Mathematics plays an important role in architecture according to Dr. Nahedh Al-Qemaqchi from the Department of Architecture. Mathematical concepts like proportion, ratio, geometry and patterns can be seen throughout architectural history in many structures from different societies and cultures around the world. These mathematical principles help architects and designers create visually pleasing and functional buildings.

The absence of the architectNahedh Al-Qemaqchi
油
The document discusses the relationship between architectural forms, meaning, and interpretation. It introduces concepts from semiotics such as signifier and signified, and how meanings in architectural forms depend on social and cultural interpretation. The document also discusses how the meaning intention of the architect is eliminated in favor of interpreted symbols, referred to as the "death of the architect." It argues this shift caused the "birth of the audience" who now plays a role in deriving meaning from architectural forms.Concept transformation problems
Concept transformation problemsNahedh Al-Qemaqchi
油
1) Developing strong architectural concepts requires intense effort to integrate new ideas and bring different things together in a creative way, rather than ideas flowing smoothly.
2) Communicating concepts is difficult, both explaining them to others and to oneself. Architects must learn dialogue within their own minds before explaining to others.
3) Receiving audiences for concepts can have different levels of understanding depending on their background, and architects must consider their specific audience. Common tests and elitism can also influence reception of concepts.Anatomy of architectural design concept

The document discusses different types of architectural concepts that can drive the design process. It defines an architectural concept as the idea or thought that forms the foundation of a design project. The document then describes five expressions of architectural concepts: 1) architectural ideas that focus on spatial composition and structure, 2) themes that carry through a design, 3) super organizing ideas like geometric configurations, 4) parti and esquisse diagrams developed in Beaux-Arts schools, and 5) literal translations of original diagrams into finished buildings. Finally, it outlines five types of concepts: analogies, metaphors, essences, problem solving, and ideals.2024 Trend Updates: What Really Works In SEO & Content Marketing

Jain and Buddhist architecture have distinct characteristics, yet they share some similarities due to their origins in ancient India. Here's an overview of both:
Jain Architecture
Jain architecture reflects the religion's emphasis on asceticism, simplicity, and non-violence. Some key features include:
1. Rock-Cut Caves:
Early Jain architecture included rock-cut caves, similar to Buddhist caves.
Examples: Udayagiri and Khandagiri Caves (Odisha), Ellora Jain Caves (Maharashtra).
2. Temples:
Built using marble or sandstone with intricate carvings.
Often located on hilltops.
Temples follow the Nagara style (North India) or Dravidian style (South India).
Examples: Dilwara Temples (Rajasthan), Ranakpur Temple (Rajasthan), Palitana Temples (Gujarat).
3. Manastambha (Pillars of Honor):
Tall, free-standing pillars, often found in temple complexes.
Symbolize Jain spiritual ideals.
4. Towering Shikharas (Spires):
Unlike Hindu temples, Jain spires are often clustered and highly decorative.
Buddhist Architecture
Buddhist architecture evolved from simple stupas to grand monasteries and temples.
1. Stupas:
Dome-shaped structures containing relics of the Buddha.
Example: Sanchi Stupa (Madhya Pradesh).
2. Rock-Cut Caves:
Monasteries and chaitya halls carved into mountains.
Examples: Ajanta and Ellora Caves, Karla and Bhaja Caves (Maharashtra).
3. Viharas (Monasteries):
Simple living quarters for monks, later developed into grand structures.
Example: Nalanda and Vikramshila Universities.
4. Pagodas (in later periods):
Tall, multi-tiered structures found in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia.core of our mission lies the dedicated pursuit of technological advancement, ...

FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE FASHION 2024
The SOILSKIN project aims to create renewable garments integrated with biotechnological components. Inspired by post-earth roamers forced to endure aridity, the wool-cotton blend textile used for the body of our dress is temperature adaptable, sustainable to cultivate and acts as a carbon sink. The design features a 3D printed corset and medieval-style gorget with a degrad辿 coloring, representing desiccation cracks due to global warming. This armour reflects UV rays, but also represents the aestheticization of climate change in dystopian narratives. In our futuristic imagining, the hands-on ritual of ripping and immersing the fabric will not only stimulate ecological restoration, but revive humanity's empathy for the planet's thirst.Promoting Sustainable Development of Hill Areas --Issues and Options

Managing and Rationalising Indias Hill Areas Growth and Development ; Hill areas are known to be different and distinct from plain areas of any country, because of its unique diversity, physiography, structure, topography, morphology, flora, fauna, herbs, fruits, vegetation, bio-diversity, climate, culture, heritage, fragility, vulnerability, nature, natural resource, views, quality of life, lakes, glaciers, mobility, infrastructure, built structures etc. Occupying 17% geographical areas and housing 11% national population, hill areas occupy unique space and importance in the growth story of India, as a nation.
Despite distinct character, role , relevance and importance of rational planned development of hill areas, its overall / integrated development and management has been marginalized. With priority and resources going to the plain areas of the country, hill areas are being subjected to large unplanned, irrational and sub-standard growth and development. Accordingly, hill areas are fast becoming hotbeds of vulnerability, both natural and manmade, facing large number of challenges in terms of earthquakes, landslides and flooding, leading to massive loss of human life, animals, infrastructure, built environment and property. Current scenario of irrational, unplanned and haphazard development in hill areas can be, primarily and essentially, attributed to the absence of adequately trained manpower in the art and science of planning, development and management of the hill areas and giving low priority to rationalising development of hill areas. Having special and specific features, hill areas pose different/unique challenges in planning and development and accordingly need different skill-sets, understanding, expertise and approach to its planning and development. Unfortunately, despite having large area and housing large population, no institution in the country offers specialized course in the planning, development , construction and management of hill areas. It is time for Government of India and hill states of India, to ask all IITs/Nits/SPAs and other private universities, located in the hill states to run dedicate specialized courses for the planning, development and management of hill areas. In addition, Government of India, must enact a law and Constitute a High Powered National, Hill Area Planning and Development Authority , on the pattern of NCR Delhi , comprising of representatives of Government of India, hill states and experts from the related fields, under the overall Chairmanship of Minister-in Charge Hill States with Ministers of hill states, Chief Secretaries of Hill States as members , to define the agenda and roadmap for the integrated growth and development of hill states of the country. The Authority should be mandated to prepare the Regional plan of the entire Himalayan Region and provide framework for the states to draw its own Regional Plan. This would help in not only ensuring integrated growth

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
油
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying its good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation thats least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state theyre comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdf

Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.Skeleton Culture Code

Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.PEPSICO Presentation to CAGNY Conference Feb 2024

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
