In the past decade, the creative city discourse has pulsated with activity, with academics, policy wonks, national organizations, and community non-profits attempting to find footholds in the conversation. By applying the lessons of 20th-century industrial complexes, or "technopoles," to a new conception of production in the 21st century, city builders, planners, and business developers tackle the new role of fitting the commercial creative sector into Castells's 'networks' and this creative city discourse, in order to generate innovation in the creative city. The thesis aims to closely examine the role that for-profit creative production now plays in the 21st century urban economic engine and the ways in which synergy may be created by and among many individual creative firms in the city. The thesis uses the borough of Brooklyn, in New York City, as a case and example of how to go about supporting new kinds of urban creative clusters. The thesis proposes principles, guidelines, and an approach to cluster development, not as a universal solution for currently uncoordinated clustering, but as a place-based example for applying the principles of this thesis. I will review the evolution of 21st-century production and the emergence of the creative economy, including the case for locating creative production centers in metropolitan locales, in order to illustrate the shape of the new production landscape in the creative city.
(cont.) I next present a framework for organizing and developing a 21st-century creative cluster, and outline fourteen key ingredients to their development. Finally, I apply this framework to a creative-cluster development strategy in Brooklyn, identifying three possible areas of intervention where creative firms already operate, and propose a public-private management entity structure to provide the necessary synergistic 'glue.'

The devastating struck of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in late summer of 2005 was deadly and immense. The storm destroyed over 170 drinking water facilities and 47 wastewater treatments around the city, and resulted the shortage of fresh water supply. The mixing of industry chemical, debris, bacteria and decomposing bodies in flooded water made this water horribly poisoned. Thus, the water supply condition was contaminated and become unfit for drinking. Although the government did not declare the lack of clean water in New Orleans as a major issue during Hurricane Katrina disaster, it is in fact a compounding element in the overall disaster, which should have greater priority. Drinking water needed to be delivered from elsewhere, running water was shut down because the clean water facilities were destroyed. Yet the only water available was contaminated. These issues created dire difficulty for those who provided help and those who needed assistance. Thus, the focus of this thesis lies in the issue of water and architecture in which will be perceived through the eye of sustainable architecture. More importantly, the thesis highlights ways to integrate and employ water in architecture in the most desirable and efficient fashion. The thesis rebuilds a new City Hall for the City of New Orleans as a design project. In this endeavor it aims to combine a sustainable technology blending in with the symbol of government in a building. Thus a new City Hall spirit is encapsulated in the government building to project out beyond the 21st century.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis dissertation reads twentieth and twenty-first century U.S. multicultural literatures, women’s literature, and science-fiction film and literature to identify a tradition of literary representation of long-standing patterns of economic entrapment in American cities.” I argue that the capitalist ideologies of opportunity and spatial, economic, and social mobility associated with American cities have been largely false promises, and that literature provides an avenue to investigate the ideological matrices and cultural narratives that American capitalism uses to situate bodies where it needs them, primarily in urban centers. I claim that this entrapment remains more or less a constant in American cities despite the fact that both capitalism and the space of the city have radically changed since the late 1930s. I further claim that the persistence of this entrapment across different instantiations of both the American city and American capitalism speak to its normalization, acceptance, and the fact of its continuing legacy. As the ideological narratives are culturally projected as ones of the promise and freedom of mobility in cities, and as the historical conditions of entrapment have proven so resilient, literature and film have constituted important tools for exposing just how these capitalist ideologies generate consent for hegemonic capitalism. The dissertation seeks to understand how a large percentage of urban populations are interpellated by the very capitalist machinery which fixes them in space and class while simultaneously denying them the benefits of American capitalism.

Resumo: Os desenvolvimentos sócio-técnicos observados em torno da internet, ao longo dos anos 2000, são fundamentais para entendermos o processo de formação de uma nova geração produtora e consumidora de música no Brasil. Este processo é especialmente significativo quando se considera a música produzida pela chamada ?cena brasileira independente? contemporânea. Neste contexto, cada vez mais artistas partícipes desta cena, viabilizando seus trabalhos sem o aporte de grandes gravadoras, têm alcançado repercussão significativa junto a públicos segmentados, obtendo crescente reconhecimento em premiações nacionais de música e em uma gama variada de mídias especializadas, nas quais esta produção musical tem sido apontada como responsável por muitas das inovações e contribuições estéticas mais significativas no atual panorama da ?música brasileira? contemporânea. A chamada ?cena independente paulistana? do início dos anos 2010, e seus artistas, têm assumido um papel de relevo neste cenário, projetando muitos dos principais nomes associados ao que tem sido identificado e discursado, no período, como um ?novo momento da música brasileira?. O objetivo principal desta pesquisa foi identificar e analisar - a partir de vasto levantamento de dados sobre o campo enfocado e de entrevistas com artistas e produtores, realizadas presencialmente ou obtidas a partir de publicações na internet - as principais especificidades desta ?cena paulistana? responsáveis por singularizá-la, potencializar suas condições criativas e/ou de produção e a distinguir em relação a: (1) momentos anteriores da ?produção musical independente? no Brasil; (2) o conjunto da produção fonográfica contemporânea no país; (3) a ?cena independente e o novo momento da música brasileira?, mais particularmente. Com respeito aos conjuntos (1) e (2) assume importância fundamental as novidades trazidas pelas tecnologias digitais e pelos novos processos econômicos e novas políticas culturais observados no país nos últimos 15 anos. Na composição da especificidade da ?cena paulistana? em relação à ?cena independente brasileira? mais ampla (3), têm se destacado centralmente as oportunidades privilegiadas encontradas em São Paulo-SP para o desenvolvimento, sustentabilidade e repercussão de trabalhos musicais autorais independentes. Estas oportunidades serão responsáveis pela migração de um conjunto significativo de artistas independentes de outros estados brasileiros para o solo paulistano, nos últimos anos. A contribuição estética variada e diferenciada, trazida por estes músicos migrantes, se somará à peculiaridade da cultura musical paulistana e aos talentos criativos de seus artistas, bem como às vivências urbanas próprias à cidade, compondo-se, assim, a especificidade musical desta cena - cena marcada, de modo importante, por um alto nível de produção colaborativa entre seus agentes, e por trabalhos que tem buscado se afirmar para além de gêneros e categorizações musicais específicas
Abstract: The socio-technical developments related to the Internet between 2000 and 2010 are essential for an understanding of the process of formation of a new generation of music producers and consumers in Brazil. This process is especially significant when one considers the music put out by the so-called contemporary "independent Brazilian scene." Growing numbers of musicians took part in this scene and produced their work with no backing from the large recording companies and they have been very well received by segmented markets. They have won Brazilian awards in music and they have been recognized in a broad range of specialized media, where their musical output has been considered responsible for many of the innovations and significant aesthetic contributions in today's panorama of contemporary "Brazilian music." The so-called "São Paulo independent scene" of the early 2010s and its musicians have assumed an outstanding role in this context, projecting many of the most outstanding names associated with what has been described as a "new moment in Brazilian music." The main objective of the study for this paper was to identify and analyze the main specific aspects of this "São Paulo scene." The research is based on a careful collection of data about the field and on interviews with musicians and producers. Interviews were carried out in person or taken from publications found on the Internet. Several specific aspects of this "São Paulo scene" are responsible for stimulating the creativity and productivity of this phenomenon and, at the same time, distinguish it (1) from preceding historical periods of "independent musical production" in Brazil; (2) from the overall contemporary phonographic production in Brazil; and, especially, (3) from the "independent scene and new moment in Brazilian music." With respect to Items 1 and 2, new aspects brought on by digital technologies, new economic advances and new political-cultural observed in Brazil over the last 15 years have all been particularly important. The exceptional opportunities found in São Paulo for the development, continuation and repercussion of independent musical production have all stood out in the specific character of the "São Paulo scene" vis-a-vis the broader "independent Brazilian scene" (Item 3). These opportunities stimulated the migration to São Paulo of a great many independent musicians from other states in Brazil in recent years. The varied and distinct aesthetic contribution brought by these musicians has joined hands with the peculiar musical culture of São Paulo, the creative talent of its musicians, and the city's intense urban character. It is a scene strongly marked by a high level of cooperative output by its agents and by work that has sought to assert itself beyond specific musical genres and categories

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleDer Einsatz von interaktiven Oberflächen weitet sich mehr und mehr auf die unterschiedlichsten Lebensbereiche aus. Damit sind sie eine mögliche Ausprägung von Mark Weisers Vision der allgegenwärtigen Computer, die aus unserer direkten Wahrnehmung verschwinden. Bei einer Vielzahl von technischen Geräten des täglichen Lebens, wie Smartphones, Tablets oder interaktiven Tischen, sind berührungsempfindliche Oberflächen bereits heute in Benutzung. Schon seit vielen Jahren arbeiten Forscher an einer Weiterentwicklung der Technik, um ihre Vorteile auch in anderen Bereichen, wie beispielsweise der Interaktion zwischen Mensch und Automobil, nutzbar zu machen. Und das mit Erfolg: Interaktive Benutzeroberflächen werden mittlerweile serienmäßig in vielen Fahrzeugen eingesetzt. Der Einbau von immer größeren, in das Cockpit integrierten Touchscreens in Konzeptfahrzeuge zeigt, dass sich diese Entwicklung weiter in vollem Gange befindet. Interaktive Oberflächen ermöglichen das flexible Anzeigen von kontextsensitiven Inhalten und machen eine direkte Interaktion mit den Bildschirminhalten möglich. Auf diese Weise erfüllen sie die sich wandelnden Informations- und Interaktionsbedürfnisse in besonderem Maße. Beim Einsatz von Bedienschnittstellen im Fahrzeug ist die gefahrlose Benutzbarkeit während der Fahrt von besonderer Bedeutung. Insbesondere visuelle Ablenkung von der Fahraufgabe kann zu kritischen Situationen führen, wenn Primär- und Sekundäraufgaben mehr als die insgesamt verfügbare Aufmerksamkeit des Fahrers beanspruchen. Herkömmliche Touchscreens stellen dem Fahrer bisher lediglich eine flache Oberfläche bereit, die keinerlei haptische Rückmeldung bietet, weshalb deren Bedienung besonders viel visuelle Aufmerksamkeit erfordert. Verschiedene Ansätze ermöglichen dem Fahrer, direkte Touchinteraktion für einfache Aufgaben während der Fahrt zu nutzen. Außerhalb der Automobilindustrie, zum Beispiel für Büroarbeitsplätze, wurden bereits verschiedene Konzepte für eine komplexere Bedienung großer Bildschirme vorgestellt. Darüber hinaus führt der technologische Fortschritt zu neuen möglichen Ausprägungen interaktiver Oberflächen und erlaubt, diese beliebig zu formen. Für die nächste Generation von interaktiven Oberflächen im Fahrzeug wird vor allem an der Modifikation der Kategorien Größe und Form gearbeitet. Die Bedienschnittstelle wird nicht nur durch größere Bildschirme erweitert, sondern auch dadurch, dass Objekte wie Dekorleisten in die Interaktion einbezogen werden können. Andererseits heben aktuelle Technologieentwicklungen die Restriktion auf flache Oberflächen auf, so dass Touchscreens künftig ertastbare Strukturen aufweisen können. Diese Dissertation beschreibt die systematische Untersuchung großer und nicht-flacher interaktiver Oberflächen und analysiert ihr Potential für die Interaktion während der Fahrt. Dazu wurden für jede Charakteristik verschiedene Prototypen entwickelt und in Testumgebungen entsprechend ihres Reifegrads evaluiert. Auf diese Weise konnten subjektives Nutzerfeedback und objektive Daten erhoben, und die Effekte auf Fahr- und Blickverhalten sowie Nutzbarkeit untersucht werden. Diese Dissertation leistet den Beitrag einer Analyse der Entwicklung von interaktiven Oberflächen im Automobilbereich. Weiterhin werden die Aspekte Größe und Form untersucht, um mit ihrer Hilfe die Interaktion im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Touchscreens zu verbessern. Die durchgeführten Studien belegen, dass große Flächen neue und verbesserte Bedienmöglichkeiten bieten können. Außerdem zeigt sich ein positiver Effekt auf die visuelle Ablenkung, wenn zusätzliches statisches, haptisches Feedback durch nicht-flache Oberflächen bereitgestellt wird. Zusammenfassend zeigen verschiedene, untereinander kombinierbare Interaktionskonzepte das Potential interaktiver Oberflächen für den automotiven Einsatz. Zudem können die Ergebnisse auch in anderen Bereichen Anwendung finden, in denen visuelle Aufmerksamkeit für andere Aufgaben benötigt wird.

Since the collapse of Japan's so called "bubble economy" in the early 1990s, Japanese banks have struggled to recover their former strength, facing an unprecedented amount of bad debts. Although major banks seem to have passed a toughest period in terms of bad debts, the new environment requires them to fight in more competitive markets, where foreign financial institutions and other new entrants are active. Recent announcements of large mergers show that Japanese banking industry is now in the middle of restructuring in order to survive in the face of tougher competition and to develop sustainable competitiveness. Their style in managing business is also changing by adopting U.S. model. This thesis studies the changing environment, which includes the change of economy, society, regulations, human resource etc. It examines the restructuring of banking industry in Japan, taking examples such as Mizuho Financial Group. Finally, I try to propose a direction which they should take toward the 21st century.

Public authorities and private developers around the world are attempting to create and sustain hubs within the innovation-based economy by fostering successful urban environments. These large-scale developments succeed an earlier generation of post-industrial "technopoles" named after the French word popularized by Castells and Hall in Technopoles of the World (1994). In the 1990s, most planned technopoles resembled suburban office environments with generous landscaping, wide roads, and automobile-focused circulation systems. In contrast, today's economic development experts are increasingly emphasizing the need for interaction and cross-fertilization among companies and institutions in an attempt to foster innovation, from which successful communities are assumed to derive their competitive edge in an information- based economy. Parallel shifts in live-work patterns among creative talent groups are being documented in social science and anecdotal observations. These trends have heightened competition for qualified individuals and initiated a talent war among cities globally. And these individuals are living footloose lifestyles supported by mobile devices and wireless connectivity. Entrepreneurial public agencies and private developers have recognized the potential for reconceiving live-work environments as economic hubs. These holistic projects are identified as 21st century technopoles because they directly address and capitalize on the socio-economic shifts described above leading to vastly different ideal urban configurations. The thesis asks how urban form is expected to contribute to innovation; and, how urban form is being reconceptualized in turn at the neighborhood scale.
(cont.) Four case studies provide a rich narrative that begins to sketch the range of proposed urban developments: Cyberjaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Digital Media City, Seoul, Korea; one-north, Singapore; Lower Manhattan, New York. A narrative ties the four cases together providing "thick descriptions" as a base-line study for a new mode of technopole development. The analysis reaches from (1) "hardware" or the urban built environment and (2) "wiring" or the embedded and supported technologies to (3) "software" or the actors involved. The case studies indicate several emergent themes that are rescripting our urban environments. Dense urban zones with a high level of sensory diversity are being proposed for emerging technopoles that capitalize on the city as a metaphor for human interaction and exchange. Real estate value in this system is measured by the number of serendipitous encounters it facilitates. The dichotomous relationship between spaces of places and spaces of flows set forth by Castells seems inapplicable within the boundaries of these zones that are at once core and periphery, local and global. Finally, these developments are living laboratories for the technologies that support new live-work preferences and shifting lifestyles. Several contradictions become apparent in delving more deeply into the examples, which are still under development. In the promotional materials, diversity - demographic and physical - is embraced, but it is not clear how it will contribute to innovation. More generally, the projects plan for often unpredictable "knowledge accidents." ...

There is considerable research on concepts of Blackness in America. Much of this research is conducted within a Eurocentric as opposed to an Afrocentric perspective. Social research has established that ideals, social norms, and values about Black minority groups may be shaped by dominant culture premises and that the dominant culture of any society can influence the attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors of minority group members coexisting within that culture. The White racial frame holds that over time a dominant cultural perspective in the U.S. has installed a positive orientation to “White” and whiteness and a strong negative orientation toward racial “others”, particularly toward Black Americans. The present research explores this phenomenon from an Afrocentric perspective, assessing propinquity preferences of non-native Immigrant and native-born American Blacks toward native-born Blacks. Utilizing data drawn from The National Survey on American Life 2001-2003 (Jackson, 2007) the study assessed the degree of Black propinquity (i.e., self-identified feelings of closeness and identity preferences with native-born Blacks) expressed within and between subsamples of native-born African American (n = 3,464) and non-native (chiefly Afro-Caribbean) Blacks (n = 1,118). More specifically, it hypothesized that native-born Blacks would display greater propinquity preferences than Immigrant Blacks for native-American Blacks depicted as more economically-challenged as well as socially affluent and elite; also, it expected they would report greater support for socially undesirable as well as socially desirable Blacks than would Immigrant Blacks. A series of hierarchical regression analyses modeled the unique and joint predictive variance of socio-demographic, socio-economic, and Black (derived) target characteristics within each Black subpopulation against the primary outcome variable (propinquity). Overall regression models for each Black group were highly similar in the proportion of explained variance (27% for native Blacks; 26% for Immigrant Blacks) and weighted contributions of three blocks of variables; derived variables for Black target characteristics contributed most of the total variance within each group. No statistically reliable differences for R score values were found between the two Black subpopulations on these derived variables. Findings are discussed in the context of the White racial frame perspective, secondary data methodology, and future research.
