Putra, Ricky Widyananda. "Manga matrix's approach to creating Indonesian ghost game visual characters on Dreadeye VR." International Journal of Visual and Performing Arts 4, no. 1 (June 1, 2022): 39–46. http://dx.doi.org/10.31763/viperarts.v4i1.655.

Abstract:
Visual imagery is the most important part of game design. Game designers should pay particular attention so that the visual character of the game can be effectively realized and able to convey the depth of its visual meanings. Taking use of the widespread fear of the Indonesian Ghost's appearance, the game is able to present challenges to its players. This study aims to develop the creation of character designs, especially by elevating visual images of Indonesian ghosts into visual characters' in-game media. The method for designing Indonesian ghost characters is to dismantle the visual image of Indonesian ghost characters in the Dreadeye VR game. The strategy is to consider the following three components: (1) the matrix of shapes, (2) the costume matrix, and (3) the matrix of traits. All three were analyzed with the approach of manga matrix theory. This research has led to the emergence of relatively distinct ghost figures that are frequently feared by Indonesians, such as pocong, kuntilanak, and tuyul. By examining the matrices of the shape, costume, and nature of each character of the three Indonesian ghosts, it is possible to conclude that to create visual characters of Indonesian ghosts, game designers must identify these three components, while the contribution of this research is to provide a visual image analysis model including shape imagery, costume imagery, and traits imagery of Indonesian ghosts used in the Dreadeye VR Game in Indonesia.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay takes the example of a poem composed by a ghost in the Tang dynasty—one of many preserved in literary anthologies and treated as actually having been authored by the dead—as an entry point to ask broader questions of ghostly haunting and poetic presence. What the essay demonstrates is how both the ghost and the poem are informed by logics of analog mediation (rather than representation): how the ghost finds purchase in the world only through bodily possession, spatial haunting, material displacement, and psychic transference and how the poem effects the transmission of mind through the channels of linguistic form, meter, and rhyme. Neither the ghost nor the poem exists except in or as its mediations, yet through these mediations, both the ghost and the poem become present and are communicated into the world. While contemporary media theory has identified the intertwined discourses of technology and spiritualism, the focus has almost solely been on the nineteenth century and later, on the age of electric and electronic telecommunications. The medieval ghost poem, as an exemplary case, complicates this account, showing how poetry has long served as a necrotechnology that mediates the dead and returns ghosts to presence.

Abstract:
As a thanatologist who specializes in mortuary beliefs and rites in Ghana, I frequently come across information on Akan cultural beliefs about ghosts, as well as individual or personal stories of ghost encounters. Yet, there has been virtually no academic inquiry into the topic. Between January and February 2015, I listened to four consecutive weekly radio programs focusing primarily on ghosts on a commercial radio station in Ghana. The programs were broadcast in Twi, the Akan lingua franca, which the author is fluent in. Following extensive discussions about Akan cultural beliefs regarding ghosts and other superhuman entities by the host and co-hosts of the program, listeners were invited to share their personal stories about ghost sightings and other encounters with ghosts. The current article presents a narrative of the discussion that occurred on the four featured programs. The data show that Akans of Ghana maintain a strong cultural belief in ghosts. Several listeners shared with the host and listeners their personal encounters with ghosts and ghost activities.

Abstract:
AbstractSuppose that G is a finite group and k is a field of characteristic p > 0. A ghost map is a map in the stable category of finitely generated kG-modules which induces the zero map in Tate cohomology in all degrees. In an earlier paper we showed that the thick subcategory generated by the trivial module has no nonzero ghost maps if and only if the Sylow p-subgroup of G is cyclic of order 2 or 3. In this paper we introduce and study variations of ghost maps. In particular, we consider the behavior of ghost maps under restriction and induction functors. We find all groups satisfying a strong form of Freyd’s generating hypothesis and show that ghosts can be detected on a finite range of degrees of Tate cohomology. We also consider maps that mimic ghosts in high degrees.

Full text
Abstract:
The effect of incubation with insulin on insulin-receptor internalization by erythrocyte ghosts was investigated. The number of surface insulin receptors decreased by 30-40% after incubation of ghosts with insulin. Total insulin-receptor binding to solubilized ghosts was the same in insulin-incubated and control ghosts, whereas insulin binding to an internal vesicular fraction was substantially increased in insulin-incubated ghosts. Our findings suggest that erythrocyte-ghost insulin receptors are internalized to a vesicular compartment in response to incubation with insulin.

Wuthering heights is haunted, of course. But not only by the ghost of Catherine, who harries Heathcliff and terrifies Lockwood. Not only by the shades of Heathcliff and Catherine (or Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon) who set off toward Penistone Crag. The ghosts in Wuthering Heights are not Gothic ghosts nor the ghosts from Victorian magazine ghost stories. They represent a different kind of haunting altogether — the haunting of the Victorian middle classes by fear of the people they designated as “the folk.”

Previous studies show that Thai people’s ways of life and traditions from birth to death are related to ghosts. Most of the studies deal with the role of ghosts in Thai society but there has been no study on ghost terms in Thai, which would reflect the ghost system in Thai thoughts. Thus, this study aims to analyze the system and categorization of terms for ghosts and spirits in Thai. Folk taxonomy, which is a method in the ethnosemantic approach, has been adopted for the analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
In the VR optical system, the pancake optics faces the problem of ghost, which is more serious than the conventional aspherical/Fresnel optics. The causes of pancake ghosts are different, thus the performance of pancake ghosts in the image is also different. Some of them can be clearly imaged, but some exist in the form of light spots. The presence of these ghosts seriously affects the image contrast. In this paper, ghost measurement and simulation methods are proposed, which obtains the Virtual image distance, position and brightness of the ghost image, and the cause of the ghost image is obtained by combining the simulation and measurement. Finally, ghost intensity was reduced from 4.68% to 2.39% using the ghost image mitigation methods. A pancake optical system was optimized and prototype was demonstrated, with a field of view of 108°, an exit pupil diameter of 10mm, and a ghost image intensity of less than 2.39%.

Abstract:
AbstractWhile cross-disciplinary analysis of ghosts and haunting has burgeoned in recent decades, much of this scholarship presumes the figure of the ghost as a less than literal apparition. We propose that writers such as Jacques Derrida and Avery Gordon, who make use of the ghostly as a trope, are in fact describing a phenomenon we term secondary haunting, distinct from accounts of unquiet spirits who address the living directly with specific demands for redress: a visceral and often frightening experience we term primary haunting. Drawing on a contemporary account of the ghosts of a massacre in a Vietnamese village, we explore the complex interaction of primary and secondary haunting, the different kinds of memory work they engage in and the different moral communities they mobilize.

La photographie argentique est receleuse de traces et de mémoire. C’est dans cette optique que j’ai travaillé avec des clichés de mon passé et que j’ai choisi de les altérer afin de les décharger de leur cette charge affective et de cette notion de passé qui leur étaient reliées. Comme dans un rite funéraire, je crée des masques mortuaires pour chacune des mes photographies en utilisant tulle et broderie, pour ensuite insérer le masque selon différents moyens : par empreinte superposée à la photo et par ajout concret sur une forme découpée. Le masque apparaît alors sur l’image. Il se confond dans les traits et les détails de cette dernière et y fait apparaître un fantôme ; forme fantasmagorique qui fait état de survivance, entre le passé et le présent. La nature intrinsèque du cliché est changée, elle n’est plus trace d’un passé et le cliché passe d’image à œuvre.

Abstract:
Syftet och frågeställningarna med uppsatsen är att fastsälla vilka de betydelsebärande skillnaderna är i filmerna 13 Ghosts (1960) och Thir13en Ghosts (2001) gällande hur kvinnor framställs i aspekterna våld, scener med övernaturligt innehåll samt sexualitet. Syftet är även att ta reda på hur övernaturlighet och våldsscener skiljer sig från varandra mellan filmerna utan att väga in ett genusperspektiv, samt vad det finns för stora skillnader i hur kvinnor framställs i förhållande till männen med betoning på remaken.Teorier hämtas från Karen Boyle och Göran Bolins teorier om våld i film och feministisk filmteoretisk forskning med namn som Marianne Kleberg, Elisabeth Cowie, Laura Mulvey och Shohini Chaudhuri, där sexualitet och objektifiering av kvinnokroppen står i centrum. Vidare behandlas teorier av Emely D. Edwards, Carrol F. Fry, Marina Warner samt Tom Ruffles angående populärkultur och andlighet.Metoden som används i denna studie är en semiotisk analys, där Roland Barthes beteckningar denotation, konnotation och myt agerat grundpelare.Resultat påvisar att filmerna skiljer sig till stor del inom alla aspekter och att kvinnor i remaken oftare är mer stereotypa i sina framställningar. Analysen visar att kvinnors roll i scener med våld tenderar att sexualiseras, ofta har de inte samma mål med sina ockulta praktiker som männen samt att det har skett en stor ökning i nyinspelningen vad gäller objektifiering och sexuella anspelningar på kvinnokroppen. Det har även skett en stor ökning av scener med våldsinnehåll och det är dessutom ett brutalare sådant, samt att det övernaturliga ges betydligt mycket mer utrymme i remaken.Det kan i slutsatsen konstateras att filmer idag innehåller mer av allt inom de aspekter som jag hade för avsikt att undersöka i den här studien, och att detta i sin tur kan relateras till en något mer avtrubbad publik idag som möjligtvis kräver att filmer ska vara mer övertydliga i sin framtoning.

Abstract:
Basin Ghosts is a collection of original poems by Jesse Graves, author of Tennessee Landscape with Blighted Pine. Many poems in Basin Ghosts address places and themes that resonated in Graves's first collection, which won the Weatherford Award, the Thomas and Lillie D. Chaffin Award, and the Appalachian Writers' Association Book of the Year Award in Poetry. The poems in Basin Ghosts examine life in the rural South, changes that have occurred over generations in communities there, and the ways in which the past lives on through memory and attachment to the land.

Laycock, Rona. "Mindful of ghosts." Thesis, Swansea University, 2010. https://cronfa.swan.ac.uk/Record/cronfa42724.

Full text
Abstract:
This poetry collection explores the concept of memory as a function of identity and is based on the ten years or so that I spent living and working in Islamic countries during the 1970s and 1980s. It is an attempt to create a record of a life lived in unfamiliar territories where cultural and social norms are very different from those with which I was brought up. The collection comprises four sections, each having a distinct character, attributable in part to the use of poetic forms chosen to complement specific periods and places. I experimented with haibun, haiku and prose poetry as well as free verse to achieve the desired effect. Themes of memory, place, people and social comment are woven throughout this collection to create a sense of unity within the whole. The accompanying critical essay, 'Writing Mindful of Ghosts', considers the processes involved in such a venture and refers to some of the poets whose work interests and inspires me, as well as offering information on the places and times that informed the poems.

Abstract:
Ghosts and Lovers is a collection of short stories told from the points-of-view of four related characters. Travis is a bisexual restaurant owner who fears commitment and longs for the idealistic version of love that he remembers from his past. Ezra, his boyfriend, is an artist struggling to accept the inherent imperfections of life. Travis's ex-girlfriend, Beth, attempts to come to terms with the life that she has chosen for herself. Her husband, Richard, deals with feelings of helplessness as he watches the events of his life unfold before him. By depicting the events of the story from multiple perspectives, the collection attempts to create a more objective view of reality than is ordinarily possible in fiction. An introductory preface examines the role of unreliable narrators and how reality is presented in fiction.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper explores how the film Rouge (1987) adapts and transforms traditional ghost narratives and how the cinematic anxiety of time is associated with the countdown temporality of Hong Kong in the 1980s. I argue that Rouge transforms two narrative structures of traditional Chinese literature — Caizi-jiaren (scholar-beauty) and the “historical ghost tale” — to foreground the particular temporality of Hong Kong. Firstly, the returning of the female ghost and her failure in pursuit of love intensifies the conflict between the modern linear time and the cosmological ghostly time and poignantly manifests the impossibility of a fifty-year unchanged commitment. Secondly, unlike traditional “historical ghost tales” in which ghosts were called back by traumas of the collapse of old dynasties, the revenant of the heroin in this film returns to the living world for the prearranged trauma of the future, due to the particular temporality of countdown Hong Kong has confronted since 1982. The countdown forced Hong Kong to enter a circular time and to experience the prearranged calamity in the future. Thus, I contend that this film rehearses a demise of Hong Kong, which exacerbates, rather than alleviates, the anxiety and pain associated with the traumatic experience.

Abstract:
The following collection of Victorian Ghost Stories was collated and annotated by scholars at York University enrolled in the fourth-year Victorian Ghosts course offered through the department of English during Fall 2020. Starting with Elizabeth Gaskell’s “The Old Nurse’s Story” (1852)—a staple of many Victorian Ghost Story Anthologies—and ending with Ambrose Bierce’s “The Moonlit Road” (1907), this collection includes twenty-one ghost stories spanning six decades. As our classes were moved online for the 2020-21 academic year, this Scalar project functioned as a collaborative space with each student responsible for one ghost story (writing a short introduction and creating explanatory notes) and then finding links between those texts (and texts outside the course) to create a critical apparatus that helps guide readers through the anthology. This is the first edition and attempt at creating a project of this kind for this course and I hope it offers a foundation for future projects for EN 4573 (Victorian Ghosts) at York University. I cannot praise the students enough for their effort and enthusiasm during our time together when faced with learning a new software and completing unfamiliar assignments—not to mention, doing this all while navigating a (new to many of them) completely remote learning environment.
