Talia
No full textThe bachelor thesis deals with the rising trend in flax production. He perceives flax, its processing and properties as a mirror of a time when topics such as the climate crisis, fast fashion or overproduction are the center of attention. The company strives to respond to them with sustainability, locality and a zero waste lifestyle. This bachelor's thesis reflects the author's journey through the fashion scene and the sensation during her studies. As a metaphor for returning to the roots, he uses the original version of the Sleeping beauty story from 1634, called Sun, Moon and Talia. The author perceives Talia as her alter ego, as the form of the names Talia - Natália suggests. The original story is not mentioned as a flower on which the princess was pricked, but a rose but a flax. The work consists of a collection of clothes and uses a video medium and an advertising format for the presentation. The video is loosely inspired by the story of Sun, Moon and Talia

The link between moral anger and social activism: an exploratory study
No full text“In one autobiography after another we find the same story--the initial action for peace and justice is motivated by anger against injustice. Like the spark that ignites the fuel in an engine, anger is the stimulus that initiates action” (Adams, 2007, p. 10). This study explores one of the pathways to creating change, via examining the mechanism that allows some individuals who have experienced anger as a result of growing up under a system(s) of injustice to transform their anger into moral anger and subsequently into activism. Individuals who experience moral anger often perceive their anger as righteous and justified, linked to something greater than individual self-interest (Potter-Efron, 2005). A semi-structured interview that contained open-ended questions about the individual’s demographics and childhood, exposure to structural violence/social injustice, past and current involvement in social activism, description of moral anger, opportunities to express anger or discuss it with others, and hypotheses about the link between anger and activism was administered to fourteen individuals who self identified as activists. Grounded theory (Corbin & Strauss, 2008) was used to analyze the data. Many interviewees acknowledged times when they felt different from those around them during their childhood/adolescence and described being bothered by how people were treated during their childhood. While some were “intrinsically” drawn to activism, others came to activism through an external experience. The results indicate the importance of normalizing emotions, working together in a collective fashion, developing a critical consciousness through discrete educational experiences, a family legacy of activism, observing activism during childhood or adolescence, observing injustice, exposure to people from different cultures or with different opinions, surviving a family trauma, and accurately identifying emotions. Significant intersection was found between the factors, likely indicative of multiple pathways that work together in a cyclical manner to help individuals channel their anger into moral anger and subsequently into activism. Challenges to expect when channeling anger into activism, limitations of the study, and implications for future research are included. In addition, implications for future curriculum development, for adolescents who are currently experiencing anger as a result of social injustice, are also discussed.Psy.DIncludes bibliographical references (p. 132-136)by Talia Miriam Maste
Proposition for coastal metropolises in the age of rising seas and distributed centralization
No full textThesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2006.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Includes bibliographical references (p. 81-83).Premised upon the certain realities of the rise of urban sprawl, globalized dynamic networks, and sea levels, this thesis seeks to question these forces and mobilize the inherent potentials that lie within their intersections. Is contemporary urban form appropriate to contemporary urban culture? Do developing trends within network dynamics offer new potentials for spatial form? Does the forecasted flooding of coastal metropolises offer new grounds for such speculations? How might design begin to actively operate within such a scenario? Aligned within a tradition of visionary conceptions rooted in such considerations, this thesis project is a synthetic proposition of a new urban paradigm for dynamic water-based expansion -- one driven by and resulting from the particularities of its contemporary cultural position.by Talia Dorsey.M.Arch
Limits and relevance of the concept of hermeneutics in the aesthetic debate on 20th-century music
No full textThe essay examines the concept of poetics as an intermediate connective area between aesthetics and hermenutics - the two philosophical disciplines that have most influenced the reflection on music in general, and that of the 20th century in particular. The shift of the heuristic focus from the theoretical and genetic background of musical works that do not easily yield themselves to traditional analysis, to the foreground of its sound reality, that is, its performative, acoustic and ‘plastic’ dimensions, may trigger new insights and interpretations and ultimately provoke a change in the aesthetic perspective on the single work as well as on the whole production of an author. The paper shows how apparently opposing approaches such as David Lewin’s “theoreticcal machinery” - in some of its most creative applications - and Theodor Adorno’s metaphorical hermeneutics – in his famous Mahler essay – can bring to similar results in terms exegetic penetration and poetic representation
Daughter's Fever
No full textResearch Background: Led by singer-songwriter, Paddy Mann, of revered alt-folk group Grand Salvo, and composer/trumpeter/sound artist Peter Knight (trumpet and electronics) along with highly regarded Australian contemporary classical/jazz musicians Joe Talia (drums & Revox B77 tape machine) Erik Griswold (toy piano & prepared piano), Vanessa Tomlinson (junk percussion, marimba & vibraphone) and Andrew Brooks (saxophone), Daughter's Fever spins haunted folk, ambient pop and free improvised textures into an other-worldly place similarly inhabited by David Sylvian, Mark Hollis and Dean Roberts.
This work was funded by the Australia Council for the Arts, released on HellosQuare label. The Author is co-composer (with all 6 band members), performer and recording artist on this album.
Research Contribution: This work significantly contributes to the field of experimental music, examining the fringes of jazz, pop, improvisation and experimental musics. All works on the album were created collaboratively, using songs by Paddy Mann and ideas of Knight as a starting point. With all works collectively attributed to all band members, the individual creative contributions are fully acknowledged. This working methodology sits between improvisation and composition.
Research Significance: This work was funded through the Australian Council for the Arts, released on HellosQuare label, premiered at the Canberra International Jazz Festival with a further performance at the Melbourne Recital Centre. It contributes 60 minutes of new Australian music, bringing together a new creative team. Since this time the team have taken on board ambitious new artistic projects using the working methodology of Daughter’s Fever as a starting point. This work has been reviewed extensively. This album was long listed for Australian Music Prize 2015 and named in The Quietus half-year round up.No Full Tex
A critical examination of multidimensionality within the Hypomanic Personality Scale
No full textThe Hypomanic Personality Scale (HPS) is a psychometric assessment that identifies bipolar spectrum psychopathology and risk for bipolar disorders. Despite its conceptualization as a unidimensional scale, several studies have attempted to derive an underlying multidimensional structure of the HPS. Given the lack of consensus between these models, and the interest in elucidating the multidimensional structure of bipolar spectrum psychopathology, we attempted to replicate previous multidimensional models of the HPS with a large undergraduate and adult sample (n = 5002). We were unable to successfully replicate these prior models and derived, instead, two competing models of the underlying factor structure of the HPS. However, these models were limited by factors of unequal sizes and questionable content validity. We examined the associations of our two models with questionnaire and interview measures of affect and psychopathology. Ultimately, we concluded that the HPS is best employed in its original, unidimensional form. We recommend that the creation of a multidimensional assessment of bipolar spectrum psychopathology should follow from the development of a theoretically driven, comprehensive multidimensional model, rather than from parsing apart a useful, but largely unidimensional measure, such as the HPS.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2022-12-01The student, Talia Berson, accepted the attached license on 2020-11-04 at 10:54.The student, Talia Berson, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2020-11-04 at 11:12.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2020-11-04 at 16:29.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #15855 on 2021-03-04 at 16:19:25Made available in DSpace on 2021-03-05T21:40:41Z (GMT).

No full textGiulia Kamińska Di Giannantonio w swoim artykule pt.: "Mapa i mafia. O Drodze krajowej numer 106 Antonio Talii" proponuje analizę reportażowego tomu "Droga krajowa numer 106". W swoim artykule rekonstruuje nie tylko obraz 'ndranghety (kalabryjskiej mafii), przedstawiony w reportażu, ale także samej Kalabrii - regionu z którego wywodzi się ta organizacja przestępcza, zamieszkujących ją ludzi, panującego tam pojmowania sakrum, a nawet występujących fenomenów atmosferycznych. Nel suo articolo, l’autrice propone un’analisi del reportage Statale 106. Viaggio sulle strade segrete della ‘ndrangheta. Il testo ricostruisce non solo l’immagine della ‘ndrangheta presentata nel libro di Talia, ma anche la Calabria stessa, la regione da cui ha origine questa organizzazione criminale, le persone che vi abitano, l’interpretazione della sacralità che vi prevale, e persino i fenomeni atmosferici che vi si verificano.The author undertakes an analysis of the reportage volume Droga krajowa nr 106. The text reconstructs not only the image of the ‘ndrangheta (i.e., the Calabrian mafia) presented in the reportage but also of Calabria itself, the region from which this criminal organization originates, the local population, the prevailing way of understanding sacrum, and even the atmospheric phenomena typical of the region
What Are the Biological Mechanisms of Dream Abnormalities?
No full textIn this paper, we sought to understand both the biological and psychological mechanisms responsible for dream abnormalities, in hopes to use the information to improve our relationships with sleep and dreams and to understand these concepts on a deeper level. Previous research has predicted dream abnormalities by variables such as sleep fragmentation, altered sleep architecture, and the involvement of the prefrontal cortex. In our correlational study, we tested the strength of these relationships by examining naturalistic daily changes in their variables longitudinally over a two-week period. We used Fitbit devices to measure both sleep fragmentation (by the number of sleep interruptions) and REM sleep amounts, and used subjective scales to measure prefrontal cortex activity during REM sleep (by the level of risk-taking and impulsive behaviour in dreams), the lucidity of dreams, and the nightmarish nature of dreams. Though it varied across participants, data pooled in our correlation study showed that there was a significant correlation of nightmares and lucid dreaming with sleep fragmentation, altered sleep architecture, and prefrontal cortex activity during REM sleep. This correlational study supports the role of these biological mechanisms in producing dream abnormalities.Supervising Instructor & Course Number:
