'(Un)richtige Aufnahme': Renaissance sculpture and the visual historiography of art history by Johnson, GA

“…For instance, Wölfflin's highly influential pairs of formalist terms for analysing works of art published in 1915 in his Kunstgeschichtliche Grundbegriffe may well have emerged from his close consideration of photographs of sculpture, a suggestion that will be discussed in greater detail below.3 This essay follows Wölfflin's lead in using the visual reproduction of Italian Renaissance sculpture by canonical figures such as Donatello, Michelangelo and their contemporaries to explore the implications of one of the central features of art history: while art historians ostensibly study things, in practice, they often look at images of things more than at the things themselves. …”

Designing (with) Trees: Active Agents in Architectural Production by Garinois, Laura-India

“…Through extensive dialogue with experts and stakeholders dedicated to this cause, the thesis identifies loopholes within existing laws and institutional frameworks, leading to the development of a tree appraisal system that employs alternate representations of trees that encourage new ways of valuing their role within architectural thinking and production. The exploration examines how a more nuanced collaboration with trees in design processes can enhance the value of architecture, and how design can in turn contribute to the protection of trees. …”

Higher-order Dirac semimetal in a photonic crystal by Wang, Zihao, Liu, Dongjue, Teo, Hau Tian, Wang, Qiang, Xue, Haoran, Zhang, Baile

“…Numerical results on the band structure show that the designed three-dimensional photonic crystal is able to host two fourfold Dirac points, which are connected in the momentum-space projections via higher-order hinge states localized at the hinge. The higher-order topology can be characterized by the topological invariant χ(6) at different values of k_z . …”
