Speculative Prototypes and Alien Ethnographies: Experimenting with Relations Beyond the Human
Diseña, 2018 This article concerns the role of speculative design prototypes as a means of intervening into everyday life contexts in order to explore, and possibly enable, new kinds of relations between humans and non-human beings. By addressing a human de-centring

Nature-based solutions as more-than-human art: Co-evolutionary and co-creative design approaches
Nature-Based Solutions, 2023 Nature-based solutions (NbS) are mostly seen as engineering approaches to meeting challenges of human societies under ecological stress, while also nurturing biodiversity. We argue that given the accelerating speed of environmental change, NbS design for

Interspecies Collaboration in the Design of Visual Identity: A Case Study
CoRR, 2022 Design usually relies on human ingenuity, but the past decade has seen the field's toolbox expanding to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its adjacent methods, making room for hybrid, algorithmic creations. This article aims to substantiate the concept of interspecies collaboration - that of natural and artificial intelligence - in the active co ...

Structure model index does not measure rods and plates in trabecular bone [PDF]
, 2015 Structure model index (SMI) is widely used to measure rods and plates in trabecular bone. It exploits the change in surface curvature that occurs as a structure varies from spherical (SMI = 4), to cylindrical (SMI = 3) to planar (SMI = 0).
