Abstract:
Study of the politics of popular culture has tended to focus on the familiar territory of censorship, propaganda and protest. Without wishing to deny the importance of these aspects of popular culture's politics, this article argues for a broader perspective, one that encompasses policy and aesthetics. It suggests not only that the recent interest in both aesthetics and policy is important to the politics of culture, but that the two need to be linked: that political values and arrangements shape aesthetic judgements and that aesthetic values inform policy decisions. This argument is developed through an analysis of recent debates about aesthetic judgement, focusing in particular on the work of Simon Frith.

Abstract:
When creating an artwork, the artist makes a decision regarding the orientation at which the work is to be hung based on their aesthetic judgement and the message conveyed by the piece. Is the impact or aesthetic appeal of a work diminished when it is hung at an incorrect orientation? To investigate this question, Experiment 1 asked whether naïve observers can appreciate the correct orientation (as defined by the artist) of 40 modern artworks, some of which are entirely abstract. Eighteen participants were shown 40 paintings in a series of trials. Each trial presented all four cardinal orientations on a computer screen, and the participant was asked to select the orientation that was most attractive or meaningful. Results showed that the correct orientation was selected in 48% of trials on average, significantly above the 25% chance level, but well below perfect performance. A second experiment investigated the extent to which the 40 paintings contained recognisable content, which may have mediated orientation judgements. Recognition rates varied from 0% for seven of the paintings to 100% for five paintings. Orientation judgements in Experiment 1 correlated significantly with “meaningful” content judgements in Experiment 2: 42% of the variance in orientation judgements in Experiment 1 was shared with recognition of meaningful content in Experiment 2. For the seven paintings in which no meaningful content at all was detected, 41% of the variance in orientation judgements was shared with variance in a physical measure of image content, Fourier amplitude spectrum slope. For some paintings, orientation judgements were quite consistent, despite a lack of meaningful content. The origin of these orientation judgements remains to be identified.

Abstract:
AbstractKant interpreters are divided on the question of whether determinate cognition plays a role in the harmony of the faculties in aesthetic judgement. I provide a ‘non-cognitive’ interpretation that allows Kant’s statements regarding judgements of natural beauty to cohere such that determinate cognition need not be taken to perform any role in such judgements. I argue that, in aesthetic harmony, judgement privileges the free activity of the imagination over the cognizing function of the understanding for the purpose of unifying the object, although the free imagination cannot violate the obscure concepts and principles of ordinary common sense.

Abstract:
This paper engages with the aesthetics of knowl-edge, both in its sense as the connection between knowledge and ‘aesthetic’ judgements of beauty, or ugliness, and of the many ‘aesthetic’ – that is to say sensually perceivable – dimensions of knowledge, which are always to be seen to be constituting an epistemic factor in its production and consumption. On the one hand I analyse how in recent decades the connection between beauty and truth has been systematically employed to both inspire and guide research in high-energy physics; at the same time I also show how this use of aesthetic judgement only reveals its constitutive role in physics research when paying attention to the broad range of aesthetic strategies employed for expressing scientific knowledge.

Abstract:
This study sought to investigate the way in which young children respond to and make aesthetic judgements about art works made by their peers. Grounded Theory was deemed to be an appropriate research methodology enabling a scrutiny of serendipitous experiences as well as structured investigation generated from those experiences. A total of 296 seven-year-old children were interviewed in small groups of three or four and asked to respond to visual art materials. These subjects were drawn from schools in the states of Queensland, New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. Results indicated that two factors associated with the appraisal of art works seemed to exist: a function of making aesthetic judgements and a function of gathering and interpreting information about the art works. The study found that children utilized a three-phase process in making aesthetic judgements. The first phase seemed to be pre-figured; the second and third phase seemed to occur as a outcome of prompting. This three-phase process was designated as an Aesthetic Response Model.

Abstract:
At the third section of the “Analytic of the Beautiful” of the Critique of Judgement, Kant establishes the difference between pure judgements of taste and judgements of adherent beauty. The Author contends that the definitions presented there are problematic when one attempts to reconcile them with judgements of artistic beauty. In principle, every work of art supposes certain concepts and contents that determine it as an artistic object, so it would not be possible to formulate pure judgements of taste in their regard. In order to overcome these difficulties, it becomes necessary to articulate the ideas in relation to the nature of artistic production that Kant presents in the sections on Fine Art and the Genius, where the concept of “aesthetic ideas” (understood as internal intuitions of artistic objects) is introduced. Finally, the debate on landscape and gardening in the 18th century allows us to understand how pure judgements of taste can be made from two different ways of presenting aesthetic ideas in an artistic genre.
En el tercer momento de la “Analítica de lo bello” de la Crítica de la facultad de Juzgar, Kant establece la diferencia entre juicios puros de gusto y juicios de belleza adherente. A juicio del autor, las definiciones presentadas resultan problemáticas a la hora de intentar conciliarlas con juicios de belleza artística. En principio, toda obra de arte supone conceptos y contenidos que la determinan como objeto artístico, por lo que no sería posible emitir juicios puros de gusto sobre ellos. Es necesario articular las ideas en relación a la naturaleza de la producción artística presentadas en las secciones sobre arte bello y el genio, donde se introduce el concepto de “ideas estéticas” (entendidas como intuiciones internas de los objetos artísticos), para superar aquellas dificultades. Por último, el debate sobre paisaje y jardinería en el siglo XVIII permite entender cómo se puede emitir juicios estéticos puros a partir de dos formas distintas de presentar ideas estéticas en un género artístico.

Abstract:
This thesis considers the role of aesthetic meaning-making in elementary school science learning. Children’s aesthetic experiences are traced through their use of aesthetic judgements, spontaneous metaphors and art activities. The thesis is based on four empirical studies: the first two examining children’s language use, i.e. the role of aesthetic judgements and the significance of spontaneous metaphors while learning science and the latter two dealing with how art activities mediate what elementary school children learn in science and what a variety of art activities with different purposes afford elementary school children to learn in science. The theoretical stance emanates from pragmatist theories and includes Dewey’s definition of an aesthetic experience, Wittgenstein’s later work on language-games, and socio-cultural perspectives. The analytic approach used is a practical epistemology analysis developed by Wickman and Östman. The empirical data consists of audio- and video recordings of elementary school children’s (aged 6–10 years) discussions in pairs or small groups during science lessons and photographs of children’s pictures, sculptures and poems from a total of 14 different elementary school classes. The main findings of the empirical studies show how aesthetic meaning-making is continuous with elementary school children’s scientific learning. The thesis shows how elementary school children’s aesthetic experiences are related to whole activities and are crucial for the direction that learning takes. Aesthetic experience is important in terms of how and what elementary school children learn aesthetically and normatively in science class, which has consequences for cognitive learning, the possibility of participating in science class and learning the genre of science. Moreover, it can be seen how children’s prior experiences are recurrently reconstructed and transformed through imaginative processes.

Abstract:
This dissertation turns to Plato's writings on music and the law in order to delimit the relationship between the aesthetic and juridical dimensions of political order, and in particular, to show how these dimensions are manifested in citizens and are constitutive of political judgment. The central claim of my thesis is that for Plato, justice requires an affective attachment that, in turn, requires it be coextensive with a kind of musical beauty. In order for the conditions of justice to obtain, we must not only define justice, we must also desire it as we do the beautiful; this affective requirement is fulfilled by the musical dimension of the law. The ancients understood law and music to share in the same intrinsic properties of order, establishment and restoration; the ambiguity of the word nomos, which could mean both song and law, underscores this worldview according to which ethics and aesthetics are governed by the same principles. In Plato, musical desire works within this framework: music engenders in the soul a pre-rational cognitive recognition of the intrinsic order that constitutes its beauty; musical inspiration, in turn, provides the motive force for active juridical citizenship. Surprisingly little scholarly attention has been paid to Plato's treatment of music and few scholars treat Plato as committed to the rule of law. I show that Plato's attention to both music and law throughout the dialogues underscores the political importance of an aesthetic education that is also juridical; the pedagogical function of the law is to cultivate a civic ethos in which citizens are passionately engaged with, inspired by, and take ultimate pleasure in, the principles of justice.
Dans cette dissertation je m'appuie sur les écrits de Platon sur la musique et le droit pour déterminer la relation entre les dimensions esthétique et juridique de l'ordre politique et, plus particulièrement, pour montrer comment ces dimensions se manifestent chez les citoyens et entrent dans le jugement politique. Le postulat central de ma thèse est que, pour Platon, la justice requiert un attachement affectif qui, à son tour, exige qu'elle soit coextensive à une sorte de beauté musicale. Pour que les conditions de justice soient réunies, nous devons non seulement définir la justice mais la désirer, tout comme nous désirons la beauté; la dimension musicale du droit satisfait à cette exigence affective. Pour les anciens, le droit et la musique avaient les mêmes propriétés intrinsèques d'ordre, d'établissement, et de restauration; l'ambiguïté du terme nomos, voulant dire tant chanson que droit, souligne cette vision du monde selon laquelle l'éthique et l'esthétique sont régies par les mêmes principes. Chez Platon, le désir musical agit dans ce cadre: la musique engendre dans l'âme une reconnaissance cognitive pré-rationnelle de l'ordre intrinsèque qui en constitue la beauté; l'inspiration musicale, à son tour, est le moteur de la citoyenneté juridique active. Il est étonnant de constater le peu d'attention consacré dans les travaux d'érudition au traitement de la musique chez Platon et seul un petit nombre d'auteurs voient Platon comme étant engagé à l'égard de la règle de droit. Je montre que l'attention qu'accorde Platon à la musique et à la règle de droit tout au long des dialogues souligne l'importance sur le plan politique d'une éducation à la fois esthétique et juridique; la fonction pédagogique du droit est de promouvoir un éthos civique dans lequel les principes de justice sont pour les citoyens une source d'engagement passionné, d'inspiration et, ultérieurement, de plaisir.

Abstract:
Syftet med studie var att undersöka hur kunskap inom spelgrafik kan påverka en spelares “aesthetic experience”. ”Aesthetic experience” är en term som används för att beskriva den tankeprocess en människa genomgår när hen betraktar ett verk. Detta resulterar i en ”aesthetic judgement” och en ”aesthetic emotion”. Enligt den studie Leder m.fl. har gjort kan kunskap inom modern konst resultera i en positiv ”aesthetic emotion” när observatören betraktar modern konst. Studien undersökte om kunskap om spelgrafik kunde ge ett liknande resultat vid betraktandet av en spelmiljö. Till undersökningen skapades en artefakt i form av en 3D. Informanterna fick säga hur de mådde och vad de tyckte om scenen i början och slutet av undersökningen. Resultatet pekar på att informanterna hade en mer positiv ”aesthetic judgement” efter att ha analyserat scenen, medan deras ”aesthetic emotion” sällan ändrades. I ett framtida arbete skulle modellen kunna anpassas ytterligare till spelgrafik.
