Circular economy in the building industry has gained much attention in recent years, yet thus far, little research has been conducted on the topic of intensified building use, despite its great potential in terms of emission reduction. One way to intensify building use can be by sharing spaces among different users at different times. This study explores how the cities of Amsterdam and Malmö enabl

The restaurant industry in increasingly aware of sustainability issues with around 34% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions come from life-cycle stages in food systems and increased concerns over packaging and food waste. The Michelin Restaurant Guide has awarded the distinction of a Green Star to restaurants at the forefront of the industry in their sustainability. However, although restaura

The rapid technological advancements of modern times have brought about the need for an innovative and contemporary approach to medical waste management procedures. This arises from the inadequacy of conventional manual techniques in ensuring the safety of employees and the environment from infections. The increasing amount of waste produced each day can exacerbate the situation if no action is ta

A 1-m normal-incidence monochromator has been designed and installed on a bending-magnet beam line at the MAX storage ring in Lund. The optical properties of the beam line have been investigated via ray-tracing studies and with flux measurements of the beam line-monochromator combination. A resolution of 0.9 Å at 919.8 Å was measured in first-order diffraction with an argon hollow-cathode lamp forA 1-m normal-incidence monochromator has been designed and installed on a bending-magnet beam line at the MAX storage ring in Lund.

Cuttings of text and image come together to form Sara Leydon’s Baroness de Lancinena (1990) and Alice Kyteler (1990). Each a reference to a woman either identified or accused of practicing witchcraft, these two collages are part of a series first shown in a 1990 solo exhibition titled Conviction at Artspeak. Their history in this city is considerable, living long-term in the collection of Christos

Julie Ault and Alejandro Cesarco have a conversation about the conversations in their work.

Som del av det offentliga konstverket Att lyssna till staden uppförs den 3 juni en konsert på Klostergården med ungdomsorkestern Kammarorkestern från Kulturskolan i Lund. Genom en serie workshops med konstnären Maj Hasager och kompositören Ask Kæreby har en grupp musikelever vid Kulturskolan utvecklat och finslipat sina förmågor att lyssna, fånga upp och återskapa stadens ljud. Processen bygger påAtt Lyssna till Staden was a performance as a part of the public commision for Lund City Council

How can we understand British depictions of the German ‘race’, if they are understood as belonging to the same racial category? We argue that an analysis of racial depictions must be based on historical and cultural understandings. We present ‘race’ as anall-encompassing, flexible historical phenomenon, that includes cultural racism. We found that cultural and biological racism overlapped, working

Waste of polymer products, especially plastics, in nature has become a problem that caught the awareness of the general public during the last decade. The macro- and micro polymers in nature will be broken down by naturally occurring events such as mechanical wear and ultra-violet (UV) radiation which will result in the generation of polymeric particles in the nano-size range. We have recently sho

While prior research has gleaned important insight into consumers’ social media engagement, an important literature-based tension exists that warrants further attention. On the one hand, females are increasingly empowered (e.g., through their rising spending power). On the other hand, advertising-based gender stereotypes persist, thus limiting female consumers’ empowerment and decelerating adverti

The film medium has a very large potential to convey thoughts about history to the public. Previous studies of historical film have focused on analyzing the films. The purpose of this master’s thesis is instead to find patterns in the effect the historical elements have on the films' narrative, as well as how they value history. To achieve this, two sub-questions have been formulated. • Do th

Bricolage has its origins in anthropology, with the bricoleur identified as someone who develops a practice via process, understanding their environs by using what is at hand. In an art historical context, bricolage has no single strategy, methodology, or trajectory. This exhibition identifies contemporary practices by Em Hedditch (1972, UK), Lili Huston-Herterich (1988, US), and Jean-Paul Kelly (

A review of the group exhibition "Soundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts" at the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery curated by Candice Hopkins & Dylan Robinson.

“There is something to confess: your speaker likes to leave a movie theater. Back out on the more or less empty, more or less brightly lit sidewalk (it is invariably at night, and during the week, that he goes), and heading uncertainly for some café or other, he walks in silence (he doesn’t like discussing the film he’s just seen), a little dazed, wrapped up in himself…”In his 1975 essay, Leaving
