    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Feasibility of Using Low CO2 Concrete Alternatives in Extrusion-Based 3D Concrete Printing

    In conventional concrete, replacing high-volume (more than 45%) of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) by supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is not a novel CO2 reduction method, whereas rarely in 3D printable concrete. This study attempts to explore the feasibility of using SCMs in 3D printable concrete. Initially, the existing binder mixes, required fresh properties and a research method of 3D printable concrete are investigated by reviewing the relevant papers. Additionally, the constraints and opportunities of using SCMs in 3D printable concrete are illustrated and summarized. Finally, it has been found that up to 45% of cement can be replaced by a blend of fly ash and silica fume. The essential fresh properties of 3D printable concrete include extrudability, workability, open time, buildability and structural build-up, which are influenced by the binder mix, particle size distribution, water to binder ratio, binder to aggregate ratio, admixture addition, the dosage of reinforced-fibers, etc. On the other hand, there are many limitations to develop SCMs-based 3D printable concrete, such as few relevant studies, a lack of the certificated standard, massive related-parameters and the shortage of common SCMs. For the first three problems, it can be solved with the development of 3D printable concrete. For the last one, calcined clay is one potential alternative for developing sustainable 3D printable concrete in the areas where are in short supply of fly ash and silica fume.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.Materials and EnvironmentStructural Design & Mechanic

    Five minutes with Timothy Gowers: “academics can publish journals of the highest quality without a commercial entity”

    Fields Medal-winning Cambridge mathematician Sir Timothy Gowers and a team of colleagues have recently launched a new editor-owned Open Access (OA) journal for mathematics. Discrete Analysis is an arXiv overlay journal, which means articles are submitted and hosted via the preprint server arXiv first. The journal coordinates peer-review and publishes via Scholastica with no cost to reader or author. Gowers reflects here on his vision for the future of editor-owned journals

    ABSTRACT First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Timothy Cummins is the first author on ‘PAWS1 controls cytoskeletal dynamics and cell migration through association with the SH3 adaptor CD2AP’, published in Journal of Cell Science. Timothy is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Louisville School of Medicine Clinical Proteomics Center, which focuses on identifying biomarkers of kidney diseases by using quantitative mass spectroscopy.</jats:p
