Thomson-Craighead at Studion
Moderna Museet invited Mejan Labs to curate two installations by the British artists Thomson & Craighead. This solo exhibition was in Studion at Moderna Museet, Stockholm. Works included: BEACON when it is shown as a data projection in a gallery. As with the online version and railway flap sign, live web searches are continuously relayed as they are being made around the world -in this case onto a gallery wall in series and at regular intervals as an endless concrete poetry. Decorative Newsfeeds use a live feed from the web to present up to the minute headline news from around the world as a series of pleasant animations, allowing viewers to keep informed while contemplating a kind of readymade sculpture or perhaps an automatic drawing
Talk: Karine Polwart and Amanda Thomson
In September 2025 writer-musician Karine Polwart walked the John Muir Way from west to east, gathering stories and observations for a new book. She was exploring the recent industrial and deeper geological past of the Forth Valley, stretching towards the East Lothian and Borders coastline, entwining ecology, folklore, memoir and songs that evoke this landscape, and her personal experience of living within it.
On the Kilsyth to Falkirk leg of the Way, Polwart walked with writer and visual artist Amanda Thomson. Thomson grew up in Kilsyth and Polwart grew up five miles east along the Forth and Clyde Canal, above the Stirlingshire village of Banknock. Both writers share a fascination for questions around human impacts on landscapes, social history, birdlore, botany, place-making and Scots language. And their connections to this particular route are deeply personal as well as artistic.
At the end of a day’s walking and blethers they held a public event, hosted by the Fruitmarket Gallery, at Forth Valley College, Falkirk, to share and discuss their work, how land and place informs it, and how their cross artform practices enrich it.
The event was programmed by Edinburgh’s Fruitmarket Gallery who are currently hosting Polwart as Dr Gavin Wallace Fellow in their ‘Attached to Land’ programme.
Amanda Thomson’s memoir Belonging was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing (2023). Her Scots Dictionary of Nature is published by Saraband

Development of a Thomson Scattering system for the SMART tokamak
reservedThis master thesis presents the development of Thomson scattering di-
agnostic system in SMART tokamak, estimating the number of detected
photoelectrons and designing the laser beam path for Thomson scattering
diagnostic of SMART tokamak. Thomson scattering plays an important
role in understanding the plasma inside the tokamaks, allowing the mea-
surements of important plasma parameters: plasma temperature and den-
sity along the radial coordinate.
The primary intention of this thesis is to take into account the electron
density and electron temperature profiles of the plasma while estimating
the detected number of photoelectons from Thomson scattering in different
working phases. Additionally, its focus is directed towards determining the
position of the lens for the purpose of converging the incoming laser beam.This master thesis presents the development of Thomson scattering di-
