Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Aksaray Azmi Milli T. A. Ş.
No full textAksaraylılar, Milli Mücadele yıllarında Kuvayı Milliye'ye destek vermek için Azmi Milli Cemiyeti'ni kurarak faaliyete geçirmişler, ülkenin kurtuluşunda etkin olmuşlardır. Kurtuluş Savaşı'nın yaşandığı varlık-yokluk mücadelesinden alnının akıyla çıkan Türkiye'nin, önünde yeni bir mücadele daha vardı: İktisadi yönden de bağımsız ve kendi kendine yetebilen bir ülke olabilmek.Bunun için ülkede iktisadi kalkınmanın gerektirdiği işlere bir an evvel başlanacaktı. İzmir İktisat Kongresi de bu amaçla toplanmıştır. Bu kongrede alınan kararlar, devlete özgüven, halka moral, müteşebbislere fırsat vermiştir. Bir milletin ölüm-kalım mücadelesinde kurulan Azmi Milli Cemiyeti, İzmir İktisat Kongresi'nden yaklaşık bir yıl sonra kurulan şirketin de ismi olmuştur.Azmi Milli T.A.Ş. 1924 yılında iş adamı Mustafa Vehbi Çorakçı'nın önderliğinde halkın gayreti ile kurulmuştur. 250.000 TL sermaye ile kurulan şirket 1926 yılında hidroelektrik enerjisiyle elektrik ve son sistem teknoloji ile un üretimine başlamıştır.Fabrikanın açılışına katılamayan Türkiye Cumhuriyeti reisicumhuru, başvekili ve ticaret bakanı telgraf göndermişlerdir. Kullanılan elektrik şehrin gecesini gündüze çevirirken, üretilen kaliteli unlar Aksaray'ın her yerde adını duyuran markası olmuştur. Kızılay, askeri birlikler başta olmak üzere Türkiye'nin önemli kurumları ve şirketleri Azmi Milli T.A.Ş. unlarını tercih etmişlerdir. Şirket ayrıca buzdolabının olmadığı yıllarda halkın gıda maddelerinin bozulmaması için soğuk hava deposunu faaliyete geçirmiştir. Şirket bu depolarda buz kalıpları da üretmiştir.Anadolu'nun ortasında, yolların kavşak noktasında, kadim bir şehir olan Aksaray'daki bu iktisadi hareketlilik cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında Türkiye'nin vitrinlerinden birisini oluşturmuştur. Elbette bu başarıda Aksaray'ın ilk mebuslarından Vehbi Çorakçı'nın gayreti inkar edilemez. Kurtuluş Savaşı'nda ordunun ihtiyacı olan develeri üzerindeki buğdaylarla birlikte orduya bağışlayacak kadar cömert olan Vehbi Bey, cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında Aksaray'a birçok yenilik getirmiştir. Aksaray'ın müstakil bir vilayet olması hakkında çıkan kararda Vehbi Bey'in katkısı ve gayreti inkâr edilemeyecek kadar açıktır. Aksaray Halk İktisat Bankası'nın hizmete girmesi de onun çabalarıyla olmuştur. Vehbi Çorakçı'nın çalışmalarını, cömertliğini unutmayan Aksaraylılar adını bir caddeye vermişlerdir.Aksaray'ın iktisadi yönden kalkınmasının yanında, sosyal yaşamda da etkin olan şirket 2002 yılına kadar faaliyetini sürdürdükten sonra kapanmıştır. Aksaray Belediyesi'ne geçen tarihi bina, yakın zamanda sanayi ve bilim müzesi olarak hizmete devam edecektir.The people of Aksaray have established and activated the community of ` Azmi Milli ` to support national struggle and became active on salvation of the country. Turkey , won by hard work from the struggle of existence , had a struggle again that had to win it ; to be able to have capability of itself and the independence in term of industry.It was going to being started the important works that were necessarity of industry in the country. İzmir Industry Congress was held for that purpose too. The decisions that were taken in that congress caused self-confidence for goverment, morale for public and opportunity for entrepreneurs. The ` Azmi Milli ` community that was founded in the time of struggle of existence of a nation has also got the name of the company that had been founded almostly a year after Izmir Industry Congress. Azmi Milli T.A.Ş was founded by the public?s will with the leadership of Mustafa Vehbi Çorakcı in 1924. Company ,founded by 250.000 TL capital , started to wheat and produce flour by the means of hydroelectric electiricity and the last system technology.The president of Turkish republic, prime minister and minister of commerce who couldn?t attend the opening of the factory sent telegraph. While the used electricity lighting the city?s night, Meanwhile quality flours became the trademark of Aksaray in country. The important institutions and companies of Turkey especially Kızılay, military units prefered flours of Azmi Milli T.A.Ş. Moreover the company activated the cold storage to ignore of spoiling of foodstuffes of the public in the years of refrigeretor wasn?t available. The company also produced huge iceboxes in those storages.These industrial movements in Aksaray which is a ancient city in the middle of Anatolia and also in crossroads point of roads have founded one of the visions in the first years of Republic. Absolutely the enthusiasm of Vehbi Çorakcı who was one of the first representative of Aksaray can?t be denied.Sir Vehbi , generous as to donate the camels with the wheats on them as for the needs of army in the Turkish was of Independence met Aksaray with a lot of improvements. It is so clear of Sir Vehbi?s contribution and effort that about the decision of Aksaray?s being seperate a city. Moreover, Aksaray Public Industry Bank?s opening was also a final of his efforts. Today, the people of Aksaray remember the workings and generosity of Vehbi Çorakçı and gives his name for a street in memory of him.`Azmi Milli? company, not only has been active in term of industrial and also in social life too , resumed its activities and closed in2002.Then, acquisition of property of that historical building passed to Aksaray municipality and that historical place will keep up serving as industry and science museum soon
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

No full textDispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

We examined students in a college course who learned about one scholar's ideas through watching an audiovisual TV interview (i.e., visible author format) and about another scholar's ideas through reading a formal text description (i.e., invisible author format). For the invisible author, native language speakers scored significantly higher than the non-native language speakers on a corresponding exam question (i.e., a cognitive measure), generated more words on the exam question (i.e., a motivational measure), and mentioned the author's name more often in answering the exam question (i.e., an affective measure). For the visible author, the groups did not differ on any of these measures. These findings provide evidence for the idea that making the author visible through audiovisual TV interviews can eliminate the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers. 3 Universities around the world serve students who are non-native speakers of th
The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
No full textAbstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
The construction of Karen Karnak: The multi-author-function
No full textThis thesis is situated within the comparatively recent developments of Web 2.0 and the emergence of interactive WikiMedia, and explores the mode of authorship within a Read/Write culture compared to that of a Read/Only tradition. The hypothesis of this study is that the role of the audience has become merged with the author, and as such, represents new functions and attributes, distinct from a more conventional concept of authorship, in which the roles of audience and author are more separate. Read/Write and participatory culture, as defined by this study, is focused on collaboration, and includes the influences of D.I.Y. culture, Open-Source practices and the production of text by multiple authors. Multi-authorship presents a re-thinking of several concepts which support the notion of the individual author, since the focus of multi-authorship is not on attribution and ownership of a finished text, but on the continued malleability of a text. Modes of multi-authorship, demonstrated in the use of the pseudonyms Alan Smithee and Karen Eliot, represent declarative authors whose names signify multiple origins, whilst concurrently indicating a distinct body of work. The function of these names form an important context to this study, since primary research involves the construction of an experimental mode of multi-authorship utilising WikiMedia technology and the interaction of thirty nine participants, who are invited to create a body of work under the collective pseudonym Karen Karnak. The data generated by this experiment is analysed using aspects of Michel Foucault's author-function to identify and determine power structures inherent in the WikiMedia context. The interplay of power structures, including concepts such as identity, ownership and the body of work, affect the resulting mode of authorship and contribute to the construction of Karen Karnak, suggesting further areas of research into the emerging multi-author
