Placing Technology: An Interview with Yuk Hui
No full textIn this interview, the editors met with Professor Yuk Hui, the originator of the notion of cosmotechnics, to discuss the implications of cosmotechnical thinking for architecture, urbanism and design. While Hui\u27s work contains strong implications for architecture and spatial disciplines, he has rarely addressed them directly. In this far-ranging discussion, Hui brings together diverse topics, including the philosophy of Lewis Mumford, the cross-cultural history of cybernetics, and technology\u27s connection to sacred space

Population 24/7: building time-specific population grid models
No full textMany areas of social science research and public policy rely on small area geographical representations of population. Studies of disease prevalence, crime rates, exposure to environmental hazards, transportation modelling and the more applied challenges of emergency planning, service delivery and resource allocation rely fundamentally on statistics relating to the distribution of population. Grid-based population models have considerable advantages for population representation, offering more meaningful representation of settlement and neighbourhood pattern, including the geography of unpopulated areas, and providing stability through time. As a result, gridded models have seen extensive use where population must be integrated with environmental phenomena(Brainard et al., 2002; Mennis, 2003).Current approaches to spatial population modelling, whether based on conventional small areas or regular grids, rely almost exclusively on residential locations for the geographical referencing of population, drawing heavily on census definitions of the ‘resident population’.There are however, good conceptual and practical arguments for modelling population at different times, incorporating population movements from seasonal to diurnal timescales, so as to predict population exposure to a specific hazard, or potential customer numbers during a working day. This paper addresses these issues by presenting work in progress on a two-year project to develop 24-hour gridded population models of the UK. The project is based on an existing adaptive kernel density approach for building gridded population models (Martin, 1996), which is now being extended to become a spatiotemporal kernel density estimation method. We begin by briefly reviewing space-time population modelling methods, then move to discuss data sources and our modelling approach and conclude with some illustrative results from our initial wor

Kurixalus yangi Yu, Hui, Rao, and Yang 2018
No full textKurixalus yangi Individuals of Kurixalus yangi (Figure 2 B-C) were collected from forested areas near streams and in open areas with rain fed water bodies adjacent to vegetation cover at Sailam (MZUHC 194, MZUHC 195, MZUHC 196), Hmuifang (MZUHC 199, MZUHC 330), Tamdil (MZUHC 539) and Reiek (MZUHC 1170, MZUHC 1171). In the ML tree (Figure 2D), the sample sequences from Mizoram formed a clade with K. yangi from Yunnan (China), Kachin (Myanmar) and Nagaland (India). The genetic distance between the samples from Mizoram and the topotypic individual (Yunnan, China) is only 0.4% (Supplementary table 4). This represents a second confirmed record of this species from India as well as the westernmost known locality of this species. The genetic distance between the sample of K. yangi from Nagaland, India and other sequences of K. yangi is rather high (3.2–3.9%). However, the authors made a comment that their sequence is of low quality (Humtsoe et al. 2020).Published as part of Lalronunga, Samuel & Lalhmingliani, Esther, 2021, A new country record of Raorchestes cangyuanensis Wu, Suwannapoom, Xu Murphy & Che 2019 and additional record of Kurixalus yangi Yu, Hui, Rao & Yang 2018 (Anura: Rhacophoridae: Rhacophorinae) from India, pp. 383-390 in Zootaxa 4974 (2) on page 385, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4974.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/477578

Xi'an'daki Hui Müslüman kimliği
No full textÇin’de İslam’a inanan on etnik grup vardır, bu gruplardan bir tanesinin adı Hui’dir. Bugün, Hui halkı neredeyse tüm Çin şehirlerinde bulunur, fakat çoğu Xi’an şehri dahil olmak üzere Çin’in kuzeybatı bölgelerinde yaşamaktadır.Bin yıldan fazla bir süre önce, bazı Araplar, Persler ve Orta Asya’daki Müslümanlar, iş ve eğitim nedeniyle Kara İpek Yolu ve Deniz İpek Yolu ile Çin’e gelmişler ve Çin’de yaşamaya başlamışlardır. Bu batıdan gelen Müslümanlar, bazı Çinli kadınlarla evlenmişler ve nesiller boyu Çin’de yerleşmişlerdir. Zamanla, onlar ve çocukları Çin kültürünü öğrenmeye çalışmışlar ve böylece onların “Çinlileşme” süreci de başlamıştır. Çin’deki Yuan (元) Hanedanlığı (MS 13. yüzyıl) döneminde, “Hui ataları” Çin hükümeti tarafından hanehalkı kayıt defterine kaydedilmiş ve Çin vatandaşı oldukları kabul edilmiştir. O zamandan itibaren, Hui ataları resmi olarak Çin vatandaşlığının bir parçası haline gelmiştir. Hui ataları, Çince ve geleneksel Çin Konfüçyüs kültürünü öğrenirken İslami inançlarından vazgeçmediler. Onun yerine, Hui halkının ataları, eğitim yoluyla İslami inançları ve kültürleri miras olarak aktarmaya çalıştılar.Çin’deki Ming (明) Hanedanlığı (M.S. 14. yüzyıl) döneminde, Hui grubu, kendi özel kültürüyle bağımsız bir ulus oldu. Hui’lerin Müslüman ve Çinli vatandaş olarak ikili kimlikleri, Hui kültürünün ikili özelliklerini belirler. Hui kültürü, İslam ve Çin kültürünün kaynaşmasının sonucudur. Başka bir deyişle, Hui kültürü hem İslam kültürünün içeriğine hem de Çin kültürünün içeriğine sahiptir.Peki, binlerce yıldır, Çin topraklarında hayatta kalan Hui halkı her zaman benzersiz kültürlerini ve kimliklerini nasıl koruyabilir? Bu tez, Hui halkının tarihinin, ekonomisinin, eğitiminin ve kültürünün dört ana yönünü tanıtıp, aynı zamanda “On Faktör”ün Hui grubu ve Hui kimliği oluşturulmasındaki rolü üzerine derin bir analiz yaparak, Çin’deki Hui Müslümanlarının kimliğini ve bu özel kimliği koruyabilmelerinin nedenlerini açıklamaya çalışmıştır.Giriş bölümü, bu tezin yazılması için teorik temeli oluşturan araştırma konusunu, amacını, yöntemlerini ve bu tezle ilgili teorik çerçeveyi ve kavramları tanıtmıştır. Etnik kimlik teorisine ek olarak bu tezin yazarı şunları önermektedir: etnik oluşum, ulusal kimlik inşası ve ulusal kimliğin korunması sürecinde savaş ve doğal afetler gibi dış ve nesnel faktörlere ek olarak, dini inançlar, kan ilişkileri, ulusal politikalar, ekonomi ve ticaret, eğitim stratejileri, dil ve yazı, halk kültürü, yerleşim yapısı ve etnik gruplar arası etkileşim çok önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Kısaltma: “Ulusal Kimliği Etkileyen On Faktör”.Ⅰ. Bölüm “Xi’an’daki Hui Müslümanların Tarihçesi”nde Hui’nin Çin’de oluşumu ve gelişiminin tarihçesi tanıtılmaktadır.Ⅱ. Bölüm “Xi’an’daki Hui Müslümanların Ekonomik Durumu”nda Çin’in farklı dönemlerinde Hui ekonomisinin gelişimi ve durumu tanıtılmaktadır.Ⅲ. Bölüm “Xi’an’daki Hui Müslümanların Eğitim Durumu”nda Çin tarihinde farklı dönemlerde Hui halkının eğitiminin farklı biçimleri ve içeriği ve bu eğitim formlarının ve içeriğinin Hui kültürünün oluşumu ve miras olarak aktarılması üzerindeki etkileri tanıtılmaktadır.Ⅳ. Bölüm “Xi’an’daki Hui Müslümanların Kültürel Gelenekleri”nde ahlâki özellikler, yaşam törenleri, bayramlar, gıda kültürleri, giysiler ve sanatlar olmak üzere altı açıdan Hui’lerin kültürel geleneklerinin içeriği ayrıntılı olarak tanıtılmaktadır.Ⅴ. Bölüm “Xi’an’daki Hui Müslüman Kimliğinin Kapsamlı Analizi”nde Hui halkının kimliğinin ikili özelliği, “On Faktör” arasındaki ilişkileri incelenip, Hui etnik grubunun oluşumunda, ulusal kimliğin inşasında ve kimliğin korunmasında “On Faktör” tarafından oynanan rol kapsamlı bir şekilde analiz edilmektedir.Bu tezin ana çerçevesi ve fikri bu şekildedir.Sonuç olarak tez yazarı, “On Faktör” perspektifinden “Çinli” ve “Müslüman” ikili kimliğini şekillendirmek ve korumak için Hui halkına yardım etmemiz gerektiğine inanmaktadır. Böylece Hui Müslümanlarının kimliğinin benzersizliği korunabilir. Çünkü Hui halkının bu özel kimliğinin oluşumu ve sürdürülmesi, Hui kültürünün korunması ve miras olarak aktarılması için çok önemlidir. Hui kültürü, Hui’nin bağımsız bir etnik grup olarak var olmasının temel nedenidir.There are ten ethnic groups in China that believe in Islam, one of them is Hui. Today, the people of Hui are located in almost all Chinese cities, but most of them live in the northwestern regions of China, including the city of Xi’an.More than a thousand years ago, for business and education reasons, some Arabs, Persians, and some Muslims in Central Asia through the Land Silk Road and Sea Silk Road, came to China and started living in China. These western Muslims married some Chinese women and settled in China for generations. Over time, they and their children tried to learn about Chinese culture; therefore, their “sinicization” process began.During the Yuan Dynasty (13th century AD) in China, the “Hui ancestors” were recorded into the household registration book by the Chinese government and considered to be Chinese citizens. Since then, Hui ancestors have officially become part of Chinese citizens. Hui ancestors did not give up their Islamic beliefs while learning Chinese and traditional Chinese Confucian culture. Instead, the ancestors of the Hui people tried to inherit Islamic beliefs and cultures through education.During the Ming Dynasty (14th century AD) in China, the Hui group became an independent nation with its own special culture. As a Muslim and a Chinese citizen, those dual identities of Hui people determine the dual characteristics of Hui culture. Hui culture is the result of the fusion of Islam and Chinese culture. In other words, Hui culture has both the content of Islamic culture and the content of Chinese culture.This thesis examines how the Hui people who have survived on the land of China always maintain their unique culture and identity for thousands of years. It introduced the four major aspects of the history, economy, education, and culture of the Hui people and also analyzed deeply the role of the “Ten Factors” in the formation of the Hui nationality and the identity of the Hui nationality, and tried to explain the identity of the Hui Muslims in China and the reasons why they can maintain this special identity.The introduction part introduced the research theme, methods and theoretical framework and concepts related to this thesis, which lays the theoretical foundation for the writing of this thesis. As a supplement to the theory of ethnic identity, the author proposes that in the process of ethnic formation, national identity construction, and the maintenance of national identity, in addition to external and objective factors such as war and natural disasters, religious beliefs, blood relations, national policies, economy and trade, education strategies, language and writing, folk culture, settlement structure and interaction between ethnic groups played a very important role. Short title: “Ten Major Factors Affecting National Identity”.The first part of the thesis “The History of Hui Muslims in Xi’an” introduced the history of the formation and development of the Hui people in China.The second part of the thesis “Economic Status of Hui Muslims in Xi’an” introduced the development and status of Hui economy in various periods.The third part of the thesis “Educational Status of Hui Muslims in Xi’an” introduced the different forms and contents of the education of the Hui people in different periods in Chinese history, and the influence of these Hui education forms and contents on the formation and inheritance of Hui culture.The fourth part of the thesis “Cultural Traditions of Hui Muslims in Xi’an” introduced the content of Hui culture traditions in detail from six aspects: moral characteristics, life ceremonies, festivals, food cultures, clothing and arts.In the fifth part of the thesis “Comprehensive Analysis of Hui Muslim Identity in Xi’an”, the author analyzes the dual characteristics of the Hui identity, analyzes the relationship between the “Ten Factors”, and comprehensively analyzes the role played by the “Ten Factors” in the formation of the Hui ethnic group, the construction of their national identity and the maintenance of their identity. These are the main frame and writing idea of this thesis.In the end, the author believes that we should help the Hui people to shape and maintain their dual identity of “Chinese” and “Muslim” from the perspective of “Ten Factors”, so as to maintain the uniqueness of the Hui identity. Because the formation and maintenance of the special identity of the Hui people is very important for the protection and inheritance of the Hui culture. The Hui culture is the fundamental reason why the Hui can exist as an independent ethnic nation in China
