    Collective Improvisation: The Practice and Vision of Ingemar Lindh

    No full text
    Ingemar Lindh's research on the principles of collective improvisation and performance conceived as process announce an important development in the 20th-century tradition of the actor's work. After early studies with Étienne Decroux and working collaborations with Jerzy Grotowski, Eugenio Barba, and Yves Lebreton, Lindh founded the first laboratory theatre in Sweden in 1971, the Institutet för Scenkonst. His practice of collective improvisation is viewed in light of postdramatic concerns such as its resistance to fixed scores, directorial montage, and choreography as an organizing principle

    Of Crossroads and Undercurrents: Ingemar Lindh's Practice of Collective Improvisation and Jerzy Grotowski

    No full text
    In this article Frank Camilleri discusses the historical and professional links between Ingemar Lindh and Jerzy Grotowski, with a specific focus on the nature and implications of their separate work on physical action. Lindh's practice, particularly his research on the ‘disinterested act’, is read in the context of Grotowski's ‘doing’ in Art as Vehicle. The individual work of the two practitioners on vocal and vibration techniques is seen as integral to their research on physical action. Frank Camilleri is Senior Lecturer in Drama and Theatre Studies at the University of Kent and Artistic Director of Icarus Performance Project (Malta). He served as Academic Coordinator of Theatre Studies at the University of Malta from 2004 to 2008, and in 2007 co-founded Icarus Publishing Enterprise with Odin Teatret and the Grotowski Institute

    Hospitality and the Ethics of Improvisation in the Work of Ingemar Lindh

    No full text
    Ingemar Lindh's work on the principles of collective improvisation has crucial implications for the history of twentieth-century laboratory theatre. His early work with Étienne Decroux and Jerzy Grotowski contributed to the development of a unique practice that resists directorial montage, fixed scores, and choreography; and the ethical dimension that accompanies Lindh's research on collective improvisation is illuminating for a more holistic understanding of the technical and aesthetic considerations in theatre. In this article, Frank Camilleri discusses some of the key aspects of this dimension, notably the dynamics of hospitality and encounter that inform Lindh's approach and the question of responsibility in the actor's work. Frank Camilleri is Lecturer in Drama and Theatre Studies at the University of Kent. From 2004 to 2008 he was Academic Coordinator of Theatre Studies at the University of Malta. He is also Artistic Director of Icarus Performance Project – an ongoing research laboratory that investigates the intermediary space between training and performance processes. Camilleri's work with Lindh in the mid-1990s was instrumental for the development of this research practice

    Ingemar Oscarsson, From the indépendant supplement to an under rule. Some notes on the feuilleton in the french press during the 1790 's and the beginning of the 19th century. During the 1790's the word feuilleton (serial story) started to loose its technical significance (little journal or single sheet). It refers to a supplement of a newspaper. In 1800 (Journal des Débats) the supplement is incorporated in the newspaper itself at the bottom of the page. The author studies the contains of many feuilletons in the revolutionary and consulate press. The qualitative and quantitative importance of politics during the revolution and the technical restraint of the printing of newspapers forced them to push back all the other informations in a space, separated from the political section. From 1800 the contents of the feuilleton become largely cultural.Ingemar Oscarsson, Du supplément indépendant à un rez-de-chaussée sous le filet. Quelques notes sur le feuilleton dans la presse française au cours des années 1790 et les premières années du XIXe siècle. Pendant les années 1790 le mot feuilleton commence à ne plus avoir une signification technique (petit cahier ou petite feuille). Il désigne un supplément à un journal. En 1800 (Journal des débats) le supplément est incorporé dans le journal même, en bas de page. L'auteur étudie le contenu de plusieurs de ces feuilletons dans la presse de la Révolution et du Consulat. L'importance qualitative et quantitative de la politique pendant la Révolution, ainsi que les contraintes techniques de la fabrication des journaux, obligèrent ceux-ci à repousser toutes les autres informations dans un ensemble distinct de la partie politique. A partir de 1800, le contenu du feuilleton devient majoritairement culturel.Oscarsson Ingemar. « De supplément indépendant à un rez-de-chaussée sous le filet ».

    To make an inventory of quality and content of currently available and published sets of health care quality indicators (HCQIs) for RA and OA.Objective. To make an inventory of quality and content of currently available and published sets of health care quality indicators (HCQIs) for RA and OA.Methods. A systematic review was performed for documents on the development and/or a description of HCQIs for the management of patients with RA and/or OA, using the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane and CINAHL databases up to 1 December 2010 and official websites of arthritis organizations. The following data were extracted: general characteristics, contents and quality of developmental process (six aspects related to the definition of target, target group and stakeholders, patient involvement, description of development and test of validity).Results. The search yielded 498 potentially eligible references and two websites, with ultimately six original HCQI sets for RA and/or OA being identified (one for RA and OA, two for OA and three for RA). The number of HCQI ranged from 7 to 27, with the majority being process indicators. No conflicting indicators between the HCQI sets for one condition were seen. Concerning the quality of the developmental process, all six sets lacked patient involvement.Conclusion. Only a limited number of HCQI sets for the management of OA and RA are available, mainly including process indicators. The developmental process was methodologically suboptimal in all cases. As improvement of health care quality is an ongoing process, there is a need for development of HCQIs covering different aspects of health care quality (structure, process and outcome) and using appropriate methodology. © The Author 2012.

    Shock induced endotheliopathy (SHINE) in acute critical illness - a unifying pathophysiologic mechanism

    The Erratum to this article has been published in Critical Care 2017 21:187 Unfortunately this article [1] was published with an error. The first and last author names are presented incorrectly. The first author name should be Pär Ingemar Johansson, or alternatively Johansson PI. The last author name should be Sisse Rye Ostrowski, or alternatively Ostrowski SR.One quarter of patients suffering from acute critical illness such as severe trauma, sepsis, myocardial infarction (MI) or post cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) develop severe hemostatic aberrations and coagulopathy, which are associated with excess mortality. Despite the different types of injurious “hit”, acutely critically ill patients share several phenotypic features that may be driven by the shock. This response, mounted by the body to various life-threatening conditions, is relatively homogenous and most likely evolutionarily adapted. We propose that shock-induced sympatho-adrenal hyperactivation is a critical driver of endothelial cell and glycocalyx damage (endotheliopathy) in acute critical illness, with the overall aim of ensuring organ perfusion through an injured microvasculature. We have investigated more than 3000 patients suffering from different types of acute critical illness (severe trauma, sepsis, MI and PCAS) and have found a potential unifying pathologic link between sympatho-adrenal hyperactivation, endotheliopathy, and poor outcome. We entitled this proposed disease entity, shock-induced endotheliopathy (SHINE). Here we review the literature and discuss the pathophysiology of SHINE.Peer Reviewe

    The article want to raise the awareness of some urgent questions that is concerned with the development of new theory and methods in the service of addressing the problematic situation of the Anthropocene. With the aid of the 20th century Swedish author Lars Gyllensten’s general ideas of the function of critique (iconoclasm) and creativity (iconoplasm), the aim is to point to two basic patterns when moving towards new, and hopefully better paradigms
