    Repositioning the graphic designer as researcher

    No full text
    In academic terms, the discipline of graphic design is relatively young. Consequently the position of the discipline within academic territory, and the role of the designer, continue to be debated. In part, these debates have been a product of attempts to define and defend the discipline’s borders from within, in order to establish a sense of the role of graphic design and the graphic designer as commensurate with other disciplines both within and beyond art and design. In recent years graphic designers have variously been defined as ‘authors’, ‘producers’ and ‘readers’, yet none of these definitions seem to have provided any kind of productive or lasting impact within the academy. This paper suggests that rather than continue to seek territorial definitions and positions from within, it could be more productive to look beyond the confines of the discipline. Gaining a broader, interdisciplinary perspective on, and understanding of, qualitative research methods from other disciplines may enable the graphic designer to more fully position his or her practice within the wider academy. Such a perspective could help facilitate the repositioning and redefinition of the graphic designer as ‘researcher’ - a move that would be productive in relation to the future development of postgraduate research within the discipline

    From High Line to Hudson

    No full text
    "From High Line to Hudson" focuses on reconnecting the waterfront to its inner city grid. The project is based in the area of Chelsea in Manhattan, New York City. Much of New York City’s waterfronts have become disconnected to its inner public realm. In the case of Manhattan, multi-lane highways and large industrial lots exist in some areas to act as a physical barrier, vastly reducing the chance for the waterfronts to be properly utilised. This design proposal will act as a stepping stone between the High Line and the Hudson River, creating a physical connection between the city grid and the waterfront, with a focus on pedestrian traffic.Delta InterventionsArchitectureArchitecture and The Built Environmen

    Polyphony and the anxiety of influence in the fiction of Henry James

    No full text
    James's fiction, especially in the Middle Phase, centres on the figure of the artist and is characterized by, the two interrelated aspects which previous criticism has largely overlooked: the Bakhtinian 'polyphonic' -creation of 'author-thinkers'; and the conflict between ephebes and precursors, for which Harold-Bloom's concept of 'the-anxiety of influence' is the most illuminating model. Polyphony is the narrative mode, and influence is the intra-artistic, theme. These, as the Introduction to the thesis makes clear, are rehearsed in James's inaugural novel, Roderick Hudson. Rowland Mallet is an author-thinker, and his failure is caused by authorial limitations. His monologism -is impaired by his mistaking empathy for the authorial sympathy. Likewise, Hudson's failure does not arise from a mercurial temperament, but from a polyphonic shortcoming: not possessing the power of fiction to contain the fiction of power in, his mentor. And the relationships among the three artists - Gloriani, Hudson and Singleton - perfectly exemplify the Bloomian-theme. It is these two concepts, polyphony and influence, which are the major preoccupation in the Middle Phase; as, the works chosen demonstrate. These are a novella, a novel, and a number of short stories all of which have been unjustifiably neglected. Chapter One, on The Aspern Papers, argues that Tina Bordereau, far from being, the artless victim seen by many critics, actually challenges and defeats the narrator by the very form of her narrative. Her 'realist' discourse undermines his language of 'romance', and shows up its internal unstability. Chapter Two is an extensive study of the critical reception of The Tragic Muse. The most common areas of critical attention have been its contemporary topicality, its relation to previous novels on similar themes, and the possible genealogy of Gabriel Nash. Those have all missed the core of the work. - Chapter Three demonstrates how polyphony and the anxiety of influence make the novel what it really is. Influence arises from the juxtaposition of, and the wrestling between, artistic ephebes and their precursors (Nick and Nash,, Miriam and Madame Carre). The dialogic quality defined by Bakhtin is crucial to the proper, and even-handed, characterization of all, the conflicts in the novel. And since most of James's tales in the eighties and nineties -are about 'masters - and acolytes, the anxiety of influence remains central. Chapter Four is a study of 'The Author of Beltraffiol' and 'The Lesson of the Master'. Again the characters' manipulations are a crucial focus in a way that G6rard Genette's terminology helps to illuminate. The fact that the ephebe is the author-thinker emphasizes the inextricability of the Bakhtinian and the Bloomian in James. Just as polyphony offers a different focus for explicating the poetics of James's fiction; so the ephebal conflict provides the basis for a fresh perception of James's own artistic struggle

    Hudson Region?

    No full text
    Resumen: En el presente artículo postulamos la existencia de lo que denominamos Región Hudson. Para ello elegimos el nombre de región (Molina y Varela; Heredia), pero enriquecemos el concepto con lo que regionalidad (Arendt) y biorregión (McGinnis et alii) tienen para aportar. A su vez, nuestra mirada sobre esta región es eco, de acuerdo con algunos de los teóricos del amplio espectro de la ecocrítica, especialmente Mathews, Naess y Fukuoka. Esta elección parece el devenir natural para considerar un autor como William Henry Hudson, preocupado por el conservacionismo natural desde el siglo XIX. Así, damos notas de lo que consideraremos región; tomaremos para la región Hudson los elementos cognitivos indicados para ello por Mariana N. Saua y finalmente veremos cómo se concreta esta región. No es una propuesta que parte de lo abstracto, sino de constatar que en la zona del Río de la Plata son las muchas producciones que, de distintas maneras, se ubican en la estela de Hudson en cuanto a: el amor por la naturaleza, su percepción como vivencia íntima y, luego, la puesta en discurso. Aquí, además de considerar su Allá lejos y hace tiempo (1918), añadimos las obras Allá en lo verde Hudson (2012), de Arnaldo Calveyra; Libro de horas (2015), de Laura Forchetti; y Ornitología para principiantes (2018), de Daniel Dellazuana.Abstract: In this article we postulate the existence of what we call Hudson Region. For this we choose the name of region (Molina y Varela; Heredia), but we enrich the concept with what regionality (Arendt) and bioregion (McGinnis et alii) have to contribute. In turn, our perspective on this region is eco, according to some of the theorists of the broad spectrum of ecocriticism, especially Mathews, Naess and Fukuoka. This choice seems to be the natural course when considering an author like William Henry Hudson, who has been concerned with natural conservation since the 19th century. Thus, we seek for notes of what we will consider region. We will use for the Hudson Region the cognitive elements indicated for it by Mariana N. Saua and finally we will test this region is specified. It is not an abstract proposal but is born from verifying that in Río de la Plata area exist many productions that, in different ways, are located in Hudson‘s wake, in terms of: love for nature, its perception as an intimate experience and, later, setting it in discursive means. Here, in addition to considering his Far Away and Long Ago (1918), we add the works Allá en lo verde Hudson (2012), by Arnaldo Calveyra; Libro de horas (2015), by Laura Forchetti; and Ornitología para principiantes (2018), by Daniel Dellazuana
