Background

Sleep disruption is common in hospitalized patients due to interruptions from staff and other patients, discomfort from medical devices, and symptoms of their medical conditions.¹ In older adults, sleep disruption can lead to cardiometabolic derangements (e.g., increased blood sugar and blood pressure) and increased risk of delirium.² Loss of sleep can thus lead to downstream effects like worsening polypharmacy, slowed recovery, and even loss of independence.² Non-pharmacologic sleep interventions can be

This exhibit grew from an ongoing community-based research collaboration between The PRIDE Lab in the Department of Psychology at Cornell University and our community partners: The Ali Forney Center in New York City and The Q Center in Syracuse, New York. Together, we are investigating how chosen family shapes identity, resilience, and mental health among LGBTQ+ youth and young adults.

The art featured here was created by LGBTQ+ youth and young adults from The Ali

We welcome you to the showcase of student works from DEA 6400: AI, Embodiment, and Design!  These works result from a design exploration of what AI may look like when it leaves the screen—by translating LLMs into tangible objects. You will have a chance to interact with this collection of imaginative, useful, or explorative artifacts. Schedule of these demos are as follows:

Open between Feb 10 - 20 at the Jill Stuart Gallery, Human

Snow Day
A guide for how to play in the snow

Snow Day is a public space for practicing winter.

Cold weather is not an obstacle, but a condition. Snow is not an absence of activity, it is a material. A surface. This installation acts as a guide for how to enter it.

Wood frames hold flexible bands of color suspended like thresholds, like weather made visible. They mark a temporary territory within the landscape

How do we see fashion, and what does fashion make visible? What agency do we gain through fashion, and what does fashion make us do? What power do we have through fashion, and how does fashion have power over us? The answers will vary depending on how we approach fashion and consumerism and which theoretical lenses we use. But they are essential questions to ask if we are to reflect on agency, designations, action spaces, and

Investigating prebiotic chemistry and the fundamental features of life like metabolism, information, self-reproduction, natural selection and computation, is significant within the origins of life research. In this context, one of the key elements constitutes the synthesis of chemistry-based natural-life-mimicking artificial or synthetic living systems, starting from a homogeneous aqueous blend of a few strictly non-biochemical compounds, using a technique called polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). In one of the studies, gradient sequence-controlled polymers were generated through PET-RAFT-PISA
