Generative Music editorial

An issue on generative music in Contemporary Music Review allows space to explore many of these controversies, and to explore the rich algorithmic scene in contemporary practice, as well as the diverse origins and manifestations of such a culture. A roster of interesting exponents from both academic and arts practice backgrounds are involved, matching the broad spectrum of current work. Contributed articles range from generative algorithms in live systems, from live coding to interactive music systems to computer games, through algorithmic modelling of longer-term form, evolutionary algorithms, to interfaces between modalities and mediums, in algorithmic choreography. A retrospective on the intensive experimentation into algorithmic music and sound synthesis at the Institute of Sonology in the 1960s and 70s creates a complementary strand, as well as an open paper on the issues raised by open source, as opposed to proprietary, software and operating systems, with consequences in the creation and archiving of algorithmic work.

Australian fly-in, fly-out operations: Impacts on communities, safety workers and their families

Background Australia’s mineral, resource and infrastructure sectors continues to expand as operations in rural and remote locations increasingly rely on fly-in, fly-out or drive-in, drive-out workforces in order to become economically competitive. The issues in employing these workforces are becoming more apparent and include a range of physical, mental, psychosocial, safety and community challenges. Objectives This review aims to consolidate a range of research conducted to communicate potential challenges for industry in relation to a wide variety of issues when engaging and using FIFO/DIDO workforces which includes roster design, working hours, fatigue, safety performance, employee wellbeing, turnover, psychosocial relationships and community concerns. Methods A wide literature review was performed using EBSCOhost and Google Scholar, with a focus on FIFO or DIDO workforces engaged within the resources sector. Results A number of existing gaps in the management of FIFO workforces and potential for future research were identified. This included the identification of various roster designs and hours worked across the resources industry and how to best understand the influences of roster swings, and work hours on fatigue, safety, psychological wellbeing and job satisfaction. Fatigue management, particularly in relation to travelling after extended work shifts can increase the risk for road safety and influence safety performance while at work due to a culmination of long hours, roster cycle and accumulated sleep debt. Further challenges associated with the engagement of this workforce include feelings of isolation, physiological and general health and lifestyle concerns. Conclusions FIFO workforces appear to be at an increased risk physically and mentally due to a wide range of influences of this unique lifestyle, particularly in relation to rosters, length of shift and feelings of community disengagement. Research and data collected has been limited in understanding the influences on employee engagement, satisfaction, retention and safety. Ensuring the challenges associated with FIFO employment are understood, addressed and communicated to workers and their families may assist.

Household Health and Cocoa Production: A Baseline Survey of Smallholder Farming Households in Western Region, Ghana

Background Chronic illness and premature mortality from malaria, water-borne diseases, and respiratory illnesses have long been known to diminish the welfare of individuals and households in developing countries. Previous research has also shown that chronic diseases among farming populations suppress labor productivity and agricultural output. As the illness and death toll from HIV/AIDS continues to climb in most of sub-Saharan Africa, concern has arisen that the loss of household labor it causes will reduce crop yields, impoverish farming households, intensify malnutrition, and suppress growth in the agricultural sector. If chronic morbidity and premature mortality among individuals in farming households have substantial impacts on household production, and if a large number of households are affected, it is possible that an increase in morbidity and mortality from HIV/AIDS or other diseases could affect national aggregate output and exports. If, on the other hand, the impact at the household farm level is modest, or if relatively few households are affected, there is likely to be little effect on aggregate production across an entire country. Which of these outcomes is more likely in West Africa is unknown. Little rigorous, quantitative research has been published on the impacts of AIDS on smallholder farm production, particularly in West Africa. The handful of studies that have been conducted have looked mainly at small populations in areas of very high HIV prevalence in southern and eastern Africa. Conclusions about how HIV/AIDS, and other causes of chronic morbidity and mortality, are affecting agriculture across the continent cannot be drawn from these studies. In view of the importance of agriculture, and particularly smallholder agriculture, in the economies of most African countries and the scarcity of resources for health interventions, it is valuable to identify, describe, and quantify the impact of chronic morbidity and mortality on smallholder production of important crops in West Africa. One such crop is cocoa. In Ghana, cocoa is a crop of national importance that is produced almost exclusively by smallholder households. In 2003, Ghana was the world’s second-largest producer of cocoa. Cocoa accounted for a quarter of Ghana’s export revenues that year and generated 15 percent of employment. The success and growth of the cocoa industry is thus vital to the country’s overall social and economic development. Study Objectives and Methods In February and March 2005, the Center for International Health and Development of Boston University (CIHD) and the Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness (DAEA) of the University of Ghana, with financial support from the Africa Bureau of the U.S. Agency for International Development and from Mars, Inc., which is a major purchaser of West African cocoa, conducted a survey of a random sample of cocoa farming households in the Western Region of Ghana. The survey documented the extent of chronic morbidity and mortality in cocoa growing households in the Western Region of Ghana, the country’s largest cocoa growing region, and analyzed the impact of morbidity and mortality on cocoa production. It aimed to answer three specific research questions. (1) What is the baseline status of the study population in terms of household size and composition, acute and chronic morbidity, recent mortality, and cocoa production? (2) What is the relationship between household size and cocoa production, and how can this relationship be used to understand the impact of adult mortality and chronic morbidity on the production of cocoa at the household level? The study population was the approximately 42,000 cocoa farming households in the southern part of Ghana’s Western Region. A random sample of households was selected from a roster of eligible households developed from existing administrative information. Under the supervision of the University of Ghana field team, enumerators were graduate students of the Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness or employees of the Cocoa Services Division. A total of 632 eligible farmers participated in the survey. Of these, 610 provided complete responses to all questions needed to complete the multivariate statistical analysis reported here.

Disabled legislators : disability and Irish colonial pathology in James Joyce's Ulysses

Why are there so many disabled characters in James Joyce's Ulysses? "Disabled Legislators" seeks to answer this question by exploring the variety and depth of disability's presence in Joyce's novel. This consideration also recognizes the unique place disability finds within what Lennard Davis calls "the roster of the disenfranchised" in order to define Joyce as possessing a "disability consciousness;" that is, an empathetic understanding (given his own eye troubles) of the damaged lives of the disabled, the stigmatization of the disabled condition, and the appropriation of disabled representations by literary works reinforcing normalcy. The analysis of four characters (Gerty MacDowell, the blind stripling, the onelegged sailor, and Stephen Dedalus) treats disability as a singular self-concept, while still making necessary associations to comparably created marginal identities-predominantly the colonial Other. This effort reevaluates how Ulysses operates in opposition to liberal Victorian paradigms, highlighting disability's connections to issues of gender, intolerance, self-identification and definition.

Le contrôle de l’activité du médecin en centre hospitalier

La pratique de la médecine en centre hospitalier est encadrée par une variété de normes qui résultent en un contrôle des activités cliniques du médecin. Ce mémoire présente une analyse du régime instauré par la Loi sur les services de santé et les services sociaux et ses règlements afin de dégager les différents mécanismes de contrôle des activités du médecin exerçant en centre hospitalier. La pratique du médecin sera fonction de son intégration à la structure administrative du centre hospitalier, telle que notamment prévue par un plan d’organisation et des ressources et un plan des effectifs médicaux et dentaires. Ces plans contiennent des balises générales qui auront à être considérées par l’établissement dès le recrutement de médecins et témoignent d’une préoccupation du législateur d’assurer une distribution cohérente de l’offre de soins et de services de santé à l’échelle de la province. Le rattachement du médecin à un département par l’octroi d’un statut et de privilèges de pratique rendra applicable une normativité particulière, mise en œuvre par le chef de département clinique, par exemple la liste de garde et les règles d’utilisation des ressources médicales et matérielles. La validité et les effets de la pratique par laquelle les médecins réaménagent entre eux l’exécution des obligations qui leur incombent par des ententes variées sera également abordée à la lumière de récents développements jurisprudentiels sur la question. La mise en place d’un mécanisme de traitement des plaintes et d’une procédure disciplinaire en centre hospitalier sera également abordée ainsi que la situation des différentes parties impliquées, tant en ce qui a trait aux garanties juridiques applicables que relativement à la possibilité de recours administratifs ou auprès du Tribunal administratif du Québec.

O ritual de desmaterialização dos objetos singularizados e a transformação da relação pessoa-objeto

A transformação da sociedade nos últimos anos faz contraponto ao desejo de posse e acumulação física dos consumidores. A realidade digital abre inúmeras possibilidades de consumo e tem modificado a relação dos indivíduos com os objetos físicos e as posses materializadas. Consequentemente, vários pesquisadores de consumo (BELK, 2013; BARDHI et al., 2012; MAGAUDDA, 2011, 2012) têm se dedicado ao estudo ​​da desmaterialização (o desaparecimento físico dos objetos). Embora estudos anteriores avancem na pesquisa sobre a singularização do objeto e sua re-commoditização (EPP; PRICE, 2010), contextos e processos em que indivíduos desmaterializam suas posses singularizadas carecem de mais pesquisas. A desmaterialização até aqui foi observada como sinônimo de digitalização (BELK, 2013) ou a transformação de objetos físicos em virtuais (MAGAUDDA, 2011). Em contraste, o presente trabalho analisa a desmaterialização como transcendendo o mundo digital. A desmaterialização é vista como o processo de ver as posses desaparecendo fisicamente da vida dos consumidores por meio de doação, venda, descarte ou digitalização. A desmaterialização pode ser uma forma de distanciamento físico, mantendo o valor imaterial, garantindo o acesso, salvaguardando a singularidade do objeto, e protegendo-o da comoditização. A contradição entre a materialização física e a liquidez na sociedade nos abre um promissor campo de estudo por elucidar como o processo de afastamento das posses influencia as transformações dos indivíduos (ROSTER, 2014; CHERRIER, 2010; MAGAUDDA, 2011, 2012; MOLESWORTH; DENEGRIT-KNOTT, 2012). Para compreensão do fenômeno, foram realizadas 11 entrevistas existencial-fenomenológicas com colecionadores de livros em diferentes fases do processo de desmaterialização. A Abordagem hermenêutica foi usada para compreender como as pressões da sociedade contemporânea modificam a forma como as pessoas interagem com os objetos singularizados. A análise revelou que a relação pessoa-objeto entre colecionadores e seus livros é permeada por sonhos e desejos. Ela existe em um espaço liminar entre o real e o imaginário. Este espaço liminar que o livro físico ocupa na mente dos proprietários é o elo que permite a desmaterialização. O valor do livro vem da sua capacidade de possuir e transferir o conhecimento imaterial. A relação que colecionadores tem com seus livros é essencialmente emocional, principalmente devido ao valor imaterial. Mas, por outro lado, a ligação física é o que torna difícil o ritual de desmaterialização. Quando colecionadores desmaterializam uma coleção de livros, eles enfrentam seus valores relativos à materialidade, ao apego e ao passado, e vivenciam a possibilidade de compartilhamento e transformação da relação com os objetos e outros seres humanos. Assim, a desmaterialização pode ser considerada como uma continuação do processo de autoconhecimento que começou com os rituais de materialização. Esta descoberta tem implicações significativas para a compreensão da natureza experiencial do consumo para os indivíduos. O presente trabalho aprofunda a compreensão da relação pessoa-objeto e a transformação das relações que os indivíduos estabelecem com outros objetos e o mundo ao seu redor.

Tramas de subjetivação: analítica da fabricação do PARFOR-Pedagogia-Campus de Bragança/UFPA

O modelo de formação de professores brasileiro refere-se à democratização do país e as mudanças sociais alavancadas na década de 1980, tendo como marco legal a Constituição de 1988 e as reformas educacionais e curriculares que a sucederam. Este trabalho constitui-se em uma análise arqueogenealógica foucaultiana das práticas discursivas arquitetadas sobre o curso de Pedagogia do Plano Nacional de Formação de Professores da Educação Básica (PARFOR) do Campus Universitário de Bragança – Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA). Partimos do estudo arqueológico das emergências históricas da formação de professores para localizarmos e darmos visibilidade a arena da formação docente como contingência contemporânea advinda de forças capilares que objetivam e, ao mesmo tempo, subjetivam o professor em formação. Sustentamo-nos na hipótese de que habitam, nesse jogo de saber-poder, tramas de subjetivação corporificadas no currículo sob em práticas de governamentalização. Tais tramas, por sua vez, culminam na produção de documentos dentre os quais alguns foram escolhidos para compor a análise crítica desse trabalho. Desse modo, objetivamos problematizar a formação enquanto fabricação do aluno PARFOR-Pedagogia, com ênfase no currículo elaborado pelo Campus de Bragança/UFPA visando percebê-lo em sua articulação com determinadas urgências de formação e regulação de professores. A pesquisa teve como fonte documentos que instalam a política de formação de professores no país, encarando-os como monumentos com efeitos na objetivação e subjetivação dos sujeitos, e formação de professores como prática histórica e dispositivo estratégico de governamentalidade. Organizando-se os documentos em subarquivos, a análise foi conduzida pela problematização – arqueológica e genealógica de Michel Foucault, articulada aos dispositivos de Gilles Deleuze e às práticas históricas de Paul Veyne. Fincado como ação afirmativa e conectado ao rol das políticas educacionais contemporâneas, o PARFOR apesar de ter impulsionado a formação em serviço, os sujeitos que dele fazem parte são objetivados ainda por prescrições curriculares destacadamente disciplinares e generalistas, descritas paradoxalmente no Projeto Pedagógico do Curso de Pedagogia e nos Planos de Curso como estratégia interdisciplinar de formação de professores. Concomitante a isso, os sujeitos são subjetivados por um devir minoritário em função do modelo estrutural que a política foi arquitetada, exercendo seu poder por práticas de resistência. De acordo com as práticas analisadas nesse estudo, o PARFOR-Pedagogia do Campus de Bragança/UFPA é fabricado por tramas históricas de subjetivação, as quais se sustentam tanto na govenamentalidade quanto em estratégias biopolíticas acionadas por dispositivos curriculares que forjam e ao mesmo tempo são forjados pelos jogos de saber-poder-resistência.

Reflexões e observações sobre as novas diretrizes curriculares e a sua influência na formação inicial do professor na universidade

With reference to curricular changes proposed by the CNE Resolution 1 /2002 and CNE 2/2002 on Teacher Education in Basic Education teaching degree - this study aims to analyze the new professional profile proposed in curriculum pedagogy , Physical Education , Science Biology , Mathematics , Physics and Geography . Within the curriculum guidelines was observed in a more normative articulated curriculum, focused on action-reflection- action. A guided design in practical rationality and the skills set without breaking the commitment of the public university with emancipation and quality education . Although there is this understanding we must also attend to the care that must be given to the new guidelines , based on the same reveal great concern with vocational training , with its instrumentation , with the pragmatic and utilitarian dimension of the training process . It is noteworthy that throughout the twentieth century in Brazil , where he fought for educational policies that were to solidify the construction of teacher identity , but the gains have largely remained restricted to the issue of educational reforms and a roster of disciplines , called pedagogical varnish . Therefore, this work is to deepen this thematic perspective , studying the identity of the teacher in the new curriculum design presented by undergraduate courses . Therefore , the central objective seeks to understand how the identity of teacher ( professional profile ) was presented in the proposals for teacher training , as well as the different elements that make up this identity process . Specifically if you want to ( a) identify the proposals of courses for Teachers of Primary Education , UNESP / RC - Institute of Biosciences and Geosciences and Exact Sciences - Biological Sciences , Physical Education , Physics , Geography , Mathematics and Pedagogy - the proposed profile and ( b ) analyze the fundamental knowledge that this professional listing the elements...
