This document summarizes a research project studying representations of Circe and Aeëtes, two Greek deities whose classification as mortal or immortal varied in different texts. The project aims to understand mechanisms governing expressions of immortality among Greek gods and how gender paradigms influenced religious and political thought. Findings may help modern creators working with Greek myths, especially in video games and screenwriting, to bridge the gap between classics scholars and modern media. The research is funded by the Foundation for Polish Science and EU Regional Development Fund.

Presentation1
This presentation discusses several fringe science concepts including telekinesis, pyrokinesis, wormholes, telepathy, and parallel universes. Fringe science departs from mainstream theories and is considered highly speculative. The presentation provides brief explanations of each concept and cites their proposed abilities, such as using the mind to manipulate objects or fire. It also mentions additional fringe events like flesh melting contagions and mind control. The presenter recommends viewing the TV series Fringe for its exploration of fringe scientific concepts.
Xenophane
Xenophanes of Colophon was a 6th-5th century BC Greek poet and philosopher who traveled extensively. He criticized the common practice of anthropomorphism in religion, believing gods should not be ascribed human qualities. Xenophanes was an early proponent of monotheism or pantheism. He made contributions to natural philosophy by proposing clouds and water as fundamental elements and natural phenomena having rational explanations rather than divine origins. Xenophanes was also a skeptic of the possibility of certain knowledge about gods or the natural world.
Minerva
Harold Innis theorizes about the relationship between media technologies and societies in decline. He posits that inflexible communication technologies that do not adapt to local languages lead to monopolies and hierarchies. However, flexible technologies allow vernacular languages to spread knowledge more widely. As a new technology emerges, it challenges existing power structures. The masses typically overpower ruling elasses through force. Monopolies rely on organized force to maintain power but become rigid over time, disconnecting from local communities. This enables new technologies to spread ideas from the fringes of society and lead to societal change.
ENGL 511 Day One Lecture
This document provides an overview of the history and definitions of rhetoric in Western thought. It begins with definitions of rhetoric from ancient Greek philosophers like Aristotle, Plato, and others. It then outlines the origins and development of rhetoric from its emergence in ancient Greece and Sicily to its treatment by major thinkers through Roman, medieval, Renaissance, and Enlightenment periods. It discusses how rhetoric was both embraced and criticized depending on the era. The document concludes with a brief discussion of rhetoric's revival in the 20th century with new approaches and the formation of rhetoric organizations and degree programs.
H4 hellenistic world
Late Classic Greek philosophy was dominated by Plato and Aristotle. Plato believed in eternal forms and advocated for rule by philosopher kings, while Aristotle focused on logic and scientific investigation. The 16th century work The School of Athens by Raphael spread the erroneous idea that Renaissance Europe's culture directly descended from Classical Greece. In reality, Greek scientific thought diffused eastward during the Hellenistic period, and these ideas were later maintained in Persia and highly developed in Islamic civilizations before spreading to Europe over 1400 years later. Philip of Macedon expanded his kingdom in northern Greece and consolidated the southern Balkan peninsula until his assassination in 323 BCE. His son, Alexander the Great, then led military campaigns from 336 to 323

Sexual tourism against minors is a world plague that encompasses mainly the south east Asian region, Latin America, Africa and eastern Europe. Western countries are those which register the biggest outgoing fluxes. Sexual tourists abuse of the common channels and networks of tourism to reach their victims. Companies and workers in the sector may play an important role in the prevention and struggle against this practice.

Shell Energy Paths 2050
This document summarizes a presentation by Ged Davis from Shell about their long-term energy scenarios exploring how the global energy system may change between now and 2050. The scenarios consider how population growth, urbanization, increasing wealth, and market liberalization could influence the energy system while halting increases in carbon emissions. The scenarios contrast an evolutionary transition away from fossil fuels toward renewables against a potential hydrogen economy enabled by revolutionary fuel cell and other technologies. Key uncertainties include the availability of oil and gas, the development of renewable energy and storage technologies, and how consumer and policy choices shape the transition.

Challenge: Develop agents that can pass on information about a past or distant culture without disrupting historic authenticity or player engagement.
Aim: Develop proof of concepts using historical situations, face tracking, speech to text or biofeedback and game-themed situations.
Opportunity: developments in biofeedback and realistic avatars, and camera tracking.
Future direction: combine with psychologists and animation specialists along with linguists, historians and art historians.Knowing the Mind Through Science
This paper argues that landscape archaeology, which combines cognitive archaeology and geographic information systems, allows archaeologists to better understand past cultures. It provides an example from a study done at Ball State University analyzing pre-Christian Irish myths and archaeological sites mentioned within the myths using GIS. The study found correlations between mythological places and actual sites, validating the myths. This bridges the gap between cognitive archaeology's analysis of symbolic thought and archaeology's examination of physical evidence, showing how the two fields can be combined through landscape archaeology.

Learning from games At the DH campsite
Some critics may have you believe that computer game studies lack theoretical rigor, that games cannot afford meaningful experiences. I agree with them, sometimes, but I also believe that a richer understanding of computer games is possible, and that this understanding can shed some light on related issues in the wider field of Digital Humanities.
My main area of research has been designing and evaluating how contextually appropriate interaction can aid the understanding of cultures distant in time, space, and in understanding to our own. This field is sometimes called Virtual Heritage. In Virtual Heritage, tools of choice are typically virtual reality environments, and the projects are very large in scale, complexity, and cost, while my projects are often prototypes and experimental designs. I have many challenges, for example, morphing technological constraints into cultural affordances, and avoiding possible confusion between artistic artifice and historical accuracy, all the while evaluating intangible concepts in a systematic way without disturbing the participants’ sense of immersion. To help me judge the success or failure of these projects I have shaped some working definitions of games, culture, cultural understanding, cultural inhabitation, and place. However, these concepts and definitions are not enough. I also have to now tackle the issues of simulated violence, artificial “other” people, the temptation of entertainment masquerading as education, and the difficulties inherent in virtually evoking a sense of ritual.
My lecture, then, is a discussion into how game-based learning, and the study of culture, heritage and history, might meaningfully intersect.
The Place Of Utopia In Todays Science
This document summarizes a study on scientists' views of utopia in their work. It surveyed 388 scientists from different fields and continents. The study found the highest percentage of scientists with "no utopias" came from Europe, while Africa had the highest percentage with collective utopias related to knowledge. Individual utopias were more common in natural sciences. America had the most fully formed visions of science. Gender did not influence views of contemporary science. The study provided insight into how scientists currently view the relationship between science, knowledge, and communication.

Anthropology is the study of humanity, examining humans and human behavior across all places and time periods. It takes a holistic and comparative approach, seeking to understand cultural similarities and differences from an emic, or insider's, perspective. Anthropology has its roots in 18th century philosophy but emerged as a formal academic discipline in the late 19th century, driven by Western colonial expansion. It is a broad field that covers all aspects of what it means to be human, from biology and evolution to culture, beliefs, and social organization. Key to anthropological research is long-term ethnographic fieldwork using qualitative methods like participant observation and interviews to understand local contexts from an emic viewpoint.

Displaying research data between archaeologists or to the general public is usually through linear presentations, timed or stepped through by a presenter. Through the use of motion tracking and gestures being tracked by a camera sensor, presenters can provide a more engaging experience to their audience, as they won't have to rely on prepared static media, timing, or a mouse. While low-cost camera tracking allow participants to have their gestures, movements, and group behaviour fed into the virtual environment, either directly (the presenter is streamed) or indirectly (a character represents the presenter).
Using an 8 metre wide curved display (Figure 1) that can feature several on-screen panes at once, the audience can view the presenter next to a digital environment, with slides or movies or other presentation media triggered by the presenter’s hand or arm pointing at specific objects (Figure 2). An alternative is for a character inside the digital environment mirroring the body gestures of the presenter; where the virtual character points will trigger slides or other media that relates to the highlighted 3D objects in the digital scene.phils_extract

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid
Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement. Key words. stars: black holes– stars: formation– Galaxy: center– galaxies: star formation

Gendering (im)mortals:characters of Aeetes and Kirke and exploration of alternative paradigms of divine immortality
- 1. Gendering (im)mortals: characters of Aeëtes and Circe and exploration of alternative paradigms of divine immortality in Theogony, Odyssey and Argonautics Maciej Paprocki, MA University of Wroclaw / University of Liverpool The Project „The Eastern Mediterranean from the 4th century BC until Late Antiquity” is realized within International Ph.D. Projects Programme of Foundation for Polish Science cofinanced from European Union, Regional Development Fund within the frameworks of Measure 1.2 “Strengthening the Human Potential within the Science Sector” of the Operational Program Innovative Economy.
- 2. The main problem • We know little about what makes an Ancient Greek deity mortal or immortal: not all were immortal! • Curiously, Greek myths mention divine beings who are classified as immortals in some texts and as mortals in other ones – fuzzy classification • Exact classification of a being depends on in-text narrative constraints (being’s gender, descent etc.) • This project studies representations of Kirke and Aeëtes, two such ambiguously (im)mortal Greek deities
- 3. Objectives • To study mechanisms governing the expression of immortality or lack thereof among Greek deities • To gain understanding of how gender paradigms influenced Ancient Greek religious / political thought • To make findings relevant to creators working with Ancient Greek myths (especially in video game design and screenwriting) and thus, to bridge the gap between Classical scholars and modern creators
