The construction of the museological object

"Exhibiting is or should be to work against ignorance, especially against the most refractory of all ignorance: the pre-conceived idea of stereo typed culture. To exhibit is to take a calculated risk of disorientation - in the etymological sense : ( to lose your bearings), disturbs the harmony, the evident , and the consensus, that constitutes the common place ( the banal). Needless to say however it is obvious that an exhibition that deliberately tries to scandalise will create an inverted perversion which results in an obscurantist pseudo-luxury - culture ... between demagogy and provocation, one has to find visual communication's subtle itinerary. Even though an intermediary route is not so stimulating : as Gaston Bachelard said "All the roads lead to Rome, except the roads of compromise."

Even though an intermediary route is not so stimulating: as Gaston Bachelard said "All the roads lead to Rome, except the roads of compromise." It is becoming ever more evident that museums have undergone changes that are noticeable in numerous areas. As well as the traditional functions of collecting, conserving and exhibiting objects. museums have tried to become a means of communication, open and aware of the worries of modern society. In order to do this , it has started to utilise modern technology now available and lead by the hand of "marketing" and modern business management.

Série: musée selon la museólogie sociale

MUSÉE = Espace intérieur ou extérieur présentant des sujets ou des objets ayant acquis, par leur interprétation, une signification particulière méritant leur exposition ou leur transmission sous forme de communication visuelle ou plurimédiatique, le mouvement privilégiant l’expression directe du groupe social concerné, l’animation culturelle la provocation d’un débat, plutôt que la seule exposition.

Explorando o teste de provocação com oxigénio como modelo de avaliação da microcirculação

A microcirculação cutânea surgiu, nos últimos anos, como uma alternativa pratica e acessível para o estudo da circulação periférica. Técnicas não-invasivas, como a Fluxometria por Laser Doppler (FLD), a Evaporimetria e a Gasimetria transcutânea em associação a testes de provocação têm transformado a circulação cutânea num atraente modelo de investigação. Este estudo foi aplicado a um grupo de voluntárias jovens saudáveis (n = 8, (21,6 ± 2,6) anos) respirando uma atmosfera de 100 % oxigénio durante 10 minutos. Este teste permitiu-nos avaliar a resposta circulatória na microcirculação do membro inferior. As técnicas de medição incluíram o fluxo sanguíneo local por FLD, a pO2 transcutânea (tc) e a Perda Transepidérmica de Água (PTEA) por evaporimetria. A análise de dados revela que tc-pO2 e FLD se alteraram significativamente durante o teste. Um perfil de evolução recíproca foi registrado para FLD e PTEA, que parece apoiar dados anteriores de que as alterações no fluxo sanguíneo local podem influenciar a função de “barreira” epidérmica. Este modelo parece adequado para caracterizar a microcirculação do membro inferior in vivo.
