B NUNES PAHEKOHEKO PRESENTATION 092025
No full textThis paper describes the emergence of a framework of collaboration to support creative practice in the service of ecological alliances. This framework has been developed in a post-colonial, intersectional and embodied context, (Chandra, 2003) and as an entanglement (Harraway, 2016) between two visual arts practitioners working in very different but connected contexts. The potential exists to disrupt the colonial and imperial “distribution of the sensible” (Ranćiere, 2004) through looking, sensing and recording in different temporalities. These ideas are explored here through the undertaking of a creative long-distance collaboration between U.K based artist Becky Nunes and indigenous artist Maraea Timutimu (Tūhoe, Ngāi Te Rangi, Ngāti Ranginui). This collaboration aims to explore the possibilities of reparative art-actions between both artists and the landscapes they inhabit. Timutimu is an Indigenous artist working with whenua (earth) pigments, to connect past, present and future descendants of her tribal lands with their stories. Nunes is also engaged with projects that aim to amplify the narratives of other-than-human materials that are our planetary kin; with a particular focus on the ground beneath our feet. In an ongoing series of video kōrero (conversations), knowledge exchange and parallel art practices, Timutimu and Nunes introduce these sites to each other, sharing methodologies of fieldwork to contribute to a greater understanding of our connectedness to land, and assist in reparations for colonized and exhausted landscapes in Aotearoa and England. These methods include sensory ethnography, chromatography, and experiments with language and Artificial Intelligence. The collaborative aspect of this work is important, foregrounding an ethical position in relation to “the entangled materializations of which we are a part.”(Barad, 2007, p384

Os instrumentos náuticos na obra de Pedro Nunes
No full textTese de mestrado, História Marítima, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Letras, 2013Pedro Nunes foi o maior matemático da Península Ibérica no século xvi. Exerceu as funções
de cosmógrafo e apresentou uma visão científica da arte de navegar. Foi precursor no estudo
da náutica, dando-lhe um cunho de ciência. Aplicou a lógica matemática e a geometria para
explicar as metodologias e elementos fundamentais na navegação. Nos seus diversos trabalhos
dedicou-se ao estudo dos crepúsculos, da carta náutica e dos métodos de determinação da latitude,
entre outros.
Os contributos de Pedro Nunes para a história da ciência, evolução da astronomia e da
navegação enquanto ciência foram indiscutíveis e salientados pelos seus pares. Contudo, relativamente
ao seu papel na evolução da marinharia do seu tempo, já não conseguimos verificar
uma opinião tão unânime. Todavia, esta questão ainda não foi devidamente fundamentada por
algum estudo que se preste a esse objectivo específico.
Neste trabalho estudámos os instrumentos de navegação propostos por Pedro Nunes nas
suas obras. Ao longo dos seus estudos detectou lacunas na instrumentação à disposição dos
pilotos da sua época, que prontamente procurou resolver com novas soluções para aumentar o
rigor das observações.
Estudámos os seguintes instrumentos: lâmina de sombras, instrumento jacente, anel náutico
e nónio. Procurámos entender de que forma estes instrumentos podiam ser empregues, quais
as utilizações que deles se fizeram na marinharia de quinhentos e de que forma foram referidos
pelos autores posteriores, que publicaram obras na área da náutica e astronomia.ABSTRACT: Pedro Nunes was the greatest mathematician of the Iberian Peninsula in the sixteenth century.
He exercised the functions of cosmographer and presented a reformist vision of the art
of navigation. He was a precursor in solve nautical problems using complex maths tools. He
applied mathematical logic and geometry to explain the methodologies and other important
subjects in the navigation. He devoted himself to the study of twilight, the nautical chart and
the methods for determination of latitude, among others.
The contributions from Pedro Nunes to the history of science and the evolution of astronomy
and scientific navigation are indisputable. We found many references to their works among the
sixteenth century scientific community. However, the role of Nunes in the evolution of the art
of navigation is not clear. We did not find an unanimous opinion about this matter. This issue
was not deeply studied yet, and until someone dedicates a study to understand the relation
between Nunes and the seamanship we can’t elaborate any rigorous oppinion.
We study the navigation instruments proposed by Pedro Nunes in his works. Throughout
his studies, the cosmographer had found accuracy limitations in the nautical instruments available
for the mariners, and promptly propose newones, which increase the accuracy of the
observations and offered alternatives to the latitude calculation process.
In this work we have examined the following instruments: instrument of shadows, a new
instrument to find the altitude of sun, nautical ring and nonius. We try to understand how
those instruments could be used, we looked to sources trying to find records about Nunes’s
nautical instruments among seamanship community, and also, we try to understand how the
intruments were cited by later books about astronomy and nautical studies

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

Ponto cantado, encantando o ponto: Clara Nunes a interpretação dos cânticos de umbanda e candomblé na vida musical brasileira
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2014.Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar os limites entre a música cantada nos espaços afro-religiosos e fora deles. Desde a vinda dos povos africanos para o Brasil, a música e a religião foram elementos importantes nas práticas sociais. Focando estes componentes, foi escolhida a cantora brasileira Clara Nunes, que interpretava canções do universo religioso afro-brasileiro e sambas que faziam menção a esse universo, para entender as relações entre os diversos gêneros musicais do Brasil e a presença deles nos palcos e nos espaços religiosos. A pesquisa foi exploratória e descreve breve histórico sobre a vinda dos africanos para o Brasil, enfocando a religião e a música. Mereceu destaque uma exposição histórica do samba e dos gêneros que o influenciaram e que fizeram e fazem parte tanto do universo lúdico quanto do religioso afro-brasileiro, com seu desenvolvimento desde o período colonial. Em continuidade, foi necessária a referência à música executada dentro das casas que cultuam as religiões afro-brasileiras, os terreiros: cânticos chamados de pontos. Esses pontos são executados, principalmente, nos espaços ritualísticos. Clara Nunes, sua trajetória musical e a escolha pelo repertório alusivo à religiosidade afro-brasileira estão em destaque, finalizando este trabalho. A cantora demonstrava grande apreço e devoção aos cultos afro-brasileiros e passou a divulgá-los através de suas interpretações musicais. A pesquisa conclui que a canção brasileira que traz em seu conteúdo elementos religiosos afro-brasileiros e o ponto cantado fundem-se, ao mesmo tempo em que suas particularidades são individualizadas conforme seu lugar.Abstract:This work has as objective to investigate the limits between songs as performed in afro-religious spaces and outside them. Since the arrival of Africans in Brazil, music and religion were important elements of social practices. Focusing on these components the Brazilian singer Clara Nunes, who interpreted songs from the religious afro-brazilian universe and sambas mentioning it, was chosen in an attempt to understand the relationship between the diverse Brazilian musical scenario and their presence, both on stage and inside the religious spaces. The research was of an exploratory nature and presents a brief history of the coming of Africans to Brazil with focus on religion and music. A historical overview of samba and other musical genera influenced by it, which were, and still are, part of the ludical and afro-brazilian religious universe, developing since the colonial period, is highlighted. Following that, reference to the music performed within the spaces cultivating afro-brazilian religions - terreiros - songs called pontos, was considered necessary. These pontos are mainly performed within ritualistic spaces. Clara Nunes, her musical career and the choosing of her repertoire related to the afro-brazilian religion are highlighted at the end of this work. The singer used to demonstrate great liking and devotion to afro-brazilian cults and spread them through her musical interpretations. It is concluded that brazilian songs containing elements of afro-brazilian religions and the pontos are fused, and at the same time their particularities are individualized according to the place of execution
