Anchoring Rural/Urban Aesthetics: A Sense of Place in the Nick Drake film A S...
Tina's talk looks at the filmic elements that are used in A Skin Too Few in order to situate the viewer within a particular aesthetic. After the showing of the film, Tina demonstrates how a sense of place is created in order to deliver particular messages that often support the dialogue, but sometimes add something else to it that might not be apparent on a cursory viewing. These anchors are tools used to situate the viewer, add to the story and as transitional objects which move the story forward in time and space.
Task1A - History of Documentaries
Eadweard Muybridge was an English photographer who created one of the earliest motion picture experiments called Movies Begin: Vol. I: Motion Studies between 1877-1885 in the UK. Using his invention called the zoöpraxiscope, he took sequential photographs of horses in motion and projected the images to give the illusion of motion, which was one of the first uses of stop-motion photography.
Engaging augmented reality experiences
1) The document discusses using augmented reality to create social events and experiences for large groups of people.
2) It proposes experiences like an augmented reality art exhibition with 20,000 participants or an outdoor cinema with virtual decors.
3) The goal is to overcome the invisibility of individual augmented reality experiences and use AR to connect people through shared augmented experiences.
Brambilla-TimesSquare-Final-190215
Marco Brambilla's art installation "Apollo 18" will be displayed nightly from 11:57 pm to midnight in Times Square, NYC from March 1-31, 2015. The installation uses archival NASA footage and computer graphics to recreate the countdown and imagined launch of a Saturn V rocket, compressing the entire fictional mission into the few minutes before midnight each night. By transforming Times Square into a virtual launch site through dozens of electronic billboards, the installation aims to recapture the optimism and spectacle of manned space exploration during the Apollo era in a communal public event in the heart of New York City.

Task1 a history of documentaries
Eadweard Muybridge was an English photographer who created one of the earliest motion picture films between 1877-1885 called Movies Begin: Vol. I: Motion Studies. Using his zoöpraxiscope device, he took sequential photographs of horses in motion to study animal locomotion, which are considered some of the first motion studies and a precursor to modern motion pictures. The documentary details Muybridge's pioneering work capturing motion through sequential photography and his zoöpraxiscope device for projecting animated images.

Nfib ny minimum wage study - 2012
This document analyzes the potential economic impact of a proposed bill (S6413) in New York that would increase the minimum wage. It finds that depending on future inflation rates, the bill could result in nearly 22,000 lost jobs in New York over 10 years and a $2.5 billion reduction in economic output. More than 70% of lost jobs would be in small businesses. The analysis models different inflation scenarios and estimates costs to employers, as well as potential secondary effects on near-minimum wage workers.
Poetics of the Body: The Body at Work
The document discusses the changing nature of labor and the body over different historical periods:
1. In the Ancient World, all work was seen as ignoble.
2. In the Feudal World, work followed the rhythms of the seasons and people alternated between periods of rest and idleness.
3. The Industrial Revolution commodified labor and led to specialization of tasks, increasing productivity but also subjecting the body to the rhythms of the machine. This trend continued with mechanization of agriculture and manufacturing.

Materials (Krems)
This document discusses the environmental and human impacts of extracting and processing materials for electronics production. It notes that extracting a single batch of computer chips requires large amounts of toxic chemicals and produces hazardous waste. E-waste recycling in developing countries like Nigeria and Lagos exposes people to toxic dust and materials. Semiconductor manufacturing produces air and water pollution, and workers have experienced health issues like cancer clusters. Effective regulation and enforcement of environmental standards is still lacking in some areas.
Colour (Krems)
The document discusses the biology and neuroscience of human color perception. It begins by explaining that color is the optical effect of specific wavelengths of light between 400-800 nanometers interacting with photoreceptor cells in the retina. It describes the three types of cone cells in the retina that are sensitive to different wavelengths and correspond to our perception of colors like red, green, and blue. The signal from these photoreceptors passes through intervening neural layers and the optic nerve to areas of the brain's cortex where color perception occurs through complex neural processing and connections between brain cells.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
