Was ist künstliche Intelligenz? Und was wissen wir eigentlich über die menschliche Intelligenz? Wie intelligent kann künstliche Intelligenz im Vergleich dazu sein? Wichtiger noch: Welche Auswirkungen werden die Fortschritte in diesem Bereich auf unsere Gesellschaft haben? Antorten auf diese und viele weitere Fragen gibt die Ausstllung Understanding AI im Ars Electronica Center.

Understanding how materials behave, degrade and relate to each other is a fundamental part of the research that takes place at TWI, and factors into much of the work we conduct for our Members.
Whether it’s identifying what caused a component to fail, developing hydrophobic coatings for anti-graffiti applications, or identifying the optimum material for a niche application, our materials scientists have the depth of knowledge to develop solutions to all manner of materials-related problems, without compromising on safety or quality.
TWI Members benefit from our unrivalled breadth of understanding and versatility of capability: with laboratories able to examine the microscopic, and specialised testing rigs able to investigate the massive, we can take on projects of any size.

Based on the information collected during my ethnographic work focusing my attention on the everyday understandings of dengue fever, and paying particular attention to the different ways in which the subjects that have had dengue described the experience of being unwell, I decided to re-work (collaboratively) all the information gathered so far, to create elements that reflect the ideas of how dengue fever is understood in various different contexts.
Promoters of public health have not taken into consideration the points of view of the patients or those who have had the disease. They design campaigns based on an entomological and clinical point of view, following a standard template where you see health staff –dressed in laboratory coats– talking about environmental hygiene and the purposes of sanitation. In addition, humour doesn’t play a role in the design of the campaigns.
In order to collaboratively create an intervention that reproduces the way Luis Fernando and Sara experienced the disease (you can find information about the ways in which they described the experience of being unwell by accessing my PhD blog: www.anthropologyartscience.blogspot.com), we asked Alejandro Uribe, Sarita Álvarez and Juan Camilo Ortega for their help. They are part of Bimana, a collective of artist that creates a variety of large-scale interventions and performances combining a solar balloon, plastic bags, kites, makeup, prosthetics design, and special effects. The idea was to create a fictional character, or a comic anti-hero, that would appear in the public space of the city, creating an active dialogue with different peoples.
Acknowledgments:
I am extremely grateful with the subjects of this ethnography Sara and Luis Fernando. Special thanks to the ‘Bimana Producciones’ team (Alejandro Uribe, Sarita Álvarez and Juan Camilo Ortega), the kite-flyer Andrés Ramírez and the actor Emilio Arango. I would also like to thank the rest of the people that helped during the public experiment: Pablo López, Lucía Tobón, Sara Ibarram, Susana Valencia, Hernán Marín, Mario Valencia, and Gustavo Ramírez.

Cultural relativism is the understanding that a person’s behaviors and activities should be interpreted in the context of their own culture. We rely heavily on this principle to understand user groups in order to design digital systems for them. Our current models for understanding and quantifying cultural relativism are on the international scale; we see Americans as a group distinct from Japanese, who are again distinct from British. However, this may not be enough. The current socio-political climate in America demonstrates that the cultural influences even within a nation might be misunderstood. This talk will explore some of the current frameworks we have to understand culture, and propose ways to better work them into our design practices.

ADDA DADA in PARIS...there is SO much to see and DO...OVERHEARD: AMERICANS IN PARIS " I bought a full box of PIERRE HERME macaroons for a dinner party. I could not resist. Please, I need four replacement macaroons for the ones I ate this afternoon! ", said Elena Bravo to the understanding PIERRE HERME clerk.
PIERRE HERME is a new comer to the MACAROON WARS of PARIS. Their macaroons are extremely tasty and absolutely beautiful. they are a top contender for the FIRST PLACE along with another new macaroon pastry shop: CHRISTOPHE ROUSSEL who hails from the south of France and is making his mark with incredible unique flavors.
CHRISTOPHE ROUSSEL has a first, and it is the most outstanding new macaroon:::the chocolate covered chocolate macaroon: Sure to win laurels as the MOST UNIQUE MACAROON in the PARIS MACAROON WARS OF 2011!
So, is Fauchon and Laduree in the THREE STAR CATEGORY?
Bizarrely, YES
I went for another round of the Macaroon Wars and found FAUCHON and LADUREE to both be wanning today of the wallop of gourmet chocolate taste. Granted both are highly desirable in many circles. Both are high end gourmet fashion houses. Both are uniquely designed with signature decor and highly prized locations. Both are so-so compared to the two new upstarts and an old competitor.
The upset is ANGELINA on the rue Rivoli across from the jardins du tullieries. It really kicked the two top well known macaroon producers out of the competition! !
ANGELINA produced a mac with a lovely color and chocolate taste that lingered delicately on one's palate.
Two top contenders have falling stars ( Fauchon & Laduree ).
An old institution moves in ( ANGELINA).
Two newer macaroon shops shine and sparkle ( Pierre HERME and Christophe ROUSSEL ).
And one big producer steps up to the palate ( Eric KAISER ).
The Paris Macaroon Wars are ON!
Wow. Never did I expect the two top tourist and chi-chi Paris macaroon haunts to be only THREE STARS instead of a four or five.
The Macaroon Wars continue onward to new heights, and surprisingly, new lows.
How I wish I knew the Buddhist mythological stories.. Would help immensely in interpreting these astounding paintings that fill color and life to Ladakh's monasteries.
What is going on in this picture ? Help anyone ? C'mon, all you Ladakh regulars on flickr - help. :)
The inaugural Adnams Supplier Conference. Thursday 23rd June 2016 at The Enterprise Center at the UEA, Norwich.
On 9 July 2019, Imbuto Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China, renewing their commitment to sponsor around 100 students under our Edified Generation programme.
This scholarship programme was initiated in 2003 to financially support secondary school students from economically vulnerable backgrounds, in their pursuit of education.
This event brought together a panel of three leading economists—Thomas Piketty, Kevin Murphy, and Steven Durlauf—to discuss the sources of the rise in inequality in advanced industrialized countries over the past 40 years, the problems it poses, and effective responses. Nobel laureate James Heckman moderated the panel and guided the discussion.
This event was cosponsored by the Becker Friedman Institute, the Harris School of Public Policy, the Human Capital and Economic Opportunity Global Working Group, and the Center for the Economics of Human Development.

★What IS THE INTERNATIONAL FIBER COLLABORATIVE?
As the leading voice for collaborative public art projects around the world, the International Fiber Collaborative is dedicated to promoting understanding and appreciation of contemporary art & craft through educational experiences. We are committed to developing vital education programs that elevate, expand, modernize and enhance the image of collaboration and education today.
★WHAT IS THE DREAM ROCKET PROJECT?
The Dream Rocket Team is collecting nearly 8,000 artworks from participants around the globe. The artwork will be assembled together to create a massive cover in which will wrap a 37 story Saturn V Moon Rocket at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. We will also be displaying submitted artwork in dozens of national venues prior to the wrapping of the Saturn V. Additionally, we are posting images of submitted artwork & their stories on our Website, Flickr, and Facebook.The Dream Rocket project uses the Saturn V Moon Rocket as a symbolism of universal values of the human spirit. Optimism, hope,
caring for our natural resources, scientific exploration, and harnessing technological advancements for a better quality of life while safeguarding our communities, are all common desires across national and international boundaries. Participants are able to express and learn about these values through this creative collaboration. With the completion of each artwork, participants are asked to write an essay explaining their artwork, and the dream theme in which they chose.
★How can I Participate & Have my Artwork Displayed?
The Dream Rocket project would like to challenge you to ‘Dare to Dream’. To dream about your future and the future of our world through dream themes such as health, community, conservation, science, technology, space, peace, and so on. We would like you to use your selected Dream Theme to express, explore, and create your vision on your section of the wrap. We hope that you are able to express and learn through this creative collaboration. With the completion of each artwork, you are asked to write a brief essay explaining your artwork, and the dream theme in which you chose.
“The Saturn V is the ideal icon to represent a big dream. This rocket was designed and built as a collaboration of nearly half-a-million people and allowed our human species to venture beyond our world and stand on ANOTHER - SURELY one of the biggest dreams of all time. ENABLING THE DREAMS of young people to touch this mighty rocket sends a powerful message in conjunction with creating an educational curriculum to engage students to embrace the power of learning through many important subjects”
-Neil deGrasse Tyson, Director of the Hayden Planetarium, New York

I shot a wedding last month and the groom's father was a well-weathered, hard-fought man. I took numerous photos of him.
At the end of it he heartily copmlimented me, my demeanor and focus. He said, especially, that I shot the whole thing in a black suit in 80 degree weather was not so freuently seen these days.
You can say I liked him.
Sharee Tso shows West Lake Jr. High School students a piece of uncarded wool.
Sharee Tso, a member of the Utah State Board of Education Coalition of Minorities Advisory Committee, delivered a presentation on her Navajo culture at West Lake Jr. High School (Granite School District) on Friday, November 18, 2011. November is Native American Heritage Month and West Lake Social Studies teacher Brenda Monson says she invited Tso to deliver the presentation so her students can have a better understanding of modern day American Indians and to honor students who share this cultural heratage. Tso shared experiences from her life growing up on the Navajo reservation, aspects of Navajo culture like using stars to follow seasons and she demonstrated traditional methods for grinding corn and carding and spinning wool. As an appointed member of CMAC, Tso helps advise and monitor the Utah State Board of Education on issues relating to the education of ethnic minority students in Utah.
