Digitaliseringen och utvecklingen av en ny generation artificiell intelligens (AI) medför betydande förändring i ekonomi och samhälle. Men hur den förändringen ser ut beror inte bara på den nya tekniken, utan också på hur den till slut används. Tekniska framsteg har genom historien spelat en avgörande roll för långsiktig tillväxt och välståndsökningar, men produktivitetsökningar kommer inte gratis

The works, which consist of wooden planks mounted on steel supports, at first look deceptively like found objects, like standard industrial pallets. Upon closer study they are obviously handcrafted, not manufactured. Fredrik Værslev’s Garden Paintings first appeared in 2011. The planks themselves may be industrially made, but they are mounted manually and subjected to a variety of painterly techni

The physics of the geomagnetic field is introduced, plausible mechanisms of magnetoreception are mentioned and observations and findings concerning magnetic field orientation in different organisms are presented. -from English summary

The return of monochrome painting - why it’s back, and where to see it in Berlin.The exhibition consists of ten more or less monochromatic paintings from the past four decades, including works by John M Armleder, Tauba Auerbach, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Matias Faldbakken, Isa Genzken, Allison Katz, Michael Krebber, Olivier Mosset, Charlotte Posenenske and Josh Smith. Organized and curated by Fredrik

While digitalisation is oftentimes thought of as a global megatrend and something that transcends national borders and geographical distances, it is at the same time a very tangible process exhibiting considerable regional and sectoral variation. Against this backdrop, Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) (a policy initiative in the context of the Digitising European Industry (DEI) strategy of the EU) c

Anthropogenic activities threaten many wildlife populations by increasing mortality rates, making it crucial to identify the locations and causes of mortality to inform conservation actions. Technological advancements, such as GPS satellite tracking, enable precise recording of wildlife movements. High-resolution data from such devices can facilitate rapid carcass recovery and provide insights int

For all its physical modesty, a small administrative cuneiform tablet currently in the collections of the West Point Museum, part of the U.S. Army Center of Military History and located at the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY, has become quite the celebrity in numerous online fora and blog posts, being presented as evidence of cultural relations between the Old World and the New pr

The orientation of juvenile marsh warblers during autumn migration was investigated at two widely different latitudes, in Sweden and in Kenya, by cage experiments in manipulated magnetic fields during the twilight period after sunset. The objective was to compare responses by birds exposed to different geomagnetic conditions, particularly to the shift in magnetic inclination between the northern a

A male common swift Apus apus was equipped with a light logger on August 5, 2010, and again captured in his nest 298 days later. The data stored in the light logger enables analysis of the fascinating travel it made in this time period. The state of the art algorithm for geolocation based on light loggers consists in computing first sunrise and sunset from the logged data, which are then converted

The exhibition is the fruit of a discussion that begun in 2015 with Etienne Bernard, director of the Frac Bretagne and curator of the exhibition, is intended to be an important step in his career.It will constitute a form of retrospective of Værslevs entire production over the past 15 years. The artist will present a new series that will serve as a “re-reading rail” for his older series. Thus, the

Indipendenza Roma is proud to present Louise Lawler / Fredrik Værslev, a two-person exhibition that responds directly to our unique spaces to explore the tension between an artwork and its surrounding architectural context, spurring questions of taste, value, function, and decoration.

The aim of this study was, by analysing recoveries and resightings of Caspian Terns Hydroprogne caspia ringed in Sweden, (1) to identify areas of importance during their migration and wintering, (2) to investigate the annual routines of migration and wintering of different age categories, and (3) to investigate how human activities, especially shooting, have affected survival of Caspian Terns over

Migratory naive birds are thought to find the migration route from their natal site to a specific wintering area by either clock-and-compass orientation or goal area navigation. These two alternative hypotheses were tested by extensive longitudinal displacements of juvenile wheatears, hatched in northeastern Siberia, on their first autumn migration towards the wintering area in East Africa. Orient

Sleep is a universal and complex state and it is widely agreed that this state is present in every animal species. However, the evolutionary origins of sleep remain ignored or misunderstood, which has led researchers to study, in various species, this common behaviour of all living organisms. Sleep is commonly studied at various levels under laboratory conditions, using tethered devices which reco

Brent geese, Branta bernicia hrota, were equipped with satellite transmitters on a spring stop-over site in Iceland. The brent geese deposit heavy fuel reserves for long-distance flights across the high Greenland ice-cap to breeding destinations in north Canada. Satellite tracking of brent geese on this journey serves the twofold purpose of testing specific predictions about: (i) size-dependent po

Stopover duration and fat accumulation were studied during autumn migration at two sites near Ottenby, Oland, SE Sweden in 1985 and 1986. Post juvenile moult was scored on juvenile birds. In several of the species fat class and body mass increased with day of season (thrush nightingale Luscinia luscinia, barred warbler Sylvia nisoria, and whitethroat S. communis), while in the lesser whitethroat S
