Autonomous Objects
Autonomous Objects is a set of photographs made at ZAD of Notre-Dame-des-Landes. The objects, sculptures and installations produced in-situ share the space with the dwellers and signal their territory.Produced and used to live autonomously on the ground and reply to police and military forces' repeated assaults, they act as testimonies of singular hand-crafted know-how: creativity and protest intertwined. Like some scout movement, the photographic set focuses on various concrete ways to retake hold of material and territorial living, and by revealing the plasticity of that mode of expression, it aims at mapping out the area.

What is the difference between autonomous communities and autonomous cities in Spain?
Autonomous communities in Spain are regions with their own government and legislative powers, such as Catalonia or Andalusia. Autonomous cities, on the other hand, refer to two specific cities, Ceuta and Melilla, which are located in North Africa but are considered integral parts of Spain. While both autonomous communities and cities have a degree of self-governance, autonomous cities have a unique status due to their geographical location outside of mainland Spain.

Human-Centred Autonomous Shipping
Tracing the development of autonomous and automated shipping from a hype of unmanned ships to a more realistic use of automation to augment humans in maritime operations, this book shows why human factors and human-centred design are essential to the endeavour. Themes addressed in the book include technology and cybersecurity, regulation and classification, and competence and skills.It combines commentary and insight from experts across the industry as well as academia and describes a roller-coaster ride from conceptual idea via a period of hype where technologists and engineers enthusiastically advocated a rapid development as many others in the maritime industry felt compelled, but struggled, to follow and finally to a more measured view as cumulative experience started to show the limitations, risks, and the lack of a generic business case. This book is intended for anyone working in, researching in, or simply interested in shipping and the maritime domain and the evolution of autonomous shipping.The target audience includes regulators, educators, researchers, engineers, and manufacturers.

Autonomous Ships and the Law
Interest in autonomous ships has grown exponentially over the past few years.Whereas a few years ago, the prospect of unmanned and autonomous vessels sailing on the seas was considered unrealistic, the debate now centers on when and in what format and pace the development will take place. Law has a key role to play in this development and legal obstacles are often singled out as principal barriers to the rapid introduction of new technologies in shipping.Within a few years, autonomous ships have turned from a non-issue to one of the main regulatory topics being addressed by the International Maritime Organization.However, the regulatory discussion is still in its infancy, and while many new questions have been raised, few answers have been provided to them to date. Increased automation of tasks that have traditionally been undertaken by ships' crews raises interesting legal questions across the whole spectrum of maritime law.The first of its kind, this book explores the issue of autonomous ships from a wide range of legal perspectives, including both private law and public law at international and national level, making available cutting-edge research which will be of significant interest to researchers in maritime law.

Is autonomous driving our future?
Autonomous driving is likely to be a significant part of our future, as it has the potential to improve road safety, reduce traffic congestion, and provide greater mobility for people who are unable to drive themselves. However, there are still many technical, regulatory, and ethical challenges that need to be addressed before autonomous driving becomes widespread. It will also be important to consider the impact of autonomous driving on employment, privacy, and the environment. Therefore, while autonomous driving may play a significant role in our future, it is not without its complexities and considerations.

What is an autonomous province?
An autonomous province is a region within a country that has been granted a certain degree of self-governance and decision-making authority. This means that the province has the power to make its own laws and regulations in certain areas, such as education, culture, and language, while still being part of the larger country. Autonomous provinces often have their own government and administration, and may have the ability to manage their own finances and resources to some extent. This arrangement is often put in place to accommodate the unique cultural, linguistic, or historical characteristics of the region.
