Full textThe aim of this thesis is to analyse the blues as a highly theatrical ceremony encompassing various art forms. The first part studies the dramatization process of the blues including the possible links with ancien rituals. A discussion of the blues as a model for playwrights in search of a genuine folk expression bearing modern aesthetics is introduced and the emergence of an artistic movement exploiting the blues as oral poetry is examined. Then, the recognition and the preservation of the blues in Chicago's african-american community is investigated with interviews of renowned blues personalities relating their own experiences. Moreover, documenting the blues through audio as well as visual media is argued as the best method. The work then examines the connection between the blues and african cultural practices. It is concluded that one finds significant retentions in the theatricality of the bluesman as veneration rituals of an african deity. It is argued that the blues performance is a festive celebration and the critical ingredient to a total experience whose consequence is largely to transmit the ancestral memory

The United States and South Africa, exemplars of "archsegregation," have been constituted within an arc of historical racialized delineations which began with the centering, and subsequent overrepresentation, of European maleness and whiteness as the sole definition of Man. Globally present and persistent, these racialized delineations have been localized and spatially embedded through the tools of urban planning. This arc of racialized otherness, ineffectively erased, continues to inform the racially differentiated geospatial, health, social, and economic outcomes in contemporary urban form and functions for Black communities. It is within this historical arc, and against these differentiated outcomes, that contemporary urban discourse and contestation between individuals and institutions are situated. This historical othering provides not just a racialized geo-historical contextualization, but also works to preclude the recognition of the some of the most vulnerable urban community members. As urbanists and advocates strive to co-create urban space and place with municipalities, meeting the needs of these residents is imperative. In order to meet these needs, their lived experiences, and voices must be fully recognized and engaged in the processes and programs of urban co-creation, including in digital spaces and forums. Critical to achieving recognition acknowledging and situating contemporary digital discourses between local municipalities, Black residents, and Black networks within this historically racialized arc is necessary. In doing so, explore if, and how, race, specifically Blackness, is enacted in municipal digital discourse, whether these enactments serve to advance or impede resident recognition and participation, and how Black users, as residents and social network curators, engage and respond to these municipal discursive enactments. This exploratory research is a geographically and digitally multi-sited incorporated comparison of Chicago, Illinois, and Johannesburg South Africa. Using Twitter and ethnographic data collected between December 1, 2019, and March 31, 2020, this research layers digital ethnographic mixed methods and qualitive mixed methods, including traditional ethnographic, digital ethnographic, grounded theory, social change and discourse analysis, and frame analysis to explore three research goals. First, explore the digital discursive practices and frames employed by municipalities to inform, communicate with, and engage Black communities, and, if and how, these frames are situated within a historically racialized arc. Second, identify the ways in which Black residents, in dual discursive engagements with local municipalities and their own social networks, interact and engage with the municipal frames centering on Blackness. Third, through ethnographic narratives, acknowledge the marginalized residents of the Central Business District of Johannesburg, South Africa as "agents of knowledge," with critical and valuable knowledge claims which arise from their lived experiences anchored within racialized place and space. In doing so, support the efforts of these residents in recentering the validity of their knowledge claims in the co-creation of urban place and space. Additionally, in situating the city within a historically racialized arc develop novel frameworks, the racialized palimpsest city and syndemic segregation, through which to explore contemporary urban interactions and engagements.

America’s landfill space is quickly depleting as the population continues to experience rapid growth; as the population grows the amount of daily waste generated increases at an alarming as well. In fact, by the year 2024, America would have exhausted all land areas dedicated to landfills. Currently, nationwide mandated regulations or standards to decrease the amount generated solid waste, construction waste, composting waste, or reducing waste at the source; do not exists. The following report researches effective practices that would make a waste management system sustainable. In order to rate the sustainability of the management system, a score sheet was created drawing from literature written. By creating a score sheet, individual waste management systems are able to determine if they are indeed sustainable and/or in need of improvement. The City of Chicago, Illinois, was chosen as the city to be measured and has proven to have a promising future as a prototype in effective sustainable waste management practices.

This thesis addresses transportation and mobility at urban medical centers, concluding that prioritizing transit access at medical centers has the potential to fundamentally transform the hospital experience by reducing congestion, increasing efficiency, improving the built environment, avoiding the deadening effect of parking garages, and improving quality of care. The thesis considers the implications of improved public transportation on medical centers, as well as the impact of hospital ridership on transit authorities via a softened peak service period, increased off-peak ridership, and the availability of origin-destination data. The institutional structure and physical design of four major medical research centers are examined for successes and flaws, as are the policies and service of the associated transit authority. Observations from these case studies are then applied to Chicago's Illinois Medical District and San Juan's Centro Medico, areas currently undergoing major capital investments in transportation infrastructure.

Full textSince its completion in 1910, the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal (CSSC) has become a pathway for invasive species (and potentially Asian carp) to reach the Great Lakes. Currently, an electric barrier is used to prevent Asian carp migration through the canal, but the need for a secondary method is necessary, especially when the electric barrier undergoes maintenance. The underwater Asian carp “cannon” (water gun) provides such a method. Analysis of the ground movement produced by an 80 in3 water gun in the CSSC was performed in order to establish any potential for damage to the either the canal or structures built along the canal. Ground movement was collected using 3-component geophones on both the land surface and in boreholes. The peak particle velocities (PPVs) were analyzed to determine if damage would be caused to structures located along the canal. Vector sum velocity ground movement along the canal wall was as high as 0.28 in/s (7.11 mm/s), which is much lower than the United States Bureau of Mines (USBM) ground vibration damage threshold of 0.75 in/s (19.1 mm/s), causing no potential for damage to structures along the canal wall. The dominant frequency of ground motion produced by the water gun is primarily above 40 Hz, so the wave energy should attenuate fairly quickly away from the canal wall, with little disturbance to structures further from the wall.

Full textThe competition for resources between increasingly commodified pets (especially dogs) and human needs has often been qualitatively studied as an aspect of gentrification. This research is a quantitative, GIS-based case study that tests the hypothesis that there are spatially correlated effects on the urban environment where populations owning highly commodified pets cluster. The research began by identifying and mapping populations favorable for possessing commodified pets in the City of Chicago and continued with mapping the distributions of pet-centric and other specific businesses and amenities. The study examined the relationships between the spatial distributions of probable commodified pet owners, various businesses, and amenities. The results indicate commodified pet ownership does affect the urban landscape and may be indicative of a diversion of resources from established public facilities and amenities to those that are dependent on pet ownership. This is a serious issue to examine, especially in times of tighter municipal budgets for publicly funded facilities.

Full textThis thesis attempts to grasp the creation of an image of a city, taking the case of
waterfront cities where the presence of water becomes a sense of place. A phenomenological
method was employed for investigating actual waterfront cities: Boston, Chicago, and
San Francisco. Although a single method has yet to be established for studying a sense of
place, phenomenology was adopted because it deals with the relationship between an
environment and the experience of that environment. This thesis found some common
qualities between these cities in their fonns. These qualities seem to have a certain
relationship to the creation of the images of these waterfront cities. This study also brought
up the question of how to evaluate personal experiences phenomenologically. They are
related to the basis of this thesis. This shows us the difficulty of practicing the
phenomenology and the profundity of studying an image of a city. At the same time, it is a
step for further study.

Art Institute of Chicago (AIC) is a world-renowned large museum for fine arts and also a private non-profit organization. AIC is one of the many private museums that use membership program to reinforce their revenue. In 2008, AIC''s annual revenue was 83,247,000 U.S. dollars, and proceeds from membership are 4,375,000 dollars. Membership contributed 5.26% of the annual revenue, so it''s an important part of AIC''s operation. This research set the inquiry upon the Membership Program at AIC, in order to understand the marketing and operational aspects of a membership program in a large private institute for the arts in the United States. First, the institutional structure and operations, current and historical, of the program will be reviewed. Second, a questionnaire will be implemented in the AIC Member Lounge to understand members'' perceptions toward this exclusive place for them, and this place''s benefits on the membership program, including its scope and effectiveness. This thesis includes the following parts: (1) Introduction includes research motives, problematic, structure, objectives, tools for analysis, limits, and literature review. (2) The background and history of AIC. (3) Introduction to AIC Membership Program and Member''s Lounge. (4) Analyses of questionnaire with contingency tables. (5) Conclusions and suggestions, based upon the contingency table analysis, will include analytical conclusions and suggestions for future research and practices. This research learns that, the AIC Member''s Lounge has positive effects for encouraging members to maintain their memberships, and it''s somewhat critical to middle age, younger and male members. The relaxation space and free beverage are the most favored services in the lounge. Last, this research discovers that while the AIC membership program uses the methods of market segmentation in its several services for members, these services can support all the others to form a balanced total, resulting in a strategic integration of the membership program. In the United States, it is the people''s need and public trust toward museums the basic reason why the museums founded by private entities or endowed institutions can flourish. This research indicates that, beyond the economic factors based on benefits, the two most important factors to encourage people to join or maintain membership are: the fondness for arts and the willingness to support AIC. Therefore, the success of a membership program is a way to examine how trustworthy a museum is to the public. It''s because membership program''s exercise reflects whether the museum deserves the support from the public, and whether appropriate management exists in it.
