Min undersökning gjordes för att undersöka tre olika färgvariablers påverkan av känslorna harmoni och disharmoni. De tre färgvariablerna var färgmättnad, färgkontrast, och kall och varm färgnyans. Jag undersökte även påverkan av synonyma och närliggande känslor. Dessa känslor var ordinär, ovanlig, passiv, aktiv, lugn, orolig, behaglig, obehaglig, sammanhängande och osammanhängande.  Känslopåverkan har undersökts genom att låta respondenter gradera känslointryck från färg i olika konceptuella miljölandskap. Jag analyserade svaret från respondenterna för att se om det fanns skillnader i svaren på kompositioner där endast skillnaden var hög eller låg färgmättnad och färgkontrast, och kall eller varm färgnyans. Resultaten pekar på att en låg färgmättnad skapar harmoni och en hög färgmättnad skapar disharmoni, och att en kall färgskala skapar harmoni och en varm färgskala skapar disharmoni. Det finns även tendenser för att färgmättnad, färgkontrast, och kall och varm färgnyans påverkar harmoni, disharmoni och dess närliggande känslor.

The absurd is a widespread term to describe literature today and in this essay I am interested in what parts of a literary text that can be defined as absurd. With help from the French-Algerian writer Albert Camus definition of the absurd in The Myth of Sisyphus (1942) and the absurd parts in his novel The Stranger (1942) I will examine the absurd in two of the Swedish writer Jonas Karlsson’s short stories. It is a phenomenological study of the short stories "Fakturan" and "Högläsning 2" that can be found in Spelreglerna (2011). The phenomenological reading consists people’s experiences and what is happening in their consciousness before, during and after experiencing it. Camus description of the absurd is the foundation for my analysis of Karlsson. Karlsson’s short stories have interesting similarities with Camus description of the absurd, which is fascinating because of their different backgrounds. My aim with the essay is to analyze the absurd in Karlsson’s short stories, both through parallels to Camus and without.

This text is written with the purpose of examining the preschool's harmony and disharmony. What is happening in moments of interaction with others, children and educators, what is it in today's preschool that stands in the way of this interaction, and what will be the consequences of the development that leads us farther and farther away from this interaction? This text begins with three stories where in the first two I portrayed two situations of interaction, one from my experience of the world of music and one from the preschool. The third describes what will illuminate one of the essay's more conflicting situations.In my text, I have produced an analogy between the preschool's practice and the musical practice, initially with the aim of letting music be supportive in explaining the unseen and the elements that can be difficult to understand in the preschool, but this work has come to featurethe musical sphere increasingly throughout the text’s development. The experience of the music has been able to explain situations in preschool, putting words to phenomenon that sems to be without words, but it has also let the musical aspect itself be explained. In my investigation of the harmony, I have mainly been inspired and led by Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback's collection of essays Praise to nothingness - essays on philosophical hermeneutics. Her description of nothingness and its events through inspiration, influence and improvisation has taken me and the text on a journey in how interaction in preschool can look and what it can create. Through her text, self -transformation has become a central concept in my text and thoughts.As I have come to the study of disharmony, I have looked at Foucault's concept of discourse.The discursive formations that have been and continue to be creating the preschool curriculum and conditions, and here I have also looked at the consequences of the increasingly efficiency, quality- and production-focused preschool that we see today. Marx's thoughts on alienationhave been allowed to lead the text's reasoning about the consequences of this development and I conclude my text by asking myself and you as a reader:"What will happen to our children?
