    Out of Now : The Lifeworks of Tehching Hsieh

    No full text
    "Between September 1978 and July 1986, Hsieh realized five separate one-year-long performance pieces in which he conformed to simple but highly restrictive rules throughout each entire year. Through the course of these lifeworks, Hsieh moved from a year of solitary confinement in a sealed cell to a year in which he punched a worker’s time clock in his studio every hour on the hour to a year spent living without shelter in Manhattan to a year in which he was tied by an eight-foot rope to the artist Linda Montano and finally to a year of total abstention from all art activities and influences. In 1986 Hsieh announced that he would spend the next thirteen years making art but not showing it publicly. When this “final” lifework—an immense act of self-affirmation and self-erasure—came to a close at the turn of the millennium, he tersely and enigmatically said that during this time he had simply kept himself alive. After years of near-invisibility, Hsieh collaborated with the British writer and curator Adrian Heathfield to create this meticulous and visually arresting documentary record of the complete body of Tehching Hsieh’s performance projects from 1978 to 1999." -- Publisher's website

    Awareness, Type of Medium, and L2 Development: Revisiting Hsieh (2008)

    No full text
    The small number of published studies that has empirically compared face-to-face (FTF) instruction against computer-assisted instruction (CAI) appears to support superior learning benefits for CAI (cf. AbuSeileek, 2009; AbuSeileek & Rababah, 2007; Nutta, 1998; Torlaković & Deugo 2004; cf. Hsieh, 2008 for no effects). However, a recent critical review of these studies’ internal validity (Cerezo, Baralt, Suh, & Leow, 2013) reveals that the relative effects of this computerized medium against FTF instruction are still unclear and calls for a closer investigation of the cognitive processes employed while interacting with L2 data across type of medium. Interestingly, Hsieh (2008) collected but did not report concurrent data produced by her participants during L2 data exposure to a computerized version of the FTF instruction (C-FTF) and CAI conditions in her published study. This chapter seeks to address this important call by revisiting Hsieh (2008) to qualitatively compare, from a psycholinguistic perspective, the cognitive processes, and more specifically, level of awareness, employed in each type of medium (C-FTF vs. CAI) regarding the L2 development of a morpho-syntactic structure such as gustar ‘to please’ at the beginning level of Spanish. The findings indicate that the features of each instructional medium clearly prompted different levels of awareness and depth of processing. These findings also provide plausible explanations for the non-significant differences in performances between the two groups and for the superior gain scores on a delayed posttest for the CAI group reported in the original study and other studies. A pedagogical implication is provided

    A STUDY OF HSIEH T'IAO, S POETRY

    No full text
    Hsieh T'iao 謝朓 (464-499) is a well-known poet of the Ch'i dynasty 南齊朝. This study analyzes some of the expressional elements of his poetry in an attempt to understand the characteristics peculiar to his work. First considered is the quality of 'wind' in his poems. By no means does it overwhelm by its strength, rather Hsieh's wind possesses a delicacy, an aesthetic lightness. It brings about subtle and quite beautiful transformations in the common objects against which it brushes : trees, flowers, leaves, water. A purified atmosphere pervades the poetry, owing to the presence of this light, gentle breeze. Next, the qualities of 'light' are considered. Hsieh's light is marked by two qualities, first by its cold luminosity. 'Moonlight' most clearly conveys this quality. Secondly, the poems' light is characterized by its evanescence, its diffused quality. 'The fragile sunlight of early morning' and 'twilight's pale glow' best typify this second quality. The effect of 'light' gives rise to a tranquil poetic atmosphere, conducive to an unhurried, crystallized expression of the poets emotions. Other expressional elements are next examined. Generally this concerns a process of selection, wherein Hsieh T'iao leans toward weaker, softer elements. Thus we may see an aging beauty starting to fade, or a plant just now pushing forth, or tiny insects. The apprehension of such delicate forms unexpectedly becomes the focus of a poem. In turn, the confessional aspect of his poetry is considered, with a broad outline of the poet's life provided. Lastly, the reason for Hsieh T'iao's greater success in short pieces as against his longer poems is examined. In the short poems, his poetical feelings effect a unity, fusing with the beautiful natural settings he depicts. It is in the short poems that his excellent lyric poetry achieves its ultimate expression

    Direct observation of spin-polarized surface states in the parent compound of a topological insulator using spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy in a Mott-polarimetry mode

    We report high-resolution spin-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (spin-ARPES) measurements on the parent compound Sb of the recently discovered three-dimensional topological insulator Bi1−xSbx (Hsieh et al 2008 Nature 452 970, Hsieh et al 2009 Science 323 919). By modulating the incident photon energy, we are able to map both the bulk and the (111) surface band structure, from which we directly demonstrate that the surface bands are spin polarized by the spin–orbit interaction and connect the bulk valence and conduction bands in a topologically non-trivial way. A unique asymmetric Dirac surface state gives rise to a k-splitting of its spin-polarized electronic channels. These results complement our previously published works on this class of materials and re-confirm our discovery of topological insulator states in the Bi₁₋ₓSbₓ series

    The paper [M.-L. Hsieh and S. Yamana, Restriction of Eisenstein series and Stark-Heegner points, arXiv:2002.11858.] was finished later after the conference. The text of this note has some overlapping with the content in [M.-L. Hsieh and S. Yamana, Restriction of Eisenstein series and Stark-Heegner points, arXiv:2002.11858.].This short note is written based on my talk on a joint work with Shunsuke Yamana [HY20] in the RIMS conference "Analytic, geometric and p-adic aspects of automorphic forms and L-functions" during January 20-24, 2020. The author thanks the organizers for their hospitality during the conference

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    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
