Para tanto, utilizou-se como referencial metodológico a etnografia, registrando as observações do cotidiano escolar em diário de campo, além de fotografias produzidas pelos estudantes. Foram selecionados dez alunos com perfis que representassem, de uma maneira geral, toda a turma de oitava série/nono ano. Foi pedido a eles que tirassem cinco fotografias do que lhes interessassem mostrar sobre a escola. As fotografias foram dividas em temas, considerando as legendas atribuídas pelos respectivos autores e, posteriormente, foram realizados encontros para discutir os temas. As discussões foram gravadas em áudio e vídeo e transcritas. A análise de dados foi realizada de acordo com os temas mais destacados pelos estudantes. A pesquisa mostrou que os alunos não têm encontrado sentido em algumas das posturas de professores - não só com relação ao autoritarismo, mas também com relação à qualidade do ensino - e de funcionários e que há limitações no uso dos espaços da escola. Ainda que os alunos vejam a escola como antidemocrática por não considerar suas opiniões e demandas, acreditam na sua importância não só como espaço de sociabilidade, mas também como oportunidade de aprendizado, de serem ouvidos por alguns professores, para desenvolver seus potenciais, além de poder se preparar para um futuro profissional. / Abstract: This research has aimed to investigate what eighth-grade students from a public school in Campinas (SP) have to say about the school. In order to that, it was used as reference the ethnographic methodology, registering the daily observation on a field journal, and pictures taken by the students. Ten students were selected which represented a general profile of their eighth grade class. It was asked to these students to take five pictures of whatever it was interesting to them to be showed about the school. These pictures were divided in themes, considering the titles attributed by the respective authors and, lately, meetings were arranged to discuss those themes. The discussions were recorded in audio, video and transcribed. The data analysis happened accordingly to the themes most stressed by the students. The research showed that students have not seen much sense in some attitudes of the teachers - not only regarding authoritarianism but also regarding teaching quality - and of the other employees, and there are limitations concerning the use of the spaces at school. Despite students see the school as antidemocratic due to not consider their opinions and demands, they believe in its importance not only as a sociability space, but also as an opportunity of learning, of being hear by the teachers in order to develop their potentials, including being able to be prepared for a professional future. / Mestrado / Ensino e Práticas Culturais / Mestre em Educação

The relationship between color and music, and their relation to the human being and our surrounding universe has been subject of studies, theories and experiments since the old ages. From the ancient China and Persia to the present times, philosophers, scientists and artists have tried to explain these connections between color and music and also tried to find answers to this ancient enigma. The invention of the color organ c. 1730, an instrument that was intended to display color in addition to the musical auditive experience, was the first attempt to materialize the practical correlation between notes and color. This correlation has its foundation in the ideas of Isaac Newton, who through his book Optics published only a few years earlier, conformed the beginning of a new art culture: “Visual music”, in which image and sound are the fundamental elements in the creative process. The “visual music” concept is not only grounded in the ideas of music and sound, but also in the extraordinary creative capability of certain individuals. In short, those blessed with the gift of synaesthesia, a condition that provides a very small percentage of our population with very unique abilities like seeing color when hearing sound. Synaesthesia, a term that has been surrounded by scepticism and disbelief until the middle of the 19th century, will be the ingredient that would open for a complete new world of creative experiences, and became one of the main subjects of investigation and creation for many modern artists like Kandinsky and Klee, poets like Baudelaire, and composers like Skrjabin, Schoenberg or Wagner. In this essay, I’ll create three different studies in which image and sound will be combined to conform unique works. And based on my own synesthetic experience, I will approach my own creative process with the intention of analyzing it and explain how this correlation of image and sound works from my own and subjective artistic perspective.
