Words Made Flesh

Executable code existed centuries before the invention of the computer in magic, Kabbalah, musical composition and experimental poetry. These practices are often neglected as a historical pretext of contemporary software culture and electronic arts. Above all, they link computations to a vast speculative imagination that encompasses art, language, technology, philosophy and religion. These spec...

Woven Turbo Codes

A new code construction namely woven turbo codes, is presented , which is a variation of woven convolutional codes. Parallel encoders (turbo codes 2]) can be considered as a special case of woven turbo encoders, where only one outer and inner encoder is used. However, woven turbo codes with a larger number of outer codes yield higher minimum distances than turbo codes with random permutations.

Multifunctional graphene woven fabrics

Tailoring and assembling graphene into functional macrostructures with well-defined configuration are key for many promising applications. We report on a graphene-based woven fabric (GWF) prepared by interlacing two sets of graphene micron-ribbons where the ribbons pass each other essentially at right angles. By using a woven copper mesh as the template, the GWF grown from chemical vapour depos...

Transferring load to flesh.

Prosthetics soft tissue trauma is attacked with a combination of theoretical and experimental tools . A novel socket design results, accentuating flesh stress relief at the socket brim . Currently, the novel socket has been fitted to two subjects with long histories of stump trauma ; field test results are not yet available.
