📊Iris: 1hr
📊AJ: 3hrs 30mins 🦾
📊Nan: 2hrs 40mins
• I procrastinated a lot but I managed to get some work done eventually. I’m done reading everything for MM, though I doubt I remember it. I’m also done studying everything for PM. Now I just have to keep revising and doing all the exercises.
📖: Finished A Little Life the day before. Still undecided on my next read.
☀️: A long distance friend called and we talked for so long.
Imepedance Analysis Info⬇️
For today’s fun fact, I have something impedance related. Biological tissue presents a complex electrical resistance, impedance, when electrically stimulated by an alternating voltage. The impedance depends on the tissue, the amount of water present and blah blah basically its composition and how healthy it is.
There are a good amount of impedance based analysis methods that can do all sorts of things; measuring blood volume changes in the blood vessels [electrical impedance plethysmography], measuring the amount of blood the heart pumps beat by beat [impedance cardiography], detecting inhomogeneity of lung ventilation [electrical impedance tomography]. The data can also be used to create individually adapted diets that can influence metabolism more effectively based on body composition [bioelectrical impedance analysis], down with BMI.
I just feel like people think all Archaeology is is trodding around in sand digging for buried treasures, and maybe learning about ancient civilisations (if that). But I don’t think people really know just how big a variety of other subjects is in Archaeology. While studying it I have realised there are so many other subjects involved in Archaeology and that they are all just as important.
Here are the one’s that I can think of:
Anthropology, Linguistics, Politics + law, Economics, Statistics/Demography, Religion, Philosophy, Science, Palaeontology, Geology, Geography, Cartography, Astronomy (more specifically archaeoastronomy) and not to forget all the different kinds of Arts and conservation.
