Abstract:

Bodies - be they fleshy or other - are simultaneously made by, made of, moved by, and the makers and movers of other bodies. Driven by the questions how do bodies emerge? what makes bodies move? and what can bodies do? bodies are placed at the very centre of this book in order to explain and show, not only how such bodily making and re-making - (re)making - and movement is done, but also why awareness and understanding of the processes and practices involved in the continual and ongoing (re)making and moving of bodies - of three particular kinds in particular (bodies of power/knowledge, humani

Abstract:

A medical evaluation of physical impairment imposes the additional burden of “labeling” the patient with the condition. The binary nature of the normal versus abnormal label emphasizes difference and can lead to trauma. Understanding differences, however, can lead to the generation of new forms and thus, more sensitive differentiation and representation. Tension is created by exploring different bodily forms—a dialectic between form and essence. I am designing a space that visualizes and illuminates difference as a source of trauma and amplifying the tension by comparing figures that represent

Abstract:

<p> This dissertation addresses the concept of the <i> experimental</i> in contemporary dance and performance.

I have written about artists whose embodied work has been described as experimental, whose innovations and explorations have produced paradigmatic shifts in dance practice a

Abstract:

This thesis supplements existing literature by examining the relationship between institutional regulations and gendered assumptions about bodies. This thesis draws from feminist social constructionist perspectives and gendered organizational theories to explore the role of gendered body assumptions in the organizational framework of a hypermasculine political institution. Using the U.S. military as an illustrative example, this thesis studies military policies and rationales historically, focusing on the post-Vietnam accelerated inclusion of women, the increasing use of combat as a divisive c

A survey of clinical samples revealed that LBs are a universal feature of tubercle bacilli in sputum.

The formation of LBs in NO exposed M. tuberculosis was shown to correlate with the level of antibiotic tolerance displayed by the population. Antibiotic tolerance was thought to be a result of transitory growth arrest; however attempts to assess the growth status of LB positive M. tuberculosis cells were unsuccessful. The morphology of LB

Garments are everywhere in today’s society and often presented on the body, although the absence of the body in design can have an integral impact on how they are perceived by an audience. An experimental material coating, aided garments to become sculptural by portraying the essence of the body. This essay argues that garments are challenged through their perception and purpose by the absence of the body, allowing the sculptures to develop a language in their own right. Through means of forming methods, absence of the body and materiality, garments are able to evolve to communicate an idea ch

And in order to live this life, one must, then, develop a virtuous character, i.e., be a virtuous person, who desires the good.

Abstract:

If C is a convex body in R^n and X is a k-dimensional linear subspace of R^n, we denote by S(C,X) the shadow boundary of C over X which is deﬁned as the collection of all points which belong to C and to one of its tangent (n-k)-ﬂats orthogonal to X. For almost all directions in R^3, the shadow boundary is a curve encompassing the body C. It has been established long ago by G. Ewald, D.G. Larman and C.A. Rogers [11] that, for every given C, S(C,X) is almost always a topological (k-1)-sphere. As a follow on from this result, in 1974 Peter McMullen asked whether most of these shadow boundaries wo
