[en] UERJ - PAVILHÃO JOÃO LYRA FILHO: DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION / [pt] UERJ - PAVILHÃO JOÃO LYRA FILHO: PROJETO E CONSTRUÇÃO

30 December 2021 (has links)
[pt] Esse trabalho se dedica a uma análise de ordem projetual e construtiva do Pavilhão João Lyra Filho, edifício principal do Campus Francisco Negrão de Lima, sede da Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ). O campus, objeto de um concurso realizado pela Universidade em 1968, no qual os arquitetos Flávio Marinho Rêgo e Luiz Paulo Conde foram os vencedores, tem origem em um período de transição da arquitetura moderna brasileira e de expansão da estrutura voltada para o ensino superior no Brasil e no mundo. Nesse período, surgem no cenário internacional propostas inovadoras de campi que dialogam com a ideia de megaestrutura. Stefan Muthesius, autor do livro The postwar university: Utopianist campus and college, publicado no ano 2000, reconhece esses campi como single structure campus, em uma tradução livre campus de estrutura única. Essa classificação remete à campi em que o complexo programa universitário se concentra majoritariamente em um único edifício. Nesses casos, campus e edifício se confundem em uma única estrutura, impossibilitando dissociarmos um do outro. / [en] This work is dedicated to an analysis of the design and construction order of the João Lyra Filho Pavilion, the main building on the Francisco Negrão de Lima Campus, headquarters of the Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ). The campus, the object of a competition held by the University in 1968, in which the architects Flávio Marinho Rêgo and Luiz Paulo Conde were the winners, has its origins in a period of transition of modern Brazilian architecture and expansion of the structure aimed at higher education in Brazil. During this period, innovative proposals for campuses that dialogue with the idea of megastructure emerged on the international scene. Stefan Muthesius, author of the book The postwar university: Utopianist campus and college, published in 2000, recognizes these campuses as single structure campus. This classification refers to campuses such as UERJ, where the complex university program is concentrated in a single building, in the case of the University in the João Lyra Filho Pavilion. In these cases, campus and building are confused in a single structure, making it impossible for us to dissociate from each other.

Abjekta möjligheter : En studie av det queera abjektet i svensk samtidslitteratur / Abject Possibilites : A study of the queer abject in contemporary Swedish literature

Randeblad, Joel January 2024 (has links)
This essay, through Julia Kristeva’s theory of abjection, seeks to shift the focus from the society that abjects towards the abjected through a generous reading of two contemporary Swedish queer novels, Du är rötterna som sover vid mina fötter och håller jorden på plats by Eli Levén and Ett så starkt ljus by Lyra Ekström Lindbäck. I discuss how the queer subject relates to different types of borders that Kristeva posits, such as the bodily border, the border of the I, and a moral or societal border. I find that the queer subject has a different relationship to these borders, and view and experience them in ways different than Kristeva suggests. Furthermore, I analyse how the queer subject experiences being made abject. I find that this experience can both be harmful and be somewhat self-sustaining in maintaining societal norms, but also that it can be a way for the queer subject to further position itself as different from a heteronormative society, a position that is truer to who the queer subject feels they are. Through José Esteban Muñoz’ Cruising Utopia I discuss how there are potentialities with being queer, or queer being, such as an expanded worldview and an outstretched concept of possible ways of being and living. The broader aim of this essay is to test Kristeva’s claim that literature is a place for a person to approach the abject, and to examine if literature also has a possibility of portraying an abject position, being a place where the abject itself can examine abjection and being made abject. My conclusion is that this is the case, and furthermore that literature also is a place for the abject to examine potentialities beyond the heteronormative sphere.

Vad de säger när de säger sina namn : En läsning av det subversiva anspråket utgående ifrån produktionen av författarnamnet Lidija Praizović

Jonas, Hammarbäck January 2015 (has links)
This thesis examines the way that subversivity is produced in relation to the name of the author, as understood by Foucault, and what potential for ressistance that can be glimpsed there. This from the reading of three text that in different ways relate to that theme. Firstly, throught the reading of "Isis mamma är genusvetare, skribent och konstnär, min mamma är f.d. städerska, kokerska och dagisfröken, numera förtidspensionär med diagnosen fibromyalgi" by Lidija Praizović, a text that actively work with the internal production of different exteriorities. The text uses these exteriorities, both to commit the violation needed in order to establish it's perspective toward a capitalist publicity, and to anticipate the response and argument towards the text in the same publicity. The becoming of the proletarian class awereness is in the text partly formed in terms of origin and political ressentiment. But when used in litterature the analysis show that they produce subversive collective assemblies and question the border of political discourse. The way we become subjects in submission in terms of being bodies, irrational, specific in relation to a liberal sphere that produces the superior as invisible and bodyless, can establish it's pespective as human and universal when turned into literature. Throughout this processes the proletarian position is produced as an instance of power both internal to the text and pointing outwards, from the text. The analysis futher shows how conventions that regulate the spreading of discourse through the name of the author in capitalism, can be used to circulate experiences of submission that has the formation of collective assemblies as their potential. A process that is directly related to the post-­‐fordist capitalisms needs for new forms of life in order to reproduce. The two other texts, "Nej, man har inte rätt att skriva vad man vill" by Lyra Ekström Lindbäck, and "I huvudet på Lidija Praizović" by Tove Folkesson, was produceed as a reaction to the first texts apperance in the public sphere. The first one is critical to the text and the name, but is still making claims on a subversive position. The reading of it shows that the making of that claim, in relation to the need to produce ones own name as an author name in community with the liberal public sphere, results in a blocking of the subversive potential and a reduction of the subversive to only a marker on the name. A reaction that is in turn foreseen by the first text in it's working with the anticipation of readers responce. The reading of the second text shows how, throught the production of a complete affinity with the exteriority that is the athor name of Lidija Praizović, the potentially dangerous class position is reduced and disarmed. That occurs partly throught a reduction of the class position to aspects that only allows political ressentiment and loneliness. This turns the subversivity and the violation associated with the name of Lidija Praizović to functions for the name of Tove Folkesson. Something that in turn shows not only the potential of using these aspects of political becomings as grounds for building something that goes beyond them, but also the dangers of it. Both texts can therefore be seen as two different attempts to block the spreading of the subversive by using it solely to produce the name of the author.

Ritmos y modos de la música tradicional griega en la creación musical: investigación a través de la práctica y la composición.

Kaniaris, Spyridon 02 September 2021 (has links)
[ES] En la presente investigación hemos planteado como objetivo mostrar el proceso de composición de música propia del autor de la tesis, basada en la práctica y el conocimiento de la música tradicional griega. Para llevar a cabo este trabajo, se precisa conocer la música tradicional y sus procesos de creación según la transmisión oral. La notación de la música clásica europea, aunque es una herramienta imprescindible, no es suficiente para describir por completo los procesos interpretativos y las características sonoras y plurimodales de la música griega, empleadas en las presentes composiciones. Cada ejemplo musical compuesto para esta tesis se acompaña por una grabación. Para realizar estas composiciones, se ha seguido un proceso investigativo que ha englobado varias etapas metodológicas: investigación teórica basada en fuentes bibliográficas y audiovisuales, conocimiento del proceso de la transmisión oral mediante el contacto directo con informantes e inmersión en la praxis musical de la música tradicional griega. Las composiciones se han realizado empleando ritmos y modos de la música tradicional griega y se han clasificado en cuatro categorías. 1. composición musical con instrumentos atemperados, influenciada por la música tradicional. 2. composición musical con instrumentos temperados, influenciadas por la música tradicional. 3. composición de música basada en las características, formas y estructuras musicales de la música tradicional. 4. proceso de la improvisación, tal como surgió en tres grabaciones audiovisuales en las que participó el autor como intérprete. Además, se han estudiado composiciones tradicionales a través de transcripciones realizadas por el autor de la tesis, anotando las ornamentaciones y las notas atemperadas. La presente investigación se divide en dos partes: la primera parte constituye la base teórica sobre la música tradicional griega y se halla dividida en siete capítulos; la segunda parte consiste en el análisis de la música propia compuesta por el autor de la tesis y la clasificación de esta en cuatro categorías. Como fruto de esta investigación, se han extraído varias conclusiones referentes a los procesos creativos empleados para las composiciones presentadas y se han definido tres métodos compositivos según el uso de la notación y el empleo de las características de la transmisión oral: - Composición sin el uso de la notación: improvisación sobre un pedal o una secuencia o composición realizada de forma mental sobre el instrumento musical. - Composición con el uso de notación básica: la notación es un esquema melódico para coordinar a los intérpretes durante la interpretación de música en conjunto. Precisa conocer las características de la música tradicional como son las ornamentaciones, el estilo empleado, variaciones instrumentales y notas atemperadas. - Composición con el uso de notación detallada: música compuesta para ser interpretada de forma literal. Un método compositivo proporcionando música distinta a la música tradicional. Las ornamentaciones y las variaciones melódicas en las repeticiones de melodías están anotadas. El autor de la tesis ha compuesto ritmos de amalgama basados en ritmos tradicionales que proporcionan una nueva dinámica compositiva. El uso y el conocimiento de la sonoridad, timbre y técnica de los instrumentos tradicionales no temperados puede otorgar características del “espíritu” tradicional en la realización de una composición. La variabilidad del material interpretado es un rasgo primordial observado en la praxis realizada por músicos tradicionales, en la que cada repetición de una melodía se realiza casi siempre de forma diferente. La improvisación es una práctica indispensable perteneciente al carácter de la música tradicional y se puede emplear para acompañar la danza, realizar respuestas instrumentales al canto o crear nueva música. La armonización de las melodías modales se puede observar a través del estudio del trabajo de los guitarristas griegos en grabaciones de los años 30, tal como se presenta mediante transcripciones realizadas especialmente para esta tesis. Como futura línea de trabajo, se seguirá investigando la síntesis entre la música tradicional griega y el conocimiento de la música clásica europea. / [CA] En la present investigació hem plantejat com a objectiu, presentar el procés de composició de música pròpia de l'autor de la tesi, basada en la pràctica i el coneixement de la música tradicional grega. Per dur a terme aquest treball, cal conéixer la música tradicional i els seus processos de creació segons la transmissió oral. La notació de la música clàssica europea, tot i que és una eina imprescindible, no és suficient per a descriure completament els processos interpretatius i les característiques sonores i plurimodales de la música grega emprades en les presents composicions. Cada exemple musical compost per a aquesta tesi s'acompanya d'un enregistrament. Per realitzar aquestes composicions, s'ha seguit un procés investigatiu que ha englobat diverses etapes metodològiques: investigació teòrica basada en fonts bibliogràfiques i audiovisuals, coneixement del procés de la transmissió oral mitjançant el contacte directe amb informants i immersió en la praxi musical de la música tradicional grega. Les composicions s'han realitzat emprant ritmes i maneres de la música tradicional grega i s'han classificat en quatre categories. 1. composició musical amb instruments temperats, influenciada per la música tradicional. 2. composició musical amb instruments temperats, influenciades per la música tradicional. 3. composició de música basada en les característiques, formes i estructures musicals de la música tradicional. 4. procés de la improvisació, tal com va sorgir en tres enregistraments audiovisuals en què va participar l'autor com a intèrpret. A més, s'han estudiat composicions tradicionals a través de transcripcions realitzades per l'autor de la tesi, anotant les ornamentacions i les notes temperades. La present investigació es divideix en dues parts: la primera part constitueix la base teòrica sobre la música tradicional grega i es troba dividida en set capítols; la segona part consisteix en l'anàlisi de la música pròpia composta per l'autor de la tesi i la classificació d'aquesta en quatre categories.Com a fruit d'aquesta investigació, s'han extret diverses conclusions referents als processos creatius emprats per a les composicions presentades i s'han definit tres mètodes compositius segons l'ús de la notació i l'ocupació de les característiques de la transmissió oral: - Composició sense l'ús de la notació: improvisació sobre un pedal o una seqüència o composició realitzada de forma mental sobre l'instrument musical. - Composició amb l'ús de notació bàsica: la notació és un esquema melòdic per coordinar als intèrprets durant la interpretació de música en conjunt. Necessita conéixer les característiques de la música tradicional com són les ornamentacions, l'estil emprat, variacions instrumentals i notes temperades. - Composició amb l'ús de notació detallada: música composta per a ser interpretada de manera literal. Un mètode compositiu proporcionant música diferent de la música tradicional. Les ornamentacions i les variacions melòdiques en les repeticions de melodies estan anotades. L'autor de la tesi ha compost ritmes d'amalgama basats en ritmes tradicionals que proporcionen una nova dinàmica compositiva, i ha transcrit per a aquesta tesi enregistraments dels anys 30 de guitarristes grecs per estudiar l'harmonització de les melodies modals. . L'ús i el coneixement de la sonoritat, timbre i tècnica dels instruments tradicionals temperats pot atorgar característiques de l ' "esperit" tradicional a la realització d'una composició. La variabilitat de l'material interpretat és un tret primordial observat en la praxi realitzada per músics tradicionals, en què cada repetició d'una melodia es realitza gairebé sempre de forma diferent. Finalment, la improvisació és indispensable en la música tradicional i es pot emprar per acompanyar la dansa, realitzar respostes instrumentals a el cant o crear nova música. / [EN] In this research we have established the objective of presenting the process of composing the author's own music, based on the practice and knowledge of traditional Greek music. To carry out this work, it is necessary to have knowledge of traditional music and its creation processes according to oral transmission. The notation of European classical music, although it is an essential tool, is not sufficient to fully describe the interpretive processes and the sonic and multimodal characteristics of Greek music used in the present compositions. Each musical example composed for this thesis is accompanied by a recording. In order to create these compositions, a research process has been followed that has encompassed several methodological stages: theoretical research based on bibliographic and audiovisual sources, knowledge of the process of oral transmission through direct contact with informants and immersion in the musical praxis of traditional music Greek. The compositions have been made using rhythms and modes of traditional Greek music and have been classified into four categories. 1. musical composition with tempered instruments, influenced by traditional music. 2. musical composition with tempered instruments, influenced by traditional music. 3. composition of music based on the characteristics, forms and musical structures of traditional music. 4. improvisation process, as it arose in three audiovisual recordings in which the author participated as a performer. In addition, traditional compositions have been studied through transcriptions made by the author of the thesis, noting ornamentation and tempered notes. This research is divided into two parts: the first part constitutes the theoretical basis on traditional Greek music and is divided into seven chapters; The second part consists of the analysis of the own music composed by the author of the thesis and the classification of this in four categories. As a result of this research, several conclusions have been reached regarding the creative processes used for the compositions presented and therefore three compositional methods have been defined according to the use of notation and the use of the characteristics of oral transmission: - Composition without the use of notation: improvisation on a pedal or a sequence or composition performed mentally on the musical instrument. - Composition with the use of basic notation: the notation is a melodic scheme to coordinate the interpreters during the performance of music together. It¿s important to know the characteristics of traditional music such as ornamentation, the style used, instrumental variations and tempered notes. - Composition with the use of detailed notation: music composed to be interpreted literally. A compositional method providing music different from traditional music. The ornamentations and melodic variations in the melody repetitions are noted. The author of the thesis has composed amalgam rhythms based on traditional rhythms that provide new routes of composition, and has transcribed for this thesis recordings from the 30s by Greek guitarists in order to study the harmonization of modal melodies. The use and knowledge of the sound, timbre and technique of tempered traditional instruments can provide characteristics of the traditional "spirit" in the realization of a composition. The variability of the material played is a primary feature observed in the practice performed by traditional musicians, in which each repetition of a melody is almost always performed differently. Finally, improvisation is indispensable in traditional music and can be used to accompany dance, perform instrumental responses to singing, or create new music. / Kaniaris, S. (2021).

Exploring Game Design Pitfalls through patterns : Experiences when making our first game / Undersökning av fallgropar inom speldesign genom design mönster : erfarenheter från första spelprojektet

Hedenskog, Jens January 2012 (has links)
The purpose of this report is to analyze what went wrong with the adventure game project called Fairytale, I started together with 4 of my fellow university students at Gotland University, spring 2007. My ambition with this report is to enlighten problems in game design that arose during the game development process in order to prevent others from making the same mistakes. The problems are analyzed according to game design patterns defined by Björk, S. and Holopainen, J. (2005). Patterns in Game Design. Boston, Massachusetts. Jenifer Niles. The game was exhibited to the public at Gotland Game Awards 2007, Leipzig Game Developers Conference 2007, Tekniska Museet 2007, Almedalsveckan 2008 and Gotland Game Awards 2008. The results of the report show that redesigning already finished game features means a lot of troubles in relation to its dependency on other game elements. The key abilities of the main character were vaguely defined since the beginning of the project which caused problems with earlier designed levels whenever a new item was introduced. The terrain of the prior levels didn’t match the abilities of the new items, which forced changes to be made. The biggest mistake with this project was that finished game elements never were considered final. My role in the project was the solo game programmer and co-designer. I shared the designing tasks together with Annika Fogelgren who also was the producer of our team. Albertina Sparrhult, Emma Johansson and Marie Viberg were our core graphic artists. Together, we created the Fairytale game.

Antické hudební nástroje s přihlédnutím k ikonografickým pramenům / Greek and Roman musical instruments and their iconography

Waňousová, Lucie January 2016 (has links)
This thesis deals with ancient string and percussion instruments with additional focus on a hydraulic organ, an instrument that is difficult to categorize. The first part of the thesis is a follow-up to the bachelor thesis Wind Instruments of Ancient Greece and Rome, which is devoted to wind instruments, and deals with the classification, description and evolution of the instruments of the other two instrumental groups. This is illustrated on the background of literary, archaeological and iconographic sources, especially on the vase painting. Vase painting well demonstrates the shape, evolution and regional occurrence of these instruments. In the second part of this thesis the Attic and southern Italy vase paintings will be used to compare musical culture in both of these areas. In Attic music scenes the chronological evolution of depicted instruments is examined, while in southern Italian scenes we will concentrate on the differences of depicted instruments in the regions of Campania, Lucania, Sicily, Paestum and Apulia. Finally, the Attic musical instruments are compared with the instruments of southern Italy. The results of the analyses will be entered into graphs. Keywords: ancient music, strings instruments, percussion instruments, Greece, Southern Italy, Campania, Lucania, Apulia, Sicily,...

Spohner, Milan January 2021 (has links)
The dissertation thesis deals with the analysis of prospective environmentally compatible electrical insulating fluids for electrical engineering in relation to their chemical structure. The thesis starts with the overview of the current state of the art and of the latest trends in the use of synthetic and biodegradable natural oils. In the experimental part were studied these oils: mineral oils, rapeseed oil, sunflower oils, soybean oil, methyl oleate, peanut oil, MCT oil, castor oil and other. Dielectric properties were measured using LRC meter Agilent 4980A including dielectric liquid test fixture Agilent 16452A and also by the Novocontrol Alpha-A analyzer. Electrical properties are presented in the frequency range 10 mHz – 1 MHz range in the temperature interval 253 K to 363 K. The work goes on with the study of the suitability of individual oils for lower temperature, including the impact of the chemical structure and formulation on electrical properties.
