    Describing typeforms: a designer's response

    No full text
    The paper sets out an overview of a pragmatic research investigation initiated within a doctoral enquiry, and which continues to inform design practice and pedagogy. Located within the fields of typography and information design, and very much concerned with design history, enquiry emphasized exploration of alternative design research methodologies in the production of a design outcome loaded with pedagogical ambition. The issue being addressed within the investigation was the limited scope of existing typeface classificatory systems to adequately describe the diversity of forms represented within current type design practice and thus, recent acquisitions to an established teaching collection in London. Addressing this issue unexpectedly came to utilize the researcher’s own design practice as a methodology for managing emergent enquiry, and for organizing and generating new knowledge through the employment of visual information management methods. A primary outcome of the enquiry was a new framework for the description of typeforms. This new framework will be described in terms of its operation, divergence from existing models and potential for application

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2009.O objetivo deste estudo é apresentar uma análise de como a imagem de Catherine é moldada pelo olhar masculino, como ela enfrenta os três tipos de olhar - o olhar dos personagens, o olhar do leitor, e o olhar do autor - e finalmente, se o olhar masculino é interrompido. O parâmetro teórico desta análise, o conceito do olhar masculino, é teorizado por Laura Mulvey no artigo "Prazer Visual e Cinema Narrativo" (1975) o qual critica a relação entre o olhar masculino e a imagem feminina do prazer visual moldado pela sociedade patriarcal. Através da crítica de Mulvey do prazer visual generizado em filmes, que pertence ao contexto do cinema clássico de Hollywood, articulo sua teoria em relação ao romance Wuthering Heights de Emily Brontë para examinar a dinâmica do olhar masculino em relação à personagem feminina Catherine. Este estudo teve também por objetivo analisar o quanto o paradigma teórico de Mulvey produzido para cinema poderia ser aplicado especificamente em um texto literário escrito no século XIX.The objective of this thesis is to present an analysis of whether Catherine's image has been shaped by the male gaze, how she contends with the three looks of the male gaze - the look of the characters, the look of the reader, and the look of the author - and finally, how the male gaze is broken. The theoretical parameter of this analysis, the concept of the male gaze, is theorized by Laura Mulvey in the article "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema" (1975) which critiques the relation between the male gaze and the female image within the patriarchal molding of visual pleasure. Borrowing Mulvey's critique of the gendering of visual pleasure in films, which pertains to the context of classical Hollywood cinema, I have articulated her theory in relation to Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights, to examine the dynamics of the male gaze regarding the female character, Catherine. This study also aimed at examing the extent to which Mulvey's theoretical paradigm produced for cinema could be articulated specifically in relation to a literary text written in the nineteenth century

    Weight loss interventions in specific groups: Adults with intellectual disabilities and obesity

    No full text
    To understand the needs of individuals with intellectual disabilities (IDs), this chapter will start with a definition of ID, a summary of the prevalence studies of obesity and an outline of the determinants of obesity in this population group. National clinical guidelines [1–2] recommend the use of multicomponent weight loss interventions for the management of obesity. Therefore, the issues around multicomponent weight loss interventions for adults with ID and obesity are discussed in the final part of the chapter

    Diderot and the foreign colonies of Catherine II

    No full text
    R. P. Bartlett, Diderot and the foreign colonies of Catherine II. During his visit to St. Petersburg in 1773-74, Diderot presented to Catherine II an anonymous memorandum on the foreign colonies recently established on the river Volga. The article introduces and prints the text of this paper, which was omitted from P. Vernière's Mémoires pour Catherine II (Paris, 1966). The memorandum analyses the poor state of the colonies and presents a project for their economic and social development. While the analysis of the colonists' difficulties is persuasive, the project is excessively optimistic and would have further oppressed the colonies it was designed to help. Its general approach fitted well with government views after 1774, but there is no evidence that it influenced Catherine II. It is suggested that the author was François Pierre Pictet, at one time Catherine's French-language secretary, and closely involved in the colonies in their early years. Diderot must have been attracted by proposals which seemed to combine personal and property rights for the colonists with economic growth and the development of a third estate.R. P. Bartlett, Diderot et les colonies étrangères de Catherine II. Au cours de sa visite à Saint-Pétersbourg en 1773-1774, Diderot présenta à Catherine II un mémorandum anonyme sur les colonies étrangères, récemment établies sur la Volga. Nous reproduisons ici ce document qui n'a pas été inclus dans P. Vernière, Mémoires pour Catherine II (Paris, 1966), et nous le faisons précéder d'une introduction. Ce mémorandum analyse le triste état des colonies et soumet un projet de développement économique et social pour y remédier. Si l'étude des difficultés rencontrées par les colons emporte la conviction, le projet, en revanche, est excessivement optimiste et son application aurait fini par aboutir à l'oppression des colonies qu'il se proposait d'aider. Les grandes lignes du projet cadraient bien avec les vues du gouvernement après 1774, mais on ne possède pas de preuve qu'elles ont influencé Catherine II. On a lieu de croire que l'auteur du mémorandum était François Pierre Pictet, qui fut à un moment donné secrétaire de langue française de Catherine et était étroitement engagé dans les affaires coloniales à leurs débuts. Diderot a dû être séduit par les propositions qui semblaient combiner pour les colons les droits personnels et les droits de propriété à la croissance économique et à la constitution d'un tiers état.Bartlett Roger P. Diderot and the foreign colonies of Catherine II. In: Cahiers du monde russe et soviétique, vol. 23, n°2, Avril-Juin 1982. Autour du XVIII e siècle. pp. 221-241
