ABSTRACT
alt'ai is an agent-based simulation inspired by aesthetics, culture and environmental conditions of the Altai mountain region on the borders between Russia, Kazakhstan, China and Mongolia. It is set into a scenario of a remote automated landscape populated by sentient machines, where biological species, machines and environments autonomously interact to produce unforeseeable visual outputs. It poses a question of designing future machine-to-machine authentication protocols that are based on the use of images encoding agent behavior. Also, the simulation provides rich visual perspective on this challenge. The project pleads for a heavily aestheticized approach to design practice and highlights the importance of productively inefficient and information redundant systems.

Phenology of vegetation in Southern England from Envisat MERIS terrestrial chlorophyll index MTCI data
Given the close association between climate change and vegetation response, there is a pressing requirement to monitor the phenology of vegetation and understand further how its metrics vary over space and time. This article explores the use of the ...
