Feral horses and cattle create more resilient nature, rewilding study reveals
Protected natural areas across Europe are changing. Climate change, with rising temperatures and heavy rainfall, is turbocharging the growth of shrubs and trees, choking the flowers and insects that need the light and heat of open spaces. Traditionally, this scenario prompts nature managers to reach for chainsaws and brush cutters to keep the landscape open. But researchers at Aarhus University and the Natural History Museum, Aarhus, Denmark, can now show that horses and cattle represent a more…

Shortly after the war in Gaza began in 2023,
Bellingcat introduced a free tool authored by University College London lecturer and Bellingcat contributor, Ollie Ballinger,
that was able to estimate the number of damaged buildings in a given area.
This helped monitor and map the scale of destruction across the territory as Israel’s military operation progressed. 
Bellingcat is now introducing an updated version of the open source tool
— called the Iran Conflict D…

Video Recordings, From Speaker Series to Open Access Repository
There are lifecycles of stories and lifecycles of storing recordings, and they live in cycle with ecosystems. This article features a series of environmental knowledge holders’ conversations about teachings, ecologies, and the recordings of their stories. Each cyclical process relies on an interchange between the content and the context of how that information has been shared or will be shared in the future. Librarians and coordinators of the speaker series are also in conversation here. The …

On March 9th I’m helping launch AI Foundations for Educators, a 5-week online course that goes beyond workshop-level knowledge to guide teachers and school staff in developing a personalized framework for adapting classrooms to AI.
It’s a pilot module for a planned online certificate on generative AI; would count as credit toward that graduate credential. Open to anyone with a BA.

A low-cost, open-source maskless photolithography stepper for microfabrication
Photolithography is a key part of modern semiconductor process flows, and photolithography steppers have been used for decades to achieve precise patterning for device fabrication. However, these tools are often large and expensive, which restricts their use to industry and well-funded university laboratories. In this paper, we propose a $3000 maskless photolithography stepper that is affordable, open-source, and easy to assemble. The stepper, which uses a Digital Light Processing (DLP) project…

🦾 Shapeshifting materials could power next generation of soft robots

Shapeshifting materials could power next generation of soft robots
McGill University engineers have developed new ultra-thin materials that can be programmed to move, fold and reshape themselves, much like animated origami. They open the door to softer, safer and more adaptable robots that could be used in medical tools that gently move inside the body, wearable devices that change shape on the skin or smart packaging that reacts to its environment.
