How performance art in 1960s Japan formed a legacy of resistance against institutionalization
In Anarchy of the Body , art historian KuroDalaiJee sheds light on vital pieces of postwar Japanese ...avant-garde history by contextualizing the social, cultural, and political trajectories of artists across Japan in the 1960s. A culmination of years of research, Anarchy of the Body draws on an extensive breadth of source material to reveal how the practice of performance by individual artists and art groups during this period formed a legacy of resistance against institutionalization, both within the art world and more broadly in Japanese society. This book contains 256 high-quality reproductions, including rare performance photographs not readily accessible elsewhere, as well as a comprehensive chronology. KuroDalaiJee was awarded the 2010 Art Encouragement Prize for New Artists (criticism category) by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.

Provo fue un movimiento contracultural que desarrolló su actividad en Ámsterdam entre 1965 y 1967. Sus integrantes mostraron una gran creatividad en sus publicaciones y acciones, generando un ...universo estético propio aparejado a sus ideas políticas contestatarias. En el presente artículo se analizan algunos aspectos ligados a la estética del movimiento, especialmente a través de su imprenta clandestina, el color blanco y la reinvención del happening en un contexto urbano de revuelta.
Given that schools are, potentially, powerful sites for influencing adolescent behaviour, it is important that there is greater understanding of the psychosocial aspects of the school climate that ...can be leveraged for this purpose. The research reported in this article used structural equation modelling (with data from a sample of 6120 students at Australian high schools) to examine the influence of the psychosocial school-level environment on students' self-reported experiences of bully victimisation (i.e. being victims of bullying) and engagement in delinquent behaviours. Further, we examined whether bully victimisation mediated the relationships between school climate variables and delinquent behaviours. School connectedness and rule clarity were negatively associated with both bully victimisation and delinquency (p < 0.05), and teacher support was negatively associated with bully victimisation (p < 0.01), confirming the importance of these aspects of the school-level environment. However, affirming diversity and reporting and seeking help both had positive influences on bully victimisation (p < 0.05), raising concerns about the ways in which these aspects of the school-level environment might have been promoted. Importantly, bully victimisation was found to mediate the influence of five of the six school climate constructs on delinquent behaviours (p < 0.001). This study advance our understanding of how specific aspects of the school climate influence the prevalence of bullying and delinquent behaviour, adding weight to the call for educators to actively monitor and enhance psychosocial aspects of the school climate in order to improve student behavioural outcomes.

This paper reports salient findings of a yearlong study that aimed to understand the impacts of digitized ethnographic collections. We discuss the barriers and challenges to understanding, assessing, ...and communicating the impact of ethnographic digitization projects. We then discuss the implications of our findings for collection practice and development and advocate for cultivating a culture of assessment for digitization projects using the systematized collection of impact stories.

RESUMEN:En el presente estudio exponemos las conclusiones a las que hemos llegado al analizar pormenorizadamente las obras del artista alemán Wolf Vostell –figura clave en la Historia del Arte de la ...segunda mitad del siglo XX- en las que podemos encontrar la presencia canina. De este estudio hemos concluido los distintos significados que este animal desprende en el lenguaje vostelliano, ampliando el horizonte y el conocimiento que sobre el artista se tiene, así como apuntado las distintas utilizaciones que de ellos hace en su obra, tanto reconocible como abstracta, en distintos formatos (happenings, conciertos Fluxus, environments, etc.) Palabras clave: Vostell; iconografía; happening; animales; naturaleza.

This paper explores the preliminary process reading that arises from achievements in the progressive. The meaning of the progressive as a partitive operator poses challenges in the formalization of ...its occurrence with punctual predicates like achievements. I discuss problems with prior proposals (Rothstein 2004, Bohnemeyer 2005), and argue that the preliminary process reading should be accounted for in terms of the meaning of achievements rather than the meaning of the progressive. Based on Bach’s (1981) subdivision of achievements, I propose to analyze culminationachievements as denoting a set of complex events which consist of a preliminary process and its culmination, while analyzing happening-achievements as a set of simple events of culmination. I show how the lexical specifications of the two subtypes of achievements result in the different patterns in the progressive. Furthermore, I argue that culmination-achievements differ from accomplishments in terms of the discourse statuses of the implications which are associated with their two subevents. Building on previous studies on projective contents (e.g. Simons et al. 2011, Tonhauser et al. 2013, 2018), I take a close look at the properties of the process implication triggered by culmination-achievements, and show that it is projective content.

In order to overcome some unsatisfactory trends and limitations of the traditional path integration (PI) method for Poisson white noise, a novel PI method is proposed in this paper, which includes ...two improved schemes. The first one is a new Transition Probability Density Function (TPDF) approximation which considers the randomness of the impulse happening time during each time intervals. The second one is a transformation of Chapman–Kolmogorov (CK) equation by a variable substitution instead of directly using it, whose numerical calculation is based on the back stepping Runge–Kutta scheme and the triangulation-based interpolation. Monte Carlo Simulations (MCS) are utilized to measure the accuracy of the improved algorithm with three illustrative nonlinear systems. The results show that compared with the traditional PI method, the improved PI method can give a more accurate description of the TPDF values, and provide more precise stationary Probability Density Function (PDF) results whenever the mean arrival rate is large or small. The improved algorithm has a wider range of choices in time interval values to maintain the accuracy of stationary PDF results. Besides, it is discovered that cubic interpolation deserves to be applied in the improved PI method more than linear and natural interpolations.

El presente artículo busca interrogar el atender en su doble acepción, en tanto atención perceptiva y en tanto cuidado. Lo que parece interesante del examen del vínculo entre ambos sentidos es que ...pone en juego un sujeto que se comprende en relación estricta con la alteridad cuyo modo de ser está determinado por sus respuestas. En este sentido, el examen progresivo que va de la atención perceptiva a la atención en cuanto cuidado aporta recursos importantes para pensar la dimensión responsiva del sí-mismo al alero de los aportes de la fenomenología contemporánea que va de Ricoeur, pasando por Levinas, Marion, Chrétien, Housset y Romano.
