Os Circos Contemporâneos como Heterotopias Organizacionais: Uma Etnografia Multissituada no Contexto Brasil-Canadá
Authors: Oliveira Josiane Silva de , Cavedon Neusa Rolita
Published: April 2017

Resumo Neste artigo buscamos entender os circos contemporâneos desde a perspectiva das heterotopias organizacionais. Realizamos uma aproximação teórica entre Estudos Baseados em Práticas nos Estudos Organizacionais e o conceito de heterotopias desenvolvido por Michel Foucault. A partir de uma etnografia multissituada focada nos processos organizativos do circo contemporâneo no Brasil e no Canadá, identificamos conjuntos de práticas organizativas que alteraram as relações de forças no campo das artes nos contextos estudados, resultando na produção de outros espaços - ou heterotopias, de acordo com Michel Foucault - na sociedade que possibilitaram os circos se constituírem como organizações. Como contribuição teórica, apresentamos o conceito de heterotopias organizacionais para as análises de organizações que se constituem com base em multiplicidade socioespaciais. A contribuição metodológica do artigo é a apresentação da etnografia multissituada como estratégia de pesquisa de estudos dos processos organizacionais estabelecidos em diferentes contextos culturais e localidades.

Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT Sugarcane management practices (unburned cane - UC and burned cane - BC) interfere with dynamics of soil magnetic properties. This study focused on determining the potential of magnetic susceptibility as soil quality indicator in areas under sugarcane cultivation. The experiment area is on the limit between basalt from São Bento Group, Serra Geral Formation, and sandstone from Bauru Group - Adamantina Formation. Twenty soil samples were collected from two management areas (burned and unburned sugarcane prior to harvest) at a depth range of 0.0-0.2 m. Local soil was classified as eutroferric Red Latosol (Oxisol), with highly clayey texture. Chemical and physical properties, CO2 emissions and magnetic susceptibility (MS) in air-dried fine earth (MSADFE), total sand fraction (MSTS) and clay fraction (MSCF). The magnetic signature from MS was effective in identifying changes of physical, chemical and mineralogical traits in Latosols under burned and unburned sugarcane crop. The information provided here can guide further studies on the genesis of minerals with magnetic expression in environments and exposed to fire burning.

Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT Demarcating soil management zones can be useful, for instance, delimiting homogeneous areas and selecting attributes that are generally correlated with plant productivity, but doing so involves several different steps. The objective of this study was to identify the chemical and physical attributes of soil and soybean plants that explain crop productivity, in addition to suggesting and testing a methodological procedure for defining soil management zones. The procedure consisted of six steps: sample collection, data filtering, variable selection, interpolation, grouping, and evaluation of management zones. The samples were collected in an experimental area of 12.5 ha cultivated with soybean during the 2013/14 crop in Dystrophic Red Latosol, in Mato Grosso, Brazil. A total of 117 pairs of plant and soil samples were collected. Student’s t-test was used (α = 0.02) to verify that the number of samples was adequate for correlation analysis. Results showed that only the P and Mn content in the grains explained (based on R2 values) the variation in soybean grain productivity the area. Based on the interpolation of these contents by ordinary kriging, the fuzzy C-means algorithm was used to separate them into groups by similarity. Division into two groups was the best option, which could be differentiated by Mann-Whitney test (P < 0.05), resulting in a map with 10 management zones.

Authors: Garcia Carlos Henrique , Dedecca Claudio Salvadori
Published: April 2017

Resumo Este artigo tem por objetivo examinar a situação recente da filiação sindical dos trabalhadores no Brasil a partir da constatação de que o quadro da sindicalização pouco se alterou nos anos 2000, apesar dos movimentos de queda do desemprego e aumento do emprego formal no mercado de trabalho. Ao procurar explicar as causas da estabilidade das taxas de sindicalização durante a última década, a análise tem como principais eixos analíticos a forte segmentação do mercado de trabalho e a desigualdade socioeconômica, notadamente no que tange ao processo incompleto de assalariamento, à heterogeneidade da condição de inserção ocupacional e à regulamentação parcial das relações de trabalho. Baseado em levantamento de dados nacional, este trabalho discute as perspectivas para a representação sindical no futuro próximo.
Temperature Surface of Guaíba Lake, RS, from time series of MODIS images
Authors: Luz Glenio Antonio da , Guasselli Laurindo Antonio , Rocha Daniela
Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT The Guaíba lake is located in an area of complex weather variation and is influenced by many atmospheric circulation systems, bringing about violent occluded fronts, and, sometimes, intense precipitation. In Rio Grande do Sul, during El Niño, air temperatures and the precipitation index are higher, contrary to La Niña. Moreover, the Guaíba Lake receives water from the Guaíba's Hydrographical Region, which corresponds to 1/3 of Rio Grande do Sul State, and is thus an important water body to the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre. Methods that seek to understand the behavior of Guaíba lake surface water temperature (LSWT) may lead to relevant information to identify periods of more or less water warming, as well as the relations between LSWT, water quality deterioration and risks to human health. This paper aims to comprehend the behavior of Guaíba LSWT during periods of climatic anomalies (El Niño/La Niña). Therefore, 418 sea surface temperature (SST) images from the MODIS sensor were processed with SeaDas 7.2 software. The quarterly averages of LSWT were obtained and compared to the climatological anomalies in Equatorial Pacific Ocean. LSWT behavior is more complex in El Niño/La Niña periods. The results show that during climatic abnormality periods there are no direct relationship between the warming/cooling of Guaíba LSWT and the warming/cooling of Equatorial Pacific Ocean’s SST. The precipitation indices were more significant to the behavior of LSWT during El Niño periods, but for all periods (of climatic normality and abnormality), air temperature is what most influences LSWT. This relation occurs with climatic factors of water retention time, water entry and precipitation, and air temperature. There is a major correspondence during La Niña periods with the cooling of Guaíba LSWT only for some years. On the other hand, during El Niño periods there are no correspondences of this phenomenon with the warming of Guaíba LSWT. There are only more intense oscillations in surface temperatures than during regular and La Niña periods, but with a tendency to LSWT warming.

Published: April 2017

Resumo A partir de uma análise crítica sobre os atuais modelos de atenção à saúde para idosos, este artigo apresenta uma proposta de linha do cuidado para este segmento etário, tendo como foco a promoção e a prevenção da saúde, de modo a evitar a sobrecarga do sistema de saúde. Enfatiza-se o setor suplementar, pois como um quarto da população utiliza este sistema, uma discussão mais minuciosa se faz necessária. O conhecimento científico já identificou corretamente os fatores de risco para a população idosa, mas isso não basta. É prioritário utilizar esse conhecimento para efetuar a necessária transição do modelo assistencial clínico para o preventivo. Este precisa se configurar como um fluxo de ações de educação, promoção da saúde, prevenção de doenças evitáveis, postergação de moléstias, cuidado precoce e reabilitação de agravos. Não se nega a importância das instâncias pesadas (hospital, instituições de longa permanência, entre outras), mas estamos particularmente preocupados com uma abordagem contemporânea, que cuide de forma adequada o idoso e diminua custos. Se não for deste modo, o sistema se torna inviável.

Resumo: O Sistema Nacional de Avaliação do Ensino Superior tem como objetivo acompanhar os cursos de graduação, permitindo que adequações sejam realizadas, sendo um de seus componentes o Exame Nacional de Desempenho do Estudante (ENADE). O objetivo do estudo foi comparar as questões ¬das provas dos ENADE 2004 e 2010 com os conteúdos das disciplinas do Curso de Odontologia da UFRN a partir da percepção de alunos concluintes e professores. Para consolidação das respostas as disciplinas foram identificadas a partir dos conteúdos previstos nas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais classificados em ciências básicas, saúde coletiva, propedêutica clínica e clínica odontológica. Observou-se desarticulação entre ciclo básico e ciclo profissionalizante, uma vez que os alunos sinalizaram nas respostas que não há coerência entre a extensa carga horária das disciplinas básicas e os conteúdos abordados sobre estas no ENADE. Uma das limitações para avanço nesta articulação é o isolamento destas disciplinas em Departamentos e Centros de Ciências sem articulação, os quais contribuem para a fragmentação do ensino em disciplinas isoladas e descontextualizadas, situação presente em várias instituições de ensino superior no Brasil. Para transformação desta situação é fundamental a autoavaliação constante que viabilize empoderamento aos atores diretamente envolvidos e interessados em um ensino superior de qualidade.

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the frequency of anxiety and depression and their association with clinical features of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Methods This is a cross-sectional and descriptive study including a consecutive series of patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis according to Awaji’s criteria. Patients underwent clinical and psychiatric assessment (anxiety and depression symptoms). Results We included 76 patients. The men/women ratio was 1.6:1. Participants’ mean age at disease onset was 55 years (SD±12.1). Sixty-six patients (86.8%) were able to complete psychiatric evaluation. Clinically significant anxiety was found in 23 patients (34.8%) while clinically significant depression was found in 24 patients (36.4%). When we compared patients with and without depression a significant difference was seen only in the frequency of anxiety symptoms (p<0.001). We did further analysis comparing subgroups of patients classified according to the presence or not of anxiety and or depression, without any significant difference regarding sex, age at onset, initial form, disease duration or functional measures. A positive correlation between anxiety and depressive symptoms was found (p<0.001). Conclusion Anxiety and depressive symptoms were highly correlated and frequent in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In addition, anxiety and depression were not associated with disease duration and presentation, sex, age at onset, and functional score.

The Impact of Ultra-widefield Retinal Imaging on Practice Efficiency
Authors: Tornambe Paul E ,   Retina Consultants, San Diego, California, US, and San Diego Retina Research Foundation, San Diego, California, US
Published: April 2017

I n the current cost- and resource-constrained healthcare environment in the United States, characterized by declining government reimbursement and increased utilization scrutiny by managed care plans, providers are challenged to continue delivering quality care to more patients while also more effectively managing practice economics. Employing technology to improve practice efficiency is one of the most promising solutions to this dilemma. We have demonstrated that the integration of ultra-widefield (UWF) retinal imaging in our practice is cost-effective. It has allowed us to increase the number of patient encounters while simultaneously raising the quality of care, and increasing patient satisfaction.

Published: April 2017

Comprehensive evaluation of retinal health prior to and following cataract surgery is critical to supporting optimal outcomes. In addition to the importance of identifying retinal pathology that may prevent or delay cataract surgery, continuous advances in refractive intraocular lens technology and cataract surgical technique, coupled with increasingly high expectations regarding visual outcomes among younger patients, make the consideration of long-term quality of vision paramount in the cataract assessment. Optos® ultrawidefield retinal imaging supports this clinical objective by providing imaging standardization in a streamlined, patient-friendly exam process, supporting robust documentation that facilitates mapping of disease progression, and offering potential economic advantages in a resourceconstrained environment.
Derecho penal del enemigo, excepción política y securitización: contracaras de la seguridad

Published: April 2017

El artículo se propone revisar los dispositivos políticos, jurídicos y sociales que están detrás de la imposición de determinados parámetros de seguridad preponderantes a nivel internacional. La seguridad es percibida como el bien principal para las relaciones sociales nacionales y globales y, por tanto, tienden a validarse mecanismos que van en detrimento de un conjunto de libertades y derechos garantizados, por principio, en regímenes democráticos, en nombre de aquel bien.

El objetivo es analizar críticamente las conceptualizaciones y los debates de tres dispositivos: *derecho penal del enemigo, excepcionalidad política* y *securitización*, cuyas legitimaciones se esconden tras imperativos “securitarios”.

Addressing minority health and health disparities has been a missing piece of the puzzle in Big Data science. This article focuses on three priority opportunities that Big Data science may offer to the reduction of health and health care disparities. One opportunity is to incorporate standardized information on demographic and social determinants in electronic health records in order to target ways to improve quality of care for the most disadvantaged popula­tions over time. A second opportunity is to enhance public health surveillance by linking geographical variables and social determinants of health for geographically defined populations to clinical data and health outcomes. Third and most impor­tantly, Big Data science may lead to a better understanding of the etiology of health disparities and understanding of minority health in order to guide intervention devel­opment. However, the promise of Big Data needs to be considered in light of significant challenges that threaten to widen health dis­parities. Care must be taken to incorporate diverse populations to realize the potential benefits. Specific recommendations include investing in data collection on small sample populations, building a diverse workforce pipeline for data science, actively seeking to reduce digital divides, developing novel ways to assure digital data privacy for small populations, and promoting widespread data sharing to benefit under-resourced minority-serving institutions and minority researchers. With deliberate efforts, Big Data presents a dramatic opportunity for re­ducing health disparities but without active engagement, it risks further widening them.

Non-Equilibrium Phase Behavior of Hydrocarbons in Compositional Simulations and Upscaling
Authors: Indrupskiy Ilya M. , Lobanova Olga A. , Zubov Vadim R.
Published: April 2017

Numerical models widely used for hydrocarbon phase behavior and compositional flow simulations are based on assumption of thermodynamic equilibrium. However, it is not uncommon for oil and gas-condensate reservoirs to exhibit essentially non-equilibrium phase behavior, e.g., in the processes of secondary recovery after pressure depletion below saturation pressure, or during gas injection, or for condensate evaporation at low pressures. In many cases the ability to match field data with equilibrium model depends on simulation scale. The only method to account for non-equilibrium phase behavior adopted by the majority of flow simulators is the option of limited rate of gas dissolution (condensate evaporation) in black oil models. For compositional simulations no practical yet thermodynamically consistent method has been presented so far except for some upscaling techniques in gas injection problems. Previously reported academic non-equilibrium formulations have a common drawback of doubling the number of flow equations and unknowns compared to the equilibrium formulation. In the paper a unified thermodynamically-consistent formulation for compositional flow simulations with non-equilibrium phase behavior model is presented. Same formulation and a special scale-up technique can be used for upscaling of an equilibrium or non-equilibrium model to a coarse-scale non-equilibrium model. A number of test cases for real oil and gas-condensate mixtures are given. Model implementation specifics in a flow simulator are discussed and illustrated with test simulations. A non-equilibrium constant volume depletion algorithm is presented to simulate condensate recovery at low pressures in gas-condensate reservoirs. Results of satisfactory model matching to field data are reported and discussed.

[abstFig src='/00290002/11.jpg' width='300' text='User-assisted pick and place task' ] Despite remarkable progress of service robotics in recent years, it seems that a fully autonomous robot which would be able to solve everyday household tasks in a safe and reliable manner is still unachievable. Under certain circumstances, a robot’s abilities might be supported by a remote operator. In order to allow such support, we present a user interface for a semi-autonomous assistive robot allowing a non-expert user to quickly asses the situation on a remote site and carry out subtasks which cannot be finished automatically. The user interface is based on a mixed reality 3D environment and fused sensor data, which provides a high level of situational and spatial awareness for teleoperation as well as for telemanipulation. Robot control is based on low-cost commodity hardware, optionally including a 3D mouse and stereoscopic display. The user interface was developed in a human-centered design process and continuously improved based on the results of five evaluations with a total of 81 novice users.

[abstFig src='/00290002/13.jpg' width='300' text='Robotic arm operation system' ] This paper reports on a study on the intelligent cooperation control system with human operators. The remote operation of a robotic arm by a human operator is considered as a simplified resilient system. In the experiments, subjects operated a robotic arm to carry out a simple task, while observing it through a monitor. The display of the monitor suddenly disappeared, and the subject continued the task only by using auditory information. By analyzing the relationship between task performances and types of auditory information through a mathematico-statistical method, it was found that not only auditory information related to the position but also the auditory information to ideate the position of the robotic arm was effective for task completion.

Published: April 2017

Objectives. To assess the use of local measures of segregation for monitoring health inequities by local health departments.

Methods. We analyzed preterm birth and premature mortality (death before the age of 65 years) rates for Boston, Massachusetts, for 2010 to 2012, using the Index of Concentration at the Extremes (ICE) and the poverty rate at both the census tract and neighborhood level.

Results. For premature mortality at the census tract level, the rate ratios comparing the worst-off and best-off terciles were 1.58 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.36, 1.83) for the ICE for income, 1.66 (95% CI = 1.43, 1.93) for the ICE for race/ethnicity, and 1.63 (95% CI = 1.40, 1.90) for the ICE combining income and race/ethnicity, as compared with 1.47 (95% CI = 1.27, 1.71) for the poverty measure. Results for the ICE and poverty measures were more similar for preterm births than for premature mortality.

Conclusions. The ICE, a measure of social spatial polarization, may be useful for analyzing health inequities at the local level.

Public Health Implications. Local health departments in US cities can meaningfully use the ICE to monitor health inequities associated with racialized economic segregation.

Produktivitas lahan kering dapat ditingkatkan bila periode ketersediaan lengas tanah pada musim kering dapat diperpanjang. Hydraulic lift sebagai proses redistribusi air tanah dari lapisan bawah yang lebih lembab ke lapisan dangkal yang cepat mengering oleh aktivitas akar tanaman, merupakan aspek ekologis yang layak diperhitungkan dalam mengelola tata air di lahan kering. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengevaluasi kemampuan hydraulic lift tanaman jambu mete yang diindikasikan oleh nilai recovery lengas tanah harian (RLTH) pasca kehilangan lengas tanah oleh aktivitas evapotranspirasi pada siang hari. Penelitian dilakukan pada area terbuka berdampingan dengan blok koleksi jambu mete umur 20 tahun di Kebun Percobaan Cikampek, Jawa Barat. Penilaian RLTH dilakukan pada radius 1,0; 1,5; 2,0 dan 2,5 kali jari-jari kanopi dari pangkal jambu mete sebagai faktor perlakuan tunggal yang disusun dalam rancangan acak kelompok, enam ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai RLTH jambu mete selalu positif dan lebih besar dari 0,010 MPa sebagai nilai ambang minimal suatu tanaman dinyatakan memiliki kemampuan hydraulic lift. Nilai rata-rata RLTH pada kedalaman tanah 25-75 cm tidak berbeda nyata diantara posisi dari pangkal jambu mete, dan mencapai sekitar 0,25-0,28% (w/w) atau setara 0,043–0,048 MPa. Berdasarkan nilai RLTH, hasil perhitungan volumetrik penambahan air tanah harian pada blok jambu mete mencapai kisaran 0,26-1,35 l air m-2. Status lengas tanah terdeteksi masih berada pada kisaran 40-60% air tersedia, kecuali untuk perlakuan 1,0 kali jari-jari kanopi. Kesimpulan dari hasil penelitian ini adalah tanaman jambu mete terbukti memiliki kemampuan hydraulic lift, dan mengindikasikan turut berkontribusi memelihara kelengasan tanah pada musim kering.
Improving Genomic Prediction for Pre‐Harvest Sprouting Tolerance in Wheat by Weighting Large‐Effect Quantitative Trait Loci
Authors: Moore Jessica K. , Manmathan Harish K. , Anderson Victoria A. , Poland Jesse A. , Morris Craig F. , Haley Scott D.
Published: April 2017

Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is a major problem in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that occurs when grains in a mature spike germinate before harvest, resulting in reduced yield, quality, and grain sale price. Improving PHS tolerance is a challenge to wheat breeders because it is quantitatively inherited and tedious to score. Genomic selection (GS) is particularly useful for predicting phenotypes that are costly and time consuming to assess. In our study, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers obtained by genotyping‐by‐sequencing were used to identify significant marker trait associations and develop predictive models for PHS tolerance. A panel of 1118 breeding lines and cultivars (genotypes) representative of U.S. Great Plains hard winter wheat germplasm was scored for PHS tolerance over multiple years. A genomewide association approach was used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) among the individuals. Two primary factors were examined for their influence on model accuracy: the effect of including identified QTL and kernel color as fixed effects in the model and increasing marker number. Model accuracy did not improve with kernel color information, but weighting QTL increased predictive performance. Thus, the combination of marker‐assisted and genomic selection outperformed all other methods. Optimum marker number was reached at 4000 SNPs. Overall, model accuracies were promising (0.49 to 0.62) and confirm effectiveness of GS for predicting PHS tolerance in wheat.
Breeding Perennial Grain Crops Based on Wheat
Authors: Curwen‐McAdams Colin , Jones Stephen S.
Published: April 2017

Wild relatives offer a diversity of traits potentially useful in crop improvement. Identification of major genes for resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, in conjunction with targeted introgression, has introduced some of these traits into cultivated varieties. The difficulty of transferring complex traits, and associated linkage drag, has limited the ability of breeding programs to fully use important genetic variation. Wheat (Triticum L.) is an example of an important crop with large secondary and tertiary genepools of species capable of producing viable offspring by cross pollination. Wheat is annual, but most of the related species in the Triticeae Dumort tribe are perennials. An unknown number of genes control the perennial habit, although previous work has shown that it is a complex trait with quantitative expression. Lack of recombination between the parental genomes and complexity of the trait suggest another avenue for breeding: the addition of a genome. Multiple genera can hybridize with wheat, and some combinations produce stable amphiploids. The development of perennial grain and forage crops balancing the agronomics of wheat with the polycarpic habit of its relatives is promising. The approach is similar to Triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack ex A. Camus), where new crops are developed combining the desirable qualities of the parents. Through prebreeding of the wild relatives, application of insight into meiosis, and strategic use of known genes, it should be more efficient to breed perennial grain crops adapted to diverse production systems.

Abstract

This paper reveals the importance of the madrasah curriculum development through various contextual perspectives. Study of critical education occupies a position on a learner awareness efforts about the importance of continuity between theory and practice. Madrasah curriculum has a distinctive religions experienced difficulties in how religious subjects functioning integrative and relevant to the present conditions. Through literature review, it was found that the critical education can be used as an alternative in reconstructing the existing of madrasah curriculum. Critical education gives a basic framework and substantial how egalitarian, humanist education, and transformative it can be implemented. It is done with the four principles in the process of reconstruction of the madrasah’s curriculum, namely to minimize the gap between theory and practice in the sphere of organizing material, growing the awareness of educators and learners become critical educators and critical learners that achieved together, lead learners to realize the potential significantly, and the transmission of Islamic values through a hidden curriculum.

Eficiência de inseticidas durante o armazenamento de grãos de milho
Authors: ANTUNES Luidi Eric Guimarães , DIONELLO Rafael Gomes
Published: April 2017

O objetivo foi verificar a mortalidade de adultos de Sitophilus zeamais infestando grãos de milho tratados com diferentes inseticidas ao longo de 240 dias de armazenamento. Foram utilizados dois inseticidas, um piretróide líquido da marca Starion® 25 CE (Bifentrina) e outro organofosforado líquido da marca Actellic® (Pirimifós metílico), sendo as doses de 6 e 8 mL do produto, diluído em 2 litros de água, com aplicação de 2 mL da solução por quilo de grãos. Para o tratamento controle usou-se 2mL de água. Cada dosagem foi aplicada em três lotes de 1 kg, com uso de pulverizador uni-spray, com três repetições para cada tratamento, sendo avaliados em duplicata de 50 g, em delineamento inteiramente casualizado. A cada período de 30 dias após as aplicações, ocorreram as infestações com 20 adultos de S. zemais, sendo a mortalidade verificada após 15 dias de contato. Às infestações ocorreram 30, 60, 90, 120, 150,180, 210 e 240 dias após a aplicação dos produtos. Até 60 dias após a aplicação, ambas as dosagens de Pirimifós metílico causaram mortalidade acima de 80%, porém após esse período apenas a dosagem de 8 mL ficou acima de 88%. Já a dosagem de 8mL de Bifentrina, aos 30 dias, apresentou 51,04% de mortalidade, sendo a maior nos tratamentos com este inseticida. Resistência e degradação dos inseticidas são possíveis causas da baixa mortalidade. Conclui-se que Pirimifós metílico com dosagem de 8mL representa a melhor forma de controle de S. zeamais.
Tumor-Targeting Peptides: Ligands for Molecular Imaging and Therapy
Authors: Zhao Ning , Qin Yeshan , Liu Hongguang , Cheng Zhen
Published: April 2017

The aberrant proliferation of tumor cells and abundant vasculature in tumor tissues are closely correlated
with receptors that are specifically dysregulated in tumor cells. These tumor-associated targets are critical
in early diagnosis and therapy selection. Ligands such as antibodies, proteins, polypeptides and polysaccharides
that specifically bind to these targets can significantly improve the detection and cure rate when used as tumor
imaging probes or anti-tumor agents. Compared to other targeting ligands, peptides have attracted increasingly
more attention in tumor diagnostics and therapeutics because of their small sizes, high affinity, stability, ease of
modification and low immunogenicity. Several peptide-based imaging probes and therapeutic agents have already
been used in clinical trials. This review summarizes some of the tumor-associated targets and their corresponding
peptides, as well as the potential of these peptides in cancer treatment.
If film is a language, can birds make movies? An essay and two heretical descriptive systems
Authors: Tim Ridlen
Published: April 2017

The work presented here uses the analogy of artists as talking birds and draws on research from cognitive ethology, linguistics, and film studies to ask, what kind of knowledge does art produce? Drawn diagrams and short structural videos illustrate but perhaps complicate or even obfuscate various parts of the text. The starting point is a 1966 film by Pier Paolo Pasolini, 'The Hawks and the Sparrows', alongside his essay published with the script, 'The Cinema of Poetry'. That text made a compelling argument about the nature of cinematic language, while his film imagined a world in which birds could speak. This essay – made up of text, drawn diagrams, and short video loops – takes the next logical step and asks, can birds make movies? The question is left unanswered, at least explicitly, and remains a figure or stand in for artistic forms of knowledge, research, and thought. This essay may not be of interest to those studying linguistics, cognitive ethology, or film history in earnest, but rather to those interested in visual forms of knowledge production and communication, humanistic explorations of the natural sciences, and the history of ideas.

This presentation is the first of a three-part series titled 'The Artist’s Field Library', an arrangement of essays and source materials that explore the mutually transformative relationship between art and the university. The second essay in the series deals with academic institutions as the site of artistic and political practices, as well as what stands to be won or lost, and the third deals with critical pedagogy.
Copy, tweak, paste: methods of appropriation in facsimile artists' books
Authors: Rob van Leijsen
Published: April 2017

Iconic artists’ books from the 1960s and 1970s have recently been subject to numerous attempted appropriations by publishers and artists, resulting in the production of facsimiles and bootlegs of famous titles. The original versions of artists’ books from the 1960s and 1970s have become scarce over time because of the relentless interest of art dealers and antiquarians, who sell the books for extraordinary prices. Outside the art and book markets, rare artists’ books are mainly available for consultation in libraries or exhibited in showcases. A re-enactment tendency concerning artists’ books has become a recurrent phenomena, the result or answer to the scarce status some artists’ books hold today. Reviewing several re-enacted artists’ books produced by artists and publishers allows their methods of appropriation to be identified and the discourses of this practice to be pursued. Written from the perspective of a graphic designer, the focus lies on visible technical aspects of book production, such as materials and production techniques, which allow comparison of the books, their makers, and their discourses. The conclusion surveys the found methods used by artists and publishers and discusses future tasks in producing and disseminating re-enacted artists’ books, as well as redefining the position of graphic designers in this process.
Talking field: listening to the troubled site
Authors: Budhaditya Chattopadhyay
Published: April 2017

This exposition examines my recent multi-channel sound composition 'Decomposing Landscape' (2015), inquiring into the complex, nebulous, and evolving relationship between sound and site that is thoroughly challenged in the practice of phonography or field-recording-based sound artworks dealing with environmentally troubled sites. Phonography-based compositions and sound artworks are developed through location-aware listening and field recordings made at specific sites and landscapes. The compositional strategy in these works relies on artistic interventions through the intricate processes of field recording and processing of recognisable environmental sounds using multi-channel spatialisation techniques. The artistic transformation renders these sounds into a blurry area between compositional abstraction and a portrayal of their site-based origins. The question is, how much spatial information is retained and how much abstraction is deployed in these sound artworks? A discussion of this work sheds light on some approaches and a methodology of handling site-specific evidence in sound art production.
Asymptotic conformality of the barycentric extension of quasiconformal maps
Authors: Matsuzaki Katsuhiko , Yanagishita Masahiro
Published: April 2017

We first remark that the complex dilatation of a quasiconformal homeomorphism
of a hyperbolic Riemann surface R obtained by the barycentric extension due
to Douady-Earle vanishes at any cusp of R. Then we give a new proof, without
using the Bers embedding, of a fact that the quasiconformal homeomorphism
obtained by the barycentric extension from an integrable Beltrami coefficient
on R is asymptotically conformal if R satisfies a certain geometric
condition.
