This presentation contains summaries and analyses of media created for a pop music album and single, including a magazine advert, album front and back covers, and a single cover. The magazine advert uses colors and styling from the 1980s to portray the artist. The album front cover has a plain white background to make the bright image stand out like a drawing. The back cover shows the artist laughing to convey the album's positive message. The single cover depicts slight sadness through the use of a mirror and lipstick writing, reflecting the song's lyrics and telling a story to encourage single sales.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Essentials of Automations: Optimizing FME Workflows with ParametersSafe Software
Are you looking to streamline your workflows and boost your projects’ efficiency? Do you find yourself searching for ways to add flexibility and control over your FME workflows? If so, you’re in the right place.
Join us for an insightful dive into the world of FME parameters, a critical element in optimizing workflow efficiency. This webinar marks the beginning of our three-part “Essentials of Automation” series. This first webinar is designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to utilize parameters effectively: enhancing the flexibility, maintainability, and user control of your FME projects.
Here’s what you’ll gain:
- Essentials of FME Parameters: Understand the pivotal role of parameters, including Reader/Writer, Transformer, User, and FME Flow categories. Discover how they are the key to unlocking automation and optimization within your workflows.
- Practical Applications in FME Form: Delve into key user parameter types including choice, connections, and file URLs. Allow users to control how a workflow runs, making your workflows more reusable. Learn to import values and deliver the best user experience for your workflows while enhancing accuracy.
- Optimization Strategies in FME Flow: Explore the creation and strategic deployment of parameters in FME Flow, including the use of deployment and geometry parameters, to maximize workflow efficiency.
- Pro Tips for Success: Gain insights on parameterizing connections and leveraging new features like Conditional Visibility for clarity and simplicity.
We’ll wrap up with a glimpse into future webinars, followed by a Q&A session to address your specific questions surrounding this topic.

2. Details
This presentation contains an Album Cover:
FRONT AND BACK, a Single Cover and finally a
magazine advert of the album.
All editing and photography I had produced by
myself using my Nikon D3000 camera and
Macromedia Fireworks Software (editing). My
music theme is pop and the appearance of all
my designs are unique and creative, as I
wanting my work to stand out in a positive
way.
4. Magazine Advert- Analysis
For the image of my magazine advert I wanted to give a ‘house
wife’ look dated around the 1980’s , I thought this look was
unique and I knew I could develop it in many ways. To help
the effect I used colour consistency with the hair curlers and
the outfit which were both yellow and then bright pink nails
matching the pink banner along the bottom of the advert and
also the stage name, Alia Stone and then finally the colour
green around the ‘out now’ font consisted with the green
curlers in the models hair and also the preview of the album
cover in the bottom left of the advert. The background of the
main image was brown however the spotlight I used
developed the wall colour to a pink tint, this is a very light
colour that didn’t stand out which helped all the other
features on the advert to stay in centre of attention.
6. Album Cover: FRONT- Analysis
The theme of the album cover is, pop art, it was
created on Macromedia Fireworks. I think the
front cover works well as it is quite plain with
the white background, however the image is
very bright and effective which makes the
appearance look so good. The effect makes
the image look more like a drawing rather
than a photo.
8. Album Cover: BACK- Analysis
The back of the album cover shows a more
natural emotion expressing laughter and joy,
which reflects the contents of the CD to be
positive, which would encourage bigger
audience to buy the album.
10. Single Cover- Analysis
The front of the Single Cover is completely different to the
Album cover and the magazine advert. Throughout my
research I discovered that many pop artists use a completely
different theme for the image they will use on there single.
The image I used shows slight sadness and a story, which
reflects the lyrics of the song I will use for the music video
‘picking up the pieces’ the effects I used on the image were
mainly writing the song title on the mirror using lipstick, I
thought the idea was unique and also the use of mirrors was
very different. The scenery of the image tells a story, which
would encourage people to buy the single to discover the
meaning behind the image.
