# jazz: that was his backup band.

<< Before Belafonte (Harry Belafonte)  could even open his mouth he was joined onstage by bassist Tommy Potter, drummer Max Roach and saxophonist Charlie Parker. Unbeknownst to the young newcomer, the all-star quartet wanted to make sure his first gig was a success. >>

<< “That was my backup band,” Belafonte remembered of the surreal experience. “A little bit later Miles Davis stepped in somewhat reluctantly, but he didn’t want to miss anything … he didn’t miss much anyway. But this is how I was launched into the music business.” >>️

<< By the 1950s, Belafonte was also singing, finding gigs at the Blue Note, the Vanguard and other clubs — he was backed for one performance by Charlie Parker and Max Roach — and becoming immersed in folk, blues, jazz and the calypso he had heard while living in Jamaica. >>

# gst: pattern generation through turbulent cascades

<< Fully developed turbulence is a universal and scale-invariant chaotic state characterized by an energy cascade from large to small scales where the cascade is eventually arrested by dissipation. In this Letter, (AA) show how to harness these seemingly structureless turbulent cascades to generate patterns. Conceptually, pattern or structure formation entails a process of wavelength selection: patterns typically arise from the linear instability of a homogeneous state. By contrast, the mechanism (they) propose here is fully non-linear and triggered by a non-dissipative arrest of turbulent cascades. Instead of being dissipated, energy piles up at intermediate scales. Using a combination of theory and large-scale simulations, (AA) show that the tunable wavelength of these cascade-induced patterns is set by a non-dissipative transport coefficient called odd or gyro viscosity. This non-dissipative viscosity is ubiquitous in chiral systems (..). Beyond chiral fluids, cascade-induced pattern formation could occur in natural systems (..) as well as in industrial processes (..). >>

# gst: like the slender body theory, the effect of curvature on the diffusion of colloidal bananas.

<< Anisotropic colloidal particles exhibit complex dynamics which play a crucial role in their functionality, transport, and phase behavior.  >>️

AA << investigate the two-dimensional diffusion of smoothly curved colloidal rods—also known as colloidal bananas—as a function of their opening angle α >>️

<< the experimental results are consistent with slender body theory, indicating that the dynamical behavior of the particles arises primarily from their local drag anisotropy. These results highlight the impact of curvature on the Brownian motion of elongated colloidal particles, which must be taken into account when seeking to understand the behavior of curved colloidal particles. >>️

# evol: gentle bonobos vs. aggressive chimps ...

<< Among the great apes, the chimpanzees and the bonobos are the most genetically related to us as we share about 98.7% of our DNA with them. >>️

<< So where exactly do humans stand? We seem to have incorporated the traits of both species, resulting in a tension between our aggressive and harmonious proclivities. Our tendency for conflict mirrors the competitiveness of chimpanzees, and yet the bonobos teach us that we have it in us to be altruistic and that society can be organised in more peaceful ways. This selflessness underlies the large-scale cooperation that has helped Homo sapiens share ideas, form nations, explore the universe and outlast other early humans such as Homo erectus. >>️

# gst: emergent organization and polarization due to active fluctuations.

AA << introduce and study a model of active Brownian motion with multiplicative noise describing fluctuations in the self-propulsion or activity. (They) find that the standard picture of density accumulation in slow regions is qualitatively modified by active fluctuations, as stationary density profiles are generally not determined only by the mean self-propulsion speed landscape. As a result, activity gradients generically correlate the particle self-propulsion speed and orientation, leading to emergent polarization at interfaces pointing either towards dense or dilute regions depending on the amount of noise in the system.  >>

# gst: when droplets are capable of self-propulsion as if they were surfing on a self-generated wave.

<< active droplets can move autonomously or oscillate between confining walls (..). Those behaviors could provide a clue about how life emerged from inanimate material. >>️

<< in the past decades, it has become clear that weak physical interactions among biomolecules are a crucial part of the answer. Such interactions allow some molecules to stay together transiently while avoiding others, which can lead to the spontaneous formation of droplets whose composition differs from their surroundings. Although biochemist Alexander Oparin suggested such ideas a century ago (..), experimental corroboration arrived only recently >>️

<< The key contribution of Demarchi and his collaborators is to demonstrate that droplet drift can enhance the heterogeneity of substrate and product. The resulting positive feedback allows droplets to move continuously as if they were surfing on a self-generated wave. >>️

AA << find that condensates move toward the center of a confining domain when this feedback is weak. Above a feedback threshold, they exhibit self-propulsion, leading to oscillatory dynamics. Moreover, catalysis-driven enzyme fluxes can lead to interrupted coarsening, resulting in equidistant condensate positioning, and to condensate division. >>

# gst: the physiological emergence and evolution of cell-spanning vortices (inside Drosophila oocytes).

<< Life in complex systems, such as cities and organisms, comes to a standstill when global coordination of mass, energy, and information flows is disrupted. Global coordination is no less important in single cells, especially in large oocytes and newly formed embryos, which commonly use fast fluid flows for dynamic reorganization of their cytoplasm. Here, (AA) combine theory, computing, and imaging to investigate such flows in the Drosophila oocyte, where streaming has been proposed to spontaneously arise from hydrodynamic interactions among cortically anchored microtubules loaded with cargo-carrying molecular motors. >>️
