Abstract:
The size of a mobile device is primarily determined by the size of the touchscreen. As such, researchers have found that the way to achieve ultimate mobility is to abandon the screen altogether. These wearable devices are operated using hand gestures, voice commands or a small number of physical buttons. By abandoning the screen these devices also abandon the currently dominant spatial interaction style (such as tapping on buttons), because, seemingly, there is nothing to tap on. Unfortunately this design prevents users from transferring their learned interaction knowledge gained from traditio

Abstract:
This thesis assesses the case for introducing an imaginative counterpart to desire. The first chapter considers what an imaginative counterpart is, and some initial worries related to introducing an imaginative counterpart to desire. The second chapter considers whether our third person mindreading abilities, and a puzzle about what mental states motivate children’s pretend play, give us reason for introducing i - desires. The third chapter considers whether we have to introduce i - desires to make sense of the desires we apparently direct towards fictional characters. I will argue that introd

My work questions the ongoing dialogue between technology and nature. This dialogue is most evident in landscapes and their respective ecosystems, specifically rivers. These bodies of water are a fluid mirror reflecting a wavering view of ourselves, a constructed human presence within the natural environment. This thesis offers a way of understanding these pipelines, dams, canals and attendant infrastructures in a conceptual manner. These encapsulating forms that interrupt, shape and utilise the natural realm are the facades of a hydrological imaginary. ‘A Hydrological Imaginary’ addresses thi

In our first text, Jos Carbone, we look to establish the role of the unconscious.

Abstract:
In this thesis, I investigate the role unobservables play in scientific explanations, the naturalness of explanations, and the fertility (or developmental potential) of theories. Realist accounts (in particular, the causal-mechanistic account) require unobservables to be real for them to fulfil an explanatory function in theories. Antirealist counts do not assign any particular role to unobservables and marginalise the explanatory power of theories, their naturalness, and their developmental potential as merely of pragmatic interest.

Scotland’s economic capacity to prosper independently of Britain has become a key political issue, dominating the independence referendum of 2014 and continuing to influence British politics since.

Thus, it offers a major opportunity to study the broader issue in critical social science of how economies are “imagined”. However, to date most studies of Scotland’s economy comes from the discipline of economics or from the policy profession. This study aims to address this gap. It high

The majority of motifs previously perceived as “Gothic” can thus be seen in a new light, namely, as “Greek”.

Abstract:
Since the pioneering work of Harold Innes and Marshal McLuhan, accounts of social and cultural change that assign a key role to innovations in media have enjoyed considerable currency. These Medium Theories, as Joshua Meyrowitz has usefully dubbed them, are particularly concerned with how the shift from oral to literate to electronic media has successively reconfigured both cultural systems and their everyday deployment. This model of mediation suffers from major weaknesses however. It is media-centric, crudely deterministic, ethnocentric, and takes no account of patterns of social inequality.

Italy as an 'other country' constitutes an important element in the delineation of British Romanticism.

At the same time, bluegrass has a broad and varied global appeal. Abroad, bluegrass is often a part of "Americanism," the negotiation of cultural elements from the United States--and is subject to an array of different cultural politics.
