Bala Aga
No full textKarya Seni Bala Aga memiliki sumber kreatif dari sejarah adannya Desa Belega di
Kecamatan Blahbatuh, Kabupaten Gianyar. Bala artinya prajurit dan Aga artinya asli.
sehingga nama Desa Belega bila dikaitkan dengan keberadaan dari masyarakatnya sampai
sekarang, Desa Belega dipercaya sebagai keturunan masyarakat (prajurit) asli dari Maha Patih
Kebo Iwa. Karakter dari Bala Aga tersebut yang ingin ditranformasikan oleh penata ke dalam
sebuah tari kreasi baru dengan bentuk bebarisan. Tema yang digunakan adalah kepahlawan,
karena Bala Aga merupakan cikal bakal dari adanya Desa Belega. Dalam proses penciptaanya
digunakan metode menurut Alma M. Hawkins dalam Buku Mencipta Lewat Tari terjemahan
dari buku Creating Through Dance oleh Y. Sumandiyo Hadi tahun 1990 yang dijabarkan
mengenai tahapan-tahapan tentang proses penciptaan sebuah karya tari , yakni: exsploration
(penjajagan), improvisation (percobaan), dan forming (pembentukan). Tahapan tersebut
sangat penting digunakan sebagai jembatan penata untuk proses penciptaannya. Bentuk dari
sajian pertunjukannya disusun dalam sebuah struktur karyanya yang dibagi menjadi tiga
bagian, yakni: bagian pertama mengambarkan bagaimana kegagahan dari Bala Aga itu
sendiri, bagian kedua mengambarkan ketangkasan Bala Aga dalam mempergunakan tombak
sebagai senjata perang, dan bagian ketiga mengambarkan sekelompok Bala Aga yang gagah
perkasa dan membawa tombak sebagai senjata perang.

Globalization from top and below: (re)framing (brazilian) margins in two north-american documentaries
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2010This dissertation analyzes the configuration of socioeconomic and national margins in two contemporary North-American documentaries entirely filmed in Brazil--Favela Rising (Jeff Zimbalist and Matt Mochary, 2005) and Manda Bala (Jason Kohn, 2008). In an attempt to contribute to the research on the representation of Brazil in foreign films, the investigation draws upon concepts such as globalization (Appadurai, 1996; Jameson, 2003), identity (Min-ha, 1997), and difference (Appadurai, 1996; Bhabha, 1996) to approach the documentaries not as fixed representations of a given reality, but as cultural texts that might or not be articulated through the notion of nation. The hypothesis is that the analyzed documentaries are sites for the configuration of margins and, for that reason, are privileged instances to observe the constitution of identities and differences. The conclusion-reached through individual and comparative analyses-is that the documentaries present very distinct articulations of socioeconomic and national margins. On one hand, Manda Bala, through an argumentative and circular structure, reinforces socioeconomic identities circumscribed by a Brazilian national margin. Besides presenting a totalizing portrayal of Brazil, Manda Bala reproduces a colonial gaze that fixes Brazilian society as cannibal, and reinforces the dominant gaze that it seeks to criticize. On the other hand, Favela Rising, through a mainly narrative structure, moves the gaze of national proportions towards the favela of Vigário Geral, in Rio de Janeiro. Less than creating a micro-portrait of Brazil, Favela Rising suggests the existence of social formations beyond national margins, whose political strength exists in its refusal of the negative difference imposed by socioeconomic margins. Another conclusion is that the documentaries present, in an opposite and complementary manner, contradictory forces at play in globalization
Prabha Bala oral history interview and transcript
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of oral history interviews conducted by the Chao Center for Asian Studies at Rice University. This collection includes audio recordings and transcripts of interviews with Asian Americans native to or living in Houston.Prabha Bala was born in 1948 in Shimla, India. She grew up in various parts of India and
went to school in Chennai where she developed an interest in the classical Indian arts. She moved to
Houston in 1971 with her husband and since then, has witnessed the development of Indian culture and
community in the City of Houston. An extension of her deep interest in classical Indian music and
dance, Mrs. Bala helped found the Classical Arts Society of Houston and worked on the Asian Arts
subcommittee in the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. She has also been involved with many non-profit
organizations such as the India-American Charity Foundation, Teach for America, and Daya. In this
interview, Mrs. Bala discusses her passion for the arts, her involvement in numerous organizations, her
thoughts on the growth of Houston and India, and her favorite life advice

Natural Variation of the Circadian Clock in Neurospora
No full textMost living organisms on earth experience daily and expected changes from the rotation of the earth. For an organism, the ability to predict and prepare for incoming stresses or resources is a very important skill for survival. This cellular process of measuring daily time of the day is collectively called the circadian clock. Because of its fundamental role in survival in nature, there is a great interest in studying the natural variation of the circadian clock. However, characterizing the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying natural variation of circadian clocks remains a challenging task. In this chapter, we will summarize the progress in studying natural variation of the circadian clock in the successful eukaryotic model Neurospora, which led to discovering many design principles of the molecular mechanisms of the eukaryotic circadian clock. Despite the success of the system in revealing the molecular mechanisms of the circadian clock, Neurospora has not been utilized to extensively study natural variation. We will review the challenges that hindered the natural variation studies in Neurospora, and how they were overcome. We will also review the advantages of Neurospora for natural variation studies. Since Neurospora is the model fungal species for circadian study, it represents over 5 million species of fungi on earth. These fungi play important roles in ecosystems on earth, and as such Neurospora could serve as an important model for understanding the ecological role of natural variation in fungal circadian clocks.Advances in Genetics, Vol. 99
