The shaping and operation of Taipei "trend circle"
隨著經濟發展變遷,新的消費型態將重新體驗。過往的農業經濟、工業經濟、服務經濟的重心也轉變至今日的體驗經濟、文化經濟。各行各業漸漸體悟到除了產品和服務本身的品質,還必須加上「創意」與「美」的元素來經營,並且朝著體驗化與精緻化之路轉型。潮流文化產業在此時似乎走出自己一片天,在金融海嘯衝擊精品銷售時,卻逆勢竄起,在美、日、歐等全球主要奢侈品消費市場至少下滑一O%以上,潮牌卻不斷展店,並且活動不絕。潮流風格(trendy style)產業既為全球性流行風潮與消費風格化下順應而生,並塑造其特有生活態度明確訴求為主要經營理念,滿足消費者多元選擇與表達自我的需求。
本研究的目的,在於藉由Bourdieu的理論工具,來看待潮流圈的文化生產場域是如何開展,以及潮流圈的文化設計者的慣習與實踐、潮流產業運作的象徵鬥爭,以及產業創新的作為等問題。研究方法對於潮流設計者的社交生活進行田野訪查,透過實際觀察與深度訪談,以Pierre Bourdieu的概念工具,就台北市個案潮流設計者之慣習、場域實踐、象徵鬥爭加以分析。
研究發現,潮流源於美日外來街頭文化,西門町為台北市原創街頭潮流的起源,潮流圈場域的開展始於對於街頭文化喜愛的消費者,爾後亦表現自我,成為潮流圈的主理人,潮流圈是以主理人為中心的品牌操作模式,藉由主理人慣習與實踐影響品牌操作;開始是由原創街頭潮牌制定潮流圈的遊戲規則,主要是對於街頭文化精神的信仰以及建構於以朋友為根基的社交生活基礎。在潮流圈內分類與追求文化正當性時,在風格與運作面向產生象徵鬥爭;另新加入潮流圈的參與者,則也會透過創新的作為試圖改變既有遊戲規則,主要是與在地文化的應用進行老牌翻新以及透過藝術提昇價值。創新的作為亦產生象徵鬥爭,卻也造就潮流圈豐富多元的面貌。With the changes of economic development, new consumption patterns will re-experience. The past of the agricultural economy, industrial economy, and service economy are also changing the focus to today''s experience economy, culture economy. Apart from all walks of life have gradually realized that expect of the quality of products and services themselves, must be added the "creative" and "beauty" of the elements to run, and toward the road to transformation to experience and refinement. Trendy culture industry at this time seems to come out of their one day in the financial tsunami, the boutique sale, to buck the trend re-leased in the United States, Japan, Europe and other major global luxury market over at least drop a 1O%, Trendy brand has continued to add their stores, and activities are not absolute. Trendy style industry comes into being with both global pop culture and consumption styles, and shaping their unique attitude to life clear demand as the main business philosophy, with multiple choices to meet consumer demand for self-expression.
The purpose of this study is that by Bourdieu''s theory as a tool to look at the issues of how the trend of the circle of the field of cultural production field carry out, and the what the designers of trend circle’s habitus and how to practice, and the symbol of struggle against the trend of industrial operations, as well as industry Innovative approach. Research methods are visiting the current field of designer’s social life, and through actual observation and depth interviews, with Pierre Bourdieu''s conceptual tools, to analyze the trendy designers’ habitus, field and practice, symbolic struggles on the cases of Taipei.
The study found that the trend are from street culture of the U.S. and Japan. Ximending(西門町) is the origin of the original street fashion in Taipei. The field of trend circle began with consumers who favorite street culture, and later also to express themselves, to become the brand director of trend circle the trend circle. The trend circle’s operating mode is with the center of the brand director(主理人). The brand operations affect are from the habitus and practice of brand directors; the trend circle’s rules started from the original street style trendy brand, mainly for street culture and spiritual beliefs, and with the built on the foundation of a friend as a basis for social life.
Trend circle in the current classification and the pursuit of cultural legitimacy, the symbolic struggles come with the style and operation; another trend circle of participants who joined with new, are also trying to change through innovation both as rules of the game, mainly with the application with ground culture to renovation of old, and through the arts to enhance the value. Innovation action also brings with symbolic struggles, but also created a rich and diverse face of trend circle
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
