Tim Burton sinemasında Memento Mori
No full textLisansüstü Programlar Enstitüsü, Sinema Televizyon Ana Bilim DalıBu tezde, Tim Burton'ın ölüm teması çevresinde gelişen üç filminde —The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), Corpse Bride (2005), Frankenweenie (2012) — tekrarlayan gotik elementler, dekor, kostüm tasarımı ve olay örgüsü bakımından felsefedeki memento mori kavramı bağlamında incelenmiştir. Bu nedenle tez, memento mori kavramının felsefedeki karşılığının ne olduğunu inceleyerek başlar ve Tim Burton'ın seçilmiş üç filminin görsel analizleriyle devam eder. Memento mori'nin Latince karşılığı kısaca "öleceğini hatırla" anlamına gelmektedir ve Tim Burton'ın incelediğim filmlerinde memento mori kavramının görsel imgelerini bulmak mümkündür. Son bölümde Tim Burton'ın yönetmen incelemesi mevcuttur. Görsel analizi yapılan filmlerde sıklıkla kullanılmış ve tekrar eden görsel elementler; temel olarak kafatası ve iskelet, çiçek ve hayvan, saat ve mum olmakla birlikte mezarlık ve koyu renkteki kıyafet seçimi de memento mori'yi güçlendiren elementlerdendir. Tim Burton, çoğu filminde; hikâye, sinematografi, sanat yönetimi, kostüm tasarımı gibi birçok açıdan seyirciye ölümü hatırlatmaktadır. Bu tezde de Tim Burton'ın memento mori kavramını nasıl ele aldığı, hangi imgeleri sıklıkla kullandığı, memento mori'nin felsefedeki tarihsel yolculuğundan başlayarak, filmlerin görsel analizleriyle derinlemesine incelenmiştir.In this thesis, the recurring gothic elements in three of Tim Burton's films centred around the theme of death—The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), Corpse Bride (2005), and Frankenweenie (2012)—are examined in the context of the philosophical concept of memento mori, considering aspects of set design, costume design, and plot. Therefore, the thesis begins by examining the philosophical significance of the memento mori concept and continues with visual analyses of the three selected films by Tim Burton. The Latin phrase "memento mori" translates to "remember that you will die," and it is possible to find visual representations of the memento mori concept in the films of Tim Burton that I have studied. The final section includes an examination of Tim Burton as a director. The frequently used and recurring visual elements in the visually analysed films include primarily skulls, skeletons, flowers, animals, clocks, and candles, as well as graveyards and dark-coloured clothing, which are elements that reinforce the memento mori theme. In most of his films, Tim Burton reminds the audience of death through various aspects such as story, cinematography, art direction, and costume design. This thesis deeply analyses how Tim Burton addresses the concept of memento mori, which images he frequently uses, starting from the historical journey of memento mori in philosophy and continuing with the visual analyses of the films

No full textTim Di Muzio on 'Sabotage'
No full textIn a series of essays published in 2013 and 2014 on capitaspower.com, political economist Tim Di Muzio explored the concept of ‘sabotage’ as it applies to capitalist power. I recently rediscovered these essays and was so impressed by them that I have reposted them here as a single piece.

Flexible Spline Models for Blinded Sample Size Reestimation in Event‐Driven Clinical Trials
No full textABSTRACT In event‐driven trials, the target power under a certain treatment effect is maintained as long as the required number of events is obtained. The misspecification of the survival function in the planning phase does not result in a loss of power. However, the trial might take longer than planned if the event rate is lower than assumed. Blinded sample size reestimation (BSSR) uses non‐comparative interim data to adjust the sample size if some planning assumptions are wrong. In the setting of an event‐driven trial, the sample size may be adjusted to maintain the chances to obtain the required number of events within the planned time frame. For the purpose of BSSR, the survival function is estimated based on the interim data and often needs to be extrapolated. The current practice is to fit standard parametric models, which may however not always be suitable. Here we propose a flexible spline‐based BSSR method. Specifically, we propose to carry out the extrapolation based on the Royston–Parmar spline model. To compare the proposed procedure with parametric approaches, we carried out a simulation study. Although parametric approaches might seriously over‐ or underestimate the expected number of events, the proposed flexible approach avoided such undesirable behavior. This is also observed in an application to a secondary progressive multiple sclerosis trial. Overall, if planning assumptions are wrong this more robust flexible BSSR method could help event‐driven designs to more accurately adjust recruitment numbers and to finish on time
