Water Footprint Management for Sustainable Growth in the Bangladesh Apparel Sector
Authors: Hossain Laila , Khan Mohidus Samad
Published: October 2020

Bangladesh is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, primarily driven by its textile industries. A high amount of water is consumed and polluted in the production and processing of raw material to the final product in the textile industry. Therefore, water footprint assessment is important for textile products. In this study, the water footprint of cotton cultivation, transportation and textile industry was calculated by analyzing the amount of imported cotton, production and processing capacity of cotton yarn and cotton fabrics, wastewater volume, number of workers and pollution load database, for 2012–2016. For the textile industry, the annual water footprint was found to be 1.8 billion m3. This high amount of water footprint and water pollution may result in depletion of groundwater level and can lead to major health problems for the local people, respectively. Total water footprint for ready-made garment product is found to be 27.56 billion m3, whereas considering proper water treatment and water reuse facilities can reduce the grey water footprint to around 1.26 billion m3. This study shows the extent of water pollution, groundwater depletion and economic impact of groundwater extraction, and possible means to reduce water footprint in cotton cultivation and textile industries.
Nutrient Retention in Ecologically Functional Floodplains: A Review
Authors: Gordon Brad A. , Dorothy Olivia , Lenhart Christian F.
Published: October 2020

Nutrient loads in fresh and coastal waters continue to lead to harmful algal blooms across the globe. Historically, floodplains—low-lying areas adjacent to streams and rivers that become inundated during high-flow events—would have been nutrient deposition and/or removal sites within riparian corridors, but many floodplains have been developed and/or disconnected. This review synthesizes literature and data available from field studies quantifying nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) removal within floodplains across North America and Europe to determine how effective floodplain restoration is at removing nutrients. The mean removal of nitrate-N (NO3−-N), the primary form of N in floodplain studies, was 200 (SD = 198) kg-N ha−1 year−1, and of total or particulate P was 21.0 (SD = 31.4) kg-P ha−1 year−1. Based on the literature, more effective designs of restored floodplains should include optimal hydraulic load, permanent wetlands, geomorphic diversity, and dense vegetation. Floodplain restorations along waterways with higher nutrient concentrations could lead to a more effective investment for nutrient removal. Overall, restoring and reconnecting floodplains throughout watersheds is a viable and effective means of removing nutrients while also restoring the many other benefits that floodplains provide.

Published: October 2020

Long-term wastewater and reclaimed water irrigation systems constitute the major processes in local water circulation, which concomitantly introduce plenty of undesirable substances that can threaten water quality, ecosystem functions and human health. At the Southeast Reclaimed Water Irrigation Region (SRWIR) of Beijing, wastewater irrigation was adopted from 1969 to 2002, and second-treated effluents (reclaimed water) has been used thereafter. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were the most ubiquitously detected contaminant in wastewater and reclaimed water and are reported to be carcinogenic. Hence, we measured the concentrations of dissolved sixteen United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) priority PAHs in surface water and groundwater at the SRWIR to characterize their spatial and temporal variations, and to clarify the role of reclaimed water to natural water. The concentration of 16 individual PAHs in reclaimed water, rivers and groundwater varied from 339.4 to 636.2 ng/L, 359.1 to 3,435.0 ng/L and 216.5 to 488,205.2 ng/L, respectively. The lower aromatic rings of PAHs prevailed in aquatic environments rather than the higher ones. Thereinto, naphthalene was the predominant isomer within the highest concentration reached to 486,600 µg/L. The groundwater samples had higher PAHs concentrations at Tongzhou district which attributed to the higher vulnerability of aquifer. Additionally, strong correlations between PAHs and total nitrogen, nitrate, dissolved oxygen and electrical conductivity suggested those potential factors affecting the photo degradation and/or biodegradation of PAHs. The relationship identified between PAHs concentrations and physical and chemical indices would help us to enhance the understanding migration and transformation of PAHs spatially and temporally, enable us to assess the potential risks of the environmental pollutants to aquatic organisms and human water supplies.

Published: October 2020

Groundwater resources, unlike surface water, are more vulnerable to disturbances and contaminations, as they take a very long time and significant cost to recover. So, predictive modeling and prevention strategies can empower policymakers for efficient groundwater governance through informed decisions and recommendations. Due to the importance of groundwater quality modeling, the hardness susceptibility mapping using machine learning (ML) models has not been explored. For the first time, the current research aimed to predict groundwater hardness susceptibility using the ML models. The performance of two ensemble models of boosted regression trees (BRT) and random forest (RF) is investigated through the arrangement of a comparative study with multivariate discriminant analysis (MDA). According to the hardness values in 135 groundwater quality monitoring wells, the hard and soft water are determined; then, 11 predictor variables including distance from the sea (DFS), land use, elevation, distance from the river (DFR), depth to groundwater (DTGW), pH, precipitation (PCP), evaporation (E), groundwater level (GWL), curvature, and lithology are used for predicting the groundwater hardness susceptibility map. Results indicated that the variables of DFR, DTGW, elevation, and DFS had a higher contribution to the modeling process. So, the high harness areas are mostly related to low elevations, low DTGW, and proximity to river and sea, which facilitate the percolation conditions for minerals containing calcium or magnesium into groundwater.
Enhanced Treatment of Pharmaceutical Wastewater by an Improved A2/O Process with Ozone Mixed Municipal Wastewater
Authors: Wang Jian , Du Cong , Qian Feng , Song Yonghui , Xiang Liancheng
Published: October 2020

A pilot-scale experiment is carried out for treating mixed wastewater containing pharmaceutical wastewater (PW) and domestic wastewater (DW), by a process that is a combination of hydrolysis acidification-ozone-modified anaerobic–anoxic–aerobic-ozone (A2/O) (pre-ozone) or hydrolysis acidification-modified A2/O-ozone (post-ozone). The effects of different mixing ratios of PW and DW and pre-ozone treatment or post-ozone treatment on the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus and chemical oxygen demand (COD) are compared and studied. The optimal ratio of PW in mixing wastewater is 30%, which has the optimal COD removal efficiency and minimum biotoxicity to biological treatment. The pre-ozone treatment shows more advantages in removing nitrogen and phosphate but the post-ozone treatment shows more advantages in COD removal. Analysis of dissolved organic matter (DOM) demonstrates that post-ozone treatment has a more significant effect on the removal of fulvic acid and humic acid than the effect from the pre-ozone treatment, so the COD removal is better. Overall DOM degradation efficiency by post-ozone treatment is 55%, which is much higher than the pre-ozone treatment efficiency of 38%. Microbial community analysis reveals that the genus Thauera and the genus Parasegetibacter take great responsibility for the degradation of phenolics in this process. All the results show that the post-ozone treatment is more efficient for the mixed wastewater treatment in refractory organics removal.

Arithmetic subgroups are an important source of discrete groups acting freely on manifolds. We need to know that there exist many torsion-free 푺푺L(ퟐퟐ,ℝ) is an “arithmetic” subgroup of 푺푺L(ퟐퟐ,ℝ). The other arithmetic subgroups are not as obvious, but they can be constructed by using quaternion algebras. Replacing the quaternion algebras with larger division algebras yields many arithmetic subgroups of 푺푺L(풏풏,ℝ), with 풏풏>2. In fact, a calculation of group cohomology shows that the only other way to construct arithmetic subgroups of 푺푺L(풏풏, ℝ) is by using arithmetic groups. In this paper justifies Commensurable groups, and some definitions and examples,ℝ-forms of classical simple groups over ℂ, calculating the complexification of each classical group, Applications to manifolds. Let us start with 푺푺푺푺(푛푛,ℂ). This is already a complex Lie group, but we can think of it as a real Lie group of twice the dimension. As such, it has a complexification.

Authors: Margaret Divya A , Devi Nandhini
Published: October 2020

India is one of the largest countries in terms of geographical size, which requires efficient means for long-distance transportation. Public transport, being the primary mode of transport, remains a powerful yardstick to measure the overall development of a nation. Among the various modes of transport, Railways are one of the biggest modes of passenger transport in the world. The Railway passenger services face long term competitive threats from airlines, luxury buses, personalized transport, and improved public transport. To compete with other modes of transport, it is inevitable for railways to accelerate the growth of passenger’s origination. It is essential for the railway authorities to know the opinion of the passengers regarding the services offered to them to make future policies and provisions. Having this drive in mind, the researchers have undertaken a study about the services provided by the Indian Railways along with its objectives to analyze the passengers’ preferences, satisfaction, limitations, and perceptions towards the same. Every aspect related to railway services like ticket availability, quality of travel, employee behavior, safety, timing, and other relevant aspects is analyzed at different levels of the research. As passenger satisfaction is chosen to be the concept for this research, elements that allow passengers to feel satisfied with offered services are also mentioned in the theoretical part. The scope of this project is limited to passengers of Madurai city.

Political and Social Status of Women in Pre and Post Independent India
Authors: Sudalai Moni T
Published: October 2020

Women’s involvement in socio-political life is a desideratum for the progress of not only the women folk but also the development of the nation as a whole. During ancient and medieval times, women from orthodox families actively participated in social activities, but their overall position and status gradually deteriorated. The Modern era meant for women ushered in during the dawn of the 19th century when social reformers paid special attention to enhance the social status of women. For instance, the promulgation of the Widow Remarriage Act, implementation of the Civil Marriage Act 1872 mentions a few of them. Ever since the formation of the Indian National Congress, several remarkable changes took place in the socio-political status.Moreover, women franchise induced their effective participation in the Freedom Movement of India. They were accorded equal political status on par with men only after independence, which has been enshrined and enumerated in the provisions of fundamental rights of the Indian constitution. In the new millennium, there has been constant demand to accord 33 percentages of reservations to enhance the status of women in the political arena as well as to increase their social statues. This paper attempts to indicate the socio-political status of women over the period in the Indian context during the Pre and Post Independent India.
Hope in Hopelessness: Appreciating “Waiting” as an Essential Device in Selected Plays of Beckett and Ahmad
Authors: M Mahbub Rahman , Parvin Shahnaj
Published: October 2020

This paper aims to explore and appreciate “waiting” as an essential device in selected plays of Beckett and Ahmad. They defy traditions and conventions of plays by inventing their own innovative and individualistic manner of manipulating structural patterns to shape the Absurd dramas. This paper focuses on the incessant incidence of the “waiting” in Beckett’s Waiting for Godot and Ahmad’s The Thing, and analyzes how important this waiting matters to the characters. The essential device of ‘waiting for’ and the open possibility of a change is what keeps hope alive. Through the journey of the characters, the playwrights focus on how man can confront and survive against the hostility of surroundings through ‘waiting.’ This is narrative research that follows descriptive-cum analytical method, and the textual references are given as evidence to support theargument of this study. It is found that the reality of the situation in which the absurd character appears is a psychological reality expressed in images that are the outward projection of states of their mind. That is why the Theatre of the Absurd can be considered an image of the human being’s inner world. It presents a truer picture of reality itself, reality as grasped by an individual that helps the characters as well as the audience to comprehend the harsh reality that life is full of qualms through their absurd conditions.
Situation of Beekeeping in North Africa
Authors: BEN ABDELKADER Faten
Published: October 2020

North Africa is a Mediterranean climatic zone characterized by mild winters and hot and dry summers. The flora of this region is similar to that of south Spain and Italy. Apis mellifera intermissa is indigenous subspecies found in Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco. In Egypt, the indigenous subspecis is Apis mellifera lamarckii. The two subspecies are characterized by great adaptability to climatic conditions and by a marked cleaning behavior. Among hive products, honey is the most common in these countrie’s cultures. However, the number of hives and the honey production remain low compared to the rest of the world and beekeeping is facing many threats such as diseases mainly represented by the varroa, poisoning by insecticides, as well as ecosystem degradation and climate change. All these factors threaten the local bee and influence negatively the production of honey and the colony development.
Targeting CoV-2 Spike RBD: ACE-II complex with phenolic compounds from Cistus (Cistus L.) Bee Pollen for COVID-19 treatment by Molecular Docking Study
Authors: GÜLER Halil İbrahim , KARA Yakup
Published: October 2020

Spike glycoprotein on the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 is a class I fusion protein that plays a role in the initial attachment of the virus to the human ACE-II receptor. ACE-II has been implicated in the regulation of heart function and also as a functional receptor for the coronavirus that causes the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). In the present study, a molecular docking study was performed using eleven flavonoids present in Cistus bee pollen against the CoV-2 Spike RBD/ACE-II complex and compared their affinity with the FDA approved drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).
Binding constants of eleven flavonoids, catechin, pinocembrin, chrysin, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, p-OH Benzoic acid, syringic acid, t-cinnamic acid, p-Coumaric acid, rutin, ferulic acid and gallic acid were measured using the AutoDock 4.2 molecular docking software. Also, these binding constants were then compared to the reference molecule of hydroxychloroquine.
According to docking analysis, the results showed us that catechin has the best inhibiton potential among the all analyzed molecules with the high binding energy (-7.77 kcal/mol) and the lowest Ki (2.03 µM) and it is followed by pinocembrin, chrysin, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, respectively. Besides, the reference molecule hydroxychloroquine has binding energy of -7.53 kcal/mol and 3.04 µM. Consequently, high potential of flavonoids in extracts of Cistus bee pollen to interact with CoV-2 Spike RBD/ACE-II complex indicates that this natural product has high potential for Covid-19 treatment, but this needs to be supported by further studies

Published: October 2020

A grave dated to the Middle Bronze Age with two burials in stone chambers represents a unique find in Moravia. The grave was the solitary feature from the given period at the excavation site, without any barrow identified. Part of the stone used for the construction is querns from a 40 km distant source, most of the structure is made of local limestone. Both burials – a child and an adult – were deposited simultaneously and furnished with personal jewellery and grave goods. Organic residues and use-wear traces were recorded on bronze artefacts. The grave inventory also includes a stone axe from uncommon stone material – eclogite. Based on a typological analysis and a series of radiocarbon dates, the entire unit is dated to the middle stage of the Tumulus culture, at the turn of the 15th and 14th century BC. The preservation of anthropological material, the exclusive interior construction, the furnishing of both burials and modern documentation represent an exceptional data source for the knowledge of the Middle Bronze Age society and its burial practices.

Assessments of Nipa Forest Using Landsat Imagery Enhanced with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Photography
Authors: Piekkoontod Tantus , Pachana Bhumiphat , Hrimpeng Karnjana , Charoenjit Kitsanai
Published: October 2020

Nipa palms are exposed by the transformation of land use and land cover changes (LULCC) due to changes to aquaculture and orchards. Modern remote sensing for environmental monitoring of LULCC has been made easier by the use of high spatial resolution images, innovative image processing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The expense of high-resolution satellite imagery has resulted in investigators moving to open sources (e.g., Landsat), therefore, the interpretation of images at a medium resolution can be classified simply as LULCC classes and are constrained by the detection of small-scale disturbances. This research applied Landsat imagery with very high-resolution imagery from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In order to be useful for real-world applications, the accuracy of remote sensing data must be validated using proven ground-based methods. UAVs equipped with multispectral sensors were flown over the Nipa palms at the Prasae River, Rayong Province, Thailand. The main advantage of UAV-based remote sensing is that it reduces costs and immediate availability of high-resolution data. The UAV imagery was expensed as “drone truthing data” to train image classification algorithms. These results show that UAV data can be used effectively to support and categorize similar land-cover/use classes (aquaculture vs. mangrove forest vs. nipa forest) with consistently high identification of over 87.6% on the generated thematic map, where the mangrove forest detection rate was as high as 86%. For that reason, UAVs are engaged successively in management and conservation tasks, which can be used for regional or local scale studies to compare the achieved accuracy to a general regional land cover map. This approach can be used for the variability of plants to rectify land-cover classification. Therefore, UAV images are a very useful tool to fill the gap between remote sensing information and expensive ground field campaigns.
ANALISYS OF THE INFLUENCE OF GLUE JOINTS ON THE MEASUREMENT OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS USING FIBER BRAGG GRATING
Authors: Zieliński Tomasz , Zychowicz Łukasz
Published: October 2020

The research presents the analysis of the influence of the glue connection on the measurement of elongation of stainless steel and aluminum samples by means of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) with uniform fibers used as a measuring transducer. Research indicates two possible factors affecting the deformation of the transmission spectrum obtained during elongation measurement. One of them is the type of adhesive that is used to make the connection between the fiber Bragg grating and the tested sample. The second possible factor is method of connection's execution. The need for research on glue connection resulted from the formation of defects mainly in the form of numerous side bands visible in the transmission spectrum during the measurement of elongations. The test results were presented in the form of graphs obtained on the basis of transmission characteristic.

Tabulou-se 306 documentos diante os períodos 2011 á 2020, com uma prevalência para o ano de 2018 (25,2%), tendo um aumento diagnosticado entre os anos de 2014 a 2015 (7,9 %) e diminuição progressiva de notificações de 2018 e 2019 (5%). Em primeira posição, destacou-se erro de dieta, falha de isolamento, falta de suprimentos, falta de comunicação e refeição de paciente e funcionários. As notificações hospitalares, recebidas de maneira espontânea e anônima, são uma importante fonte de informação e evidenciam a grandeza do problema relacionado aos incidentes e conformidades gerados pelo serviço de nutrição.
Experiência e história na pesquisa em artes
Authors: Bolognesi Mário
Published: October 2020

Um objeto de pesquisa se delimita a partir dos parâmetros de tempo e espaço. O tempo direciona imediatamente a investigação para a história, tanto do objeto em si, como do conhecimento, a seu respeito, acumulado. O espaço o insere nas correlações simbólicas e, portanto, culturais e sociais. Com isso, objeto de investigação e sujeito conhecedor e/ou produtor se aproximam, uma vez que o resultado do trabalho (artístico e de investigação) está diretamente inscrito no âmbito das práticas simbólicas. A experiência, a prática e o conhecimento empírico do pesquisador apresentam-se, então, como elementos diferenciadores para a pesquisa em artes. Como ilustração o conto La Busca de Averroes, de Jorge Luis Borges.Palavras-chave: pesquisa científica e pesquisa em artes; conhecimento em artes; experiência na pesquisa em artes.
Pesquisa, experimentação e criação em teatro no século XX
Authors: De Marinis Marco
Published: October 2020

O surgimento das vanguardas artísticas no século XIX afetou as velhas convenções e transformou os artistas em experimentadores e também em pesquisadores, no sentido científico do termo. Porém, o fato de ser um experimentador não torna o artista necessariamente um pesquisador. No domínio teatral podemos estabelecer uma distinção entre os dois: 1) Artistas experimentadores testando novos meios de expressão (Jarry, Artaud, Kantor, Carmelo Bene e Brook); 2) Artistas pesquisadores buscando novos princípios, formas, linguagens e conhecimentos (Appia, Puchs, Craig, Stanislavski, Meyerhold, Copeau, Osterwa, Decroux, entre outros). No último caso a pesquisa ocupa lugar privilegiado, onde encenadores-pedagogos dedicam a ela um tempo antes não concedido, transformando, assim, a escola num espaço também dedicado à experimentação e à pesquisa, num processo capaz de modificar os próprios pesquisadores. A análise dos exemplos de laboratório teatral de Decroux, Grotowski e Barba esclarecem noções de progresso, desenvolvimento, descoberta e demonstração na pesquisa em arte, particularmente no teatro.Palavras-chave: artista experimentador; artista pesquisador; laboratório teatral
Recriar sempre
Authors: Ferracini Renato , Alves Rabelo Antonio Flávio
Published: October 2020

Ao tomar como foco o trabalho do ator, este ensaio busca responder a uma pergunta simples: onde e quando se recria em um espetáculo que está há muitos anos em cartaz? Há criação depois de centenas de apresentações? Para problematizar essas questões, pensaremos com o espetáculo Café com Queijo, do LUME, e com as atrizes desse espetáculo, Ana Cristina Colla e Raquel Scotti Hirson.Palavras-Chave: Recriação, Ação Física, Invisibilidade.

Wolfgang RIHM – Dionysos: uma escrita dos espaços interiores
Authors: Stoianova Ivanka
Published: October 2020

A “fantasia operística” Dionysos – cenas e ditirambos a partir de textos de Friedrich Nietzche” para solistas coro e orquestra – do compositor alemão Wolfgang Rihm (1953) é uma obra operística não narrativa: uma anti-narrativa aberta de música-teatro em múltiplas dimensões, constituída de cenas e ditirambos em quatro planos ou “lugares”. As cenas musicais abertas remetem aos momentos importantes da vida de F. Nietzsche (sem narrar uma história) e acima de tudo às idéias universais de sua filosofia.O processo composicional – Rihm escreve simultaneamente a música, o texto e os quadros cênicos – é uma invenção contínua da linguagem musical múltipla e plurivalente, sem um texto preliminar a ser musicado e sem a composição musical como acompanhamento de uma dramaturgia cênica. O texto utilizado é uma composição livre de Rihm a patir de fragmentos provenientes de diversos textos de Nietzsche.Se as cenas ou quadros da “fantasia operística” são “os recipientes” (Rihm) de desdobramentos músico-cênicos múltiplos, os personagens são espaços flexíveis, moventes, variáveis, com papéis plurais em permanente transformação. As fronteiras entre os personagens – assim como as fronteiras entre os textos, os estilos, as situações cênicas – se tornaram permeáveis e fluidas, e mesmo assim reconhece-se facilmente os papéis principais que preservam sua integridade reconhecível em todas as situações.Os processos da composição vegetativa, de integração metabólica das citações com suas remissões a estilos e épocas distanciadas, assim como as metáforas imagéticas do domínio da botânica que Rihm frequentemente emprega, confirmam sua filiação à grande tradição ocidental, sempre em busca de uma unidade orgânica da obra-total, e isto apesar das livres associações no movimento do pensamento. Lançando mão unicamente de textos provenientes das obras de Nietzsche e sendo fortemente influenciado pelo pensamento do filósofo, Rihm propõe uma interpretação músico-cênica inovadora do fenômeno Nietzsche, que permanece inevitavelmente marcada pela grande tradição cristã ocidental.Tradução do francês: Guilherme Sauerbronn

Teatro como campo expandido: a imagem em Gilles Deleuze e Hans-Thies Lehmann.
Authors: Fabbrini Ricardo Nascimento
Published: October 2020

Este texto caracteriza o “teatro da dramaturgia visual”, de Hans-Thies Lehmann, ou teatro como campo expandido, pela incorporação de diversas mídias. Recorremos à crítica de Gilles Deleuze aos “ardis da representação” e à “diferença ontológica entre modelo e cópia”, ressaltando que esse teatro se opõe à imagem-representação do teatro dramático e do cinema clássico, assim como à imagem-simulacro do mundo mass-midiático. Recorremos, ainda, aos comentários de Anne Sauvagnargues à noção deleuzeana de “imagem-individuação”, baseadas nas modulações de longitude e de latitude. Procuramos mostrar que esse teatro expandido é o lugar, por excelência, para o desenvolvimento do drama da percepção, questão que está no centro da reflexão estética contemporânea. Na confluência das linguagens, de signos de luz e do corpo do ator, teríamos uma imagem que efetua uma crítica às imagens circulantes, ou uma forma que “afeta a sensação e força o pensamento”, no sentido de Gilles Deleuze.
Teatro e robótica: os androides de Hiroshi Ishiguro, em encenações de Oriza Hirata
Authors: Pluta Izabella
Published: October 2020

Este artigo analisa o percurso teatral dos androides, em especial Geminoide F, projetado pelo engenheiro de robótica Hiroshi Ishiguro em seu laboratório ATR, em Osaka, e utilizado em cena pelo diretor e dramaturgo Oriza Hirata. Esse geminoide engana o olhar em razão da similitude de sua pele com aquela do ser humano, além de sua expressão facial dotada de movimentos de lábios e de piscar de pálpebras. Na verdade, o Geminoide F é uma arquitetura eletrônica extremamente avançada, constituindo o ponto culminante, até o momento, das pesquisas desenvolvidas pelo professor Ishiguro e sua equipe. O robô é também objeto do projeto Android-Human Theatre, concebido por Oriza Hirata, que visa integrar o Geminoide F em uma performance ao vivo e colocá-lo em uma situação de jogo ao lado de atores profissionais. Hirata encena Sayonara, As três irmãs versão Android e Metamorfoses versão android, interrogando, assim, a figura do ator e o processo de criação.

Katherine Dunham and Maya Deren on ritual, modernity, and the African Diaspora
Authors: Burt Ramsay
Published: October 2020

In the early 1940s, Katherine Dunham engaged the future experimental film-maker Maya Deren to act as her secretary. In 1946 Deren wrote about the importance of ritual in her films, two of which had been made with dancers from Dunham’s company. The following year she made her first visit to Haiti to study and film voodoo rituals that had been the subject of Miss Dunham’s research. These rituals was then generally seen as a survival from a more ‘primitive’ stage of human development that modern educated people, like Dunham and Deren, were not supposed to believe in. This paper shows that Dunham and Deren each used their experiences of voodoo to define a modern approach to spirituality that was grounded in an Africanist approach to the dancing body that was very different from the idea of disembodied transcendence which runs through the European philosophical tradition.
“... Foda!”: a bossa das palavras, música e imagens de Caetano Veloso
Authors: Borém Fausto
Published: October 2020

Estudo sobre o trinômio texto-música-imagem no videoclipe A Bossa Nova é foda do compositor, poeta e cantor Caetano Veloso, dirigido por Fernando Young e Tonho Quinta-feira (VELOSO, BANDA CÊ, YOUNG e QUINTA-FEIRA, 2013), a partir de referenciais analíticos multidisciplinares: [1] a interação entre as linguagens verbais, sonoras e imagéticas na compreensão e comunicação de significados (PEIRCE, 2005; SANTAELLA, 2005; PLAZA, 2003); [2] os conceitos de Segmentação, Contorno de Ativação, Cinemática, Dinâmica e Pontos de Sincronização em movimentos de dança (HAGA, 2008, adaptados à análise de vídeos de música por BORÉM, 2014, BORÉM, 2016); [3] o reconhecimento de emoções e sensações na linguagem corporal, especialmente nas expressões faciais (emoções básicas, EKMAN e FRIESEN, 2003). Os resultados mostram que a intrincada codificação na letra da música apresenta grande correspondência com ambos os sons da gravação de áudio e o videoclipe. Mais do que isso, a integração entre estas três instâncias de comunicação – palavras, sons e imagens – forma um complexo e sofisticado mosaico com grande unidade estrutural nos níveis locais, médios e global da obra, permitindo tanto uma leitura e fruição imediatas quanto uma compreensão analítica mais aprofundada.
A memória gruda na pele ou a dança madura do corpo
Authors: Vieira Marcilio de Souza
Published: October 2020

Trata-se de uma reflexão a partir do corpo maduro que dança como um ato de potência que amplia suas experiências de movimento e texturas de dança. O texto objetiva refletir sobre os corpos amadurecidos na dança e para materializá-lo partiu-se da pesquisa qualitativa sob o viés da análise do discurso. O corpo na dança, independentemente de sua linguagem também envelhece. Para esses bailarinos/dançarinos a dança na maturidade valoriza as qualidades pessoais de cada artista, o virtuosismo técnico dá lugar ao trabalho do corpo como um todo e este é reinventado a cada movimento poético que é ético e estético. Esse corpo amadurecido por via da idade procura outra forma de dançar em que está presente o repouso e a lentidão.
