We report on a plasma-based method to fabricate chemical and physical patterns on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces. A copper TEM grid was placed on cured, planar (2D) and periodic (3D) PDMS ...surfaces, and the samples exposed to a low-pressure “air” plasma. The pattern of the grid was precisely replicated, forming hydrophilic channels only where the grid wires contacted the PDMS surface. Exposed regions of the surface between the mesh wires were not chemically modified and retained their hydrophobic character. This plasma-based procedure provides a simple, fast, and inexpensive method for creating patterned chemical functionalities on 2D and 3D PDMS surfaces for directed assembly and for the development of micro-scale sensors and bio-chip devices.
In its conventional meaning, masquerade refers to a festive gathering of people wearing masks and elegant costumes. But traditional forms of masquerade have evolved over the past century to include ...the representation of alternate identities in the media and venues of popular culture, including television, film, the internet, theater, museums, sports arenas, popular magazines and a range of community celebrations, reenactments and conventions. This collection of fresh essays examines the art and function of masquerade from a broad range of perspectives. From African slave masquerade in New World iconography, to the familiar Guy Fawkes masks of the Occupy Wall Street movement, to the branded identities created by celebrities like Madonna, Beyonc and Lady Gaga, the essays show how masquerade permeates modern life.
In this article, I discuss Halide Edib's play Masks or Souls (MOS) as anti-war literature composed by a Turkish female intellectual and activist who lived between the two World Wars. The article ...provides a more complete portrayal of Edib, who has often been reduced to a nationalist novelist. I contextualize the play and present evidence from MOS that Edib became a pacifist on the eve of the Second World War. Another war Edib fought was against some of the ideas within the military and intellectual circles of Turkey led by Mustafa Kemal. Through the comments of several characters in the play, Edib criticizes the reforms and westernization processes that took place immediately after the declaration of the Turkish Republic in 1923. It was plausible for Edib to be a nationalist and pacifist simultaneously as in the case of Gandhi, with whom Edib met during her stay in India in 1935. I argue that MOS remains a contemporary text that deserves closer attention especially due to its questioning of Europeanness, racism and modernization of non-Western cultures so the disappearance of the play is a curious phenomenon. What Edib meant by "keeping the soul" of people in order to have a peaceful world is also significant. I counter the neglect this play has suffered from by calling into question some of the nation- and region-based hierarchies prevalent in literary studies. (Author abstract)
