<b>Children & Their Culture</b> - The Chick-fil-A Alice
No full text"The Chick-fil-A Alice" considers a VERY condensed version of Alice in Wonderland being given to children by a fast-food chain as part of a literacy and family values campaign. August and Clare Imholtz discuss the amazing things done in fewer than twenty pages

POKEMON POETRY:
Transhuman/transmedia/transcultural/translative
Traversing a sea of broken screens, we build a new city.
We transmutate what is lost, we undo a history.
In this performative lecture, we attempt a theorisation of certain methodological gestures towards a trans-disciplinary future: zapping and flicking between media, genres, ideas. By utilising examples from our own work, as well as drawing theoretical arguments by a wide variety of future-oriented disciplines such as post-human, transgender and psychoanalytic studies we attempt to build a connective schema where the idea of passing from one medium to another is discussed and problematised in relation to new realities of embodied methodologies. In this context, we take into account certain technological advancements on the domain of prosthetic augmentation, debates on the relations between spatial reality and virtual phenomenology, and relevant input from queer theorisations of the gendered body. The main case study we will focus on is our work Pokemon Poetry, a work-in-progress that we have presented on a number of occasions, transforming and mutating into different media over the years
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
Architecture de communication pour les réseaux d’instrumentation sans fil
No full textAujourd'hui les réseaux de capteurs sont devenus des systèmes pouvant atteindre un très grand nombre de noeuds, avec une zone de couverture déterminée et déployés d'une manière plus ou moins dense dans un environnement hétérogène dont on mesure ainsi son état global. La problématique de cette thèse consiste à concevoir une architecture pour les objets communicants à faible consommation en utilisant des antennes « intelligentes » pour l'instrumentation et la mesure. Intégrant une approche pluridisciplinaire, cette architecture couvre les services offerts depuis les couches MAC jusqu'à celles de plus haut niveau. Basés sur une partie matérielle complètement reconfigurable (amplificateur de puissance et antennes à base de MEMS RF), les services des couches supérieures sont définis en partie sur circuits numériques pour la couche physique (bande de base) et la couche MAC, et de manière logicielle pour les protocoles de routages adaptés et les services innovants. En résumé, le travail consiste à concevoir un système autonome multi capteurs, d'acquisition et de traitement avec mémorisation, communicant à travers un réseau sans fil. Les principaux problèmes à résoudre seront : le contrôle de la topologie, la précision de la synchronisation, la consommation d'énergie. ABSTRACT : Researches in the field of sensor networks show the variety and vastness of applications in which these types of systems are used. One of their main features is the large number (up to hundreds of elements) of sensors that must be distributed in different environments. Another concern consists in making routing decisions in order to reduce the energy consumption. Depending on the application requirements, ensuring synchronous network functionality is currently a challenge. The issue addressed in this thesis is to develop an architecture for smart objects using low-power antennas for structural heald monitoring. Integrating a multidisciplinary approach, this architecture includes services from the MAC layer to those of the highest level. In summary, we will develop an autonomous system ofi sensors, for acquisition and information processing, which communicate via a wireless network. The main problems are: the control of topology, the timing accuracy and the energy consumption
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
