Educating the gaze: images of collective memory
No full textFil: Inzaurralde, Gabriel. Universidad de Leiden; Países Bajos.Fil: Saab, Ana Paula. Universidad Nacional de Luján. Departamento de Educación; Argentina.Entre otras muchas cosas, la educación pública se ha ocupado siempre de regular las formas que adquiere el trato entre las generaciones. Ha sido la instancia donde se articula el legado de los mayores con las expectativas de los más jóvenes, el
espacio de experiencia como diría Koselleck con el horizonte de expectativa. En la era de la digitalización y el algoritmo, las imágenes efectistas de la industria cultural, la infoesfera, así como la propaganda saturan el espacio comunicativo.
Lejos de contribuir a una democratización radical de los contenidos, lo que aprecian distintos autores, es una progresiva automatización de los comportamientos.
En este contexto es importante que la educación recupere los márgenes de indeterminación que le permitían escapar a la lógica de la rentabilidad capitalista. El trabajo con creaciones artísticas que involucran la memoria permite a nuestro entender desarrollar formas de sensibilidad alternativas. Ofrecemos una lectura de cuatro imágenes artísticas que, desde nuestra perspectiva crítica, podrían ser útiles como lugares de detención reflexiva. Se trata de explorar los modos en que estas obras o artefactos estéticos son singulares productores de sentido que dan forma a la memoria social, desplazando sus énfasis y provocando incorporaciones desde el inevitable presente en el que se generan (Pittaluga, Giordano y Escobar, 2016). El repertorio seleccionado para esta presentación incluye las obras de Bettini, “Recuerdos Inventados” (2002-2003), Guagnini, “30.000” (1999), RES, “Tosca memoria” (2012); y de Díaz Morales, “Pasajes” (2013).Among many other things, public education has always been concerned with regulating the forms of interaction between generations. It has been the instance where the legacy of the elders is articulated with the expectations of the youngest, the space of experience, as Koselleck would say, with the horizon of expectation. But formal education has always been under the pressure of business logic that
privileges training over intellectual emancipation. In the era of digitalization and algorithms, the effective images of the cultural industry, the infosphere, as well as propaganda, saturate the communicative space. Far from contributing
to a radical democratization of content, what various authors appreciate is a progressive automation of behaviours. In this context, it is important that education recovers the margins of indeterminacy that allowed it to escape the logic of capitalist profitability. In our opinion, working with artistic creations that involve memory allows the development of alternative forms of sensitivity. We offer a reading of four artistic images that, from our critical perspective, could be useful as places for reflective pause. The aim is to explore the ways in which these works or aesthetic artefacts are singular producers of meaning that
give shape to social memory, shifting its emphasis and causing incorporations from the inevitable present in which they are generated (Pittaluga, Giordano y Escobar, 2016). The repertoire selected for this presentation includes the works of Bettini, “Recuerdos Inventados” (2002-2003); Guagnini, “30.000” (1999), RES, “Tosca memoria” (2012) and by Díaz Morales, “Pasajes” (2013)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
No full textWe 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
No full textIn 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.
