    5. “Now He’s My Guy” | The 2023 UCF VLP Institute Podcast Series

    No full text
    In the fifth episode of “The 2023 UCF VLP Institute Podcast Series,” the “after-hours” edition continued as Sebastian Garcia spoke with two other teachers, Anne Makay (11th-grade US history teacher at Clearwater High School) Sgt. Maj. Ray Fullard (JROTC Instructor at Edgewater High School) and at the hotel after the Day 7 program of the Institute. Anne Makay’s fascinating candor throughout the conversation further revealed with tremendous clarity the indelible impact and significance the Institute had on the K12 teachers for their profession and in memorializing Veterans. She shared her takeaways on learning how to teach Veterans history, its relevance, and how this Institute has given her tremendous confidence to do so. Sgt. Maj. Ray Fullard’s experience as a Marine and participation in this Institute undoubtedly transformed the episode, as that is a unique and different perspective we had not heard of previously. Conflating their distinctive views ultimately provided greater insights as to why the work being done by UCF VLP matters. This episode was directed, produced, written, edited, and hosted by Sebastian Garcia, and featured Anne Makay and Sgt. Major Ray Fullard. Executive Producers: Sebastian Garcia and Dr. Amelia Lyons.

    Anne as Pagan, Anne as Queer

    No full text
    ‘Anne as Pagan, Anne as Queer’ is a critical and creative answer to the question: How do we construct Anne Shirley, and what does she mean to us? This creative research submission is a work of fanfiction, specifically a mash up based on Anne of the Island, L.M.M. Montgomery’s sequel to Anne of Green Gables. In this short work of fiction (under 4 thousand words) Anne is revealed as a changeling, one of the Faerie Folk, and also a being not strictly male or female; sometimes neither, sometimes both. The mash up is based on the last two chapters of Anne of the Island, the scenes in which Gilbert Blythe is seriously ill and Anne realises she loves him. This realisation causes Anne, in this version, to reveal to Gilbert that she is both non-human and not a girl, and to use Faerie magic to save Gilbert’s life. Anne’s revelation causes Gilbert a great relief, as he has been keeping a secret also - that he too is queer. The piece has an accompanying research statement and reflection, that reflects on the ways the contributor/author interprets Anne, as a being troubled by gender, and not strictly gender conforming. The much-loved scene from Anne of Green Gables in which Anne realises she is not wanted by the Cuthberts because she is not a boy is inserted into the mash up (as a memory) as this scene is the principal cause for the contributor’s identification with Anne as a gender non-conforming figure who resists gender expectations. Overall, this creative and critical work and reflection queers both Anne as a character and the Anne of the Island novel.Book chapter - work of fiction with a critical reflective essa

    2,2'-Bipyridine Equipped with a Disulfide/Dithiol Switch for Coupled Two Electron and Proton Transfer

    No full text
    [1,2]dithiino[4,3-b:5,6-b´]dipyridine (1) and its protonated open form 3,3´-dithiol-2,2´-bipyridine (2) were synthesised and their interconversion investigated. The X-ray structure of 2 revealed an anti orientation of the two pyridine units and a zwitterionic form. In depth electrochemical studies in combination with DFT calculations lead to a comprehensive picture of the redox chemistry of 1 in the absence and presence of protons. Initial one electron reduction at E1 = −1.97 V results in the formation of the radical anion 1red with much elongated S-S bond, which readily undergoes further reduction at E2 = −2.15 V. Water triggers a potential inversion (E ≥ −1.9 V for the second reduction) as the radical anion 1red is protonated at its basic N atom. DFT studies revealed that S−S bond breaking and twisting of the pyridine units generally occurs after the second reduction step while the potential inversion induced by protonation is a result of charge compensation. The CV data were simulated to derive rate constants for the individual chemical and electrochemical reactions for both scenarios in the absence and presence of protons.Fil: Cattaneo, Mauricio.

    A sojourn in Paris 1824-25: sex and sociability in the manuscript writings of Anne Lister (1791-1840)

    No full text
    This thesis examines the day to day practices that constituted Anne Lister's (1791-1840) sexuality and sociability within the range of her writings, as well as her society. Anne's writings were a detailed account, spanning her lifetime, of her own love and relationships with the 'fairer sex' (Whitbread 1988, 145). Anne's sociality, seen in her correspondence and plain handwritten journal entries, has been explored by Muriel Green in Miss Lister of Shibden Hall and Jill Liddington in Female Fortune and Nature's Domain (Green 1992; Liddington 1998; 2003). As a gentlewoman of adequate means, Anne has garnered some attention from women's historians interested in her agency within an early nineteenth century social and historical context. Anne's sexual identity has been extensively analysed over the past nearly twenty years by lesbian feminists, queer theorists, women's historians and historians of sexuality concerned with the history and development of modern Western female homosexuality and gender. The source for theorising Anne's sexuality has been the edited selections of the crypted journal entries, published by Helena Whitbread in I Know My Own Heart and No Priest but Love (Whitbread 1988; 1992). However, many analyses deal either with the theorisation of Anne's sexuality or her sociality; the theoretical difficulty with reconciling these categories has troubled the analysis of her complex subjectivity. Drawing upon the archival materials, I have used an interdisciplinary feminist approach to analyse the sexual and social processes of Anne's everyday interactions in her writings. Taking the seven month period of the sojourn to Paris in 1824-25, I have focused upon Anne's textual practices within her journal volume and letters during her residence in Paris, her social practices with the other guests at the guesthouse 24 Place Vendome and her sexual practices with her lover, the widow Mrs. Maria Barlow. The journal volumes and correspondence are a valuable historical record of one gentlewoman's engagement with early nineteenth century British culture

    It worked yesterday: On (re-)performing electroacoustic music

    No full text
    Playing electroacoustic music raises a number of challenges for performers such as dealing with obsolete or malfunctioning technology and incomplete technical documentation. Together with the generally higher workload due to the additional technical requirements the time available for musical work is significantly reduced. Many of the issues have their roots in composers, publishers, performers and promoters considering how their work process could easily be adapted to the additional demands of electroacoustic music. It was also found that the employment of music technologists cannot sufficiently make up for incomplete documentation and inadequate archiving of compositions. Using case studies made up of single compositions and whole concerts, solutions are proposed, which the several parties could effortlessly employ to considerably ease the process of preparing and performing electroacoustic music. Finally hands-on methods on how performers can deal with the situation as it is today are proposed. It is being hoped that by implementing these strategies not only better performances of electroacoustic music will be facilitated but also that electroacoustic works in general will enjoy a longer life-span in the future, thus enabling the sustenance of a vivid electroacoustic repertoire
