In a pioneering step towards sustainable offshore wind energy, the BOEM Environmental Studies Program collaborated with the BOEM Office of Renewable Energy Programs on the study: 'Evaluating Effectiveness of Nature Inclusive Design Materials (AT-22-09).'
This project tests innovative materials for cable and scour protection, which are used to safeguard installations and foster marine growth and enhance fish habitats. Aimed at mitigating the environmental impact of offshore wind farms, this study is integral in determining the balance between energy development and marine ecosystem preservation.

Macabrillas: material de acarreo
Las macabrillas son un término popular en Granada que designa las lápidas funerarias islámicas —o estelas de época andalusí— empleadas originalmente para señalar las tumbas en los cementerios musulmanes. Estas piezas, con frecuencia decoradas con inscripciones en lengua árabe realizadas por artesanos andalusíes (coránicas, profilácticas o alusivas al difunto) y con motivos geométricos, constituían originalmente marcadores de tumbas en los cementerios musulmanes.
Uso y reutilización en la arquitectura
Tras la conquista castellana y la posterior expulsión de la población morisca, muchos de estos elementos funerarios fueron reutilizados como material de construcción en edificaciones cristianas, tanto civiles como religiosas. Esta práctica respondía a la abundancia de estas piedras ya talladas y al propósito político y simbólico de borrar la presencia material de la cultura islámica precedente.
En Granada, las macabrillas aparecen dispersas por toda la ciudad, a menudo empotradas en muros de edificios posteriores e incluso integradas en retablos. Su uso secundario ha provocado un notable deterioro: muchas han perdido parte de su decoración original debido a la erosión, la intemperie y la manipulación constructiva.
Ejemplos en la arquitectura de Granada
Se pueden observar macabrillas en diversos puntos de la ciudad, entre ellos:
La Alhambra: Son visibles en distintos tramos de la muralla, especialmente en las inmediaciones de la Puerta de la Justicia.
Convento de la Encarnación: En la actual Plaza de la Encarnación se han identificado varias macabrillas reutilizadas en sus muros, posiblemente procedentes del antiguo cementerio de Puerta de Elvira (Bab al‑Hadid).
Iglesia de San Cristóbal: En uno de sus laterales se conservan fragmentos de tumbas islámicas empleados como material constructivo.
Convento de las Carmelitas: En el callejón de Rodrigo del Campo (acceso desde Plaza Nueva) también pueden verse macabrillas integradas en la fábrica del edificio.
Castillo de Mondújar (Valle de Lecrín): Se han hallado fragmentos de macabrillas y losas funerarias con decoración geométrica reutilizadas durante una reforma castellana hacia 1500. Se ha planteado la hipótesis de que procedan del cementerio real (Rawda) nazarí que Boabdil trasladó desde la Alhambra a Mondújar.
La presencia de macabrillas en la arquitectura granadina constituye un testimonio elocuente de la superposición de culturas, del intento de una sociedad por relegar a la anterior y de la continua reutilización de materiales constructivos a lo largo de la historia urbana de Granada.

this was a little experiment with a red material on a mirror and the light shining through orange-yellow curtains onto it...
looking at beautiful materials i have or come across
not sure what ill do with them or the pictures just yet
any suggestions?
There's nothing more engaging than unstaged natural photos of children.

Dr Shelley James trained in textiles and printmaking before completing a PhD by practice in the Ceramics and Glass Department at the Royal College of Art. Her practice combines traditional approaches with the development of new techniques to explore the creative potential of glass. Shelley has an ongoing residency at the Bristol Eye Hospital and has recently completed the prestigious Jerwood Commission in collaboration with psychologists and crystallographers to explore perception of space and symmetry. She is currently developing a new body of work with the mathematician Sir Roger Penrose on quasi-crystals for exhibition at the Royal Society Summer Exhibition 2015.
In this masterclass participants were invited to attack everyday objects and a vast range of glass with heat, hammers and acid to test the limits of the vast range of materials that go by the name of glass.
