On 3‐MMC: A Cathinone I Have Come to Know and Love

open access: yesAnthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article attempts to complicate the mythology of a compound in a state of becoming. I will trace lightly its origins as a cultural disruptor and how I am implicated in this imperative. Introducing you to 3‐MMC will require multiple modes of storytelling and taking of liberties, drawing on literature reviews, practice‐based research, prose,

Not all collaboration benefits from competition: Collaboration modes in a computational thinking game

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital game‐based learning often leverages social dynamics to enhance engagement, yet the interplay between collaborative structures and competitive pressures remains complex. This study investigated different collaboration modes and how they interact with competition to influence computational thinking (CT) learning, group metacognition and ...

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

How important are within‐occupation task changes for wage growth? Evidence from administrative micro data

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
We examine how changes in task content over time condition occupational wage development. Using survey data from Germany, we document substantial heterogeneity in within‐occupation changes in task content. Combining this evidence with administrative data on individual employment outcomes over a 25‐year period, we find important heterogeneity in wage ...

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...
