Shift exhibition : Work implements for the legal immigrant (2018)

Exhibition: Shift. This exhibition is one of two that comprise a collaborative project between Blue Roof Museum, Chengdu, China and Wintec researchers, Hamilton, NZ. Wintec artists and Chengdu artists made up this exhibition and was curated by Ding Fenqi, Blue Roof Museum and Eliza Webster, Wallace Gallery , Morrinsville, NZ. Notions of community, technology and exchange were explored in the exhibition This sculptural work explores ideas of work, location/relocation and transferable skills

Potential causes of mortality for horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) during the biomedical bleeding process

Biomedical companies catch and bleed horseshoe crabs for the production of Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL), a product used for protecting public health (Berkson and Shuster, 1999). LAL is a clotting agent, derived solely from horseshoe crab blood cells, which is used to detect the presence of pathogenic gramnegative bacteria in injectable drugs and implantable medical and dental devices (Mikkelsen, 1988; Novitsky, 1991). In addition, LAL is used in many diagnostic tests for such illnesses as gram-negative bacterial meningitis and typhoid fever (Ding and Ho, 2001). Because the LAL test allows one to detect femtogram levels of endotoxin (Ding and Ho, 2001), it is the most effective test for detecting endotoxin contamination, and its increasing use in medical and pharmaceutical laboratories makes it a highly valued product

Evidence for Quasiparticle Decay in Photoemission from Underdoped Cuprates

I argue that the ``gap'' recently observed at the Brillouin zone face of cuprate superconductors in photoemission by Marshall et al [Phys. Rev. Lett. 76, 4841 (1996)] and Ding et al [Nature 382, 54 (1996)] is evidence for the decay of the injected hole into a spinon-holon pair.Comment: 4 pages of ReVTeX, 3 eps figure

Dr Dingwall's Casebook: Part Two: 'Dirty Ding'

Eric John Dingwall, author, anthropologist, librarian, psychic investigator, and, to some, the ‘British Kinsey’ is less well-known than his erstwhile colleague and sometime adversary, Harry Price, but is a figure of equal interest
