Arte y política : Las rarezas de la revista Hexágono '71 de Edgardo Antonio Vigo

Este trabajo presenta uno de los modos por los cuales el arte se encuentra con la política a través de la poética del artista plástico Edgardo Antonio Vigo, entre fines de lo '60 y mediados de los '70. Desde la vanguardia estética este artista trabajó con diversos materiales, generando una poética que apuntaba a provocar la participación del público, su asombro o desconcierto, así como formas expresivas que se alejaban de las Bellas Artes y sus cánones. Además, incorporó temas vinculados con la política, especialmente asociados a la radicalización, que tomaban elementos comunes a los discursos y prácticas culturales de la época, sin abandonar su posición vanguardista. El análisis de la revista Hexágono 71, permite pensar lo político del arte en tanto forma de desestructurar los modos de concebir la organización y jerarquías, sujetos y objetos del orden social, como su vinculación con la política, los acontecimientos y disputas del momento, aunque sin responder al modelo del artista comprometido

Lectura, acción y performatividad : El lugar del receptor en la revista Hexágono '71

Hexágono '71 fue una revista que se publicó entre 1971 y 1975, su ideólogo y director fue Edgardo Antonio Vigo (1928-1997). Una de las preguntas que frecuentemente nos realizamos al analizar una revista es ¿a quién está dirigida?, ¿cuál es su lector ideal?, ¿qué tipo de lectura propone? En esta ponencia trabajamos sobre una de las características de la revista Hexágono '71: el particular lugar en que coloca al receptor, implicándolo en un rol activo y decisivo en el contacto con la misma

Specific detection of enterovirus 71 directly from clinical specimens using real-time RT-PCR hybridization probe assay

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is one of the main causative agents of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in young children. Infections caused by EV71 could lead to many complications, ranging from brainstem encephalitis to pulmonary oedema, resulting in high mortality. Thus, rapid detection of the virus is required to enable measures to be implemented in preventing widespread transmission. Based on primers and probes targeting at the VP1 region, a real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) hybridization probe assay was developed for specific detection of EV71 from clinical specimens. Quantitative analysis showed that the assay was able to detect as low as 5 EV71 viral copies and EV71 was detected from 46 of the 55 clinical specimens obtained from pediatric patients suffering from HFMD during the period from 2000 to 2003 in Singapore. This study showed that the single tube real-time RT-PCR assay developed in this study can be applied as a rapid and sensitive method for specific detection of EV71 directly from clinical specimens.

(Table 1) Low molecular weight hydrocarbon concentrations and organic carbon contents at DSDP Hole 71-511

C2-C8 hydrocarbons (36 compounds identified) from 56 shipboard sealed, deep-frozen core samples of DSDP Leg 71, Site 511, Falkland Plateau, South Atlantic, were analyzed by a combined hydrogen stripping-thermovaporization method. Concentrations, which represent hydrocarbons dissolved in the pore water and adsorbed to the mineral surfaces of the sediment, vary from 24 ng/g of dry weight sediment in Lithologic Unit 4 to 17,400 ng/g in Lithologic Unit 6 ("black shale" unit). Likewise, the organic carbon normalized C2-C8 hydrocarbon concentrations range from 104 to 3.5 x 105 ng/g Corg. The latter value is more than one order of magnitude lower than expected for petroleum source beds in the main phase of oil generation. The low maturity at 600 meters depth is further supported by light hydrocarbon concentration ratios. The change of the kerogen type from Lithologic Unit 5 (Type III) to 6 (Type II) is evidenced by changes in the C6 and C7 hydrocarbon composition. Redistribution phenomena are observed close to the Tertiary-Cretaceous unconformity and at the contact between the "black shale" unit and the overlying Cretaceous chalks and claystones. Otherwise, the low molecular weight hydrocarbons in Hole 511 are formed in situ and remain at their place of formation. The core samples turned out to be contaminated by large quantities of acetone, which is routinely used as a solvent during sampling procedures onboard Glomar Challenger.
