After the early biomineralisation event in the early Paleozoic (Cambrian –Ordovician; 541 – 443.8 Ma), the Late Triassic (237 – 201.3 Ma) represents another key period of biomineralisation with the onset of the Mesozoic plankton radiation. In the Carnian (237 – 227 Ma), the first calcifying dinoflagellates are recorded followed by the nannoliths in the middle Norian (Alaunian) and the coccolithoph
Debates on technologies for harnessing renewable energies tend to generate a polarized arena in which critical voices are automatically denounced as defenders of fossil energy. This has created a difficult situation for activists and scholars voicing concerns about the comparatively low power density, low net energy, and environmental justice concerns of such technologies. In this paper, we highli

To expose the fetishism of modern technology, founded on the unwarranted ontological distinction between nature and society, we

Hemophilia A/B are caused by deficiency or lack of coagulation factors VIII (FVIII) or factor IX (FIX), respectively, in plasma. A person with hemophilia develops bleeding in the joints and muscles at an early age, which, if left untreated, leads to early arthropathy. Preventive treatment can be achieved by regular (prophylactic) administration of FVIII/FIX. In 1958, this was implemented on a smal
Swedish artist Kristina Müntzing physically engages with archives of textile industries through manipulating, enlarging, fragmenting and re-constructing (re-weaving) photographs that she finds, as well as creating performances that explore the carnal aspects of this history. In this way, she makes connections between such embodied understandings and the political struggles of the time, which conti
