A Study About Discourse Relationship Between the Design Concepts and Architectural Expressions of Residential Works by Steven Holl
Full text linkThe purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between the contextually expressed design concepts and the corresponding architectural expressions in residential design by Steven Holl. His work utilizes motif ideas and incorporates experimental thinking into the central concept. The purpose of this project is to clarify the process of conception of discursive expressions and related motif expressions in residential design. This study focuses on 17 residential architectural works from 1975 to 2012 and categorize the elements that influenced the concept and the motifs of the works. It identifies how architectural expressions that reflect motifs influence specific concepts or motifs by KJ method and Matrix analysis. It has been found that the concept is composed of 15 elements from five context types. Motifs were extracted as the subjects. To find out how motifs are expressed, a survey was conducted on architectural expressions corresponding to the motifs. The architectural expressions could be summarized into five categories. A matrix diagram was created to explore the relationship between the architectural expressions corresponding to the motifs and the concept. It became clear that the there is a unique concept that incorporates cultural and art into the composition with architectural expressions. This research focuses on the discursive expressions described, and it is advantageous to elucidate the design theories spoken by architects themselves. Combining KJ method and matrix analysis with the discursive expression of the concepts of architectural works and how they are expressed is a new method for clarifying architects\u27 design theories
Community of non-belonging, bodies for non-philosophy: interncultural performance and a sense of coexistence
No full textThis dissertation studies music and stage performances led by contemporary Japanese minority groups, primarily Ainu activists, from three theoretical perspectives: 1. Politics of representation, 2. The body and materiality, and 3. Philosophy of difference. Each perspective informs each chapter’s study of the soundscape and performance produced in lieu of verbal political negotiation. Posed as a project in performance studies and critical race theory, the dissertation analyzes cultural and political contexts of each performance as well as affect of the impact of performance. By addressing political situations and history minority populations in Japan, and especially since most of the chapters address the issues of contemporary Ainu indigenous struggles, this project necessarily takes postcolonial and feminist approaches that criticize Japanese imperialism, colonialism, and ideological products of other disciplinary forms of nation-building, such as the social hierarchies based on race and gender. The performances introduced in this dissertation themselves, however, take remarkably positive approaches to conceiving differences of the bodies. Rather than reverting to traditional identity politics, their performance activism seeks a new way for the various bodies and sensations to occupy shared spaces. Thus by examining their inclusive politics that is marked by avoidance of political discussions and focus on the sound elements and music sensations to activate a space of coexistence, this dissertation explores how music and bodily sensations allow us to conceive new modes of coexistence by different bodies of people. Another question this dissertation pursues is how to conceive materiality of the body while many gender and cultural studies have studied the body as signs and symbols of identity, and not a corporeal substance. By aligning with the recent theoretical movement that focuses on the material body, this dissertation engages in theorization of the body that leverages innovative conceptualizations of living with others. Finally, the dissertation proposes the concept of “Transnational Indigeneity,” an indigenous theorization that locates indigeneity outside and beyond national and racial borders and critiques such imperial exclusions and markings of bodies and the earth. The dissertation describes how transnational indigeneity is materialized in the new Ainu collaborative music scenes through the sound and sensations.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Yurika Tamur
Diálogo interétnico na escola : a implementaçãoda Lei 11.645/08 em Maringá/PR
Full text linkThe difficulty in the school context in relation to the appreciation of cultural diversity in their midst has been constantly discussed by theorists from different backgrounds. In a way, we can see in the formulation of laws and educational advice an attempt to make you study, learn and disseminate knowledge and practices of ethnic minorities who were oppressed and exploited during the colonization process, there is an appreciation of the Brazilian cultural heterogeneity . However, it is assumed that efficient and effective actions to overcome these difficulties have not yet been addressed. This is because the school system has spread a knowledge of cultural and social nature Eurocentric, and that does not dialogue with other cultural knowledge. We view this statement when we face the difficulties that individuals from indigenous communities have access, stay in school and completion of the national society as well as difficulties in access to goods produced by it. Assuming that studying Indian culture for the enhancement enables to improve the living conditions of these individuals and also the recovery of any distinction, whether ethnic, social or cultural, that because the knowledge and practices of indigenous communities were and are privileged object in formulation of theories that value the Other, this paper proposes a study on the implementation of Law No. 11.645/08. This makes it mandatory to introduce the theme "Indigenous" in the official curriculum of the Basic Education Network.A dificuldade encontrada no contexto escolar no que se refere à valorização da diversidade cultural em seu meio vem sendo constantemente discutida por teóricos das mais diversas formações. De certa maneira, podemos visualizar na formulação de leis e pareceres educacionais uma tentativa de fazer com que ao estudar, conhecer e disseminar as práticas e saberes das minorias étnicas que foram exploradas e oprimidas durante o processo de colonização, haja uma valorização da heterogeneidade cultural brasileira. No entanto, pressupõe-se que ações efetivas e eficazes para superação dessas dificuldades ainda não puderam ser contempladas. Isso porque o sistema escolar ainda dissemina um saber cultural e social de cunho eurocêntrico, que não dialoga com outros saberes culturais. Podemos visualizar essa afirmativa quando nos deparamos com as dificuldades que os indivíduos provenientes de comunidades indígenas têm de acesso, permanência e conclusão nas escolas da sociedade nacional, bem como dificuldades de acesso aos bens materiais produzidos pela mesma. Pressupondo que estudar a cultura indígena para sua valorização possibilita melhorar as condições de vida destes indivíduos e também a valorização de toda e qualquer diferença, seja esta étnica, social ou cultural, isso porque os saberes e fazeres das comunidades indígenas foram e são objeto privilegiado na formulação de teorias que valorizem o Outro, este trabalho propõe um estudo sobre a implementação da Lei n° 11.645/08. Com esta, torna-se obrigatória a inserção da temática "Indígena" no currículo oficial da Rede Básica de Ensino.124
Stress measurement in the iron oxide scale formed on pure Fe during isothermal transformation by in situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction
Full text linkThe stress development in the iron oxide scale formed on pure Fe during isothermal oxidation at 700 degrees C followed by isothermal transformation at 500 or 380 degrees C was measured by in situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction with the sin(2)psi method. The eutectoid transformation resulted in compressive stress generation in the Fe3O4 and Fe in the eutectoid structure. This compressive stress was relaxed during the isothermal heat treatment after the eutectoid reaction. The stress generation was ascribed primarily to volume changes associated with the oxidation and/or reduction of the iron oxide at the interfaces, Fe3O4 precipitation, and the eutectoid reaction
Pennelliisides A-C, 2,3,4-Trisubstituted Acyl Glucoses Isolated from Solanum pennellii
Full text linkSolarium species accumulate a variety of secondary metabolites in their trichomes, and it is well known that acyl sugars are specialized metabolites secreted by the trichomes. However, very few reports provide detailed information on the chemical structure of polyacylated glucose derivatives, due to the alpha and beta isomerization that can occur at the C-1 position. In this study, a strategy was established to isolate polyacylated glucose derivatives. According to the developed strategy, hydroxy groups were derivatized to a benzyloxy group using TriBOT. After isolation of the compounds in pure form and deprotection of the benzyloxy group, the chemical structures of pennelliisides A-C were determined as 2,3,4-O-triisobutyryl-D-glucose, 3-O-(8-methylnonanoyl)-2,4-O-diisobutyryl-D-glucose, and 3-O-decanoyl-2,4-O-diisobutyryl-D-glucose, respectively. Structural elucidation was performed using spectroscopic techniques, including 1D and 2D NMR, FD-MS, and GC-MS. It was also found that the fatty acid moiety contributes to the allelopathic properties of the isolated compounds
