Weavers

This original proposal by the artist and filmmaker Rosa Barba is deployed in two spaces of the art center. In the nave, she conceives an in situ project, in connection with the research carried out during her recent residency at the Atelier Calder, located in Saché. The second part of the exhibition takes place in the black gallery and immerses us in a cinematographic space mixing images and sculp

Pillage of the Sea : permanent sculpture in the sea

In Ostend, Rosa Barba presents Pillage of the Sea, 2021, a permanent sculpture. Barba has anchored an outsized cairn on the beach, imitating stones by pouring concrete in textile. The textile makes one think of the form of sandbags, with which Barba creates a type of imaginary barrier against the future rise in the sea level. Each stone symbolizes a city, the fate of which is threatened by climate

Klimatanpassning av vägar i strandnära områden

I den här rapporten ges en sammanfattning av en del av resultaten och metoderna från projektet Klimatanpassning av väg och järnväg i strandnära områden. Projektet har finansierats av Trafikverket och syftar till att studera klimatrisker för kustnära vägar med avseende på översvämnings- och erosionsprocesser, samt hur den riskutsatta infrastrukturen kan skyddas genom hållbara och naturanpassade met

Structural characterization of an extracellular contractile injection system from Photorhabdus luminescens in extended and contracted states.

Contractile injection systems (CISs) are phage-tail-like nanosyringes that mediate bacterial interactions by puncturing target cell membranes. Within these systems, Photorhabdus Virulence Cassettes (PVCs) can translocate toxins across eukaryotic target cell membranes. The structure of a PVC has been described at atomic level and engineered to deliver diverse protein cargoes into non-natively-targe

Adult Hip Dysplasia - Prevalence and Consequence

Background: Adult hip dysplasia is one of the few potentially modifiable risk factors for hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, the prevalence of hip dysplasia and the strength of its association with OA are not fullyunderstood.Aims and methods:I. To determine the prevalence of hip dysplasia in a Swedish population and investigate whether the condition was mentioned in radiology reports. The center ed

Tolkning av upphandlade avtal

Avtal kan innehålla otydligheter som gör att det blir nödvändigt med en tolkning. De kan också vara ofullständiga på ett sätt som gör att de måste fyllas ut med lagbestämmelser. Det här gäller givetvis även avtal som slutits efter att beslut om kontraktstilldelning fattats efter en genomförd offentlig upphandling. Varken upphandlingsdirektiven eller den svenska lagstiftningen tar ställning i fråga

Platting

The works, which consist of wooden planks mounted on steel supports, at first look deceptively like found objects, like standard industrial pallets. Upon closer study they are obviously handcrafted, not manufactured. Fredrik Værslev’s Garden Paintings first appeared in 2011. The planks themselves may be industrially made, but they are mounted manually and subjected to a variety of painterly techni

Magnetorientering hos fåglar och andra djur

The physics of the geomagnetic field is introduced, plausible mechanisms of magnetoreception are mentioned and observations and findings concerning magnetic field orientation in different organisms are presented. -from English summary

MONOCHROMES : based on an idea by FREDRIK VÆRSLEV

The return of monochrome painting - why it’s back, and where to see it in Berlin.The exhibition consists of ten more or less monochromatic paintings from the past four decades, including works by John M Armleder, Tauba Auerbach, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Matias Faldbakken, Isa Genzken, Allison Katz, Michael Krebber, Olivier Mosset, Charlotte Posenenske and Josh Smith. Organized and curated by Fredrik

La Renne

The exhibition is the fruit of a discussion that begun in 2015 with Etienne Bernard, director of the Frac Bretagne and curator of the exhibition, is intended to be an important step in his career.It will constitute a form of retrospective of Værslevs entire production over the past 15 years. The artist will present a new series that will serve as a “re-reading rail” for his older series. Thus, the

Louise Lawler / Fredrik Værslev

Indipendenza Roma is proud to present Louise Lawler / Fredrik Værslev, a two-person exhibition that responds directly to our unique spaces to explore the tension between an artwork and its surrounding architectural context, spurring questions of taste, value, function, and decoration.

Effectiveness analysis and value incommensurability

This paper argues that in many contexts where effectiveness analysis such as benefit-cost analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis is used, we have good reason to think that some benefits or costs are incommensurable invalue such that neither can be determined to be better than the other, although they cannot be determined to beequally good either. Two responses to such value incommensurability ar

Tool wear and tool protection in metal cutting : in-process interaction between workpiece, tool, and environment

Om sakerna på ditt skrivbord inte har tillverkats genom skärande bearbetning, så har definitivt verktyget som användes för att tillverka dem gjort det. Skärande bearbetning har en stor men ganska dold inverkan på ditt liv. Då den enda skärande bearbetning du kanske har upplevt är att göra en ljusstake i träslöjden i grundskolan. Svarvningen och fräsningen i denna avhandling rör ej ljusstakar i träIn an era where 3D printing and AI are at the forefront, turning, milling, and metal cutting might seem like niche research topics from the past. But metal cutting is all around you. If what you have lying on your desk was not machined, then the tools used to create it certainly were. Even 3D-printed or additively manufactured parts must be machined if a good surface quality is needed for an indus

Emission of biogenic volatile organic compounds from intact & clearcut boreal forest : Multi-year observations of BVOC fluxes at a Swedish boreal forest and the ecosystem-scale BVOC impacts of clearcut forestry

Vegetation is the major source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere, which affect both air quality and climate. Long-term ecosystem-level data on biogenic VOC (BVOC) emissions, however, are limited. This is especially true regarding the impacts of landscape-scale disturbances like clear-cutting on the short-term and longer seasonal-scale emissions of boreal forests, particularly

The cerebellar deep nuclei: a patch for rate codes?

Neural firing rates are thought to represent values which code information. There are drawbacks with using biophysical events to represent numbers. (1) Rate code (like any sequence) is inherently slow to read. (2) At short intervals, the code becomes unintelligible biophysical noise. (3) Transmission times. The vital contribution of the cerebellum to skilled execution and coordination of movements
