Através da pesquisa de campo realizada nas festas de Corpus Christi da cidade de Matão/SP nos anos 2011 e 2012, são abordados os temas festa, imagem, cultura e sagrado. Especificamente focada na confecção dos tapetes, são observados e analisados seus processos e representações em aspectos individuais e coletivos. São inúmeros seus significados e interpretações se o percebemos em sua forma viva de seu lastro histórico até os dias atuais. Saliento a importância do registro desta manifestação cultural, pois através dele do estudo de suas imagens e significações buscamos um maior entendimento de como este evento acontece e de como é percebida e interiorizada pelo seu público / Through field research feasts of Corpus Christi city Matão / SP in the years 2011 and 2012 are discussed themes 'party', 'image', 'culture' and 'sacred'. Specifically in the manufacture of carpets, are observed and analyzed their processes and representations in individual and collective aspects. Countless their meanings and interpretations are realized in the form of its ballast living history to the present day. I note the importance of this cultural event registration, for through it - the study of images and their meanings - seek a greater understanding of how this event happens and how it is perceived and internalized by its audience

Passei a considerar a cidade como um campo possível para realizações e a mapeá-la, identificando as ruínas do início do século como locais para intervenções. Buscando gerar uma relação com as marcas do tempo e do descaso físico e social, os objetos infláveis, passageiros e frágeis, foram instalados portanto em locais históricos e deteriorados. Amorfas e prontas a assumir novas formas, as Bolhas se apresentaram às geografias dos diferentes espaços como elementos vivos. Propondo um olhar sobre o fim do objeto sólido, estável e durável, elas tendiam a se potencializar justamente pela impermanência. / Abstract: This master's thesis brings together the research, reflection and record of Urban Bubbles Project conducted between 2006 and 2007.The series "Bolhas Urbanas" (Urban Bubbles) emerged from my necessity to move outside the indoor spaces conventionally destined for art. I began to look at the city as a possible field upon which I could act, and to chart turn-of-the-century ruins as potential places for my interventions. In an attempt to establish a relationship with marks of time and of physical and social neglect, I installed ephemeral and fragile inflatable objects in decayed historical sites. Therefore, ready as they were to take on new shapes, the amorphous Bubbles presented themselves to the geography of different sites as live organisms. While proposing an inquiry on the end of the solid, stable and durable object, these Bubbles tended to become potent precisely on account of their impermanence. / Mestrado / Artes Plásticas / Mestre em Artes

In recent years, there has been extended research on the Big Five and social media, especially Facebook. Snapchat, a fast-growing photo-sharing app, has however not been thoroughly researched yet. This paper aimed at closing this research gap and at investigating the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and Snapchat users and nonusers. Additionally, it researched the potential of the app to advertise new music published by music labels. The sample consisted of 124 self-selected Snapchat users and non-users (94 Snapchat users and 30 Snapchat non-users), between the ages of 18 and 55. Approximately 53% of the participants were from Sweden, 24% from Germany and the rest from other countries. Participants were asked to complete an online questionnaire comprising the Big Five Inventory and demographic questions. Snapchat users also completed a Snapchat usage questionnaire. Additionally, a short interview about Snapchat was held with a representative of a music label. The results showed that there are only minor differences between Snapchat users and non-users regarding the Big Five personality traits. However, male Snapchat users tend to be more open to new experiences. The usage of specific Snapchat features could be connected to more extraverted, neurotic and conscientious individuals. The overall interest for musicrelated content on Snapchat was rather low. Therefore, Snapchat can be used as a complementary marketing action to raise awareness, but cannot stand alone. / Under de senaste åren har det gjorts utökad forskning om Big Five och sociala medier, särskilt Facebook. Snapchat, en snabb växande bilddelning app, har dock inte undersökts noggrant. Detta examensarbete syftade till att undersöka det outforskade området kring förhållandet mellan Big Five personlighetsdrag och Snapchat-användare och icke- användare. Dessutom undersökte den möjligheten för skivbolag att annonsera ny musik i appen. Urvalet bestod av 124 självvalda Snapchat-användare och icke-användare (94 Snapchat-användare och 30 Snapchat-icke-användare), mellan 18 och 55 år. Ungefär 53% av deltagarna var från Sverige, 24% från Tyskland och resten från andra länder. Deltagarna blev ombedda att fylla i ett online frågeformulär som omfattade Big Five Inventory och demografiska frågor. Snapchat-användare slutförde också ett Snapchat-användningsformulär. Dessutom hölls en kort intervju om Snapchat med en representant från ett skivbolag. Resultaten visade att det endast finns mindre skillnader mellan Snapchatanvändare och icke-användare angående Big Five-personlighetsdragen. Manliga Snapchat-användare tenderar att vara mer öppna för nya upplevelser. Användningen av specifika Snapchat-funktioner kan kopplas till mer extravert, neurotiska och samvetsgranna individer. Det övergripande intresset för musikrelaterat innehåll på Snapchat var ganska lågt. Därför kan Snapchat användas som en kompletterande marknadsföringsåtgärd för att öka medvetenheten, men inte som enda marknadsföringsåtgärd.

Ephemerality is one of the most essential characteristics of fashion, since fashion by definition is existing in the present, in the fleeing moment. Also, fashion is closely related to art and there is currently no clear theoretical distinction made regarding the boundary between these two domains. In this essay I have explored the concept of transiency and the relationship between fashion and art in relation to fashion in general and to the collection Haute Papier, made by the fashion designer Bea Szenfeld, in specific. The Haute Papier collection is constructed almost entirely out of simple white paper sheets and of this reason it can be regarded as ephemeral. The material also positions the garments in a void between fashion and art, simultaneously existing in both domains and in none of them. I have conducted an object analysis of three of the garments from Haute Papier with the aim of discerning aspects of ephemerality, aspects that criticizes the age in which we live and how the collection positions itself in regard to fashion and art. The theories that I have applied to my material emanates from different aspects of transiency and the fashion and art relationship and includes, among others, theories from Walter Benjamin and Barbara Vinken and extractions from the anthology Fashion and Art by Adam Geczy and Vicki Karaminas. In the analysis it became visible that transiency can be discerned in many varying aspects of the collection, for example in the material and in the time in which fashion operates. What also became visible was that the definition of the object, as art or as fashion, above all depends on which system it is part of, but that it also can change this definition if the context changes.

For that matter, some of the changes that marked the turn of the 19th century with the Indus- trial Revolution are contextualized, and so are the changes on lifesty- les and on the production of subjectivities. Ephemerality emerges as a striking concept in the 20th century, from the consolidation of aspects such as acceleration and displacement. From this perspective, Hussein Chalayan’s Afterwords fashion collection and the architectural work Blur Building proposed by the Diller Scofidio studio are presented. Fi- nally, from Design for Difference, developed by Angela Luna, fashion designer, derives a brief discussion on wearables as a production of existence territories, contributing to broaden the dialogues between the fields of Fashion Design and Architecture. / O presente trabalho expõe uma investigação acerca de modificações na percepção de tempo e de espaço na sociedade contemporânea, possíveis de serem identificados nos campos do Design de Moda e da Arquitetura. Para tanto, são contextualizadas algumas mudanças que marcaram a virada do século XIX com a Revolução Industrial e que modificaram os modos de vida e a produção de subjetividades. A efemeridade emerge como conceito marcante no século XX, a partir da consolidação de aspectos como a aceleração e o deslocamento. Com base nesta perspectiva, são apresentadas a coleção de moda Afterwords, criada por Hussein Chalayan e a obra arquitetônica Blur Building, proposta pelo estúdio Diller Scofidio. Por fim, do trabalho Design for Difference, desenvolvido pela designer de moda Angela Luna, deriva-se uma breve discussão dos vestíveis como produção de territórios de existência, colaborando para a ampliação dos diálogos entre os campos do Design de Moda e da Arquitetura.

This PhD responds to a two fold problem with the philosophy of design and the practice of design. The philosophical problem is stated as the discrepancy between a dominant philosophical framework that orders the world according to eternal essences and the actual conditions of the world in which we exist: the conditions of becoming and of flux. Commencing with a critique of the western metaphysical tradition of statics this research project proposes that we need to find a way of describing an evolutionary model of practice, and by so doing to provide a revitalised narration of process. Consequently, the PhD explores the meanings of process through a critical examination of an ensemble of projects created by the author. Within this framework, a number of questions are posed in order to explore the proposition of a process practice. These questions are: What is process? How does one think process? Indeed, how do we get to grasp change? What are the consequences of process thinking on the practices of design, their fields of operation, and their productions? And, how can the thematising of process contribute to the design of the constructed environment, as well as reconfigure the practices of design? This thematising of process is argued to involve a necessary address to the constitutive and interrelated characteristics of process: space/time, movement, change, form and matter. Such an address is also seen to problematise the status of the object, the paradigms of representation, the modes of creation, the economies of exchange, and the structures of community, and to offer a modality of practice which would re-imagine the forms of social exchange to offer an ethical alternative to the tyranny of supply and demand, and thereby reconfigure the potential for dwelling. Making an overview of the discourses and practices engaging with theories of becoming, this thesis argues that almost all of these re-inscribe statics and that consequently the practice of design seems to drag behind our understanding of the world. Through a meditation on dis/appearance, in which the dynamics of being and becoming and the restless ambiguity of the gap are examined, the work establishes a process vocabulary, and makes clear through a material practice, the domains of process thinking, its inclinations, and the kinds of operations and procedures that flourish there. Foregrounding the fertile character of process practice, the PhD then proceeds to introduce notions of the movement-form, the duration-form, the transformational-form, the geometry of encounter, and to argue for physical form as an in-movement poise. Advocating new modes of approach and of attentiveness, and demonstrating new generative methods, this PhD argues that process thinking is not simply an operational stance, but an ethical position that identifies a field of care, and that consequently the design practices be expanded by taking seriously the relationship between process thinking and place making. Thus, this thesis concludes by advocating a mode of place making which, rather than reproduce planned environments as systems of control, configures place as the discursive contested place of encounter and exchange.
