Foraging in space and time
… small mammals were exposed to different levels and types of predation risk while actively foraging. Individuals were either exposed to different predator types (airborne or ground) or combinations of both, or to indirect predators (nest predators). Risk was assumed to be distributed …

Thresholds in Space and Time
… no better opportunity to capture movement and change than in the design of thresholds. They can be a simple strip of metal beneath a doorway, barely noticed as you pass over it, or a grand atrium that you stop and marvel at on your way into the office. They can manifest as a change of …

Thermal design through space and time
… factor in the overall experience one has inside and outside a building. However, thermal issues are not often considered within the context of the architectural design process, resulting in buildings that are not responsive to thermal concerns. Heat has the potential to influence the form of …

Constructing multiple objects across space and time
… with our environment we must have an understanding of the location and properties of the objects within it over time. Incoming stimuli from different sensory modalities continuously provide information. In order to create a coherent percept, it is necessary to combine these sensory signals in …

Human intestinal cells across space and time
… dynamic changes from development to adulthood and in response to environmental stimuli. Recent advances in high-throughput profiling of cells using transcriptomic approaches have vastly expanded the catalogue of cells that are found across the human body. Nonetheless, a holistic view of …

Of Space and Time: Film and the Female Performer
… the question of representing a female space-time through a visualevocation of interiority and female subjectivity by creating a form of haptic ‘cinema’. My practice draws on the concept of haptic visuality in order to explore an embodied immersive filmmaking. The films explore the …

Redistribution Effects of Wetland Mitigation Over Space and Time
… mitigation programs actually relocate wetlands through off-site mitigation from urban to rural areas and whether that relocation causes socioeconomic disparities. I demonstrate that the extent of wetland relocation and redistribution differs significantly with choice of mitigation method, …

Seeing through Space and Time: Asynchronous Event Processing for Robots
… systems, facilitating perception, planning and interaction with the world. Event perception offers a revolutionary new sensing modality to enable real-time perception for autonomous systems. Similar to how humans and animals perceive the world, an event-based sensor measures the continuous …

Charge fluctuations of the strange metal in space and time
… of many-body quantum physics, as it defies the standard Fermi liquid theory of metals due to the absence of well-defined, electron-like quasiparticles. It has been presumed that strange metal behavior arises due to strong correlations between electrons that are not present in ordinary Fermi …

Visual query tools for uncertain data in space and time
The aim of our project was to develop query and visualisation tools for this archive of African art. Our query system had to be designed to cope with different degrees of uncertainty in data, both in time and space. One of our initial ideas was to use a geographic map to drive the interface to the …

MirrorFugue : communicating presence in musical collaboration across space and time
… the problem of conveying presence across space and time. My work focuses on collaborative music, but findings may be generalized to other fields of collaboration. I present MirrorFugue, a set of interfaces for a piano keyboard designed to visualize the body of a collaborator. I begin by …

Transcending Space and Time: The emerging urban morphosis around spaceports
… possible development of a new urban form around space launching sites. A city form that is built with the influence of job opportunities offered at the spaceport and its surrounding local conditions-a futuristic company town. The design approach is derived from a multitude of learnings from the …

Space and time scales of low frequency variability in the ocean
… horizontal wavenumber, frequency, vertical mode and geography. We assume horizontal isotropy, Φ(K, ω, η, φ, λ) = 2πKψ(k, l, ω, η, φ, λ), with K designating the amplitude of total horizontal wavenumber. The parameters of Φ(K, ω, η, φ, λ) can be derived from observations: (i) satellite altimetry …

Multi-scale satellite-derived soil moisture modeling across space and time
Understanding soil moisture processes and their spatial-temporal distribution holds great promise for advancements in water resources management, agriculture, and natural disaster assessment. Soil moisture, a crucial component of available water, influences evaporation evapotranspiration and …

Allopoietics in Real Time: Unfolding Among Art, Publics, Space, and Time
This thesis proposes a conceptual lens for understanding contemporary generative arts by introducing the terms Allopoietics and Liquid Media. Building on generative and participatory art, it focuses on the real-time processes among artworks, publics, spaces, and time through which meaning …

Ways of Monsoon Air: Entanglements and Stories of Matter, Space, and Time
… force of matter that makes, co-constitutes and is made by its many worlds. Having emerged from the context of the Monsoon Assemblages project, this doctoral thesis asks how the air of the monsoon re-orients, informs, animates and confronts the way we view Delhi and how the city animates, …
