Confrontation and Ridicule

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2009
Ridicule can be used in order to create concurrence as well as to en-hance antagonism. This paper deals with ridicule that is used by a critic when he is responding to a standpoint or to a reason advanced in support of a standpoint.

In the Forest Between Us

open access: yesThe International Journal of Screendance, 2015
My practice is driven by a need to begin with the familiar in order to find the edges of the unfamiliar: the savage and ridiculous, wayward and preposterous that make up the place where something—however small—has not already been captured and classified

Grotesco compasivo y carnaval en la narrativa de Luis Landero

open access: yesConfluenze, 2015
Landero ́s characters live in a common world, aspire to the sublime and fall into the grotesque, revealed by the deformation, but not degradation, of their humanity; they never lose their dignity, however ridiculous the experiences they must face may be,

open access: yes, 2007
This is an address delivered to the International Society for Humor Studies in 2007. The question was posed: why is there so much laughter in the Book of Genesis? The Bible was not held up to ridicule or laughed at because it told funny stories.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

Fresh Silo Polish, Serf! [PDF]

Impact of Oxygen Plasma Pre‐Treatment on Thermal Oxidation and Reliability of SiO2 on 4H‐SiC

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
We investigate how oxygen plasma pre‐treatment affects the thermal oxidation of silicon carbide. While plasma modification increases growth rates by 84%, it reduces dielectric breakdown strength by 18%. Our findings reveal that although plasma improves the interface state density, it introduces structural damage, highlighting a critical trade‐off ...

On Remembering a Post-Digital Future

open access: yesA Peer-Reviewed Journal About, 2014
We have always been post-digital or at least I cannot recall a time when art wasn’t?  To claim this is surely ridiculous, as the post condition demands the prior instantiation of a digital state that purportedly did not begin until the mid 1970s. Yet if,
