International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract In this article I introduce the concept of augural territories to theorize the urbanism that emerged during pandemic lockdowns.

Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We propose a novel approach for constructing wide bounding volume hierarchies on the GPU by integrating a simple bottom‐up collapsing procedure within an existing binary bottom‐up BVH builder. Our approach directly constructs a wide BVH without traversing a temporary binary BVH as done by previous approaches and achieves 1.4 – 1.6 × lower ...
