Abstract:
The subject of the research is the features of Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason", which contribute to the methodological acquisition of aesthetic identity, they are generated through the transition to harmony of higher cognitive abilities, set the prospect of revealing how art is possible, and declare themselves in a specific experience of color and ideality of perfection and other concepts significant for aesthetics. Transcendental aesthetics, within which the first semantic images of aesthetics as a science and cultural form are formed, as a singular a priori of the history of art, as well as the structure of the coloristic discourse of criticism, reduces any objectivity of color and reveals the essential structures of its subjective experience. Kant, with one purely transcendental rhythm of reflection in the first Critique, revealed the conditions for the possibility of the aesthetic, raised the question of what makes all art possible; the transcendental undertaking itself manifested both timelessness and temporality behind their work in art.In the Critique of Pure Reason, the concept of perfection is analyzed outside of transcendental aesthetics, where a more or less definite description of perfection is given, which is directly related to the aesthetic facet of the transcendental meaning of the world. Its exceptional importance for understanding Kantian aesthetics is due to the fact that the metaphysics of perfection in late Kant allows us to rethink the critical approach to identifying the structures of aesthetic judgment in the third "Critique".

Abstract:
Abstract This article explores how two key problems of philosophical aesthetics, temporality and form, are rethought in Fred Moten's consent not to be a single being trilogy. The article proposes that Moten's work is notable for its refusal to affirm a link between aesthetic experience, or aesthesis, and the future-bound possibility of political community. This refusal distinguishes Moten's work both from the political philosophy underlying Immanuel Kant's aesthetics and from the dialectical critique of Kant found in contemporary theoretical work prioritizing formal experimentation. The article contends instead that Moten's work is shaped by a sustained attention to “informal” patterns of aesthetic experience, for which the graphic materiality of writing functions as a privileged index. The article then explores the political and temporal implications of writing's materiality in two essays from Moten's Black and Blur. To pursue this task, it draws on Walter Benjamin's understanding of philological interpolation and argues that Moten's work, particularly in its insistence on “renomination” rather than conceptual creation, can likewise be understood as philological. The article concludes, however, by showing how the idea of linguistic freedom advanced in recent philological work is complicated by Moten's recognition of a link between predication and blackness.

Abstract:
Non-turf ground-covers occupy a significant portion of the landscape, and understanding their water requirements is important when water conservationism being practiced. Six groundcover species (Baccharis pilularis `Twin Peaks', Drosanthemum hispidum, Vinca major Gazania hybrid, Potentilla tabernaemontani and Hedera helix `Needlepoint') representing a range of observed water needs were evaluated under different levels of irrigation based on percentages of real-time reference evapotranspiration.Treatments of 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of ETO were applied during 1989 while treatments of 50%, 40%, 30% and 20% of ETO were applied during 1990. Plant performance ratings in the first year indicated that 50% of ETO was the minimum treatment which resulted in acceptable plan aesthetics for all species except for Drosanthemum which performed equally well at each treatment. Significant differences in performance did occur among and within species at the different treatments. Results from 1990 will reveal which species might maintain aesthetic appearance at irrigation levels between 50% and 20% of ETO. These results will be presented and discussed in terms of their significance to species selection and total landscape irrigation management.

Full text
Abstract:
Medbh McGuckian’s main epistemologies in The Book of the Angel (2004) are aesthetic, religious, and poetic. The critical apparatus of this essay consists of the aesthetics of the sublime and beautiful from the eighteenth century (Edmund Burke and Immanuel Kant) to the present day (Jean-François Lyotard), the aesthete Walter Pater, who heralded the aesthetics of Modernism, and contemporary critics of McGuckian. The essay aims to show how these types of knowledge inform McGuckian’s use of the word ‘angel’ by arguing that the sublime effect of her choice moves along the bifurcation of scepticism and faith. The sublime is a suitable aesthetic for understanding her stance toward the transcendent and the empirical, the spiritual and the sensual, scepticism and belief. Even though she couches so much of The Book of the Angel in the language of religion, any simple interpretation of her poetry as a mere statement of either scepticism or faith becomes complicated. For McGuckian, there is always a force at work in poetry, as in nature, that is more transformative, that awaits the visionary appearance, but its power is as much in the invocation and the waiting as it is in the epiphany.

Abstract:
Drawing from and contributing to the International Relations (IR) aesthetics literature, I analyse how Anishinaabe artist Rebecca Belmore’s 2005 Venice Biennale performance-based video installation Fountain is an enactment of creative presence at an intersection of international and transnational politics. Belmore’s aesthetic method of engaging with water as a visual interface between the artist and viewer, by projecting the film of her performance onto a stream of falling water in the Canadian Pavilion exhibition, offers a method of understanding and transforming settler colonial power relations in world politics. I argue that Belmore’s artistic labour and knowledge production is an expression of Indigenous self-determination by discussing how Fountain is situated in relation with Indigenous peoples’ transnational land and waterway reclamations and cultural resurgences as well as the colonial context of the international art world dynamics of the Venice Biennale. My analysis of Belmore’s decolonial sensibility and political imagination with respect to water contributes to IR aesthetics debates by foregrounding the embodiment of knowledge production and performance artwork as a method of decolonisation.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of the study and comparison of the mental resource of two types of modern English gastronomic discourse – modern gastronomic advertising discourse and modern gastronomic advertising aesthetic discourse. The basic constituents of the conceptual systems of modern English gastronomic advertising and aesthetic discourses – discourse concepts-autochthons, as well as system connections between them, are statistically verified with the help of quantitative methods in linguistics. The reproduction of the established features of the concept systems in cognitive maps has allowed to reveal common and distinctive features in understanding gastronomic advertising discourse by various representatives of the English community – statistically average consumers and aesthete-gourmets. In particular, it was found that the frame of the conceptual systems is 49 autochthons for the MEGAD and 48 for the MEGAAD, which captures the main mental dominant for the cognitive-communicative activity of the modern English average consumer and aesthete-gourmet in the gastronomic segment of life. Thus, water and drinks, pastries, sweets and dairy products, fast food, preservation (freezing and preserving) of products, food for animals, healthy eating, taste and sensation, nutrition, brand and price of a product are significant for the average English-speaking consumer. Instead, MEGAAD has an actualized knowledge of the dish as an aesthetic creature with special ingredients, consumed in special time and temporal conditions, is prepared in a special way, creates special sensations, is useful, has a special nutritional value, dietary properties and is presented in the blog – a special section with a theme, describing the author's experiences, his feelings and emotions, first of all aesthetic pleasure.

Abstract:
In this article, Russian ballet is considered from the point of view of the peculiarities of the aesthetics of postmodernism and as one of the brightest manifestations of postmodern culture. The subject of the study is the trends of postmodernism in modern Russian ballet. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that until now, in the scientific research literature, the phenomena of modern ballet have not been subjected to scientific theoretical understanding from the point of view of trends in the aesthetics of postmodernism. It is revealed that a new stage in the development of Russian ballet is associated with the activities of S. Diaghilev's ballet troupe, characterized by a departure from traditions and the formation of a new aesthetic. The study concluded that the development of modern Russian ballet was significantly influenced by such postmodern trends as: the destructurization of the language of classical dance, the desire for syncretism of different types of art in the context of a ballet performance, the use of quotations, allusions and reminiscences that acquire conditional symbolic meaning, the desire for plastic experiments.

Abstract:
Purpose Using the theory of sensibility, the purpose of this paper is to analyze how T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land furthers our understanding of sustainable property management. Design/methodology/approach Inter-connected indicators of environmental performance disclosures (EPD) and epistemological-based aesthetic environmental accounts (EBAEA) are used to textually analyze The Waste Land’s heightening of sustainable property management. Findings The results of the study show that the level of EPD of The Waste Land was 80 per cent, while the level of The Waste Land’s EBAEA was 100 per cent. In terms of sustainable property management, the images of sustainable property management that permeate The Waste Land furthers our understanding of the apprehension of urban living, the intensification of assets and materials, the intrusiveness of city landmarks, the ephemeralness of the profit and loss, the inconstancy of water and the tension of torrid landscapes. Research limitations/implications A research implication arising from the results of the study is that the property-poetry nexus may actualize new possibilities for discerning and imagining sustainable property management. Practical implications The results of the study offer fruitful paths for understanding sustainability endeavour for planners, property managers, valuers, occupiers, accountants and developers. Social implications The Waste Land’s complex, multi-vocal, figurative, seemingly ambiguous lines render a sophisticated form of sustainable property scholarship that shapes aesthetic environmental accounts. Originality/value The study’s originality rests in its methodological approach to identify, interpret and understand sustainable property management in a modernist poem.

Abstract:
Rivers provide a range of Cultural Ecosystem Services (CES) such as aesthetic values, sense of place and inspiration, which remain insufficiently studied due to challenges associated with the assessment of their subjective and intangible attributes. However, the understanding of CES remains important as they are strongly linked to human wellbeing. This study utilizes a questionnaire-based survey to capture views from two villages along the mainstream of the Beas River in India, to identify the CES it provides, to assess how local communities appreciate their importance and how they relate to river flows. In total, 62 respondents were interviewed. Findings show that the Beas River provides several CES but among these, spiritual/religious ceremonies and rituals, aesthetic values and inspiration benefits were indicated as absolutely essential to the local communities. Results also demonstrate that people’s perception of the quality of CES is sometimes linked to river flows. It can be concluded that the Beas River is crucial in the functioning and livelihoods of local communities as it lies within the core of their cultural, religious and spiritual practices. This study reinforces the need to consider the full suite of ecosystem service categories in sustainable water resources development, planning and decision making.

Full text
Abstract:
This article argues that Lars von Trier's film Dancer in the Dark (2000) develops a provocative aesthetic of attention to affliction. The significance of this aesthetic is developed with reference to Simone Weil's understanding of affliction as deep psychic, social and physical suffering. She finds that humans habitually avoid affliction with consolations of optimistic political or religious meaning, and that deep suffering is thus rarely engaged with empathic "living attention." Through his characterization of Selma, and in his manipulations of the conventions of the musical, von Trier elicits this kind of attention, creating an important ethical opportunity for viewers to enlarge their capacity for responsiveness to deep suffering. However, von Trier's film also demonstrates Weil's point that attention to affliction is a miracle like walking on water: a near impossibility. In von Trier's otherwise mobile aesthetic, that impossibility is betrayed in his use of existing patriarchal conventions of affliction, habitually feminized as hysteria.

Abstract:
With the rise in industrial capitalism during the 20th Century, artists increasingly focused on the threat of a disappearing natural world. In the high technology era of the late 20th Century, artists whose practice is termed 'ecological' based their work around new understandings of the relationship between nature and culture, fundamentally underpinned by a shift toward evolutionary, systems-theoretical perspectives from those of conquest and exploitation. Now, at the dawn of the 21st Century, the information era has brought into intersection the discourses of information technologies, quantum physics, and biological science, awakening artists to the challenge of engaging with ecology as the primary subject of their practice. The doctoral project that is the subject of this exegesis focuses critical attention on our scientific and aesthetic understandings of water - a crucial symbolic element of global import in survival. It explores the representation of water in and through art practice that is informed by political ecological awareness and new (digital) technologies. My practice exploits the potential of recent digital technologies to create experiences that aim to encourage a more ecologically sustainable human engagement with nature through this focus on water. This exegesis describes and locates the creative work within an ongoing discourse in contemporary culture that actively seeks to re-establish and redefine the relationship between culture and nature.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the processes of perception and cognition and demonstrates their application to the creation of aesthetically and artistically significant television content. By reexamining past understandings and assumptions, the ways in which artists and media producers have manipulated the information search and processing faculties of their audiences, and thus guided the meanings they ascribed to still and moving images, are explored. To reflect the multidisciplinary nature of television aesthetics, this research is not limited to a particular academic discipline. Instead, it draws on several streams of research and scholarship (media studies, marketing, psychology, neuroscience, and the fine arts) to bridge the gap between scientific theory and artistic practice and, in turn, develop effective guidelines for the construction of audiovisual materials that fulfill all three functions of the arts: the intensification, clarification, and interpretation of experience.
Cette thèse étudie les processus de perception et de cognition et démontre leurs applications à la création de contenu télévisuel ayant une valeur artistique et esthétique. En réexaminant les connaissances et hypothèses antérieures, les façons dont les artistes et les producteurs de médias ont manipulé les facultés de traitement des informations de leurs auditoires, et donc la signification qu'ils attribuaient à des images fixes et animées, sont explorées. Pour refléter la nature multidisciplinaire de l'esthétique de la télévision, cette recherche ne se limite pas à une discipline académique particulière. Au lieu de cela, elle s'appuie sur divers courants de recherche et domaines d'érudition (études sur les médias, le marketing, la psychologie, les neurosciences, et les beaux-arts) pour combler le fossé entre la théorie scientifique et la pratique artistique, afin de formuler des recommandations visant à la création de matériel audiovisuel qui remplit les trois fonctions de l'art: l'intensification, la clarification, et l'interprétation de l'expérience.

Abstract:
This studio-based research focuses on my visual exploration of ideas about nature, specifically, urban nature. Through my practice of mark making I investigate and find inspiration in the many non-human forms of nature, seen and unseen, on the surfaces and in the margins of cities. Urban ecological thinking has enabled me to argue that cities are natural, and that ideas we continue to hold onto, of a pristine wilderness, do not necessarily help advance our appreciation of, and value for, the nature where we live. This exegesis also discusses a shift in the anti-aesthetic and aesthetic aspects of contemporary art and nature. I discover that there is a shift in the aesthetic appreciation of nature due to an awareness of different forms of nature that we now live with, and even create, like weeds, dust, and pollution. The artists I survey highlight the value of the urban. While they are ecologically aware, they are not overtly environmentalist. This research contributes to the extensive discourse on art and the environment, and about critically thinking about urban nature, and the nature humans create. Throughout, this chronological investigation sets out the changes and shifts in location and resulting studio outcomes. I begin by outlining my exploration of the traces of nature on surfaces of the city, focusing on marks of wear and effects of time, age and decay as aesthetic qualities of desire and nature. These forms of nature are referred to as subnature. I examine concepts of the human/non-human connections through the marks of nature on man-made structures, and of man-made marks on nature. My studio work explores ideas of artificiality by experimenting with surfaces, stains, and mark making, in relation those observed in the urban environment.

Abstract:

The Kingdom of Jordan is one of the world's most water poor countries suffering from physical water scarcity, a growing population, regional instability, poor water infrastructure, inefficient water sector management and high water misuse. Through conducting a content analysis of 73 USAID reports, focusing on water demand management, this paper aims to understand how water demand is managed in the Kingdom, in addition to understanding the role of international aid in transforming Jordan's water sector. A greater understanding of the crisis and actions taken to mitigate the impacts were revealed by examining specific water polices and laws, the role of government structures and water sectors, and implemented projects. It was found that Jordan has taken significant efforts to sustainably manage water resources and to address growing water demand. Reallocating water among various sectors, reducing non-revenue water, and decentralizing water provision are key priorities outlined in the Kingdom's water strategy.

Abstract:
Sustainable management of the existing built environment is becoming increasingly important in the construction industry. Consequently, more emphasis has emerged to consider issues of refurbishment and renovation. The aesthetic values of buildings are recognised as critical guiding attributes both in terms of the potential long-term aspects of sustainability and as basic reasoning for the continued maintenance and management of existing buildings. A process is required that will allow different aspects of a potential refurbishment project to be assessed objectively and weighted equally when deciding whether an existing building should be preserved, adapted or demolished. The thesis attempts to provide a useful understanding in terms of the aesthetic appreciation when considering future sustainable management of the existing built environment. Two parallel research activities were initiated to examine important aspects of human aesthetic perception regarding buildings in the built environment. The first addressed the potentially universal and culturally derived aspects of human responses in perceiving the aesthetic qualities of houses from 3 counties through the agency of colour photographs. A three language semantic differential scale was developed to be linguistically equivalent so that an inter-cultural research tool could be derived to ascertain an understanding of people’s aesthetic appreciation through the use of descriptive adjectives. The second activity was initiated to develop and test the concept of building endurance regarding the general public’s aesthetic appreciation of existing buildings. A methodological framework was developed to facilitate investigation of changes of human aesthetic response related to changes in the built environment. Cross-cultural variables and respondent’s age parameter were found to be influential in conditioning people’s aesthetic responses to photographs of houses and urban streetscapes. Few differences were observed between male and female aesthetic responses both in their descriptions of visual quality and their ideal house profile. A cross-cultural, universal profile of ideal house qualities was obtained by utilizing responses from the cross-language semantic differential scale. However differences in people’s aesthetic preference selections were observed. Additionally, respondents’ preference rankings demonstrated that the general public supports the desire of preserving the existing urban condition. Appropriate refurbishment strategies were suggested to guide decision making when assessing changes to be made to an existing building and its surrounding environment while at the same time maintaining people’s aesthetic appreciation. The research activities presented in this thesis provide a contribution to current knowledge of the general public’s aesthetic appreciation of the existing buildings and built environments which may be used to aid future sustainable development of the built environment.

Full text
Abstract:
Traditional mentor relationships were examined from the perspective of those who work in the creative arts, with a view to establishing the meaning of the relationship and its relevance to human development, psychological well-being, and self-actualisation. The study aimed to examine whether initial research findings in the area of traditional mentoring were transferable (Bennetts, 1994), and sought to produce insight into the metaphysics of the relationship. The term 'mentor' is an honorary title bestowed by a learner. Such relationships form naturally, have a defined pattern and conditions, and promote personal development for both mentor and learner. Thirty five individuals drawn from a variety of creative arts fields were interviewed using a qualitative hermeneutical and heuristic approach. Peak experience and performance are discussed and examined, together with creativity, mental health, and relationship issues. A practical and theoretical interpersonal course for adult learners and derived from initial mentor research, is described and evaluated. Continuing mentor relationships are learner-centred, and are based on trust, respect, and a component encompassing many types of love. If the power within a mentor alliance is abused by the mentor, the mentoring aspect of the relationship ends, although any prior relationship may still continue. Mentor relationships exhibit Rogers' core conditions for learning, and Rogers' conditions for creativity, and this finding both supports and enhances Bennetts' 1994 study. Mentors were shown to promote psychological well-being in childhood, adolescence and adulthood, and also support the self-image, self-esteem and self-worth of the artist. The mentor relationship is described as an art-form, as the mentor utilises an aesthetic communication approach to the artist and the artist's work. Such a description enables the metaphysics of the traditional mentor relationship to be understood in depth. The traditional mentor alliance is viewed as a valid and vital relationship for continuing education and learning.

There are nearly 1 billion people who obtain their drinking water through piped distribution networks that operate intermittently. Intermittent Water Supply (IWS) operations allow for periods of stagnation and depressurization that create conditions favorable for biofilm growth on pipe surface. Biofilms are complex microbial communities that are likely sources of opportunistic waterborne pathogens and can cause disease outbreaks. Flushing of the water pipes and re-pressurization, which occur at the start of each IWS supply cycle, cause the erosion of the biofilm and its transport into the bulk water, which can potentially contaminate the drinking water. This thesis describes the development and proof-testing of an experimental pipe testbed installed on the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) campus in Singapore.
The testbed comprises an array of 100 mm diameter PVC pipes, supplied from a water tank with flow paths controlled through a set of valves, and water samples obtained at up to 7 pipe outlets. Data are presented from an initial program of tests that compare the effects of priming for two pipe sections: 1) with continuous laminar flow (Continuous Water Supply, CWS) under pressure; and 2) IWS, where the pipe section is flushed during re-pressurization (supply period) and then allowed to drain and stagnate for the remainder of the daily cycle. The change of the water quality from both the inlet and outlet was evaluated by determining the microbial load using flow cytometry (with Live/Dead staining), together with physical and chemical water parameters measured on a time series of water samples.
The data compare the response of the CWS pipe section for steady laminar flow, with the transient response following a step-change in flow rate (turbulent conditions) with transient behavior during flushing of the IWS section. Initial filling of the IWS section cause a significant increase in total and live cell counts, confirming that erosion of biofilm can contribute to biomass transported in the bulk water. Further tests are in progress to validate and replicate these results.

Abstract:
The present work depicts the development of an experimental equipment that reveals compressible fluid dynamics, while collecting data from an incompressible flow like water in an open-channel. It consists of an extensive theoretical framework followed by a practical analysis, the aim of which was to trigger the hydraulic jump, both normal and oblique, in order to illustrate its hydro-gasdynamic analogy with a shock wave, occurring in supersonic compressible flows. The assembly, called “water table”, arises from the necessity of economical alternatives to expensive supersonic wind tunnels in the experimental study of compressible flows. Thus, a canal based on a Laval nozzle was constructed where water flow could experiment a hydraulic jump. Through its visual and experimental perception, fellow interested could more easily understand the physics and engineering behind this phenomenon. Multiple design alternatives were evaluated considering environmental, economic, functional and aesthetic factors. A low-cost implementation was critical in the design process. The measurements revealed that the geometry of the nozzle and the wedges designed as obstacles to cause obliquity were the most influential elements in the formation of a hydraulic jump in the set-up. Regarding the experimental variables, the upstream and downstream heights had the highest relevance. Therefore, their manipulation and analysis could lead to further educational investigations. This research is a step forward to support students in the understanding of compressible flow principles by providing an in-house experimental set-up. The equipment is an opportunity of carrying out lab measurements, which certainly guides to a major commitment in the field

Abstract:
This work presents a brief analysis of architectural hermeneutics based on phenomenological and aesthetic principles. Architecture is interpreted as a “text” with many conditionally distinguished “storylines” that require interpretation and understanding. The author emphasizes that the formation of meaning in architectural art is constituted due to the complex and ambiguous intentional consciousness of the reci pient.

Abstract:
The lack of equal conditions for understanding the world and finding people with disabilities in society. Currently, there is an excessive allocation of people with various disabilities, which leads to a negative psychological impact on the personality. The means of selection are understood, for example, in order to separate them from the large flow of main entrances, to typify the formation of a lifestyle and the perception of this image using typical tools (ramps, tactile paths, etc.) and to demonstrate the impossibility of forming equal psychological and physical conditions in some parts of architectural spaces.
