Cultural and geological heritage in time elapsed during historical Kingdoms in Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia
Authors: Mulyaningsih Sri
Published: December 2021

Yogyakarta, Indonesia is known for its kingdom government system for all its living history; since 8-10th century Mataram Hindu-Buddhist temples to the present Muslim Ngayogyokarto Hadiningrat. Those stretch of history resulted in many artefacts and chronicles. A cultural imaginary line that linking Merapi Volcano in the north and the Indian Ocean in the south through the Yogyakarta Palace in the middle has a sacral geo-cultural heritage, explaining a prosperity gentle volcanic town, a beautiful scheme of the open panoramic features with several temples standing on the plain and mountainous landscapes in between the rest of earthquakes and the volcanic eruptions. Many temples were partly buried under volcanic materials, and some others show evidence of being shaken several times by earthquakes. Boulders of volcanic materials varying in size and shapes are present in the plain of Yogyakarta, near Cangkiringan, Ngemplak and Ngaglik. Landslides exposed many geological features, such as faults, rock formation and stratigraphy, and some unstable slopes. Cultural and geological heritages at Yogyakarta Region were created over the time.
The Palaeo-Kambaniru river mouth, Sumba, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia: A record of strongly seasonal catastrophic flow in a monsoon-controlled deltaic complex
Authors: Zonneveld John-Paul , Zaim Yahdi , Rizal Yan , Aswan Aswan , Fortuin Anne , Larick Roy , Ciochon Russell L.
Published: December 2021

The Kambaniru River valley near the city of Waingapu preserves a thick succession of coarse-grained fluvial-deltaic sediment deposited during the Late Pleistocene. This succession incises through a thick uplifted coral reef terrace succession and records intervals of highly episodic flow events during the last glacial interval. The occurrence of intraclastic, coarse sand/gravel matrix olistostromes in several areas attests to the occasionally catastrophic nature of flow in the ancestral Kambaniru River. Small to moderate-sized coral-rich reefs and laterally restricted reef terraces occur on delta-front conglomerate successions at multiple horizons through the study interval. These reefs record both intervals of low flow as well as periodic river-mouth avulsion episodes. Comparison of radiometric dates obtained from pelecypod and coral material from both deltaic successions and laterally adjacent coral reef terrace intervals indicates that uplift/subsidence history of the terraces differs from that of the valley and that correlation between the two should be taken with care.
Fossil-bearing Citalang Formation, Sumedang-Majalengka, West Java
Authors: Rizal Yan
Published: December 2021

The Citalang Formation in Sumedang-Majalengka area comprises of various lithological units, including coarse-grained sandstones to conglomerates, greenish grey to dark grey claystone with sandstone and tuff interbeds, and pumice-bearing tuffaceous sandstones and tuff. All these units occur in the lower part of the formation and the contacts with older, underlying rock units are unconformable in several places.Vertebrate fossil fragments are frequently found in the lowermost part of the formation, especially within the coarse-grained sandstones to conglomerates unit. This unit also holds stone tools artefacts, which were made from different kind of stones and show quite simple or primitive shape. The age of Citalang Formation is not yet resolved and still needs to be researched. Some published literatures suggest Pleistocene while there are others that suggest Pliocene.
Imena na konici nosu
Authors: Hajdini Simon
Published: December 2021

Problem imenovanja ni kateri koli filozofski problem, pač pa je osrednjega pomena za
klasično ontologijo, ki se opira na koncept imen (onomata) kot oprijemajočih se reči
(pragmata) v njihovi bistveni biti. Kot tako je bilo ime tradicionalno zvezano s konceptom
resnice kot adequatio, tj. resnice kot ujemanja med vednostjo in bitjo, intelektom in rečjo ali
propozicijo in realnostjo. Na tem mestu bomo vrgli pogled s strani na ta masivni filozofski
problem, tako da se ga bomo lotili s posebnega vidika vonjav in njihovega osupljivega
razmerja do jezika.

Smell Related Neologisms in Avant-garde
and Contemporary Art and Scholarship
Authors: Verbeek Caro
Published: December 2021

For her doctoral dissertation “In Search of Lost Scents,” art and scent historian Caro Verbeek (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Kunstmuseum, The Hague) collected olfactory neologisms or newly invented smell related words from (art) historical sources ranging from 1855 to 1975, which she categorised according to the themes poetry, mind, concepts, material and synaesthesia. Three never-before-published artistic illustrations by the author help establish a more embodied cognition of the meaning of some of these concepts, as including “smell images” is impossible. In addition, she has created a “synaesthetic odour wheel” based on literary sources (2021).
Subversive Children's Literature - a Puppet
Play Georgie and the Three Thieves by Alenka
Gerlovič in the Context
Authors: Blažić Milena Mileva
Published: December 2021

The article deals with the puppet play by the painter Alenka Gerlovič (1919–2010), entitled Jurček in trije razbojniki (Jurček (George/Georgie) and the Three Thieves). The play premièred at the Partisan Puppet Theater in 1944 and was published in 1950, with pictures from the puppet show. It is an expression of the author‘s ethical attitude towards Fascism and Nazism and the horrors of war. As the analysis shows, Alenka Gerlovič‘s play places her among the world‘s leading youth writers who have commented on the events of the war. Alenka Gerlovič uses Jurček to create an "imaginary screen" that allowed the audience to maintain a distance from the atrocities in the wartime situation and at the same time to be part of the anti-fascist struggle, also as a symbolic weapon and ethical act.
The Theatre of the Senses: Introductory
Words and a Short Conversation for the
Symposium
Authors: Vargas Enrique , Jenič Barbara Pia , Toporišič Tomaž
Published: December 2021

What happens to us when we enter a Teatro de los Sentidos (Theatre of the Senses)
experience? Why do we need to play? Where does our need to play come from? Why is
sensory theatre relevant today? For what strange reasons do humans like to play getting
lost and finding themselves in the dark? I want to share with you the reasons why Teatro
de los Sentidos has been significant to me ever since I became aware of inventing myself
and inventing it in my childhood games, imagining forbidden labyrinths in Colombian
coffee plantations, until today, at my eighty years of age. It is clear that a lot of primal
and parallel knowledge has developed over time in all cultures. Myths, celebrations,
imagination, poetry, symbolic powers ... resonate differently, each according to historical
circumstances. Let us ask ourselves together: what potential does sensorial theatre have
today? (Enrique Vargas: Some questions before the symposium.)
Uprizarjanje dotika in vonja: liminalnost
čutov
Authors: Toporišič Tomaž
Published: December 2021

Članek obravnava liminalno naravo uporabe različnih čutov v sodobnih uprizoritvenih
umetnostih. Njegovo izhodišče so naslednje misli: med umetniškimi dogodki poteka
performativno dejanje, ki preoblikuje izvajalce in občinstvo, ter izmenjava vlog med »odrom«
in »dvorano«, bodisi v smislu spektakla Augusta Boala bodisi uničenja četrte stene in
posebne »avtopoetične povratne zanke« (Erika Fischer-Lichte). Naš cilj je ponovno premisliti
in preučiti vlogo čutnega jezika kot enega od redko uporabljenih, a zelo učinkovitih orodij
performativnih revolucij 20. in 21. stoletja. Te revolucije so se začele s futuristi, nadaljevale
s taktilnimi in čutnimi performansi ter pristopi Marine Abramović in Yoko Ono ter dosegle
vrhunec z Enriquejem Vargasom in njegovim senzorialnim gledališčem v različnih fazah.
Poskušali bomo odgovoriti na naslednji vprašanji: Kako se lahko dotikamo in vonjamo ...
v performativnih dejanjih? Kakšne vrste liminalitet proizvaja senzorično dejanje v sodobni
uprizoritvi?
Names at the Tip of the Nose
Authors: Hajdini Simon
Published: December 2021

The problem of naming is not just any philosophical problem but rather central to classical
ontology. The latter depends on the notion of names (onomata) as latching onto things
(pragmata) in their essential being. As such, the name has traditionally been tied to the
concept of truth as adequatio or correspondence between knowledge and being, intellect
and thing, or proposition and reality. The author proposes to cast a side-glance at this
massive philosophical problem, approaching it from the singular point of view of smells
and their striking relationship to language.
Svet vonjav v slovenskih uprizoritvenih
umetnostih
Authors: Orel Barbara
Published: December 2021

Članek podaja pregled uprizoritev na slovenskih odrih, v katerih so bile uporabljene vonjave kot sredstvo za stimuliranje gledalčevih čutil in vzbujanje transformacijskih učinkov. S tega vidika gledališka kultura na Slovenskem še ni bila raziskana. Avtorica pokaže, da so bile vonjave sredstvo za senzorične zaznave predvsem v eksperimentalnih gledaliških praksah že od sedemdesetih let 20. stoletja (kot enega prvih primerov izpostavi uprizoritev v režiji Tomaža Kralja Cimetova vrata ladje norcev in druge spremembe v Eksperimentalnem gledališču Glej leta 1975). Zanimanje za olfaktorne raziskave se je med gledališčniki okrepilo v devetdesetih letih 20. stoletja. Vonj je bil uporabljen kot element za uresničevanje estetike realnega v postdramskem gledališču in za vzbujanje potopitvenega učinka pri gledalcih. To vlogo imajo vonjave tudi v gledališču 21. stoletja. Poetiko vonjev je začela načrtno in kontinuirano razvijati Barbara Pia Jenič v gledališču Senzorium, ki ga je leta 2001 ustanovila skupaj z Gabrielom Hernándezom. Pri ustvarjanju senzorialnih dogodkov še danes izhaja iz metodologije Enriqueja Vargasa, s katero se je kot igralka in oblikovalka vonjev seznanila v njegovi skupini Theatro de los Sentidos, v gledališču Senzorium pa jo je avtorsko nadgrajevala. Kot oblikovalka vonjev je sodelovala tudi z drugimi slovenskimi gledališči, med drugim pri operatoriju Milka Lazarja Deseta hči (po libretu Svetlane Makarovič in v režiji Rocca) v Slovenskem narodnem gledališču Opera in balet Ljubljana leta 2015.
The World of Odour in the Slovenian
Performing Arts
Authors: Orel Barbara
Published: December 2021

The article provides an overview of performances on Slovenian stages that have used odour to stimulate the audience’s senses and arouse transformational effects. Representing the first research of this kind into Slovenian culture, the author demonstrates that odour was used as a means of sensory perception, especially in experimental theatre practices since the 1970s. One of the first such works was Cimetova vrata ladje norcev in druge spremembe (The Cinnamon Door of the Ship of Fools and Other Changes), a performance art piece directed by Tomaž Kralj at Glej Theatre in 1975. In the 1990s, the interest in olfactory perceptions grew among theatre-makers who successfully used odour to implement the aesthetics of the real in post-dramatic theatre and achieve the immersion of the spectator. This role of odour in theatre also continues in the 21st century. Barbara Pia Jenič began deliberately and continuously developing the poetics of scent at the Sensorium Theatre, which she founded in 2001 with Gabriel Hernandez. In her creation of sensorial events, Jenič relies on the methodologies of Enrique Vargas, with which she became acquainted as an actress and scent designer in his group Teatro de los Sentidos and creatively developed them at the Sensorium Theatre. As a scent designer, Jenič has collaborated with other Slovenian theatres, among others, on the 2015 operatorium, The Tenth Daughter (Deseta hči) by Svetlana Makarovič (based on the libretto by Milko Lazar, directed by Rocco) at the Slovenian National Theatre – Opera and Ballet Ljubljana.

Authors: Kakar Muhammad Siddique , Rauf Shehzad , Iqbal Muhammad Waleed , Qureshi Azaan , Nabeel Saad
Published: December 2021

Objective: To assess the effects of early brief psychological interventions in patients of substance use disorders. Study Design and Setting: This descriptive prospective study was conducted at main reception centre filter clinic/ Emergency Department of PNS Shifa hospital from 1st July 2020 to 31st March 2021. Methodology: Total n=78 patients were identified after a simple screening question regarding substance abuse which was how many times the patient had used an illegal drug in the last one year. An answer of more than 1 was considered as a positive response and further screening was done with Drug and Alcohol screening test (DAST). Patients who showed low scores on DAST were recommended for brief interventions which were given as weekly sessions for 6 weeks and reassessment was done at 3rd month. The SPSS 20 package program was used for statistical analysis. The descriptive statistics were analyzed for all the variables evaluated in the study. Results: This study revealed that that after 3 months of brief psychological interventions, 43(55.1%) patients remained abstinent from drugs. 18(23%) patients did not report for follow up. 9(11.5%) had reduced their use while 8(10.2%) were still using drugs regularly. Conclusion: This study showed that brief psychological interventions at the level of filter clinics/Emergency departments can help patients of substance use seek early care who fear going to a psychiatric clinic.

Authors: Khaliq Faiza , Tariq Dr Shahnila , Batool Dr Saima
Published: December 2021

The study investigated the association between health-related behaviors, coping strategies and social media usage in young adults during COVID-19 smart lockdown as well as the mediating role of coping strategies between the relationships. It was hypothesized that coping strategies mediates the relationship between health-related behaviors and social media usage in young adults during COVID-19 smart lockdown. Through purposive sampling technique, data from (N=300) young adults with age range 18-35 years (M=23.67, SD= 3.78) was collected from three private universities of Lahore. For data collection, lifestyle behavior change questionnaire by Chopra et al. (2021), coping scale by Hamby et al. (2013) and social networking usage questionnaire by Savita and Liyaqat (2018) were used. For the analysis, Pearson Product Moment Correlation, Mediation analysis, independent sample t-test and Analysis of variance were used. Coping strategies significantly mediated between health-related behaviors and social media usage in young adults during COVID-19 smart lockdown. Findings have practical implications for the expansion of different strategies for other population like adolescents, old age people, teachers, parents, anddoctors, expecting to cope better with others during stressful or traumatic events.
Coping Strategies as Predictors of COVID-19 related Anxiety among General Physicians of Faisalabad
Authors: Sadiq Dr Riffat , Anwar Faiza
Published: December 2021

Emergence of COVID-19 pandemic created numerous physical and psychosocial upheavals for all. Specifically, health care professionals are at great risk of being contaminated by this life-threatening virus; consequently, they may prone to fear and anxiety related to COVID-19 situation. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the coping strategies as predictors of COVID-19 in general physicians of Faisalabad. The present correlational study was done on general physicians working in the outpatient departments of public and private sector hospitals of Faisalabad, Pakistan. Demographic Information Form, Brief Cope Scale and COVID-19 related Anxiety Scale were used to meet the present objectives. Multiple regression analysis revealed  active coping (? = -.247, t(118) = -2.446, p < .05), venting (? = .332, t(118) = 3.959, p < .001), religion (? = -.274, t(118) = -3.058, p < .01), emotional support (? =.207, t(118) = 2.085, p < .05), behavioral disengagement (? = .336, t(118) = 3.873, p < .001), humor (? = -.199, t(118) = -2.659, p < .01) and substance use (? = .363, t(118) = 4.158, p < .001) as significant predictors of COVID-19 related anxiety in general physicians. Three types of coping strategies seemed effective in overcoming COVID-19 related anxiety among general physicians. However, venting, behavioral disengagement, emotional support and substance abuse may decrease the COVID-19 related anxiety, if are used less by general physicians at work. The present findings have implications for general physicians who need to use coping strategies which may effectively reduce their anxiety associated with COVID-19 situation.

Urban afforestation provides a series of social, environmental, and economic benefits. Due to its importance for the quality of urban life, knowledge of the arboreal heritage offers subsidies for the public authorities to develop and improve management plans for urban afforestation. The goal was to survey the spatial distribution and estimate the potential for planting trees on streets in the urban area of Ponta Grossa, a medium-sized city in southern Brazil. Through visual analysis with the support of high-resolution images from the Pleiades sensor, as well as fieldwork in some places, it was estimated the number of trees per kilometer of road. It was observed 28,925 trees and the potential for planting 64,122 trees. Thus, there is a deficit of 35,197 trees. As it was obtained 22.52 trees/km on average, it arises a ‘very high’ level of attention. So, these data provide subsidies for the development of an urban forestation plan that contemplates street forestation

Although the fossil record from Antarctica is increasing continuously, there is still a great lack of knowledge regarding the past biodiversity of this continent. Here we present the first occurrences of the ammonoid Pseudophyllites? cf. latus in the Santa Marta Formation (Santonian-early Campanian) and the scaphopod Laevidentallium? sp. (Laevidentallidae) in the Gamma Member (late Campanian) of the Snow Hill Island Formation (late Campanian - early Maastrichtian). The presence of Laevidentalliidae in the Gamma Member characterizes the oldest occurrence of this family in Antarctica and it is apparently another taxon that originated in this continent and later migrated to lower latitudes.

Published: December 2021

Paleontology is a fundamental theme for the study and understanding of the origin and evolution of life on earth and is included in documents that govern basic education in Brazilian schools. The city of Ponta Grossa is widely known for its sites with abundant fossiliferous content. Based on the relevance of the theme and the characteristics of the region, this study evaluated the level of knowledge about Paleontology and the preservation of Paleontological Heritage among elementary school students of a public school. We used questionnaires, lectures, exhibitions of fossils from the region, and analysis of the textbooks used by the school with two classes of 7th and 8th grade. In general, the students of the four classes demonstrated a similar level of initial knowledge about the theme, presenting basic conceptualization difficulties and a lack of knowledge about the occurrence of fossils in the region. A lack of approach to the theme in the analyzed textbooks was also verified, which corroborates the low level of knowledge of the students. The activities applied were effective in the appropriation of knowledge, with changes in the level of understanding of the students at the end. The importance of using different methodologies for teaching this science is emphasized.

Published: December 2021

Recent fieldwork in the state of Mato Grosso made it possible to find new specimens of trilobites, among them: Metacryphaeus australis, Metacryphaeus sp., and a homalonotide. Taphonomically, it was possible to observe that there are two patterns of conservation, one of which is where the specimens are complete, related to a rapid burial event; and another pattern of preservation where paleoenvironmental conditions provided disarticulation after death. These new findings, as well as their taphonomic interpretations, open possibilities to work on biostratigraphic correlations, in addition to paleobiogeographic assessments for trilobites in South America.

The urban area of Ponta Grossa (PR) occurs on one of the most abundant fossiliferous fields in the country, which records an endemic fauna that occurred in the Devonian of the Paraná Basin. The growing urbanization of the city increasingly buries these outcrops, and new works must be accompanied by a specialized team to safeguard the paleontological heritage. This is the case of the Bosque Mistral project, which exposed many layers of the Ponta Grossa Formation, rich in fossils and trace fossils. This study reports the main fossiliferous occurrences in the section, correlates the section with classical outcrops from the literature, and interprets the main depositional environments as well stratigraphic cycles using an integrated analysis of sedimentology and ichnology. The ichnological distribution also evidences the retrogradation pattern, and, particularly, the occurrence of ichnofabrics dominated by Zoophycos at the top of the section is a signature of high-frequency cycles associated with the transgressive systems tract. Macrofossill biodiversity varies according to the facies, in the sandy and silty layers different organisms from the muddy layers occur. In the former, the epibiont fauna (mainly trilobites and brachiopods) is predominant while in the muddy layers the predominance is the endobiont and semi-endobiont fauna (bivalve mollusks and infaunal brachiopods). In other words, the distribution of taxa across the layers is not random.

Küreselleşme, tüm dünyanın iletişim, teknoloji, bilimsel gelişmeler ve ulaşım aracılığıyla birbirini etkilediği bir süreci ifade etmektedir. Bu süreçte ulus devletler, terörizm, insan hakları, kültür, dil, savaş politikaları, ideolojiler, teknoloji, bilimsel gelişmeler, ekonomi, kimlik, çevre kısacası toplumsal yapının tamamı bir dönüşüm yaşamıştır. Çalışmanın kapsamı bu dönüşümü yaratan küreselleşme süreciyle ortaya çıkan yeni toplumsal hareketlerdir. Yeni toplumsal hareketler klasik hareketlerden farklılaşarak, barış, insan hakları, demokrasi, kimlik, yeni dini yönelimler, alternatif yaşam, cinsel özgürlük, cinsiyet, çevre vb. temalara odaklanmıştır. Bu eylem biçimleriyle beraber, hareketlerin temaları, aktörleri ve talepleri değişmiştir. Bu talepler genellikle kimlik konusunda olsa da, bu çalışmada yeni toplumsal hareketlerin bir örneği olarak çevre hareketleri ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı küreselleşmenin çevre üzerindeki olumsuz sonuçlarına odaklanan küresel çevre hareketlerinin ele aldığı, küresel ısınma, ekolojik kriz, çölleşme, orman yangınları, doğal kaynakların tahrip edilmesi, nükleer tehditler, yasadışı avlanma, hayvan türlerinin yok edilmesi vb. konuları çözümlemektir. Çalışmada ayrıca küresel egemen güçler ile uluslararası şirketlerin liberal kapitalist modeli etkin kılmaya yönelik izledikleri politikalar üzerinde durulmaktadır. Bu bağlamda ekolojik sorunların sadece çevre ile ilgili olmadığı, aynı zamanda sosyal, siyasal ve ekonomik yapılarla da ilgili olduğu vurgulanmıştır.

In connection with membership in the World Trade Organization and the Eurasian Economic Union, the Republic of Kazakhstan has taken several obligations to create equal conditions for producers of goods, works and services of all participating countries. This circumstance makes it difficult to provide direct support to domestic producers. The purchases of government bodies, quasi-government organizations and subsoil users of solid minerals, hydrocarbons and uranium (government-regulated purchases) create a significant volume of demand for various kinds of goods, works and services. Therefore, within the framework of the research, a literary review of the regulatory legal acts governing the procurement of these entities was carried out. An assessment of the norms contributing to an increase in the share of local content in purchases is given. As a result, proposals were formed to improve legislation in order to increase the effectiveness of these norms.

Authors: ATILBOZ Nazlı Gökben
Published: December 2021

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the learning cycle instruction on preservice elementary teachers’ understanding of human circulatory system concepts, attitudes towards biology and motivations. The Human Circulatory System Concepts Test, Attitude Towards Biology Scale, Science Process Skills Test and Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire were used to collect data. The test was administered to preservice elementary teachers in control and experimental groups. The quasi-experimental design was used as research design. The analysis of covariance revealed a statistically significant difference in favor of the experimental group after treatment. The learning cycle instruction was more effective when compared with teacher-centered instruction in eliminating the students’ misconceptions about the circulatory system. There was no significant effect of the learning cycle instruction on students’ attitudes towards biology and motivation. Students’ prior knowledge and science process skills were related to students’ science achievement. Teacher educators should provide preservice teachers with different opportunities of experiencing the learning cycle as a teacher in teacher education programs.

Podjęte w niniejszym artykule zagadnienie dotyczy wszystkich patrociniów uchwytnych w źródłach z okresu średniowiecza w dolnośląskim miasteczku Ziębicach, które w l. 1321–1742 pełniło rolę stolicy księstwa bocznej linii Piastów Śląskich, a następnie czeskich książąt z rodu Podiebradów. W toku przeprowadzonych badań zidentyfikowano i opisano 30 patrociniów. Udało się na podstawie zebranego materiału źródłowego i dotychczasowych ustaleń wykazać, iż w Ziębicach największą czcią otaczano NMP, św. Jerzego, oraz szczególnie celebrowano kult Bożego Ciała, który ze względu na historię miasta i księstwa w okresie wojen husyckich stał się charakterystyczny dla Ziębic. Warto dodać, iż w większości patrocinia ziębickie wiążą się z pobożnością mieszczańską poprzez fundacje przede wszystkim altarii. Wśród wszystkich dedykacji zdecydowanie dominują wezwania hagiograficzne stanowiące 83% wszystkich tytułów. Natomiast dedykacje maryjne nie zostały uszczegółowione i występują pod ogólnym określeniem NMP.

Formation and characterization of acid mine drainage in the Madzharovo ore field, Southeastern Bulgaria
Authors: Bratkova Svetlana
Published: December 2021

The formation of acid mine drainage (AMD) is a serious environmental problem in areas with mining and processing industries worldwide. Their generation is associated with chemical and biological processes of oxidation of sulfide minerals, mainly pyrite. Sources of AMD can be deposits of sulfide minerals and coal with a high content of pyrite sulfur, mining waste and some tailings. The impact of AMD on surface and groundwater in mining areas continues for decades after the cessation of extraction. An example of the negative impact of generated acid mine drainage on the state of surface waters is in the region of Madzharovo. Years after the cessation of mining, the waters at the discharge points "Momina Skala", "Harman Kaya" and "Pandak Dere" are characterized by low pH values and high concentrations of iron, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead and manganese.

Gloc-9 as Organic Public Intellectual: Hip and Polished, Raw and Cool
Authors: Mendoza Lara Katrina
Published: December 2021

This paper will present Aristotle Pollisco—the singer-rapper-songwriter known as Gloc-9—as an organic and a as-yet-unrealised public intellectual. The term “organic” describes Gloc 9’s lack of academic or institutional recognition. No academic institutions recognize his level of influence and power. As a public intellectual, however, Gloc-9 enjoys immense popularity with his core fanbase, which is largely made up of listeners from the lower classes. This paper uses both Antonio Gramsci’s definition of the organic public intellectual and Edward Said’s claim regarding the exhortation of public intellectuals who exercise their political will in the public sphere. Mikhail Bakhtin’s discourse on the carnivalesque will bolster this paper’s claim that Gloc-9 assumes the role of an organic public intellectual through his music. In attempting to confront powerful institutions, Gloc-9 upends the social order through his songs rather than engaging other public intellectuals and scholars in ideological discourse. The paper will closely examine five of Gloc-9’s chart-topping songs dealing with poverty, social injustice, gender inequality, and corruption.
Resurfacing the Disappeared: The Author in Fish-Hair Woman by Merlinda Bobis
Authors: Santos Jaimee Faith J.
Published: December 2021

The subject of my paper is the author. I aim to explore how the self-conscious author functions in Fish-Hair Woman (2012), a metafictional novel by Merlinda Bobis. I begin with a brief discussion of how the author is constructed, first, in Philippine literary criticism, and second, in light of the collapse of the humanist tradition of valorizing the writer, which prompted the proclamation of the author’s “death” and rendered her irrelevant to the text and to criticism. But does the author stay dead? In metafiction, in particular, the author manages to “write” herself into the text using self-consciousness. I find that, while it is impossible to overlook the author’s decentered status, it is equally untenable to ignore how an overt “manifestation” of the author functions within the text. Through my reading of Fish-Hair Woman, I attempt to examine how the author’s self-consciousness results in two seemingly contradicting implications. On the one hand, the author’s constant references to herself allows her to “live” through the text, reinforcing the Barthesian notion that the author limits the text and its possible interpretations. On the other hand, the author’s constant references to herself as a subject exposes the author’s own limitations. This, in turn, “re-opens” the text, by giving room to questions about other perspectives that are not or cannot be represented in the text.
Socio-Cultural Appropriation of Sex-Sell Billboard Ads: A Multimodal Study on the Grammar of Sexually Implicit Advertising Text and Images
Authors: Lloren Gregg S.
Published: December 2021

In the Philippines, “sex-sell” advertisements (ads), particularly the 2011 billboard by Bench featuring the Volcano Philippine Rugby Team, have been controversial. Community leaders view the ads as being offensive to the socio-cultural values of the community in which the ad is distributed. In response, producers of the ads contend that their works are merely creative options within the frames of the law. This paper approaches the arguments by investigating the linguistic functions of sex-sell ads through the grammatical analysis of its visual syntax. Using the framework of multimodal discourse analysis in visual semiotics, the paper demonstrates how grammar in visual language is compatible with the systemic functional language of Halliday (1985) as applied in the visual design theories of Kress (2006) and van Leeuwen (2005). The multimodal approach to the analysis of the linguistic functions of sexually implicit billboard ads seek to demonstrate the social semiotic perspective in the construction of meaning in print ads, how ambiguous visual lexicon can occur, and how a dissonant visual assemblage invites resistant reading. Through this discursive analysis, the paper hopes to promote a critical awareness among the passive interpreters of texts (i.e. general public information consumers) and the institutions (e.g. education, creative industry) that actively participate in the discourse, design, production, and distribution of meaning in advertising texts and images.
