Archeologisch proefsleuvenonderzoek Heidseweg 9 te Heide in de gemeente Venray
No full textEconsultancy heeft in opdracht van de heer Van Dijck een proefsleuvenonderzoek uitgevoerd voor Heidseweg 9 te Heide in de gemeente Venray.
Bij het onderzoek zijn in het gehele plangebied sporen vastgesteld. De sporen vallen uiteen in twee groepen. Sporen die wijzen op de aanwezigheid van een nederzetting uit de prehistorie, het betreft hier kuilen, waaronder paalkuilen, en sporen die wijzen op landgebruik in de Late Middeleeuwen/Nieuwe tijd, het betreft hier voornamelijk greppels of sloten. Het prehistorische aardewerk is gedateerd, waarschijnlijk de Vroege IJzertijd. In het plangebied is een nederzetting uit de IJzertijd aangetroffen, waarschijnlijk uit de Vroege IJzertijd. Verder zijn er in het vlak sporen van recente agrarische activiteiten vastgesteld zoals sporen ontstaan door diepwoelers. Deze recente verstoringen waren niet dermate verstorend dat de archeologische waarde is aangetast.
Aangezien de nederzetting uit vermoedelijk de Vroege IJzertijd behoudenswaardig is, luidt het selectieadvies voor het plangebied: vervolgonderzoek in de vorm van een archeologische begeleiding of opgraving van de bouwput
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
Archeologische begeleiding fietspad Lage Heide te Dommelen, gemeente Valkenswaard
No full textTijdens de archeologische begeleiding van de aanleg van een fietspad in het plangebied Lage Heide te Dommelen zijn archeologische waarden aangetroffen. Het betreft een zevental vlasrootkuilen die zich op regelmatige afstand, parallel aan de weg "Het Broek" bevinden. De vlasrootkuilen zijn waarschijnlijk in de 20e eeuw machinaal uitgegraven en opgevuld met licht grijs zand. De kuilen zijn in situ behouden. Van een mogelijke voortzetting van de westelijk van het plangebied gelegen landweer of de oostelijk gelegen schans zijn geen resten aangetroffen
Exploring Emptiness: An Investigation of MA and MU in My Sonic Composition Practice
No full textThe commentary investigates Japanese aesthetics of space, silence and emptiness - ma and mu - that informed my compositional practice during the research period 2012 - 2015. The portfolio comprises text compositions and sound installations in which forms of micro events and sustained events are employed. Throughout, the emphasis is on my personal engagement with, and manifestation of emptiness that concerns a particular model of listening and perception.
Chapter 1 discusses six primary research areas: ma and mu, material, text, form, listening and perception. Firstly, I introduce ma and mu by examining noh culture and Zeami's teaching of senu hima (where there is no-action) in the context of my personal approaches to music. The following subjects are then used to contextualise my PhD practice by means of examples from various composers and visual artists. Here, these particular and enigmatic concepts are explored through Japanese art as well as Western contemporary works by Alvin Lucier, Eliane Radigue and those of the Wandelweiser collective.
Part 2 provides contextual commentaries on selected compositions from the portfolio that mostly articulate my aesthetics in relation to the topics covered in Chapter 1. koso koso addresses my methodologies to investigate the essence of senu hima, followed by treow that discusses my approach to materials and the importance of space. I move on to grade two and grade two extended in order to examine text scores, and then, look into Espèces d'espaces 03 and 04 as examples of musical forms that I employ.
Finally, listening and perception are investigated through the compositions gnome and con.de.structuring. Throughout, I describe how my works explore emptiness as a result of my particular emphasis on listening over composing
Opgravingsdocumentatie scheepswrak Amsterdam-Buitenlandvaarderskapel
No full textNaar aanleiding van een mededeling van de Restauratie Oude Kerk te Amsterdam van de Dienst Monumentenzorg te Amsterdam werd door G.D. van der Heide in 1964 een bezoek gebracht aan de kerk. Daarbij heeft men het scheepshout bekeken dat in de funderingen van de Buitenlandvaarderskapel verwerkt is. Bovendien zijn op de schotten van de koorafscheiding van de kerk zelf tal van scheepsafbeeldingen ingegrift. De naam Buitenlandvaarderskapel houdt verband met de scheepvaart van Amsterdam en de vele zeevaarders: buitenlandvaarders. Naderhand werden een overzichtsschets en twee tekeningen van het in de kapel opgegraven scheepshout (vermoedelijk in gebruik als altaarfundering) naar het Oudheidkundig Museum op Schokland verzonden. Ook is er sprake van een aanbod van Van der Heide om een balk te conserveren. Het scheepshout bleek afkomstig van een overnaads gebouwd schip dat mogelijk ouder is dan de zestiende eeuw, wordt vermeld in een stukje geschreven in de Westerheem van februari 1964. Het documentatie hier betreft slechts de correspondentie; de drie genoemde tekeningen zijn te vinden in de RCE-beeldbank door te zoeken op Buitenlandvaarderskapel of de objectnrs.

The construction of Karen Karnak: The multi-author-function
No full textThis thesis is situated within the comparatively recent developments of Web 2.0 and the emergence of interactive WikiMedia, and explores the mode of authorship within a Read/Write culture compared to that of a Read/Only tradition. The hypothesis of this study is that the role of the audience has become merged with the author, and as such, represents new functions and attributes, distinct from a more conventional concept of authorship, in which the roles of audience and author are more separate. Read/Write and participatory culture, as defined by this study, is focused on collaboration, and includes the influences of D.I.Y. culture, Open-Source practices and the production of text by multiple authors. Multi-authorship presents a re-thinking of several concepts which support the notion of the individual author, since the focus of multi-authorship is not on attribution and ownership of a finished text, but on the continued malleability of a text. Modes of multi-authorship, demonstrated in the use of the pseudonyms Alan Smithee and Karen Eliot, represent declarative authors whose names signify multiple origins, whilst concurrently indicating a distinct body of work. The function of these names form an important context to this study, since primary research involves the construction of an experimental mode of multi-authorship utilising WikiMedia technology and the interaction of thirty nine participants, who are invited to create a body of work under the collective pseudonym Karen Karnak. The data generated by this experiment is analysed using aspects of Michel Foucault's author-function to identify and determine power structures inherent in the WikiMedia context. The interplay of power structures, including concepts such as identity, ownership and the body of work, affect the resulting mode of authorship and contribute to the construction of Karen Karnak, suggesting further areas of research into the emerging multi-author

Localized physical vapor deposition via focused laser spike dewetting of gold thin films for nanoscale patterning
No full textFocused laser spike (FLaSk) excitation has been demonstrated as a reliable technique for the patterning of micro-to-nanoscale features locally by thermocapillary shear of thin films. Recent work on polymer thin films has revealed that overlapping laser scans can leverage coupled thermal and fluid effects to create subwavelength patterns. Compared to polymeric films, metallic thin films possess both a lower melt viscosity and higher surface tension. Here we investigate overlapping effects in the dewetting of ~15 nm gold thin films on borosilicate and quartz glass substrates with a 532 nm continuous wave laser. During this process, FLaSk initiates capillary and thermocapillary dewetting simultaneously. Further, the low oxidation potential and high vapor pressure of gold lead to non-equilibrium vaporization during heating. Since the parameters of overlapping scans control the amount of material that is heated and to what temperature it is heated, selection of laser power, scanning distance, writing speed, and numerical aperture results in particles with different sizes and spacing deposited on the writing substrates or a positioned superstrate through a laser-induced localized physical vapor deposition (LILPVD) process. If the laser parameters are selected within a specific working range, uniform or periodic particle distributions can be repeatably deposited in this fashion, which can then be used as seeds for nanomaterial growth. In addition, if the substrate melts during FLaSk, the viscous forces of the liquid-on-liquid dewetting broadens the range of patterning conditions by resisting the motion of the gold leading to more uniform particles over a large range of parameters.Peer reviewe

Geochemistry and U-Pb Geochronology of the 1450-1425 Ma Large Igneous Province of Eastern Laurentia and 2480-780 Ma Large Igneous Provinces of Western Laurentia
No full textMesoproterozoic magmatism that is exposed on the eastern and western margins of Laurentia (North America) are interpreted to be parts of large igneous provinces (LIP). The western margin between Kimberley (British Columbia) and Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming), and the eastern margin between Labrador City and coastal Labrador are herein referred to as western Laurentia (WL) and eastern Laurentia (EL), respectively. WL intraplate magmatism was previously divided into two LIPs the: 1) ca. 1460 Ma Moyie-Purcell LIP (MPL) which consists of the i) Purcell lavas in the USA, ii) Moyie sills of the Belt-Purcell basin iii) dykes of the Tobacco Root Mountains and 2) the ca. 780 Ma Gunbarrel LIP. The MPL is composed of tholeiitic basalts, and associated with the world class Sullivan Pb-Zn deposit. EL consists of basalts of the non-mineralized Michael-Shabogamo Gabbros (MSG).This research demonstrated that at least 17 geochemical groups are present in WL of which some belong to additional previously unrecognized events. Seven geochemical groups belong to the ca. 1460 Ma MPL; 1 with the ca. 780 Ma Gunbarrel LIP, 2 with a 1590-1550 Ma Mammoth-Western Channel LIP (MWCL); 2 with ages of 2480, and 1420 Ma; and 5 undated mafic pulses. The MWCL is similar to contemporaneous volcanic rocks within the South Australia craton, which was adjacent to NW Laurentia ca. 1590 Ma. This study proposes a shared 1590 Ma plume and LIP magmatism between Laurentia, and South Australia cratons.The MSG of EL are subalkaline basalts enriched in P2O5 and K2O and are shown to represent a single event with 2 pulses based on new U-Pb ages. Each pulse is defined by a distinct [P2O5*1000]/Zr (P/Zr) ratio: 1) a high P/Zr group at ca. 1425-1435 Ma; and 2) a low P/Zr group at ca. 1435-1450 Ma. Enrichment of P2O5 and K2O is due to melting of a metasomatized subcontinental lithospheric mantle with melting facilitated by a slab window
