Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to present ephemeral printed texts as an object of a linguistic description as well as to submit the model of analysis in practice. Texts called as ephemera are usually an object of a non-linguistically targeted interdisciplinary approach, although ephemera, regardless of type and style, can be subject to the scheme of a linguistic analysis. The submitted Linguera model (lingua et ephemera) enables meticulous analysis of an ephemeral text followed by its detailed and accurate analysis. The model focuses on such aspects as the role of context, evaluative language, contents and form of ephemera, as well as analytical map designing. The proposal of analysis is presented on the material of the ephemera collection from the Free City of Danzig (1920 – 1939).

Abstract:
Looking after ephemera collections can seem quite daunting; their contents come in all shapes and sizes and they are designed to be ‘here today, gone tomorrow’. The definition of ephemera in the Oxford pocket dictionary is ‘things of only short-lived use’, which is disheartening when we are trying to preserve these fascinating items for posterity. However, there is a lot of information available about preservation and much of this is applicable to ephemera collections.

Abstract:
In “A Friendly Gathering: The Social Politics of Presentation Books and their Extra-Illustration in Horace Walpole’s Circle,” Lucy Peltz plays with the technical and metaphorical senses of “gathering” to reflect on the materiality and sociability of altered books in the Strawberry Hill set. The practice of extra-illustration consisted in unbinding the book, cutting loose the gatherings of leaves that make up its quires, in order to interleave them with additional pages, or to inlay each page into windows cut through larger sized paper. The process is captured in Walpole’s correspondence: “Mr Bull is honouring me, at least my Anecdotes of Painting, exceedingly. He has let every page into a pompous sheet, and is adding every print of portrait, building, etc., that I mention and that he can get, and specimens of all our engravers. It will make eight magnificent folios, and be a most valuable body of our arts.” Specimens collected and collated with the text anchor, document, and illustrate the words on the page. As a result, an identical multiple in a print run was turned into a unique object. Through the art of extraillustration, the extra-illustrator Richard Bull “erected for himself a monument of taste.” In its monumentalizing aims and dimensions, extra-illustration could be considered an antidote against ephemera, yet transience is inherent in its attempt to document the text with reproductions that might be dispersed. The concept runs the gamut, from Walpole’s paratexts—his title Fugitive Pieces in Verse and Prose (1758), which he presents as “trifles” and “idlenesses”—to his supposedly “diminutive” house, which he called “a paper Fabric and an assemblage of curious Trifles, made by an insignificant Man.” In this essay, I will read the practice of extra-illustration against the grain to recuperate the ephemeral side of “the pompous sheet,” the composite object unbound from its gatherings, and alternative forms of the page as a detached piece, a scrap, a caption appended to objects in the house. I will focus my discussion on two complementary book collections produced by Richard Bull: his extra-illustrated copy of Walpole’s Description of Strawberry Hill, now at the Lewis Walpole Library, and his curious compilation of occasional publications bound with the title-page A Collection of the Loose Pieces printed at Strawberry-Hill, and the alternative title Detached Pieces Printed at Strawberry Hill, now at the Huntington Library.

Labels, packaging, bills, colour prints, blotters, fans, trade cards, publicity leaflets, social stationery, pious images, good-points cards, wrapping paper, golden crowns from Galettes des Rois . . . Far from being complete, this list gives just a glimpse of the iconographic collections of the Bibliothèque Forney. Alongside the prestigious collections that have always been part of the history of the institution (posters, wallpaper, printed fabrics, ancient books), the Library has in fact long been developing a collection of ephemera. These can be counted in hundreds of thousands of items, but it is difficult to be more precise; the ephemera collections grow daily, often as a result of small donations, and remarkable acquisitions enrich the collections.

Abstract:
AbstractFang Yongbin’s (1542–1608) cache of paper-based ephemera—733 notes, invoices, and 190 name cards—now held in the Harvard-Yenching library, discloses the multidimensional expertise of the stationery dealer in late Ming China. This article explores how businessmen from Huizhou prefecture turned to the trade in writing materials to improvise with new forms of cultural entrepreneurship in the late sixteenth century. Introducing the diverse contents of the cache, I demonstrate how Fang’s involvement in the sale of desktop tools drew from, and creatively combined literary endeavors, shop-keeping, and artisanal labor. Unsettling discrete conceptions of “scholar,” “merchant,” and “craftsman,” Fang’s career reveals how stationery dealers vied to usurp custodianship over the material culture of calligraphy. The Harvard-Yenching cache registers the increasingly powerful influence exerted over the business of culture by those skilled in the making and marketing of writing materials: largely forgotten salesmen whose services made the art of writing possible in the first place.

Abstract:
Purpose When advertising historians began searching for substantial collections and archives of historical advertisements and marketing ephemera in the 1970s, some reported such holdings were rare. This paper aims to report the findings of the first systematic attempt to assess the scope and research value of the world’s archives and collections devoted to advertising and marketing ephemera. Design/methodology/approach Searches conducted online of the holdings of museums, libraries and the internet led to the identification and description of 179 archives and collections of historical significance for historians of marketing and advertising, as well as researchers interested in many other topics and disciplines. Findings The lists of archives and collections resulting from the research reported in this article represent the most complete collection of such sources available. Identified are the world’s oldest and largest collections of advertising and ephemera. Also identified are quite extraordinary collections of historically unique records and artifacts. Research limitations/implications The online searches continued until a point of redundancy was reached and no new archives or collections meeting the search criteria emerged. There remains the likelihood, however, that other archives and collections exist, especially in non-Western countries. Originality/value The findings make valuable contributions to the work of historians and other scholars by encouraging more global and cross-cultural research and historical analyses of trends and themes in professional practices in marketing and advertising and their consequences over a longer period than previously studied.

Full text
Abstract:
This practice-led research was initiated in response to a series of violent encounters that occurred between my fragile installations and viewers. The central focus of this study was to recuperate my installation practice in the wake of such events. This led to the development of a ‘responsive practice’ methodology, which reframed the installation process through an ethical lens developed from Emmanuel Levinas’ ethical phenomenology. The central propositions of this research are the reconceptualisation of ‘violent encounters’ in terms of difference whereby I accept viewers responses, even those which are violent, destructive or damaging, and secondly that the process operates as a generative excess for practice through which recuperative strategies can be found and implemented. By re-examining this process as it unfolded in the three phases of the practical component, I developed strategies whereby violated, destroyed or damaged works could be recuperated through the processes of reconfiguration, reparation and regeneration. Therefore my installations embody and articulate vulnerability but also demonstrate resilience and renewal.

The introduction lays out the book’s terms, critical concerns, method, and historical and theoretical contexts. Explaining how printed ephemera transformed the texture of everyday middle- and working-class life throughout the nineteenth century, peaking in the 1860s and 1890s, it then shows how affect, itself an ephemeral human condition, registered the new social relations that mass media reorganized. The introduction explains the book’s engagement with theorists of media and mass media such as Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno and Marx Horkheimer, and Friedrich Kittler; and theorists of affect and mass culture such as Eve Sedgwick, Lauren Berlant, and Kathleen Stewart. It describes the cultural evidence the book assembles, such as temperance medals, cigarette cards, ink blot games, and novels; and describes each chapter.

Abstract Chapter 2 examines another sort of volume. Attempts to preserve the embodied moment, to capture and keep experience, Victorian albums (especially friendship, autograph, and botanical) were gatherings of pressed objects that could seem to spring off of the page—moss, locks of hair, ribbons, feathers, valentines, lace, and other material memories. Attached with paste, wafers, thread, or straight pins, theater programs, printed menus for special meals, lecture flyers, letters, and the like needed to be folded out to be read—three-dimensional layers that required the hand as well as the eye. Such assemblages influenced writers like Gaskell, a collector of personal ephemera who used her fiction to think about the pulling together of fragments (bodies, scraps, reused household items, and memories).

Abstract:
Focusing on middle class Ecuadoreans, this chapter explores the paper ephemera and other accoutrements that surround cash payments: account books, receipts, cloth storage sacks, digital calculators, graph paper, and notebooks. It focuses on a rotating savings and credit association of a particular family, and shows how under president Rafael Correa, Ecuador adopted an explicit policy of recognizing and leveraging such informal credit associations toward its vision of a “popular and solidary economy.” Despite efforts to stabilize or fix such informal arrangements, however, they remain open-ended, involving a plurality of practices and ideas which also involved formal banking. In fact, the receipt and the account book are at the intersection of informal credit associations’ connection to formal banking. The chapter argues that the technologies of the formal banking system, far from dominating or subsuming the informal, in fact get bent to its purposes and concerns.

Abstract:
Chapter two investigates an overlooked archive of tobacco ephemera, the smoke-room booklets, cigarette cards, and periodicals meant to be consumed by men while smoking. Tobacco-related poems, pictures, and print forms produced a self-referential discourse that compared smoking to consuming print, through puns on “leaves,” “volumes,” and “puffs” of speech preserved in paper. Through the medium of smoke, mass print self-consciously began to mediate fantasy, mental relaxation, and reverie. The most famous nineteenth-century literary smoker, Arthur Conan Doyle’s fictional detective Sherlock Holmes, figures this addictive dependency on print in his iconic pipe. His media “addiction” – really a reliance on obscure information – reflects readers’ desire for encyclopedic knowledge. Such desires for cultural mastery drove the popularity of cigarette cards, which featured trivia, and became a staple of working- and middle-class life from their invention in the 1890s. Reframing Holmes as the first “information addict,” the chapter tells the back story of our current intensified appetite for information in a knowledge economy governed by mass media.

Abstract:
Chapter Five clarifies theoretically the overlaps and distinctions between problematizing contemporary mass incarceration in terms of capitalist production, on the one hand, and in terms of social reproduction, on the other. Greater precision in this regard opens out the question rather than assumption of “racial” significance and signification today, specifically with reference to the “prison industrial complex” as a process of genocide—systematic extermination through arrested life and social incapacitation. Chapter Five concludes by examining the manipulation of prison mail in acts of retaliation and torture: wherein punishment does not operate primarily to discipline a labor force but to deaden those who refuse to be neutralized. Considering the letter as sign of living potential in this context, this chapter ultimately views the violence it magnetizes not as the negation but as the most apparent “evidence” of the letter’s social force.

Abstract:
A nineteenth-century optical toy, the paper peepshow is often considered to be the perfect medium to represent the Thames Tunnel. Yet, this perception overlooks the contradictory sentiments evoked by using the paper peepshow. This chapter, focusing on the period when the tunnel was under construction, seeks to analyze these paradoxes. Admittedly, various features of the paper peepshow can indeed render it a fitting medium to represent the tunnel. Yet, the expanded paper peepshow constitutes a space that is ephemeral, because of its brief existence and its fragility. While the ephemeral quality appears to contradict the monumental impression of the tunnel, this contrast would speak to the nineteenth-century English middle classes’ ambivalent attitude towards technological advancement, embodied in the tunnel.

Full text
Abstract:
Space is typically demarcated by its physical boundaries. The solidity of wall, ceiling and floor define architectural interiors. Space in the landscape, though structurally similar, is bounded by larger-scale material conditions, such as tree canopies, horizon, sky, and ground. How can architectural space be defined without architectural materials? As a proposal for the use of temperature as a space-making material for design, this design research project draws from philosophy and phenomenology to understand the body as an instrument for sensory experience. Architectural case studies are used to redefine the notion of physical, visually perceived space and ways intangible experiences are at the forefront of a design. It investigates how the manipulation of geothermal water can unlock the performative, ephemeral, and experiential characteristics of temperature as a material for redefining spatial thresholds within the geothermal landscape of Iceland.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2020, I created a body of work that paid attention to the concerns of body image representation of the gay male. The work was shown in a local exhibition in Auckland, called ‘Bear Bodies in Motion’, and it aimed as a critique on the anxieties of body image, especially in the gay bear subculture where there are considerable levels of stigma and shaming of bigger male bodies – made more profound towards bodies of colour. In an attempt at subversion, the creative work, portrayed the bigger body as energetic and aesthetically potent. It combined photography with digital painting and the result was an expression of body acceptance and authorship. Thematically, the image of the gay bear builds on a rich history of homo-oriented art. It plays on the tapestry of the gay identity which determines how it is being represented, negotiated and remixed continually in the gay mainstream. Discourse emanating from gay communities of colour, speaks of attempts to remove colonised attitudes, and in reimagining their heritage and sexual identities authentically. This artistic body of work sought to add to the dialogue that surrounds issues of race, queerness and ‘otherness’. The subsequent conversations which followed the exhibition, unpacked concerns of cultural identity, masculinity and belonging – in which seem to be heavily burdened by western-influenced and racialised notions of performativity. Through research, and taking in the ephemera that surrounds the discourse of the colonised body image, I begun to create work that seeks to further add to the discourse. This heavily illustrated paper reflects on the creative process in the art making of ‘Bear Bodies in Motion’. The methodology underpinning this artistic body of work is ‘reflection-in-action’, and it draws inspiration from research in the ‘lived experience’. Additionally it also consider its move from traditional mediums to the consideration of technology as a platform for storytelling, from the print medium to digital spaces – in this instance, the inclusion of Augmented Reality (AR). With this extension, AR provides the viewer the opportunity to take a more active role in reading the text. The experience moves the work into a more participatory space, where the narrative becomes more palpable and appreciated. The making journey is outlined from conceptual stage to the finalised artistic work from my personal lens who is both artist-maker and design practitioner. This paper also discusses the challenges and conflicts in creating a body of work of this nature. Especially of concern is its need for sensitivity in the representation of non-euro cultures – with greater emphasis given to the consideration for its homosexual themes, and to the identities of my participants as they were from the community itself. This paper also includes my reflections and personal insights in how this approach to a practice-led research has contributed to my own learning and teaching approach. Being an educator myself, this process has given me greater empathy and understanding in the student journey within today’s higher education environment.

Teachers’ spatial behaviours in the classroom can strongly influence students’ engagement, motivation and other behaviours that shape their learning. However, classroom teaching behav-iour is ephemeral, and has largely remained opaque to computational analysis. This paper presents a library called ‘Moodoo’ that can serve to automatically model how teachers make use of the classroom space by analysing indoor positioning traces. The system automatically ex-tracts spatial metrics (e.g. teacher-student ratios, frequency of visits to students’ personal spaces, presence in classroom spaces of interest, index of dispersion and entropy), mapping from the teachers’ low-level positioning data to higher-order spatial constructs.

In this paper, we will review the requirements on laser power and beam quality for active tracking of missiles and satellites. We will compare the cases of solar illumination and laser illumination from a theoretical and also simulation standpoint, and we will show results obtained from Starfire Optical Range and White Sands Missile Range using active tracking lasers. The potential benefits for active tracking include full sky coverage for orbiting debris, laser ranging for ephemeris updating, and precision tracking for boosting missiles. Other aspects of the laser requirements will also be presented, including the impacts of speckle and jitter coupling.

Abstract:
For the designer, imagination travels in the line. Lines can redraw the present, defy conventions, recast new orders and shape the future. Lines establish territorial boundaries, communicate written language and construction intentions yet lines are also fluid. When experienced in the world, lines can be ephemeral and dynamic and inspire a methodological interplay between perception and precision. In this regard, lines are liquid. Conversely, when liquid is represented through the act of drawing lines, a similarly incomplete view is formed. It is within these gaps between time and matter or certainty and precision, that lines can reveal opportunities for design. By slipping into a mindset that crosses, tests, traces and inhabits lines, then the limits of what is “in” or “out” and “here” versus “there” melt away. Instead, this paper positions an attitude toward design that revels in contingency and speculates on the temporal and material qualities that make architecture a thriving component of the dynamic, built environment. To illustrate these ambitions, this paper revisits the lost disciplinary legacy of the term disegno and explores contemporary ideas emerging from the consideration of “atmosphere” in the formulation of architectural ideas. Three projects illustrate this proposition and draw “liquid lines” to produce conditions of “both and” by practicing expanded perception and dynamic precision.

Abstract:
Abstract The oscillating heat pipe is considered a promising candidate for high-efficiency and compact thermal control for next-generation electronics. In this paper, the visualized flow and heat transfer characteristics of two silicon-based micro oscillating heat pipes (micro-OHPs) with expanding and straight channels, respectively, were experimentally investigated. The overall size of these two micro-OHPs are both 28 mm × 23 mm × 1.025 mm and have thirty rectangular cross-section channels. The hydraulic diameter of parallel direct channel is 332.4 μm, while they are about 364.4 and 287.0 μm at the two ends of expanding channel, respectively. R141b was used as the working fluid with the volumetric filling ratio of 50%. Inside these two micro-devices, the fluid oscillating motion, including unidirectional movement and intermittent stopovers, was observed at the quasi-steady oscillation state, accompanied by bubbly flow, slug flow and annular/semi-annular flow in microchannels. The micro-OHP with expanding channels possessed better thermal performance and could achieve ephemeral circulation flow, while poorer heat transfer performance occurred for the micro-OHP with straight channels due to more localized slug/plug oscillations and intermittent stopovers. The oscillating amplitudes of liquid slugs are presented to estimate the flow behavior of working fluid inside micro-OHPs. The introduction of expanding channels in a micro-OHP is beneficial for realizing the more robust oscillating motion of liquid slugs with larger oscillating amplitudes for heat transfer enhancement.

Abstract:
This paper reviews tendencies and drives for future parametric computational design and robotic fabrication/construction automation. It sheds light on the local current impact of the computational paradigm and mass-customized robotic fabrication in Kuwait. This paper is intended to answer the following two questions: Is parametric design and robotic fabrication allowing for emergent architectural topologies? Is robotic fabrication a catalyst for legitimizing change in architectural traditions at a local level? This has been experimented on two building scales. One with more ephemeral or transient nomadic pavilions, designed by the author, intended to demand our momentary attention, offering essential opportunities for research, experimentation, heuristic testing and prototyping - public delight and exposure. Though impermanent, these can even go so far as to be catalysts for positive change displaying affirmative qualities of temporal architecture. On the other hand, the author shares parametric design and robotic fabrication practices/consultation on local permanent mega structures currently under construction. Such mega buildings act as proof that geometrically complex buildings do not stay in the realm of small experimental and heuristic research only, but incorporated in large-scale complex building, branding and placing countries on the global map. Robotic fabrication and construction gives rise to new paradigms such as "zero-tolerance" building with "file-to-factory" production allowing for Ruskinian tectonics blending structures with ornamental aesthetics, similar to gothic architecture. With the profusion of robotic fabrication and construction, the author claims that change in the physical built environment is eminent. A final inquiry will be raised as a future research topic pertaining to robotic in-situ "mobility-on-demand", Artificial Intelligence, "Machine Learning", "Big Data" and "evolutionary robotics" which raises the question of what will our future mass-customized cities look like and what type of physical infrastructure is needed to facilitate mobile robotic fabrication and construction.

Abstract:
Fact-based knowledge prevails in the teaching of technical subjects, but the professional practice of architecture requires that we give the same importance to know-how. This paper presents a proposal that seeks to emulate architectural practice by developing a project from the technical approach of four subjects: Geometry I (1º), Installations I (2º), Structures I (2º) and Structures III (3º). The proposal received funding thanks to the university's own teaching innovation grants. The project required students to design and calculate an ephemeral pavilion with a wooden structure. Working collaboratively and vertically, that is, in groups with at least one student from each subject, the final work was evaluated in the four participating subjects. The aim of this proposal was to increase the motivation of the students by making them see the connection between the knowledge of the technical subjects in an architectural project. El conocimiento basado en hechos prevalece en la enseñanza de las asignaturas técnicas, pero la práctica profesional de la arquitectura requiere que demos la misma importancia al saber hacer. Esta comunicación presenta una propuesta que busca emular la práctica de la arquitectura desarrollando un proyecto desde el enfoque técnico de cuatro asignaturas: Geometría I (1º), Instalaciones I (2º), Estructuras I (2º) y Estructuras III (3º). La propuesta recibió financiación gracias a las becas de innovación docente de la propia universidad. El proyecto requería que los alumnos diseñaran y calcularan un pabellón efímero con estructura de madera. Trabajando de forma colaborativa y vertical, es decir, en grupos con al menos un alumno de cada asignatura, el trabajo final fue evaluado en las cuatro asignaturas participantes. Con esta propuesta se buscaba aumentar la motivación de los alumnos haciéndoles ver la conexión entre los conocimientos de las asignaturas técnicas en un proyecto de arquitectura.
