The surveillant assemblage.

George Orwell's 'Big Brother' and Michel Foucault's 'panopticon' have dominated discussion of contemporary developments in surveillance. While such metaphors draw our attention to important attributes of surveillance, they also miss some recent dynamics in its operation. The work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari is used to analyse the convergence of once discrete surveillance systems. The r...

Assemblage of Ortho Cleavage

Genetic engineering is a powerful means of accclcrating the evolution of new biological activities and has coDsiderable potential for constructing microorganisms that can degrade environmental poUutants. Critical enzymes from five different catabolic pathways of three distinct soil bacteria have been combined in patq,.work fashion into a functional ortbo cleavage route for the degradation of me...

Counter-Mapping as Assemblage

This paper explores the utility of assemblage theory for intergenerational counter-mapping and, through this, for reconfigurations of indigeneity. Counter-mapping is theorised as a kind of assemblage that, through intergenerational learning, is fundamentally memetic (composed of evolving units of information) in nature. Assemblage is theorised as having three aspects (relations of exteriority, ...

3D SOM Neighborhood Algorithm

Neighborhood algorithm is an important part of 3D SOM algorithm. We proposed three kinds of neighborhood shape and two kinds of neighborhood decay function for threedimensional self-organizing feature maps (3D SOM) algorithm and applied them to three-dimensional image compression coding. Experimental results show that the 3D orthogonal cross neighborhood shape and exponential function algorithm...
