Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Ancient Maya texts are informationally dominated by hieroglyphic inscriptions and visually dominated by figural art with distinctly formed hands. The hands suggest iconographically embedded hand signs, which would constitute a unique modality of semantic expression and a discourse complement to hieroglyphic writing.

The Outsider Within. Anticolonial Critiques of Humanity and the Cosmopolitan Vision

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.

A new observable for holographic cosmology

Journal of High Energy Physics
Abstract The double-cone geometry is a saddle of the gravitational path integral, which explains the chaotic statistics of the spectrum of black hole microstates. This geometry is the usual AdS-Schwarzschild black hole, but with a periodic identification of the time coordinate; the resulting singularity at the black hole horizon is
