Abstract:
National cultural heritage institutions are charged with representative preservation of their countries’ cultural materials and the ways their staff undertake preservation activities impact to whom and how these materials are representative. Music is hailed as an integral part of a nation’s cultural heritage, but while aspects of its preservation are individually understood, their combined treatment in cultural institutions — music curation — and its ability to alter concepts of national identity are not. Consequently, we must ask how does music curation influence notions of national identity?

Abstract:
Machines of Curation is an attempt to confront the ever-growing landscape of technology I observe and live inside of daily. This work is specifically concerned with my interest in how we interact with and alter our surrounding environments through technology. The constant tether we have to our devices is becoming more reminiscent of a parasite and host, rather than of a device and user. It informs how we are to look at things, speak with those we love, pay for things, and receive news; just to name a few. I seek to co-opt these methods to urge the viewer to ask their own questions and make the

Curating practices appear in various fields as a common practice of immaterial labour today. To ‘curate’ is an active verb that suggests ‘doing’ something. Seldom if ever are the implications of curating critically discussed outside the arts, and this provides a reason for this thesis to investigate. What does ‘to curate’ mean, imply or suggest in the urban context? How are urban curatorial practices legitimized and where can they contribute to urban planning?

Social curation is a new trend which has emerged following on the heels of the information glut created by user-generated content revolution. Rather than create new content, social curation allows users to categorise content created by others, and thereby creating and resharing their personal taxonomies of the Web. In this dissertation, we collect a large dataset from Pinterest, arguably the most popular image curation service, and seek to understand the trend on three levels: content, friends and crowds.

Abstract:
À travers l’essai, la poésie, la citation et la traduction, cette recherche déroule un corpus lianescent, aux croisements des études noires, de l’afrofuturisme et de contre-phénoménologies alternatives (et queerféministes en particulier), visant à remettre en question nos différentes manières de « faire image ». Elle concerne en effet le parcours de formes et de protocoles minorisés – aussi bien artistiques que conceptuels –, qui associent pourtant le renouvellement syncrétique des imaginaires et des canons esthétiques à de fortes motivations éthiques, dans la perspective du déploiement de str

Abstract:
Rural place is often overlooked in interaction design research. This thesis is centered around an analog interaction between humans and a 35 ton stone in a danish forest, on the rural island of Bornholm. With a methodological approach influenced by Donna Haraway's essay 'Situated Knowledges' the author approaches her site-specific topic both as a local, a tourist and a researcher. The thesis offers a close study of the interaction with the stone, and explains how this natural occurring interaction, has physically shaped the landscape around it, but also reveals the curation imposed upon rural

Information Filtering and Recommender Systems have been used and has been implemented in various ways from various entities since the dawn of the Internet, and state-of-the-art approaches rely on Machine Learning and Deep Learning in order to create accurate and personalized recommendations for users in a given context. These models require big amounts of data with a variety of features such as time, location and user data in order to find correlations and patterns that other classical models such as matrix factorization and collaborative filtering cannot.

Les astéroïdes primitifs sont des petits corps qui ont relativement peu évolué depuis leur formation. Ils nous renseignent sur la composition chimique du système solaire primitif et son évolution jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Avant les années 2020, les seuls potentiels analogues de ces objets dont nous disposions pour des analyses en laboratoire étaient les chondrites carbonées (CCs). Mais le lien entre les CCs et leurs corps parents astéroïdaux n'est pas encore clair, et la composition primitive des CCs est partiellement altérée par l’interaction avec l’atmosphère terrestre.

Abstract:
An ACRL white paper from 2012 reported that, at that time, only a small number of academic libraries in the United States and Canada offered research data services (RDS), but many were planning to do so within the next two years (Tenopir, Birch, and Allard, 2012). By 2013, 74% of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) survey respondents offered RDS and an additional 23% were planning to do so (Fearon, Gunia, Pralle, Lake, and Sallans, 2013). The academic libraries recognize that the landscape of services changes quickly and that they need to support the changing needs of research and inst

Abstract:
This practice of traditional male circumcision among the Xhosa people in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa is accompanied by a high level of secrecy: details of the practice may not be shared with non-members such as women, uninitiated boys and strangers. To address the issue of injuries and deaths resulting from poorly performed unhygienic circumcision by untrained practitioners, the Department of Public Health in the Eastern Cape passed the Application of Health Standards in Traditional Circumcision Act No 6 of 2001.

Abstract:
Learning object repositories, a form of digital libraries, are robust systems that provide educators new ways to search for educational resources, collaborate with peers, and provide instruction to students in unique and varied ways. This study examines a learning object repository created by a large suburban school district to increase teaching information and encourage collaboration among teachers. Despite investing nearly $2 million to develop the software and seed the repository with materials, data suggest that teacher use falls below set goals. This document explores five years of site t

Abstract:
The Intention to Notice: the collection, the tour and ordinary landscapes is concerned with how ordinary landscapes and places are enabled and conserved through making itineraries that are framed around the ephemera encountered by chance, and the practices that make possible the endurance of these material traces. Through observing and then examining the material and temporal aspects of a variety of sites/places, the museum and the expanded garden are identified as spaces where the expression of contemporary political, ecological and social attitudes to cultural landscapes can be realise

Abstract:
In this thesis, Janis Cook explores ways in which the thoughtful curation of a chamber concert can enhance the reception of the musical repertoire. This avenue of research has evolved from questioning why performances of musical artworks which reflect a significant portion of Australia’s cultural inheritance attract only a niche and arguably diminishing audience. The author establishes points of view which emphasise the deep cultural connections inherent in music, embrace the social aspect of performance, eschew the division of the expressive realm of the arts into discrete categories, and con
