Den analyserar de sociala strukturer som bar fram Nationalmuseums inköpsnämnds och museinämnds årliga beslutsförslag till Kungl.

A time influenced by major events such as the First World War, Sweden’s industrial revolution and the advent of universal suffrage. During this period, the production and consumption of the Arts was characterised by rivalry between three fractions,

Night for Day uses the fake relationship between a mother and a son to think about what would happen if a communist revolutionary gave birth to a techno utopian, if gender as performitivity was thought through the lens of women making the political decision to live clandestinely in Portugal for a larger part of the 20th century and if the “Last Woman” were the fem bot from The Tales of Hoffman.Com

Sleep Patterns and Musical Chairs takes the imaginary of the nation state – projecting the patterns that car headlights make on our ceiling at night whilst musical hallucinations of national anthems bleed in through the space. The architecture becomes a part of the piece through these accidental moving highlights that make us think of not being able to sleep whilst pointing towards a fake origin-

The opening seconds of Emily Wardill’s film Identical (2023) are simple and elemental: the seductive play of light on water. Or, put another way, the film begins by depicting the moment where one thing bends, reflects and distorts another – and is seen differently as a consequence. This jewel-like mirage is doubled across a second screen. Initially, each image appears indistinguishable from the ot

From 1945 to 1946, Zygmunt Lakocinski (1905-1987) served as the head of the Polish Research Institute in Lund. The Institute conducted interviews with newly arrived concentration camp prisoners, thus documenting the traumatic wartime experiences of repatriates. With the evacuated former prisoners in mind, Lakocinski founded and served as the editor of the Polish-language weekly "Polak". The collec

Over the years, electronic waste accumulation has been on a steep rise, parallel with the technological evolution of electrical and electronic equipment. Companies have adopted circular economy approach to overcome the emerging waste issue in the last few decades, where goods can return to manufacturers or remanufacturers. They can be used after certain modifications or remanufacturing processes.

The small body of research on writing and writing processes in the group of deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children has shown that this group struggles more with writing than their hearing peers. This article aims to explore in what ways the DHH group differs from their peers regarding the written product and the writing processes. Participants are all in the age span 10–12 years old and include:

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are established pharmaceutical therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. They mimic the action of GLP-1 to reduce glucose levels through stimulation of insulin secretion and inhibition of glucagon secretion. They also reduce body weight by inducing satiety through central actions. The GLP-1 receptor agonists used clinically are ba

Type 2 diabetes and dementia are associated, but it is unclear whether the two diseases have common genetic risk markers that could partly explain their association. It is also unclear whether the association between the two diseases is of a causal nature. Furthermore, few studies on diabetes and dementia have validated dementia end-points with high diagnostic precision. We tested associations bet

In this paper, model-based sustainability assessment framework with social impact considerations is developed. The framework integrates the stochastic, nonlinear, and complex interrelationships that characterize most manufacturing systems, and incorporates their impact in the sustainability assessment module. The framework consists of three models that run successively, namely: stochastic discrete

Pteropodidae is the only phytophagous bat family that predominantly depends on visual and olfactory cues for orientation and foraging. During daytime, pteropodids of different species roost in sites with varying light exposure. Pteropodids have larger eyes relative to body size than insectivorous bats. Retinal topography has been studied in less than 10% of the approximately 200 pteropodid species
