This thesis project was an experiment in thinking/making. Borrowing from the Renaissance Hermetic Tradition of power magic in the work of Dr. John Dee, it began in contemplative research mode in order to find sources for action. The project had its final goal, a theatrical performance (masque) to be delivered as an act of inter-subjective exchange extending beyond solipsism by means of thinking through actions and things. The interdisciplinary nature of the event spoke of architecture's ability to bring together various modes of abstract expression (literature, theatre, theory, music, etc.) without attempts at explicit meaning but by searching for implicitness in the juxtaposition of messages and mediums. In its historical survey from ancient Greek sacrificial rituals to present butchering practices, the thesis project presents as a crosscurrent a critique of power and its contemporary implications. / This document is a record of the events and actions which led up to the construction and performance of "Theseus Re-membered" on the 11th of June, 1992.

This thesis project consists of twenty oil paintings and watercolors. It is a series of visual problems based on work from direct observation as opposed to work from imagination. The concern is to show how the works from observed nature affect the imaginary pieces and how the imaginary works lend unexpected elements to the observed works. With a particular interest in color, visual energy, and painterly form, the project shows how these two avenues of exploration start out separately and eventually blend.

El rol que desempeña la tecnología en el mundo de hoy es de suma importancia para el hombre y su sociedad. En un período de tiempo bastante breve con relación a otros momentos de avances científicos en la historia (por ejemplo la Revolución Industrial), el ser humano ha aprendido a utilizar la tecnología en su beneficio en una amplia gama de actividades, tanto cotidianas como netamente científicas, industriales o comerciales. Uno de los usos más vanguardistas que se le ha dado a los avances tecnológicos es el de apoyo a las operaciones y a la gestión de las empresas. Dado la relevancia que está teniendo la tecnología en el desarrollo como en la evolución de los negocios, es que hemos decidido enfocar este trabajo en los sistemas de información para el control de gestión. Estos sistemas están muy en boga en el ámbito económico y financiero, pero sigue existiendo, en la mayoría de los casos, una subutilización de estos, no encontrando aún su real valor y utilidad, principalmente por existir muchos factores en el entorno de las empresas que entorpecen su correcto uso y la posibilidad de optimizar sus resultados en pos de un beneficio final para estas.
