Interessa à esta pesquisa reconhecer ligações, características e elementos presentes na elaboração dos trabalhos desenvolvidos entre 2002 e 2016. / The research “CaligrafiAsnoum: graffiti, calligraffiti and creation of visual signs” developed in the Master’s degree in Visual Arts, at UFPEL, reflects the process of creation produced in three moments of my history as artist/graffiti artist: in grafitti as language and visual expression, the representation of alphabetic signs without the intention of legibility also approaches an historical questions about concepcion, authorship and social inclusion; in calligraffiti as a new work style, that involves the writing calligraphic and the graffiti, when the meaning of the word starts to work as a verbal writing; and in the development of new visual signs, a recoding of alphabetic code creating a visuality/language, where the meaning of what is written remains in the second plan, and the focus is the visuality written. Interest to this research recognize links, features and elements present in the preparation of the work done between 2002 and 2016.

Partindo do caráter híbrido do Teatro de Animação, o presente estudo analisa aspectos de procedimentos criativos que se apresentam como especificidades na trajetória do ator rumo à criação da cena nesta linguagem. Para tanto, vale-se de pesquisa de campo realizada nos seguintes grupos teatrais dedicados ao Teatro de Animação e atuantes na cidade de São Paulo: Cia. Truks, Sobrevento, Morpheus Teatro e Seres de Luz Teatro. Neles foram observados processos de criação de espetáculos, bem como procedimentos em treinamentos e oficinas. O estudo ampara-se ainda em pesquisa de escopo teórico referente às relações estabelecidas entre artes plásticas e cênicas no Teatro de Animação contemporâneo e aos métodos de trabalho e preparação do ator, bem como aspectos concernentes a sua atuação com objetos, bonecos, máscaras e outros materiais. O resultado revela uma reflexão verticalizada em direção às particularidades que se apresentam nos procedimentos de criação da cena pelo ator-manipulador. / Considering the hybrid nature of the Theater of Animation , this present work analyzes the scene conception through specific creative procedures usually performed by the actor of this kind of language. In order to achieve this aim, it presents a field survey accomplished at the following Theater of Animation companies of São Paulo: Cia. Truks, Sobrevento, Morpheus Teatro e Seres de Luz Teatro. In these companies processes of scene conception were registered, as well as procedures applied in trainings and workshops. This study is based in theoretical research about the relationship between visual arts and theater art in the contemporary Theater of Animation and the working method of the actor. It also investigates his relationship with objects, puppets, masks and other materials. The result reveals a deep reflection about the peculiarities of scene creation procedures performed by the puppeteer actor.

Researching through design, this thesis explores the implementation of an online kit as a means through which the postmodern individual can participate in the creative processes of home sewing. Through the development of a knowledge network that is built on co-creation, a new approach to the traditional producer/consumer relationship is investigated. This network is used to encourage the fulfilment of self through the process of re-creation, while targeting the contemporary consumer by combining electronic resources and social networking with the hands-on nature of creative process.

This thesis presents an Advanced Placement curriculum for the concentration section of the Drawing Portfolio. It is intended as a teaching tool to encourage and develop creative strategies related to idea generation and refinement based on creative problem solving, which is essential to the development of an effective concentration. One of the most difficult problems faced by Advanced Placement Studio Art students is idea generation for the artwork related to a central topic for the concentration section of their portfolios. This curriculum introduces lessons based on artist research, brainstorming, synectics, and SCAMPER techniques designed to foster creative idea generation for artwork development. It also gives students a tool with which to analyze the ideas generated based on specific criteria necessary to the concentration. This curriculum specifically encourages the creative process in students and provides teachers with a foundation with which to begin a unique and highly personal journey by the individual student.

Repertoire comprises the curriculum of school music ensembles, yet its selection by music educators is unsystematic, commonly influenced by publishers, and lacking in thoughtful critique (Budiansky, 2005; Forbes, 2001). Research reports that musical worth and pedagogical value are foremost criteria in repertoire selection (Devore, 1989; Ostling, 1978). This ethnographic research explored relationships between musical worth and pedagogical value in works and perspectives of Emma Lou Diemer and Alice Parker, two prominent female composers whose extensive catalogs include music written for educational settings. Data were collected via methods consistent with qualitative inquiry. Smith’s (2003) Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was employed to facilitate co-construction of the composers’ lived experience through personal interviews. Data analysis also incorporated previous texts written about and by the composers, and three choral works of each composer. In this study, Panofsky’s (1972) method of visual art analysis was applied to musical analysis. Findings were presented within single-case and cross-case narratives. Although the composers’ work and perspectives are distinctive, their perceptions of musical worth and pedagogical value transcend their individual qualities. Criteria for creating art for educational settings include: using text as a basis for creating musical meaning, recognizing and emulating the work of composers that they find exceptional; and engaging in an artful, synergistic treatment of musical elements. Diemer and Parker share the belief that longevity, originality, expressivity, and sustained interest are characteristics of music of worth. They offered authentic engagement, holistic learning, and matching skill with challenge as integral aspects of pedagogical value. The motivation that compels Diemer and Parker to compose is both external and internal, and is more oriented toward process than product. In creating works for educational settings, they internalize parameters applicable to specific learners and settings. A “spark” they experience in the creative process indicates the origin of musical worth. Pedagogy derived from and integral to the musical worth of a work allows musically engaged students to recreate the “spark” and thus realize pedagogical value. Within the works and perspectives of Diemer and Parker, musical worth and pedagogical value become unified as a composite whole, though the “spark” is realized in a cyclic process.

This study developed a Methodology for the systematic and strategic fostering of creativity in graphic design education at university level. The thesis identified four social-psychological factors that have an effect on graphic design students' creative ability, namely their level of intrinsic motivation for creative activities; their ability to maintain autonomous, self-regulative behaviour that is conducive to creativity; a healthy self-belief in their creative ability and the minimization of negative stress in the educational milieu where creative tasks are undertaken. Each of these factors imply a range of strategies that may be used to maintain and stimulate creativity in graphic design education, such as the use of certain types of feedback, evaluation procedures that supports creativity, the creation of a safe, democratic, non-controlling classroom climate or the deliberate use of music and humoristic activities in the educational milieu. Additionally, a range of cognitive strategies that may be used for idea generation in graphic design are proposed. They include divergent thinking techniques, such as 'Random Association'; 'Morphological Synthesis'; 'Metaphors and Analogies'; 'Mind-mapping'; 'Idea Checklist'; 'Visual Thinking' and 'Sense Connections'. Each technique is described in terms of its unique methodology, advantages, creative potential and its applicability to graphic design. The study also proposes a tactical approach to the creative process, suggesting various cognitive strategies that may be used for each phase of the creative process. These strategies ensure that the whole spectrum of cognitive activities required for the successful production of a creative product is executed. The sum of these cognitive and social-psychological strategies provided the basis for the development -of two theoretical constructs that may be implemented as part of an undergraduate graphic design curriculum to cultivate creativity in students. They are: (1) a Learning Program in Creativity studies that consists of a number of study units and aims to provide tuition in the theoretical foundation that students need to enhance their creative ability (2) a range of General Guidelines that aim to provide educators with a range of didactic strategies and practices to support and stimulate creative ability in graphic design students. / Thesis (Ph.D. (History of Arts))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2006.

Professional dance companies which reflect a Christian worldview are slowly emerging within the dance community, but this is territory which is generally uncharted academically, especially in Australia. Consequently, this paper is an ethnographic study of an Australian professional dance company of this kind. ask dance theatre is a professional dance company located in Sydney. Established in February 1999, it has three key personnel - Phillippa-Oakden Patch (artistic director/ choreographer/dancer), Hannah Horsley Cooper (choreographer/dancer) and Steve Cooper (composer/musician). Developing a philosophy based on a biblical worldview, one of the company's aims is to provide a &quotnurturing environment for artists of different disciplines to grow artistically and spiritually while creating dance theatre works". This has involved working collaboratively, incorporating dancers, singers, musicians, visual artists and actors, to create original works which have been performed at major contemporary dance and Christian arts events in New South Wales, Australia. Through the ethnographic methods of participant observation, interviewing and document analysis, details of this company's worldview as a group of &quotcommitted Christians" and their creative process was researched. This paper focuses on the description, analysis and interpretation of their creative process in the production of a new work during the first six months of 2001, identifying how their Christian worldview is reflected in their creative process.

The present master s degree thesis is related to the research line in Education and Arts of the Post Graduation Program on Education in the Federal University of Santa Maria/RS. In this sense, it had as main objective to investigate, to describe and to analyze the childhood memoirs told by three teachers of Visual Arts at the House of Culture of Santa Maria and through these, to develop the teaching creative process of them. Therefore, the methodology was characterized by a qualitative approach whose History of Topical Life was approached as a methodological line. Data were collected starting from semi-structured interviews, documental analysis and field diary as form of recording of the thoughts and of each teacher's production. About ten meetings were accomplished at the House of Culture. Then, the theoretical contribution was structured, the former, in authors that referred to the social and collective constitution of the memory (HALBWACHS, 2006; BOSI, 1994; TEDESCO, 2002, FÈLIX, 1998 and 2002; GONDAR,2005, among other) still, it was made some relationships between memory and the contemporary artistic context (KANTON, 2001; DANTO, 2006; CAUQUELIN, 2005). The latter, it was discussed on the teaching creative process as the creative process in arts, the teacher's continuous education and the influences of the personal and professional constitution in which is referred to the educational practice of them (NÓVOA, 1996; GOODSON, 1996 and 2006; OF MASI, 2003; SALLES, 1998; MARTINS, 2006, etc). Thus, in the main childhood memoirs brought by the teachers it is pointed the images and histories on family routines, the importance of the family, the lived difficulties, games, smells, tastes and flavors of the childhood that were shared with the group. The regarded teachers have graduated in a same period and because of that it was noticed similarities of experiences lived in the childhood and in their education in arts. None of them developed a creative process in art, for that, the research contributed as an incentive to the visual production as an opportunities to rethink arts methodologies and conceptions with their students. / A referida dissertação de mestrado vincula-se à linha de pesquisa em Educação e Artes do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria/RS. Neste sentido, teve-se como objetivo principal investigar, descrever e analisar as memórias de infância relatadas por três professoras de Artes Visuais da Casa de Cultura de Santa Maria e através destas, desenvolver o processo criativo docente das mesmas. A metodologia caracterizou-se por uma abordagem qualitativa cuja linha metodológica abordou-se a História de Vida Tópica. Os dados foram coletados a partir de entrevistas semi-estruturadas, da análise documental e do diário de campo como forma de registro dos pensamentos e da produção de cada professora. Os encontros foram realizados na própria Casa de Cultura, cerca de dez ao todo. O aporte teórico estruturou-se, num primeiro momento, em autores que referiam-se à constituição social e coletiva da memória (HALBWACHS, 2006; BOSI, 1994; TEDESCO, 2002, FÉLIX, 1998 e 2002; GONDAR, 2005, dentre outros) ainda, fez-se algumas relações entre memória e o contexto artístico contemporâneo (CANTON, 2001; DANTO, 2006; CAUQUELIN, 2005). Num segundo momento, discutiu-se sobre o processo criativo docente entendido como o processo criativo em artes, a formação continuada do professor e as influências da constituição pessoal e profissional no que se refere à prática educativa das participantes (NÓVOA, 1996; GOODSON, 1996 e 2006; DE MASI, 2003; SALLES, 1998; MARTINS, 2006, dentre outros). Assim sendo, nas principais memórias de infância trazidas pela professoras, apontamos as imagens e histórias sobre costumes familiares, a importância da família, as dificuldades vividas, brincadeiras, cheiros, gostos e sabores da infância que foram compartilhados com o grupo. As professoras em questão graduaram-se numa mesma época e percebeu-se semelhanças de experiências vividas na infância e na formação em arte. Nenhuma delas desenvolvia um processo criativo em arte, assim sendo, a pesquisa colaborou no estímulo à produção visual vendo nos trabalhos produzidos possibilidades para se repensar metodologias e concepções sobre arte com seus alunos.

O presente estudo aborda o processo de criação do ator pelo viés da busca da organicidade das ações do ator em cena, organicidade esta ligada a uma ação real promovida pelo contato entre o ator e demais sujeitos e elementos da cena. Através de uma investigação empírica com grupos de atores, buscou-se pesquisar de que forma o Contato Improvisação pode contribuir para a prática do ator. Partindo da noção de contato como propulsor do impulso criador, buscou-se descortinar procedimentos que contribuem para o desenvolvimento de competências técnicas do ator levando à ascese de um comportamento orgânico em cena. Constituiu-se como material de análise o diário de campo da pesquisadora, os diários de campo dos atores, assim como registros em vídeo do processo, contendo atividades e depoimentos dos atores envolvidos. Para a concretização da pesquisa em questão também foi realizada revisão bibliográfica acerca do Contato Improvisação, incluindo materiais de Steve Paxton, criador desta dança. Como referenciais para a abordagem das peculiaridades do trabalho do ator, são utilizados os estudos de Jerzy Grotowski, de quem partem as principais terminologias que serviram como base para a pesquisa, Constantin Stanislavski e Augusto Boal, escolhidos por trazerem em seus estudos o contato como competência primordial à criação. Complementam a pesquisa teorias de Gaston Bachelard, José Gil, dentre outros estudos relevantes para a investigação em questão, como proposições da fenomenologia experimental. / This study investigates the actor's creative process through the point of view of the organicity of actor‟s actions. This organicity is linked to a real action caused by contact between the actor and other people and elements of the scene/stage. Through an empirical research with groups formed by actors, we sought to find how the Contact Improvisation can contribute to the actor‟s practice. Following the concept of contact as the creative impulse propellant, we sought to present procedures that contribute to the development of actor's technical skills that can induce the emergence of an organic behavior in the scene. Constituted as material for analysis: the researcher‟s field diary, field diaries of actors as well as video recordings of the proceedings, containing activities and testimonies of those involved. For the realization of this research, literature review was also performed in Contact Improvisation, including materials of Steve Paxton, the creator of this dance. As theoretical references to approach the peculiarities of the actor's work, we use studies of Jerzy Grotowski, who gives the main terminologies that served as the basis for research, Constantin Stanislavski and Augusto Boal, chosen because they present in their studies the contact as a primordial skill of creation. Theories of Gaston Bachelard, José Gil, and others relevant studies, as propositions of experimental phenomenology, complement the research.
