title: Requirements on dance-driven 3-D camera interaction: A collaboration between dance, Graphic Design and Computer Science

authors: Jung, Doris

subjects: computer science

abstract: In this paper we describe our initial ideas towards research investigating dance-driven 3-D-camera interaction as a tool for creating holistic pieces of art for an enriched performance experience.
In the first part, we focus on the technical analysis of requirements on a set of input parameters for the dance input.
In the second part we explore requirements stemming from the creative themes envisaged.
In the discussion we synergize these requirements towards the requirements on a first prototype of the dance-driven 3-D-camera interaction.

title: I’ll do it may way: Three writers and their revision practices

authors: Dix, Stephanie Margaret

subjects: education

abstract: The diversity of students in today's classrooms has highlighted the need for teachers to recognize differences in the way students learn to write, as well as in the cultural and social experiences they bring to the learning situation. This article profiles three students and demonstrates how they constructed and revised their writing in different ways. The revision practices the author identified were deleting, substituting, adding text, and rewording or reorganizing text at the microlevel, as well as revising at the macrolevel (in which changes affected the meaning of the students' writing).
Findings were surprising: Not only did the young writers compose and revise their texts in quite different ways (just as adult writers do), but they were aware of the metacognitive decisions they made and confidently explained and justified these decisions. Difference in revision practices was especially evident in the way the writers worked through the planning, drafting, and presenting phases of the writing process. Differences were also seen in the way the writers reworked transactional and poetic text. This reflected teacher pedagogy and also the writers' flexibility and desire to establish particular language meanings.

title: Joseph Harris Smallman

authors: Hart, Philip

abstract: Born to a mining agent and trained as a mining surveyor, in 1864, less than a year after the birth of his first child, Smallman left England for New Zealand to establish a ‘Mining business’, promising that his family would join him once it was successful. But they were never asked to join him, and after 1870 he ceased to write to his wife. 
The ‘Mining business’ never eventuated, but in 1865 he prospected at Thames, unsuccessfully seeking alluvial gold. Although criticized for living off Maori and doing little prospecting, with his partner he investigated several areas of the Hauraki Peninsula, again unsuccessfully. When the Thames goldfield was opened, with his encouragement, two years later, he mined there for some years, proving himself to be a competent miner but not making his fortune. After working elsewhere, by the mid-1870s he was living with another man’s ‘half-caste’ wife on her land near Te Aroha, having five children with her. Happy to be described as a Pakeha Maori and closely associated with the local hapu, he supported them over land dealings and the development of the district. Despite spending most of his time farming, he remained interested in prospecting, and made some explorations in districts closed to Pakeha. After gold was found at Te Aroha, for a short time he worked with Maori partners in unprofitable claims.
Either before or after his second wife had a child by another man in 1886, he left New Zealand to return to his English family; and remarkably, despite his first wife knowing that his liaison had produced children, she accepted him back after his long absence, and they remained together for the rest of their lives.
