    paper AI and the Future of Weather Forecasting

    Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way we predict the weather. Instead of relying only on traditional physics-based models, scientists are now using decades of atmospheric data and machine learning to deliver faster, more accurate, and more affordable forecasts. This video explains how AI is reshaping weather prediction worldwide — from harnessing satellite reanalysis to building high‑resolution models, reducing costs, and supporting sustainability. It also highlights the global collaboration driving these advances, and the challenges of ensuring every country has equal access to this powerful technology.

    paper Echoes from the Nakba: A Childhood in Beit Safafa

    As part of a graduate course I am currently taking in digital storytelling we were asked to create a 5 minute long piece of either fiction or documentary.

    Having had the idea of recording my father’s childhood memories for years now I took this as an opportunity to do just that.

    Echoes from the Nakba: A Childhood in Beit Safafa is a short documentary built around an interview I conducted with my father, in which he recounts elements of his childhood.
