La autoreferencialidad en el arte. El metalenguaje en el medio digital. L'autoreferencialitat en l'art. El metallenguatge en el mitjà digital.

Este artículo analiza las obras de algunos artistas digitales que utilizan los recursos propios del medio digital como mensaje central. Nuestra intención será exponer las múltiples formas de utilizar, desarrollar y manipular el metalenguaje. Primeramente, con la intención de comprender estas obras, se elabora un contexto en que se plantearán unos precedentes, para ver, en una segunda parte, cómo el metalenguaje en nuestra actualidad artística y digital vuelve a ser muy utilizado, de manera que llega a convertirse en una metodología característica del arte contemporáneo y de los medios digitales. Palabras clave aleatoriedad, simulación, glitch, net art, interfaz, reactividad, interactividad

L'art. 320 al. 2 CO: une règle compatible avec les dispositions sur la conclusion des contrats?

Le Tribunal fédéral et la doctrine majoritaire interprètent l'art. 320 al. 2 CO comme un cas où l'existence d'un contrat de travail peut être déduite de circonstances de fait indépendantes de tout consensus. Il s'agirait donc là d'une dérogation aux art. 1 ss CO. Dans cette contribution, nous proposons une conception de l'art. 320 al. 2 CO compatible avec le mécanisme ordinaire de conclusion des contrats. En l'occurrence, le contrat de travail serait conclu par actes concluants sur la base d'un accord de droit, c'est-à-dire en appliquant le principe de la confiance. Alors que la lettre et le but de protection de l'art. 320 al. 2 CO semblent plutôt neutres à cet égard, l'histoire et la systématique de cet alinéa plaident clairement en faveur de la conception ici proposée.

Public Art, strategies for the regeneration of public space

This paper discusses some of the key concepts in the consideration of public art as a central element in urban regeneration processes, especially in reference to its role in the processes of citizen participation.

The importance of myth in contemporary art: myth, poetry and women

This project is intended to prove the prevalent importance of myth in contemporary art and, more specifically, to highlight how myth and poetry have shaped and reflected ideas of womanhood over time. A selection of significant literary periods, authors and works from the Renaissance to our days have been chosen in order to provide a wide scope of the evolution that the portrayal of women has undergone. Special attention has been paid to the way in which a group of selected poets have contributed to the construction and deconstruction of traditional Judeo-Christian and Greco-Roman myths strongly attached to patterns of male dominance.

Hyperuricaemia and gout: state of the art and future perspectives.

Major progress has been made in the past decade in understanding the pathogenesis and treatment of gout. These advances include identification of the genetic and environmental risk factors for gout, recognition that gout is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease, elucidation of the pathways regulating the acute gout attack and the development of novel therapeutic agents to treat both the acute and chronic phases of the disease. This review summarises these advances and highlights the research agenda for the next decade.

La douleur prolongée chez le nouveau-né: étude de cas [Prolonged pain in neonates: retrospective analysis].

INTRODUCTION: infants hospitalised in neonatology are inevitably exposed to pain repeatedly. Premature infants are particularly vulnerable, because they are hypersensitive to pain and demonstrate diminished behavioural responses to pain. They are therefore at risk of developing short and long-term complications if pain remains untreated. CONTEXT: compared to acute pain, there is limited evidence in the literature on prolonged pain in infants. However, the prevalence is reported between 20 and 40 %. OBJECTIVE : this single case study aimed to identify the bio-contextual characteristics of neonates who experienced prolonged pain. METHODS : this study was carried out in the neonatal unit of a tertiary referral centre in Western Switzerland. A retrospective data analysis of seven infants' profile, who experienced prolonged pain ,was performed using five different data sources. RESULTS : the mean gestational age of the seven infants was 32weeks. The main diagnosis included prematurity and respiratory distress syndrome. The total observations (N=55) showed that the participants had in average 21.8 (SD 6.9) painful procedures that were estimated to be of moderate to severe intensity each day. Out of the 164 recorded pain scores (2.9 pain assessment/day/infant), 14.6 % confirmed acute pain. Out of those experiencing acute pain, analgesia was given in 16.6 % of them and 79.1 % received no analgesia. CONCLUSION: this study highlighted the difficulty in managing pain in neonates who are exposed to numerous painful procedures. Pain in this population remains underevaluated and as a result undertreated.Results of this study showed that nursing documentation related to pain assessment is not systematic.Regular assessment and documentation of acute and prolonged pain are recommended. This could be achieved with clear guidelines on the Assessment Intervention Reassessment (AIR) cyclewith validated measures adapted to neonates. The adequacy of pain assessment is a pre-requisite for appropriate pain relief in neonates.
