Torres, MaryAlice. "Experiencing architecture, experiencing nature." Thesis, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992. http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/70215.
Full textAbstract:
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1992.Includes bibliographical references (p. 147-149).
The idea for this thesis came from the recognition of the richness in an architectural experience and the desire to understand more about the meaning of this experience in the larger context of architecture and culture. Andalusia, Spain provides a uniqueness in that it unites, through many years of struggle, two cultures, the Spanish and the Islamic. It begins with the description of a personal architectural experience ... a journey through the Alhambra. From this description a clearer understanding of its meaning is derived. The existence of a dialog between nature and architecture becomes evident in the analysis. Light and shadow are integral in the making of this experience and layered upon these are elements which unify the experience. The integration of these aspects of the architectural experience provide a richer understanding of the definition of the architectural experience. As the experience becomes more clearly understood, its role in Islamic architecture in Spain becomes unveiled. This thesis is an attempt to challenge the personal experience of architecture and to analyze its meanings as a way to extend the understanding of Islamic architecture in Spain.

Osmonova, Kishimjan. "Experiencing Liminality." Doctoral thesis, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.18452/20033.
Full textAbstract:
Die folgende Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema Stadtmigration in Astana (Kasachstan) und befasst sich mit der Forschungsfrage wie das Alltagsleben von Zugezogenen in der neuen Hauptstadt von Kasachstan aussieht. Mein Ziel war es, die verschiedenen Facetten des Alltagslebens und die daraus folgenden Herausforderungen zu untersuchen. Astana, seit 1997 die neue Hauptstadt von Kasachstan, wird oft das "Dubai Zentralasiens" genannt. Die kasachische Regierung wirbt für Astana als einen Grundpfeiler der neuen kasachischen nationalen Identität und als ein Symbol für das moderne, westliche, reiche neue Kasachstan. Die kasachischen Eliten feiern Astana als einen Triumph von Präsident Nazarbayev. Meine Forschung beruht darauf, dass ich vielfältige Selbsterzählungen von Kasachen sammelte, die nach Astana kamen um es zu "erobern". Damit leistet die Dissertation einen Beitrag zur urbanen Ethnographie in Zentralasien.
Die Arbeit besteht aus fünf Hauptkapiteln. Kapitel eins umfasst die Einleitung und legt die theoretische und methodologische Grundlage der Arbeit fest. Der theoretische Ansatz von Setha Low „co-production of space“ (the social production and social construction of space) leitet die Forschungsfrage und der Begriff von Liminality (Turner 1967, Thomassen, 2014) wird als zentrales Grundkonzept die Analyse der Arbeit begleiten. Kapitel zwei beschreibt die Zugezogenen und definiert diese als priezzhie, die sich im Status von „in-between“ befinden. Kapitel drei beschreibt die Wohnsituation junger Zugezogener in Astana und Kapitel vier schildert das Single Leben von jungen Frauen. In den letzten Kapiteln geht es darum, welche Möglichkeiten und Chancen sich den Zugezogenen bieten, ihre Träume und Vorstellungen umzusetzen. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die Erfahrungen, welche Zugezogene in Astana machen, sehr gut als Beispiele für liminal personae und liminales Wohnen verstanden werden können.The dissertation aims to answer the research question of what it means for various groups of individuals to live in Astana on a daily basis. As the new capital, Astana attracted a large number of internal migrants from various parts of Kazakhstan, who searched for better prospects and lives. Officially, the new capital is promoted by Kazakhstan’s government as “city of the future” and regards it as President Nazarbayev’s (1991-2019) most successful project. The dissertation offers an ethnographic contribution to urban experiences of migrants in Central Asia. The dissertation is divided into five main chapters. Chapter one offers an introduction to the theme and outlines major theoretical framework and the methodology on which the research is based. I apply the theory of the co-production of space (the social production and social construction of space) outlined by Setha Low to integrate the ‘spatial’ aspect as an integral part of my research. In addition, I employ the concept of liminality (Turner, 1967, Thomassen, 2014) as the central idea to analyze the stories of my informants. Within this framework, I argue that Astana’s unique urban space supports the emergence of liminal personae, liminal housing arrangements, lifestyles and career aspirations which are mutually connected and influence each other. Accordingly, the second chapter describes the newcomers who are defined as ‘priezzhie’ and occupy an in-between status. The third chapter looks at housing and focuses on renting in shared flats. The fourth chapter is about the dating experiences of young women. The last chapter is about achieving success and career aspirations of newcomers. In conclusion, I argue that liminality explains the temporary fixation of the ambiguous, conflicting, and unstable order which has emerged for many newcomers in Astana.

Keegan, John D. "Experiencing Sustainable Architecture." Thesis, Virginia Tech, 2006. http://hdl.handle.net/10919/36015.
Full textAbstract:
The prevailing approach to sustainable design focuses on low environmental impact objectives rather than the enhancement of the connection between people and the natural environment. According to Edward O. Wilson, biophilic design attempts to place an emphasis on the human to nature relationship in the built environment under the ideology that we have an innate affinity for the natural world because of our evolutionary development. In order to properly apply biophilic design, it is necessary to study and understand what it is about specific elements in nature that creates a sense of pleasure and well being. Nature is rich with sensual features, and the expression of these biophilic traits in architectural design is really what â sustainable designâ is all about.
The purpose of this thesis is to explore Wilsonâ s theories of biophilic design through the development of an office skyscraper. The driving force behind the project is the design of the sensory oases, which are vertical extensions of the ground plane that contain features intended to stimulate the senses.Master of Architecture

Full textAbstract:
Visual art is important for humans. Most people have an interest in visiting art museums, and they spend both time and money on artworks. Appreciating visual art can have an effect on several psychological states, such as pleasure, emotions of wonder, awe, and the sublime. However, the question of what constitutes an aesthetic experience and what mechanisms that are involved in experiencing visual art, are still not fully understood. The discipline neuroaesthetics, which is a subfield of cognitive neuroscience, investigates the biology behind aesthetic experience and aesthetic appreciation. The aim of this thesis is to give an overview of the neural processes involved in experiencing visual art, and to explore how it could be related to components of emotional well-being. As such, neuroimaging studies addressing aesthetic experience and emotional processing are reviewed and discussed. This thesis found a relationship between the neural processes that operate behind a broad range of positive valanced emotions and aesthetic experience. The findings show that experiencing visual art that are aesthetically appreciated by the viewer, induces feelings of hedonic niceness or pleasant well-being and is associated with increased activity in the reward circuit. How aesthetic appreciation affects our emotional and cognitive states respectively and enhances our physiological and psychological well-being remains to be investigated. Understanding the underlying neurobiological processes involved when experiencing visual art is important due to its implications on positive health and well-being.

Full textAbstract:
Sitting in a pub in Dublin, I tried to understand the architectural qualities of my so-called watering hole. The stylish wood and spatial divisions were pleasant but were not the full reasons behind why I loved being apart of the place.
I started to think why architecture is not valued through our sensibilities? Or a better question, how can architecture be valued through our sensibilities?
Our emotions are developed through our experiences. The movement through the pub, my actions within the space, and the senses being formed from my surroundings helped my understanding of why I enjoyed the pub. There was a function, a process, and an interpretation of senses.
Our senses are developed from our immediate environments. We know ourselves in relation to other things. We know how certain things make us feel. Things have histories and we evaluate these things in relation to our own timeline. When these relationships and feelings meet we understand our surroundings through placement. Here is where we dwell in a place. Place is the building, within the building, and around the building. Place and dwelling are more cognitive than physically inhabiting within a location.
Our understanding of how we love a building starts with place.
How do you design a place?
How do things and people belong to these places?
Can a bar and brewery become one of these things on the banks of the Potomac in Old Town Alexandria? And, will it make a new and better place? Will it be loved?

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation presents a framework for describing and understanding the experience of voices in acousmatic electroacoustic music and related genres. The framework is developed with a phenomenological basis, where the author’s own listening experience has been the main object of study. One component of the framework has been to group aspects that potentially can be attended to into experiential domains based on some common feature, relationship or function. Four vocal experiential domains related to the voice are presented along with three domains not directly related to the voice. For each of these domains, a set of concepts are introduced allowing for qualification and description of features of the experience. The second component of the framework, the maximal-minimal model, is partly described through these domains. This model presents maximal and minimal voice as loosely defined poles constituting end points on a continuum on which experienced voices can be localized. Here, maximal voice, which parallels the informative and clearly articulated speaking voice dominant in the radio medium, is described as the converging fulfillment of seven premises. These premises are seen as partly interconnected conditions related to particular aspects or features of the experience of voice. At the other end of the continuum, minimal voice is defined as a boundary zone between voice and non-voice, a zone which is related to the negative fulfilment of the seven premises. A number of factors are presented that potentially can affect an evaluation of experiences according to the premises, along with musical excerpts that exemplifies different evaluation categories along the continuum. Finally, the two frameworks are applied in an evaluation and description of the author’s experience of Paul Lansky’s Six Fantasies on a Poem by Thomas Campion .

Full textAbstract:
This study elevates the importance of experience, the senses and tacit knowledge in relation to archaeology with a focus on music. With this I take up a thread drawing on theoretical aspects of Polanyi’s ‘Tacit Dimension’ and ‘Ingold’s Lines’. I review paradigms in experimental archaeology and music archaeology, and the subject of reconstruction in both. My case study is of four individuals, whose reconstruction models are connected to artefacts perceived as flutes in the archaeological record and/or notions of prehistoric flutes. Combining the way in which we learn by understanding others’ experiences through gesture and experience as data, my work examines these ideas in relation to wanting to find out about these flute-making people, and how their work is related to the canon of archaeology to which one might expect that it belongs, and if we can call this a tradition. What I found was that the praxis is complex and far reaching and stretches into various ontologies through philosophy, religion, emotionalism, intellectualism, symbolism, music, tradition, imagination, experience, sensation and identity, where interrelations of the past, present and future are very evident. I finally consider archaeology as an art which reveals parallels between archaeology itself and music. Paradigms in archaeologies in 2013 do not effectively support this praxis of flute making despite contextual experimentation showing welcoming promise for future change.

Wakkary, Ronald Lengkong. "Experiencing interaction design : a pragmatic theory." Thesis, University of Plymouth, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/10026.1/2111.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis contributes a theory for the field of interaction design based on philosophical pragmatism. The theory frames interaction design as a pragmatic experience shaped by the inquiries of designers. The contributions of the theory are that it positions the designer at the centre of a theory, describes interaction design practice to be more than a collection of methods and strategies, and provides a sound basis for generating and verifying new knowledge through design. The thesis describes and analyzes two interaction design research projects through self-reflexive accounts that illustrate the proposed theory. The projects are a tangible museum guide and a responsive environment for physical play. The thesis examines the value of understanding interaction design through pragmatism and how interaction design when viewed as experience opens the field up to a new theoretical framework. The two interaction design research projects arc described as design inquiries constituted by a design inquirer, designer intentions, and design rationales. Further descriptions of the projects show interaction design to be comprised of design actions based on judgment and interpretation. Interaction design can be assessed by the degree to which there is integrity between the design inquiry and design actions, as well as by the transferability and discursiveness of the design inquiry findings that are relevant to the wider field of interaction design and related disciplines like human-computer interaction. The implications of the theory lead to new ways of mobilizing interaction design research and interaction design education. The pragmatic theory shows capacity for clear descriptions and analysis of interaction design inquiries in ways that extract and communicate new knowledge from interaction design practice and research. The theory shows interaction design to be a distinct and independent field of inquiry that generates knowledge through design.

Lynch, Sarah. "Art therapy for people experiencing psychosis." Thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University, 2017. http://create.canterbury.ac.uk/16201/.
Full textAbstract:
Research on art therapy and psychosis has typically focused on individuals who have experienced psychotic symptoms for many years. This study used a grounded theory methodology to explore how service users experience art therapy following their first diagnosis of a psychotic disorder, and the possible mechanisms through which art therapy might be helpful for such individuals. Eight participants were interviewed, with two participants being interviewed twice. A preliminary theory was created and seven categories were constructed from the data, namely unpressured atmosphere, pleasure and engagement in art-making, expression and communication, connecting with others, changing emotional experience and experience of self, supporting recovery and continuation of art, and barriers. Participants reported that through the atmosphere of art therapy, art-making, and communication, they were able to build relationships, connect with others, experience a sense of commonality, absorption, sense of freedom and discover alternative perspectives and different understandings. Whilst this study suffered from some limitations, the results build on the current research base by suggesting possible processes and mechanisms through which art therapy is helpful, and focusing on a previously under-represented population. The findings are considered alongside existing research and theoretical perspectives. Clinical implications and recommendations for future research are also highlighted.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis will explore novel applications of phenomenology to performance art, specifically body art, a form which has undergone limited phenomenological analysis in existing scholarship. It will analyse the Being of the performance artist in the process of performative action, where the material is their own, “lived body” (Merleau-Ponty 2002), focusing on how their presence is perceived, produced and experienced through spectator, space, and artist. As a practice-as-research (PaR) PhD, this enquiry will be underpinned by a methodology that tests my proposed hypothesis (as detailed in chapter one) through qualitative data captured in phenomenological accounts (see preface). These will be documented experiences taken from my curatorial practice as the artistic director of the performance art festival Tempting Failure, and draw on my own experience as a solo artist. This method will enable access to embodied phenomenological experiences of both spectating and performing; offering comparative analysis of both the position of curator/spectator to a performance, and the body artist in action. These accounts will be underpinned by key phenomenological theories from Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1968, 2002) in view of considering embodied performing and spectating experientially. This will offer and test the application of phenomenology in studies of performance art; with potential transferability to other performance practices. Additional insight from Martin Heidegger’s theories (2009a, 2009b), will signpost areas for future investigation. This enquiry will be contextualised by addressing existing uses of phenomenological thinking in studies of performance art by Amelia Jones (1998, 2003, 2006, 2009) and to dance and digital technology by Susan Kozel (2007, 2015), among others. Case studies from my own PaR will be discussed from both my own artistic practice and a selection of artists I have curated as part of the festival Tempting Failure, whose practices are significant to this enquiry. The thesis questions the presence of a singular Being and the appearance of an essential Self in performance art. Instead, I propose that a multiplicity of selves are perceived through an investment in physical, psychological or aesthetic risk. This proposition will generate a new eidetic formula for the process of phenomenological perception.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, attention has increasingly been given to the concept of psychological ownership in the work context. Psychological ownership can be seen as the development of feelings of possessiveness towards various targets in the organisation, therefore constituting an attitude towards, for example, emotional and cognitive rudiments. Psychological ownership can be identified in terms of the three routes or categories, namely control, knowledge and investment of self. These perceptions of ownership of something, leading to feelings of psychological ownership, formed the basis of this study. The main purpose of this study was to provide an in-depth description of the experience of ownership within the workplace, especially the routes to psychological ownership, namely control; knowledge and investment of self. In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted around three themes, also called the three components of psychological ownership: control; knowledge; and investment of self. The methodology applied was a phenomenological approach. The experiences and perceptions of the middle managers of control and influence over targets or objects as well as the use of targets and objects were described as they pertain to the construct of psychological ownership. In addition knowledge of targets and objects as well as the investment of ideas, energies and time into targets and objects was described in order to arrive at a rich description of the construct for the specific sample.Dissertation (MCom)--University of Pretoria, 2011.

Full textAbstract:
Conceptions of drama education have changed considerably since the turn of the century.
Initially it had no place in the curriculum, then it became an elective subject area, and now it can be considered a vehicle for learning across subject areas. Each change brought with it new methodology, teaching strategies, and objectives. Traditionally, drama has been taught as a single subject focused on developing theatre skills with a lesser emphasis being given to social and personal development. Not all students have been able to benefit from this approach. Those who had "acting ability", were extroverted,
or were socially astute did well.
This study analyzes an approach to drama education using drama as a vehicle for learning
both within that subject and across the curriculum. The literature review examines what educational drama is, the different methods for implementation, the skills necessary
for teachers implementing drama, and the learning outcomes available through this process.
Educational drama was implemented in a drama ten and acting eleven/twelve class over a one year period. Journal entries from both students and teacher in addition to classroom
discussion provided the data necessary for the study.
It was found that self-assessment forms, summaries of the year and journals were successful
in stimulating personal development and learning, as well as an understanding of universals. At the same time students were made aware of and able to use theatre elements
which enables teachers to cover the curriculum thoroughly as it now stands.
Educational drama relies heavily on the skill and understanding of the teacher. This research
will hopefully aid in the development of teacher training in educational drama. It should also guide teachers wishing to implement this approach and be a foundation for further research in this area.Education, Faculty of

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores eighteenth-century smallpox to investigate the course, management and control of the disease by communities, families and individuals. It focusses first on the prevalence of smallpox in Oxfordshire demonstrating that smallpox mortality in the county reduced during the century because, even before inoculation was practised, the disease was clearly being controlled through community and familial responsibility; containment and isolation practices were successful in impeding the disease. Secondly, the thesis uses the combination of parish register data and family reconstitution to reconstruct three catastrophic outbreaks in the county. It ascertains a causal relationship between adult and child deaths and presents new knowledge on pathways of smallpox transmission and the nature of familial proximity. Moreover it establishes a direct relationship between changes in behavioural patterns and adult smallpox deaths. Drawing from a national body of life-writings the roles of smallpox carers are also scrutinised, revealing their high levels of stress but also their resilience thanks to integrated and reciprocal support. Spousal, parental and kinship networks were vital components of this care. Thirdly, the thesis explores how inoculation was practised in Oxfordshire from the 1760s onwards. Despite the difficulties and conflicts encountered by practitioners, it is clear that local provision was characterised by demand-led and well-organised programmes, conclusions that help to explain the high levels of local immunity. It also argues that inoculation was a likely factor in the rise in smallpox mortality in the late 1760s and early 1770s, although the absence of major outbreaks of smallpox in Oxfordshire after the 1770s and the high level of inoculation activity in the county and its regions indicate that the practice was reducing smallpox mortality by that time. The procedure was generally more accepted by the younger generation despite the sometimes irreconcilable family differences. This helps explain reduced infant mortality in the later eighteenth century since it is shown that infants were most at risk of smallpox from the home environment and thus the immunity of parents to smallpox through inoculation was a key factor in reducing overall infant mortality.

One of the most challenging tasks for many early childhood providers is how to support families who are facing tough, difficult issues like death of a parent, PTSD, abuse, and neglect. Not only do these issues impact the family’s overall functioning and well being and the quality of parents’ interactions with their young children but they also affect the relationship between the family and the early childhood providers (e.g., missed appointments and adversarial interactions). Dr. Carol Trivette will cap her yearlong webinar series sharing resources and discussing evidence-based practices that providers can implement when they are working with military families in particular, who are facing difficult situations.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this work was to investigate experiencing death and loss through school shootings from a developmental time period and theory-based perspective. This topic was chosen based on recent media coverage and controversy surrounding school shootings. This research looks at school shootings from the perspective of the Structural Functionalism Theory and applies the theory to recent situations of school shootings around the United States. From this theory, the developmental timing of loss following a school shooting was taken into account by observing the stages of development in which loss may have occurred and how each child may react to a school shooting based on their development. This research concluded that school shootings can extremely disruptive to the structure and the functioning of individuals in many roles within the school and community.

Davison, Jenkins A. "Positive mindfulness for people experiencing chronic pain." Thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University, 2018. http://create.canterbury.ac.uk/17804/.
Full textAbstract:
Objectives: This study aimed to test the impact of an internet-delivered Mindfulness-Based Flourishing program (MBF) on subjective wellbeing in a sample of adults with chronic pain. Materials and methods: Fifty-seven adults who experienced chronic pain were randomly assigned to either the MBF or to a waitlist control condition. Outcomes measures were taken via an online survey before and after the four-week intervention, and after a further four weeks. A complete case analysis approach was used, which included 30 of the original sample. Results: The MBF led to increases in subjective wellbeing and mindfulness that reached significance by follow-up, and increased health quality of life at both time points compared to controls. Effect sizes were medium to large. A reduction in pain catastrophising was also seen in the MBF group over time. Widespread pain and symptom severity did not change significantly compared to controls. Significant correlations were observed between subjective wellbeing, health quality of life and all other variables at baseline. Discussion: Despite being underpowered, the study showed promise for the MBF to be used as an intervention for improving wellbeing in chronic pain. Replication is necessary to strengthen the evidence, and future studies could investigate the mechanisms of change.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 96-99).
The goal of thesis is discussing the way historical scientific instruments are exhibited in Art or Science Museums. The astrolabe and the related mathematical theories, as developed in the Arabic and Persian tradition between X-XI Century, are taken as emblematic case for this analysis. The proposed solution is the design of museum spaces which translate the language of this instruments through the syntax of the space itself. The debate has its premise in Benjamin' concept of historical experience which is essential not only for clarifying our approach to the discipline of History of Science but it is also a pivotal point for addressing the question of how we can understand these objects. A historical scientific instrument is the by-product of the scientific knowledge of a specific time and place. It is a synthesis, a representation which concentrate the plurality/multiplicity of knowledge in the materiality of one object, it is the picture of Benjamin's Concept of History. The knowledge the astrolabe embeds is the scientific knowledge of the Arabic and Persian mathematicians of X-XI century and its construction is a tangible proof of the exactness of mathematical theorems it relies on. Hence, the language of this object has to be the language of mathematics. Its terms and primitives compose the grammar of the axiomatic method (derived from Euclid) and the proof is the syntax of this linguistic system. The design proposes a three-dimensional version of mathematical proofs of some of the theorems used for the construction and functioning of the astrolabe. It is an attempt of bringing the proof from the two-dimension of the paper to the three-dimension of the visitor in order to provide him an experience that is the spatial experience of a proof brought in his three-dimension. The architecture visualize the process of reasoning of the mathematicians by creating a space that looks like a sketch. The sketch is tool we use for visualizing our process of reasoning, hence the design has to follow the "rules" of sketching and materialize its lines.

Full textAbstract:
Experiences, narratives and architecture are seemingly connected; therefor this thesis project attempts to explore the transformation of emotions and impressions from an ‘artwork’ into architectural components and sequences of spaces. Our “artwork” and generator for this thesis has been the film The Square by Ruben Östlund. It is not a “complete/regular” suggestion on a certain site with a solved program; we have instead chosen to see this project as an investigation and a sketching process, a fundamental research. Our starting point has been based in our common interest for the perception and we wanted to explore how we as architects could bring out rooms through intuitive feelings and methods. The interest around how architecture just like anything else is interpreted different between persons and how many variations it can create, how we as architects work with creating for other people and how our intention rarely ends up being the final result. -How can the understanding and translation of experiences be made with architectural elements when only having the experience to generate from? -How can the narrative be transformed from one tale to another? -How can interpretations from two architects meet/unite in a creation for people to experience something new in? This thesis started with 10 methods where different subjects as for example: “direction, dramaturgy or spatiality” where analyzed and represented. These methods was for us a way to test what we could find in this movie to continue build something upon. These methods where made week after week and we had not set them out from the start, they came as the process begun. The building or series of rooms we now have created is what we would like to call the 12th method, also a test and part of the process of searching for translation. What we have chosen to work with in terms of film is the cutting. We have interpreted and translated the director Ruben Östlunds way of cutting into architectural means. We have assembled theses 14 rooms with: straight cuts, association cuts and juxta positioning. This project is two interpretations interwoven into one building, a monument of our so to say mental rooms generated from the same starting point/generator. The different scenes have evoked different feelings and impacts on us and have been translated into 14 rooms.Upplevelser, berättelser och arkitektur är märkbart kopplade till varandra. Därför försöker detta examensarbete att omvandla känslor och intryck från ett ”konstverk” till arkitektoniska komponenter och rumsligheter. Vårt ”konstverk” och generator i detta examensarbete har varit filmen The Square av Ruben Östlund. Vi har valt att se detta projekt som en undersökande skissprocess. Vår utgångspunkt har varit baserat i vårt gemensamma intresse för tolkning och varseblivning och vi ville undersöka hur vi som arkitekter kunde ta fram rum genom intuitiva känslor och metoder. Intresset kring hur arkitektur precis som allt annat tolkas olika mellan personer och hur många variationer det kan skapa, hur vi som arkitekter arbetar med att skapa för andra människor och hur sällan vår första intuition blir slutresultatet. - Hur kan förståelsen och översättningen av erfarenheter göras med arkitektoniska element när man endast har upplevelsen att generera från? - Hur kan ett narrativ bli transformerad från en berättelse till en annan? - Hur kan tolkningar från två arkitekter mötas rumsligt i något för andra människor att uppleva i? Detta examensarbete började med 10 metoder där olika ämnen som t.ex. riktning, dramaturgi och rumslighet analyserades och representerades. Dessa metoder var för oss ett sätt att testa vad vi kunde hitta i den valda filmen och fortsätta bygga något på. De valda metoderna, som genererades vecka efter vecka var inte förutbestämda från start utan de formades intuitivt när processen påbörjats. Den byggnad eller serie av rum som vi skapat är vad vi valt att kalla den 12:e metoden, även detta ett test och en del av processen där vi sökt efter översättning. Det vi har valt att arbeta med när det kommer till film generellt är klippningen. Vi har analyserat och omtolkat regissören Ruben Östlunds sätt att klippa till arkitektoniska medel. De scener från filmen som påverkat oss främst har vi översatt till 14 rum, där dessa rum fogats samman genom: raka klipp, associations klipp och juxtapositionering. Detta projekt är två tolkningar sammanvävda till en byggnad, ett monument av våra så kallade mentala rum, genererade från samma utgångspunkt/generator.

Fuhr, Jenny. "Experiencing rhythm : contemporary Malagasy music and identity." Thesis, University of Southampton, 2010. https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/344774/.
Full textAbstract:
My thesis is about experiences of ‘rhythm’ in ‘Contemporary Malagasy Music’ (Randrianary 2001), a field that has hardly been researched. I argue for the importance of integrating musical practices into ethnomusicological research. Despite an on-going debate on the need for a more performative approach, only very few scholars have put this aim into action (Baily 2008). Most music research so far, particularly studies on African music, are marked by prevailing and dominating Western discourses on and approaches to music with musical notation remaining the main analytical tool. This has been criticised as a constant search for difference, ignoring indigenous theories and understandings of music (Agawu 2003) and for carrying the risk of ‘essentializing music’ (Bohlman 1993). The challenge of competing discourses in my research becomes obvious with regard to ‘rhythm,’ a topic that seems to be the starting point for the musicians’ search for a collective identity for which music is a powerful tool (Stokes 1994, Frith 1996, Connell and Gibson 2003, Biddle and Knights 2007). In present day Madagascar where more and more musicians are transnationally connected (Kiwan and Meinhof 2011), but where musicians still struggle to access an international music market, questions of identity are regularly negotiated through the term and concept of ‘6/8 rhythm.’ Yet at the same time this term and concept is highly contested by the musicians as well. In Western music theory it is based on the idea of musical notation which at first glance seems to contradict the musicians’ emphasis on the Malagasy concept of oral tradition, the lova-tsofina (lova = heritage; sofina = ear) that many describe as the base for Malagasy music making. In order to tackle this challenge and go beyond the study of seemingly contradictory discourses, I argue that we need to analyse discourses and musical experiences in a constant interrelation. My thesis therefore takes on an interdisciplinary perspective, combining ethnomusicological methods, referring to the so-called ‘new fieldwork’ (Hellier-Tinoco 2003), with a discourse analytical approach to interview data. I focus on individuals and individual experiences as proposed in Rice’s ‘subject-centred ethnography’ (Rice 2003) as it is only through creating a shared space of experience that encompasses the researcher and the researched in an equal manner (Rice 2003: 173-174) that we can implement a ‘presumption of sameness’ (Agawu 2003).

Efstathiou, Vasoula. "Experiencing counselling psychology training : an IPA analysis." Thesis, University of East London, 2017. http://roar.uel.ac.uk/5891/.
Full textAbstract:
We know very little about the wider training and life experiences of counselling psychologists. The little research that has been carried out on the experiences of training programmes has tended to focus on a particular aspect, for example, the wounded healer and how early experiences of caring for others can motivate people to become professional carers; and the experiences of mandatory personal therapy, rather than looking at the wider journey that a trainee counselling psychologist travels. The current research aimed to explore the broader experiences of trainee counselling psychologists. How do trainee counselling psychologists’ prior expectations inform their experiences of training? How do trainee counselling psychologists make use of personal therapy to support their development? Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven final year trainee counselling psychologists from different United Kingdom Universities and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used to analyse the transcripts. Three superordinate themes were identified. These were named, Uncertainty at this new training journey, which explored the participants’ early experiences of the training course; From ambivalence to acceptance: Individual growth during training, which explored how the participants’ overall training journey progressed and increased their self-awareness; and Developing a professional identity, which explored the participants’ development of their identity through becoming more confident, changing as a person and learning from others. The findings suggest that the participants brought with them expectations of their training which did not often match up with reality. The findings also illustrated that the majority of participants seemed to have been in some way ‘wounded’ in the past and this led to them wanting to help others to heal. Furthermore, the results suggest that the majority of participants were initially resistant to having mandatory personal therapy, but by the end of training they found it to be an essential part of their training. Findings are discussed and translated into training recommendations that will benefit trainees apriori and during their journeys in the form of workshops, counselling and support sessions and student support so that trainees are better informed about what to expect when embarking on the training course.

Westmoreland, Amanda L. "COUPLES AND WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY: EXPERIENCING SUCCESS." UKnowledge, 2017. https://uknowledge.uky.edu/hes_etds/56.
Full textAbstract:
Bariatric surgery, also known as weight loss surgery (WLS) is an intervention for individuals who are suffering from obesity and weight-related health complications which often accompany being 100 pounds or more overweight (Smith et al., 2011). Even though bariatric surgery has been shown to be a life-saving and life-enhancing operation, efforts to seek out surgery options, qualify and prepare for the procedure, recover from surgery, and then adapt new routines to support surgery are challenging not only for the patient, but also for the people with whom the patient spends the most time—their romantic partners (Applegate & Friedman, 2008; Bylund, Benzein, & Carina, 2013; Moore & Cooper, 2016; Sarwer, Dilks, & West-Smith, 2011).
This dissertation was a means to explore relational, food, and WLS success experiences that take place within couples when at least one person has had bariatric surgery. Comparisons between life before, during, and after WLS were discussed with focused attention given to relationship dynamics and daily food routines (Bocchieri, Meana, & Fisher, 2002). The couple’s definition of WLS success and the means by which they have been successful were launching points for more in-depth conversation. Data was generated through 2 interviews per couple (n = 11) with patients who met selection criteria for the study—committed long-term relationship and of the same residence for at least the past 5 years with at least 1 person having been successful with WLS. Success was defined by the WLS patient, however they had to be at least 2 years post-WLS, the critical time period where postoperative weight regain has been shown to occur, in order to participate (Magro et al., 2008; Ogden, Avenell, & Ellis, 2011; Pories et al., 2016). A thematic analysis with multiple rounds of coding was conducted after data saturation was met and couples indicated their agreeableness with results through a short, follow-up survey which also functioned as a form of member-checking.
Overall, couples’ relationship dynamics were characterized as secure and WLS gave them another way to give support, engage in teamwork, and ultimately become closer. Patients and spouses explained that they loved each other unconditionally, no matter what the patient weighed, and this had been the reality for their entire relationship. Thus, security was the theme for relationship dynamics with support, teamwork, and closer as subthemes. Spouses expressed their desire to help the WLS patient when it came to being open to change and then making necessary modifications in habits and lifestyle. The commitment to change happened before WLS and a mind-shift happened after WLS that enabled both people to adjust their thinking, consistently evaluate their routines, and continue to change their behaviors. As a result, commit and mind-shift were the themes and subsequent changes (diet, exercise, and mindsets) were the subthemes. A secure relationship and commitment to making “better choices” assisted the patient in experiencing WLS success and this meant that their spouse experienced success, too; “it’s our success together.” The theme for WLS success was follow-through and subthemes were results, comfort, happy, and freedom. Hope was also a by-product of success and it was the grand-theme of this study.

Full textAbstract:
A cultural belief held that young children lack the ability to experience grief, based on
the assumption that children have not yet developed to understand, or to be
emotionally affected, by the concept of death. 'Disenfranchised grief', a term first
coined in 1989, refers to grief that escapes notice due to emotions not finding
expressive outlets. Disenfranchised grief afflicts young children in particular. The aim
of this study was to provide guidelines and identify support structures that teachers
can use to help a child that is experiencing grief in the Foundation Phase classroom
due to loss of a parent, sibling or grandparent.
Multiple case studies were utilised to investigate children's experiences with
disenfranchised grief within different contexts, and existing support systems for
children who suffered the loss of a loved family member. Three Grade 3 learners
experiencing grief were purposively selected from a state school to participate in
semi-structured individual interviews, drawings activities and verbal narratives. Three
themes emerged from the data: experiences of grief, emotional experience and
support. The findings indicate that children do experience grief, but need support in
giving expression to their emotions, and to process their losses. Recommendation is
made to teacher-training institutions to incorporate counselling as part of their
teacher-training curriculum.Dissertation (MEd)--University of Pretoria, 2016.

The connection between our body and mind is integral in the way we perceive and relate to the world that exists around us. Our perceptions and emotional responses to those spaces can influence and become a powerful tool for design. In turn, architecture can encourage active and mindfullness in a person's everyday life.
The architectural project is a mixed-use development consisting of a multi-family residence, hotel, coffee shop, and spa located off of 14th Street in the Columbia Heights neighborhood in Washington DC.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores women's experiences of critical illness in Jordanian intensive care units. A narrative approach was employed to access Jordanian women's stories of their critical illness and to study how these accounts changed during the period following their discharge from intensive care. The study was conducted in two hospitals in a major Jordanian city. A purposive sample of 16 women who had spent at least 48 hours in intensive care was recruited over a period of six months, with each woman taking part in between one and three interviews during the six month period. Two focus group discussions were also conducted with 13 ICU nurses drawn from the hospitals in which the women had been patients. These had the aim of encouraging discussion about the development of new supportive care strategies for critically ill women in Jordanian intensive care units. The study findings revealed three main areas: the women's experiences of suffering and pain; their experience of body care; and the impact of the ICU experiences on their lives after discharge home. Experiences of suffering were pervaded with physical, emotional, social and temporal dimensions, interlinked with pain that was often severe, overwhelming, and disturbing to their sleep. The notion of 'nafsi' suffering was employed to describe emotional and social losses, such as loss of family support, which the women experienced. The notion of 'vicarious death' was used to explain the mortal fear women experienced in witnessing the death of others. Loss of body control, the unfamiliar ICU environment, and the sudden onset of illness made it difficult for the women to make sense of their experiences. This study shows that cultural norms and religious beliefs shape the ways in which these Muslim women made sense of their bodies. An analysis of the concept of 'bodywork' is presented: the 'dependent body' captures the women's experiences of changes of their physical status, which meant that from being care providers, they became those in need of care. This involved the experience of a sense of paralysis or disablement, and a complete dependence on their family or nurses. The 'social body' describes the women's feelings and emotions toward their family members. The latter assisted in the care of the women's bodies, but distress, frustration and a sense of loneliness were experienced by the women as a result of the loss of verbal communication with their relatives. The 'cultural body' describes the effect of cultural norms and Islamic religious beliefs on the women's interpretation of their experiences, and the interpretation of male nursing care in the ICU. The 'mechanical body' describes the women's experiences of the ICU machines as extensions of their bodies, and the senses of limbo and ambiguity they encountered during their ICU stay. The recovery period raised many physical, emotional, social, and spiritual issues, which in turn impacted on the women's experiences of their everyday lives. Weakness and tiredness accompanied with difficulties in eating and sleeping made some women feel frustrated and uncertain about their health. Some felt they were a burden upon their families. The meaning of the critical illness experiences were interpreted by some women as an opportunity to value family unity and neighbours' support. For other women, the illness experiences gave them lessons which strengthened their role as mothers and helped them to think positively about their future. This study highlights the importance of considering the cultural and religious preferences among Muslim women in critical care settings. The study recommendations focus on the need to base nursing care on an understanding of the physical, emotional, social, and religious elements of suffering, by exploring the potential of a palliative care approach for nursing critically ill people.

Full textAbstract:
Today, more than 400 million individuals around the world have diabetes. This number is expected to grow to more than 600 million by 2023. However, diabetes is more than just a statistic. It is an incurable, psychologically nuanced disease, with daily battles and far-reaching complications. The lives of those afflicted undergo permanent physical and psychological changes.
Reading the stories of diabetics, or hearing them share their experience may elicit an immediate yet often fleeting sense of realization. How, then, can this brief moment of awareness be prolonged? How can a non-diabetic feel diabetes? More importantly, why should they? This research explores empathy as a tool to achieve that level of understanding. Elements found on the dining table, a place most diabetics are acutely aware of, were redesigned in an attempt to recreate certain aspects of the diabetic experience. These items no longer function in the way they were intended to, but have been transformed into tools that evoke empathy. A non-diabetic will get to experience the struggles associated with four main areas: control, or lack thereof; unpredictable dysfunctionality; a constant state of alertness; and finally, the burden of living with the disease, and the anchoring effect it has on those afflicted.
