Aparências da forma e forma do espaço: análise da configuração espacial de residências unifamiliares dos anos 1970 em João Pessoa PB

Assuming that the form of a building shell and its content the spatial form are distinct dimensions of architecture - however indivisible and interdependent -, this study focus, in the light of the Social Logic of Space (HILLIER; HANSON, 1984), on the intrinsic properties through which domestic space was structured in a sample of single-family dwellings built in João Pessoa (PB) during the 1970s - when the vocabulary of modern architecture still prevailed in Brazil though sharing the urban scene with other architectural trends -, in order to investigate regularities or divergences underlying their conception. These dwellings were originally classified (ARAÚJO, 2010a) in five categories defined according to the form of their building shells and to their prevailing construction techniques: (1) Brazilian modern legacy (considered as truly Brazilian modern style); (2) Paulista architecture (that refers to the modern production of São Paulo, Brazil, from the 1950s through the 1970s); (3) experiences of rationalization and prefabrication ; (4) experiences of adaptation to the climate (referring to a design strongly influenced by the hot and humid climate of North-eastern Brazil); and (5) hybrid (to account for a kind of stylistic hybridism that includes formal attributes, which evoke our colonial past). This study aims to determine, through the analyses of nineteen cases that represent each category, whether this taxonomy corresponds to distinct modes of spatial configuration. This research therefore proposes an approach to the classification of domestic architecture based on topological properties. The dwellings spatial organization was represented, quantified and analyzed, their spatial properties explored in consonance with one another and with the literature. Results pointed out that there is no evidence of a reciprocal relationship between the formal look of the built shells and their respective spatial structures

Tecnologia encarnada: entre a hipertecnologia e um conhecimento estético do cuidar

Introdução: Os sistemas de saúde estão a enfrentar uma realidade de radical intensidade biotecnológica, em que a digitalização ocupa um lugar central na prestação de cuidados. A inovação tecnológica e a cyborguização do humano devem traduzir-se em novos conceitos do cuidar, em que a ontologia cyborg tem um lugar central. Objectivos: Através de um enquadramento conceptual e tendo em conta os referentes teóricos da enfermagem sobre o cuidar, pretende-se estruturar uma análise epistemológica sobre a tecnologia, a ontologia cyborg e novos conceitos de "Cuidar em Enfermagem Metodologia: Revisão integrada de literatura, análise reflexiva e conceptual de quadros teóricos referenciais em enfermagem. Resultados: A investigação recente neste domínio baseia-se num pressuposto essencialista que remete para uma determinada conceção de "Tecnologia" enquanto aparato instrumental redutor, numa abordagem epistemológica positivista e mecanicista da tecnociência. As tecnologias de ponta aplicadas à enfermagem (onde se incluem as tecnologias de informação, plataformas digitais informáticas, sistemas de e-health, tele-enfermagem) são consideradas nesta perspetiva pragmática, como algo neutro, preexistente, uma mera ferramenta ou utensílio facilitador ao dispor dos enfermeiros. A análise dos discursos científicos assim construídos revela a adoção de uma visão instrumental da tecnologia. Afirma-se a clivagem entre pessoas e máquinas, a absoluta distinção entre tecnologia e a condição humana, num hiato entre objetos "técnicos" e objectos "naturais". Conclusões: A clivagem dicotómica entre "Tecnologia" e "Cuidado centrado na Pessoa" é artificial, fragmentária e contraria uma conceção integradora do cuidar. A dimensão estética no cuidar em enfermagem pressupõe a plena assunção da ontologia Cyborg. A conceção de uma "tecnologia encarnada" permite integrar na relação do cuidado uma hermenêutica do descentramento, incorporando, nos fenómenos alvo da intervenção de enfermagem, as paisagens relacionais, no sentido de relationscapes de Erin Manning (2013), onde os processos tecnológicos de saúde e doença e os cuidados são efetivamente vividos.

Relación entre la ingesta de sal y la presión arterial en pacientes hipertensos

Introducción: La hipertensión arterial resistente o refractaria al tratamiento supone un serio problema de salud pública y aunque, no están claros los mecanismos por los que se produce esta resistencia, se sospecha que el consumo de sodio puede jugar un papel importante en el mantenimiento de la misma. Objetivo: Determinar si los pacientes con hipertensión resistente toman sodio oculto en los alimentos ingeridos en su dieta; así como relacionar este consumo con sus hábitos dietéticos. Pacientes y Métodos: Se estudiaron 32 pacientes con una media de edad de 74,25±6,38 años, (65,6% hombres y 34,4% mujeres). Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal mediante entrevista estructurada sobre consumo de alimentos. Se estudió: edad, género, estado civil, presión arterial, responsable de la elaboración de las comidas, índice de masa corporal (IMC), consumo de sodio oculto en la dieta y percepción de los pacientes sobre su consumo de sodio. Resultados: Se encontró una ingesta media real de 3693,56±2330,97 mg de sodio. En el 59,4% de los casos las comidas las elaboraba otra persona diferente al paciente, siendo mayor el consumo de sodio en estos pacientes (3.709,44±529,37 frente a 3.677,69±649,27 mg. Respecto a la percepción sobre la cantidad de sodio ingerida, el 9,4% decían no tomar nada, el 56,3% poco, el 21,9% lo normal y el 12,5% bastante. Los que decían no tomar nada de sodio y lo normal, el mayor aporte lo hacían durante la cena; y los que decían tomar poco sodio y bastante, era en el almuerzo. Se encontró correlación significativa entre ingesta de sodio total e IMC (r=0,411, p & lt0,05). No se encontró relación entre consumo de sodio y hipertensión arterial. Conclusiones: Al menos en la muestra estudiada, no existe relación entre ingesta de sodio y presión arterial; existe una relación directa entre consumo de sodio y la persona que cocina. Por otro lado, la percepción que tienen estos pacientes respecto a su consumo de sodio es adecuada.

Presente: um projeto de futuro sobre um passado

PRESENTE é um projecto fotográfico que olha o futuro a partir do instante presente com o objectivo não só de acondicionar um passado, neste caso sobre a Guerra Colonial, mas também com o objectivo de o inocular nas futuras gerações. Nesse sentido considera-se fundamental começar por se reflectir sobre a actual fragilidade da imagem fotográfica, quer enquanto crença quer enquanto construtora de ficções, tanto mais que em qualquer relação que se estabeleça entre objectos animados e objectos não animados, estes se podem inter-relacionar enquanto sistemas simbólicos de representação. Assim esta dissertação propõe a construção de um projecto fotográfico que, através do seu apuro processual, vai explorar a criação de mecanismos de recolha da memória material e imaterial hoje sobrevivente à Guerra Colonial bem como procurar uma forma significativa de a transmitir para o futuro na forma de exposição pública.

Detectives de palavras: uma abordagem ao desenvolvimento da criatividade através da escrita

O projecto de intervenção pedagógica “Detectives de Palavras: uma abordagem ao desenvolvimento da criatividade através da escrita” remete-nos para uma análise acerca da importância da criatividade no mundo actual, como capacidade pessoal e social. Partindo da ideia de que a criatividade é o produto da interacção entre o domínio, o campo e a pessoa (Csikszentmihalyi, 1988) e de que a imaginação, a originalidade e a expressão são características essenciais do processo criativo (Bellón, 1998) desenvolveu-se um projecto direccionado para crianças em idade escolar com o intuito de desenvolver o pensamento criativo assim como despertar a motivação para a escrita e para a leitura. No presente projecto, são trabalhadas com os intervenientes algumas estratégias de Escrita Criativa passando, as crianças, a incorporarem o papel de Detectives de Palavras. Cada criança possui um kit pedagógico-didáctico de construção/investigação de histórias. Este kit é constituído por uma pasta de detective que contém alguns objectos utilizados por escritores e por detectives, tais como blocos de notas, lupas, pasta arquivadora de textos, cartões de identificação, entre outros, que podem ser capazes de ajudar as crianças a desenvolverem as suas ideias. Além de ser essencial avaliar o desenrolar do projecto, ou seja, o processo, também é importante avaliar o produto, neste caso, os textos das crianças. Contudo, avaliar a criatividade é uma tarefa complexa e muito subjectiva, por isso, esta avaliação baseia-se nos quatro factores que, de acordo com Guilford (1950) e Torrance (1972), estão envolvidos no processo criativo: a flexibilidade, a originalidade, a fluência e a elaboração.

O processo de urbanização de Mossorò: dos processos históricos à estrutura urbana atual

The general objective of this academic work is to analyze the relationship between the territorial division and the urban expansion process of Mossoró city, understood here as the production and occupation of space. The urban expansion in Mossoró, since its formation as settlement in 1772 until current days, identifies with the Brazilian urbanization process whose growth is determined by the capitalist development. Thus, the expansion was determined by several economical specializations imposed by the territorial division of work which occurs at an interregional level, and, sometimes at an international level. Then, each specialization determined a moment of the urban expansion of the city, as follows: a) The cattle farmer specialization, between 1772 and 1857, when the urban expansion was shy, is summarized to a commercial square that received goods from Aracati aiming to cover a wide rural area; b) The commercial emporium specialization, between 1857 and 1930, when the urban expansion took an important impulse with the concentration of public and private capitals; c) The salt industry and the agricultural-industrial exporter specialization inside a state of development policy, between 1930 and 1970, when the urban expansion, joined to the settlement of the working class in the urban soil, developed along an important axis -the railway; d) The render of services specialization inside a state of intervention policy, between 1970 and 1990, when the urban expansion was characterized by the accelerated growth rhythm, by the reuse of some spaces, and by space segregation of demanding people; e) The render of services policy inside a neoliberal state policy, since 1990 until current days, when the urban expansion reduced its rhythm abruptly, when only small alterations occurred in the existing spaces. It focused on social policies and on several slums eradication programs. Finally, the territorial structure is deeply articulated with others, no territorial, but economical, social and political, which happens at a national, regional and local rate. Only within a historical and conceptual panorama, it was possible to explain the urban expansion in Mossoró from its formation in 1772 until current days. Therefore, this work is a several discipline analysis of the urbanization process existing in Mossoró

Goal detection using laser range finder for goalkeeper and striker from CAMBADA team

For a robot be autonomous and mobile, it requires being attached with a set of sensors that helps it to have a better perception of the surrounding world, to manage to localize itself and the surrounding objects. CAMBADA is the robotic soccer team of the IRIS research group, from IEETA, University of Aveiro, that competes in the Middle-Size League of RoboCup. In competition, in order to win, the main objective of the game it's to score more goals than the conceded, so not conceding goals, and score as much as possible it's desirable, thus, this thesis focus on adapt an agent with a better localization capacity in defensive and offensive moments. It was introduced a laser range finder to the CAMBADA robots, making them capable of detecting their own and the opponent goal, and to detect the opponents in specific game situations. With the new information and adapting the Goalie and Penalty behaviors, the CAMBADA goalkeeper is now able to detect and track its own goal and the CAMBADA striker has a better performance in a penalty situation. The developed work was incorporated within the competition software of the robots, which allows the presentation, in this thesis, of the experimental results obtained with physical robots on the laboratory field.

Aspiración de cuerpos extraños en la emergencia del hospital pediátrico: Manejo de diez casos y actualización

Introducción: la aspiración de un cuerpo extraño es causa importante y prevenible de morbimortalidad en la infancia, principalmente en menores de 3 años. En ausencia de un adulto que presencie el episodio de sofocación o atragantamiento, el diagnóstico puede dificultarse, retrasándolo. Objetivo: conocer las características clínicas e imagenológicas de los pacientes que al arribo al DEP se planteó el diagnóstico de obstrucción de vía aérea (OVA) por cuerpo extraño (CE) y actualización. Metodología: estudio descriptivo, observacional y retrospectivo de las historias clínicas de 10 niños ingresados a la URE del DEP con diagnóstico de OVA por CE entre el 1 de enero de 2010 y el 31 de diciembre de 2013, analizando edad, sexo, hora del accidente, procedencia, lugar, medio social, presencia de adulto, examen físico, imagenología, naturaleza del CE, localización anatómica, maniobras practicadas, primera asistencia, tiempo hasta su expulsión/extracción, complicaciones y destino de los pacientes. Resultados: siete de los diez niños fueron varones; edades entre 6 meses y 13 años; nueve de Montevideo y área metropolitana. En los casos presenciados por adultos -nueve- se consultó dentro de las 24 horas. En siete se trató de material orgánico (carne, fruta, semillas) durante la alimentación (almuerzo, cena), y en tres ocasiones no orgánico, uno radioopaco. Nueve niños estaban en su hogar y uno en la escuela. La primera asistencia en seis casos consistió en maniobras realizadas por familiares (barrido de boca con el dedo) o personal de salud (maniobra de Heimlich) siendo inefectivas. En ocho casos los hallazgos del examen físico coincidieron con el diagnóstico planteado. La radiología mostró el CE o signos indirectos. La eliminación espontánea ocurrió en dos ocasiones; en dos se extrajo en el DEP, y en seis mediante broncoscopio rígido bajo anestesia general, de bronquio fuente derecho en cuatro y de bronquio fuente izquierdo en dos. No se registraron complicaciones y todos los pacientes fueron dados de alta. Comentarios: es una patología de baja incidencia. Distribución bimodal, con picos a los ocho meses y a los ocho años, en domicilio y a predominio de material orgánico. Alta participación de adultos sin hábitos de puericultura y de medio social deficitario puede incidir en su ocurrencia. El síndrome asfíctico con confirmación posterior de aspiración estuvo presente en nueve casos. La exploración física y la imagenología fueron de utilidad. Las maniobras que buscan desobstruir la vía aérea fueron inefectivas. La extracción en block quirúrgico con broncoscopio rígido continúa siendo de elección. No se registró morbimortalidad inmediata al episodio. Se debe insistir en la divulgación de medidas preventivas en padres y cuidadores así como contar con regionalización y transporte pediátricos adecuados.

Gerald Thomas e a (des)encenação do mundo : as paisagens visuais como grafia de intertextualidades, citações e hipertextos

This work is the result of a personal uneasy about the form and development taken by contemporaneous theater concerning its relationship with other media to create new hybrid organisms and organizing itself through new possibilities, connections, as well as with different levels of arrangements in the construction of the scene. The purpose of this research is to study the connections between the scene and the media within the context of the formation of hybrid organism wich is the key element. That stands for an aesthetic characteristic of the post-dramatic condition of contemporary theatre in Brazil. Thus, this work will investigate the concept of visual landscapes within the context of Gerald Thomas Sievers work in Brazil in the period of the first decade of twenty-first century having the play Rainha Mentira (2007) (Queen Liar, 2007) as the main empirical object of analysis, discussion and application of the framework developed in the text

O tema no processo criativo da Asmarias Companhia de Teatro

Seted in the context of the educational actions of Casa Renascer, a non-governmental organization, located in Natal city, which had as its primary purpose the care with children and adolescent girls in vulnerable situations, this research is based on describing and analysis on the topic in the creative process developed by Asmarias Theatre Company from 1993 to 2003, a process that culminated in the assembly of the dramatic text, Mateus e Mateusa, of Qorpo-Santo. In this research is focused on the route of the Theatre Company has done so much theater in its early history (1993), with the practice of reading and dramatic writing in the preparation of didactic material called Primer of Inventions, as in the procedures with theater street and forum theater (1997 to 2000) to the reunion in 2001 of seven teenagers which articulated the last group formation next to the assembly's text Qorpo-Santo (2002- 2003). During the development on this learning, the evolution of the creative process based on institutional theme when asked if one can provide moments of educational experiences through the traditional form of theater, with reference to the issues inherent in the dramatic texts considered classics. The debate on the issue through research and analysis in its descriptions and finds in the interim between his past and present indications that lead to conclusive guises. The methodology, which is guided by research, is based in theatrical archeology (PAVIS, 2005), the evidential paradigm (GINZBURG, 1989) and the second approaches the experiences narrated by Benjamin (1985). We selected documents in formats of written texts, photographic and filmed, and identified in these files, marks and tracks which took us to understand the subject in the creative process of Asmarias Theatre Company during the tests with the dramatic text, Mateus and Mateusa, of Qorpo-Santo. In this theatrical practice, located in the field of the theater pedagogy, it appears that the actions across thematic theater in the Casa Renascer and allowed the formation of critical aesthetic perspective and personal social dimension of the subjects involved. The theme has gained a significant proportion in the theatrical activity as a guiding point of the creative process of Theatre Company, taking in the theatrical art form. In this sense, the creative process with the dramatic and classic texts won the educational dimension to address the issue in the movement of the drama as the focus of individual creation which added to the collective universe of the interactive game

A experiência no Tai Chi: possibilidades para pensar o corpo sem órgãos e a preparação do ator

Although research in the field of performing arts has substantially advanced over the last century, the actor, in general, still needs a repertoire of specific references to guide or support his practice. But how the actor must work the material foundation of his art that is his own body? Starting from a prerogative of a idiosyncrasy that is part of theater, this study intend, from the description and reflection about one physical experience with the Tai Chi, to weave relations between this experience and the possible developments of acting preparation. This research is also aimed to highlight the elements of connection between the principles that rules Tai Chi and the body without organs, idealized by Artaud, with the perspective of pointing possible contributions for actors work. The work presented here refers to a qualitative study that considers the body experience in practice of Tai Chi as a reference to dialogue and reflect about the acting preparation. The process of acting preparation presupposes a constant redoing of the body by certain practices. My experience with Tai Chi within this research allowed me verify that the work from established body techniques could be a way of technical preparation for the actor. As the body conscience expands, Tai Chi promotes a greater freedom of creation and expression, giving the actor the possibility of experience the body without organs, the artistic equivalent of the daily body, present, conscious, the organic foundation of emotions, in wich it is possible the materiality of ideas

Escarcéu e escassez no teatro de Mossoró: percursos e percalços de uma dramaturgia na rua

This research is a result of the theatrical Street show named A Árvore dos Mamulengos, an appropriation of the drama text by Vital Santos, this presentation was done from 1989 to 2001, with the Companhia Escarcéu de Teatro, in the city of Mossoró/RN, Brazil. The intention here is to mapping the voices and memories of actors and actresses who have experienced the performance, the developments and achievements which resulted from twelve years of the season. In our study, we consider the importance of the choice for the open space such as streets and squares as the main local for representation considering it as a catalyst factor of aesthetic choice. However, we`ve consider the option for the collaborative process as the methodology staging by interpreters, as well as, the social and cultural determinants that were taking place deeming the realization of the spectacle

O entre do carvão ao corpo - em - arte de ator-brincante

I propose with this paper a reflection on the experiences contained in the creation of the body- in-art (FERRACINI, 2006a, b) that originated the show Rosmaninhos... This process was developed within the coletivo UZUME teatro from João Pessoa PB, through recreations and resignifications of the corporeity and physicality contained in the steps, loas, aboios, songs and choreography observed in the manners that Mestre Zequinha plays in his group of Cavalo Marinho (Sea Horse), resident in the city of Bayeux - PB, and starting from the appropriation of the text Hamlet of William Shakespeare. The body-in-art is understood in this work as a vectorial body that dilates its daily functionality, recognizing a potential learning area capable to generate creative escape lines that destabilize the "subject centered in an individuality and identity" (FOUCAULT apud FERRACINI, 2006b, p.14), being open to the differentiation of itself, indicating the possible existence of an itself-other and of the exchange-in-art space. This process of construction of the body-in-art based on Master Zequinha s ways of playing the Cavalo Marinho was methodically guided by the appropriation of the coletivo UZUME teatro of the stages of Observation, Codification and Theatricalization contained in the technique of corporal mimeses proposed by the LUME Teatro (Campinas - SP). That use resulted in two phases: Active Observation and Composition of the body-in-art. Through the repetition of these aesthetic matrixes of the Cavalo Marinho, the actors discovered actions that when, codified and organized, can configure their body-in-art, which created a vectorial exchange-in-art space to what was found in the Cavalo Marinho party. This search proposed the means of potentiating the actors' work when it comes to a preparation that allowed to dilate the scenic presence and stimulated the production of actions, which culminated in the mounting of the show Rosmaninhos...

O ator que canta um conto: a manipulação de parâmetros musicais na voz do ator

This research started with an investigation about the theatrical speaking. Through an empirical methodology that analyzed a practical experience of creating a play and bibliographical research, the actress/researcher investigated ways to manipulate musical parameters as tools in the creation process of the actor s voice. The actress/researcher attempted to connect theory and practice, moved by the desire to find a vocal expression in theater that unfolds as living and transforming movement. This dissertation also contains the report of pedagogical experiences, in which the actress/researcher explored strategies to teach the appropriation of musical parameters in the construction of the vocal work of the actor. Considering that speaking in theater is closer to singing than everyday speech, she concluded that the actor may compose music as a music composer does in the elaborating process of building vocal scores. Therefore, she demonstrated that it is of fundamental importance a musical training in the development of the actor.
