Mainstream cinema is to an ever-increasing degree deploying digital imaging technologies to work with the human form; expanding on it, morphing its features, or providing new ways of presenting it. This has prompted theories of simulation and virtualisation to explore the cultural and aesthetic implications, anxieties, and possibilities of a loss of the ‘real’ – in turn often defined in terms of the photographic trace. This thesis wants to provide another perspective. Following instead some recent imperatives in art-theory, this study looks to introduce and expand on the notion of the human figure, as pertaining to processes of figuration rather than (only) representation. The notion of the figure and figuration have an extended history in the fields of hermeneutics, aesthetics, and philosophy, through which they have come to stand for particular theories and methodologies with regards to images and their communication of meaning. This objective of this study is to appropriate these for film-theory, culminating in two case-studies to demonstrate how formal parameters present and organise ideas of the body and the human. The aim is to develop a material approach to contemporary digital practices, where bodies have not ceased to matter but are framed in new ways by new technologies.

This dissertation excavates the work of early special effects cinematographer Norman O. Dawn in order to explore film spectatorship, the ephemerality of the cinematic image, and motion picture preservation and archival practices. Best known for his innovations of glass and matte shot techniques, Dawn produced 861 composite images while working in the U.S. film industry between 1906 and 1954. Although technological film historians acknowledge the importance of Dawn’s innovations to the development of motion picture special effects, the composite images themselves as well as the films for which they were produced remain in relative obscurity. Rather than attempting to recover these objects for inclusion in an existing film canon, my research interrogates their obscurity by analyzing Dawn’s special effects processes against the broader economic concerns that inform the dominant practices of the US film industry during the first half of the twentieth-century. My research begins with the Norman O. Dawn collection housed at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, which is the most comprehensive historical record of Dawn’s work in the film industry. Constructed by Dawn himself between 1962 and 1974, this collection consists of 164 poster-sized collages of archival ephemera that illustrate the special effects processes employed in the production of 235 composite images for eighty-five films. While these eighty-five film titles constitute a tentative corpus upon which to base my research, seventy of these films are lost, which raises questions concerning the relationship between motion picture preservation and film history, specifically why these films have not been preserved while others have and to what extent the economic imperatives of the film industry have determined these conditions. I address these questions in my analysis of archival material related to these films, finding that they traverse several distinct domains of film practice—including early scenic footage for newsreels and the amusement park ride Hale’s Tours of the World, early one-reel travel films, silent-era studio shorts, serials, and B features, and poverty row and independently-produced silent and sound feature-length films—thereby situating Dawn’s special effects at the intersection of the early and contemporary cinematic modes often aligned in studies of cinematic special effects. I argue that this heterogeneous corpus points to a studio-era Hollywood cinema alternative to the classical model, largely forgotten because it is dominated by low-budget product intended to supplement more costly feature films. In contrast to the classical model, this alternate cinematic mode emphasizes the scenic and thrilling elements that characterize both early exhibitionist films and contemporary effects-driven blockbusters. In this context, Dawn’s special effects processes constitute a historically marginalized practice precisely because they are non-routine techniques that provide cost-effective means to produce otherwise economically infeasible scenes, and, as such, operate on the periphery of conventional film production.

This Dissertation analyzes the conditions, problems and potential of rural women&rsquo / s empowerment through a sample of rural women&rsquo / s organizations (two women&rsquo / s cooperative, seven rural development cooperative and one village women associaton) with interpreting DAWN iniative and GAD approach with a socialist feminist perspective. In this study, it is stated that the agricultural sector policies and rural development policy were constructed in relation with the conditions of underdevelopment and thus, in relation with the agreements with IMF, WTO and IPARD Programme of EU which enforced the decreasing of agricultural sector subsidies. It is notable that these policies are formulated with an aim of increasing the influence and significance of capitalist relations in agricultural sector and rural areas without taking precautions for the survival of small sized farming households in rural areas. Despite these general influences of underdevelopment to Turkish Agricultural Sector and patriarchal gender assumptions, these women&rsquo / s organizations could be successful to some extent empowering their members with the recognized dimensions of empowerment such as / psychological, economical, social, organizational and political. All these dimensions are interrelated with each other. In this study, it was observed that while economic empowerment and psychological empowerment is the base of all other dimensions of empowerment, social empowerment and organizational empowerment are the most dynamic processes of empowerment and political empowerment is hardest dimension or outcome to achieve.

Kangaroo paw inflorescences stored dry at 0 to 1 Degrees Celsius for 14 days have been found previously to have substantially reduced post-storage vase life. In this project, experiments were conducted to quantify the vase life of dry, stored Kangaroo paw flowers following storage at either 0, 7.5 or 13 Degrees Celsius for up to four weeks. the aim of these experiments was to determine a dry storage temperature suitable for commercial use. experiments were carried out using two cultivars of Kangaroo paw, 'Bush Dawn' and 'Big Red'. For each cultivar, vase life was assessed by (1) determining the time taken for each flower to lose 20% of its initial fresh weight and (2) determining the time taken for 10% of the inflorescence to become to discoloured. Vase life studies were carried out a 22 Degrees Celsius prior to and following removal from low temperature storage and flowers were weighed, inflorescence colour determined and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters Fo, minimal fluorescence emission, and Fm, maximum fluorescence emission were determined.

Orientador: Luís Henrique Bassoi / Banca: Sarita Leonel / Banca: Antonio Odair Santos / Resumo: A irrigação é uma prática importante no cultivo de espécies frutíferas no Semiárido brasileiro, devido à precipitação pluvial com baixa magnitude, distribuição temporal irregular e insuficiente para atender a demanda hídrica das culturas agrícolas. Assim, o presente trabalho foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos de diferentes manejos de irrigação na videira de vinho cv. Syrah/1103P, no comportamento ecofisiológico da cultura e em seus aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos da produção de uvas. O experimento foi conduzido na Embrapa Semiárido, em Petrolina - PE, durante o primeiro ciclo de produção da cultura (13 de abril a 6 de agosto de 2010). O espaçamento da cultura foi de 3m entre linhas de plantas e 1 m entre plantas. O sistema de irrigação utilizado foi o de gotejamento, com emissores espaçados a 0,5 m na linha de plantio com vazão de 2,5 Lh-1. O delineamento estatístico foi o de blocos casualizados, com 4 repetições e 3 tratamentos: irrigação plena (IP) - irrigação durante todo o ciclo da cultura; irrigação deficitária (ID) - interrupção da irrigação a partir dos 45 dias após a poda de produção (dapp) até a colheita; e irrigação com déficit controlado (IDC) - interrupção da irrigação aos 45 dapp e irrigações eventuais para o aumento da umidade do solo na profundidade efetiva do sistema radicular (0,6 m). O manejo da irrigação foi baseado na evapotranspiração da cultura (ETc) estimada pela relação entre a evapotranspiração de referência (ETo) e coeficientes da cultura (Kc). A partir de 45 dapp e até a colheita (115 dapp), a umidade do solo até a profundidade de 1,20 m foi menor nos tratamentos IDC e ID em relação ao tratamento IP / Abstract: Irrigation is important practice in the fruit crop growing in the Brazilian Semiarid region, due to low magnitude raintall, with irregular time distribuition, which is not enough to supply water demand by plants. Hence, a research work was designed to evoluate the effects of different irrigation schedulings on wine grapevine, particularly on plant ecophysiological behavior and yield. The experiment was carried out at Embrapa Tropical Semi-Arid, in Petrolina, State of Pernambuco, Brazil, during the first crop growing season (April 13 to August 6, 2010) of grapevine cv. Syrah grafted on Paulsen 1103 rootstock, planted on grid spacing of 3 m between rows and 1m between plants. Drip irrigation system was used with 2.5 L.h-1 flow emitter spaced in 0.5 m. The experiment was designed in randomized blocks, with 4 replications and 3 irrigation treatments: full irrigation (FI) - irrigation throuhgtout the entire growing season; deficit irrigation (DI) - water application interrupted since 45 days after pruning (dap) until harvest; e regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) - irrigation interrupted since 45 dapp but occasionally performed to increase soil water storage in the effective root zone (0,6 m depth). Irrigation scheduling was performed based on crop evapotranspiration (ETc), which was estinated by the relationship between reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and crop coefficients (Kc). Soil water content at 1.2 m depth from 45 dap to 115 dap (harvest), was lower in DI and RDI treatments, when compared with FI treatment. Higher pre-daw leaf water potential values were found in RDI treatment at 56 dap (-4.2 MPa), and in DI treatment at 99 dap (-5 MPa) / Mestre

Concomitantemente a distribuição da população sobre o espaço ocorre da mesma forma. Nem sempre o local de moradia e o local de trabalho coincidem de se localizarem dentro de uma mesma área político-administrativa. Essa heterogeneidade contribui para que ocorra o deslocamento pendular – deslocamento que ultrapassa os limites políticoadministrativos das cidades com a finalidade de trabalho/estudo - , onde os fluxos gerados são em grande parte realizados pelos transportes coletivos. Esses deslocamentos acontecem durante todo o dia, já que com o desenvolvimento tecnológico pode-se ampliar o tempo útil para produção, acarretando na oferta de postos de trabalhos em distintos horários, incluindo na noite/madrugada. É nesse contexto que essa dissertação discorre sobre os deslocamentos pendulares realizados dentro da RMR, tendo como infraestrutura a ser analisada o Terminal do Cais de Santa Rita, posto que é a partir desse que o transporte coletivo da RMR funciona na madrugada, possibilitando o deslocamento de pessoas pelo transporte coletivo nesse recorte temporal. Tem-se a madrugada como importante recorte temporal a ser analisado, posto que o mesmo é negligenciado pelas agendas de pesquisas e por configurar-se como o período em que os trabalhadores noturnos deslocam-se sobre o solo metropolitano. Com isso, a dissertação teve como objetivo analisar as temporalidades de fluxo no Terminal do Cais de Santa Rita a partir dos seus usuários e das articulações estabelecidas na rede de transportes durante a madrugada bem como as dinâmicas sociais desencadeadas pelo terminal. Assim, a partir das análises de entrevistas/questionários realizados no objeto de estudo revelou-se que o mesmo é uma infraestrutura com funcionamento diverso e importante dentro da RMR, devido à sua importância para a rede de transportes na madrugada. / In capitalism the spatial distribution of economic activity - and jobs - occurs heterogeneously. Concomitantly the population distribution on the space is the same. Not always the place of residence and place of work coincide they are located within the same political – administrative area. This heterogeneity contributes to occur the commuter traffic – movement that goes beyond the political and administrative boundaries of the cities with the purpose to work / study – where the flows generated are largely achieved by public transportation. These shifts happen throughout the day, as with technological development can extend the time for production, resulting in the supply of work stations at different times, including at night / early morning. In this context, this dissertation discusses the commuting performed within the RMR, with the infrastructure to be analyzed the Cais de Santa Rita’s Terminal, because of it the RMR public transportation works after midnight, allowing the displacement people by public transport. Thus, the thesis had to analyze the Cais de Santa Rita’s Terminal from its users and joints established in the transport network after midnight and the social dynamics unleashed by the terminal. Thus, from the analysis of interviews / questionnaires carried out in the object of study it has proved that it is an infrastructure with several operation and important within the RMR due to its importance for the transport network in the after midnight.

However, in recent years, many of these immigrants are leaving the sewing workshops and inserting in activities related to the popular trade, thus becoming peddlers and hawkers, which have as one of its main areas of insertion of the Fair Dawn an important circuit existing popular trade in the city. Besides the Bolivians are also present at the fair other immigrant groups such as chinese, paraguayans, peruvians, africans from several countries besides the coming internal migrants, especially the Brazilian Northeast. Thus, this circuit trade has been characterized as an important area of insertion for different groups arriving in the city. Understand the historical movement that led the members of this group initially restricted the workshops for this trade space is the central objective of this dissertation, here understand this movement as the result of larger process in which Bolivian immigrants come gradually entering into new spaces, jockeying for position and acquiring power, we define this movement as a process of accumulation of experiences from this group within the city . Thus, this study aimed to understand how these immigrants fit into this trade circuit and what consequences that result from this process, such as conflicts with other ethnic groups, the possibility of mobility afforded by new and existing occupancy changes within the community that fruit new context. To achieve these goals we use as a method for gathering information fieldwork using participant observation, trying to establish a dialogue with our stakeholders to better understand this social phenomenon. / A presente dissertação objetiva compreender a inserção dos imigrantes bolivianos no comércio popular na cidade de São Paulo. Ao longo das últimas três décadas, o fluxo de imigrantes bolivianos vem se intensificando, estes encontram trabalho principalmente nas inúmeras oficinas de costura espalhadas pela cidade. Porém, nos últimos anos, muitos desses imigrantes estão deixando as oficinas de costura e se inserindo em atividades ligadas ao comércio popular, tornando-se camelôs e vendedores ambulantes, os quais terão como um dos seus principais espaços de inserção a Feira da Madrugada, um importante circuito de comércio popular existente na cidade. Além dos bolivianos também estão presentes na feira imigrantes de outras nacionalidades, como os chineses, paraguaios, peruanos, africanos de diversos países, além dos migrantes internos vindos do Nordeste brasileiro. Desta forma, este circuito de comércio vem se caracterizando como um importante espaço de inserção para os diferentes grupos que chegam à cidade. Compreender o movimento histórico que levou os membros deste grupo, inicialmente restritos as oficinas para este espaço de comércio é o objetivo central desta dissertação. Aqui compreendemos imigrantes bolivianos vêm gradativamente se inserindo em novos espaços na cidade, disputando posições e adquirindo poder, definimos este movimento como sendo um processo de acumulação de experiências por parte deste grupo dentro da cidade. Assim, o intuito é compreender como estes imigrantes se inserem neste circuito de comércio e quais desdobramentos resultam deste processo, tais como os conflitos com as demais etnias, a possibilidade de mobilidade ascendente proporcionada pela nova ocupação e as alterações existentes no interior da comunidade, derivadas desse novo contexto. Para atingir estes objetivos utilizamos como método para coleta de informações a pesquisa de campo com o uso da observação participante, estabelecendo um diálogo com os interlocutores para a melhor compreensão deste fenômeno social.

In 2011, a coalition of member states in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization together with partner nations outside of the alliance cooperated against the Libyan regime led by Colonel Muammar Khadaffi. The primary goals of the operations in Libya were to protect the civil population from attacks by the Libyan regime, maintain the no-flyzone and arms embargo. The operations in Libya proved to be successful and many authors claims that airpower were the main key to the victory.John A. Warden III and Robert A. Pape have been mentioned in discussions about airpower and there have also been a debate regarding which theory that best describes how air power should be used. Some authors who have examined the Libyan war claims that the outcome can be understood with John Wardens theories while other claims that it can be understood from Robert Papes theories.This study aims to examine and try to understand the outcome of the air campaign in Libya 2011. Based on the accomplishment of air power in the Libyan civil war along with the debate between John Warden and Robert Pape the conclusion of this study is that the success in the war can be identified in both theories. John Warden’s theory about strategic airpower together with Robert Pape’s theory about direct support of ground forces seems to be the key factor that ended the war with a successful outcome.
