Författarens ensamhet och skrivandets väsen : Om ensamhet, abjekt och skrivande som blivande och subjektets performativa praktik / Abjection and Writing in Solitude : The phenomenology of the writer and writing as becoming of the performative subjectKarlén, Yechidah Jessica January 2022 (has links)
This is an investigation on writing, through writing, with writing, on and in thinking with Julia Kristeva’s theory on abjection. This paper aims to research the subject of abjection as writing and does so by reading the meaning of solitude in the writings of Maurice Blanchot, Marguerite Duras and primarily the work Aqua Viva by Clarice Lispector. This paper wishes to establish a philosophical framework for future research within writing as an artistic practice.

En resa från det ordlösa : en kartläggning av ett personligt yrkeskunnandeLjungberg, Roland January 2008 (has links)
A Journey from the Wordless is a study of the development of the author’s own professional knowledge. After an introductory chapter on theory and method, there are four chapters treating of the author`s academic training as an artist (Ch. 2), a presentation and analysis of his own exhibitions (Ch. 3), a chapter on a cooperative effort entitled Pompeii in Time and Space (Ch. 4), and a concluding discussion of the nature of personal knowledge (Ch. 5). Questions are addressed concerning artistic knowledge; how it is built and transferred and how it is developed and transformed. Since the author`s own professional knowledge is the object of the research, special perspectives on personal experience emerges that otherwise would be difficult to articulate. The thesis is also a contribution to the debate surrounding artistic research in the visual arts, focusing on the importance of reflection and analysis in art education and creative art work.

Zero magic : Shifting the Valuation ConventionGoldin, Simon January 2016 (has links)
Zero Magic is a trick for the financial markets, which has the capacity to undermine the perceived value of a publicly traded company and profit from this. Short selling is a way of profiting from loss: Making money if and when a target company loses in value. It is a fundamental market activity that goes as far back as the first stock, yet to this day little is publicly known about the strategies employed by short sellers. On the US exchanges there is no requirement for hedge funds to disclose short positions, and in other jurisdictions such requirements are very limited. Zero Magic was developed by covertly infiltrating a secretive hedge fund specializing in short selling, and reverse engineering its methods. In brief, the hedge fund’s trading strategy is based on identifying suitable short selling targets through analyzing networks of corruption, and then framing critical newsworthy stories about these target companies that can be anonymously distributed among journalists. Profit is gained when a target company loses in value. Rigorous measures are taken by the fund never to be identified as the source of a negative campaign.Access to the hedge fund was gained through the art world. The founder and co-director routinely supports artists and art institutions and is said to have gotten the idea for his fund when looking at a Mark Lombardi drawing (an artist known for mapping networks of power and corruption). It is hard to tell whether the founder’s engagement with art merely entertains personal vanity, or if it functions more strategically as a means of “secret publicity” for the fund; giving access to investors, while staying under the radar of more mainstream public relations. Covert techniques such as hidden recordings and proxy researchers were used to uncover the fund’s methods. With the assistance of Théo Bourgeron, sociologist of finance, Zero Magic not only reconstructs the workings of the trading strategy, but offers a fully operational magic gimmick. The magic gimmick is a computer program providing non-expert users the means to identify relevant short selling targets (companies with weak “valuation conventions”), and a step-by-step guide to undermining their perceived value. With this gimmick one can execute a successful short sale without any previous contacts in the investor community or access to insider information. A US patent application for the trick was filed in January 2016.The artistic PhD “Zero Magic: Shifting the Valuation Convention” concludes with a stage performance and a magic box:The stage performance, “On a Long Enough Timeline the Survival Rate for Everyone Drops to Zero” with magician Malin Nilsson, performed on May 11 and 12, 2016, at Cirkus Cirkör, Stockholm. Through the ticket sales, audience members are drawn into the Zero Magic trick, buying into the predicted future loss of a target company. The magic box, prepared for public archives, contains the Zero Magic computer software, a US patent application for a “Computer Assisted Magic Trick Executed in the Financial Markets” and four historical examples of magic tricks played out beyond the stage, in the world at large.

Öppna väggar : En studie av graffiti som kulturell och estetisk praktik / Open walls : A study of graffiti as a cultural and aesthetic practiseBoström, Rajja January 2018 (has links)
Denna undersökning syftar till att hitta utvecklingsmetoder för hur jag som bildlärare i skakunna undervisa om graffiti och gatukonst, som en del av kontexten samtidskonst ur ettteoretiskt och estetiskt perspektiv på lärande. Jag valde att fördjupa mig i graffiti som visuellkultur och genom ett konstnärligt undersökande utveckla min egen praktik och estetiskakunnande utifrån tekniska metoder och material. Dessa hämtade från kreativa praktiker inomtraditionell graffiti för att utveckla min kunskap genom kroppslig upplevelse.Undersökningens frågeställning är: På vilka sätt kan graffiti som praktik förstås genom ettkonstnärligt praktiskt undersökande, i ett utvecklingsdidaktiskt syfte?Genom A/R/Tography som metodologiskt förhållningssätt har jag under studien agerat somkonstnären, forskaren och läraren (Artist - Researcher - Teacher) och undersökt graffiti somvisuell kultur . Under den gestaltande redovisningen och examensutställningen, menar jag attförsöka återskapa platsen för min studie, och synliggöra de förutsättningar som styrt minkreativa praktik och individuella lärprocess . Syftet med den slutgiltliga gestaltningen är attbjuda in till en interaktiv installation med en öppen vägg i ständig förändring. Här jag vill gebesökare möjlighet att få ny kunskap och själva få uppleva en graffiti inspirerad kreativprocess.

Previous issue date: 2018-02-02 / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Goiás - FAPEG / This study deals the averse teaching of four visual arts teachers in the professional education context from their life histories. In order to discuss variables of the teaching images about the professional education teacher, the teaching work of the Federal Institute of Goiás was investigated through questions about: a) the art teachers identities in a school of technicist tradition; b) the teaching training processes in transit and in different places from and beyond school; c) the historical contextualization of the Brazilian professional education matrices; d) the dialogues between the artistic work and the teaching work as actions that feed back. For methodological inventions, the issue discussed was: how does an investigation in art invite me to experiment the art and how this artistic production infiltrates in a research problem? By understanding the art research as a research narrative this study was built at the same time that it told its story - a metalinguistic game that took shape while maintaining a pedagogical dialogue with itself. In this sense, this study arrives in appoitments such as: a) an identity crisis of the federal network teacher; b) the tension movements for the art education in the technical education context; c) the reaffirmation and reconfiguration of the professional education colorization throughout our histories; d) the necessity and the urgency to think about the art teaching practice in the professional education scope; e) the collegiality as an inseparable element for the art teacher formation; f) the artistic work (or experience) approximation with the teaching work as a dialogical action. In this way, we experimented an archaeological exercise to dig our and other stories for the understanding and reconfiguration of our profession contributing to the identity constitution and our difference within the public education. / Este estudo aborda os avessos docentes de quatro professoras de artes visuais no contexto da educação profissional a partir de suas histórias de vida. Para discutir variáveis das imagens docentes sobre o professor da educação profissional, investigou-se a docência no Instituto Federal de Goiás por meio de questões sobre: a) identidades de professoras de arte em uma escola de tradição tecnicista; b) processos formativos docentes em trânsito e em diferentes lugares a partir e além da escola; c) contextualização histórica das matrizes da educação profissional brasileira; d) diálogos entre o trabalho artístico e o trabalho docente como ações que se retroalimentam. Para as invenções metodológicas, voltou-se à pergunta: como uma investigação em arte me convida a experimentar arte e como essa produção artística se infiltra em um problema de pesquisa? Ao compreender a pesquisa em arte como uma narrativa de investigação, este estudo foi se construindo ao mesmo tempo em que contava sua história – um jogo metalinguístico que ganhou forma enquanto manteve um diálogo pedagógico consigo mesmo. Nesse sentido, chega-se a apontamentos como: a) crise de identidade do professor da rede federal; b) movimentos de tensão para o ensino de arte no contexto do ensino técnico; c) reafirmações e reconfigurações da colorização da educação profissional ao longo de nossas histórias; d) necessidade e urgência em pensar a prática docente em arte no âmbito da educação profissional; e) colegialidade como elemento indissociável para a formação do professor de arte; f) aproximação do trabalho (ou experiência) artística com o trabalho docente enquanto ação dialógica. Experimentou-se, dessa forma, exercícios arqueológicos para cavar as nossas e outras histórias para o entendimento e reconfiguração de nossa profissão, contribuindo para a constituição identitária e nossa diferença no interior da educação pública.

Accommodating differences : Power, belonging, and representation onlineHansson, Karin January 2014 (has links)
How can political participatory processes online be understood in the dynamic, conflicted and highly mediated situations of contemporary society? What does democracy mean in a scenario where inequality and difference are the norms, and where people tend to abandon situations in which they and their interests are not recognized? How can we accommodate differences rather than consensus in a scenario where multiple networks of people are the starting point rather than a single community? In this thesis, these questions are explored through an iterative process in two studies that have used or resulted in three prototypes and one art exhibition. The first study is of communication practices in a global interest community, which resulted in two prototypes: Actory, a groupware that takes differences rather than equality as the starting point for a collaborative tool, and The Affect Machine, a social network where differences are used as a relational capital. The second study is of communication practices in a local commonality where the art exhibition Performing the Common created a public space and involved participants. This resulted in Njaru, a collaborative tool with integrated decision support and visualization of representativeness. In summary, these works depart from the notion of the importance of belonging for e-participation, where the individual can be seen as a participant in several performative states, more or less interconnected trans-local publics. Here the individuals’ participation in the local public sphere compete with their participation in other communities, and affect the conditions for local democracy. This thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of these processes, and discusses how differences in democratic participation can be managed with the help of ICT. / Hur kan politiskt deltagande på Internet förstås, i de dynamiska, konfliktfyllda och medierade situationerna i dagens samhälle? Vad innebär demokrati i ett scenario där ojämlikhet och skillnad är normen och där människor tenderar att överge situationer där de själva och deras intressen inte erkänns? Hur kan vi hantera skillnader snarare än konsensus i ett scenario där flera nätverk av människor är utgångspunkten i stället för en enda gemenskap? I denna avhandling har dessa frågor utforskas genom en iterativ process i två studier som har använt eller resulterat i tre prototyper och en konstutställning. Den första studien gäller kommunikationen i en global intressegemenskap vilket resulterade i två prototyper: Actory, som tar olikheter snarare än jämlikhet som utgångspunkt för ett samarbetsverktyg, och The Affect Machine, ett socialt nätverk där olikheter används som ett relationskapital. Den andra studien gäller kommunikationen i en lokal gemenskap där konstutställningen Föreställningar om det gemensamma skapat ett offentligt rum och engagerade deltagare. Resultatet resulterade bland annat i Njaru, ett samarbetsverktyg med integrerat beslutsstöd och visualisering av graden av representativitet i processen. Sammanfattningsvis utgår dessa arbeten från en idé om vikten av tillhörighet för e-deltagande, där individen kan ses som en deltagare i flera performativa stater, mer eller mindre sammankopplade translokala målgrupper. Här konkurrerar individernas deltagande i den lokala offentligheten med deras deltagande i andra samhällen, och påverkar förutsättningarna för lokal demokrati. Denna avhandling bidrar till en djupare förståelse av dessa processer, och diskuterar hur skillnaderna i demokratiskt deltagande kan hanteras med hjälp av IKT. / <p>At the time of the doctoral defense, the following papers were unpublished and had a status as follows: Paper 1: Submitted.

Upscaling, Training, CommoningDžokić, Ana, Neelen, Marc January 2017 (has links)
When on September 15, 2008 the financial conglomerate Lehman Brothers files for bankruptcy – and with that ‘officially’ sparks the international financial crisis – still few would anticipate the invasive effect this crisis would come to have on the professional and personal life of many across the world. Today, it’s implosion remains a mere ‘blip’ in the universe of events that followed. On closer observation, this financial turmoil started out as a ‘mortgage crisis’, largely fuelled by unsustainable or speculative investments in real-estate in cities across the world. In the run-up to the boom-and-bust of 2008, some – among them architects, urban designers, spatial practitioners, artists, activists, but also economists and others – started preparing for what they understood as (the necessity) of a different world to come, beyond the broken neo-liberal dogma. Today, fragments of such a different reality are unfolding in front of us. Modest, but for real. STEALTH.unlimited (practice of Ana Džokić and Marc Neelen) is one of the protagonists in this field, pointing to the responsibilities and capacities of architecture in contemporary societies, and acts between the fields of architecture, art and activism. With “Upscaling, Training, Commoning”, in 2011 they set on an expedition of sorts, to transform their practice. Following a decade of research addressing urgent cultural and urban issues ahead (resulting in publications, exhibitions, spatial interventions), now they use questions, doubts or limitations of such a practice as a lead towards direct long-term engagements with specific spatial process and/or communities. The resulting practice based exploration has been far away from a distant or objective research condition. It is subject to volatile political and economic situations, to conflicting interests or the engagements with(in) local communities encountered in the work. In this, three lines of exploration have been followed; that of the practice assuming new responsibilities, of the economies of engagement and disengagement, and that of the urban commons. The title “Upscaling, Training, Commoning” relates to the awareness that the relevant activities and approaches need to be nurtured, and that the imperfect contexts in which this take place can be seen as ‘training grounds’ to arrive to practices of commoning. Hence, upscaling, training, commoning describes a trajectory (to be) taken. The artistic research (PhD) “Upscaling, Training, Commoning” concludes with a set of six books, and includes comments on the trajectory taken since 2008 by: the writer Dougald Hine, the economist Martijn Jeroen van der Linden, architects Ana Méndez de Andés and Iva Marčetić. The concluding book, set to words by the writer Paul Currion, features a fictional narrative, looking what the future could possibly hold, in which collective action might enable citizens to navigate through difficult times to create a new political economy.

Fotosyntes - ett intra-aktivt soundscapeMaspers, Felix, Zukauskas, Vilius January 2020 (has links)
Utifrån ett posthumanistiskt synsätt, och tillsammans med Karen Barads teori kring agentiell realism och performativitet, vill vi i det här kandidatarbetet bjuda in vår omvärlds fysiska fenomen som medskapare i vår designprocess. Med hjälp av dessa fenomen vill vi utmana och ifrågasätta den antropocentriska designerrollen genom att belysa materialitetens performativa förmåga till kunskapsproduktion och meningsskapande i designprocessen. Vi undersöker hur designprocessen och dess involverade val och handlingar uppstår genom mötet av både mänskliga och icke-mänskliga aktörer; vi beviljas ett inifrånperspektiv som placerar oss mitt i vår världs trassel av intra-aktioner och blir därmed en del i dess tillblivelse. Genom att tillämpa detta förhållningssätt i experiment som utforskar relationen mellan den analoga världen och den digitala, undersöker vi hur dessa möten kan bidra till utformandet av en gestaltande ljudinstallation. / With a posthumanist approach and based on the theory of agential realism and performativity by Karen Barad, we want, in this Bachelor Thesis, to invite the physical phenomena of our surrounding world as co-creators of our design process. With help from these phenomena we would like to challenge and question the anthropocentric designer role by illustrating the performative ability of materiality for producing knowledge and creating meaning in the design process. We explore how the design process and its involved choices and actions emerge through the concurrence of both human and non-human actors; we are granted a from-within perspective that places us in the midst of the entanglement of our world’s intra-actions and therefore become a part of its genesis. By applying this approach to experiments which delve into the relationship between the analog world and the digital, we explore how these concurrences can contribute to the designing of a sound installation.
