Other Actors
No full textOther Actors is a new, three-channel film piece by Stanley Picker Fellow Ilona Sagar, exploring the links between bodies and buildings, health and architecture through the lens of the Paimio Sanatorium in Finland. Designed by Alvar and Aino Aalto and completed between 1929 and 1933, the sanatorium represents a radical shift in the design for health. Conceived as an "instrument for healing" the Aaltos' proposed an architecture designed not for the verticality of the healthy body but for the horizontal perspective of the sick. At the time of filming, the sanatorium is at a significant moment in its transition from hospital to a new purpose. As restoration progresses, the film examines its status as a building in flux. Featuring prominent theorists Beatriz Colomina, Heini Hakosalo, and Peter Stadius, Other Actors asks us to consider what we do with the architectural legacies of modernism that linger in our cultural imaginary, and how we can platform those who would normally be hidden behind its visual facades.
Sagar worked in close collaboration with those who have lived and worked in Paimio Sanatorium, including the former maintenance staff, workers at the furniture manufacturer Artek, and surviving architects of the Aaltos' design team, whose accounts embody real knowledge of the building, speaking intimately to the archive and its importance. Other Actors is informed by collaboration with Aalto University School of Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering as well as the Tuberculosis Research Group at Leicester University and Imperial College London, highlighting an urgent contemporary perspective on a disease often thought to be a relic of the past

Sagar pişirim tekniği
Full text linkTez (yüksek lisans) - Anadolu ÜniversitesiAnadolu Üniversitesi, Güzel Sanatlar Enstitüsü, Seramik Anasanat DalıKayıt no: 164558İnsanoğlunun varoluşundan bugüne kadar seramik birçok alanda önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Toprak ve sudan oluşan karışım ancak pişirildiğinde seramik olabilmektedir. Fırınların icadına kadar insanoğlu çamurdan şekillendirdiği formları; direkt yanıcı maddelerle birlikte pişirmiştir. Fakat bu pişirim yöntemi seramiklere zarar vermiştir. Çin' de Sui ve Tang döneminde hükümdar sülaleleri için üretilen bisküvi pişirimi yapılmış porselen ürünlerin, fırında pişirimleri için ilk kez sagar (kapalı seramik kutu) kullanımı önemli bir buluş olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Kullanılan sagar kutuları sayesinde seramik yüzeyler tozdan, ateşten, alevden, dumandan korunmuş ve bu sayede yüksek kalitede seladonlar üretmek mümkün olmuştur. Sanatsal anlamda ise sagar, kapalı kutular içerisinde, seramiği direkt yanıcı maddelerle, ateş, alev ve dumanla karşı karşıya getirerek yapılan bir redüksiyonlu pişirim tekniğidir. Pişirim esnasında, sır kullanmadan değişik varyasyonlarda renk efektleri yakalanabilmektedir. Sonuç, önceden kestirilemeyen sürprizlerle doludur. Bu araştırmanın birinci bölümünde, sagar pişirim tekniğinin tanımlı, tarihsel gelişimi ve sagar pişirim tekniğini kullanarak çalışan seramik sanatçıları yer almıştır. İkinci bölümde, sagar pişirim tekniğinde kullanılan yöntemler, pişirimde kullanılacak formların hazırlanması, formlara uygun seramik kutuların üretilmesi, sagar pişiriminde kullanılan yardımcı malzemeler, sagar pişiriminde kullanılan fınnlar ve pişirim yöntemi araştırılmıştır. Üçüncü bölümde ise, yapılan seramik formlara sagar pişirim tekniği uygulanarak araştırma sonuçlandırılmıştır
Adam Smith reconsidered: history, liberty, and the foundations of modern politics/ Paul Sagar.
No full textA radical reinterpretation of Adam Smith that challenges economists, moral philosophers, political theorists, and intellectual historians to rethink him--and why he mattersAdam Smith has long been recognized as the father of modern economics. More recently, scholars have emphasized his standing as a moral philosopher--one who was prepared to critique markets as well as to praise them. But Smith's contributions to political theory are still underappreciated and relatively neglected. In this bold, revisionary book, Paul Sagar argues that not only have the fundamentals of Smith's political thought been widely misunderstood, but that once we understand them correctly, our estimations of Smith as economist and as moral philosopher must radically change. Rather than seeing Smith as either the prophet of the free market, or as a moralist who thought the dangers of commerce lay primarily in the corrupting effects of trade, Sagar shows why Smith is more thoroughly a political thinker who made major contributions to the history of political thought. Smith, Sagar argues, saw war, not commerce, as the engine of political change and he was centrally concerned with the political, not moral, dimensions of--and threats to--commercial societies. In this light, the true contours and power of Smith's foundational contributions to western political thought emerge as never before. Offering major reinterpretations of Smith's political, moral, and economic ideas, Adam Smith Reconsidered seeks to revolutionize how he is understood. In doing so, it recovers Smith's original way of doing political theory, one rooted in the importance of history and the necessity of maintaining a realist sensibility, and from which we still have much to learn.Frontmatter -- Contents -- Acknowledgements -- Abbreviations to Adam Smith's Works -- Introduction -- 1 Commercial Society, History, and the Four Stages Theory -- 2 Domination, Liberty, and the Rule of Law -- 3 Smith and Rousseau, after Hume and Mandeville -- 4 Whose Corruption, Which Polity? -- 5 The Conspiracy of the Merchants -- Conclusion -- Index1 online resourc

Self-Service
No full textCommissioned by Glasgow International 2018, Self-Service was a collaborative project produced in response to the archives of The Peckham Pioneer Health Centre. The title derives directly from the archives of the Peckham Experiment, which not only exists in the Wellcome Trust and RIBA but has strangely found its home in an unofficial private archive in Glasgow.
Collaborator Kirsty Hendry, Ilona Sagar came across a leaflet in the Glasgow archive with the caption: ‘Self-service not an expedient but a principle.’ The statement reads as a provocative foretelling. The hyphen of self-service troubles the position of ‘self’ within this transaction. Does it refer to self-in- service, self-serving or self-determining, self-sufficiency or self-care? Taking the form of an event series and publication, Self-Service bought together new works, and a range of invited collaborators and contributors to explore the history, design, and social context of welfare – examining our increasingly uneasy and technology infused relationship to health, wellbeing, and labour.
The publication included newly commissioned text by Ilona Sagar, Emma Balkind, Clara Crivellaro & Alex Taylor, Luke Frost, Kirsty Hendry, Alberta Whittle and Gary Zhexi Zhang. On the 26th April 2018 there was a screening programme that was the first of two events, developed as a companion to the publication. The event brought together artists’ moving image works by Liz Magic Laser, Julien Previeux, Gary Zhexi Zhang, Alberta Whittle, Leeds Animation Workshop, Ilona Sagar and Kirsty Hendry. Selected works explored how the politics of health are tangled with ideas of compliance, prosperity, and control.
The second event, Lab-oratory launched on the 6th May 2018 and was inspired by a serial publication authored by the members of the Peckham Experiment and titled ‘The Guinea Pig’. Through talks, discussion, and working directly with the archive, we collectively generated new responses to the original materials. Lab-oratory was a public event that considered questions of voice, agency, and authority in relation to the archive.
Contributors included Dr Elsa Richardson (Historian and Chancellor's Fellow University of Strathclyde), Dr Lisa Curtice (The Health and Social Care Alliance Scotland and Research Fellow in Health Policy University of Strathclyde and chair of the Pioneer Health Foundation), Henrietta Trotter (who worked as a student biologist at the Pioneer Health Centre), John Curtice (political scientist and BBC journalist), and Christopher Trotter (member of the Pioneer Health Foundation)

Full text linkThe priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level.
