Multi Layered Autonomy and AI Ecologies in Robotic Art Installations
Symbiosis of Agents is a large-scale installation by Baoyang Chen that embeds AI-driven robots in an immersive, mirror-lined arena, probing the tension between machine agency and artistic authorship. Drawing on early cybernetics, rule-based conceptual art, and seminal robotic works, it orchestrates fluid exchanges among robotic arms, quadruped machines, their environment, and the public. A three tier faith system pilots the ecology: micro-level adaptive tactics, meso-level narrative drives, and…

Observation of the Crab Nebula with the Single-Mirror Small-Size Telescope stereoscopic system at low altitude
The Single-Mirror Small-Size Telescope (SST-1M) stereoscopic system is composed of two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) designed for optimal performance for gamma-ray astronomy in the multi-TeV energy range. It features a 4-meter-diameter tessellated mirror dish and an innovative SiPM-based camera. Its optical system features a 4-m diameter spherical mirror dish based on the Davies-Cotton design, maintaining a good image quality over a large FoV while minimizing optical aberrati…

Performance of multiple filter-cavity schemes for frequency-dependent squeezing in gravitational-wave detectors
Gravitational-wave detectors use state-of-the-art quantum technologies to circumvent vacuum fluctuations via squeezed states of light. Future detectors such as Einstein Telescope may require the use of two filter cavities or a 3-mirror, coupled filter cavity to achieve a complex rotation of the squeezing ellipse in order to reduce the quantum noise over the whole detector bandwidth. In this work, we compare the theoretical feasibility and performances of these two systems and their resilience w…

A Polarimetry-based Field-deployable Non-interruptive Mirror Soiling Detection Method
The soiling level of heliostat mirrors in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) fields is one of the key factors that significantly influences optical efficiency. State-of-the-art methods of monitoring heliostats soiling levels still face various challenges, including slow speed, labor-intensive operations, resolution and accuracy constraints or interruptions to solar field operations. We present a rapid, cost-effective, and non-intrusive method for mirror soiling detection based on polarimetric imagi…

Result of many months of work - over 15,000 LEDs to make a dim room. For #neotropolis
The triangles on the front are segments of 32 addressable LEDs, but were just solid white most of the time. The window clock is sheets of WS2816 driven by Novastar processor. The columns are RGBW DMX512. (one color per column.)
The columns are laser cut. The mirror pieces are CNC'd with my home…
