The Shock and Awe of the Real: Political Performance and the War on Terror
Authors: Jones Matt 
Published: January 2023

<p><em>The War on Terror has transformed the global political and cultural landscape of the last 20 years. How has it been represented in performance?</em></p>
<p><em>The Shock and Awe of the Real</em> is a transnational study of representation of the War on Terror in theatre, live art, protests, and new media. Looking at work by artists primarily from Arab and Middle Eastern diasporas working in the US, UK, Canada, and Europe, the study examines how modes of performance in live art, documentary theatre, and participatory performance respond to and comment on the power imbalances, racial formations, and political injustices of these conflicts.</p>
<p>Many of these performances are characterized by a deliberate blurring of the distinctions between performance and reality. This has meant that playwrights crafted scripts from the real words of soldiers instead of writing plays; performance artists harmed their real bodies, replicating the violence of war; actors performed in public space; and media artists used new technology to connect audiences to real warzones. This embrace of the real contrasts with postmodern suspicion of hyper-reality—which characterized much political performance in the 1990s—and marks a shift in understandings of the relationship between performance and the real. These strategies allowed artists to contend with the way that war today is also a multimedia attack on the way that reality is constructed and perceived. The dissertation traces the historical antecedents of these aesthetics in postmodern criticism of prior generations of political performance and shows how these artists struggled to discover new aesthetic strategies to criticize war, anti-Islamic racism, and violence.</p>
Sarin Gas Heartbreak: Theatre and Post-Truth Warfare in Syria
Authors: Jones Matt 
Published: January 2023

<p>During the Arab Spring, protesters sought to circulate to the world images of atrocities being carried out by the regime of Bashar al-Assad. But their attempts to capture the “truth” of what was happening was often undermined by, among other things, the low-resolution of the camera phones they were using. This failure also reveals wider problems in the activist tactic of using images to expose power. Although a photograph may provide a document of reality, it is one that is shaped by the political positions of those who capture it. Protesters responded to this dilemma by creating “post-truth” images that are self-consciously ideological and seek less to expose the truth than to ridicule the regime. This spirit of post-truth politics similarly animates Rabih Mroué’s performance lecture <em>The Pixelated Revolution</em> and Guillermo Calderón’s metatheatrical play <em>Kiss</em>, both of which confront the problem of trying to follow the events of the Syrian Civil War from outside the country. Through a close reading of these plays, this essay shows how Mroué and Calderón present post-truth methods of performance that investigate the Syrian Civil War and confront the limits of what can be known about it.</p>

Design of a low-energy envelope system for an apartment building through an integrated design process: A case study
Authors: Gorgolewski Mark 
Published: January 2023

<p>The potential to conserve energy in an apartment building in Toronto, Ontario, Canada through the implementation of an advanced envelope system was explored in this study. This paper illustrates the possibility in reducing energy demand through an integrated design process (IDP), where research outcomes were incorporated into the architectural design. Using the floor plan and schematics provided by the designer, a building energy model was established in an advanced simulation program to evaluate the performances of nine low-energy envelope design strategies in reducing the heating and cooling energy consumption. Through this study, it can be concluded that performing detailed energy simulations early in the design process to identify which low-energy envelope strategies can be omitted or substituted in the final envelope design is crucial in identifying the most effective strategies for improving energy performance. This study also demonstrates the potential of collaboration between academia and industry in generating high performance buildings. , </p>
Editorial: Performance in an Age of Gross Incompetence
Authors: Jones Matt 
Published: January 2023

<p>A drive toward professionalism animates a large section of the theatre and performance industry, but it also has its critics. Stefano Harvey and Fred Moten worry that professionalization has taken over cultural institutions, particularly the university, where the pursuit of knowledge has been replaced by ruthless careerism (26). Similarly, Olivier Choinière writes about the damaging culture of grants that turns artists into administrators. “Administration is eating away at us,” he claims. “It prevents us from thinking like artists” (30). But if professionalism directs energy away from creativity toward marketability, should we embrace its opposite: incompetence? </p>

Published: January 2023

<p>The crystal structure determination of the title compound, C15H14N2O, confirms the cis relationship between the phenyl groups at the 4- and 5-positions on the imidazolidine ring. The dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 48.14 (6). In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—HO hydrogen bonds link molecules into centrosymmetric dimers. These dimers are, in turn, linked into a two-dimensional network via weak N—H(arene) interactions and – stacking interactions with centroid–centroid distances of 3.6937 (11) A˚ . </p>

<p>Climate change brings about significant changes in the physical environment in the Arctic. Increasing temperatures, sea ice retreat, slumping permafrost, changing sea ice regimes, glacial loss and changes in precipitation patterns can all affect how contaminants distribute within the Arctic environment and subsequently impact the Arctic ecosystems. In this review, we summarized observed evidence of the influence of climate change on contaminant circulation and transport among various Arctic environment media, including air, ice, snow, permafrost, fresh water and the marine environment. We have also drawn on parallel examples observed in Antarctica and the Tibetan Plateau, to broaden the discussion on how climate change may influence contaminant fate in similar cold-climate ecosystems. Significant knowledge gaps on indirect effects of climate change on contaminants in the Arctic environment, including those of extreme weather events, increase in forests fires, and enhanced human activities leading to new local contaminant emissions, have been identified. Enhanced mobilization of contaminants to marine and freshwater ecosystems has been observed as a result of climate change, but better linkages need to be made between these observed effects with subsequent exposure and accumulation of contaminants in biota. Emerging issues include those of Arctic contamination by microplastics and higher molecular weight halogenated natural products (hHNPs) and the implications of such contamination in a changing Arctic environment is explored. </p>

Published: January 2023

<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Transition from pediatric to adult care has significant implications for health outcomes in youth with special health care needs. To optimally support the transition, health care and social service providers must work collaboratively with youth and families in service planning, implementation, and evaluation. Based on interviews with 15 youth and their families, we developed an arts-informed interprofessional education activity titled Transitions Theatre using the method of readers’ theater. <strong>Methods:</strong> Three educators with lived experience (one former pediatric rehabilitation client and two parents of youth with special health care needs) and three academic/clinical educators codesigned the transitions. We conducted four online workshops (14–20 participants each). <strong>Results:</strong> A total of 67 people participated: 59 students from 11 health disciplines and seven postlicensure clinicians and one trainee from five disciplines (e.g., occupational therapy, life skills coaching, early childhood education). Twenty-six participants answered both pre- and postworkshop surveys and reported a positive shift in their understanding of client and family perspectives, their roles in transition support, and other providers’ roles in transition support. After the workshop, learners felt more confident with transition support and interprofessional collaboration. The perspectives of the educators with lived experience aligned with the theater scripts and enhanced learners’ empathetic engagement with the topic. <strong>Discussion:</strong> The evidence-based teaching approach of readers’ theater and our coteaching model offered learners a unique opportunity to learn about the challenges clients and their families face at the time of transition to adulthood and identify their role in an interprofessional transition support. </p>
Self-Injury in Japanese Manga: A Content Analysis
Authors: Seko Yukari , Kikuchi Minako 
Published: January 2023

<p>This study explored representations of self-injury in Japanese manga (graphic novels). A content analysis of fifteen slice-of-life manga published between 2000-2017 was conducted, focusing on forty scenes that depict eighteen characters engaging in self-injury. Most depictions of self-injury reflect a stereotypical perception of “self-injurer,” a young girl cutting herself to cope with negative emotion. Characters receive informal support from friends and partners, while parents are portrayed as unsupportive and even triggering. An emergent trend was observed among manga targeting male readers to label selfinjuring women as “menhera” - mentally vulnerable damsels in distress - inviting a fetishistic gaze on the self-injuring female bodies. </p>

Published: January 2023

The effect of harvesting stages (mature green, half-ripe and full ripe) and storage conditions (zero energy cool chamber, wooden box and underground storage) on post-harvest quality and sensory acceptability of mango fruit was evaluated. Three harvesting stages of mango fruit were harvested and 10 kg of mango fruit was stored in three storage conditions until the end of the storage period. Spoilage and weight loss of mango fruit were recorded from storage in three-day intervals. All samples were analyzed for Post-harvest quality of mango fruit before and after storage at Arba Minch University, Abaya Campus Chemistry laboratory, and sensory acceptability was evaluated by using untrained 45 panelists at the end of the storage period. Completely Randomized Design in factorial arrangement with three replications was used to evaluate the shelf life and postharvest quality of mango fruit. Weight loss, spoilage, firmness and total soluble solids of mango fruit were increased while vitamin C, moisture content and titratable acidity were decreased with increased storage time. The vitamin C content of mango fruit was highest at half ripe in a zero energy cool chamber and was lowest at full ripe harvested in a wooden box after the end of the storage period. The highest overall acceptability of mango fruit was observed at the half-ripe harvested stage in zero energy cool chambers while the lowest was observed at the mature green harvested stage mango fruit in a wooden box after the end of the storage period. Based on the current study, half ripen mango fruit in zero energy cool chamber storage recorded the least percent of weight loss, spoilage amount, maximum shelf life and quality, especially vitamin C content and higher overall acceptability. Further study will be needed on the microbial quality of mango fruit in different harvesting stages and storage conditions during storage periods.

Agentes in Rebus в Римській імперії IV-V ст. від Р.Х.
Authors: Pukhovets Dmytro 
Published: January 2023

Мета статті: дослідити корпус agentes in rebus як важливий елемент організації політичної системи Пізньої Римської імперії.
Наукова новизна: охарактеризовано особливості комплектування, організації та керівництва корпусу agentes in rebus. Проаналізовано офіційні посадові обов’язки агентів на різних етапах їхнього кар’єрного шляху. Досліджено характер неофіційних доручень, які виконували агенти. Зроблено спробу визначення того, чи можна вважати корпус agentes in rebus римською секретною службою.
Висновки. У ході проведеного дослідження проаналізовані основні особливості організації корпусу agentes in rebus. Вони були цивільними чиновниками, хоча і зберігали основи військового формування. Підпорядковувались «агенти в справах» magister officiorum, хоча при цьому мали і безпосередніх начальників. Встановлено, що імператорські кодекси виділяють три основні категорії агентів: кур’єри, які розвозили імператорські постанови по імперії; curiosi, які були інспекторами державної поштової служби; principes officii, які очолювали секретаріати провідних провінційних чиновників рівня префектів преторія та вікаріїв. Паралельно з виконанням основної роботи agentes in rebus були інформаторами, шпигунами імператорів.
Визначено, що на практиці діяльність agentes in rebus час-від-часу виходила за межі функцій, представлених в імператорському законодавстві. Регулярно агентами застосовувалась практика побиття батогами та кидання до в’язниці людей, які вважалися підозрілими. У поодиноких випадках agentes займалися розвідкою за межами держави, очолювали посольства високого рівня, брали участь в арештах і навіть вбивствах високопосадових осіб, яких держава вважала своїми ворогами.
У результаті дослідження виявлено, що в сукупності проявів своєї діяльності схола agentes in rebus мала риси секретної служби, навіть при тому, що паралельно виконувала звичайні бюрократичні завдання. Діяльність корпусу часто негативно оцінювалася сучасниками з моральної точки зору: агентів звинувачували у корупції, несправедливих доносах задля кар’єрного зростання. Але при всіх мінусах наявність такої служби була потрібна державі, вона сприяла її централізації та повноцінному функціонуванню.
