3. BLUE YE WINDElizabeta Sitņikova, Inga Šlangena, Eliza Cipruse, other performed works Abstract: Inspired by Rosi Braidotti's posthumanist theory, this collective artwork, born from a blend of human and non-human creative forces, ventures beyond the human subject. It reveals unexpected artistic materializations where machines, like invasive species, permeate the natural environment. As the workshop particpants resonated with the disenfranchised maritime landscapes, they now take the audience along to question the boundaries between their nature and the blue expanse. Through sensory engagement that deprioritizes the visual, the audience is invited to reframe their perception and interaction with the sea, and their consistency of and with water.
Keywords: performance, happening, artwork, posthumanism, blue humanities

4. Non-oxidative calcination enhances the methane dry reforming performance of ▫$Ni/CeO_{2−x}$▫ catalysts under thermal and photo-thermal conditionsKristijan Lorber, Vasyl Shvalya, Janez Zavašnik, Damjan Vengust, Iztok Arčon, Matej Huš, Andraž Pavlišič, Janvit Teržan, Uroš Cvelbar, Blaž Likozar, Petar Djinović, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: We analyzed the effect of the calcination atmosphere and visible-light contribution to an accelerated
reaction rate and improved H2 selectivity over 2 wt% Ni/CeO2−x nanorod catalysts. Spectroscopic and
structural characterization was performed by operando DRIFTS, in situ Raman, UV-vis and XAS
techniques, which were complemented by DFT calculations. Calcination in an argon or H2 atmosphere
yields 15% more active catalysts in the thermally driven reaction, which are also more susceptible to
light-induced rate acceleration compared to the catalyst calcined in air. The most active 2Ni/CeO2
catalyst calcined in hydrogen converts methane with a rate of 7.5 mmol (gcat min)−1 and produces a H2/
CO ratio of 0.6 at 460 °C when stimulated by a combination of visible light and thermal energy. In the
absence of visible light illumination and at an identical catalyst temperature, the achieved methane rate
was 4.2 mmol (gcat min)−1 and the H2/CO ratio was 0.49. The non-oxidative calcination improves nickel
dispersion and the formation of subnanometer sized Ni clusters, together with a higher abundance of
surface and bulk oxygen vacancies in ceria nanorods. The Ni–Ov–Ce3+components constitute the
catalytically active sites under visible light illumination, which enable the DRM reaction to proceed with
an Ea value of 20 kJ mol−1. Visible light also induces the following changes in the 2Ni/CeO2−x catalyst
during the DRM reaction: (1) decomposition and desorption of carbonates from the nickel–ceria
interface sites, (2) reduced population of nickel surface with carbonyl species and (3) promoted
adsorption and dissociation of methane.
Keywords: methane dry reforming performance, calcination

5. Defining worst-performing buildings in Slovenia based on EPCsMarjana Šijanec-Zavrl, Henrik Gjerkeš, 2023, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: The 2021 EC proposal for EPBD recast planned inter alia the harmonization of energy performance certificates (EPCs) across EU and definition of minimum energy performance (MEP) standards to support the renovation of worst-performing buildings. Rescaling of EPCs to a common EU ranking and consequently setting MEP standards is a task for the near future, but current planning of building renovation to meet decarbonization by 2050 may only relay on data in Slovenian EPCs from 2013-2022 data base. The paper presents the analysis of energy related indicators in existing Slovenian EPCs in order to demonstrate that existing EPCs issued in last decade can be used to define 15% of worst-performing buildings prioritized for deep and NZEB renovation, if combined with other indicators, like heat demand.
Keywords: energy performance indicators, decarbonization, energy efficiency, building renovation

6. Implementation of the EPBD in Slovenia – Status in 2020Marjana Šijanec Zavrl, Miha Tomšič, Henrik Gjerkeš, Erik Potočar, 2021, final research report Abstract: The Concerted Action EPBD (CA EPBD) addresses the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). It aims to contribute to the reduction of energy use in European buildings, through the exchange of knowledge and best practices in the field of energy efficiency and energy savings between all 28 EU Member States plus Norway.
The CA EPBD is a joint initiative between the EU Member States and the European Commission. It involves representatives of national ministries or their affiliated institutions who are in charge of preparing the technical, legal and administrative framework for the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in each EU Member State, plus Norway. The objective is to enhance the sharing of information and experiences from national adoption and implementation of this important European legislation.
The transposition of the EPBD in Slovenia is the overall responsibility of the Ministry of Infrastructure and was primarily transposed by the Energy Act (EZ-1), covering the topics of NZEB, energy performance certification, inspection of heating and AC systems and energy efficiency information programmes. The Act on Energy Efficiency (ZURE) integrates the EZ-1 articles related to the EPBD.
The revision of the building codes (PURES) is still in progress and planned for publication in late 2021. It will contain detailed technical requirements for NZEB based on the technical definition given in the national NZEB action plan, and the revision of the calculation methodology according to a new set of CEN EPBD standards.
Important recent steps in EPBD implementation are the application of the central national electronic register of EPCs and associated software, the independent control system for EPCs, first steps in the cross-linking of e-registries for EPCs, inspections and public buildings, as well as wide information activities implemented by the Eco Fund concerning financial instruments available for the energy renovation of buildings.

7. Unlearning tabooPeter Purg, 2023, artistic work Abstract: Along the TTT 2023 programme, the performer selected and remixed fragments of both
artworks (installations and performances) as well as discursive contributions in a
way that corresponds to the principles of Bertolt Brecht’s “Lehrstücke,” the so-called
learning or teaching pieces that deconstruct and expose the mechanisms of (power)
relationships inherent to the (media/art) system in question.
Provoking both rational and irrational perspectives, possibilities of (un)learning through
acting, playing roles, adopting postures etc. was explored, dissolving (or at least
questioning) the divide between authors and audiences, both invited (in Brechtian terms)
to acquire attitudes rather than to consume an entertainment.
Keywords: unlearning, deconstruction, roleplay, participative performance, transgressive formats
