L’évidence concrète et permanente de la présence technologique est un phénomène collectif qui transforme les usages artistiques. Il se met en place un nouveau paradigme entre la personne et le transfert d’informations qui lui est associé. Les œuvres numériques hybrides, dorénavant contextuelles, s'inscrivent dès lors dans une histoire contemporaine de la création. Cependant, ces technologies ne sont pas neutres, et leur capacité connective en fait des outils complexes. Lorsqu’elles sont réappropriées par les artistes, ils en questionnent la nature même, leurs usages, leur économie, et même leur structure. Par ailleurs, les artistes utilisent les technologies mobiles pour faire émerger images et sons dans notre espace intime ; la participation physique devient un élément de communication, et les données générées par les mouvements atteignent l’individu. De telles œuvres mettent en jeu notre rapport à l’espace personnel et collectif, à la fois physique et informationnel. Cette étude se concentre sur les enjeux collectifs de multiples interventions artistiques et performatives. Nous y réclamerons l’espace de communication comme un nouvel espace public, pour constater que désormais il est en construction autour de nos corps mêmes, et qu’il est essentiel d’en négocier les modalités. La performance Interac Wearing est à l’origine de cette recherche, elle prend la forme d’un système de costumes communicant le rythme de la marche de ses utilisateurs ; et permettra de comprendre les enjeux de ces nouvelles relations artistiques. / The permanent and material evidence of technological presence is part of a collective phenomenon that transforms also artistic practices. A new paradigm is established between the individual and the information associated to the person; contextual and hybrid digital works are part of contemporary milieu, they also are actual tools for artistic endeavour. However, these technologies are not neutral and connective capacity makes for the emergence of complex tools. When they are re-appropriated, the very nature of technologies is questioned, artists probe different uses, they argument upon their economies, and even their structure. Moreover, artists use mobile technologies to produce images and sounds as close as our most intimate spaces. As participation is associated to physical exchanges, data generated from movements is associated to the art-work ; networked it reaches each individual participant. Therefore, these works address our relationship to personal and collective spaces both physical and informational. This study also focuses on collective issues raised by many artistic and performative interventions. We will reclaim communication space as a public space, and finally acknowledge that this space is now under construction around our own body, hence, it is essential to negotiate the new terms for this communication. Interact Wearing triggered this research, this system of communicating suits follow the rhythm of its walking users. This performance will guide us in understanding the issues raised by those new artistic relations.

Se propone una Aldea Infantil SOS en Lima Norte, distrito de Comas. Este distrito es el 4to distrito con mayor población de Lima y el segundo de Lima Norte con alrededor de 524 mil 894 habitantes según INEI. Este distrito tiene un margen de pobreza de 16%, ocupando el sexto lugar de Lima Norte y además en ocupar el tercer lugar en tener 3.9 áreas verdes/ hab., los dos primeros lo encabezan los distritos de Santa Rosa (18 mil 751 hab.) y Los Olivos (distrito menos pobre de Lima Norte: 9,75%). Hoy Lima Norte posee las características que facilitará el desarrollo del proyecto en sí, ya que cuenta con grandes extensiones de terrenos que pueden suplir la necesidad para abarcar el tamaño de que la edificación requiere y sigue siendo un sector de Lima vulnerable en cuanto a situación de niños que son víctimas de rechazo, violencia y abandono. Para esto, se hizo primero un criterio de selección para poder elegir el distrito adecuado para la aldea en Lima Norte según Aldeas Infantiles SOS, de los cuales se rescataron 4 ítems básicos: Índice de pobreza, densidad poblacional, cantidad de áreas verdes y el índice de denuncias por maltrato familiar y abandono de hogar. Finalmente se terminó escogiendo Comas por tener las características que se requieren para el establecimiento de la aldea. Se tiene pensado la construcción de las aldeas infantiles no como los albergues tradicionales, sino mediante hogares agrupados que buscan asimilarse a la forma de vida de una familia. / An SOS Children's Village is proposed in Lima Norte, district of Comas. This is the 4th district with the largest population of Lima and the second one with around 524 thousand 894 inhabitants according to INEI. This district has a 16% of poverty margin occupying the sixth place in Lima Norte and the third place to have 3.9 green areas per inhabitants. The first one is Santa Rosa with 18,751 inhab.) and the second one is Los Olivos (less poor district of Lima Norte: 9.75%). Today Lima Norte has the characteristics that will facilitate the development of the project itself, since it has large areas of land that can cover the size of the building required and remains a vulnerable sector of Lima in terms of Children who are victims of rejection, violence and abandonment. For this, four evaluation criteria were able to choose the appropriate district of Lima Norte according to SOS Children´s Villages, from which were: Poverty index, population density, number of green areas and the index of complaints about domestic violence and abandonment of home. Finally, it was finished choosing Comas for having the characteristics that are required for the establishment of the village. The construction of SOS Children´s Villages is planned not as traditional shelters, but through grouped homes that seek to assimilate the way of life of a real family. / Tesis

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the representation of trauma and memory in six post-Apartheid plays. The topic is explored through a treatment of the tropes of racial segregation, different forms of dispossession as well as violence. The thesis draws its inspiration from the critical and self-reflexive engagements with which South African playwrights depict the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The dramatists are concerned with the contested nature of the TRC as an experiential and historical archive. Others explore the idea of disputed and seemingly elusive notions of truth (from the embodied to the forensic). Through the unpacking of the TRC, as reflected in three of the plays, the thesis argues that apart from the idea of an absolute or forensic truth, the TRC is also characterised by the repression of truth. Furthermore, there is a consideration of debates around amnesty, justice, and reparations. Underpinning the politics and representations of trauma and memory, the thesis also interrogates the concomitant explorations and implications of identity and citizenship in the dramas. In the experience of violence, subjugation and exile, the characters in the dramas wrestle with the physical and psychological implications of their lived experiences. This creates anxieties around notions of self and community whether at home or in exile and such representations foreground the centrality of memory in identity construction. All these complex personal and social challenges are further exacerbated by the presence of endemic violence against women and children as well as that of rampart crime. The thesis, therefore, explores the negotiation of memory and identity in relation to how trauma could be mitigated or healing could be attained. The thesis substantially blurs the orthodox lines of differentiation between race and class, but emphasises the centrality of the individual or self in recent post-Apartheid engagements.

There are ideas that cities today compete in a global market in terms of investments, tourism and residents. This competition is based on the notion that cities' opportunity for development is dependent on human capital and financial flows. Which is seen as a limited resource; thus, the competition prevails. Providing well-planned and attractive meeting places in the city's public spaces is not only an important part of the cities' quest for growth but is also important for the social community. The public space acts as a space for individuals and groups where meetings can take place, dialogues can be conducted and ideas can be exchanged. The aim of this study was to investigate how families with children as a community group use and experience Umeå citycenter as a public space, and in what way they think the room could be made more attractive. To fulfil this studies purpose, a literature review has been carried out, in order to create an understanding of the concept of public space, meeting place and accessibility. Then a qualitative interview methodology has been utilized, where 14 families with children have been interviewed. The analysis of the study's theoretical framework and empirical evidence shows that Umeå's citycenter is characterized by a number of qualities. Among many of the families with children interviewed, the supply and resources are the primary cause of visiting the center. While a couple of the interviewed families with children mean that the place and the public environment are the strongest reasons for visiting the center. Based on the respondents' thoughts and opinions about the public space, it appears that accessibility and the range of activities have a huge influence on how the room is used and how the environment is perceived. In summary, the respondents gave a picture of the public space being of great importance for both individuals, different social groups and for the whole of society.

Esta dissertação reflete sobre a criação de um conjunto de operações poéticas realizadas no espaço urbano, cujo intuito é problematizar as influências que o \"corpo da cidade\" exerce sobre os corpos de seus habitantes e os processos de subjetivação subsequentes. Tem a cartografia como procedimento investigativo-base, que articula a pesquisa em três modos processuais: 1) o caminhar no espaço urbano de maneira errática, com o objetivo de formular e absorver questões que os múltiplos ambientes suscitam; 2) a produção de intervenções artísticas em espaços públicos, com vistas a interpelar locais e transeuntes, desviando-os da rotina prático-funcional através da abertura de \"frestas sensíveis\" no cotidiano das cidades; 3) produzir deslocamentos das questões do espaço público para espaços privados, por meio de acontecimentos estéticos que utilizam recursos principalmente da fotografia, do vídeo e da performance, para discutir reciprocidades afetivas entre sujeito e paisagem urbana. / This dissertation reflects on the creation of a set of poetic operations performed in urban space, whose purpose is to problematize the influences that the \"body of the city\" exerts on the bodies of its inhabitants and the subsequent subjectivation processes. It has the cartography as basic investigative procedure, which articulates research in three procedural modes: 1) walking in urban space in an erratic way, with the objective of formulating and absorbing questions that the multiple environments raise; 2) the production of artistic interventions in public spaces, with a aim of questioning local and passers-by, diverting them from the practical-functional routine by opening \"sensitive gaps\" in the daily life of the cities; 3) to produce shifts from public space issues to private spaces, through aesthetic events, that use resources mainly of photography, video and performance, to discuss affective reciprocities between subject and urban landscape.

Esta pesquisa propõe analisar o papel o dos artefatos na promoção da sociabilidade no Jardim da Luz, entre os anos de 1870 a 1930. As decisões políticas sobre os espaços públicos verdes tiveram suma importância, pois eram responsáveis pela inserção, reforma ou demolição de artefatos no espaço. Os artefatos, por sua vez, foram muito utilizados na composição das imagens presentes nos cartões postais e circularam pela cidade com o objetivo de exaltar os pontos modernos de São Paulo. No caso do Jardim da Luz, os postais circulados colaboraram para criar o imaginário a respeito do espaço como um local moderno e de sociabilidade. O local passou a ser usado para apresentações musicais, festas e encontros. Foram estudados três principais grupos no espaço: a elite paulistana, os trabalhadores e os fotógrafos lambe-lambe. O Jardim se tornou local representativo para esses grupos, um espaço de festas para alguns e para outros, ambiente de trabalho. Esta pesquisa, pelo estudo da cultura material, pretende compreender os usos dos espaços do Jardim da Luz como um espaço de sociabilidade e suas transformações ao longo do período em questão. / This research intends to analyse urban artifacts\' influence on Jardim da Luz\'s sociability from 1870 to 1930. Political decisions concerning green public spaces had extreme importance on it, as responsibles for artifacts insertion, reform or demolition ion the garden. Artifacts, in turn, were largelly used as background for postcard\'s which circulated through the city to exalt São Paulo\'s modern sights. In Jardim da Luz, Tthose postcards helped to create the ideia of a modern and social place in Jardim da Luz. It had begun to host musical presentations, parties and meetings. In this workstudy, were studied examined three major social groups which attended those events: elite from São Paulo, workers and street photographers. Jardim da Luz became a representative local for those groups, a party place for some and a work site for others. This research, through the study of material culture, intendsaims to understand Jardim da Luz\'s social usage and its transformation through the study of material culture through during the time studied.

Esta dissertação investiga as transformações dos espaços públicos da cidade de João Pessoa no período de 1889 a 1940, através da análise de suas formas, seus usos e suas denominações, alterados tanto no império como na república. Observando esses espaços dentro da dinâmica urbana, o estudo os observa tanto como agentes na transformação da paisagem urbana, quanto na condição de vetores de crescimento da cidade, abrangendo sua dimensão física, nos aspectos simbólico e representativo. Para tanto, a trama urbana, a arquitetura, os conceitos estéticos e as formas de apropriação desses espaços constituíram-se vetores de análise dessas transformações. A abordagem é feita em três períodos: a cidade do século XIX; os espaços públicos resultantes das alterações do período conhecido como primeiro ciclo de reformas urbanas (1916-1926), conduzidos principalmente por questões sanitaristas; e os espaços públicos produzidos na década de 1930, resultantes, sobretudo, de preocupações viárias e da renovação da arquitetura. Abrangendo esses três momentos, estuda-se o caso do Parque Solon de Lucena, espaço público cuja trajetória é tratada no último capítulo. / This dissertation investigates the transformation of public spaces in João Pessoa city in the period from 1889 to 1940, through the analysis of its forms, use and denominations, modified in the empire period as well as in the republic period. Observing these spaces inside the urban dynamics, the study observes them as urban landscape transforming agents, as well as in the condition of vectors to the growth of the city, enclosing its physical dimension, in the symbolic and representative aspects. For such, the urban raster, the architecture, the aesthetic concepts and the ways of appropriation of these spaces constituted vectors of analysis of these transformations. The approach is made in three periods: the city in XIX century; the public spaces resulting from the alterations of the period known as first cycle of urban reforms (1916-1926), lead mainly by sanitary matters, and the public spaces produced in the 1930 decade, resulting mainly from road concerns and the architecture renewall. Enclosing these three moments, it is studied the case of Parque Solon de Lucena, public space whose trajectory is dealt with in the last chapter.

Esta pesquisa investiga relações entre som e espaço, discutindo conceitos referentes à justaposição de entornos sonoros e físicos. Para tanto, a abordagem da pesquisa reside na discussão dessas relações a partir do uso de interfaces sonoras que promovam escuta coletiva em espaços públicos, constituindo entornos híbridos e proporcionando diferentes apreensões do espaço. Tratando-se de uma pesquisa multidisciplinar, o estudo busca aproximar as disciplinas da Arquitetura e Urbanismo e Estudos de Som. A investigação teórica contextualiza e fornece conceitos de ambos campos disciplinares sobre a função do som enquanto elemento do espaço. A partir dos conceitos trabalhados, são realizadas leituras de intervenções sonoras e a análise do experimento da pesquisa, que inclui a realização de uma intervenção. A intervenção consta no relocamento do conjunto de sons do trem para uma praça pública, de forma a dialogar com seu contexto e dinâmicas sociais e históricas, contribuindo para o surgimento de diferentes interpretações e reflexões das pessoas presentes. Dessa forma, reforça-se a importância da associação entre teoria e prática, que se constitui como procedimento fundamental para a investigação sobre o assunto. / This research investigates sound and space relationships, discussing concepts referred to the juxtaposition of sonic and physical environments. So, the research approach lies in the discussion of these relationships based on the use of sound interfaces which promote collective listening in public spaces, producing hybrid environments and promoting different apprehensions of space. As it is a multidisciplinary research, the study seeks to approach Architecture, Urbanism and Sound Studies disciplinary fields. Theoretical investigation contextualizes and provides concepts from both disciplinary fields on the role of sound as an element of space. From the developed concepts, readings on sound interventions are made as well as the analysis on the research\'s experiment, which includes the accomplishment of an intervention. The intervention is based on the relocation of a set of trains sounds to a public square, engaging with its context and social and historical dynamics, contributing to the appearance of different interpretation and thinking on the people present. Thus, the importance of the association between practice and theory is reinforced, which is fundamental for researching this subject.

Este trabalho trata, de modo específico, da apropriação do espaço na Vila Nova Jaguaré e, de modo geral, da forma como os processos de urbanização de favelas interferem na apropriação do espaço nesses assentamentos. Seu objetivo central é, portanto, descrever a apropriação do espaço verificada nessa favela recém-urbanizada, confrontando as teorias do pesquisador com o saber popular dos moradores sobre seu próprio lugar. Trata-se de uma aproximação a uma favela urbanizada, explorando essa nova realidade a partir de narrativas que articulam melhorias, oportunidades, conflitos e atividades que fazem parte de seu cotidiano. Em primeiro lugar, explora-se o contexto da formação do bairro do Jaguaré e da consolidação da Vila Nova Jaguaré, uma história marcada por diferentes períodos, em que a relação com o poder público, a organização dos moradores e o aspecto físico-urbanístico da Vila variaram muito. Em seguida, apresenta-se a apropriação das áreas livres na Vila Nova Jaguaré a partir de pesquisa de campo realizada entre2014 e 2017. Inicialmente, descreve-se as transformações que saltavam aos olhos do pesquisador e, depois, aprofunda-se a visão dos moradores sobre o momento atual do assentamento. Finalmente, confrontando posicionamentos individuais de moradores que situavam o momento atual entre avanços e impasses, observou-seque a favela urbanizada Vila Nova Jaguaré apresenta três narrativas principais. Ou seja, como a Vila Nova Jaguaré reúne novas condições de desenvolvimento, formalidade e institucionalidade juntamente com seus traços históricos de precariedade, informalidade, criminalidade e laços de vizinhança, dependendo do ponto de vista, pode ser considerada favela, comunidade ou bairro. Conclui-se, portanto, que, ao longo de sua consolidação, as melhorias urbanas e outras ações de reconhecimento de direitos sociais implantadas por parte do poder público não foram capazes de garantir a cidadania plena. A dimensão a que os moradores se referem como favela persiste, pois ela faz parte de seu processo de desenvolvimento,como se a urbanização da favela se desse simultaneamente à favelização do urbano. / This paper presents, specifically, the appropriation of space in Vila Nova Jaguaré and, generally, how slum upgrading processes interfere with the appropriation of space in these settlements. It\'s main objective is to describe the appropriation of space that was verified in this recently upgraded slum, comparing researcher\'s theories with common knowledge that dwellers have about their own site. Therefore, this paper is a scientific approach to an upgraded slum, exploring this new reality based on narratives that explores ameliorations, opportunities, conflicts and activities which are part of everyday life. First, it explores the context of the formation of Jaguaré and the consolidation of Vila Nova Jaguaré, a history marked by different periods in which the relation with the government, dwellers organization and physical appearance of the settlement have changed considerably. Next, this paper presents appropriation of public space in Vila Nova Jaguaré based on field research conducted between 2014 and 2017. Initially, it describes the evident transformations to the researcher\'s eyes, and then it explores dwellers\' point of view about settlement\'s current moment. Finally, comparing dwellers\' individual stances that placed the current moment between advances and impasses, it was observed that the upgraded slum Vila Nova Jaguaré presents three main narratives. In other words, as Vila Nova Jaguaré brings together new conditions of development, formality and institutionally along with its historical traits of precariousness, informality, crime and neighborhood ties, depending on the point of view, it can be considered slum, community or neighborhood. In conclusion, during the consolidation of Vila Nova Jaguaré, the urban improvements and other actions that recognize social rights implemented by the government were not able to guarantee full citizenship. The characteristics that dwellers refers to as slum persist because it is part of their development process, as if slum\'s urbanization occurred simultaneously with the urban\'s precariousness.
