The film ”We will meet in the blind spot” takes its point of departure from the architecture in and around the Esposizione Universale di Roma (EUR) area in Rome. The EUR was built during the fascist rule and was meant to be the site of the World Exposition in 1942, in addition to being a celebration of the 20-year jubilee for fascism in Italy. The World Exposition in 1942 never took place due to W

Climate change mitigation efforts require information on the current greenhouse gas atmospheric concentrations and their sources and sinks. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most abundant anthropogenic greenhouse gas. Its variability in the atmosphere is modulated by the synergy between weather and CO2 surface fluxes, often referred to as CO2 weather. It is interpreted with the help of global or regiona

The montage film The Dissonance of Memory (Chapter IV) takes its point of departure in the multilayered narratives surrounding the areas of Gellerup and Toveshøj outside Aarhus in Denmark. Tracing the waves of change, progress and re-design of the area – from the never realized original plans till todays Helhedsplan (grand masterplan) – through a re-contextualisation of material from the local arc

Hymns to Unknown Heroines part III – Elna, 2015 Slide and sound installationHymns to Unknown Heroines, part III is the latest iteration of a multifaceted work. The starting point was an anonymous photographic archive from the 1920s that depicts a Scottish family over several years. Many of the photographs portray women engaged in recreational activities, portraying an undemanding lifestyle that ca

Bifurcating Futures, 2014HD video, 9:46 min.Through the staging of an experienced dancer, the video work Bifurcating Futures explores the body’s limitations and potentials in relation to modernist and futuristic architecture in the Esposizione Universale di Roma (EUR) district of Rome. The dancer’s movements are ruptured by fragments from Thom Donovan’s poem “The Commons.”In the video, the dancer

Hymns to Unknown Heroines, part II, 2014Found photographs, inkjet prints, vintage objects, list of countries and years women gained full voting rights, archive material, Six newly produced banners, and re-print of Frigga Carlbergs publicationsHymns to unknown heroines is based on an anonymous photographic archive from the 1920s that depicts a Scottish family over several years. Many of the photogr

The theoretical debate on the nature of narrative has been mainly concerned with literary narratives, whereas forms of non-literary and especially pictorial narrativity have been somewhat neglected. In this paper, however, I shall discuss narrativity specifically with regard to pictorial objects in order to clarify how pictorial storytelling may be based on the activation of mentally stored action

Den pågående klimatförändringen påverkar redan jordens arter och ekosystem på land, i sjöar, vid kusterna och i haven. Den påverkar enskilda arters utbredning och beteende, vilket i sin tur leder till förändringar i den biologiska mångfalden. Även om andra hot mot den biologiska mångfalden hittills dominerat, kommer effekterna på arter och ekosystem att öka med tilltagande klimatförändring med svå

Fundmental comprehension of light-induced processes in perovskites are still scarce. One active debate surrounds the influence of excess lead iodide (PbI2) on device performance, as well as optoelectronic properties, where both beneficial and detrimental traits have been reported. Here, we study its impact on charge carrier recombination kinetics by simultaneously acquiring the photoluminescence q

Partiklar i atmosfären – aerosoler – har en avkylande effekt på jordens klimat. Aerosolernas sammanlagda effekt bedöms i IPCCs femte stora rapport, AR5, som något mindre än vad som rapporterades i 2007 i AR4. Partiklars avkylande effekt har troligen i viss mån motverkat växthusgasutsläppens uppvärmande påverkan. Vi kan dock inte förlita oss på sådan draghjälp i klimatarbetet. Internationella övere

Background: Anoxic brain injury is the primary cause of death after resuscitation from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and prognostication is challenging. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of two fragments of tau as serum biomarkers for neurological outcome. Methods: Single-center sub-study of 171 patients included in the Target Temperature Management (TTM) Trial randomly a

This technical report describes JitterTime, a Matlab toolbox for calculating the time-varying state covariance of a mixed continuous/discrete linear system driven by white noise. It also integrates a quadratic cost function for the system. The passing of time and the updating of the discrete-time systems are explicitly managed by the user in a simulation run. Since the timing is completely handled

We theorize that three distinct structures of democratic constraint explain why more democratic dyads do not engage in military conflict with each other. We build on earlier theories that focused on electoral and horizontal accountability. We add a new dimension—the social accountability provided by an active civil society. Using several new measures from the Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) data se

On-going debates within feminist and social science research are increasingly highlighting the need for reflexive scholarship (particularly within qualitative research) – both in terms of considering the emotionality of the research process (Brownlie 2014, Burkitt 2012, Doucet 2008, Holland 2005, Mauthner and Doucet 2003) and in terms of applying an intersectional lens and discussing researchers’
