energy phonons in the superconducting graphite intercalation compound CaC$_6$. The study was designed to address hitherto unexplored aspects of the lattice dynamics in CaC$_6$, and in particular any renormalization of the out-of-plane and in-plane graphitic phonon modes. We present a detailed comparison between the data and the results of density functional theory (DFT). A description is given of the analysis methods developed to account for the highly-textured nature of the samples. The DFT calculations are shown to provide a good description of the general features of the experimental data. This is significant in light of a number of striking disagreements in the literature between other experiments and DFT on CaC$_6$. The results presented here demonstrate that the disagreements are not due to any large inaccuracies in the calculated phonon frequencies.

description: The correlated fermionic many-particle system, near infinite scattering length, reveals an underlying Heisenberg symmetry in one dimension, as compared to an $SO(2,1)$ symmetry in two dimensions. This facilitates an exact map from the interacting to the non-interacting system, both with and without a harmonic trap, and explains the short-distance scaling behavior of the wave-function. Taking advantage of the phenomenological Calogero-Sutherland-type interaction, motivated by the density functional approach, we connect the ground-state energy shift, to many-body correlation effect. For the excited states, modes at integral values of the harmonic frequency $ω$, are predicted in one dimension, in contrast to the breathing modes with frequency $2ω$ in two dimensions.

The generation of certain time expressions in English
Creators: name: Rodman, Lilita
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In this study a set of rules that generate certain time expressions in English is constructed. The methodology used is mainly that outlined by Noam Chomsky in Aspects of the Theory of Syntax (1965). The discussion is confined to those time expressions that are single words, single phrases, or sequences of phrases in surface structure. These have the basic deep structure Prep + Det + N (S'), where N has the syntactic feature [+ Time]. Surface structure single word time expressions are derived from this deep structure by deleting Prep and rewriting the NP as a single lexical item; surface structure sequences of phrases are derived by applying the relative clause transformation to the embedded S. Chomsky's list of syntactic features for nouns is extended by adding some inherent features and some selectional features. The additions are needed to distinguish nouns that can occur in time expressions from those that cannot, to state the collocation restrictions between some prepositions and determiners and the time nouns, and to state certain ordering restrictions on surface structure sequences of phrases. The time expressions considered are subcategorized into Locative Time and Duration Time on the basis of collocation with some subclasses of Verb. These subcategories are formally distinct in that their prepositions are mutually exclusive. Locative Time expressions are further sub-categorized into Dynamic Time expressions, those whose collocation restrictions with Auxiliary expansions are linguistically determinable, and Static Time expressions, those whose collocation restrictions are not linguistically determinable. These two subcategories are, again, formally distinct, for their determiners are mutually exclusive.

description: Persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) often show particular problems in seemingly simple routines despite relatively preserved cognitive function. We therefore investigated the processing of everyday events on behavioral and neurophysiological levels in a PD and control group. The participants had to indicate via button press whether three sequentially presented sub-events described a previously defined event (e.g., going grocery shopping). Sub-event sequences were either correct or included an event that did not belong to the event (content violation), or events were chronologically wrong (temporal violation). During task execution event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded. Generally, the PD group showed less accurate performance independently from task conditions, and reaction times to temporal violations were particularly slow compared to the control group. Regarding ERP results, the control group showed a right lateralized N400 effect in response to content violations, which was absent in the PD group indicating altered content event processing. Concerning the reanalysis of content event violations, the expression of late positive components (LPCs) was similar between both groups. Upon temporal violations, both groups also showed a LPC with a tendentially earlier onset in the PD group, resembling positive components indicative of novelty processing. Together, these findings suggest poor event prediction in PD, which may originate from weak event representation or retrieval and possibly relate to prevalent behavioral dysfunctions in everyday life in PD.

These transformations lead to new kernels for the Heun equation, given by single hypergeometric functions (Lambe-Ward-type kernels) and by products of two hypergeometric functions (Erdélyi-type). Such kernels, by a limiting process, also afford new kernels for the confluent Heun equation.

description: Hsu Chih-mo was an influential poet in China in 1920’s but his works have not been thoroughly studied either in or outside China. In this thesis the main features of Hsu's poetry are examined and attention is given to the influence he received from others and the impact of family life and social and political environment on his thoughts and works. His prose writings which supply valuable sources to the understanding of his poetry are often drawn upon. Chapter I (Background) provides some basic information about the poet's life and the Chinese social and political conditions in his days. Chapters II (Woman), III (Love), IV (Revolution) and V (Religion) may be regarded as what the poet has to say and Chapter VI (Diction) and VII (Imagery), the ways he says them. On account of the scope of this paper, prosody, which requires extensive studies in the case of Hsu, is not treated as a separate topic, and in the last chapter (Conclusion), a brief summation and appreciation is given with emphasis on the role played by Hsu as an ever sincere and zealous promoter and experimenter of modern Chinese poetry ("new" poetry).

description: Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas stemming mainly from nitrogen (N)‐fertilizer application. It is challenging to quantify N2O emissions from agroecosystems because of the dearth of measured data and high spatial variability of the emissions. The eco‐hydrological model SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) simulates hydrological processes and N fluxes in a catchment. However, the routine for simulating N2O emissions is still missing in the SWAT model. A submodule was developed based on the outputs of the SWAT model to partition N2O from the simulated nitrification by applying a coefficient (K2) and also to isolate N2O from the simulated denitrification (N2O + N2) with a modified semi‐empirical equation. The submodule was applied to quantify N2O emissions and N2O emission factors from selected crops in two agricultural catchments by using NH4NO3 fertilizer and the combination of organic N and NO3− fertilizer as N input data. The setup with the combination of organic N and NO3− fertilizer simulated lower N2O emissions than the setup with NH4NO3 fertilizer. When the water balance was simulated well (absolute percentage error <11%), the impact of N fertilizer application on the simulated N2O emissions was captured. More research to test the submodule with measured data is needed.

description: The two-body potential of systems with long-range interactions decays at large distances as $V(r)\sim 1/r^α$, with $α\leq d$, where $d$ is the space dimension. Examples are: gravitational systems, two-dimensional hydrodynamics, two-dimensional elasticity, charged and dipolar systems. Although such systems can be made extensive, they are intrinsically non additive. Moreover, the space of accessible macroscopic thermodynamic parameters might be non convex. The violation of these two basic properties is at the origin of ensemble inequivalence, which implies that specific heat can be negative in the microcanonical ensemble and temperature jumps can appear at microcanonical first order phase transitions. The lack of convexity implies that ergodicity may be generically broken. We present here a comprehensive review of the recent advances on the statistical mechanics and out-of-equilibrium dynamics of systems with long-range interactions. The core of the review consists in the detailed presentation of the concept of ensemble inequivalence, as exemplified by the exact solution, in the microcanonical and canonical ensembles, of mean-field type models. Relaxation towards thermodynamic equilibrium can be extremely slow and quasi-stationary states may be present. The understanding of such unusual relaxation process is obtained by the introduction of an appropriate kinetic theory based on the Vlasov equation.

Presenting higher stacks as simplicial schemes

description: We show that an n-geometric stack may be regarded as a special kind of simplicial scheme, namely a Duskin n-hypergroupoid in affine schemes, where surjectivity is defined in terms of covering maps, yielding Artin n-stacks, Deligne-Mumford n-stacks and n-schemes as the notion of covering varies. This formulation adapts to all HAG contexts, so in particular works for derived n-stacks (replacing rings with simplicial rings). We exploit this to describe quasi-coherent sheaves and complexes on these stacks, and to draw comparisons with Kontsevich's dg-schemes. As an application, we show how the cotangent complex controls infinitesimal deformations of higher and derived stacks.

The Self, the Grid and the Rhetoric

Subjects: Art text

description: This thesis outlines the various approaches, processes, and works that I used throughout an ongoing negotiation between my professional routine as an employee with the Government of British Columbia and my work as an artist. The process of negotiation is actualized within what scholar Michel de Certeau has termed ‘grids of control’ and makes use of tactics (as opposed to strategies) that are negotiated through a practiced based on walking, interactive installations, and text that aim to collate, destabilize and amplify everyday repetition and patterns. Within an artistic discourse where the context ―social, political or otherwise― is of primary concern, my practice neighbours that of artists including as Francis Alÿs, Barbara Kruger, Cathy Busby, and Jenny Holzer, who each deploy a variety of methods and tactics that disrupt social spaces and text- based rhetoric. Detailed in a series of chapters, the works Thread (2013), Walking Writing (2014), Doppelgänger (2013-14), Stalemate (2014), and You Just Never Quite Know (2015) are outlined as important exploratory steps towards the use of various tactics to create an idealized opposition, and a way to subvert control from the ‘disciplinary powers’ embedded in the patterns of everyday routine, and Speech from the Throne (2014) and (2015) as the cumulative works of this process and my graduate research.

description: We obtain the canonical and symmetrical Belinfante energy-momentum tensors of Dirac--Kähler's fields. It is shown that the traces of the energy-momentum tensors are not equal to zero. We find the canonical and Belinfante dilatation currents which are not conserved, but a new conserved dilatation current is obtained. It is pointed out that the conformal symmetry is broken. The canonical quantization is performed and the propagator of the massless fields in the first-order formalism is found.

An infinite class of extremal horizons in higher dimensions

description: We present a new class of near-horizon geometries which solve Einstein's vacuum equations, including a negative cosmological constant, in all even dimensions greater than four. Spatial sections of the horizon are inhomogeneous S^2-bundles over any compact Kaehler-Einstein manifold. For a given base, the solutions are parameterised by one continuous parameter (the angular momentum) and an integer which determines the topology of the horizon. In six dimensions the horizon topology is either S^2 x S^2 or CP^2 # -CP^2. In higher dimensions the S^2-bundles are always non-trivial, and for a fixed base, give an infinite number of distinct horizon topologies. Furthermore, depending on the choice of base we can get examples of near-horizon geometries with a single rotational symmetry (the minimal dimension for this is eight). All of our horizon geometries are consistent with all known topology and symmetry constraints for the horizons of asymptotically flat or globally Anti de Sitter extremal black holes.

Quantum Goos-Hanchen effect in graphene

description: The Goos-Hanchen (GH) effect is an interference effect on total internal reflection at an interface, resulting in a shift sigma of the reflected beam along the interface. We show that the GH effect at a p-n interface in graphene depends on the pseudospin (sublattice) degree of freedom of the massless Dirac fermions, and find a sign change of sigma at angle of incidence alpha*=arcsin[sin alpha_c]^1/2 determined by the critical angle alpha_c for total reflection. In an n-doped channel with p-doped boundaries the GH effect doubles the degeneracy of the lowest propagating mode, introducing a two-fold degeneracy on top of the usual spin and valley degeneracies. This can be observed as a stepwise increase by 8e^2/h of the conductance with increasing channel width.

description: Dear humans, you cannot see me with naked eyes,1 and yet you can no longer ignore my existence (Figure 1). My official title is long: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome‐Coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). I am also known as nCoV, the 2019 Novel Coronavirus, or simply Corona. In early December 2019, I was making the usual rounds in a Wuhan food market in Hubei province in China. The market was thick with humans and nonhumans in proximity. I attached myself to a tiny droplet slipping inside ‘patient zero’, who sneezed, coughed, suffered from high temperature and breathing difficulty, and recovered after two weeks. ‘Patient zero’ thought I was an ordinary virus that caused the endemic, seasonal flu. It was not until I had multiplied in hundreds and thousands, and an unusually high number of pneumonia cases had been reported, that the global health authorities took notice (Heymann and Shindo 2020).

The propagation of uncertainty shocks: Rotemberg versus Calvo
Creators: name: Oh, Joonseok
Publisher: name: Freie Universität Berlin
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: economic activity
subject: uncertainty shocks
subject: inflation
subject: 300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::330 Wirtschaft

description: This article studies the effects of uncertainty shocks on economic activity, focusing on inflation. Using a vector autoregression, I show that increased uncertainty has negative demand effects, reducing GDP and prices. I then consider standard New Keynesian models with Rotemberg‐type and Calvo‐type price rigidities. Despite the belief that the two schemes are equivalent, I show that they generate different dynamics in response to uncertainty shocks. In the Rotemberg model, uncertainty shocks decrease output and inflation, in line with the empirical results. By contrast, in the Calvo model, uncertainty shocks decrease output but raise inflation because of firms' precautionary pricing motive.
title: Idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome is more often suspected than diagnosed—A prospective real‐life study

description: Background Idiopathic mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) is characterized by three diagnostic criteria: (1) episodic mast cell (MC)-driven signs/symptoms of at least two organ systems in the absence of clonal MC expansion and definite triggers, (2) episodic increase in tryptase, and (3) response to MC-targeted treatment. Many patients believe they have MCAS, but how often this is the case remains unknown. Methods We prospectively investigated patients with suspected MCAS (n = 100) for the diagnostic criteria including baseline tryptase, KIT D816V mutation, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) over the course of 12 weeks. Comorbid depression and anxiety were explored with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results In 53% of our patients (80% females), suspicion of MCAS was based on self-evaluation. In total, patients reported 87 different symptoms, mostly fatigue (n = 57), musculoskeletal pain/weakness (n = 49), and abdominal pain (n = 43), with overall high disease activity and impact. Two of 79 patients had increased tryptase (by >20% +2 ng/ml) following an episode. Only 5%, with any of the PROMs used, showed complete response to MC-targeted treatment. Depression and anxiety disorders were frequent comorbidities (n = 23 each), and 65 patients had pathological HADS values, which were linked to high disease impact and poor symptom control. Conclusion Mast cell activation syndrome was confirmed in only 2% of patients, which implies that it is not MC activation that drives signs and symptoms in most patients with suspected MCAS. There is a high need for comprehensive research efforts aimed at the identification of the true underlying pathomechanism(s) in patients with suspected MCAS.

description: This thesis essay is an account of an auto-ethnographic research about how personal identity is formed, performed and represented. Its structure is experimental and it uses various and overlapping discursive strategies to engage the reader. It is informed by affect, queer and feminist theory, especially the writings of Judith Jack Halberstam on failure. It also draws from conceptions of identity encountered in postcolonial theory, critical pedagogy, girl studies and fat studies. I look into my working method through an examination of material and immaterial works. Playful artistic gestures, improvisation and messy installations are envisioned as acts of casual rebellion, or transgressive ways of making that deliberately register my work outside of the mainstream. I introduce several recent projects and contextualize them by means of storytelling. I also address my interest in attraction and repulsion, personal history and hierarchies of value.
