Technik-Ästhetik: Zur Theorie techno-ästhetischer Realität
Von Technik und Ästhetik zu sprechen, heißt, sich bereits begrifflich auf ein Feld einzulassen, das mindestens zwei divergente Perspektiven gemeinsam denkt. Dabei haben das Technische wie das Ästhetische die Bedeutung einer Interdependenz aufzuweisen: Das Technische konstituiert einerseits Funktionen, Formen und Gebrauchsaspekte - ästhetische Zustände evozieren andererseits zeichenhafte Realisierungen, phantasmatische Urteile und wahrnehmungsvermittelte Phänomene des Erscheinens. Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes zeigen, wie bei der Konfrontation von Technik und Ästhetik eine Art Verkopplung und intrinsische Dynamik qua techno-ästhetischer Evokation entstehen kann
Embodiment, meaning, and the augmented reality image
This paper investigates the augmented reality (AR) image as an embodied and interactive experience of image “in” location. The analysis of the AR image is specific in this paper to the rediscOvery iPhone app developed by the author. Operating to support a technologically mediated locative- based experience of the Titanic Quarter in Belfast, rediscOvery leverages the potential of the birthplace of the Titanic as the locus of an intervention to make known the symbolic value ascribed to a particular geographical space.To analyze the interconnectedness of meaning in the AR image constructed and the embodied interaction of the user, this paper first traces the historical trajectory of technology mediated projects in visual arts practice where visual perception and meaning have been turned into a condition of embodied interaction of the viewer, both spatially and temporally. This includes Krueger’s Videoplace (1969); Rokeby's Very Nervous System (1986); Sancho Plan (2010); Murder on Beacon Hill (2010), and Cardiff’s The Telephone Call (2001).Using Bergsonian notions of intuition (Kennedy 2000; Hansen 2004) as a basis for analysis of how these visual arts projects demonstrate the capacity of the body to receive, process and make meaningful visual arts practice, this paper subsequently resolves a language of embodiment by which to assess the rediscOvery AR images, in terms of how the images create a distinct model of the world, and one that requires an embodied presence in it

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Variations on the Author
“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Storytelling: Transdisziplinäre Erzählweisen zwischen Design, Kunst, Medienkultur und ästhetischer Tradition
Erzählungen prägen die menschliche Erfahrung seit jeher. Als universelle, kulturübergreifende Praxis begleiten sie die Geschichte der Menschheit und spiegeln die vielfältigen Versuche wider, Lebenswelten zu beschreiben und Sinn zu stiften. Von frühesten mündlichen Überlieferungen bis hin zu modernen, technologiebasierten Medien formen Geschichten unser Verständnis der Welt. Ein moderner und integrierender Storytelling-Begriff verweist gleichermaßen auf den Einsatz von statischen als auch dynamischen Medienformen. Die Darstellungs- und Rezeptionssituationen dieser - zum Teil multimodalen - Medien beeinflussen hierbei auch die spezifischen Formen des Erzählens. Medien prägen Reichweite und Wirkungsumfang des Narrativen. Die Beiträger_innen des vorliegenden Bandes gehen daher der Frage nach, welche möglichen Formen und Interpretationen das transdisziplinäre Storytelling umfasst und wie dieses Konzept für eine ästhetische Perspektivierung fruchtbar gemacht werden kann
