Abstract:
In investigating the influence of religious thoughts on architecture, much attention has been given to divine world-wide religions by the researchers, while indigenous religions have to a great extent been neglected. Ancient tribes in different parts of the world, have, on the basis of their cosmology, shaped beliefs which reflect on their architecture, especially on their sacred buildings. Regarding the Dogons-a well-known and a dominant tribe in West Africa- their Gods, cosmology and beliefs have led to the formation of settlements comprising houses, temples and other types of buildings in accordance with their religious thoughts while also being in harmony with nature. Up on the expansion of Islam throughout Africa, especially West Africa, vernacular mosques are shaped gradually beside shrines making a typology of Islamic architecture which has traces of both Dogon and Islamic architecture within it; While the influence of natural materials and indigenous building techniques should not be neglected. Taking a descriptive-deductive analysis approach, this paper will search for the architectural creolization process and will eventually conclude that West African vernacular mosques inherit their formal and spatial features mostly from Dogon house and pioneer mosques in Medina and their physical features, elements and exterior decorations from Dogon temples.

Abstract:
The article examines the phenomenon of the penetration of elements of pre-Islamic decor into the architecture of mosques in the Dogon Country (Mali). In the case of Dogon architecture, one can observe a very peculiar version of the interaction of traditional culture with Islam. In itself, the use of forms and types of architectural structures traditional for the given territory is well known - it is enough to recall the Ottoman mosques. With the Dogon, the situation is different: the architecture of mosques reproduces not just the decor of a building directly related to traditional religion, but precisely those details of it that are associated with the worship of "idols", or fetishes. Similar incidents were recorded in other areas of Dogon modern traditional culture. A typical example is the prophet Amabir (Amabirɛ, “Creation of the Lord”, abbreviated as Abirɛ) Goro (Goro), who owns the prophecy that some day or other the Dogon will return to the Mande Country. The Dogon consider Amabire, and not Muhammad, the "last prophet" and connect the legend about him with the history of Islam in Mali. These cases indicate the penetration of pagan elements into Muslim architecture, as well as the penetration of Islam into pagan folklore and a clear desire to link them with each other. So this is evidence of the synthesis of Islam and traditional culture: pagan elements of Dogon heritage are no longer recognized as such, and Islamic elements are not identified by the Dogon only with religion.

Abstract:
To the field of professional architecture in Europe in the aftermath of World War II, the deserts of Western Africa were a margin that was viewed as an exterior to the modern metropolis and as a realm of escapism. However, to the ethnographic practices that had developed since the late 1800s, the notion of a desert hinterland supposed a primordial land, reflected in forms of habitation. For architects Herman Haan (1914–96) and Aldo van Eyck (1918–99), the desert was a tense geography that moved between being outside and at home. Revisiting the diaries from Haan and van Eyck’s journeys and their mediation of ethnographic methodologies alongside their engagement with modernist design, this article proposes that Haan’s impressions connect two seemingly opposite contexts: the Dogon lands on the Niger River, and Rotterdam. I argue that, in the architectural and ethnographic amateurism of Haan, the modernist metropolis and its exteriors were not delimited, distinct realms, but were rather engaged in a fluctuating relationship reflective of the contemporary fascination with post-Eurocentric landscapes in the discipline of architecture. I assert that this process of immersion was in fact a process of internalization of spatial experience.

Abstract:
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a process for managing construction project information in such a way as to provide a basis for enhanced decision-making and for collaboration in a construction supply chain. One impediment to the uptake of BIM is the limited interoperability of different BIM systems. To overcome this problem, a set of Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) has been proposed as a standard for the construction industry. Building on IFC, the ifcOWL ontology was developed in order to facilitate representation of building data in a consistent fashion across the Web by using the Web Ontology Language (OWL). This study presents a critical analysis of the ifcOWL ontology and of the associated interoperability issues. It shows how these issues can be resolved by using Basic Formal Ontology (ISO/IEC 21838-2) as top-level architecture. A set of competency questions is used as the basis for comparison of the original ifcOWL with the enhanced ontology, and the latter is used to align with a second ontology – the ontology for building intelligent environments (DOGONT) – in order to demonstrate the added value derived from BFO by showing how querying the enhanced ifcOWL yields useful additional information.

Abstract:
Desde finales del siglo XIX algunos pintores, como el francés Paul Gauguin o el alemán Max Pechstein, habían sentido la necesidad de trasladarse físicamente a los lugares en que vivían pueblos primitivos, atraídos por la fuerza de su arte. No contentos con observar las producciones de estas culturas llamadas “primitivas” en los museos etnográficos, muchos artistas de las vanguardias europeas del siglo XX se lanzaron a un conocimiento directo de estas, emprendiendo largos viajes para compartir incluso su modo de vida. El primitivismo fue un ingrediente esencial en la formación de nuevo arte de vanguardia y en su defensa se pronunció de una manera inequívoca una figura tan relevante en la historiografía del arte como Wilhelm Worringer en 1911. En los años cuarenta, el escultor Jorge Oteiza viajó a los Andes colombianos en busca de una estatuaria original, el antropólogo Claude Lévi-Strauss publicó sus obras más importantes sobre las estructuras sociales de las culturas primitivas en los años sesenta y por esos mismos años el arquitecto Aldo van Eyck viajó y posteriormente escribió sobre el pueblo dogón. Todos estos autores se refieren a los mitos desarrollados en estas culturas, que se relacionan directamente con la tierra y con un eventual abatimiento del cielo sobre la tierra. Este escrito trata algunos de los modos en que se concreta esta relación entre lo que flota allá arriba y lo que sucede sobre la superficie del terreno, una relación de enorme importancia para la arquitectura y el arte de nuestro tiempo.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Proper modulation of promoter chromatin architecture is crucial for gene regulation in order to precisely and efficiently orchestrate various cellular activities. Previous studies have identified the stimulatory effect of the histone-modifying complex NuA4 on the incorporation of the histone variant H2A.Z (Htz1) at the PHO5 promoter (A. Auger, L. Galarneau, M. Altaf, A. Nourani, Y. Doyon, R. T. Utley, D. Cronier, S. Allard, and J. Côté, Mol Cell Biol 28:2257–2270, 2008, http://dx.doi.org/10.1128/MCB.01755-07 ). In vitro studies with a reconstituted system also indicated an intriguing cross talk between NuA4 and the H2A.Z-loading complex, SWR-C (M. Altaf, A. Auger, J. Monnet-Saksouk, J. Brodeur, S. Piquet, M. Cramet, N. Bouchard, N. Lacoste, R. T. Utley, L. Gaudreau, J. Côté, J Biol Chem 285:15966–15977, 2010, http://dx.doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M110.117069 ). In this work, we investigated the role of the NuA4 scaffold subunit Eaf1 in global gene expression and genome-wide incorporation of Htz1. We found that loss of Eaf1 affects Htz1 levels mostly at the promoters that are normally highly enriched in the histone variant. Analysis of eaf1 mutant cells by expression array unveiled a relationship between NuA4 and the gene network implicated in the purine biosynthesis pathway, as EAF1 deletion cripples induction of several ADE genes. NuA4 directly interacts with Bas1 activation domain, a key transcription factor of adenine genes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments demonstrate that nucleosomes on the inactive ADE17 promoter are acetylated already by NuA4 and enriched in Htz1. Upon derepression, these poised nucleosomes respond rapidly to activate ADE gene expression in a mechanism likely reminiscent of the PHO5 promoter, leading to nucleosome disassembly. These detailed molecular events depict a specific case of cross talk between NuA4-dependent acetylation and incorporation of histone variant Htz1, presetting the chromatin structure over ADE promoters for subsequent chromatin remodeling and activated transcription.

Abstract:
Abstract Tissue homeostasis depends on responses to environmental insults to restore cellular phenotype, microenvironment composition, and tissue architecture. Inflammation is essential to the disruption of homeostasis, and, in the pancreas, can destabilize the identity of terminally differentiated acinar cells. Herein we employ lineage-traced mouse models to delineate the chromatin dynamics that accompany the cycle of metaplasia and regeneration following pancreatitis, and unveil the presence of an epigenetic memory of inflammation in the pancreatic acinar cell compartment. We observe that despite histologic resolution of pancreatitis, acinar cells fail to return to their molecular baseline after several months, representing an incomplete cell fate decision. In vivo, this epigenetic memory controls lineage plasticity, with diminished metaplasia in response to a second inflammatory insult but increased tumorigenesis with an oncogenic Kras mutation. We demonstrate that both persistent chromatin and transcriptional changes constituting memory are recalled with oncogenic stress. Together, our findings define a capacity for an environmental insult to control future cell-fate decisions in a context-dependent manner. The ability of epigenetic memory to potentiate tumor initiation both broadens the relationship between inflammation and cancer and raises the possibility that inducing epigenetic ‘amnesia’ of an inflammatory insult could be leveraged as a novel cancer prevention strategy.

Abstract:
Le plateau de Bandiagara et les monts du Gourma ont été utilisés comme bastions-refuges par les populations dogon et sonrai qui fuyaient l'insécurité des plaines. Ces villages qui utilisent parfois des sites fortifiés sont remarquables par leurs habitats troglodytes. L'habitat est l'expression spatiale d'une structure sociale dont l'élément de base est le segment de lignage. La vie sociale s'insère dans un système symbolique complexe l'espace vécu s'organise selon une opposition village-brousse. L'avancement en âge se traduit spatialement par un déplacement de chaque individu vers le centre du village où la place est le lieu d'expression de la puissance du patriarcat
The Bandiagara plateau and Gourma mounts were used as a refuge by dogon and sonrai populations fleeing plains insecurity. The villages are sometimes fortified and noteworthy for their troglodytic dwellings the habitation is the spatial expression of the social structure whose foundation is the minimal lineage. The social life is encapsulated in a complex symbolic system. A village bush dichotomy is the base of space conceptualization. Progression through life is associated with residence moves toward the village center where the village square express the power of gerontocracy
