A busca de linguagens contemporâneas em artes: reflexões na universidade a partir de Centro de Pesquisa Plástica

This work is about the extension project “Plastic Research Centre”, developed at Unesp (Bauru/São Paulo/Brasil) by the author along with the students of Artistic Education (Plastic Arts). Aiming to encourage the students on supports and alternative techniques, the Audiovisual and Visual Arts Study Group - GRAVA was created as a place for reflexion and creation. The group has been seeking a personal language, improving it as the means to communicate its interpretation of the world are investigated, being it in the urban space or in cultural and virtual centres. By extending the university knowledge to the local community, it is intended to motivate the student’s research along with the professoriate and promote the creation process and artistic works focusing the group’s view on the context it is inserted.

Análise dos parâmetros antropométricos da cabeça dos militares da força aérea brasileira no projeto de capacetes balísticos

The study of the physical man characteristics and their variations have caught the man's interests since the ancient age. In Brazil, there are no studies which define the anthropometric profile of the Brazilian's head, hindering the development of ergonomic designs. One problem that occurs in the Brazilian armed forces is the use of protective helmets made with measurements of other countries, which causes great discomfort. Thus, this study aims to conduct a study to determine the anthropometric measurements of the head of the Brazilian Air Force military, assisting in the production of helmets more suitable. Therefore, it is presented ananthropometric survey in 576 students of the School of Aeronautics Expert, 286 females and 290 males, aged between 17 and 36 years. The study showed that the differences found between genders are less than 5%. In addition to the fact that the helmet Tues adjustments, there is no need for production of different helmets in relation to gender, but some changes are necessary measures in circumference and shape of the helmet.

Instâncias de consagração na cibercultura: um estudo sobre a atuação do internauta no MySpace

With new technologies, there are fields of unprecedented artistic legitimation and consecration. On the Internet, MySpace is used as a social network whose peculiarity lies in the interactivity of between artists (established and independent) users and non-artists. The website has revealed new names in the music scene from the popularity they gained by its peers. To see how the communication happens within that environment, was chosen the band profile Restart, whose audience is the majority of MySpace teen (youth 12 to 17 years). The analysis of this article is part of a broader research and the results already obtained allow us to see, within the limits of the selected area, that the Internet not only introduces a new field of action, but new instances of artistic consecration.

A estética japonesa na cultura brasileira: reflexões a partir de um estudo etnofotográfico sobre a performance ritual da festa da Cerejeira de Garça-SP

Aiming to understand the Japanese aesthetic in Brazilian culture and to produce a photographic exhibition of artistic and ethnographic nature, we performed a symbolic exegesis of the ritual performance of Garça Cherry Festival - SP (Brazil). The event takes place annually and is held in memory and honor of oriental culture. The festival features various elements of Japanese culture through expressive forms such as dance, music, costumes, martial arts and cooking. Therefore, the study was based on the anthropology of performance and visual anthropology with regard to symbolic exegesis of the party and look artistic and ethnographic photographic records of the proceedings. Such procedures supported the realization of artistic display that contributed, in turn, in promoting the local culture to a wider audience, and, methodologically, have contributed in visual identification and interpretation of the cultural elements of the ceremony.

Fayga Ostrower: estudos sobre a pesquisa plástica e teórica nos processos criativos

The way we look express our soul, so there is no way to disregard the presence of intuitive processes in the creation of any work, like say Fayga Ostrower. Based on the theories of the artist, intends to investigate how their own texts read his plastic production, heavily influenced by German Expressionism. The concernment of the research is in the approach how their publications favor the understanding of artistic making as a moment against the intuitive and the fullness of the original creation and true to the thought of the artist.

A aprendizagem do desenho e da escrita: uma experiência com ideogramas japoneses no ensino fundamental

The aim of this paper is to gather research information and studies posted about the importance of social environment in the development of symbolic systems on children. Languages verbal, visual and written are interrelated representation systems, although each one has its own characteristics and elements. The objective of this paper is to elucidate the importance of linking the various existing types of language and therefore the importance of a coordinate approach also in the teaching-learning situations of these systems. The work also intends to disclose how thin is the line that separates writing of drawing, both of them as representative systems. As well as to show how visual information and language are intrinsically linked as thought happens by the connections between them. The work includes the report of an activity with Japanese ideograms done in the author's teacher's training at formal education. It also approaches pictographic, creative and poetic aspects of ideograms that brings up new ways of thinking and representing symbolically just like the methods of artistic language

New lightweight optimization method applied in parts made by selective laser sintering and polyjet technologies

[EN]The continuous evolution of materials and technologies of Additive Manufacturing (AM) has led to a competitive production process even for functional parts. The capabilities of these technologies for manufacturing complex geometries allow the definition of new designs that cannot be obtained with any other manufacturing processes. An application where this capability can be exploited is the lightening of parts using internal structures. This allows to obtain more efficient parts and, at the same time, reduce the costs of material and manufacturing time. A new lightweight optimization method to optimize the design of these structures and minimize weight while keeping the minimal mechanical properties is presented in this paper.

Dal teatro alla performance e ritorno. La svolta performativa nel teatro contemporaneo e la svolta teatrale nella performance art

Il fulcro tematico e concettuale della tesi consiste nel rapporto complesso, paradossale e spesso anche controverso esistente fra il teatro e la performance (art) – e cioè il rapporto fra i concetti di “teatralità” e di “performatività”. L’attenzione è posta su quelle correnti nelle arti performative contemporanee che tendono allo scioglimento delle nozioni di genere, disciplina, tecnica e autorialità e che mettono in questione lo status stesso dell’opera performativa (lo spettacolo) in quanto prodotto esclusivamente estetico, cioè spettacolare. Vengono esaminate – prelevando rispettivamente dal campo del teatro, della danza e della performance art – le pratiche di Jerzy Grotowski e Thomas Richards, Jérôme Bel e Marina Abramović. Quello che accomuna queste pratiche ben diverse tra loro non è soltanto la problematica del rapporto fra teatralità e performatività ma soprattutto l’aspetto particolarmente radicale e assiduo (e anche paradossale) del loro doppio sforzo, che consiste nello spingere la propria disciplina oltre ogni confine prestabilito e nello stesso tempo nel cercare di ri-definire i suoi codici fondanti e lo statuto ontologico che la distinguerebbero dalle altre discipline performative. Sono esaminate anche diverse teorizzazioni della performance con particolare attenzione a quei contributi che mettono in luce (e in questione) il delicato rapporto fra il teatro e la performance (art) attraverso una (ri)concettualizzazione e comparazione dei termini di teatralità e di performatività. La tesi esamina l’evoluzione della comprensione di quel rapporto all’interno del campo teorico-storico e artistico che inizialmente riflette la tendenza a percepire il rapporto in termini di opposizione e addirittura esclusione per approdare col tempo a una visione più riconciliante e complementare. Le radicali pratiche contemporanee fra il teatro e la performance rappresentano forse una nuova forma-processo performativa specifica e autonoma – che potrebbe essere definita tout court “performance” – e con cui viene definitivamente superato il progetto teatrale modernista?
