Resumen
George Henry Frederick Ulrich (1830–1900) was educated at the Clausthal Mining School in Germany and arrived in Victoria in 1853. After a short period on the goldfields, he was employed on the Mining Commission and then on the Geological Survey of Victoria until its closure in 1868. In 1870 he was appointed Curator and Lecturer at the newly established Industrial and Technological Museum of Victoria. In 1878 he was appointed inaugural Director of the Otago School of Mines, New Zealand, a position he held until his death in 1900. His legacy includes detailed original maps of central Victorian goldfields, the foundation of the state’s geological collections, and among the first accounts of Victorian geology published in German periodicals, until now little known. As the only scientist of his times in Victoria with the qualifications and expertise to accurately identify and properly describe minerals, he provided the first comprehensive accounts of Victorian mineralogy, including the identification of the first new mineral in Australia, which he named maldonite. His contribution to mineralogy is recognised by the species ulrichite. Ulrich was universally respected for his scientific achievements and highly regarded for his personal qualities.

Resumen
Bombay of the interwar years was a city in transition. TheUrbs Prima in Indus, and second city of the British Empire, became increasingly both a site of nationalist sentiment and a conduit of cosmopolitan cultural and economic currents. Its urban fabric witnessed the shift from colonial, Victorian city tomodernemetropolis. Captured in A. R. Haseler’s dramatic aerial photograph from the mid-1930S (Fig. 1), the Regal Cinema stands out against the Indo-Saracenic monuments of late imperial Bombay — notably George Wittet’s Gateway of India (1924) seen at the top of the photograph, his Prince of Wales Museum (1923) — its gardens on the bottom left — and, on the right, his Royal Institute of Science (1920). Although not a government-commissioned building, to the right of the Gateway, on the waterside, is the Taj Mahal Hotel (1903), a luxurious structure intended by the Parsi industrialist, Jamsetji N. Tata, to be a location for inter-cultural relations. Extending this type of space to some degree, the Regal was built by another Parsi, Framji Sidhwa, in 1933. The cinema marked the beginning of a decade-long building boom that corresponded with a significant population increase, as more and more migrants joined the city’s growing industrial workforce.The Art Deco styling of the new financial, residential, and commercial buildings, like the Regal, celebrated and framed a modern public culture which responded to the unique socio-political realities of interwar Bombay. ‘Public culture’, a term developed by Arjun Appadurai and Carol Breckenridge, is conceptualized here as a dynamic process of indigenization, one that takes into account the global flow of ideologies through human migration and especially by mass media, one that destabilizes the ‘high-low’ binary and avoids the homogenizing terminology of ‘westernization’ or ‘Americanization’. The Art Deco cinema might be considered a crossroads where the often interpenetrating and sometimes competing narratives of commerce, nation, empire and formations of modern subjectivities intermingled: a nexus of cultural, economic, technological and political flow. The use of Art Deco is important in the context of Bombay as the style signified modernity and a particular sense of cosmopolitanism on the one hand, and yet resonated with or extended pre-existing cultural traditions in a distinctly local manner on the other.

"Contributions to the research of the Technological-Industrial Museum of Cluj The Technological-Industrial Museum of Cluj opened its doors in 1888, with the name “Franz Iosif I Museum of Industry”, in memory of the Emperor's visit to Cluj, made in 1887. Frequent changes of premises, of exhibition spaces and finally the institution closing; transfers of artefacts between different institutions, which often resulted in the loss of essential documents needed for artefacts identification; all these considerably complicate both the research work and the attempts for exhibitional and educational valorisation. This paper aims to synthesise the information published, mostly in Hungarian, about the Technological-Industrial Museum from Cluj and to add the results of our own research on artefacts that nowadays belong to the Transylvanian Ethnographic Museum’s collections, wishing to provide a starting point for possible future publications on the subject.

Resumen
German scientists made substantial and notable contributions to colonial Victoria. They were involved in the establishment and/or development of some of the major public institutions, e.g. the Royal Society of Victoria, National Herbarium, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Museum Victoria, the Flagstaff Observatory for Geophysics, Magnetism and Nautical Science, the Pharmaceutical Society of Victoria and the Victorian College of Pharmacy. Further, they played a leading role not only in scientific and technological developments but also in exploration – Home has identified ‘science as a German export to nineteenth century Australia’ (Home 1995: 1). Significantly, an account of the 1860 annual dinner of the Royal Society of Victoria related the following comment from Dr John Macadam MP, Victorian Government Analytical Chemist: ‘Where would science be in Victoria without the Germans?’ (Melbourner Deutsche Zeitung 1860: 192). This paper considers key German scientists working in mid-nineteenth century Victoria and the nature and significance of their contributions to the colony.

Resumen
Abstract In March 1937, the Technology Museum of Catalonia was created by a governmental order, but it never materialized. How come was a national museum of technology perceived as an urgent need in the midst of the Spanish Civil War? This article explores how this failed attempt was rooted in the long-standing political interest of the engineering community in the musealization of technology in Barcelona. On the one hand, it analyses the tradition of technological display aimed at increasing industrial productivity and improving technical education. On the other hand, it studies the techno-nationalist efforts by engineers to construct a respectable technological past for the nation through display. Finally, it explores how these two approaches would have been articulated in the Technology Museum of Catalonia in the context of the key role played by engineering professionals during the Spanish Civil War.

Resumen
In October of 2004, the Museo de Medicina Laboral (Museum of Labor Medicine), opened to the public in Real del Monte, State of Hidalgo, Mexico. The museum, located on the grounds of what had been the Hospital Minero (Mining Hospital), was a building complex conceived, built, and operationalized at the height of Mexico’s Industrial Revolution and the region’s only medical facility specializing in the healthcare needs of miners and their families. Utilizing historical analysis, the hospital reveals contradictions frequently embodied by the era’s Modernist built environments. Inaugurated in 1907, the hospital was the culmination of the United States Smelting Refining and Mining Company (USSRMC) and its Mexican subsidiary, Compañía Real del Monte y Pachuca’s (CRMyP) efforts to bring healthcare to its employees while maximizing production. On one hand, the hospital’s design and operation expressed an optimism wrought by the dissemination of positivist and utilitarian philosophies and economic growth spurred by technological innovation; on the other, growing wealth inequality and deteriorating, often brutal, labor conditions. Nearly 120 years later, the hospital again embodies a global reality. In contemporary post-industrialist economies, once these built environments cease being productive, they are usually abandoned or demolished; only a few are transformed and repositioned for other uses. As the region’s mining industry ceased productivity, the hospital was first abandoned and later rescued by a newly privatized enterprise that donated the medical building complex to a non-for-profit civil association focused on mining heritage. Now the Museum, an architectural expression that fused global and local economic, technological, and aesthetic sensibilities, has become an example of commodified didactic heritage.

Resumen
This collaborative multidisciplinary pilot project involving the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), the Ashmolean Museum, and Newham Borough of London, examined the composition of a selection of eighteenth-century porcelain objects by two of London’s first porcelain manufacturers, Bow and Chelsea. As the first science-based public engagement project to be piloted by the V&A, it succeeded in bringing together young Londoners and their communities to investigate local histories of scientific and artistic innovation through the analysis and remaking of eighteenth-century porcelain. Scientific object analysis informed activities with local sixth-form students, revealing the intimate link between art and science, and showcasing the V&A Science Lab as a national hub for heritage science. Public outreach activities, including an exhibition at Stratford Library and workshops for Newham Heritage Month also provided hands-on learning, including curatorial and object-handling experience, and the embodied practices of remaking. Ultimately, this project stimulated new ways of engaging with ceramics collections and explored how the creativity and ingenuity of eighteenth-century ceramics pioneers can provide inspiration for the next generation of makers.

Resumen
This essay focusses on issues connected with research into the history of exported porcelain from the Far East. To this end, it discusses the literary context of the expressions “the family of roses” and “the family of greens,” and also the genesis, main features, and current terminology relating to the two most widespread techniques of glaze-painting decoration (Kangxi wucai 康熙五彩 and falangcai 珐琅彩). The article discusses the most important techniques of decoration that preceded the development of the Kangxi wucai palette and the relations between technological development and the taste of the period. It also indicates the important items in Polish collections, especially in the National Museum in Gdańsk. From the holdings of this museum, the author selects a plate decorated with wild geese on Lake Taihu. An analysis of the plate – with regard to the technology of its production, aesthetics, and iconography – is the main element in the article. Polish items are presented in the context of important European collections: the British Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Musée Guimet, the National Museum in Oslo, and the Museo Correr in Venice. The author formulates a new term in art theory: the aesthetics of double foreignness. It makes it possible to give a name to a phenomenon that develops in the process of reception and analysis of objects produced in one developed and isolated civilization, intended for and commissioned by a second civilization.

The paper considers the conceptual provisions of building a promising cognitive information security system of the museum complex on a cyber-physical basis. The stratified model of cognitive information security system of the museum complex was presented. It was shown that the key technological platform for the security of the museum complex is information and network technologies integrated (converged) with the technologies of industrial artificial intelligence. The generalized structural scheme of the cognitive cycle of the information security system of the museum complex was considered. The characteristic of the basic processes realized in a cognitive contour was given.

Resumen
Abstract In the summer of 1998, Manchester City Council coordinated a series of cele bratory events in and around the city centre, to honour (and generate) the memory of a machine: to be specific, a computer dubbed ‘the Baby’. This was the first electronic computer to be built with a working stored program, and it was fifty years since it had been persuaded finally to calculate something by its designers, who were based at the Victoria University of Manchester. The cele brations included building a precise replica of the machine, at a cost of over 1 million pounds, as well as a full programme of artistic and museum displays, theatre performances, exhibitions, conferences, and parties, all focusing on the theme of information technologies. A range of Manchester’s more established institutions—universities, museums, media organizations, and the electronics manufacturer ICL—all committed resources and organized events.

Resumen
Rapid technological advancement in the pharmaceuticals and chemical industry has led to synthesis of compounds used for health/personal care and industrial products in large amounts. These chemicals of emerging concern (CECs) are consequently released into the environment through industrial emissions, disposal processes, and during use and application. Rapid population growth and urbanization within the Lake Victoria catchment region has inserted tremendous pressure on the environment and its resources, thus resulting to potential point and diverse sources of CECs introduction to the environment. Improper waste disposal and conventional wastewater treatment technology that are practiced in the catchment have not helped in prevention and removal of CECs and other pollutants from the environment. This chapter evaluates the occurrence of CECs mainly in surface and wastewater within the Lake Victoria catchment of Kenya and informs on the fate and diverse health effects that come with their presence in the environment.

Resumen
This article is the result of the research topic "Anti-crisis management during war and local crises", in which anti-crisis management is considered from various, sometimes even atypical, aspects. Post-war recovery of the economy through the revitalization of old industrial and destroyed military districts of Ukraine. The study of the English-speaking pressure on the calculation of management terminology in the conditions of globalization is a kind of anti-crisis linguistic research management. The subject of the research is anti-crisis management with the aim of post-war recovery of Ukraine. Methodology of the study is based on general research methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, observation and abstraction, which are used to systematise achievements in the theory and practice of anti-crisis management. The methods are general scientific and special methods of cognition, research and research literature, scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists on issues of anti-crisis management, post-war reconstruction. The research was conducted as a logical process. The theoretical stage of the research consisted in the collection, systematization and generalization of foreign experience in the revitalization of old industrial districts. The purpose of the research is anti-crisis management during the war and local crises with the aim of rapid recovery of Ukraine in the post-war period both in the economic sphere and improved management terminology. Results. The foreign experience of the old industrial areas (OIA) of the countries of Western and Central Europe and the USA was studied: the steps to restructure the economy of the regions that survived the crisis and decline were analyzed in chronological order. Of great practical and theoretical importance is the study of the approaches of various foreign states to solving the problems of the OIA, finding and implementing new scenarios for their economic development, interaction with national and foreign business, as well as identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the strategies of state regulation of the process of economic revival of the OIA in world practice. Mistakes in the revitalization of old industrial regions have been identified, which should be paid attention to and avoided when adapting Ukraine's economic recovery policy. Common features with similar domestic experience are highlighted and future steps to restore the hospitality industry in Ukraine in the post-war period are outlined. In particular, we are talking about the creation of cultural events (festivals, sports competitions, museum openings, etc.), which in turn should increase tourist flows, including from abroad. For the proper development of tourism, it will be necessary to create accommodation places for guests and places for their meals, for this purpose it will be possible to use the areas of destroyed industrial facilities (factories, plants). The opportunities for the development of industrial tourism in the eastern part of Ukraine are outlined. The article is devoted to the study of foreign loanwords in management terminology. Our goal is to find out the reasons for borrowings, to trace the phonetic, morphological and semantic changes that foreign terms undergo in the process of their assimilation into the Ukrainian language. The lack of thorough scientific research devoted to the study of national and international components in Ukrainian management terminology, the ratio of national and international in it determines the relevance of the study. In the conditions of globalization, tracing terminology is a means of countering English-speaking pressure. In addition, the advantage of tracing, according to the researchers, is the possibility to make the term motivated, besides, if a new concept is indicated in the donor language by a phrase, tracing is almost the only technically possible way of accurate and motivated reproduction of its native language. No matter how rich a natural language is, when creating terms it needs the lexical and word-forming resources of highly developed languages.

Resumen
Using the example of the town of Labin in Istria, I demonstrate how isolation, the so-called periphery, can also serve as an expression of resistance in a cultural niche. The collective Labin Art Express (L.A.E., initiated by Dean Zahtila, late Krešimir Farkaš, Graziano Kršić) is the initiator of the fundamental L.A.E. project Underground City XXI ‒ independent underground Labin cultural city as an alternative to the existing above-ground, heteronomous Labin, i.e. the creation of a real city 150 m below the earth’s surface ‒ in underground halls and tunnels, carved in solid rock, connecting Labin, Raša, Plomin and Rabac, with streets, bars, galleries, swimming pools, playgrounds for children, shops, restaurants, the Museum of Mining and Industry of Istria. Thereby we can compare Labin in terms of urbanity and anthropology with the town of Katowice, which in 2018 was selected to host the most significant UN Climate Change Conference, following the 2015 Paris Agreement. Katowice were chosen as one of Europe’s most polluted sites due to the exploitation of coal i.e. the transition of the aforementioned town from a mining and industrial site to a modern industrial, economical, technological and cultural centre.

Resumen
Bombay did not play the kind of administrative nodal role that first Madras and later Calcutta did in terms of overarching governance in the Indian subcontinent, occupying instead a pivotal position for the region’s commerce and industry. Nonetheless, the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Bombay were a formative age for education and research in science, as in the other Presidencies. A colonial government, a large native population enrolled in the new European-style educational system, and the rise of several institutions of instruction and learning, fostered an environment of scientific curiosity. The Asiatic Society of Bombay (1804), which was initially the hub of research in all disciplines, became increasingly antiquarian and ethnographic through the course of the nineteenth century. The Victoria and Albert Museum (conceived in 1862 and built by 1871 and opened to the public in 1872), was established to carry out research on the industrial arts of the region, taking for its original collections fine and decorative arts that highlight practices and crafts of various communities in the Bombay Presidency. The University of Bombay (1857) was primarily tasked with teaching, and it was left to other establishments to conduct research. Key institutions in this regard included the Bombay Natural History Society (1883) given to local studies of plants and animals, and the Haffkine Institute (1899), which examined the role of plague that had been a dominant feature of the social cityscape from 1896. The Royal Institute of Science (1920) marked a point of departure, as it was conceived as a teaching institution but its lavish funding demanded a research agenda, especially at the post-graduate level. The Prince of Wales Museum (1922) would prove to be seminal in matters of collection and display of objects for the purpose of research. All of these institutions would shape the intellectual debates in the city concerning higher education. Typically founded by European colonial officials, they would increasingly be administered and staffed by Indians.

Resumen
Amos B. Smith III of the University of Pennsylvania found (Synlett 2009, 3131) that the advanced SAMP intermediate 1 could be deprotected to 2 without racemization under mild oxidative conditions. Akihiko Ouchi of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Tsukuba, showed (Organic Lett. 2009, 11, 4870) that the C-Te of 3 was easily oxidized to the aldehyde 4. Secondary C-Te bonds were converted to ketones. Asit K. Chakraborti of NIPER prepared (J. Org. Chem. 2009, 74, 5967) esters by warming an acid 5 with an alcohol 6 in the presence of acidic silica gel. Gilles Quéléver of Aix-Marseille Université established (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 4346) that a cyanomethyl ester 8, readily prepared from the acid, efficiently exchanged with an alcohol 9 to give the ester 10. Martin J. Lear of the National University of Singapore protected (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 5267) an alcohol 11 as the p -methoxybenzyl ether 13 under mild conditions (AgOTf/DTBMP) with the new reagent 12 . Isao Kadota of Okayama University selectively removed (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 4552) the primary PMB ether from 14 to give 15. Hiromishi Fujioka of Osaka University, starting (Organic Lett. 2009, 11, 5138) from 16, was able to selectively prepare either the primary protected 18 or the secondary protected 19. In other developments (not pictured), Mattie S. M. Timmer and Brendan A. Burkett of Victoria University of Wellington devised (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 7199) a convenient preparation for azulene-containing α-keto esters. The distinctively colored protecting group was conveniently removed in the presence of other esters by treatment with o-phenylenediamine. Scott D. Taylor of the University of Waterloo established (J. Org. Chem. 2009, 74, 9406) a robust protocol for converting alcohols to the corresponding protected sulfates. P. Shanthan Rao of the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad, showed (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 7099) that an amine 20 was formylated by warming with formic acid in the presence of ZnCl2. The easily hydrolyzed formamide 21 is readily converted to the corresponding isonitrile. Shiyue Fang of Michigan Technological University selectively monoacylated (Tetrahedron Lett. 2009, 50, 5741) the symmetrical diamine 22 using phenyl esters.

Resumen
The early Spanish adventurers came to America primarily to mine precious metals. Some colonists in eastern North America also had hopes of finding gold and silver, but more turned to the abundant timber and water resources of the New World and undertook lumbering and ironmaking to produce goods for export to the mother country. Through the next 200 years, most American industrial entrepreneurs used energy from wood and from flowing water. Water was a renewable resource, while wood was so abundant that new sources were easily found when a local supply was depleted. The years in which wood had a dominant place in American technology have been described by historian Brooke Hindle as “America’s Wooden Age”; on much of the continent, metal was used only where wood would not serve, as in nails, gun barrels, and cooking pots. Iron was the only metal made in significant quantities in North America during the Wooden Age. Settlers along the American coast reached the roadless interior by ascending the numerous rivers and, until well into the nineteenth century, preferred to move heavy or bulky cargoes by boat or raft. They used the flow and drop of water in streams as their principal source of mechanical power for industry, and only after 1870 did Americans generate more power with steam engines than with waterwheels.” Visitors to Old Sturbridge Village, a living-history museum in Massachusetts that re-creates community life in the early years of the nineteenth century, find wooden buildings, tools made of wood and iron, the smell of wood smoke, and machinery powered by waterwheels. Along the east coast, wood, water in lakes and streams, and iron ore were abundant but had to be used near where they were found until entrepreneurs with access to capital and technological expertise built canals, railways, and, later, electrical power-transmission systems. A craftsman who started a shop with human-powered machinery in town and subsequently wanted to use water power often had to move to a rural site. As more people did this, they spread manufacturing over the landscape or the Northeast.

Resumen
The concept of Smart Tourism has developed rapidly within the Smart Cities paradigm, which emerged at the beginning of the new millennium in various scientific fields. Museums, traditionally centres of cultural and technological dissemination and display, are becoming places to experiment with smart technologies (digital survey, AR, VR, digital fabrication, and AI) for analytical purposes and to enhance the visitor experience. This technological revolution affects the way museum visitors interact with cultural heritage. This process is part of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and is based on multiple technologies that blend physical and virtual environments. These tools have shown benefits for accessing, comparing, and understanding space-related information about artefacts and advantages in developing compelling forms of storytelling aimed at visitors. Trying to give an overview of the technologies used, which have some relevance to the disciplinary field of representation, one can talk about digital acquisition techniques, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, digital fabrication, and artificial intelligence. The models obtained with different digital acquisition techniques allow new ways of content fruition. Both virtual and physical outputs aim to increase the inclusiveness of collections, meeting the various needs of users related to age, physical, sensory, cognitive, cultural, and experiential factors. The paper presents the outcomes of some experiments conducted in Museo d'Arte Orientale of Turin aimed to explore the continuum between real and virtual in the museum field through intelligent technologies. The experiments illustrate how to integrate AR technologies into the enjoyment of content, inside and outside the museum, with the support of real models.

Resumen
Screw presses were machines widely used in various industrial sectors at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, among which the minting of coins stands out. In the Museum of the Royal Factories of Riópar (Albacete, Spain) there is a unique screw press, built in Paris at the beginning of the 19th century by the Delalande. Due to its structure and characteristics, it seems that its drive has been modified on at least two occasions, going from an initial design of a flywheel press with manual operation by several operators to the type of friction spindle with hydraulic wheel drive, for, to from 1940, be operated by an electric motor, as corresponds to its current configuration. Due to its age, characteristics and excellent state of conservation, this press is considered to have an important patrimonial and technological value. In the present work, we will proceed to the study of this screw press and the evolution of its typology throughout the two centuries of its existence. Its digital modeling is also considered, as well as the simulation of its operations. A comparative study of this press will be carried out with others of a similar structure, available at the Museum of the “Real Casa de la Moneda” of Segovia (Spain) and at the Museum “Casa de la Moneda” of the Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre (National Mint and Stamp Factory) in Madrid. Finally, it should be noted that this year marks the 250th anniversary of the creation of these Royal Factories, during the reign of Carlos III.

Resumen
Throughout most mankind’s history our daily life artifacts have been designed, produced, and used with respect for social and environmental constrains and within the carrying capacity of ecosystems. Also, they have been created to fulfill tangible and specific needs (not desires) of individuals and communities to their daily tasks and have sustained a thorough process of evolution and adaptation to the cultural and environmental context and, so, have been perfected over time. It has been only with the technological and cultural changes implemented with the industrial revolution that several unbalances have been created in the relation between our material culture and the natural world. It stands to reason that there are lessons to be learned from those previous times, from their habits and, with a design perspective, from their products. This paper presents an analysis of vernacular objects identifying design features related to morphology, functionality, production, material, and use. This text presents as case study a set of vernacular objects from the rural life collection of the Portuguese National Museum of Ethnology. The analysis was made with support of literature, drawing and photography, and adapting some examples from previous studies of vernacular heritage and architecture. These products serve as example of the incorporation of circular product design strategies.
