RADMIN Reader 2019
RADMIN Reader 2019. Edited, formatted, printed and distributed for RADMIN, Britain's first festival of Administration, Bristol, February 2019
Ars Vitae Volume 08
How can we take the time we need with the work and people we love without feeling chased?
Dust & Shadow Fieldnotes
Fieldnotes collected over the course of two years during three fieldtrips in the deserts of the North-American Southwest. A panexperiential travelogue through the landscapes of the Anthropocene.
Visualising the urban green volume: Exploring LiDAR voxels with tangible technologies and virtual models
Using waveform LiDAR data to measure the three-dimensional nature of the urban greenspace, we explore different ways of virtually, and tangibly engaging with volumetric models describing the 3D distribution of urban vegetation.
A novel approach to wildlife transcriptomics
Provides evidence of diseaseâmediated differential expression and changes to the microbiome of amphibian populations. We compared gene expression of frogs with and without epidemic disease, and by chance also find differences in the frog microbiomes indicating an interaction between the microbiome and disease.
An emerging viral pathogen
...truncates population age structure in a European amphibian and may reduce population viability. This paper shows for the first time that Ranavirus truncates the age structure of amphibian populations, and that this increase in adult mortality could heighten the vulnerability of frog populations to stochastic environmental challenges.
Thinking-with the swamp
The swamp doesnât allow for a cartesian way of mapping, it doesn't allow to figurate it and give it a fixed identity. As such, it is a liminal being, always becoming, always in-between.
Ephemeral Garden
The Ephemeral Garden soundscape evokes the sense of convivial gatherings under a pergola. The murmur of conversation, complemented with the sound of animate matter.
Fieldguide to Random Forests
Research and essays from the programme with contributions by Maja Kuzmanovic, Nik Gaffney, Ian Ingram, Driessens/Verstappen, Wilfried Hou Je Bek, Klaas Kuitenbrouwer, Michelle Gerearts, Tivon Rice, Jan de Graaf, Jeroen van Westen, Antti Tenetz, Jacqueline Heerema, and others..
Terrafictions
The work of care in the Anthropocene is a struggle with scale and scope and sentience. If we assume that the entire material bestiary has some form of sentience, how do we respond to climate change or mass extinction?
In anticipation of things already present.
FoAM's views on futures, uncertainty, attunement and transformation. This article is adapted from FoAM's lecture-performance at the "Anticipation 2017".
Dust & Shadow Reader #1
A commonplace book about living in the desert. The Dust & Shadow Readers are self-published collections of writings and bibliographic wandering designed to accompany our speculative experiments with the Laboratory for Critical Technics in and around the deserts of Arizona.
the passage - nightly build
nightly build is a tiny A7 sized photocopied zine that fits in the palm of your hand so you can always carry it with you. It is a collaborative collection of thoughts, writings, prose, poetry, drama, problems, solutions, images, photos, drawings, circuits, concepts, interpretations, illustrations, dreams or philosophical fragments about the theme of this issue â the passage.People who collaborate receive a freshly printed zine straight to their letterbox. You can find a digital version for printout or e-reader in the attached documents.
Comment faire soi-mĂȘme... avec l'aide des experts
[EN] How citizen-driven research advocates ended up organizing a workshop with university experts?[FR] Comment des avocats de la recherche autonome et citoyenne dans des laboratoires associatifs en sont venus à organiser un événement avec des experts universitaires?
Data collection and storage in long-term ecological and evolutionary studies: The Mongoose 2000 system
We describe a system we have developed called Mongoose 2000 for the study of multiple individuals in the wild over many years.
Coding with Knots
In this paper we explore new ways to approach understanding of the mysterious Precolumbian quipus, using both visual and sonic interpretations. We base our investigation on the Harvard Quipu Archive, starting with graphical visualisation techniques that give us an overall view so we can compare textile structures and perform basic cryptanalysis. We use listening and sonification in order to filter and compare the different modes of data representation (knot type, colour, twist and material). This provides new ways to explore both currently understood and unknown patterns of meaning in quipus.
Sonic Kayaks: Environmental monitoring and experimental music by citizens
The Sonic Kayak is a musical instrument used to investigate nature and developed during open hacklab events. The kayaks are rigged with underwater environmental sensors, which allow paddlers to hear real-time water temperature sonifications and underwater sounds, generating live music from the marine world.
Wild Poethics
Exploring relational and embodied practices in urban-making, PhD Thesis by Anna Maria OrrĂč
Textility of Code: A Catalogue of Errors
This article presents a series of informal experiments in software and weaving, most of which were conducted as part of the Weaving Codes, Coding Weaves project.
La science n'est pas réservée aux scientifiques (professionnels)
Visitons ensemble un espace partagĂ© oĂč des citoyens dĂ©veloppent par eux-mĂȘmes les techniques nĂ©cessaires Ă leur vie quotidienne.
An ecological role for assortative mating under infection?
Wildlife diseases are emerging at a higher rate than ever before meaning that understanding their potential impacts is essential, especially for those species and populations that may already be of conservation concern.
A Lab Approach for Marine CoLABoration
Using the lab approach to enhance flows of knowledge in the environmental sector, thereby developing the capacity needed to improve the health of the ocean.
FoAM has left the building...
A memoir of 'The Great Ephemeralisation of FoAM bxl', a conscious closure of 14 years of FoAM's studio on Koolmijnenkaai in Brussels.
Population genetic structure in European lobsters: implications for connectivity, diversity and hatchery stocking
In this paper we use genetics to see if lobsters form separate populations around the coast of Cornwall in the UK. This information is useful for conservation organisations which release hatchery reared young lobsters into the wild in an effort to replenish lobster numbers.
A new android smartphone app for geospatial mapping from drones and kites
This conference paper describes the development, testing and deployment of a free-to-use, open-source, android-based smartphone application for capturing geo-tagged aerial photographs for grass-roots remote sensing (RS) and mapping applications.
Tanglebots
We ask for the theoretical points where weaving and computer programming connect and develop codes and code machines to pursue these questions.
Organoleptic Interfaces: Exploring Embodied Methods in Foodscapes
In the move to re-acquaint urban green and in-between spaces as solely parks and open spaces, this research looks to the concept of emerging foodscapes to form a transformative behaviour with food in the city. Urban population growth, unstable food security, environmental consequences of industrial food production are all motives for concern, alongside individual awareness of food provisioning, seasonal availability and behaviour.
Durf Falen: Keep it Simple
Keep it Simple: Langeafstandsknuffelmachine wordt persoonlijke nachtmerrie, an article by Kira Van Den Ende based on an interview with Maja Kuzmanovic about one of FoAM's biggest failures: lyt_A
Enacting Futures in Postnormal Times
This paper discusses why working with futures is particularly relevant in times of social and environmental turbulence and suggests that a more widespread futures literacy can increase agency in uncertain conditions. We provide examples of FoAMâs works with experiential futures, to illustrate our experimental approach, aiming to bridge the gap between future visions and everyday life.
Population genetic structure in European lobsters: implications for connectivity, diversity and hatchery stocking
This publication is part of Charlie Ellis' PhD, which was co-supervised by FoAM Kernow. Here we assess lobster population structure at a fine scale in Cornwall, southwestern UK, where a hatchery-stocking operation introduces cultured individuals into the wild stock, and at a broader European level, in order to compare the spatial scale of hatchery releases with that of population connectivity.
