Bill T. Jones Still/Here
No full textA look at dancer and choreographer Bill T. Jones's highly acclaimed dance: Still/Here. At workshops around the country, people facing life-threatening illnesses are asked to remember the highs and lows of their lives, and even imagine their own deaths. They then transform these feelings into expressive movement, which Jones incorporates into the dance Still/Here. Jones demonstrates the movements of his life story: his first encounter with white people, confusion over his sexuality, his partner Arnie Zane's untimely death from AIDS, and Jones's own HIV status.Danced by The Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company. Cinematography, Joel Shapiro and Don Lenzer ; edited by Geof Bartz ; music & lyrics for Still / by Kenneth Frazelle ; sung by Odetta.

The meaning of a republic
No full textJones, BT ORCiD: 0000-0002-4312-6995Australia is a country that has already embraced so many of
the finest features of republican philosophy. We believe in freedom,
equality, civic duty and the common good. Cicero claimed
that a republic is not just a group of people collected together in
any old way but a community of people committed to justice and the common good. When the Australian states federated in 1901, a
commitment was made to look beyond narrow individual interests
and to serve the common good. The hand of republicanism has
been on Australia's shoulder from colonial times to the present
day. As the renowned English republican Algernon Sidney put it,
the crew does not exist for the ship but the ship exists to serve the
people. Australia is destined to grow and prosper as a free and
independent republic, the champion of democracy and the home
of freedom

Connecting Research with Communities through Performative Social Science
No full textA pioneer in Performative Social Science, Kip Jones makes a case for the potential of arts-based social science to reach audiences and engage communities. Jones contextualises both the use of the arts in Social Science, as well as the utility of Social Science in the Arts and Humanities. The discussion turns next to examples from his own work and what happens when Art talks to Social Science and Social Science responds to Art. The benefits of such interaction and interdisciplinarity are outlined in relation to a recently completed project using multi-methods, which resulted in the production of a professional short film. In conclusion, Performative Social Science is redefined in terms of synthesis that can break down old boundaries, open up channels of communication and empower communities through engagement
Theoretical frameworks for the learning of geometrical reasoning
No full textWith the growth in interest in geometrical ideas it is important to be clear about the nature of geometrical reasoning and how it develops. This paper provides an overview of three theoretical frameworks for the learning of geometrical reasoning: the van Hiele model of thinking in geometry, Fischbein’s theory of figural concepts, and Duval’s cognitive model of geometrical reasoning. Each of these frameworks provides theoretical resources to support research into the development of geometrical reasoning in students and related aspects of visualisation and construction. This overview concludes that much research about the deep process of the development and the learning of visualisation and reasoning is still needed
