Interno às urnas e às cerimônias funerárias desta cultura, percebi o percurso de meu corpo nas artes e na cidade e elaborei poeticamente as minhas mortes. Poética de um corpo que se extingue e recria, ciclicamente, entre o contemporâneo e o pré-colonial, entre o subjetivo e o relacional. Elaborei e construí minha produção cerâmica como recipiente lacrado de conteúdo omitido, um objeto artístico de conceito formulado, inútil à função utilitária e amplo de percepção poética. A produção artística e a palavra percorreram os processos criativos e teóricos com olhares distintos. Ambas tornaram-se um todo indissociável ao suprirem uma a ausência da outra; a produção buscou o conceito e a história, a teoria desejou-se criação, representação poética contextualizada e não a mediação do objeto ausente / Abstract: My Deaths, composes a series of locked ceramic urns, which will be presented together with the defense for my Doctoral Thesis in Arts and it consists of the artistic consequences of the path taken by my poetic body after having printed my physical body in the vazocorposa models elaborated and constructed for my masters degree in 2003. In this path, I found death, fountain of renovation and valorization of artistic and subjective values, symbolic synthesis of the body in the ceramic productions from pre-colonial cultures of the Amazonian basin. Internal to the urns and to the funeral ceremonies of this culture, perceiving the path my body took in the arts and in the city I elaborated my poetic deaths. The poetics of a body that extinguishes and recreates itself, clinically, between the contemporary and the pre-colonial, between the subjective and the relative. I elaborated and constructed my ceramic production as locked recipients with omitted contents, artistic objects of a formulated concept, useless to its utility function and with an ample poetic perception. The artistic output and the word traverse the creative and theoretical processes with distinctive outlooks. both became not dissociable while compensating for the other¿s absence; the production sought the concept and the history, the theory wished itself the creation, poetic representation put into context and not the mediation of an absent object / Doutorado / Doutor em Artes

O foco está no processo de criação, o qual poderá contribuir para futuros trabalhos que envolvam a criação de figurinos, seja para o teatro, a dança, performance ou qualquer forma de expressão que pressuponha uma ação cênica. Partindo da relação existente entre vestimenta-figurino e corpoator/performer, tendo como fundamentação a investigação da artista plástica Lygia Clark, onde o espectador interage com os objetos e esta intervenção se torna a obra e, a filosofia mestiça de Michel Serres, que enuncia que o corpo é um campo de forças onde fica impresso a aprendizagem, este trabalho pretende enquanto processo, imprimir uma concepção holística de criação em que não exista separação entre a parte e o todo, ou entre figurino-ator-personagem. O que se configura no terceiro corpo. Esta pesquisa visa a convergência entre as Artes Cênicas e as Artes Plásticas através da vestimenta-figurino, território expressivo a ser estudado. A vestimenta-figurino vai sendo esculpida através das ações do corpo: sujeito na criação e objeto do criador. As vestimentas serão expostas em uma instalação onde a perfomer interferirá com as mesmas. Trata-se aqui de reconstituir e totalizar o corpo através da ação artística, de contaminar de arte o espaço social. Um exercício para desenvolver um sentido expressivo, um despertar da percepção da vitalidade criadora / Abstract: Creating patterns/garment for performance, way of expression chosen for the proposition of this work, was the subsidy for this master's thesis, which reports all the process of creation. The focus is on the creation process, which will make contribution to future researches that involve creation of patterns, either for the theater, the dance, performance or any other way of expression that presuppose some scene action. Starting from the relationship between garment-patterns and bodyactor/ performer, and being based firstly upon the researches of the plastic artist Lygia Clark, in which the spectator interacts with the objects and this intervention turns into the work of art, and secondly upon Michel Serres's "blended" philosophy, which suggests that the body is a field of strengths where learning is inculcated, this work, as a process, intends to establish a holistic conception of creation in which there is no separation between the part and the whole, or between patterns-actor-character, which is configured in the "third instructed". This research aims to the convergence between Scene Arts and Plastic Arts through the garment-patterns, which is the expressive field to be studied. The garmentpatterns is sculpted through body actions: subject in the creation and object in the creator. The garments will be exhibited in an art installation where the performer will interfere with them. It is a matter of recomposing and expressing the body as a whole through artistic action, or of infecting the social space with art. An exercise to develop expressive sense, an awakening of the creative vitality / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes

Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo a elaboração do conceito, \"movimento-imagem-ideia\", desenvolvido no percurso de uma prática de improvisação. Iniciada no teatro, por meio dos aprendizados do jogo teatral, do jogo das máscaras, como a commedia dell\'arte e o palhaço, encontra a dança e as abordagens somáticas, ampliando-se e oferecendo estrutura à autonomia do intérprete improvisacional. As pesquisas cênicas que constituíram caminho e estabelecimento dessa conceituação, analisadas neste trabalho, têm por foco a improvisação e a máscara de A Troupe de Atmosfera Nômade; as improvisações em tempo real, diante do público, da Cia. Nova Dança 4; e a estrutura pré-fixada na dança, em Ladies, da inocência à crueldade, com possibilidades de rupturas improvisacionais. / This dissertation investigates the elaboration of a concept, \"movementimage- idea\", developed during an improvisation practice. When this improvisation - which started in the theatre with the use of theatre games, mask games, such as commedia dell\'arte and clowns - meets dance and somatic approaches, it is amplified, now offering structure to the autonomy of the improvisational actor. Previous research on performing arts that have paved a path to the establishment of the concept analyzed here focus on A Troupe de Atmosfera Nômade\'s use of improvisation and masks; Cia Nova Dança 4\'s real time improvisation in front of an audience; and the structure prefixed on dancing, in Ladies, from innocence to cruelty, with possible improvisational ruptures.

No primeiro capítulo, discutimos a busca de cada intérprete pelo desenvolvimento da sua "voz" ou de sua individualidade como improvisador, por elementos como: seu vocabulário melódico de improvisação, a busca pela sua sonoridade, o desenvolvimento de sua técnica. Fazemos um estudo de caso de dois improvisos do guitarrista americano Jonathan Kreisberg (nascido em 1972-, músico bem atuante e com sólida carreira no cenário de Jazz internacional) nos standards My Favorite Things e Caravan. A análise mostra procedimentos e vocabulário melódico recorrentes nos dois improvisos, que possivelmente evidenciam o estilo de improvisação do músico. No segundo capítulo, discutimos a narratividade de improvisação musical através de alguns conceitos. Observamos como a improvisação pode ocorrer com elementos mais ou menos premeditados (solos ou improvisos). Exploramos a metáfora de improvisar como "contar uma história" - sob o ponto de vista da semântica e sintaxe musical, com base em autores como John Sloboda (2008) e Jean-Jaques Nattiez (2002). Estudamos a criação do arco narrativo típico em improvisação - a variação de densidade/intensidade da improvisação, refletindo com Ingrid Monson (1996) e Turi Collura (2008) - e aplicamos estes conceitos aos dois improvisos de Jonathan Kreisberg já estudados. A seguir, revisamos vários processos de manipulação do vocabulário melódico em improvisação (como paráfrase, desenvolvimento de motivos, livre tematismo). Refletimos sobre o papel do tematismo na criação de coerência interna para improvisação - e pensamos como cada processo de manipulação melódica estudado se comporta em relação à dicotomia inventividade (ou criatividade) versus coerência. No terceiro capítulo, consideramos o papel da interação entre os músicos na construção da narrativa musical, em que os impulsos comunicativos musicais e "extramusicais" desempenham um importante papel nas improvisações. Mostramos processos de interação típicos de música popular improvisada. Fazemos um segundo estudo de caso e analisamos três performances do choro Lamentos pelo Trio Corrente, um grupo de Música Instrumental Brasileira que vem ganhando destaque e reconhecimento nos últimos anos - foram premiados com o "melhor álbum instrumental" no Grammy Latino de 2014. O grupo é composto por Fábio Torres (piano), Paulo Pauleli (baixo) e Edu Ribeiro (bateria). Pela análise das performances do Trio (nos anos 2003, 2012 e 2012) e comparações com outros intérpretes, percebe-se que a narrativa musical pelo grupo preza por uma dinâmica de espontaneidade e de interação musical intensa, mas seguindo parâmetros e procedimentos recorrentes. Desta forma, ao longo do trabalho refletimos sobre processos de improvisação e narratividade musical nos trabalhos de grupos musicais e intérpretes como Jonathan Kreisberg, Jacob do Bandolim, Izaías Bueno, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Paul Motian Trio, Trio Corrente e outros. Propõe-se pensar que a construção das narrativas musicais improvisadas ocorrem por um processo que envolve a expressão de individualidade de cada músico e as interações entre eles - percebendo o exercício de papéis de solista e acompanhador geralmente constatados na dinâmica de interpretação coletiva. / The present work discusses how the narrativization of improvisations in improvised popular music happen - analyzing examples of Jazz and Brazilian Instrumental Music. In the first chapter, we discuss the search of each interpreter for the development of his "voice" or his individuality as improviser, in elements such as: his melodic improvisation vocabulary, the search for his sonority, the development of his technique. We do a case study of two improvisations by American guitarist Jonathan Kreisberg (born in 1972-, a very active musician with a solid career in the international Jazz scene) in the standards My Favorite Things and Caravan. The analysis shows procedures and melodic vocabulary recurrent in the two improvisations, that possibly evidences the musician's improvisation style. In the second chapter, we discuss the narrativity of musical improvisation through some concepts. We observe how improvisation can occur with more or less premeditated elements (solos or improvisations). We explore the metaphor of improvising as "telling a story" - from the standpoint of semantics and musical syntax, based on authors such as John Sloboda (2008) and Jean-Jaques Nattiez (2002). We studied the creation of the typical narrative arc in improvisation - the density / intensity variation of improvisation, reflecting with Ingrid Monson (1996) and Turi Collura (2008) - and apply these concepts in the two Jonathan Kreisberg improvisations already studied. Next, we review several processes of manipulation of the melodic vocabulary in improvisation (such as paraphrase, motif development and Livre Tematismo). We reflect on the role of thematicism in creating internal coherence for improvisation - and we discuss how each process of melodic manipulation studied behaves in relation to the dichotomy of inventiveness (or creativity) versus coherence. In the third chapter, we consider the role of the interaction between the musicians in the construction of the musical narrative, in which the musical and "extramusical" communicative impulses play an important role in the improvisations. We show typical interaction processes of improvised popular music. We make a second case study and analyze three performances of the "choro" Lamentos by Trio Corrente, a group of Brazilian Instrumental Music that has been gaining prominence and recognition in recent years - they were awarded the "best instrumental album" at the Latin Grammy of 2014. The group is composed by Fábio Torres (piano), Paulo Pauleli (bass) and Edu Ribeiro (drums). By analyzing the performances of the Trio (in the years 2003, 2012 and 2012) and comparisons with other performers, one can notice that the musical narrative by the group values a dynamic of spontaneity and intense musical interaction, but following recurrent parameters and procedures. In this way, throughout the work we reflect on processes of improvisation and musical narrativity by studies on the works of musical groups and performers such as Jonathan Kreisberg, Jacob do Bandolim, Izaias Bueno, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Paul Motian Trio, Trio Corrente and others. It is proposed to think that the construction of improvised musical narratives occurs through a process that involves the expression of individuality of each musician and the interactions between them - perceiving the exercise of soloist and accompanist roles usually found in the dynamics of collective interpretation.

Sediada na Fundação Parque Zoológico de São Paulo (FPZSP), essa mostra é direcionada para a manutenção e exposição da população de serpentes pertencente à Fundação. Contudo, o seu objetivo não se limita a apresentar ao público espécimes nativos e exóticos em um cenário "bonito" e, sim, construir um ambiente propício ao bem-estar dos animais, bem como a vivências que resultem na educação ambiental e no vínculo positivo do visitante com as serpentes. Dentro desse projeto expositivo abrangente, encontra-se o objeto de estudo: o processo de criação coletivo e multidisciplinar de ambientações realistas, fundadas na representação de um habitat selvagem, e destinadas à manutenção e exposição de um ser vivo. E considerando que a pesquisa está imersa em um contexto de interface entre áreas, abarcando a criação em artes visuais, bem como o universo dos zoológicos, optou-se por abordar e discutir esse mesmo objeto, a partir de um elemento que sempre se manteve como campo propício de englobar a criação, identificado como mediador de ambos os universos e constantes em todo o processo: a paisagem / Abstract: The research presented here seeks to understand, under the point of view of the Visual Arts, the creative process of exhibition venues belonging to the exhibition "O Caminho das Serpentes". Headquartered in the Zoological Park of São Paulo, this show is directed to the maintenance and exposure of the population of snakes belonging to the Foundation. However, its goal is not limited to present to the public native and exotic specimens in a "beautiful "scenario, and yes, build an environment favorable to the welfare of animals, as well as the experiences that result in environmental education and the positive bond of the visitor with snakes. Within this extensive exhibition project, is object of study: the processes of creating collectives and multidisciplinary realistic ambientations, based on the representation of a wildlife habitat and designed to the maintain and exposure of a living being. And considering that research is embedded in a context of interface between areas, encompassing the creation in visual arts as well as the world of zoos, it was decided to address and discuss the same subject, from an element that always kept as favorable field to encompass creation, identified as a mediator of both universes and constant throughout all process: the landscape / Mestrado / Artes Visuais / Mestra em Artes Visuais

Paralelamente, com o desenvolvimento tecnológico da indústria fonográfica, a música passou a ser gravada e comercializada. A comercialização da música gravada, por sua vez, também foi beneficiada por um interesse de explorar-se uma conexão visual com o conteúdo da gravação. Em 1940, este interesse foi diretamente manifestado pelo designer gráfico norte-americano Alex Steinweiss, quando começou a projetar capas de álbuns de discos de 78rpm para a gravadora Columbia Records. Steinweiss não foi o primeiro artista comercial ou designer gráfico a projetar uma capa ilustrada para álbuns de discos de 78rpm mas, ao projetar capas, foi pioneiro na intenção de exercer uma correspondência semântica com o conteúdo musical dos discos. Esta tese tem como grande objetivo o resgate das principais condições históricas e culturais que ajudaram a caracterizar o trabalho de Steinweiss e que possibilitaram fosse ele incorporado com sucesso pela indústria fonográfica. Por meio do levantamento de tais condições e também do próprio método de projeto de Steinweiss, observou-se que seu sucesso proporcionou o estabelecimento de um paradigma, na medida em que as soluções propostas por ele foram, posteriormente, tomadas como modelo e substituíram as regras vigentes para o projeto gráfico das capas dos álbuns de discos / Abstract: By the end of the nineteenth century, the dialog between visual arts and music was a great influence on the applied arts, or commercial arts, in its own task of promoting the music spectacle. Meanwhile, with the technological development of the music industry, music started to be recorded and commercialized. The recorded music business, moved by its own interests, also explored a visual connection with the recorded musical content of their product. In 1940, the early work of the American graphic designer Alex Steinweiss was a consequence of this interest, as he started to design album covers for 78rpm records while working at Columbia Records. Steinweiss was not the first commercial artist or graphic designer to design illustrated album covers for 78rpm records, but he was the first one who expected to achieve semantic correspondence with the musical content of the record. The main goal of this thesis is to retrieve key historical and cultural conditions that influenced Steinweiss' work and allowed him to succeed as a graphic designer inside the recorded music business. By doing so, and by setting up aspects of Steinweiss' design methods, we have come to the conclusion that his success characterized a paradigm. The solutions he offered were taken as models and replaced the rules that determined how an album cover should be designed / Doutorado / Artes Visuais / Doutor em Artes

Le taux d’abandon de la profession enseignante est élevé dans les cinq premières années d’exercice. Compte tenu des conditions dans lesquelles sont placés les enseignantes et les enseignants novices, on ne doit pas s’en surprendre. En effet, on leur confie souvent les classes les plus difficiles à gérer dès leur entrée dans la profession en raison du mode d’attribution des tâches qui privilégie l’ancienneté. On intègre de plus en plus d’élèves en difficulté dans les classes régulières compte tenu des restrictions budgétaires récurrentes, ce qui entraîne la nécessité de recourir à une gestion de classe préventive et à la différenciation pédagogique. Le réforme de l’éducation, l’intégration du numérique dans les classes et les nouveaux modes de fonctionnement ont considérablement modifié le travail enseignant en privilégiant les approches pédagogiques interactives. Dans ce contexte, il n’est pas surprenant qu’une des causes importantes de l’abandon de la profession soit liée aux difficultés de gestion de classe, et ce, malgré quatre ans de formation initiale, incluant au moins 700 heures de stage. Par ailleurs, soulignons que les enseignantes et les enseignants expérimentés développent une capacité à trouver des réponses appropriées dans l’urgence, voire à improviser dans le feu de l’action devant une grande variété de situations en classe, capacité moins présente chez les novices. Holborn (2003), à partir des travaux de Schön (1983) sur le processus de réflexion-en-action, établit un lien très étroit entre l’improvisation et l’enseignement de même que Yinger (1987), Tochon (1993b), Sawyer (2004) et Gagnon (2010). Mackin et Kaplan deVries (1992), Lobman (2005) et Pelletier et Jutras (2008). Ils mettent en valeur l’apport d’un entraînement ou d’une formation en improvisation sur les habiletés de gestion de classe. Cependant, aucune étude n’a porté sur les exercices d’improvisation en tant qu’objet pédagogique ni sur les relations étroites du savoir-faire de l’improvisation avec la compétence en gestion de classe. Jusqu’à maintenant, les exercices d’improvisation qu’on retrouve dans les quelques études empiriques recensées ont été utilisés comme tels, c’est-à-dire sans adaptation ni modification à leur forme qui s’adresse à la formation de comédiens ou d’improvisateurs. Il était alors intéressant de se pencher sur le développement d’exercices d’improvisation destinés à la formation à l’enseignement à partir des habiletés de gestion de classe déjà documentées. Si dans les études empiriques, l’utilisation des exercices d’improvisation théâtrale a permis de mettre en évidence le développement de certaines habiletés liées à la gestion de classe, des exercices développés spécifiquement pour cette compétence pourraient avoir un potentiel de développement plus avancé de ces mêmes habiletés. En ce sens, nous avons poursuivi deux objectifs de recherche : 1) mettre au point des exercices d’improvisation pour développer la compétence en gestion de classe dans la phase de contrôle durant l’action de stagiaires en enseignement secondaire et 2) produire un scénario pédagogique de formation dans lequel inscrire les exercices d’improvisation. Pour atteindre ces objectifs, nous avons mis en œuvre une recherche développement selon le modèle de Harvey et Loiselle (2009). Ce modèle propose cinq phases. La première phase se nomme « Origine de la recherche » et elle correspond à la problématique de notre recherche. La deuxième phase, celle du « Référentiel » correspond au cadre de référence, c’est-à-dire au corpus de connaissances essentiel pour situer le développement de l’objet pédagogique. La troisième phase, la « Méthodologie », situe la perspective épistémologique du chercheur et décrit la logistique de mise en œuvre de la recherche, ainsi que les outils de collecte et d’analyse de données. La quatrième phase, « Les résultats de l’opérationnalisation du premier objectif de la recherche développement » est ce qui caractérise le modèle de recherche développement de Harvey et Loiselle (2009). Elle est le lieu d’un processus itératif de conception, de réalisation, de mises à l’essai et de validation de l’objet pédagogique dans un mouvement itératif. Enfin, la phase des « Résultats » rend compte de la synthèse des analyses des données sous la forme du produit développé, des caractéristiques du produit réalisé, des principes émergeant de la démarche et de la confrontation des principes dégagés au corpus de connaissances. Les données ont été recueillies à l’aide de plusieurs moyens : journal de bord du chercheur, mises à l’essai d’exercices d’improvisation réalisées avec une spécialiste en improvisation et des stagiaires en enseignement secondaire, activités réflexives qui suivaient immédiatement les exercices d’improvisation et questionnaire pré et post-intervention. Les analyses itératives des données tout au long de la recherche ont permis de faire évoluer les exercices et le scénario pédagogique jusqu’à leur forme validée présentée dans la thèse. Les résultats de la recherche montrent l’atteinte des objectifs poursuivis. D’abord, l’analyse descriptive des réponses des stagiaires et de leurs enseignants associés au questionnaire pré et post-intervention permet de relever des indications du potentiel de développement des habiletés de contrôle durant l’action des exercices d’improvisation, en particulier pour l’habileté d’hyperperception. Ensuite, le scénario pédagogique de formation ainsi que les exercices qui en font partie forment le cœur des résultats de cette recherche développement. Le scénario pédagogique est construit de façon à être intégré dans les stages en enseignement en tant qu’activité de formation complémentaire ou autonome. L’analyse des mises à l’essai, des activités réflexives et des notes du chercheur montre que les exercices d’improvisation doivent se situer dans un cadre de formation bien défini. Le cadre de formation que nous proposons est un scénario pédagogique structuré de façon à assurer certaines conditions optimales de réalisation. Le scénario tient compte de considérations logistiques liées à l’environnement de formation et du nécessaire développement des compétences des personnes formatrices. Le scénario tient également compte de la progression des apprentissages en assurant un ordonnancement et des pistes d’intervention pour les trois exercices. De plus, il intègre une activité réflexive comme prolongement naturel aux exercices pour soutenir l’ancrage du développement des stagiaires. Ces caractéristiques du scénario pédagogique développé assurent une progression dans ce matériel qui pourrait être utilisé dans le cadre de la formation du personnel enseignant.

The diploma thesis examines Orff Schulwerk as a system of thoughts applicable to music education and its use at General František Fajtl DFC Primary School in Prague 9. It briefly introduces Carl Orff as a pedagogue in the first part. It further describes the formation of Orff Schulwerk in Germany, its basic thoughts, its adaptation in Czechoslovakia and the birth of the Czech Orff's School. This thesis focuses in detail on a school, where music education is taught according to principles of Orff Schulwerk - General František Fajtl DFC Primary School in Letňany. Several chapters are also devoted to the founder of this concept Lenka Pospíšilová and her other projects. The last part of the thesis deals with the teaching of music education in classes with musical specialisation in the first and second grade of this primary school. Based on the research, it compares the teaching process of the two first-year classes with and without musical specialisation in the school year 2016-2017.

This thesis focuses on the Theatresports as a general category of improvisational theatre. Theoretically analyses their structure in terms of theatre studies and interprets the principles of this specific approach to theatre production, deals with their history and development, also is trying to establish a suitable theoretical and conceptual apparatus for them. It also reflects the decade of work of Theatresports in the Czech Republic, summarizes their characteristics and places them in context with other selected speeches theatrical improvisation on the Czech scene. Keywords: Theatresports, Keith Johnstone, improvisational theatre, improvisation, contemporary Czech theatre, Czech improvisational League

This qualitative study explores the experiences of creative improvisation in music therapy sessions of a group of 12 first-year international students. The students took part in a group music therapy process which consisted of eight sessions. Music therapy is explored as a possible approach for offering first-year international students valuable social, emotional and psychological support in light of literature findings that note the continuous struggles faced by international students in their transition to university. Data collection was in the form of a focus group interview, which was conducted after the final session, and two video excerpts from different sessions within the process. I drew on these data sources to explore how music is used as a medium for expressing and sharing first-year experiences, and how the group music therapy sessions afford students opportunities for the development of mutually supportive relationships. Data were coded, then categorised and in this process, themes emerged. The emergent themes suggest that creative improvisation in group music therapy sessions facilitates moving from disconnection to building more friendships and deeper relationships; creates a platform for increasing openness towards exploring, expressing and sharing experiences and emotions concerning being a first-year international student; and how music as an alternative medium to verbal and/or other expression for expressing and interacting, allows for this expression of emotions and experiences, and connection in the group. The findings indicate that it was in expressing and sharing their experiences with one another through musicking that students were able to develop mutually supportive relationships.
