Current planning and appraisal processes treat infrastructure as discrete, sector-specific assets, and as a consequence fail to identify and exploit potentially valuable interdependencies. Similarly, these silo-based approaches are unable to identify potentially hazardous and costly interdependencies in a systematic manner. A major challenge then for providers of modern infrastructure, is to realise the innovative opportunities in interdependencies, and so increase value-for-money, sustainability and resilience.e. To achieve this it is necessary to recognise that real-world infrastructure systems’ are highly interconnected, both with each other and with the socio economic and natural systems in which they are located.
This paper presents the outcome from a research partnership between the University of Bristol and University College London, sponsored by HM Treasury in the UK.
It proposes an ‘open-systems’, cross-sectoral approach to create and manage infrastructure interdependencies, and comprises a framework of principles (‘stewardship’, ‘shared-governance’ and ‘interdiscipliniarity’), and associated organisational maturity measures, and systems-based tools.

The inclusion of text is successful at encouraging rather than limiting a viewer’s interpretation of art and this is most evident in power of text, particularly narrative text. The inclusion of text does not hinder the meaning of the image, but encourages the viewer to think beyond what is presented, thus develop multiple interpretations—this is the power of narrative text that leads the viewer to create a relationship of identification or empathy with the subject matter and the artist. For these reasons, artists such as Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson, Pat Ward Williams, and Elizabeth Catlett include text as a narrative tool within their artwork, allowing the viewer to connect more closely with the subject matter and the artist. The use of first person narrative allows the viewer to temporarily occupy the artist’s identity or the subject’s identity, where the viewer can then develop an intimate relationship with the artwork. When a viewer visits an art gallery, often the viewer skims through the painting, sculpture, mixed media, or photograph at hand. The visual content is quickly consumed. Hence, a piece of art is barely given time for interpretation or deconstruction of its meaning. Too often people come out of art galleries looking exhausted, as if they had walked through a store rather than an art showing. The viewer does not take the time to discern the content of the visual arts and thus, the art is left without or little critical assessment. However, aiding the visual with text can change the viewer’s perception or encourage multiple interpretations of the work. Text causes the viewer to stop, and pause to read around, under, or, above the image, which leads the viewer to further assess the image. When establishing a relationship between the text and the image, the viewer is using the mechanism of dual coding. Dual coding, a phrase coined by Allan Pavio, a psychologist of the theory of cognition, is the process in which our mind shifts back and forth between the writing system and the visual system. Incorporating narrative text within the artwork enables the viewer to exercise dual coding to construct a unique relationship of identification or empathy.

Presentation given at the Science History Institute in Philadelphia, PA on February 11, 2020. Event description via Institute's website: Love letters almost came between Marie Curie and her second Nobel Prize. In the spring of 1910, several years after her husband’s death, Marie Curie began an affair with the married French physicist Paul Langevin. Just days before the Nobel Committee announced her second Nobel, Langevin’s wife made their love letters public. This scandal threatened Curie’s prize and inspired men to fight multiple duels over her honor.
Join us as we dig into the two love affairs that shaped Curie’s personal life—with Pierre Curie, her husband and scientific partner who died an early and tragic death, and Paul Langevin. Since letters were so important in both courtships, we’ll also look at some postage stamps featuring Marie Curie; her husband, Pierre; and Paul Langevin. Afterward, nerd out over treasures from our Othmer Library, and create a Valentine using historic inks.
This presentation was given on July 27th, 2017, for the annual Back to School Brunch sponsored by Fundamentals Children's Book Store in Delaware, Ohio. The program was presented by Karen Hildebrand.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
