We explore the vision of closed-loop bio-digital interfaces for human augmentation, where the bio-digital system allows for both sensing and writing biological information to the body. Current-generation wearable devices sense an individual's physiological data such as heart rate, respiration, electrodermal activity, and EEG, but lack in sensing their biological counterparts, which drive the majority of individual's physiological signals. On the other hand, biosensors for detecting biochemical markers are currently limited to one-time use, are non-continuous and don't provide flexibility in choosing which biomarker they sense. We believe that the future for wearable biosensors lies in going beyond specific sensing capabilities and becoming a wearable "lab" on body, where a small device can offer a fully integrated and re-configurable system that mimics several processes usually performed in the laboratory for clinical diagnostics and analysis of human health. To illustrate our vision of having a lab on body, we prototyped "Wearable Lab" a bio-digital platform for sensing biochemical and digital data from saliva. Our platform contains digital sensors such as an IMU for activity recognition, as well as an automated system for continuous sampling of biomarkers from saliva by leveraging existing paper-based biochemical sensors. The platform could aid with longitudinal studies of biomarkers and early diagnosis of diseases. We present example data collected from the device, show a preliminary evaluation, and discuss the limitation of our platform.

Umansky, Dimitrij. "The male world of football media and beer drinking: a case study of sports bars in Cape Town, South Africa." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13024.
Full textThe present study explores the practice of football media viewing in sports bars. It is based on the constructivism research paradigm (Guba & Lincoln, 2005), a conceptualisation of media as a tool for social behaviour (Couldry, 2003) and James Wertsch’s (1998) Mediated Action Theory. The study analyses two dimensions of football media viewing in sports bars: it focuses on the psychological motivations and the socio-cultural structure. The study’s main objective is to understand both the role of media for the practice of football media viewing in sports bars and the constitution of gender during the practice. It is a subject worthy of in-depth examination as there is a lack of holistic, contextualised and critical research in media studies, particularly in the field of football media consumption. The study applied ethnographic observations of two sports bars in a middle-class suburb in Cape Town as well as on-site and off-site interviews. During this time the researcher balanced subjective experiences with social meanings and scientific theories in a reflexive and flexible manner. The results reveal a complex network of individual purposes and socio-cultural tools. On the individual level they explain which media aspects are important to serve patrons’ needs and why male patrons discriminate against women. On the socio-cultural level the results show how media, gender and other tools interact to influence patrons’ behaviour. The study concludes by suggesting how media can be used to create enjoyable social environments and how social structures can be altered to create a more equal society beyond the sports bar environment.

Full textLa presente investigación, tuvo como propósito general, conocer las expectativas académicas y laborales, de los estudiantes de ambos sexos, de enseñanza media de niveles socio-culturales medio alto y medio bajo. Las principales motivaciones que me levaron a realizar esta investigación educativa fueron: La primera motivación para realizar una investigación referida a las expectativas de los estudiantes en contextos socioculturales diversos, viene dada por mi experiencia pedagógica con alumnos de distintas clases sociales y geográficamente distantes a lo largo de mi carera docente. La segunda razón que me motivó a desarolar esta investigación tiene que ver con el efecto que ha producido en la sociedad el movimiento estudiantil y con las demandas que elos sostienen hasta hoy, especialmente aquelas que son de carácter estructural, que son las más difíciles de conseguir. Así mismo, son las más difíciles de influir sobre la clase política y técnica que no siempre están cercanas a la realidad. Es así, que la desigualdad social, se replica directamente con la desigualdad educativa en Chile.3 También me motivó a realizar esta investigación la inquietud que surgió durante el proceso académico a largo del Magíster en Educación de la Universidad de Chile. El proceso de reflexión crítica realizado durante las diversas actividades formativas, guiadas por los docentes del programa, fueron importantes ya que relevaron el tema educativo en un momento en donde el tema no era una prioridad en la agenda nacional. Finalmente, hacer una contribución a la comprensión sobre las causas de la desigualdad social, específicamente la desigualdad educativa, tema que es un imperativo ético, que debe enfrentarse y ser resuelto como sociedad.

Full textBrand identities among musicians often have a shattered appearance and are used inconsistent, compared to product and service corporations. Thereof, the study aimed to research if a logotype should be considered important for a musician and how a logotype can be designed to be as advantageous as possible for a musician. Few studies have been made within the subject of musicians and logotypes, therefore, research about brand identities and logotype design intended for product- and service corporations was studied. The studies showed that a brand identity should communicate who you are as a company through a uniformed appearance that is used consistently. Furthermore, the studies showed that a logotype should have high contrast, be distinguishing and slightly detailed, to be considered as strong. To answer the objective, three different sorts of logotypes were designed and evaluated through interviews with 15 respondents. The three types were text logotype, abstract symbol logotype and picturing symbol logotype. These were valued based on fulfillment of key values, creation of the right associations, conformance with the music and the opportunity for recognition. The evaluation showed that a logotype with a symbol was preferable since it gave a higher level of recognition. Furthermore, the abstract logotype was preferred by the respondents and it achieved the most criterias and aspects considered for a strong logotype. The abstract design also enabled the creation of new intrinsic meaning that can be adapted to suit the brand of the musician.
