Defining fabric drape

This research aims to obtain more insight in the perception of fabric drape and how fabric drape can be cat-egorized With the current 3D virtual technologies to simulate garments the fashion and clothing industry can speed up work processes, improve accuracy and reduce material consumption in fit, design and sales. Although the interest in 3D technology is increasing, the implementation on a large scale emerges only slowly. At the threshold between physical and virtual fitting the fashion industry faces new challenges and demands re-quiring responses out of rule. The measurement of fabric drape started in the first half of the previous cen-tury, after the introduction of 3D garment simulation fabric drape gained interest from more researchers to obtain information for the virtual drape. Intensive research has been undertaken to define ‘fabric hand’, however, research is limited for the definition of fabric drape. Better understanding of how fabrics drape and how they can be selected based on their drape might contribute to the understanding of the virtually as-sessed material and accelerate the selection process of virtually, as well as digitally presented fabrics. For this research the drape coefficient of 13 fabrics, selected based on their drape, was measured with the Cusick drape tester. Images and videos of the fabrics draped on pedestals were presented to an expert tex-tile panel who were asked to define the fabric drape. From these definitions categories, as well as identifying key-words, were derived. During a group session the expert panel evaluated the drape categories and identi-fying key-words. In the next phase an expert user panel, familiar with the assessment of fabrics in a virtual environment, assessed the appropriateness of the categories and identifying key-words which were present-ed along with the fabric drape images and videos. Moreover, both panels judged the stiffness and amount of drape, next to that they indicated similar draping fabrics. The relation between the subjective assessment of drape and the drape coefficient was investigated. The agreement of the user panel with the drape categories defined and evaluated by the textile panel was high. Further, the agreement of the majority of the user panel with the identifying key-words was above 78%. A strong relation was found between the measured drape coefficient and the subjectively assessed stiffness and amount of drape. Additionally, the analysis of the fabrics combined by the panels based on drape simi-larity, as well as the analysis of the drape coefficients, confirms with previous research, that significantly dif-ferent fabrics can have a similar drape. Fabrics can be divided in drape categories based on the way they drape, and the identifying key-words are useful to distinguish between significantly different fabrics with similar fabric drape. Moreover, the cate-gories are related to the drape coefficient.

Extended mobility scale (AMEXO) for assessing mobilization and setting goals after gastrointestinal and oncological surgery: a before-after study

BackgroundEarly structured mobilization has become a key element of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery programs to improve patient outcomes and decrease length of hospital stay. With the intention to assess and improve early mobilization levels, the 8-point ordinal John Hopkins Highest Level of Mobility (JH-HLM) scale was implemented at two gastrointestinal and oncological surgery wards in the Netherlands. After the implementation, however, healthcare professionals perceived a ceiling effect in assessing mobilization after gastrointestinal and oncological surgery. This study aimed to quantify this perceived ceiling effect, and aimed to determine if extending the JH-HLM scale with four additional response categories into the AMsterdam UMC EXtension of the JOhn HOpkins Highest Level of mObility (AMEXO) scale reduced this ceiling effect.MethodsAll patients who underwent gastrointestinal and oncological surgery and had a mobility score on the first postoperative day before (July–December 2018) or after (July–December 2019) extending the JH-HLM into the AMEXO scale were included. The primary outcome was the before-after difference in the percentage of ceiling effects on the first three postoperative days. Furthermore, the before-after changes and distributions in mobility scores were evaluated. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis were used to assess these differences.Results Overall, 373 patients were included (JH-HLM n = 135; AMEXO n = 238). On the first postoperative day, 61 (45.2%) patients scored the highest possible mobility score before extending the JH-HLM into the AMEXO as compared to 4 (1.7%) patients after (OR = 0.021, CI = 0.007–0.059, p ConclusionsA substantial ceiling effect was present in assessing early mobilization in patients after gastrointestinal and oncological surgery using the JH-HLM. Extending the JH-HLM into the AMEXO scale decreased the ceiling effect significantly, making the tool more appropriate to assess early mobilization and set daily mobilization goals after gastrointestinal and oncological surgery.

Better in - Better out

Early mobilisation after abdominal surgery is necessary to avoid complications and increase recovery. However, due to a variety of factors, failure of early mobilisation is seen in clinical practice. The aim of this study is to investigate the perspectives of nurses and patients of the Haaglanden Medical Center (HMC) how to increase mobilisation frequency after colorectal surgery in the oncological surgery ward. This explorative study employed qualitative data collection and analysis by means of semi-structured interviews with patients and nurses. Patients were included when they had a colorectal resection, were older than 18 years and spoke Dutch. The interviews were audiotaped and verbatum transcribed. A thematic content analysis was performed. It was concluded that mobilisation can be increased when it is incorporated in daily care activities and family support during visiting hours. Appropriate information about mobilisation and physical activity is needed for nurses, patients and family and the hospital environment should stimulate mobilisation.

Panarchy in the anthropocene

We, humans have our roots in pre-Anthropocene eras where we gathered skills for survival and establishing our culture. The cumulated tacit knowledge, the skills, ideas and experiences that can only be shared by personal contact and mutual trust, is evolved and cumulated during this pre-Anthropocene era. This tacit knowledge is geared to our existence and to local circumstances, it is the indigenous knowledge necessary for local adaptation and for (cultural) perseverance. The Anthropocene era however, is characterized by rapid changes with respect to environment, climate, food sovereignty, culture and more. Our tacit knowledge needs to evolve and adapt at the same pace as changes happen in our environment and culture. Changes in the Anthropocene era are fast and disruptive thereby challenging concomitant evolution of our tacit knowledge. Urban communities are embedded in the artificial world fostering learning and adaptation of new tacit knowledge geared to artificial environments. Remote communities, living in a more natural world, are especially vulnerable to effects of the Anthropocene because they are hampered in their access to other communities and/or environments to learn from and have limited access to (new) resources to live from. are typical for interacting complex adaptive systems. The famous butterfly in Brazil causing hurricanes and disaster in Texas. Small initial events can lead to large effects, small events can also lead to effects not anticipated upon because our (explicit) knowledge is incomplete and our imagination is bounded. Panarchy, a new paradigm originating from ecological science describes and tries to explain these phenomena. Panarchy is the evolution of multiple nested complex adaptive systems inter-acting on different space and time scales into different states of self-organisation3. A nice example of panarchy is the introduction of a few couples of grey wolves in 1995in Yellowstone park who, through different cascading events including beavers, birches, grizzly and elk, eventually changed the hydrology and pattern of Yellowstone river4.Complex adaptive system and panarchy after Holling cs.Remote communities in polar areas are especially affected by changes the Anthropocene. Global environmental pollution is eventually transported by long range atmospheric and oceanic circulation to polar areas where they cumulate in glacier ice and accumulates in trophic chains. Climate change causes melting of glacier ice thereby releasing over years cumulated pollutants instantly in the environment thereby increasing exposure levels dramatically. Local communities still depending on traditional food supply are exposed to elevated levels of organic micropollutants compared to other populations monitored globally. (Gibson et al 20161).The artic area was long considered as pristine environment not touched by human environmental pollution. The unexpected effect of long range global circulation transports is accumulation of micropollutants in artic environment and biota. Unexpected effects are typical in the Anthropocene because we cannot foresee or predict effects of human actions on environment or on fellow people and communities. Another example of an unexpected effect is the emergence of a cold-war secret military base “Camp Century” out of the Greenlandic ice shelf due to decreasing snow fall caused by climate change. This exposure was not reckoned upon at the time of discarding the base in the mid-sixties. The base is full of waste including gasoline, organic micropollutants and nuclear coolants, waiting to be melted out of the ice2. The release of this waste into the environment puts another burden on the arctic communities.Unexpected phenomena Complex adaptive systems (left) consist of phases of exploitation characterized by fast exponential growth (r-phase) , followed by consolidation and conservation characterized by balanced forces and networks (K-phase) whose energy and information is released after system disruption (Ω-phase) entering the phase of reorganisation (α-phase) which initiates a new phase of exploitation again. Panarchy (right) is the cross scale nested set of adaptive systems acting on different space and time scales.Panarchy is the paradigm of transition and change. Panarchy is interaction of countless interconnected and nested complex adaptive systems. Panarchy is the paradigm where small actions can have major effects for better or worse. It is to expect the unexpected. Panarchy holds the promise of positively changing the Anthropocene. By being prepared we can anticipate upon unexpected emerging phenomena which can be used as leverage for creating change.Panarchy holds the promise that small individual actions may lead to major positive changes in environment and society. Panarchy is the promise of empowerment of the individual or local community to initiate change for reaching a new state-of-art.The constant factor in human panarchy systems is knowledge, the skills, ideas and experiences necessary for coping different phases of the adaptive cycle. Codified knowledge, the theoretical knowledge has shown to be only partial effective for predicting adaptive cycles or panarchy change events. Tacit knowledge has that capacity neither but create skills for recognizing and seizing opportunities and to be prepared upon unexpected events, for better or worse. Tacit knowledge is shared by learning by doing, by gaming, by following examples, by learning from each other in contextual settings of mutual trust.The power of art with the perspective of the artist is within this setting of mutual trust. We believe that art, when approaching challenges, can evoke chains of thoughts and (cascading) events which through tacit learning will eventually affect systems. This results not only in innovative sustainable social and industrial products but also in change of systems.We have experimented this approach within the context of SDG-labs. SDG-labs are living labs for developing new practices fostering the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-labs)5.SDG-labs are the environment where we can experiment and create new resilient concepts for adaptation to the Anthropocene. SDG-Labs have two aspects, the first is creation of concepts for change within the lab-setting, its content; the second is the process of organisation of the lab within its environmental and societal context. The Lab itself can be regarded as a complex adaptive system while the organisation of the SDG-Lab is within panarchy, acting on multiple levels and on different scales. Both faces, content and context, of the SDG lab have their own emerging properties.For facilitation of the SDG-lab we organised workshops where creative methods based upon TRIZ ("Theory of inventive problem solving") and CPS (Creative Problem Solving) were applied. TRIZ makes use of pre-established thinking patterns and proven abstract solutions to sets of abstract problems. TRIZ provides a toolbox for solving complex (wicked) problems. TRIZ uses the heuristics of intrinsic technological and societal evolution once a concept emerges. CPS is used for application of the TRIZ toolbox, by making concrete problems abstract and abstract solutions, concrete. TRIZ and CPS makes use of analytical and design thinking. Results of these workshops are emerged pre-concepts which have the potential to create change.Contextual settings of the SDG-lab determine its rate of success. Many good ideas perish in the “valley of death”, before they can realise their full potential. The contextual setting determines acceptance and hence increases probability of idea realisation. The action of organising SDG-labs generates curiosity, enthusiasm, resistance and other emotions with people and organisations. This lead to disturbances in panarchy, which is rendered in emerging opportunities that can be seized by imaginative people.Sarasvathy and Simon (2000) coined for this approach the concept of effectuation as an entrepreneurial principle for seizing opportunities which emerge from entrepreneurial actions in contrast to causation where managerial thinking obscures seeing opportunities. Effectuation is actor dependent where given specific means, choice of effect is driven by characteristics of the actor and his or her ability to discover and use contingencies. This approach is also recognised in innovation theory where the concept of “exaptation” is explored. Exaptation is the attribution of a new functionality to an existing artefact (or organization, scientific achievement, or cultural model) (Bonifati, 2010). Once recognised, effectuation and exaptation are major change drivers based upon emergence of contingencies in existing systems.Our SDG-lab has discovered by accident the power of effectuation and exaptation for creating impact and change by using content and context of the SDG labs at the same time. Our SDG-lab has resulted in tangible results in our community. Back to the arctic pollution and its effect on people. We cannot solve this problem, however there are communities who have suffered similar problems in the past and they have found practical solutions for coping with their difficulties. People are eager to help each other as is demonstrated by the simple phenomena that when a stranger asks for directions, in most cases he will be helped by friendly people. Additionally, theoretical knowledge offers us insight into processes and opportunities we are not aware of and from which we can learn together to create new (tacit) practices. Bringing together these people in a trusted environment may lead to new insights and practices which might be worth to follow.Exploring the paradigm of panarchy as principle of change and transition has opened up our minds for seeing and seizing emerging opportunities as change drivers and this to our surprise seems very promising.

The challenges of evidence-based prehabilitation in a real-life context for patients preparing for colorectal surgery - a cohort study and multiple case analysis

Background: Multimodal prehabilitation programs are effective at reducing complications after colorectal surgery in patients with a high risk of postoperative complications due to low aerobic capacity and/or malnutrition. However, high implementation fidelity is needed to achieve these effects in real-life practice. This study aimed to investigate the implementation fidelity of an evidence-based prehabilitation program in the real-life context of a Dutch regional hospital.Methods: In this observational cohort study with multiple case analyses, all patients who underwent colorectal surgery from January 2023 to June 2023 were enrolled. Patients meeting the criteria for low aerobic capacity or malnutrition were advised to participate in a prehabilitation program. According to recent scientific insights and the local care context, this program consisted of four exercise modalities and three nutrition modalities. Implementation fidelity was investigated by evaluating: (1) coverage (participation rate), (2) duration (number of days between the start of prehabilitation and surgery), (3) content (delivery of prescribed intervention modalities), and (4) frequency (attendance of sessions and compliance with prescribed parameters). An aggregated percentage of content and frequency was calculated to determine overall adherence.Results: Fifty-eight patients intended to follow the prehabilitation care pathway, of which 41 performed a preoperative risk assessment (coverage 80%). Ten patients (24%) were identified as high-risk and participated in the prehabilitation program (duration of 33-84 days). Adherence was high (84-100%) in five and moderate (72-73%) in two patients. Adherence was remarkably low (25%, 53%, 54%) in three patients who struggled to execute the prehabilitation program due to multiple physical and cognitive impairments.Conclusion: Implementation fidelity of an evidence-based multimodal prehabilitation program for high-risk patients preparing for colorectal surgery in real-life practice was moderate because adherence was high for most patients, but low for some patients. Patients with low adherence had multiple impairments, with consequences for their preparation for surgery. For healthcare professionals, it is recommended to pay attention to high-risk patients with multiple impairments and further personalize the prehabilitation program. More knowledge about identifying and treating high-risk patients is needed to provide evidence-based recommendations and to obtain higher effectiveness.

Post-Precarity Zine

The Institute of Network Cultures and the Learning Community Critical Making are proud to present the Post-Precarity Zine, a toolbox for beginning artists.Times have changed. The art world and the creative economy are no longer the ones we used to know. The digital economy, the pandemic, and the cuts within the cultural field are some of the many factors that influence our practices and the way artists live nowadays. While some claim that the golden eras are gone, and maybe they are, a community of young artists and thinkers meets to discuss the ways in which the narrative around art and its practices has changed and can be geared towards the future.What does it mean to be an artist today? How to survive as a cultural worker while making what you want to make? How can we use contemporary platforms to turn our anger into transformative power? What are the many strategies of organization and obstacles artists have to face nowadays for their practice to remain? By better understanding the structures of the art world and its economies, how can we counteract them and use them to our benefit and create sustainable and collective actions?It is with such questions in mind that the first Post-Precarity Precarity Autumn Camp was organized by the Institute of Network Cultures, Platform BK and Hotel Maria Kapel from September 27th until October 1st, 2021. This zine collects extracts of texts, testimonials, precious reports, summaries of our daily programs, quotes, drawings and notes from the many participants, references to relevant sources, an open letter to Dutch art academies with four demands for change, an essay on principles for post-precarity, and exercises you can do at home to recalibrate your ‘artistic biotope’. With this mumble jumble, we give you a window to our inspiring week, a toolkit, and a fragmented manifesto. We hope to inspire you with our critical reflections, optimism, and the actions taken during the Post-Precarity Autumn Camp!

Identification of promising strategies to sustain improvements in hospital practice

Background: A quality improvement collaborative is an intensive project involving a combination of implementation strategies applied in a limited “breakthrough” time window. After an implementation project, it is generally difficult to sustain its success. In the current study, sustainability was described as maintaining an implemented innovation and its benefits over a longer period of time after the implementation project has ended. The aim of the study was to explore potentially promising strategies for sustaining the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programme in colonic surgery as perceived by professionals, three to six years after the hospital had successfully finished a quality improvement collaborative. Methods: A qualitative case study was performed to identify promising strategies to sustain key outcome variables related to the ERAS programme in terms of adherence, time needed for functional recovery and hospital length of stay (LOS), as achieved immediately after implementation. Ten hospitals were selected which had successfully implemented the ERAS programme in colonic surgery (2006–2009), with success defined as a median LOS of 6 days or less and protocol adherence rates above 70%. Fourteen semi-structured interviews were held with eighteen key participants of the care process three to six years after implementation, starting with the project leader in every hospital. The interviews started by confronting them with the level of sustained implementation results. A direct content analysis with an inductive coding approach was used to identify promising strategies. The mean duration of the interviews was 37 minutes (min 26 minutes – max 51 minutes). Results: The current study revealed strategies targeting professionals and the organisation. They comprised internal audit and feedback on outcomes, small-scale educational booster meetings, reminders, changing the physical structure of the organisation, changing the care process, making work agreements and delegating responsibility, and involving a coordinator. A multifaceted self-driven promising strategy was applied in most hospitals, and in most hospitals promising strategies were suggested to sustain the ERAS programme. Conclusions: Joining a quality improvement collaborative may not be enough to achieve long-term normalisation of transformed care, and additional investments may be needed. The findings suggest that certain post-implementation strategies are valuable in sustaining implementation successes achieved after joining a quality improvement collaborative.

ARISA

Met huidige opleidings- en trainingsprogramma’s kan niet worden voldaan aan de groeiende vraag naar vakbekwame medewerkers op gebied van kunstmatige intelligentie (AI). Europa heeft daarom een innovatieve Europese AI-strategie nodig, die de bijscholing van werkenden kan versnellen om aan deze steeds toenemende vraag te voldoen. Doel Het project ondersteunt het Europese Pact for Skills door een strategie op het gebied van AI skills te ontwikkelen. Deze strategie moet leiden tot impact op het terugdringen van tekorten, hiaten en mismatches in skills op de arbeidsmarkt, en zorgen voor passende kwaliteit en niveaus van skills. Resultaten Verwachte resultaten en impactHet project omvat: de oprichting van een lange termijn partnerschap voor een innovatieve Europese alliantie voor AI; het ontwerpen en uitrollen van een innovatieve en duurzame strategie voor AI-skills op korte en lange termijn; het ontwikkelen, testen en uitrollen van opleidingscurricula in acht proeflocaties (5 universiteiten/hogescholen en 3 mbo-aanbieders); de aanpassing van programma's en kwalificaties aan de nieuwste marktbehoeften. het koppelen van micro-credentials aan het opleidingsaanbod Voordelen op lange termijnDe AI-skills strategie en de opleidingscurricula zullen, nadat ze zijn ontworpen en grondig getest in de praktijk, beschikbaar worden gesteld om te worden aangepast en opgeschaald in heel Europa. Op deze manier kan worden voldaan aan de huidige en toekomstige skills-behoeften van de AI-sector en kan de groei van AI-talent in Europa worden gestimuleerd. Looptijd 01 juni 2022 - 30 juni 2026 Aanpak Het project wordt als volgt uitgevoerd in negen werkpakketten: 1 – Projectbeheer en coördinatie 2 – Behoeftenanalyse 3 – Strategie voor AI-skills 4 - Ontwikkeling van een innovatief leerplan en trainingsprogramma 5 - Ontwikkeling van een certificeringssysteem 6 – Pilots in verschillende EU-landen 7 – Verspreiding en communicatie 8 – Duurzaamheid op lange termijn 9 – Kwaliteitsborging Inhoudelijk start het project met de behoeftenanalyse, waarin de skills mismatch op Europees niveau wordt geanalyseerd door o.a. de behoefte aan skills op basis van vacatures en beschikbaar relevant AI opleidingsaanbod te onderzoeken. Meer over ARISA Het vierjarige onderzoeksproject ARISA wordt gefinancierd door de Europese Unie via een Erasmus+ programma.

Artificial intelligence tegen zwerfafval

Een geschatte hoeveelheid van tussen de 35 en 140 miljoen kilo zwerfafval wordt jaarlijks in Nederland op straat of in de natuur aangetroffen. Gemeenten zijn verantwoordelijk voor het voorkomen en opruimen van zwerfafval. Daarom heeft bijvoorbeeld gemeente Breda de ambitie uitgesproken om de stad in 2030 zwerfafval vrij te hebben. Deze ambitieuze doelstelling moet bereikt worden door acties zowel op het vlak van preventie, als het opruimen en het hergebruik. Om deze acties kwantitatief te onderbouwen en te monitoren zijn gegevens over ligging, hoeveelheid en samenstelling van het zwerfafval noodzakelijk. Het is momenteel al mogelijk om zwerfafvaldata te verkrijgen om analyses op te verrichten. Deze data is afkomstig van vrijwilligers die middels apps als Litterati zwerfafval verzamelen en classificeren (labelen). Het toekennen van een label is een tijdrovende klus en levert maar een beperkt beeld van de totale hoeveelheid zwerfafval in een gemeente. Dit classificeren kan geautomatiseerd worden door object detectie algoritmen welke zijn getraind op afbeeldingen van zwerfafval. Om een groter gebied te monitoren zijn camerasystemen ontwikkeld die in staat zijn zwerfafval automatisch te detecteren. Technisch gezien zijn er steeds meer oplossingen om automatisch zwerfafval in kaart te brengen en te classificeren, maar een praktijkgerichte oplossing voor bijvoorbeeld beleidsmakers zonder technische kennis ontbreekt nog. In dit toegepast ontwerponderzoek werken we samen met gemeente Breda, gemeente ‘s-Hertogenbosch, stichting GoClean, Natuur- en milieuvereniging Markkant, stichting Nederland Schoon, de Antea Group en betrokken MKB-ers aan het antwoord op de onderzoeksvraag “Hoe kan zwerfafval in de openbare ruimte automatisch gedetecteerd en geclassificeerd worden vanuit verschillende, onafhankelijke bronnen met een zo beperkt mogelijke tijdsinvestering van de mens in dit proces.” De technische componenten die hiervoor nodig zijn worden samengevoegd in een gebruiksvriendelijk dataplatform. Op basis van de uitkomsten kunnen gemeenten (en andere publieke partijen) in Nederland datagedreven interventies ontwikkelen om zwerfafval tegen te gaan.

Autonoom navigeren met drones in magazijnen

Voor zowel de jaarcijfers als de leverbetrouwbaarheid is het noodzakelijk om voorraad in een magazijn te tellen. Vaak gebeurt dit periodiek. Een populair fenomeen is Cycle Counting, dit betekent dat alle voorraad (op een gedefinieerd moment) wordt geteld, bijvoorbeeld elke 90 dagen. Het tellen van voorraad wordt handmatig uitgevoerd door medewerkers. De medewerkers worden gestuurd naar een locatie in het magazijn die minder dan 90 dagen geleden is geteld, gevraagd wordt of deze pallet nog op de locatie aanwezig is en wat het aantal stuks is. Het idee is om dit proces te automatiseren met een drone. De drone moet in staat zijn om autonoom in een gangpad te navigeren en opnames te maken van de voorraad. Vervolgens kunnen deze beelden geanalyseerd worden en de juiste locatie aan het juiste palletnummer worden gelinkt. Ook zouden lege locaties herkend kunnen worden om vervolgens te controleren of deze overeenstemmen met data uit het voorraadbeheersysteem. Autonoom navigeren met een drone die buiten vliegt op basis van GPS is een commodity. Een drone autonoom indoor te laten navigeren in een GPS-deprived omgeving is op zich al een uitdaging. Om echter van de toepassing een commercieel succes te maken moet dit een zo goedkoop mogelijke drone zijn waar, behalve de camera, zo min mogelijk extra sensoren aan worden toegevoegd. Het idee achter dit project is om een vooronderzoek uit te voeren naar de mogelijkheden om drones autonoom te laten navigeren in magazijnen. Indien dit mogelijk is kan verder onderzoek plaats vinden hoe met behulp van drones Cycle Counting geautomatiseerd kan worden. De Twirre architectuur biedt een goed uitgangspunt om het autonoom vliegen met drones in een magazijn te ontwikkelen. De projectpartners hebben met dit KIEM project de volgende doelstellingen: • onderzoeken of visuele markers in combinatie met een camera gebruikt kunnen worden om in een magazijn de positie van een drone te bepalen; • indien nodig inventariseren welke extra sensoren gebruikt kunnen worden om in een magazijn de positie van een drone te bepalen; • onderzoeken of door alleen van de camerasensor gebruik te maken in een magazijn obstakels kunnen worden gedetecteerd die ontweken moeten worden; • indien nodig inventariseren welke sensoren gebruikt kunnen worden om in een magazijn obstakels te kunnen detecteren die ontweken moeten worden; • keuzes maken voor positie- en antibots-sensoren, deze integreren in de Twirre architectuur; • een drone met de uitgebreide Twirre architectuur testen in een magazijn, autonoom door de gangen in het magazijn te vliegen, de positienauwkeurigheid te bepalen en de botspreventie te testen; • daarmee de basis leggen voor een vervolgproject gericht op het ontwikkelen van een platform dat op basis van een autonoom vliegende drone Cycle Counting kan uitvoeren.

Campus Coolhaven (GROUNDS)

Onderzoek naar de vormgeving van het leerecosysteem Coolhaven Collab, een culturele proeftuin, in het kader van Rotterdamse cultuurbeleid 2021-2024. In het kader van de regioplannen in het cultuurbeleid is er plaats voor regionale proeftuinen. In de regio Rotterdam bestaat de proeftuin uit het project Campus Coolhaven. In Campus Coolhaven werken Maastheater/Maaspodium, Grounds/WMDC, Jeugdtheater Hofplein, Codarts, het Albeda College (MBO theater/dans /muziek) en schoolbestuur LMC (theatermavo; havo/vwo voor muziek en dans) samen. Al deze instellingen werken in Coolhaven. De ambitie is, aldus de aanvraag, “het bieden van ruimte en perspectieven aan creatief MBO-talent (16 tot 25 jarigen) binnen de podiumkunsten, dat daarmee kan doorstromen naar een diverse creatieve beroepspraktijk of het HBO kunstvakonderwijs”. Op de achtergrond speelt de observatie mee dat in de superdiverse stad Rotterdam een deel van het potentiële talent ‘onder de radar’ van de formele culturele infrastructuur blijft, en dat dat ongewenst is. In het project wordt daarom gewerkt aan het ‘slechten van drempels’ en daarbij wordt de informele culturele infrastructuur (grassroot-organisaties, bijvoorbeeld van minderheden in Rotterdam) actief betrokken. In het projectplan is € 20.000 gereserveerd voor een onderzoek naar MBO talent dat zich zowel binnen het formele circuit ontwikkelt als erbuiten in communities en het betrekken van mensen uit die communities bij het traject. Dit doen de proeftuinorganisaties door het scouten en volgen van een aantal talenten in verschillende fases, het uitnodigen van mensen uit die communities bij de instellingen voor kennismaking/workshops/ontmoetingen etc. Aan prof.dr. Evert Bisschop Boele, bijzonder hoogleraar ‘betekenis van cultuurparticipatie’ aan de Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam en lector Kunsteducatie aan de Hanzehogeschool Groningen, is gevraagd om met een plan te komen om dit onderzoek uit te voeren.
