  Allergology - Allergies and...

  Allergies are an overreaction of the immune system to substances that are typically harmless to most people. These substances, known as allergens, can include food, pollen, dust, pet dander, insect venom, and certain medications. When an allergic individual comes into contact with an allergen, their immune system mistakenly identifies it as a threat and triggers a defensive response. This response can range from mild symptoms, such as sneezing or a skin rash, to severe and potentially life-threatening reactions like anaphylaxis.  
  The immune system plays a central role in allergic reactions. Normally, it defends the body against harmful pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. However, in individuals with allergies, the immune system misidentifies allergens as dangerous invaders. The primary component involved in allergic reactions is Immunoglobulin E (IgE), a type of antibody that binds to specific allergens. This binding signals immune cells, such as mast cells and basophils, to release histamine and other inflammatory chemicals, leading to symptoms like swelling, redness, itching, and respiratory distress. 
  Allergic reactions are classified into different types based on the mechanism and timing of the immune response. Immediate hypersensitivity reactions occur within minutes of allergen exposure and are mediated by IgE. These reactions include hay fever, asthma attacks, and food allergies. Delayed hypersensitivity reactions, on the other hand, take several hours or even days to develop and involve different immune pathways, such as T-cell activation. Contact dermatitis, a reaction to certain chemicals or metals, is an example of a delayed allergic response.

  Augmented Reality and Virtual...

  Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have transformed the way we interact with digital environments, offering immersive experiences that blend the real and virtual worlds. While both technologies enhance perception, they do so in fundamentally different ways. AR overlays digital elements onto the real world, enriching reality with interactive, computer-generated enhancements. VR, on the other hand, creates fully immersive digital environments, transporting users into a completely virtual space where physical surroundings disappear. 
  The evolution of AR and VR has been a fascinating journey, driven by advancements in computing power, graphics rendering, and sensor technology. Early experiments in virtual reality can be traced back to the 1960s, with devices like the Sensorama and the first head-mounted displays. However, it wasn’t until the 2010s that VR technology became widely accessible, thanks to companies like Oculus, HTC, and Sony. AR’s development followed a different trajectory, gaining mainstream attention with mobile applications like Pokémon GO and smart glasses designed for enterprise use. 
  One of the key distinctions between AR and VR is their method of user interaction. AR enhances real-world experiences without replacing them, allowing users to see both physical and digital elements simultaneously. This has led to widespread adoption in fields such as retail, education, and healthcare. VR, in contrast, immerses users in entirely synthetic environments, making it ideal for gaming, training simulations, and remote collaboration. The level of immersion is influenced by factors such as display resolution, field of view, motion tracking, and haptic feedback, all of which contribute to a sense of presence within a virtual space.

  From an artist and TikTok creator, a critical look at the controversial app and its effect on cultural heritage, artificial intelligence, community organizing, and digital censorship. In Revolutionary Algorithms, Torey Akers approaches TikTok with a deep understanding of the app, as both a prolific creator and consumer of its content. In these essays, she interrogates how the TikTok ban and the multiple genocides happening around the world are deeply intertwined; how the app can empower creators, amplify social movements, and document abuses of power. She addresses the good, bad, and sometimes uncanny parts of maneuvering and communicating in a digital space.  As a new era of social media looms, Akers makes the case for techno-progressivism, looking toward a future where TikTok continues to connect, inspire, and create space for more intersectionality, equity, and joy.
