32	Attributes of Tool Development : Proceduralism for the Environment Artist Andersson, Karl January 2023 (has links) This paper explores what attributes are important for the creation of environment art tools. The purpose of this is to make sure that when a tool is to be developed, it will be done properly within a given time frame. This is important since the cost of tool development is high in both time and capital spent. Being able to make sure that when those resources are spent, that the resulting tool is of high quality and solving the problem which the development team set out to do. Through interviews, forms and the creation of our own tool I hope to find these attributes and to be able to provide insights into how a studio or team might apply them for their own purposes.

33	Arts in action: a public arena for art: the practical, functional and social implications of art within a cultural context with specific reference to South Africa Ross, Wendy 30 November 2005 (has links) The research is based on the belief that the Earth's survival is reliant on an understanding of the interconnectedness between people and the planet. The premise that creative expression is an inherent need in human beings and a powerful agent for social change is at the core of this study. The arts permeate all aspects of life and can play a positive pro-active role in economic and social upliftment. The study therefore explored a contemporary public context in which artists intervene in society to provide practical and functional social spaces but also, with the ecological crisis of the planet, to create an awareness of the interconnectedness of life. Place-making was of specific concern and one of the aims was to examine ways of re-shaping the appearance and meaning of public spaces. An equally important issue was the role and responsibility of both the artist and the commissioning process in a social context and the relevance of individual expression as modes of addressing social concerns and as a tool of public empowerment within a new democratic South Africa that can have a genuine impact on community well-being and social inclusion. The research therefore exists in between the arts, social sciences and the ecology of place: that is, the understanding of the role of creative intervention within social spaces. The study provides a historical context and development of new trends in public and collaborative community arts, contextualises the notion of public and argues for a repositioning of assessment criteria for the arts within a social public domain and in the interest of the people. It is based on a critical survey of international collaborative arts and its potential as a guide to alternative solutions and implementation within a South African context for creative interventions and regeneration of public spaces and empowerment and capacity building of its citizens. The research discusses the relevance and the position of the arts and craft industry as a means of poverty alleviation, job creation and empowerment in South Africa. Rebuilding community demands both the rejuvenation of social spaces and the restoration of community esteem together with mutual and self-respect. / Art History, Visual Arts and Musicology / D.
