Mossor och levermossor är vanliga i skogar, våtmarker och på klippor – men deras kemiska innehåll är fortfarande relativt lite utforskat. Nu undersöker ett europeiskt forskningsprojekt om dessa små växter kan bli en källa till nya bioaktiva ämnen för exempelvis kosmetika och läkemedel. Projektet BRYOMOLECULES har nu nått halvvägs. Vid Lunds universitet deltar professor Nils Cronberg och doktorande

The exhibition “Coded Threads” traces threads from the origin of the digital, the woven fabric, into today’s and tomorrow’s digital realities. The loom is the basis of binary coding: the thread can go over or under the warp, be a one or a zero. The thread is coded and acquires meaning – becomes an image, a pattern, a calculation, an algorithm. Everything can become data through the thread in the w
