x, 113 p. : ill. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. / In 2000, a non-profit organization, the Confluence Project, based in Vancouver, Washington commissioned Maya Lin to design seven site-specific art installations. Lin chose certain points along the Columbia River to commemorate the bicentennial of the Corps of Discovery, the Lewis and Clark Expedition. I will focus on the third completed site, Bird Blind, located at the Sandy River Delta in Troutdale, Oregon. This artwork is a functional piece for viewing the surrounding wildlife in addition to a textually informative work referencing the diaries of Lewis and Clark and includes the current species status report published by the Sierra Club on the animals observed by Lewis and Clark. This thesis examines the accessibility of the artwork to the wide variety of audiences and its success as a point of dialogue for its specific site. / Committee in Charge: Dr. Kate Mondloch; Dr. Leland Roth; Prof. Kenneth Helphand

Os cortes de Gordon Matta-Clark : um ritual de destruição e reconstrução da arquitetura

Cidade, Daniela Mendes January 2010 (has links)
Os cortes de Gordon Matta-Clark: um ritual de destruição e reconstrução da arquitetura parte de uma indagação sobre um elemento na confluência com as artes visuais: o corte. O conceito de corte desdobra-se nas várias etapas desse trabalho transformando-se em um conceito operatório, que se reflete nas obras do artista norte-americano Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978). Assim se estabelece um diálogo sinestésico entre Arquitetura e Arte no próprio campo da arquitetura. A tese tem por hipótese o corte como princípio revelador da espessura interior para o pensamento da arquitetura e da arte. Os cortes realizados por Matta-Clark se afirmam em diferentes meios: no desenho, no edifício, na fotografia e no trabalho interminável da fotografia. A pesquisa toma sua última manifestação artística denominada Circus-Caribbean Orange (1978) como objeto central para explicar a poética do corte na sua obra – cortes, buracos, escavações. Assim, a sua produção é considerada aqui como um processo que se expande no tempo, permitindo uma abordagem que a encara em permanente estado de questionamento. Do interior dos próprios processos que transparecem nos documentos utilizados e deixados pelo artista se estabelece um modo de leitura e de reflexão que se constitui em um sistema de rede de múltiplas conexões com diferentes áreas do conhecimento. / The cuts of Gordon Matta-Clark: a ritual of destruction and rebuild of architecture searches an answer to the investigation about an element on the confluence with the visual arts: the cut. The concept of cut unfolds in the many phases of this work changing into an operatory concept that rebounds in the works of the North- American artist Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978). Thereby a synesthetic dialogue is established between Architecture and Art in the very field of architecture. The thesis has as hypothesis the cut that is the revealing principle of the interior thickness for the thinking of architecture and art. The cuts made by Matta-Clark stand on different means: on design, on building, on photography and on the never ending work of photography. The research takes its last artistic manifestation designed Circus-Caribbean Orange (1978 ) as the central purpose to explain the poetics of cut on his work – cuts, holes, excavations. Thus, his production is here considered as a process that is expanded in time, permitting an approach that faces it as a permanent state of questioning. From the interior of the processes that appear in the documents used and left by the artist, a way of reading and reflection is established constituting a net system of multiple connections with different areas of knowledge.

A principal finalidade deste trabalho é apresentar a relevância da solução proposta por Gordon Clark para o debate contemporâneo e contínuo sobre o problema do mal. Sendo ele um filósofo da tradição calvinista, o primeiro capítulo deste trabalho visa demostrar não apenas o que é teodiceia, como também o que é calvinismo ou teologia reformada. A fim de situar a resposta de Clark no debate contemporâneo, faz-se necessário uma revisão bibliográfica do tratamento que o problema do mal recebeu na filosofia analítica recente, foco do capítulo dois desta dissertação. O capítulo três apresenta de fato a resposta de Gordon Clark ao problema do mal, enquanto o capítulo quatro lida com as críticas que esta resposta recebeu. A conclusão oferece uma análise da proposta clarkiana, reafirmando a sua relevância, e a necessidade de investigação adicional. / Gordon Clark was a Christian theologian and philosopher of the twentieth century. Through his writings, he addressed the main issues and problems faced by philosophy and religion, especially Christianity. Although a heritor from the Reformed tradition, his proposal diverges considerably from that presented by the famous philosopher of religion Alvin Plantinga. In this context, the present study aims to present the relevant role of Clark's response to the problem of evil. The first chapter introduces some basic concepts dealt with in the dissertation, such as theodicy, Calvinism and reformed theology. The second chapter expounds some main traces of the problem of evil debate in current analytic philosophy of religion. Chapter three presents Clark’s contribution to this debate, and chapter four brings some central criticisms to his proposal. Conclusion gives a balance of the argument and argues that Gordon Clark’s ideas on the problem of evil deserve philosophical attention.

Tem como foco seu caráter de experimentação, buscando ampliar seu significado e seus fundamentos epistemológicos. Os experimentos gestálticos nasceram no contexto original da abordagem. Instituíram a experiência como forma de ampliação da consciência, atendendo a uma mudança paradigmática que pretendia oferecer uma compreensão da vivência humana a partir da visão organísmica e holística. A partir de um diálogo com a fenomenologia de Merleau-Ponty e com a arte de Lygia Clark, o trabalho pretende ampliar a fundamentação fenomenológica da experimentação. O filósofo dedicou sua obra ao tema das relações entre homem e mundo, buscando uma compreensão que partia do mundo da experiência, de um a priori da correlação sujeito-objeto. Situou o corpo como consciência e desenvolveu um viés de pensamento que desembocou em uma ontologia do Ser. Este trabalho desenvolve um recorte das propostas merleau-pontyanas e as coloca em diálogo com as noções de campo organismo-ambiente, ajustamento criativo e agressão. Lygia Clark partiu da vocação da arte moderna de unir arte e vida e desenvolveu um trabalho peculiar fundamentado na transformação do espaço em espaço-tempo, inserindo o público no contexto da obra e propondo a experimentação como forma de acesso à totalidade. Suas obras envolviam as pessoas em um processo vivencial, se colocando como um campo de experiência. Este trabalho discute sua trajetória e aponta para a experiment-ação como ação intercorporal produtora de significados que permite a ressignificação da existência. Articula as noções de campo, corporeidade, forma e significação como dimensões constitutivas da experimentação. Sugere denominar a intervenção terapêutica como proposição, que visa a experiment-ação e tem como tarefa o desajustamento criativo. Este introduz na situação uma diferença que provoca a implicação corporal do cliente com a experiência imediata no contexto psicoterápico. Quando o cliente sente suporte na situação, a experiência tende a se desdobrar em uma ação agressiva e criativa produtora de significados que permitirão a ele ultrapassar o instituído e transgredir. Este trabalho conclui pela compreensão da psicoterapia como um campo de experiência estética que, como tal, não prescinde da corporeidade, é descentradora, produtora de significados e transgressora. _____________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This dissertation discusses the gestalt-therapy psychological work. The focus is its experimental character, seeking to amplify its meanings and its epistemological basis. The gestalt experiments were born in the original context of this theory. Experience was established as a means to amplify conscience, responding to a paradigmatic shift that intended to offer a comprehension of human living experience from organismic and holistic view. Starting from a dialogue between Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology and Lygia Clark’s art work, this dissertation intends to amplify the phenomenological basis of experimentation. The philosopher oriented his work to the theme of relation between man and world, searching for an understanding that began from the world of experience, from an a priori in the subject-object correlation. He located body as conscience and developed a line of thought that resulted in an ontology of Being. This work develops an outline of Merleau-Ponty’s proposals and puts them in dialogue with gestalt notions of field organism-environment, creative adjustment and aggression. Lygia Clark took from modern art’s inclination of uniting art and life and developed a peculiar work based on transformation of space in space-time, inserting the audience into the context of the piece and proposing experimentation as a means to access wholeness. Her work enwrapped people in an experiencing process, putting itself as a field of experience. This work discusses the course of her art and points to a experiment-action as inter corporal action that produces meaning, allowing to re-signify the existence. It articulates notions of field, embodiedness, form and meaning as constructive dimensions of experiment-action. It suggests calling therapeutic intervention as proposition, which aims at the experiment-action and has as its goal the creative des-adjustment. It places a disparity in the situation that instigates the client’s body implication with the direct experience in the psychotherapy context. When the client feels support in the circumstance, experience tends to develop into an aggressive and creative action which produces meanings that will allow him/her to surpass the established notions and transgress. This work concludes considering psychotherapy a field of aesthetic experience that, as such, does not dismiss embodiedness, is “descentering”, producer of meaning and transgressor.

Neste sentido, tais experiências mostram a interação entre a arte e a vida do ser humano em seu dia-a-dia, bem como as relações que seguem entre os objetivos de Lygia Clark e Hélio Oiticica, abordando questões relativas à "exploração do corpo¿, focalizando-o como um instrumento ativador de sua própria percepção, e, posicionando os homens a uma proximidade maior com a Arte a partir das vivências sensoriais. Porém, seus caminhos são divergentes. Lygia Clark parte do interior do sujeito, cria dobras em seus objetos para que ele chegue ao mundo e ao outro à partir de seu inconsciente e de seu Self; Hélio Oiticica já propõe o oposto, chegar ao sujeito à partir do exterior, e ainda, levanta questões sociais e políticas a partir da reunião de objetos e pessoas ligados ao seu meio, determinando uma das vertentes mais arrojadas da arte contemporânea brasileira, sinalizando a principal característica de nossa cultura em que o corpo é suporte e meio da expressão artística brasileira. Este interesse surgiu a partir de conclusões adquiridas nos meios em que acontecem as exposições de Arte contemporânea. Foi então que percebeu-se o quanto as inter-relações e os acontecimentos envolvem o artista ao mundo, e fazem com que ele continue as buscas por novas expressões artísticas, experimentando, transformando, sentindo e ingerindo as diversidades que rodeiam a sociedade, principalmente no meio artístico. Estas relações se dão e são proporcionadas pelos cinco sentidos. A consciência do indivíduo se completa ao interagir com o mundo por meio das manifestação dos cinco sentidos. São eles que nos propiciam esta comunicação com o meio externo. O direcionamento do trabalho é apontar o Artista, e, neste sentido, ele exerce um papel de articulador destas relações quando propõe objetos interativos com seu corpo e com os corpos de outras pessoas. As considerações mencionadas nesta dissertação dizem respeito a este processo de construção interior em direção às pesquisas plásticas, que investigam uma série de materiais e novas interpretações sobre espaço, formas, corpo e mundo. Sendo assim, no corpo desta dissertação estarão descritos o caminhar de Lygia Clark e Hélio Oiticica em direção aos questionamentos sobre o conceito da ¿quebra do plano¿, a ¿queda da moldura¿, bem como as experiências sensoriais exploradas em seus objetos e instalações, fator que possibilita a manifestação de todos os órgãos dos sentidos em nosso corpo. O caminhar em direção a tridimensionalidade em conseqüência da exploração dos sentidos nos trabalhos plásticos mencionados neste trabalho, salientando a forte influência dos trabalhos dos artistas acima referidos. Portanto, não podemos deixar de mencionar a fundamentação teórica pautada nas considerações do pensamento fenomenológico existencial. Finalizando, foi feito um apanhado geral sobre o envolvimento dos cinco sentidos como elementos imprescindíveis para que a sensibilidade não se perca na vida do Ser Humano, e ainda, a relação das investigações sensoriais nos trabalhos de Lygia Clark e Hélio Oiticica. Concluindo, então, esta pesquisa com a certeza de que o Corpo não está distante da Arte em momento algum. Ao Ser Humano é dado a capacidade e sentir, vivenciar e captar o mundo a sua volta, desenvolvendo a vida, o movimento e o instinto de criação e transformação a partir do que lhe é oferecido / Abstract: This research had for purpose to point the importance of the sensorial stimulation in the human body by means of the contact with objects and installations that can provide a sensible experience (to look at, to tatear, to hear, to degustar and to speak). In this direction, such experiences day-by-day show to the interaction between the art and the life of the human being in its, as well as the relations that follow between the objectives of Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica, approaching relative questions to the "exploration of the body", focusing it as an activator instrument of its proper perception, and, locating the men to a bigger proximity with the Art from the sensorial experiences. However, its ways are divergent. Lygia Clark has left of the interior of the citizen, creates folds in its objects so that it arrives at the world and the other to leaving of its unconscious one and of its Self; Oiticica helium already considers the opposite, to arrive at the citizen to leaving of the exterior, and still, raises social matters and politics from the meeting of on objects and people to its half one, determining one of the sources boldest of the art Brazilian contemporary, signaling the main characteristic of our culture where the body is support and way of the Brazilian artistic expression. This interest appeared from conclusions acquired in the ways where the expositions of Art happen contemporary. It was then that it was perceived how much the Inter-relations and the events involve the artist to the world, and make with that it continues the searches for new artistic expressions, trying, transforming, feeling and ingesting the diversities that encircle the society, mainly in the artistic way. These relations if give and proportionate for the five are felt. The conscience of the complete individual if when interacting with the world by means of the manifestation of the five felt. They are they who in them propitiate this communication with the external way. The aiming of the work is to point the Artist, and, in this direction, it it exerts a paper of articulador of these relations when it considers interactive objects with its body and the bodies of other people. The considerações mentioned in this dissertação say respect to this process of interior construction in direction to the plastic research, that investigates a series of materials and new interpretations on space, forms, body and world. Being thus, in the body of this dissertação they will be described walking of Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica in direction to the questionings on the concept of the "plan in addition", the ¿fall of the frame¿, as well as the sensorial experiences explored in its objects and installations, factor that makes possible the manifestation of all the agencies of the directions in our body. Walking in direction the tridimensionalidade in consequence of the exploration of the directions in the plastic works mentioned in this work, pointing out the strong influence of the works of the artists above related. Therefore, we cannot leave to mention the pautada theoretical recital in the considerações of the existencial fenomenológico thought. Finishing, apanhado on the envolvement of the five was made general felt as elements essential so that sensitivity not if it loses in the life of the Human being, and still, the relation of the sensorial inquiries in the works of Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica. Concluding, then, this research with the certainty of that the Body is not distant of the Art at any moment. To the Human being the capacity is given and to feel, to live deeply and to catch the world its return, developing the life, the movement and the instinct of creation and transformation from that it is offered to it / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes

Computational Model of Human Memory

Hempinstall, Susan January 2016 (has links)
Theories of Extended Mind have evolved in waves to reach the present state of disagreement with regard to whether or not external artefacts become part of the mind when used for memory purposes. A four-step approach has been used to address and resolve this disagreement. First, a new component for models of mind which provides a saliency function is provided. This saliency function corresponds to computational elements found necessary in large mainframe computer systems for handling rich data environments. Second, there is introduced a Computational Model of Memory containing the new component which models the operation of human memory. The Computational Model of Memory contains four interoperative elements including the new component, short-term memory, long-term memory, and a cross-reference associator. Third, the work of Marcin Milkowski is drawn upon to obtain a general method of assessing a computational model’s well-formedness, and the method is applied to prove the adequacy of the Computational Model of Memory. According to Milkowski’s schema, the model satisfies most criteria for a well-formed computational model, including in particular a separation between conceptual elements of the model, and constitutive elements of the model, which while explicitly related, are required to subsist at separate logical conceptual levels. Fourth, the Computational Model of Memory is applied to outstanding arguments in Extended Mind to clarify and resolve several of these arguments. The model serves to highlight where the nature of the disagreement depends upon a category error of reference, and further resolves a key disagreement by demonstrating that the mind may treat external artefacts as an alternative realizable constitutive element of short-term and long-term memory.

Operando deslocamentos nas relações entre artista, obra e espectador, e tendo como ritmo propulsor a linha orgânica, o trabalho de Clark é povoado de metáforas, através das quais busca provocar no participante a reativação de seu potencial criador, substituindo, progressivamente, o produto artístico pelo próprio ato de criar / Abstract: Considering the creative process as the central reason of the trajectory of Lygia Clark, this dissertation departs ftom a clipping ofher work - the sequence Casulos-Bichos Caminhando - and, through a relation ofher works ofthis period to others ofthe artist's phases, points and argues the main issues that follow its creative passage during a period of more than thirty years, since the paintings of the beginning of the 1950's until Objetos relacionais, in the end ofthe1980's. Operating displacements in the relation between artist, workmanship and spectator, and having as a propeller rhythm the linha orgânica, Clark' s work is plenty of metaphors through which it searches to provoke in the participant subject the reactivation of his creative potential, substituting, gradually, the artistic product for the proper act to create / Mestrado / Artes / Mestre em Artes

Aesthetic Response to the Fires at Notre Dame: A Case for Rhetorical Aesthetics Within Conventional Rhetorical Analysis

Clifford, Amanda 29 March 2022 (has links)
The field of rhetorical aesthetics has a long and rich history. Despite that history, however, aesthetic artifacts have yet to be considered with the same weight that conventional rhetorical artifacts are. My project is to consider the rhetorical effectiveness of aesthetic artifacts, making a case for more inclusion of these types of artifacts in rhetorical theory. I will demonstrate the effectiveness of the aesthetic by performing a comparative analysis of both an aesthetic and conventional reaction to the 2019 fires at Notre Dame de Paris. By considering the constitutive power of the aesthetic, I will argue that the depth of analysis that the aesthetic allows makes it, in some cases, a more effective space for rhetorical analysis than conventional artifacts.

Examination of Deformation in Crystalline Rock From Strike-Slip Faults in Two Locations, Southern California

Forand, David H. 01 May 2010 (has links)
Damage zones adjacent to or associated with faults are important to the geologic community because of their implications to hazards and their ability to preserve evidence for, and show history of, slip, fluid flow, and deformation associated with large strike-slip faults. We examine two fault zones in southern California where fault zone damage is expressed. We revisit the drilled crystalline core from the Cajon Pass California drill hole, 4 km northeast of the San Andreas fault (SAF), and 1 km north of the Cleghorn fault, to perform a systematic structural analysis of deformation and alteration associated with strike-slip faulting at the site. The core preserved 19 fault zones, 11 of which were not previously identified. The most significant fault is a fully intact steep-dipping fault zone at 3,402 m depth with potassium feldspar and epidote alteration. This fault correlates well with the nearby left-lateral Cleghorn fault. The extent of deformation varies within the core, and is controlled by the size of the fault zones intersected by the core. The extent of deformation varies and is controlled by the size of the faults the core intersected. We also examined the nature of right separation across the Clark fault damage zone along the Santa Rosa segment using a marker assemblage of biotite, hornblende-bearing tonalite - marble - bearing metasedimentary rocks - migmatite located in Coyote Mountain and the southeast Santa Rosa Mountains. Separation measured from this study is 16.8 km + 3.67 km / -6.03 km. Our measurement uses the updated location of the Clark fault in Clark Lake Valley and matches a distinctive lithologic contact across the fault instead of matching the diffuse western boundary of the Eastern Peninsular mylonite zone as previously used. We calculate the errors associated with projecting the contacts across Quaternary cover to the trace of the Clark fault, and consider a range of projections. Additional strain may have been accommodated in folds and small faults within the damage zone of the San Jacinto fault zone. Two large map-scale folds deform the marker assemblage near the San Jacinto fault zone and we tested whether Cretaceous ductile deformation or brittle late Quaternary right slip produced the folds.
