Combine World with Bone health
Integrated Human Practice connects the world and our project. Inspired by the bone disease of old people, our project centers on osteoporosis and calcium absorption to constitute Bone Appetite. We constantly improve our design and execution by the feedbacks of public engagement, to make sure our project is good and responsible for the old, the whole human, the world. We compete for both the Silver Medal criterion #3 and the Best Integrated HP prize with this page.
Outline and Overview
Figure 1. Integration of Human Practice and Bone Appetide project
Social surveys and Public engagement are the core of our Integrated Human Practices. When we gained our inspiration for bone health, we turned to social surveys and the critical stakeholders for the priority. Besides, picture and design our whole project according to their feedbacks.
Social Surveys
Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, our team specially design an online questionnaire to do relevant social surveys. Due to our care about bone health and osteoporosis, we used widely social study to investigate public awareness and dig the potential need. For the old who has a hard availability of smartphone and the Internet, we visit the elderly community and senior home under the premise of keeping enough social distance and well protective measures.
Figure 2. The questionnaire of social surveys
Public general knowledge
The online surveys mainly direct at the people under 60 years old. We analyzed their knowledge of osteoporosis and daily calcium supplement situation. The result showed that the public has a strong awareness of osteoporosis and bone health along with the growing of age. For respondents aged 40 to 60, more than half of them are taking or have taken calcium supplements health care products.

Interviews with old people
We believe the best suitable way to know the awareness message from the old is talking face to face. Connected with the largest student public-service association of Fudan University, we cooperated with “The Home of Elderly” project, which aims at satisfy the need of the old. We interviewed dozens of aged people over 60 years old in a Shanghai elderly community. Then we were surprised by their extremely low awareness of osteoporosis and lack of calcium supplement.
Figure 5. Our teammate interview the old in the community
The series of effective surveys provide us the reality of public awareness of calcium supplements and reveal the elderly’s problem. The evidence from the statistics analysis helped us to unearth the education need of the elderly. Specially, we came up with an idea of educating the younger generation and instructing them to educate their grandparents.
Bone health is a serious problem for the old. They have a severe need for Calcium supplements. We wanted to know the current treatment of osteoporosis and everyday health care products for Calcium supplement in this case. We carried our thought to interview several key stakeholders and discuss the method to achieve them. Given the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we took action mainly in online form.
Online Public Engagement
Dr. Dongying Qiu and Weiying Ren
Deputy Chief Physician of Geriatrics Department, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University.We consulted clinical physicians about the current osteoporosis treatment situation and FRAX (WHO Fracture Risk Assessment Tool), which is considered underestimating the Chinese population’s risk. They provided us plenty of important messages.
First, the consultation rate of osteoporosis was quite low, owing to the old’s low awareness.
Second, different assessment tools match various application scope. Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of primary osteoporosis provided by the Chinese Society of Osteoporosis and Bone Mineral Research are used in the clinic but still has question and limitation.
What’s more, we exhibited our project design and education for older people to them, which gained great admiration. Dr.Qiu shared his own educational experience to instruct us. He suggested we should be careful with our expression, which needs to be scientific.
Dr. Wei Hong
Deputy Chief Physician of Osteoporosis Department, East China Hospital affiliated to Fudan UniversityDr. Hong is a professor in the area of osteoporosis who also makes an effort to educate patients. We discussed the design of the assessment tool and how to improve the current treatment and recovery method. Dr.Hong pointed out the self-assessment tool's difficulty because of the lack of a database that big enough. We learned that the community is the most effective way to carry out education and recovery introduction. The direct contact with the old helps continuous supervision of treatment progress.
The pool assessment tool and low osteoporosis rate reminded us of the difficulty for the old's bone health. To better guarantee more comprehensive bone health, we tried to achieve an effective Calcium supplement method. We analyzed the current way and relevant health care products market. We came up with some questions and existed difficulty:
- Patients usually forget to take supplements, especially for the old.
- Calcium absorption rate drops as the amount of calcium intake increases.
Current market is in urgent need of a supplement method that ensures a high calcium absorption rate over a long period of time. This will avoid frequent intake of a large amount of supplement pills and the precipitation of calcium oxalate. We decided to design a high and sustainable calcium absorption nutrition.
Senior home staff and care workers
Xinguang Senior Home, ShanghaiIn Xinguang senior home, they have nearly 100 elders aged 60 to 100. We interviewed their staff about the bone health of the old. They reflected several severe fractures caused by osteoporosis and pointed their general bad bone health.
Prof. Jinzhong Lin
School of Life Sciences Fudan UniversityWe discussed with Professor Lin, who is engaged in prokaryotic expression work at the Fudan University Academy of Sciences. The concept of quorum sensing system described was proposed by Fudan 2019. To help engineered bacteria be competitive enough in the intestine, MccB17 needed better expressed. We thought about using the high-copy plasmids to express MccB17, but they are more challenging to regulate and respond sensitively and extensively to increase engineered bacteria's expression burden.
We designed a peptide (CaAP) containing a series of short peptides that can promote calcium absorption. We let probiotics express and secrete this peptide in the intestine to promote calcium absorption in the intestine.
Prof. Lin suggested us to use low-copy plasmids to reduce the expression burden of engineered bacteria. We tried to keep the main part of MccB17 (McbABCD) a relatively low expression and high express the immune part (McbEFG) to achieve high secretion of MccB17.
Collaboration
We collaborate with team TJU held an online summer camp for high school students to introduced the relevant principles and concepts of synthetic biology and shared the concept of iGEM as well as our project. More details at /Team:Fudan/Collaborations.
Model
We establish two models: quorum sensing process and Kill Switch. We refer to the model and data of 2019Fudan team and use the random process to describe it more clearly to model the quorum sensing process in stages and levels. In the kill switch section, we use the 19BNU team’s data, improve the logistic equation, adjust the promoter properties, and make a sensitivity analysis. We can see good results through it. More details at /Team:Fudan/Model.
Kill Switch design
We contacted Mr. Feng in BNU, a member of 19BNU-China and very experienced in kill switches, discussing the kill switch and safety issue of antibiotics resistance gene design.
We discussed whether the glucose-starvation promotor (BBa_K3036003 from 19BNU-China) would be a suitable response system for our kill switch and hope to obtain their plasmids as a control group directly to save time for constructing it from the beginning. Mr. Feng didn’t consider glucose concentration as a distinct signal to trigger glucose response that existed both inside and outside the body. The difference between the two conditions was not very significant. And he also recommended we search some literature on toxin/antitoxin systems. They probably were ideal candidates for carrying eliminating function.
After search the advantages of the toxin/antitoxin system, we decided to undergo an overhaul of our kill switch. This consultation helped us summarize the idea of designing a kill switch that kill switch circuit can be divided into two core components: judging whether bacteria leave the set condition and the other component to kill the bacteria when it leaves the set condition.
Antibiotics resistance genes encoded on a plasmid can transfer to the host’s intestinal flora and hurries the development of antibiotic-resistant strains. To improve our product’s safety factor, we wanted to insert our genetic circuits into the genome to inhibit the horizontal transfer. Mr. Feng told us that verifying genome insertion in experiments would take a significant amount of time and was unlikely to be done within a few months. Using plasmids in the experimental stage is still a preferable way. He commended that multi-copy insertion could be designed as the final form of the product.
Education
Educate the old through younger generation.
Educating the elderly helps the old keep health and protects them from fraud and mis-information. We used a previous unexplored education approach to educate biologic knowledge to the old. Our main strategy is educating the younger generation and instructing them how to educate their grandparents. Compared with traditional education strategies, our approach offers emotional support from the younger generation and is comfortable for the old.In addition, we combined osteoporosis prevention with traditional Chinese art Crosstalk, and taught it to the old living in a nursing home. In summary, we made brave and compelling attempts to implement science communication between the younger generation and the long-neglected social communities - the old.
To educate the youth, we held online summer camps for high school students to pass on aged care, in addition to synthetic biology which we have been teaching in the past several years. We developed an online audio course on basic biology knowledge, which could been listened by both the youth and the old.
More details at /Team:Fudan/Education.
Commercialization analysis
We made the market investigations and pitched our commercial plan to potential commercial investors. During these interactions, we improved our existing design for CaAP, and we came up with the CaAsst test strip product, which later got support by our pilot experiments. More details at /Team:Fudan/Entrepreneurship.
1. Commercial consult. We contacted factories about our product's cost, more specifically, about the cost of producing pills from lab benches to packages ready for the market. Wescheduled several in-person and online appointments with professional investors in the biochemical industry and corresponded with them back and forth to polish our business plan. We also obtained a letter of intent from them, paving ways for future collaboration. Besides, we asked for advice from peers in the Fudan school of management about our marketing strategies and shaped our business plan to target our potential users more effectively.
2. CaAsst developing. To obtain more professional feedback and get our projects wider public known, we participated in the Fanhai Bei innovation competition and won a third-class prize. According the judges' feedback, we modified our business model and found that older people in China lacked an easy method to assess their calcium status. Therefore, we developed our Measurement project CaAsst to provide a solution for the old people to measure their blood calcium status in a portable way. More details at /Team:Fudan/Measurement
Summary
Our project focus on reducing the impact of osteoporosis, trying search the way to making world better.
- Analyzed the whole ages surveys to investigate public awareness and the current suffering situation of the old people.
- Interviewed various stakeholders, including clinicians, professors and care workers to gather the limits of current treatments and used these feedbacks to design our project.
- Connected with members of 19BNU and 19Fudan to gain their valuable insights and outline our wet lab experiments.
- Made the market investigations and pitched our commercial plan to potential commercial investors.
- In order to educate the aged people more effectively, we communicated with care workers and created instructional materials on care given.
During these interactions, we improved our existing design for CaAP, and we came up with the CaAsst test strip product, which later got support by our pilot experiments.Our team successfully integrated Human Practice to design and improve our Bone Appetite project.

On finding your inner zen in big cities
Coping with crowded places when you’re used to peaceful villages
29 August 2013 | 27 April 2018
braindump learning' zenOriginally posted on Medium.
There have been a lot of love letters to big cities here on Medium recently. I never really understood the love for those busy places, but that should not be a big surprise as we grew up in a relatively small village in Belgium. Our country must be one of the smallest in the world — you can drive from one edge to the other in less than 2 hours (excluding traffic jams of course).
And yet Brussels, the capital city of Europe, lies within Belgium. When I worked there, I used to hate that city — but for the wrong reasons. I was one of the thousand usual daily train travellers, taking the same route to and from work every single day. When you pass the central station, you need to work your way through a relatively dirty street with beggars and a lot of puke pools (horray for late night city clubs). I actually did not know Brussels at all, until I started exploring the center on my own at noon.
Every large city has it’s multicultural neighbourhoods which you might not want to pass at a certain time, but limiting yourself to only those areas narrows your vision of the city. So I found an organic bakery which only sells sourdough bread (an exception to the rule in Belgium). I discovered little tea shops or jummy places to eat. I actually started to enjoy strolling through the center.
Sensory input overload
As much as I liked discovering special places in Brussels, I was also very glad I could go home at 17H PM, and enjoy the peace of the environment where we live. It’s not exactly easy to describe, but I sometimes have the feeling that visiting a large city drains me in some way. There is so much to see, there are so many people in such a small place, after a while it’s difficult to concentrate. It feels like I’m getting a sensor overload, and I need to retreat, to a silent hotel room or back to the office. And I’m not the only one feeling that way, as my girlfriend actually made me think about this while she explained there was “too much info coming at once”. That might sound reasonable as she grew up in the same neighbourhood as I did.
100 meters from our home, following a hiking trail.
Curious. My sister currently lives in Australia and loves big cities and a skyscraper view. Her opinion on our local (little) town completely changed as she’s used to something much bigger now. When she visits us, she’s usually bored quite quickly — even if there’s enough to do locally. Of course everything has to be seen in perspective.
I do admit living in a big city makes things a lot easier (and more difficult) but I’d miss the peace and quietness. As much as I like Steven Johnson’s concept of “liquid networks” from “where good ideas come from”, I still think I wouldn’t be fit to live right in the middle of it.
Maybe it’s my introvert part speaking. Most people who know me well would say I’m an extravert who isn’t scared of saying what he thinks. I’ve been thinking about these personality stereotypes a lot lately, and a colleage gave me another piece of the puzzle. She suggested that I spend a lot of energy on my extravert part at work, and to regain that energy I need my quiet, peaceful time. I call it being “work sociable” — in my spare time I’m not social at all, it drains too much energy. I don’t have the feeling that I’m required to behave like that during the day, but maybe my work as teamcoach requires me to do so without me even noticing.
So maybe I could conclude that the way I see big cities shifts as my job changes? Never thought about that. Thank you Medium!


The structure editor is used to draw chemical molecules, substructure fragments, reactions and simple drawing objects like text, boxes, etc. Its functionality changes depending on the kind of object(s) being edited. Thus, the atom mapping tool is only available, when a reaction is edited. Query feature dialogs only open, when a substructure is edited, etc.
Hot-keys allow to quickly change atoms and bonds or to attach common groups to an atom. When the mouse pointer is moving near to an atom or bond then the atom or bond is automatically highlighted, indicating that a mouse click or typing hot-keys will affect the highlighted atom or bond.
| Hot-Key | Type | Name | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 'Delete' | Atoms Bonds Mapping |
Delete | Deletes highlighted and selected atoms and bonds. When a reaction is edited and the mapping tool is selected, then pressing the 'Delete' key removes all atom mapping from the reaction. |
| '1','2','3', ... | Atom | Atom Chain | Attaches a chain of 'n' carbon atoms to the highlighted atom provided that its valence maximum is not exceeded. |
| '+', '-' | Atom | Charge Modifiers | Increases or decreases the charge of the highlighted atom. |
| '.' | Atom | Radical State Modifier | Adds or removes a single electron to change the atom's radical state. |
| ':' | Atom | Radical State Modifier | Add or removes two electrons and toggles between singlet and triplet states. |
| '?' | Atom | Connection Point | Converts an atom into a connection point of a substituent or building block. |
| 'q' | Atom, Bond |
Query Feature Dialog | If a substructure query is edited then this key opens a query feature dialog, which allows to specify additional atom/bond conditions for the substructure search. |
| '1','2','3','0' | Bond | Bond Order | Changes the highlighted bond into a single, double, triple, or coordinate (0-order) bond. |
| 'u' | Bond | Up Bond | Changes the highlighted bond into 'up' stereo bond, if at least one of the associated atoms is a relative or absolute stereo center. |
| 'd' | Bond | Down Bond | Changes the highlighted bond into 'down' stereo bond, if at least one of the associated atoms is a relative or absolute stereo center. |
| 'c' | Bond | Cross Bond | Changes the highlighted bond into a double bond with unknown configuration. |
| 'v','4','5','6','7' | Bond | Annelate Ring | Annellates a new saturated n-membered ring the highlighted bond ('v' adds a 3-membered ring). |
| 'b' | Bond | Annelate Benzo | Annellates a new benzene ring to the highlighted bond. |
While the mouse pointer is near an atom such that the atom is highlighted, you may type one or multiple keys to change the atom label or to attach common substituent. The sequence of typed keys is shown in the editor. If it is recognized to represent a valid atom label, then the key string is shown in black. If it is recognized as a known substituent or protecting group name, then it is shown in blue. The key string is shown in gray, if it can be extended by adding more keys to a known group name. Finally, it is shown in red, if no valid completion to a known name is possible. Once a black or blue color indicates that your key string is recognized, you may move the mouse away or type Enter to actually convert the atom into the new type or to automatically attach the recognized substituent.
For the sake of convenience atom labels or group names can be typed using lower case letters only. Dashes in group names may also be omitted. E.g. typing 'n' followed by 'a' converts the atom to a sodium atom and typing 'otolyl' attaches an ortho-Tolyl group.
Known group names are: Ac, Alloc, Allyl, Am, Benzoyl, Benzyl, Boc, BOM, Bn, Bs, Bt, Btm, Bu, Bz, Bzh, Bzl, BzOM, Cbz, Cy, cyclobutyl, cycloheptyl, cyclooctyl, cyclopentyl, cyclopropyl, Dan, DEAE, DEIPS, DMIPS, DMPM, DMPS, DMTr, DNP, DNS, DPIPS, DPTBS, DTBMS, Et, Fmoc, i-Am, i-Bu, i-Pr, Im, m-Tolyl, MDIPS, MDPS, MEM, MMTr, MOM, MPM, MTM, Me, Mes, Ms, N3, n-Am, n-Bu, n-Pr, neo-Am, nitro, NO2, Np, o-Tolyl, p-Tolyl, PMB, PMBM, PNB, PPi, Ph, Phenyl, Pht, Piv, Poc, Pr, Pv, s-Am, s-Bu, s-Butyl, SEM, SES, t-Am, t-Bu, t-Butyl, TBDMS, TBDPS, TBMPS, TBS, TDS, TFA, THF, THP, TIPS, TMS, Tf, Thexyl, Tos, Troc, Trt, Ts, Xyl.
To be compatible with ChemDraw, 'l' is recognized as chlorine atom. If you are editing a sub-structure, you may use 'x' to convert an atom into an atom list containing all halogene atoms.
Chemical structures are drawn by selecting an appropriate tool and applying it while moving, clicking and dragging the mouse pointer over the drawing area. While the selection of a tool has no immidiate effect on the drawn structure, pressing a button does. Currently available buttons allow to clean up atom coordinates or to revert the most recent structure change.
| Button or Tool | Name | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Atom Tools | The Atom Tools cover atoms frequently used in organic chemistry. After selecting one of these tools, you may place new atoms by clicking into the empty space or change existing atom by clicking onto them. | |
| Atom Detail Tool | When this tool is selected and an atom is clicked with the left mouse button while pressing the 'Ctrl'-key, then a dialog window open that allows to specify an unusual/custom atom label, a specific isotop, an abnormal valence and/or a radical state. When closing the dialog the clicked atom is changed accordingly. The dialog settings are remembered and applied to any other clicked atom, as long as the tool is selected. | |
| Charge Tools | These tools let you assign charges to atoms. Multiple clicks on the same atom will increase or decrease the charge by 1. The Osiris Structure Editor assumes the presence of implicit hydrogens at any charged or non charged atoms to meet the atom's default valence. However, implicit hydrogens are only shown on hetero atoms. | |
| Ring Tools | After selecting one of the predefined rings, one may create a new ring or attach a ring to an existing bond or atom to create annelated ring systems or a spiro compound, respectively. | |
| Bond Tools | Bond Tools allow you to create new bonds and to change existing bonds concerning their order or stereo-orientation. By clicking into the open space you create a new bond of the selected type including two carbon atoms. Clicking onto an existing atom will attach a new carbon. Dragging the mouse from one atom to another one will just connect these atoms or increment the bond order between them, if they were already connected. If the plain single bond tool is selected, bonds may be multiply clicked to cycle through the possible bond orders. Where reasonable, it also toggles between double bonds with known or unknown configuration, the so-called cross bond. When using stereo bonds please consider that the pointed tip of the bond should always point to the stereo center. | |
| Chain Tool | The Chain Tool provides the fastest way to draw aliphatic carbon chains in zig-zag orientation. With the selected Chain Tool click into the empty space or at an existing atom and drag the mouse to create a new zig-zag chain and flip its orientation. | |
| ESR Tools | The editor supports the enhanced stereo recognition (ESR) introduced by Molecular Design Ltd. with IsisDraw V2.5. The ESR Tools allow to define for every stereo center, whether it is an absolute one or if it belongs to a group of stereo centers that have the drawn, but relative configuration. For any group of relative stereo centers one may define that the drawn and the inverse configurations are present, i.e. that we have a racemic situation concerning the group members. This is indicated by green stereo bonds and an ampersand '&' at the stereo centers. Likewise one may define groups of relative stereo centers that contain either the drawn configuration or the opposite one. Stereo centers of such a group are indicated by blue stereo bonds and the word 'or' at the stereo centers. In addition to the '&' or 'or' indicators group numbers show which stereo centers belong to the same group. | |
| Unknown Configuration Tool | This symbol is used to denote an unknown stereo configuration at a chiral center. | |
| Cleanup Button | A cleanup will generate new coordinates of an existing molecule. It rearranges bond and atom positions in order to have a proper 2D structure. If a part of the molecule or reaction is selected, the cleanup will retain the relative orientation of the non-selected atoms. | |
| Lasso Pointer Tool | This tools allows you to select multiple atoms and bonds to rearrange, rotate, resize, delete or duplicate at the same time. Just drag the mouse pointer around the atoms of interest. Selected atoms and bonds are shown in red. By pressing the control key you switch to the rectangular selection mode and the shift key lets you add atoms to the current selection. By clicking onto an atom or bonds and dragging the mouse one may more it or all selected atoms, if the clicked one is selected. When pressing the shift key while dragging a selected fragment, an automatically created copy of the selected fragment is dragged. Where the editor needs to support multiple molecules, e.g. if a reaction is edited, then every reactant and product is indicated by a large light gray indicator in the background ('A', 'B', 'P1', etc.). Where independent fragments shall be treated as one molecule, e.g. anion and kation of one salt, one must locate those fragments close enough that there is only one indicator behind them. If a reaction or molecule query is edited, then one may double click an atom or a set of selected atoms to open a query feature dialog to specify additional conditions for a fragment to match in a substructure search. The same applies to individual or multiple selected bonds. If the edited object is not a query then double clicking of an atom or bond will just select the entire fragment. | |
| Delete Tool | It allows you to delete individual atoms or bonds or selected parts of the molecule. Selected areas may also be removed by pressing the delete key from the keyboard. | |
| Zoom and Rotate Tool | This tool allows to zoom or rotate the entire drawing or a selected subset. Just click at the intended origin for the rotation or zooming and drag the mouse vertically to zoom or horizontically to rotate. | |
| Mapping Tool | This tool is only available when a reaction is edited. Use this tool to map reactant atoms to the respective product atoms. This is done by clicking on a reactant atom and dragging the mouse onto the corresponding product atom. The editor will acknowledge the link by displaying a red mapping number at both atoms. Afterwards it tries to map atoms in the vicinity automatically and displays green numbers at automatically mapped atoms. Please assign manually as many reactant-product pairs as are needed that the entire reaction is mapped completely and correctly. Pressing the 'Delete' key while this tool is selected removes all mapping from the reaction. | |
| Text Tool | The text tool may only be selected in certain situations. If it is selected one may use it to place text elements directly into the drawing. These text elements will be integral part of the drawing and, thus, move, resize and rotate with the molecules or reaction. |

## 02.01.2020
3 pathways: 1. artistic properties of code? elegance, simplicity, density (it is beautiful for something), double-coding 2. aestheticizing of code (beautiful in itself, with clarity, symmetry, harmony) 3. staging of code
literature can be seen as two things: - diction - fiction
code is a fiction of the world, but how can the diction of code be beautiful?
TODO: - look up the criteria for judging code that appear in something like the linux kernel - what artistic metaphors can we apply to code (e.g. author, reader, reception, style)
we can make a parallel between enunciation (bakhtine) and programming langauges (python, js, etc.), in that programming languages are themselves a sort of materiality
code is the only language that is executable -> find what are the formal/aesthetic features that surround (i.e. precede and follow from) this executability… i.e. the syntax and grammar of executability
camille paloque berges focuses on the mode of production of these works (the network), and i would like to focus on the mode of representation of these works (the computation)
the rhetorical uses of programming languages (code is more and more identified, less and less obfuscated, so there is room for closer examination)
what kind of linearity does code have? how does it requalify our understanding of linearity?
the differences between code and computation? gap between execution and expression (or the other way around)?
definition of software??
use of mental models
summary of contributions: - source code poetry is always acknowledged, as the creativity in software, but strongly limited to perl and C - useful concepts (double coding) - esoteric languages a little less - human and machine are mutually influenced, in speech and thought - separation between “art programming” and “regular programming” as sharing different sets of aesthetics - - could “art programming” be a gateway towards opening up the definition of literature - - paying attention to “art programming” allows to pay attention to programming in general
which aspect of this literature do i feel closest to?
katherine hayles - 3 worldviews [literature, cybernetics], includes code within a world-making system of its own, in relation with speech and writing. it is the worldview of computation (to be developed). code works in specific ways (and she develops it through 9 points that aren’t unlike hamlet on the holodeck), and therefore should be taken into account when examining texts. the closest that she gets to is something following the specificity of object-oriented programming (see also: galloway).
contribution: the close analysis of code as a means of literary expression, and explanation of how it stands differently than speech and writing in saussure and derrida’s conceptions, and the contribution to code as a literary and narrative event. she also touches upon some interesting ideas of materiality, which is making me think that one could see specific programming languages as a material
maurice black - the art of code [literature, computer science] initiates the idea of a cross between programming and literature, and assesses that programming is closer to modernism than postmodernism (which i agree to some extent)
alan sondheim - codework [art, literature], an introduction and a typology of codeworks as the interplay between machine and human languages.
contributions: speech integrates code to make it more machine-like, but how does code integrate speech/writing to make it more human-like? and not just in terms of EFFICIENCY
florian cramer - words made flesh [art history, cultural studies]: he puts the accent on pre-existing practices when it comes to literary text, by linking objects and texts today to practices and approaches from before. he integrates source code into a bigger structure, a gradient of all formal systems from binary/assembly to english and hebrew. source code in 50s->10s programming languages is only a small subset of this.
contribution: brings in a typology of the poetics of formally executable code, as well as the construction of a philosophico-epistemological framework. (i.e. how people who came before tried to think about how and why of formal systems)
geoff cox alex mclean - speaking code [political science, engineering, art], explains how programming is a political act by looking at it through the lens of the speech-act, the pronounciation, and therefore the subjective, local, temporary moment of happening of the software. they invoke political philosophers (marx, arendt) to show how software lives in a bigger political ecosystem that (1) cannot be ignored and (2) can be quite effectively addressed.
contribution: approaches code through the deliberate frame of the voice and speech, and therefore integrate cultural/postmodern/almost-feminist approach to the code. they also actually write code snippets to demonstrate their points.
various artists - 10PRNT(CHR(220.5+RND(1)))GOTO10 [software studies], a close analysis of each part of the code (semantic and conceptual, both).
contribution: a style exercise of how close-reading of source code could/should look like.
camille paloque berges - poetique des codes [sociology, literature]: good overview of what was done 10 years ago. particular interest in the social aspect of those practices (network effect, relationship to modes of communication (usenet, bbs) or production (FOSS, GNU)). she does summon de certeau and foucault.
contribution: brings in the mode of existence of the programmers in how they are intertwined with their tools/media and how they try to appropriate them in a similar way that de certeau said. codeworks are a creole language which are however making code appear on the surface but source code submits to human code, which results into an assimilation, and not a fusion.
adrian mckenzie - cutting code [science and technology studies] a thorough analysis of the socio-economical structures in which code is created, acted and received, with several layers (from kernel to large infrastructure and speculative prototypes). however, for a book that talks about code, there are very few lines of actual code. he develops an ontology and says that every programming language is already an ontology (a software ecosystem is a patterning of social relations)
contribution: description of the socio-economical conditions in which software is produced
regarding the corpus: - question about the limitation on corpus: source code poems vs. esolangs vs. everything
what should i read next? things i know: programming language textbooks, and other things like marxist lit crit
gerard genette annette vee - coding literacy

DrawingMode()
语法
DrawingMode(Mode)概要
Change the drawing mode for text and graphics output.
参数
模式 为进一步绘图操作行为。它可以是下列标志的组合：
</br0>
#PB_2DDrawing_Default当绘图开始时使用默认的绘图模式。与具有纯背景显示文本和填充图形形状的。If the current output has an alpha channel, the drawing operations will only modify the color components and leave the alpha channel unchanged.#PB_2DDrawing_Transparent
如果设置了此标志DrawText()函数输出的背景将透明#PB_2DDrawing_XOr
启用 XOR 模式。所有的图形将 XOR'ed 与当前的背景。这种模式不能结合下列 alpha 通道模式。#PB_2DDrawing_Outlined
注： 这种模式不能与PrinterOutput()同时工作。
If this flag is set then shapes will be drawn as outlines only and not filled. This applies to commands such as Circle, Box, etc.Note: The following modes only work with ImageOutput() and CanvasOutput(). They are ignored for all other outputs:
#PB_2DDrawing_AlphaBlendThe drawing operations will be alpha-blended onto the background. The RGBA() command can be used to specify colors with alpha transparency in commands like FrontColor(), Box(), DrawText() etc.#PB_2DDrawing_AlphaClip
The drawing operations will be alpha-blended onto the background like with the #PB_2DDrawing_AlphaBlend mode, with the addition that the alpha channel of the drawing output acts as a mask. This means that areas of the output that are transparent before the blending will also remain transparent afterwards. If the drawing output has no alpha channel then this mode acts just like the #PB_2DDrawing_AlphaBlend mode.#PB_2DDrawing_AlphaChannelThe drawing operations will only modify the alpha channel of the drawing output. All color information is ignored. For example drawing a circle with a color value of RGBA(0, 0, 0, 0) will "cut" a hole into the drawing output by making the circle area fully transparent. If the drawing output has no alpha channel then no drawing will have an effect in this mode.#PB_2DDrawing_AllChannelsThe drawing operations will modify the color channels and the alpha channel of the drawing output. The content of the channels is replaced by the drawing operation without any blending. Drawing in this mode has the same effect as drawing first using the #PB_2DDrawing_Default mode and then drawing the same operation using the #PB_2DDrawing_AlphaChannel mode. If the drawing output has no alpha channel then this mode is equivalent to the #PB_2DDrawing_Default mode.#PB_2DDrawing_Gradient
This mode allows drawing with a gradient instead of a solid color. The gradient shape can be defined with commands such as LinearGradient(), CircularGradient() etc. and the colors used in the gradient can be set with GradientColor(). The color parameters given to the individual drawing commands will be ignored in this mode. This mode can be combined with the above alpha channel modes to have gradients with semitransparent colors.#PB_2DDrawing_CustomFilter
In this mode, the drawing of the pixels can be defined by a custom procedure with the CustomFilterCallback() command. 这允许执行自定义绘制效果同时仍然使用默认功能做实际的绘图。
返回值

HARD EIGHT A film review by David N. Butterworth Copyright 2000 David N. Butterworth
*** (out of ****)
Re-released unceremoniously to cash in on the success--or perhaps more descriptively the ensemble chic--of P.T. Anderson's "Magnolia," "Hard Eight" is writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson's first feature of four years ago about a professional gambler (Philip Baker Hall, the game show host in "Magnolia") with a penchant for taking lost souls under his wing. In the film's opening scene, Sydney (Hall) approaches what appears to be a bum sitting outside a Nevada rest stop and offers to buy him a cup of coffee. After John (John C. Reilly, the cop in "Magnolia") tells his tale of losing his shirt trying to win enough money to pay for his mother's funeral, Sydney offers to take John back to Reno and show him the tricks of the trade. As he showed with his second film "Boogie Nights" (as well as the one with the frogs), Anderson has a staggering knack for snagging top talent and bringing out their best. In addition to Hall and Reilly, who are very good in the film, there are also appearances by Gwyneth Paltrow as a cocktail waitress/hooker named Clementine and Samuel L. Jackson as a nasty piece of work named Jimmy whom the na´ve John befriends against Sydney's better judgment. "Hard Eight" (which, if you're curious, refers to a roll of the dice in craps) is an auspicious debut in the truest sense of the word, an intricate and evocative work filled with Anderson's rich characterizations, huge close-ups, and trademark snappy patter. Can you believe the young upstart actually has the nerve to write Sidney a line of dialogue that begins "My darling Clementine..."? Well he does.

KISSING A FOOL A film review by Matt Williams
RATING: * * out of * * * *
Doug Ellin wrote and directed Kissing a Fool, a hit-and-miss romantic comedy, that, although humorous, is hampered by a bad structure and weak characters.
The story of Kissing a Fool is framed in a flashback, in which a publisher, Linda (Bonnie Hunt), while hosting a wedding at her house, relates to two over-eager wedding guests the story of how the bride and groom got together.
The bride in question is Sam (Mili Avital), an editor who works for Linda. She's currently editing the novel of Jay (Jason Lee), whose best friend is Chicago sportscaster Max Abbott (David Schwimmer). Jay sets up Sam and Max, and before you know it, the couple is engaged to be married.
However, the womanizing Max has doubts about the loyalties of his bride-to-be. He tries to get his pal Jay to seduce her as a test. If she bites, Max will call off the wedding...otherwise, he's found the right girl. Of course, Jay is reluctant, coming off a bad relationship with Natasha (Vanessa Angel), but he soon finds himself falling in love with Sam.
The heart of any romantic comedy is its characters, and Kissing the Fool runs the gamut from good to not so good. In the "good" category: Jason Lee. His is the most developed character in the film, and he handles it well. To top it off, he's funny, and gets most of the film's good lines.
Mili Avital sits somewhere in the middle of the road. Her character is nice, but flavorless. We never learn that much about her, and she doesn't express a strong presence that might transcend her mundane character.
Playing out of type, and without much success, is David Schwimmer. As much as he tries, his suave sportscaster is never quite believable. He's at his best during his "pathetic" moments, or, in other words, when he seems to be in more familiar territory. It just goes to show that a change of pace isn't necessarily good.
And then there's Bonnie Hunt. She barely registers a presence as a minor character throughout the flashbacks, but when she's the narrator, you wish she would just go away. It certainly doesn't help that the entire awkward flashback structure kills the story (for some reason it reveals the answers to the film's central questions right at the beginning). But any time the film begins to gain momentum on its own, WHAM! We're thrust back to Bonnie Hunt and her over-eager guests, and everything falls apart.
The story itself is a bit light. Even without the revealing framework, you can see exactly where the film is going. But the film's saving graces are its humorous moments. There are some wonderful exchanges between characters, and plenty of amusingly awkward situations throughout Kissing a Fool. However, while the humor makes Kissing a Fool palatable, its many flaws keep it from being completely enjoyable.

THE GODFATHER A Film Review Copyright Dragan Antulov 1998
Many years ago, when the author of this review had to rely only on cinemas and television as the source of cinematic knowledge, he was intrigued by the word "godfather", featured in many movies and television shows as the synonym for organised crime. The use of the word didn't stop there - many movies were branded "godfathers" by their distributors, in order to bring the audience hungry for intelligent and spectacular drama about gangster organisations. Fascination with the word and the movie who inspired their use grew with years. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see the first movie before being exposed to the second. Nevertheless, the first seeing of THE GODFATHER was memorable experience indeed - years of waiting actually paid off in a three hours of cinematic feast.
In many ways, THE GODFATHER follows the same pattern of many cinematic classics who used to be made in a time periods or circumstances that aren't here anymore. It was made in a era when the Old Hollywood collapsed, and the new rules hadn't been established. The studios were willing to experiment and to give the movie authors free reign over their projects. One of such authors was Francis Ford Coppola, who made one of the most intimate, yet most universally appealing movies of all times; the movie which earned its cult status by satisfying both the high standards of snobbish critics and the simple needs general audience. The greatness of the movie can't be seen only in a success that followed him in a last quarter of century; it could be even more tangible in a series of references, imitations and hidden remakes created by Coppola's colleagues through the years.
Almost every scene in a movie is memorable, but for many most effective is a beginning - in a dark room, Bonasera (Salvatore Corsitto), Italian undertaker, tells that he believes in America and its values; but only minutes later his speech gives another spin on the beliefs in life, liberty and pursuit of happiness - they shatter confronted with the humiliating and unpunished rape of his daughter. In order to see justice done, Bonasera is forced to ask favour from his godfather, powerful Mafia figure Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando), using the marriage of Don Vito's daughter Connie (Talia Shire) as an opportunity to win over the mobster's heart. That same wedding is a nice opportunity to meet Don Vito's sons, family and friends. Don Vito has three sons - Sonny (James Caan), whose macho temperament is nicely combined with the calm wisdom of his adopted brother and family advisor Tom Hagen (Robert Duvall); hedonistic Fredo (John Cazale); and, finally, college educated Michael (Al Pacino) whose disgust with the violence and crime forced him to leave the family and come to the wedding as a decorated WW2 hero. However, Michael's reluctance to engage in the family business gets tested soon after the wedding. Angered by Don Vito's refusal to engage in narcotic operations, other Mafia families from New York organise the attempt on his life; simply by trying to protect his father, Michael gets drawn in the war and slowly becomes the rising member of his crime organisation.
Since both the real-world Mafia and numerous Italian American organisation actually tried to stop this movie from being made or distributed, it is quite ironic to see THE GODFATHER as a source not of numerous movie cliches that actually portray the Mafia as a social element more benign than in real life (mobsters as devout family men; violence exists only between its members and doesn't affect general and innocent population; opposition to drugs etc.). It is even more surprising to see THE GODFATHER not only as an inspiration to other, less original, filmmakers, but also to the real-world gangsters who tried to imitate the appearance of his main characters. However, although the movie might seem a little bit apologetic towards Mafia, and definitely has insiders' point of view, it still has the flavour of authenticity, necessary for the viewer to have a critical relations towards the characters and their morally questionable actions.
The authenticity of the movie isn't just in some references towards real-life mobsters and mob-related stories and urban legends. Coppola worked very hard to capture the way of life in his native Italian American community, and also invested a lot of effort in order to have his epic story, that takes place in late 1940s and early 1950s, firmly set in that time period through production design, costumes, hairstyles and soundtrack that is well balanced with the original music of Nino Rota, that also became one of the identifying symbols of the movie.
The most memorable element of the movie are its actors. Marlon Brando, almost washed-up in the time when he made THE GODFATHER, gave the performance of his life by playing Vito Corleone - his role was so grand that the actor himself parodied it in THE FRESHMAN. Although obviously shadowed by Brando, the other actors were also impressive. Among them, Al Pacino, who had to work hardest by portraying slow transformation of lead character, shines most brightly and his role of Michael shone the path to his future as one of the best serious movie actors in contemporary American cinema. The calmness of Pacino's character, calmness that crumbles under emotions only in brief moments of family crisis, is so in contrast with the emotional outbursts that would be Pacino's trademark in a years to come.
The other actors might not be in Brando's or Pacino's league, but they benefited from Coppola's good casting and also gave the roles of their life simply by being in this movie, so well-written and directed. The only exception to this is James Caan, who works well with the role given to him, but whose all-American appearance seems a rather out of place with the more or less ethnically pure Italian American cast. Despite that shortcoming (one and perhaps the only in the entire GODFATHER), the cast is really more than impressive, although many actors and actresses later didn't live to the potential indicated by their performance in this movie.
Those who like analysing movies to death would probably ask why THE GODFATHER kept its cult status through the quarter of century. There were many well-made, well-directed and well-acted movies produced in the years before and after, but it seems that only THE GODFATHER stood the test of time and kept the imagination of the future moviegoers. The reason might probably be in the universal subject of the movie; although it shows rather obscure and ethnically isolated phenomenon the messages of THE GODFATHER can be translated on all the worlds languages and applied to other systems in different times and places. The movie portrays both the society and individuals who lost their freedom because they were too insecure or unprepared for responsibility; same as the poor Italian immigrants had to rely on Mafia to overcome the difficulties of New World (like Bonasera in the opening sequence), Michael is forced to join the family because he, despite all his efforts, can't live in a insecure world outside his father's omnipotent shadow. And even when he actually becomes his father (in a brilliant and most memorable last shot), the freedom is lost - omnipotence and freedom are just illusion, because with the power comes both the responsibility and the never ending task of keeping. The story of this movie could have taken place everywhere in the world, and that explains why the people will associate with its characters for many decades to come.
RATING: 9/10 (++++)

BBC Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood's rent boy past to pay for dance lessons
The Strictly judge has talked openly about what life was like before his dancing career began
by Charlotte HadfieldStrictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood is famous for his strict critiques of couples performances on the dance floor.
Craig's comments and harsh criticisms, are often a lot more brutal than that of his fellow judges.
However, defending the feedback he gives to dancers in an interview, the Strictly judge said his comments are meant to help the dancers improve.
During the interview Craig also opened up about his own past as a rent boy which he said helped him to pay for his dance lessons, the Mirror Online reports.
Even the pro dancers take Craig's harsh criticisms to heart with Aljaz admitting he felt "broken" by Craig's comments.
Appearing on It Takes Two with his partner Emma Weymouth the dancer said the words had "broken his heart".
The pair had performed a flapper-style Charleston, which had been praised by most of the judges - apart from Craig.
He called it "lame" and host Zoe Ball questioned Aljaz on how he felt about that.
He said: "Honestly, as a teacher on the show it breaks your heart because you put hours and hours into every single second of the day and all you want to do is execute what you've rehearsed."
But Craig insists his feedback is meant to help dancers improve and in an interview he revealed his past as a rent boy so he could pay for dance lessons.
He told Timmy Alexis Carrington Ward on his Here She Is show: "That's how I paid for my dance lessons. It was a year of dance lessons so add that up darling."
Craig was just 17 when he met a sugar daddy and says he owe the man his success.
He was approached by the man when he was living in Australia as a teenager.
He told Cheltenham Literary Festival: "He said 'I will pay for your classes but you come away with me and we do the dirty'."
Craig had been working as a chef, but says he hated it and credits the man with saving him from the profession.
But he insists he only ever had one client and has never revealed how much he was paid.
Craig said: "It was a year of dance lessons, so add that up.
"It was like a casting couch so it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
"I suppose that could be compared to a lady getting engaged and getting a great big, sparkling Tiffany ring - and then breaking off the engagement but keeping the ring."

Recently I heard of the Google Material Design, the most hot and famous design Bible. So I went through the most part of it on my iPad at some toilet time…
At the first glance, I didn’t pay much attention to what it defines about itself and how to demostrate the essentials of it. Honestly, I don’t even feel like how superior the Google designers represent their thought on the web pages, Instead I like the way less bolder about color sets, richer but no-obvious interactions on user end. I think that is funnier because at one time I am freaking into Online RPG games.  Sorry for any fans of Material Design if you check out this post.
But seems like storys doesn’t end and I was stupid…
Something only when you think of it peace and quiet, of course will changes you mind.
The 3 golden principles that I will add up my explanations:
-
Material is metaphor
In my opinion, a good designer is supposed to be a good lifer.  A simple pump gear, a tiny terrance, a not-that-mess street. All matters contains your understanding of better designs, carefully and sincerely treats our surroundings will inspire ourselfs inside. -
Bold, Graphic, Intentional
New era is coming for younger ages and radical ideas. Well-designed products should not to yield the most thoughts, but cater to the nicest users. The boldness, graphics and lots of intentions means the way of pureness of designer’s heart. It’s difficult to cater for all tastes, always happen. So be yourself, do your beautiful thing you think. I bet that is the best move. That is “A-R-T” all about. -
Motions provides meaning.
I think the most modern elegant web pages means more than rich motions.
Avoiding the overdrawing your “animation credit account”, we better clearify what the product would be on earth or what the final issues need to be solved instead of putting seemingly awesome effects to attract more potentials users. You at least have to care about your original intentions and your current users. Only emphasize on core functionality makes the simpler, neater interface for users.
The reason why I look into the Material Design is not only I guess I have something on design maybe, possible, sort of…(that’s why I also touch wireframing, sketching, A/B testing, etc.), but currently as a developer or engineer(whatever you name it), it really helps me to better understand how the design process goes behind the scenes and I think this might be the more effective way to communicate and collaborate with designers in dev environment. To make good product together, put myself in other’s shoes, it’s always no bad.

Consider a rod element which we will use to compose the macroscopic rod later. Let's assume the rod element has cross-sectional area A, length l_0, Young's Modulus E and density ρ. Here we will consider its steady-state vibration. The analysis we are going to perform is based on no boundary conditions, i.e. the rod is unconstrained at either end.
The rod is modelled by Lagrangian constant strain elements, where the distribution of displacement is linear and only happens along the rod (1D). Each element consists of 2 nodes, where each of then has 1 degree of freedom. As for the analysis, 1 stiffness matrix and 2 mass matrices (consistent and diagonal mass matrices) are listed below for the Lagrangian rod element:
Assuming there are n elements inside the rod, where n = \frac{L}{l_0} , the system now contains (n+1) DoFs, with the following assembled mass and stiffness matrices. Each of them has dimensions (n+1) by (n+1)

The work you'll find linked to this page includes a variety of projects I've developed, either independently or as assignments during my time at Dev Bootcamp, the original immersive web-development training program. These projects demonstrate my proficiency in a wide variety of web development technologies, including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Ruby, Rails, and SQL.
When presenting web pages and applications that can be displayed within this website, I've included a sidebar describing the parameters and purpose of the project, and the technologies used to produce it. When linking to pages or entire sites hosted elsewhere on the web, I've provided a page on this site that describes the project and technologies, along with a link directly to the site.
The source code for all these projects is publicly available at my repository on GitHub. For most projects, you can review the live source code by using the Developer's Tools in your browser. So you can more easily see the quality my work, the source code for these projects has not been minified.

Every module in the expressjs, pillarjs, and jshttp organizations should
have a README file named README.md
. The purpose of the README
is to:
Use the README template to quickly create a new README file.
Badges (optional): At the very top (with no subheading), include any applicable badges, such as npm version/downloads, build status, test coverage, and so on. Badges should resolve properly (not display a broken image).
Possible badges include: - npm version:
[![NPM Version][npm-image]][npm-url]
- npm downloads:
[![NPM Downloads][downloads-image]][downloads-url]
- Build
status: [![Build Status][travis-image]][travis-url]
- Test
coverage:
[![Test Coverage][coveralls-image]][coveralls-url]
- Tips:
[![Gratipay][gratipay-image]][gratipay-url]
Summary: Following badges, provide a one- or two-sentence
description of what the module does. This should be the same as the
npmjs.org blurb (which comes from the description property of
package.json
). Since npm doesn’t handle markdown for the
blurb, avoid using markdown in the summary sentence.
TOC (Optional): For longer READMEs, provide a table of contents that has a relative link to each section. A tool such as doctoc makes it very easy to generate a TOC.
Optionally, include a section of one or two paragraphs with more high-level information on what the module does, what problems it solves, why one would use it and how. Don’t just repeat what’s in the summary.
Required. This section is typically just:
But include any other steps or requirements.
NOTE: Use the sh
code block to make the shell command display
properly on the website.
Provide complete API documentation.
Formatting conventions: Each function is listed in a 3rd-level heading
(###
), like this:
### Function_name(arg, options [, optional_arg] ... )
Options objects
For arguments that are objects (for example, options object), describe the properties in a table, as follows. This matches the formatting used in the Express API docs.
| Property | Description | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
Name of the property in monospace . |
Brief description | String, Number, Boolean, etc. | If applicable. |
If all the properties are required (i.e. there are no defaults), then you can omit the default column.
Instead of very lengthy descriptions, link out to subsequent paragraphs for more detailed explanation of specific cases (e.g. "When this property is set to ‘foobar’, xyz happens; see <link to following section >.)
If there are options properties that are themselves options, use
additional tables. See
trust proxy
and etag
properties.
Every README should have at least one example; ideally more. For code
samples, be sure to use the js
code block, for proper display
in the website, e.g.:
What tests are included.
How to run them.
The convention for running tests is npm test
. All our
projects should follow this convention.
Names of module “owners” (lead developers) and other developers who have contributed.
Link to the license, with a short description of what it is, e.g. “MIT” or whatever. Ideally, avoid putting the license text directly in the README; link to it instead.


Japan’s Aso: Tax revenue for FY19 may be smaller than expected
by Dhwani MehtaJapanese Finance Minister Taro Aso is back on the wires now, via Reuters, noting that tax revenue for FY19 may be smaller than expected and below JPY 62 tln.
Aso said that he is not sure on how to fill shortfall in tax revenues, when asked of possibility of issuing more deficit-covering bonds.
Earlier today, while speaking in the parliament, he said that the government wants to decide size of economic measures based on macro conditions, typhoon damage.

Chocolate truffles are a decadent treat at any time but this Easter version is irresistible.
For the ganache, put the milk or cream, spices and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Remove the spiced milk from the heat and strain through a fine sieve onto the chopped chocolate. Whisk until smooth, then add the brandy and whisk again. Pour into a plastic container and refrigerate for an hour, or until set.

For the coating, place the cocoa powder, icing sugar, cinnamon and ground nutmeg into a bowl.
Melt and temper the dark chocolate by breaking the chocolate into small, even pieces and gently melting it in a bowl over a saucepan of hot, not boiling, water. Place a cook’s thermometer into the chocolate and continue to heat until it reaches 43C/110F. Remove from the heat and cool to 35C/95F. Now it is ready to use.
Using your fingers, dip each truffle in the melted, tempered chocolate and drop into the cocoa powder mixture, rolling until the truffle is completely coated. Set aside to cool on a plate.
Eat the truffles at room temperature, so they are very soft inside.
