  11. 15 Sculptures You (probably) Didn’t Know Existed

    A fork in a lake. A shark in a roof. A portrait hidden inside fifty steel columns. These sixteen sculptures use cliffs, shadows, water, buildings, light, and even the viewer’s position as part of the work. Some are permanent landmarks; others travel or were created as temporary installations. 🎶 “Mélodie oubliée” — By Luo Li Rong In this workshop photo, Luo Li Rong uses a torch on the bronze surface of Mélodie oubliée. The finished work is 205 cm tall and weighs 250 kg, […]

  17. Hi everyone 🖖

    If you are thinkging about using #nanopore for genomic surveillance in #hospitals, but don't have the #bioinformatics nor command-line skills, don't let that put you off.

    'Modernising Medical Microbiology', at @NDMOxford in #Oxford, has developed `OxBreaker': a graphical tool that can help identify budding #outbreaks by #healthcare professionals without having to upload your data to external servers and compromise patient privacy. Worth a read 👇

  18. #Oxford the next lunchtime #recital at St. Michael's coming up on Monday features a cellist called #EmmaChamberlain. Unfortunately, there seems to be a hyper famous youtube influencer sharing that name, so impossible to find any videos of the cellist. She'll be playing sonatas by #Beethoven and #Debussy. smng.org.uk/services-and-study #cello

  20. 🦫💍 A #Cambridge #University study used genetic #data to create a monogamy ranking of 35 mammal species, finding #humans at 66% full-sibling rates.

    Humans ranked higher than #meerkats but below #beavers, with researchers noting monogamy likely evolved to enable paternal care and counter infanticide.

  22. Что я вынес из Oxford Machine Learning Summer School 2025

    Побывал на Oxford Machine Learning Summer School 2025 — одной из крупнейших летних школ, посвящённых искусственному интеллекту, проходившей в самом центре Оксфорда. В течение четырёх дней мы слушали лекции исследователей из DeepMind, Hugging Face, Amazon, Google, ученых топовых европейских вузов. Обсуждали foundation models, reinforcement learning, generative AI и on-device ML. В статье делюсь своими впечатлениями и кратким пересказом программы, отражающей мировые тренды в развитии современного машинного обучения.

  23. #obituary of legendary #oxford #saxophone shop owner. I bought two new flutes from him back in the days (before I got into the habit of rescuing battered old instruments). The trouble with losing his shop #Allegro a few years ago is that now we have no #woodwind repair shop locally. oxfordmail.co.uk/news/25322069

  24. Oxford Station. Catching a train to Manchester for a get-together in memory of the Nightline Association, which will sadly be closing this year (although individual Nightlines will doubtless soldier on just as they did before the Association).

    Carrying a big ol' bag of Three Rings swag to give to basically anybody who expresses even the slightest interest. 😅

    Three Rings has been supporting Nightlines since before the Nightline Association and nowadays underpins voluntary work by hundreds of other charities including helplines like Samaritans and Childline. Feeling sad that the Nightline Association is going away and looking for a new and rewarding way to volunteer? Come chat to me!
