Postcolonial Memory in the Netherlands
Authors: Engelenhoven Gerlov
Published: August 2023

This book is about postcolonial memory in the Netherlands. This term refers to conflicts in contemporary society about how the colonial past should be remembered. The question is often: who has the right or ability to tell their stories and who do not? In other words: who has a voice, and who is silenced? As such, these conflicts represent a wider tendency in cultural theory and activism to use voice as a metaphor for empowerment and silence as voice’s negative counterpart, signifying powerlessness. And yet, there are voices that do not liberate us from, but rather subject us to power. Meanwhile, silence can be powerful: it can protect, disrupt and reconfigure. Throughout this book, it will become clear how voice and silence function not as each other’s opposites, but as each other’s continuation, and that postcolonial memory is articulated through the interplay of meaningful voices and meaningful silences.
The case of the train hijackings
Authors: van Engelenhoven Gerlov
Published: August 2023

This chapter’s focus is on the train hijackings that took place in the Netherlands in 1975 and 1977. Because the hijackers carried out their actions on behalf of the Moluccan separatist struggle, the media have often framed them as the voices of their community. By framing them as such, the hijackers are understood as central representatives of Moluccan collective memory, but by the same token, Moluccan collective memory is reduced to the way in which the hijackers expressed it. As such, I will analyze how speaking up sometimes can entail allowing one’s voice to be appropriated by others, and how remaining silent therefore can be the process of protecting one’s voice from such appropriation.
The Forest and the Trees
Authors: Later Naja
Published: August 2023

This chapter focuses on Irene Brodsky’s documentary about the “Slenderman” internet legend, Beware the Slenderman (2016), which concerns the perpetrators of an attempted murder, devotees of Slenderman who believed their crime would make them his proxies. I argue that the documentary struggles between sensationalising and rationalising the crime and that, in attempting to explain the power of the Slenderman, Brodsky replicates the aesthetics of Slenderman vernacular media. The documentary also invokes a motif of the fairy-tale “woods” that comes to stand for the internet as an equivalent terrain of danger and menace. Brodsky’s documentary is thus at odds with its objective: in trying to offer cohesion and closure to a troubling case, its narrative about an internet monster becomes monstrous and fantastical.
Mark Duplass as Mumblegore Serial Killer
Authors: Lynch Andrew
Published: August 2023

The Creep series comprises two US found footage horror films directed by Patrick Brice and produced by Duplass Brothers Productions as part of the “mumblegore” film movement. Mumblegore refers to horror films directed by or including the participation of filmmakers associated with the larger mumblecore indie drama movement. As a film movement and a sub-genre, mumblegore represents a distinct type of folkloresque fictional vernacular film. Both Creep (2014) and its sequel Creep 2 (2017) centre around Josef (played by indie film icon Mark Duplass), a prolific serial killer who preys on amateur filmmakers. The Creep series engages with a number of vernacular or “folk” filmmaking aesthetics, including those associated with “folk horror.” The Creep films feature and comment on vernacular film practices. As such, they can be considered “fictional vernacular films.”
Documenting the Unheard
Authors: Gaunson Stephen
Published: August 2023

This chapter examines how the Australian apocalyptic sect (known as either The Family, Santiniketan Park Association, or the Great White Brotherhood), whose motto was “unseen, unheard, unknown,” is represented in the feature documentary film The Family (Jones 2016) and subsequent ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) three-part television series of the same title. By responding to concerns that Jones’s documentary has an ambiguous approach to the claims raised by the cult’s victims, this chapter highlights how tropes from folk horror shape the documentary’s depiction of trauma and child abuse perpetrated by leaders of the cult. I argue that testing Bill Nichols’s modes of documentary (mostly the poetic mode) against folk horror makes sense because (like the poetic mode of documentary) folk horror typically denies resolution and closure, which aligns with The Family’s implication that survival is never free from the burden of trauma.
Reimagining the Pontianak Myth in Malaysian Folk Horror
Authors: Ng Andrew Hock Soon
Published: August 2023

This chapter focuses on the myth of the pontianak, a female monster from Malaysia’s animistic past. The essay focuses on depictions of the pontianak in a series of Malaysian folk horror films from 1957 onwards, the year Malaysia achieved independence from British colonisation. The chapter explores the reimagination of the creature as folk horror after centuries of marginalisation. I argue that the pontianak’s surprising reconfigurations refract cultural anxieties of the collective national unconscious and illustrate how a legacy from prehistory functions as flexible tradition in the modern era. The endless adaptability of the pontianak myth ensures the creature’s continuing relevance while illuminating how folk horror is a vehicle for the flexible re-articulation of the pontianak.
Introduction: Folk Monsters and Monstrous Media
Authors: Craven Allison , Balanzategui Jessica
Published: August 2023

The introduction outlines this collection’s focus on the affordances of the media environments in which monsters are made and how they are generated by media-specific creative practices as much as the epistemologies or cultures in which they originate. In examining monstrous beings across a diverse range of contexts, this collection illustrates how monsters travel and lurk between vernacular – or what we polemically term “folk” – and formal media cultures. As this chapter and the collection as a whole elucidate, monsters travel through time as well as space, yet their composition and the anxieties that they project are materially inflected by specific cultural, historical, regional, and geographic conditions.
Expressive Visual Effects from Silent to Sound Film
Authors: Loew Katharina
Published: August 2023

It is often assumed that with the introduction of synchronized sound, ‘silent-style’ visual effects largely disappeared as an expressive device. However, sound films continued to render abstract ideas by means of multiple exposure and split screen mattes. The resulting composites, which I call montage shots, do not seek to represent physical realities within the diegesis. Instead, they are clearly recognizable as formal devices that encourage viewers to forge conceptual connections between simultaneously presented images. The case of montage shots attests to a far greater consistency between silent and sound aesthetics than is usually acknowledged. It reveals how early sound films cultivated and expanded silent cinema’s modes of expressivity, but also relegated them to discrete non-mimetic episodes. Attention to alternative approaches to expressive visual effects also allows us to rethink the instance of the Hollywood montage sequence, which became a staple of American filmmaking for decades to come.
From the Lexigraphic to the Melomanic
Authors: Crafton Donald
Published: August 2023

Lexigraphic and Melomanic are concepts proposed to fine tune our understanding of American studio animation’s transition to sound. In the 1910s and 1920s, animators and audiences were accustomed to following cartoon stories as a kind of reading, assisted by icons and words-in-the-image stylistics adapted from comic strips and comic books. These symbols and picture-words anticipated emoji, delivering an idea, concept, or emotion in pictorial form. Many animators employed these image-texts and picture icons imaginatively and reflexively. Led by the competitive example of the Walt Disney studio when it converted to sound, the established lexigraphic mode of production and reception gave way quickly to melomania – an obsessive preoccupation with syncing screen action to a pre-recorded soundtrack.
“To Select, To Organize, To Sharpen”
Authors: Slowik Michael
Published: August 2023

Film scholars have praised Rouben Mamoulian’s Applause for its early innovative use of sound. Less attention, however, has been paid to two key questions: precisely how unusual were such techniques when the film was released, and what factors encouraged Mamoulian to offer such an unorthodox sound approach? This article answers these questions by examining Mamoulian’s beliefs about artistry in general, and film sound in particular, and by comparing Applause to the sound practices of other films at the time. Mamoulian’s devotion to medium specificity and stylization drove him to conceptualize film sound as an element to be selected, manipulated, and harnessed to the story, an attitude that was unusual at the time but would soon become the Hollywood norm.
“How Did the Music Get to the Fish Market?”
Authors: Wiegand Daniel
Published: August 2023

This chapter traces patterns in the use of nondiegetic music between late 1929 and mid-1931 based on the analysis of a significant corpus of early German sound films. While nondiegetic music did occur during this period, it was mostly limited to certain film genres and standard moments. More exceptional uses emerged in individual films before becoming more frequent from mid-1931 on. In the second part, the chapter shows that the initial reluctance to use nondiegetic music was partly supported by authors in the trade press since it was often considered to be ‘illogical,’ ‘arbitrary,’ or incompatible with sound film’s realist (or ‘objective’) aesthetics. However, this disapproval gradually gave way to habituation and fascination when new ways of connecting images with music emerged.

Effects of Mau Forest Evictions on Human Security of the Ogiek Community, Kenya
Authors: Koech Betty Chemutai , Iteyo Crispinous
Published: August 2023

Forest communities have had to globally endure evictions, sometimes forceful, due to the need for governments to conserve the environment by protecting forests from negative human actions. The Ogiek are hunters and gatherers and rely mainly on wild fruits, beekeeping, and game hunting as a source of livelihood. Animals, e.g., hyrax, were hunted. The Ogiek's lives and sources of livelihood are highly dependent on the forest. The Ogiek community of Mau Forest, Kenya, is a forest community that has faced a similar fate since the colonial period. This study sought to establish the effects of Mau Forest evictions on the human security of the Ogiek community in Kenya. The study used a descriptive research design. The study sampled 465 respondents, who included 384 household heads, 1 county commissioner, 2 deputy county commissioners, 7 chiefs, 14 village elders, 1 county police commander, 2 sub-county police commanders, 5 conservationist organisations, 5 environmentalist groups, 1 UNEP officer, 1 UN Habitat officer, 1 officer from the ministry of environment, 10 officers from Kenya Forest Service (KFS), 10 officers from Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), 5 officers from NGOs, 1 officer from the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), and 15 heads of NGOs and CBOs. The study applied simple random, purposive, and census sampling techniques. Interviews, questionnaires, FGDs, and observation made up the data collection instruments. SPSS version 26 was used to analyse quantitative data. The data revealed that the Mau forest evictions had negative effects on Ogiek human security, including deaths (86%), injuries (97%), destruction of homes (98%), farms (80%), livestock (52%), illness (95%), lack of sanitation (92%), gender-based violence (69%), disruption of schooling (100%), loss of culture (94%), separation from family (88%), loss of livelihoods (98%), and increased human-wildlife conflicts (78%). 100% of respondents feared for their safety. The study revealed that the evictions had negative effects on the Ogiek community on virtually all seven elements of human security, namely economic security, food security, health security, environmental security, personal security, community security, and political security. The study contributes to the literature on indigenous land rights and human security, informs policymakers, and assists policy implementers in carrying out government directives without violating people's rights. It is also essential for civil society leaders. The study recommends that clear and transparent guidelines regarding the eviction process and any form of compensation be set and discussed with the affected households so as to avoid unnecessary impoverishment and protect livelihoods. The study further reckons that the government should adopt a more humane and sustainable relocation policy and provide alternative ways of livelihood to the victims.
A rise in HFC-23 emissions from eastern Asia since 2015

Abstract. Trifluoromethane (CHF3, HFC-23), one of the most potent greenhouse gases among hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), is mainly emitted to the atmosphere as a by-product in the production of the ozone-depleting legacy refrigerant and chemical feedstock chlorodifluoromethane (CHClF2, HCFC-22). A recent study on atmospheric observation-based global HFC-23 emissions (top-down estimates) showed significant discrepancies over 2014–2017 between the increase in the observation-derived emissions and the 87 % emission reduction expected from capture and destruction processes of HFC-23 at HCFC-22 production facilities implemented by national phase-out plans (bottom-up emission estimates) (Stanley et al., 2020). However, the actual
regions responsible for the increased emissions were not identified. Here,
we estimate the regional top-down emissions of HFC-23 for eastern Asia based on in situ measurements at Gosan, South Korea, and show that the HFC-23 emissions from eastern China have increased from 5.0±0.4 Gg yr−1 in 2008 to 9.5±1.0 Gg yr−1 in 2019. The continuous rise since 2015 was contrary to the large emissions reduction reported under the Chinese hydrochlorofluorocarbons production phase-out management plan (HPPMP). The cumulative difference between top-down and bottom-up estimates for 2015–2019 in eastern China was ∼23.7±3.6 Gg, which accounts for 47±11 % of the global mismatch. Our analysis based on HCFC-22 production information suggests the HFC-23 emissions rise in eastern China is more likely associated with known HCFC-22 production facilities rather than the existence of unreported, unknown HCFC-22 production, and thus observed discrepancies between top-down and bottom-up emissions could be attributed to unsuccessful factory-level HFC-23 abatement and inaccurate quantification of emission reductions.
Seasonal cycles of biogeochemical fluxes in the Scotia Sea, Southern Ocean: a stable isotope approach
Authors: Belcher Anna , Henley Sian F. , Hendry Katharine , Wootton Marianne , Friberg Lisa , Dallman Ursula , Wang Tong , Coath Christopher , Manno Clara
Published: August 2023

Abstract. The biological carbon pump is responsible for much of the decadal
variability in the ocean carbon dioxide (CO2) sink, driving the
transfer of carbon from the atmosphere to the deep ocean. A mechanistic
understanding of the ecological drivers of particulate organic carbon (POC)
flux is key both to the assessment of the magnitude of the ocean CO2
sink and for accurate predictions as to how this will change with
changing climate. This is particularly important in the Southern Ocean, a
key region for the uptake of CO2 and the supply of nutrients to the
global thermocline. In this study we examine sediment-trap-derived particle
fluxes and stable isotope signatures of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and
biogenic silica (BSi) at a study site in the biologically productive waters
of the northern Scotia Sea in the Southern Ocean. Both deep (2000 m) and
shallow (400 m) sediment traps exhibited two main peaks in POC, particulate
N, and BSi flux: one in austral spring and one in summer, reflecting periods
of high surface productivity. Particulate fluxes and isotopic compositions
were similar in both deep and shallow sediment traps, highlighting that most
remineralisation occurred in the upper 400 m of the water column.
Differences in the seasonal cycles of isotopic compositions of C, N, and Si
provide insights into the degree of coupling of these key nutrients. We
measured increasing isotopic enrichment of POC and BSi in spring, consistent
with fractionation during biological uptake. Since we observed isotopically
light particulate material in the traps in summer, we suggest
physically mediated replenishment of lighter isotopes of key nutrients from
depth, enabling the full expression of the isotopic fractionation associated
with biological uptake. The change in the nutrient and remineralisation
regimes, indicated by the different isotopic compositions of the spring and
summer productive periods, suggests a change in the source region of
material reaching the traps and associated shifts in phytoplankton community
structure. This, combined with the occurrence of advective inputs at certain
times of the year, highlights the need to make synchronous measurements of
physical processes to improve our ability to track changes in the source
regions of sinking particulate material. We also highlight the need to
conduct particle-specific (e.g. faecal pellets, phytoplankton detritus,
zooplankton moults) isotopic analysis to improve the use of this tool in
assessing particle composition of the sinking material and to develop our
understanding of the drivers of biogeochemical fluxes.

Abstract. Atmospheric lidars can simultaneously measure clouds and aerosols with high temporal and spatial resolution and hence help understand cloud–aerosol interactions, which are the source of major uncertainties in future climate projections. However, atmospheric lidars are typically custom-built, with significant differences between them. In this sense, lidar networks play a crucial role as they coordinate the efforts of different groups, provide guidelines for quality-assured routine measurements and opportunities for side-by-side instrument comparisons, and enforce algorithm validation, all aiming to homogenize the physical retrievals from heterogeneous instruments in a network. Here we provide a high-level overview of the Lidar Processing Pipeline (LPP), an ongoing, collaborative, and open-source coordinated effort in Latin America. The LPP is a collection of tools with the ultimate goal of handling all the steps of a typical analysis of lidar measurements. The modular and configurable framework is generic enough to be applicable to any lidar instrument. The first publicly released version of the LPP produces data files at levels 0 (raw and metadata), 1 (averaging and layer mask), and 2 (aerosol optical properties). We assess the performance of the LPP through quantitative and qualitative analyses of simulated and measured elastic lidar signals.
For noiseless synthetic 532 nm elastic signals with a constant lidar ratio (LR), the root mean square error (RMSE) in aerosol extinction within the boundary layer is about 0.1 %. In contrast, retrievals of aerosol backscatter from noisy elastic signals with a variable LR have an RMSE of 11 %, mostly due to assuming a constant LR in the inversion.
The application of the LPP for measurements in São Paulo, further constrained by co-located AERONET data, retrieved a lidar ratio of 69.9 ± 5.2 sr at 532 nm, in agreement with reported values for urban aerosols. Over the Amazon, analysis of a 6 km thick multi-layer cirrus found a cloud optical depth of about 0.46, also in agreement with previous studies. From this exercise, we identify the need for new features and discuss a roadmap to guide future development, accommodating the needs of our community.
Analysis of thermal-offset drift of a high-resolution current probe using a planar Hall resistance sensor
Authors: Lee NamYoung , Kim Jaesoo , Lee DaeSung
Published: August 2023

Abstract. We developed a pin-type current probe with high sensitivity, targeting electrical-probing printed circuit boards (PCBs). The developed sensor showed good enough characteristics, with 1 mA resolution on current measurements and up to 1 MHz operating frequency for analyzing highly integrated PCBs. During its characterization, however, we experienced a monotonously varying output signal in the time range of a few tens of minutes. We modeled it as the thermal-offset drift, being caused by Joule heating during sensor operation, and
showed several solutions for reducing the offset by modifying the planar Hall resistance (PHR)
layout and electric operation conditions and applying sensor circuitry with
pulse width modulation.

Modeling The Effects of Climate Change on Food Production in Ivory Coast: Evidence from ARDL Approach

Published: August 2023

There is a direct link between global warming and hunger in emerging West African nations like Ivory Coast, where the population is overgrowing, and food insecurity is rising. This work aims to examine and explore climate change's effects on agriculture production in Ivory Coast from 1990 to 2019. Various stationarity tests, including the Phillips-Perron (PP) and the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF), are applied to determine the variables' order of integration. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach is employed to model the long- and short-run relationships between temperature, rainfall, carbon dioxide emissions, domestic credit, gross capital formation, and agriculture sector and subsectors. The present study uses the Johansen cointegration test to verify the long-run cointegration of the ARDL estimation. The findings reveal that all the variables are integrated into order zero or one. Cointegration tests demonstrate a valid long-term association between the variables. Agriculture and related subsectors in Ivory Coast were found to benefit from increasing temperature over the long run, except for the fishery subsector, where the impact is negligible. In the short run, temperature’s effect is positive on aggregate agriculture, although it is not statistically significant. Its effect is beneficial to agriculture's subsectors, except for fishery production. In both runs, Ivory Coast’s aggregate agriculture sector and fishery subsector are negatively affected by rainfall. An insignificant favorable effect of rainfall is found on crop production in both runs. The estimated results indicated that the role of CO2 is positive on agriculture and crop production in both run estimations. However, CO2 does not impact livestock production. It has a long-term positive influence on fishery production but no effect in the short run. Domestic credit is found to have a beneficial influence on agriculture and its subsectors in both runs, except for crop and livestock production, where the effect is negative and insignificant in the short run. Gross capital formation negatively impacts agriculture and its subsectors in Ivory Coast, except crop production, where it only has an insignificant beneficial effect in the short run. The same is true for fishery production, which only had a significant favourable impact effect in the short run. For the government and policymakers, the findings guide the formulation of suitable policies to address global warming's effects on agriculture and guarantee sustainable food production for the increasing population.
Measles and Homoeopathic Approach

Published: August 2023

One of the most widespread viruses that can infect youngsters is the measles. Preschoolers are particularly susceptible, and it is typically seen in the winter and spring.
Before the vaccine was developed in 1963, there were 500 fatalities and 3–4 million cases of measles annually in the US. Due to immunisation, there have been much fewer measles infections in recent years. The illness hasn't been totally eliminated, though.
For many years, homoeopathy has been shown to be successful in both preventing and treating measles, and several cases have amply demonstrated this. Early on in a sickness, homoeopathic remedies are helpful. Our homoeopathic treatment boosts our immune system, protecting us from the catastrophic repercussions of the measles in addition to treating the disease.

The kinetic solvent effect on the rate of reaction for the acid catalysed hydrolysis of propyl methanoate has been studed in different compositions (30 to70%) of aqueous mixture of prpanol-2(v/v) over the different ranges of temperature(20 to 400 c). The reaction followed second order kimnetics. With addition of solvent the rate of reaction decreases progressively. The energy of activation (Ec) is calculated with the help of Arrhenius plots with reciprocal of absolute temperature. Linear relation has been observed for the plots of logk against different dielectric values of propanol-2. The effect of solvent on thermodynamic parameter has also been discussed and calculated with wynne Jones and Eyring equation. The nature of solvent-solute interaction has been explained by calculation Iso-kinetic temperature.
