The artistic production entitled The Art of Burle Marx was led by Bryn Walters and his choreographic team. This artistic project was conceived to be staged in the closing ceremony of the 2016 Olympic ...Games in Rio de Janeiro (Brasil). This mass choreography makes extensive use of video mapping to enhance the choreographic sequences, as is to be found throughout both the opening and closing Ceremonies. Bryn Walters created this artistic work by reinterpreting, with 480 performers and the use of video projections, the main geometric shapes for which the Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx is so well known. Through a careful analysis of the official video, using the Elan software, together with the consultation of ceremony programmes and interviews with the choreographers, the main moments of this mass choreography will be researched and highlighted, with the aim of tracing the recognizable characteristics of Burle Marx’s work. It is possible to conclude that the choreographer Bryn Walter has achieved a successful reconstruction and dissemination of the work of the architect Burle Marx, thanks to a complex collaboration between different professionals, which enhanced the relationship between the performers and the video projections.
Charged with restoring harmony and relieving pain, the Malay shaman places his patients in trance and encourages them to express their talents, drives, personality traits—the "Inner Winds" of Malay ...medical lore—in a kind of performance. These healing ceremonies, formerly viewed by Western anthropologists as exotic curiosities, actually reveal complex multicultural origins and a unique indigenous medical tradition whose psychological content is remarkably relevant to contemporary Western concerns.
Accepted as apprentice to a Malay shaman, Carol Laderman learned and recorded every aspect of the healing seance and found it comparable in many ways to the traditional dramas of Southeast Asia and of other cultures such as ancient Greece, Japan, and India. The Malay seance is a total performance, complete with audience, stage, props, plot, music, and dance. The players include the patient along with the shaman and his troupe. At the center of the drama are pivotal relationships—among people, between humans and spirits, and within the self. The best of the Malay shamans are superb poets, dramatists, and performers as well as effective healers of body and soul.

Letters and diplomatic reports have always been at the heart of diplomacy. However, in terms of travel literature, ministerial papers are not necessarily related to the genre. Diplomats normally made ...themselves the focus of attention in their reports, describing their interactions at court and rarely providing detailed narratives on the cities and palaces that they visited. In official correspondence, they might not comment at length on architecture and the manners of the people whose country they were visiting but in letters to friends and family they may reveal more. English diplomats could remark on festivities, construction and other visiting embassies. This paper traces the presence of Versailles, its court and visitors within the correspondence of ministers representing the kings of England, afterwards Great Britain. It aims to account for and describe the presence of the palace within diplomatic correspondence and hopes to trace both similarities and differences in ministerial perspectives.

Academic scholarship analyses how citizenship law reforms such as longer residency requirements and tougher language tests reinforce culturally exclusionary national narratives. Citizenship ...ceremonies however, have largely escaped scholarly attention. Drawing on Australia as a case study, this article addresses that gap. After examining how Australian citizenship is performed at ceremonies, this article argues that although the government states that citizenship ceremonies should welcome new citizens, deep suspicions about the cultural diversity of migrants are also conveyed. This paper contributes to an understanding of how citizenship ceremonies reinforce culturally exclusionary national narratives, even where the legal criteria for acquiring citizenship status is non-discriminatory. This paper also illustrates how citizenship ceremonies are important sites for the construction and communication of legal identities.
