The Sub-CountryMaurer, Jason 24 July 2017 (has links)
This thesis is the beginning of a larger memoir project. I'm using what some would call a collage form of memory-based writing to focus on one year of my life in 1984. The nonlinear nature of the form reflects the era of the piece, a time of instability and change, and it helped me test Jay Ponteri's advice: "Don't reach for memory; let memory reach for you." In this thesis, the narrator is allowed to not know what he's doing. At times, his only job is to listen intently and follow the sound.
Music is central to my thesis, as it was to the era I'm writing about. I use music to process emotion and to describe the ineffable. And music is often my way into memory, a more poetic route that encourages me to "proceed with abandon," as Antonin Artaud urged, revealing the unexpected connections that lead me to meaning.
With this piece of writing, I'm exploring the theme of finding a sense of place, both in the world and within one's self. I circle death, loss, belonging and authority, in order to find my own sense of authority and voice.

Between boundaries: a new border post at BeitbridgeTrollip, Daniel Charles Fulton 04 November 2014 (has links)
Thesis (M.Arch. (Professional))--University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment, School of Architecture and Planning, 2013. / The current perception that engulfs borders and their posts is one of fear, apprehension and
hostility. The essay seeks to formulate a new approach through which to view a border. Borders are
places of cultural collision and richness, forming a type of hybrid, described best through the
metaphor of theatre. This exploration is divided into three topics, namely security, immigration and
the human experience, and culture and the border as theatre. Conceptual architectural projects by
Lebbeus Woods, Office KGDVS and Rem Koolhaas are examples of how this thinking can be realised
through architectural possibilities.
It is therefore the intention of this thesis to express these ideas through the proposal of a new
border post at Beitbridge, situated between South Africa and Zimbabwe. The development of no
man’s land, or the ‘Space of Cultural Possibilities’ provides an opportunity to create a platform
where the random encounters between travellers is encouraged. The transition from one country to
another becomes a vibrant an unanticipated experience that seeks to shift the negative perception,
built on fear, illegality and the questioning of one’s identity, to one that exposes the cultural richness
of a place where multitudes of nationalities are filtered through a single gateway.
