That Uncertain Voice:Voice-as-Skin
Based on Zeynep Bulut’s book, Building a Voice: Sound, Surface, Skin (Goldsmiths Press, 2025), this presentation and discussion will explore how voice can be imagined as skin and what such a conception offers in times of crisis and uncertainties. Drawing on the notions and practices of embodied voice in experimental music and participatory media art, the event will revisit individual, collective, and multi-sensory processes of voice-making in everyday life. In so doing, it will consider the conception of a voice, one that is both individual and anonymous, and one that functions like a skin, a multi-sensory interface and surface that both connects and differentiates bodies of all kinds without being limited to discursive labels of language. Through the notion of voice-as-skin, this book presentation and discussion will reflect on the ethical implications and significance of voice-making processes for global issues like environmental crisis and artificial intelligence, while also questioning rushed forms of communication and presumed understandings of empathy. Zeynep Bulut is a voice and sound theorist. She is a lecturer in Music at SARC, Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Sound and Music, at Queen’s University Belfast.

In 1995, he founded Errant Bodies Press, an independent publishing project supporting work in sound art and studies, performance and poetics, artistic research and contemporary political thought. His publications include: Poetics of Listening (2025), Acoustic Justice (2021), The Other Citizen (2020), Sonic Agency (2018), Lexicon of the Mouth (2014), Acoustic Territories (2010, 2019), and Background Noise (2006, 2015). Holger Schulze is a full professor of musicology at the University of Copenhagen and the principal investigator at the Sound Studies Lab. His sonic anthropology explores how sounds and listening in the 21st century stabilise, disrupt, and permeate everyday life. Artistic practices and everyday objects are both of equal concern to his sonic critique. He is currently writing a book on meme music and working on The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Sound Studies in three volumes (as one of three editors-in-chief with Jennifer Stoever and Michael Bull), as well as The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sound in Museums (with Alcina Cortez, Gabriele Rossi Rognoni, and Eric de Visscher). His publications include: The Bloomsbury Handbook of the Anthropology of Sound (2021, ed.), Sonic Fiction (2020), The Sonic Persona (2018) and Sound as Popular Culture.

Güvenli hesaplamada yeni yaklaşımlar
Conventional Machine Learning and Cloud Computing solutions require access to the raw data which generates potential security and privacy risk. Homomorphic Encryption method and Secure Multi-Party Computation protocol are both suitable solutions for security vulnerability. Homomorphic Encryption and Secure Multi-Party Computation provide to perform arbitrary computation on encrypted data without revealing the data and give the result of the same computation performed on unencrypted data. In this thesis, the essential concepts, mathematical background, property of Homomorphic Encryption schemes, practical implementations, state of the art Cloud approaches, current industry and potential applications for Machine Learning algorithms are analyzed in detail.Geleneksel Makine Öğrenimi ve Bulut Bilişim çözümleri, potansiyel güvenlik ve gizlilik riski oluşturan ham verilere erişim gerektirir.

Distributed Attestation Revocation in Self-Sovereign Identity
Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) aspires to create a standardised identity layer for the Internet by placing citizens at the centre of their data, thereby weakening the grip of big tech on current digital identities. However, as millions of both physical and digital identities are lost annually, it is also necessary for SSIs to possibly be revoked to prevent misuse. Previous attempts at designing a revocation mechanism typically violate the principles of SSI by relying on central trusted components. This lack of a distributed revocation mechanism hampers the development of SSI. In this paper, we address this limitation and present the first fully distributed SSI revocation mechanism that does not rely on specialised trusted nodes. Our novel gossip-based propagation algorithm disseminates revocations throughout the network and provides nodes with a proof of revocation that enables offline verification of revocations. We demonstrate through simulations that our protocol adequately scales to national levels.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Data-Intensive System
Reputation-Based Data Carrying for Web3 Networks
Web3 networks are emerging to replace centrally-governed networking infrastructure. The integrity of the shared public infrastructure of Web3 networks is guaranteed through data sharing between nodes. However, due to the unstructured and highly partitioned nature of Web3 networks, data sharing between nodes in different partitions is a challenging task. In this paper we present the TSRP mechanism, which approaches the data sharing problem through nodes auditing each other to enforce carrying of data between partitions. Reputation is used as an analogue for the likelihood of nodes interacting with nodes from other partitions in the future. The number of copies of data shared with other nodes is inversely related to the nodes’ reputation. We use a real-world trace of Twitter to show how our implementation can converge to an equal number of copies as structured approachesGreen Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Data-Intensive System

Anti-demodex effect of commercial eyelid hygiene products
Purpose To investigate in vitro effects of active ingredients in eye cleansing wipes and solutions on the life span of Demodex. Methods Demodex mites were extracted by eyelash epilation method from volunteers who were found to have chronic demodex blepharitis during an ophthalmological examination. Preparations with three or more motile, live adult Demodex parasites were included in the study. Two drops of the test solution were dropped on the samples: saline, 2% tea tree oil (TTO; Osto (R), AKD Medical products, Turkey), 7.5% TTO (Blefaritto (R), Jeomed, Turkey), and 0.5% terpinen-4-ol (T4O; Blefastop plus (R), NTC, Italy). Under light microscopy at 100x and 400x magnification, samples were examined and followed. The average killing time of Demodex was noted for each preparation. Results The study was analyzed on 120 patient samples. In the control group with saline, the average killing time of Demodex had an average of 323.5 +/- 21.1 min. In other groups, an average mean of 95.9 +/- 25.2 min in the 2% TTO group, 67.1 +/- 21.8 min in the 7.5% TTO group, and 27.3 +/- 6.0 min in the 0.5% T4O group was observed. It was found that the 0.5% T4O group was significantly more effective than the other groups. Conclusion Chronic Demodex blepharitis treatment is quite difficult in ophthalmology practice. It appears that, even at very low concentrations, T4O has an effective anti-Demodex effect
