Abstract:
Mori dream spaces form a large example class of algebraic varieties, comprising the well-known toric varieties. We provide a first software package for the explicit treatment of Mori dream spaces and demonstrate its use by presenting basic sample computations. The software package is accompanied by a Cox ring database which delivers defining data for Cox rings and Mori dream spaces in a suitable format. As an application of the package, we determine the common Cox ring for the symplectic resolutions of a certain quotient singularity investigated by Bellamy–Schedler and Donten-Bury–Wiśniewski.

Abstract:
Mori Dream Spaces and their Cox rings have been the subject of a great deal of interest since their introduction by Hu–Keel over a decade ago. From the geometric side, these varieties enjoy the property that all operations of the Mori programme can be carried out by variation of GIT quotient, while from the algebraic side, obtaining an explicit presentation of the Cox ring is an interesting problem in itself. Examples include Q-factorial projective toric varieties, spherical varieties and log Fano varieties of arbitrary dimension. In this thesis we use the representation theory of quivers to study multigraded linear series on Mori Dream Spaces. Our main results construct Mori Dream Spaces as fine moduli spaces of ϑ-stable representations of bound quivers for a special stability condition ϑ, thereby extending results of Craw–Smith for projective toric varieties.

Abstract:
Cette étude vise à développer la notion de figuration hors des jalons établis par les sciences de l’image et du langage, sans remettre en question les domaines spécifiques de l’iconologie et de la sémiologie. Elle s’appuie pour cela sur deux champs d’investigation principaux : l’expérience de la peinture, poïétique et esthétique, et la philosophie. Il s’agit plus précisément d’amener l’expérience intime du faire, du voir et du faire-voir, à l’éclaircissement d’une certaine conscience figurale : que signifie « représenter » pour la conscience créatrice ? Quels processus psycho-sensoriels sont en jeu dans l’acte de figurer ? Comment définir la liberté d’action du peintre face, d’un côté, à sa part d’inconscience, et, de l’autre, au déterminisme de l’imitation ?Il ne s’agit donc pas d’étudier la peinture figurative, par opposition à la peinture abstraite, gestuelle, informelle…, mais la tendance intime qui, dans n’importe quel tableau, donne à voir des configurations. Une figure peut être fidèle aux apparences, tout juste allusive ou totalement détachée du monde visible (comme un cercle parfait ou une simple tache de peinture), elle détient toujours une puissance d’évocation, ainsi qu’une capacité à se conglomérer avec d’autres et à inspirer des rapports logiques. Figurer ne signifie pas clicher le monde visible, mais, d’une manière qui reste encore à définir, laisser émerger des schèmes animés, favoriser le surgissement de motifs imaginaires ; entités primitives, identitaires, fondatrices de notre mode d'habitation du monde
This study is aimed to develop the notion of representation beyond the reference points established by the image and the language sciences, without challenging the specific fields of iconography and semiology. It is based on two main domains of investigation : painting experiment, both poïetic and esthetic, and philosophy. More precisely, it consists in bringing the intimate consciousness of making, seeing and making someone see to the clarification of a kind of figurative awareness : what does « representing » mean to the creative consciousness ? Which psycho-sensorial processes are in play in the action of representing (i-e painting recognizable shapes) ? How could we define the painter’s freedom of action in relation to, on the one hand, his/her unconsciousness and, on the other hand, the determinism of imitation ?Thus, this work is not about studying representational painting, as opposed to abstract, informal or action painting, but the intimate tendency which, in any painting, shows outlines. A figure may be true to life, hardly allusive or totally unconnected to the visible world (like a perfect circle or just a paint spot), it always has an evocation power, as well as an ability of mixing with other figures and inspiring logical links. Representing does not mean taking a picture of the visible world but in a way that still has to be defined, it means enabling alive schemes to appear, encouraging the springing up of imaginary designs, primitive, identifying, founding entities of the way we live in this world

Abstract:
The Faerie Queene frequently meditates on how representing space—imagistically or narratively—involves distortion. This chapter proposes that allegory as an expressive mode allows the poem to interrogate the workings of mapping and poetry in particular, and of representation more broadly. Noting that some of the poem’s most vexing encounters with allegory’s limits come at moments in which the representation of space is at stake, the chapter considers several moments in the poem (e.g. Book V’s Giant with the Scales) when cartographic anxiety reveals a tension between the map’s and poem’s literary and literal ambitions. If mapping depends on an enabling metaphoricity that conceals its artifice, then allegory, which trumpets its metaphoricity to problematize its artifice, emerges as the poetic mode best able to supply an alternative model for how the literal and the literary interact in the making of poetry.

Full text
Abstract:
Dread Trident examines the rise of imaginary worlds in tabletop role-playing games (TRPGs), such as Dungeons and Dragons. With the combination of analog and digital mechanisms, from traditional books to the internet, new ways of engaging the fantastic have become increasingly realized in recent years, and this book seeks an understanding of this phenomenon within the discourses of trans- and posthumanism, as well as within a gameist mode. The book explores a number of case studies of foundational TRPGs. Dungeons and Dragons provides an illustration of pulp-driven fantasy, particularly in the way it harmonizes its many campaign settings into a functional multiverse. It also acts as a supreme example of depth within its archive of official and unofficial published material, stretching back four decades. Warhammer 40k and the Worlds of Darkness present an interesting dialogue between Gothic and science-fantasy elements. The Mythos of HP Lovecraft also features prominently in the book as an example of a realized world that spans the literary and gameist modes. Realized fantasy worlds are becoming ever more popular as a way of experiencing a touch of the magical within modern life. Following Northrop Frye’s definition of irony, Dread Trident theorizes an ironic understanding of this process and in particular of its embodied forms.

Full text
Abstract:
Deferred Dreams, Defiant Struggles interrogates Blackness and illustrates how it has been used as a basis to oppress, dismiss and exclude Blacks from societies and institutions in Europe, North America and South America. Employing uncharted analytical categories that tackle intriguing themes about borderless non-racial African ancestry, “traveling” identities and post-blackness, the essays provide new lenses for viewing the “Black” struggle worldwide. This approach directs the contributors’ focus to understudied locations and protagonists. In the volume, Charleston, South Carolina is more prominent than Little Rock Arkansas in the struggle to desegregate schools; Chicago occupies the space usually reserved for Atlanta or other southern city “bulwarks” of the Civil Rights Movement; diverse Africans in France and Afro-descended Chileans illustrate the many facets of negotiating belonging, long articulated by examples from the Greensboro Woolworth counter sit-in or the Montgomery Bus Boycott; unknown men in the British empire, who inverted dying confessions meant to vilify their blackness, demonstrate new dimensions in the story about race and religion, often told by examples of fiery clergy of the Black Church; and the theatres and studios of dramatists and visual artists replace the Mall in Washington DC as the stage for the performance of identities and activism.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the composer John Cage's interest in Muzak and his concept of “Muzak-plus”. Cage's long-lasting interest in muzak was not because he liked Muzak, or that he was sympathetic to its alleged power. On the contrary, Cage often stated his distaste and, to a certain extent, his fear of Muzak. But he perceived his aversion for muzak as something to be somehow overcome. Cage first alluded to the concept of Muzak-plus in a piece he wrote in 1962 for the collective publication Module, Proportion, Symmetry, Rhythm. Muzak-plus is a situation where being creative never seemed so natural and unnoticeable an act (fulfilled simply while going through the room). In itself, the principle of listeners–performers–composers activating the space by simply traversing it recalls Cage's remark that actually “no one means to circulate his blood.” With Muzak-plus, one could barely dream of a more integrated form of art as life.

Full text
Abstract:
The second afterword to the book by Kamran Asdar Ali returns us to the city, and to the lives of Karachi’s working women and working classes. He draws on women’s poems, diaries, and memoirs to capture some more ephemeral qualities of everyday living and dying. These contrast with the violent suppression of an underclass of trade unionists and labor activists by a coalition of the state, military courts and industrialists, since the fifties. Given the long, progressive erosion of peace in Karachi how, he asks, might we imagine a therapeutic process of social, economic and cultural healing? Through an image of citizens “at work” creating citywide networks and connections, we are offered finally some possibilities of dreaming. Namely, through increased understandings, not of conflict, but also of each other’s intimate everyday lives, the dream emerges of a new political space or public where even intractable disagreements can be managed through gestures of kindness, compromise, and fresh vocabularies of how to carry on and get by.

Full text
Abstract:
As students of the Civil War have long known, emancipation was not merely a product of Lincoln's proclamation or of Confederate defeat in April 1865. It was a process that required more than legal or military action. With enslaved people fully engaged as actors, emancipation necessitated a fundamental reordering of a way of life whose implications stretched well beyond the former slave states. Slavery did not die quietly or quickly, nor did freedom fulfill every dream of the enslaved or their allies. The process unfolded unevenly. In this sweeping reappraisal of slavery's end during the Civil War era, Joseph P. Reidy employs the lenses of time, space, and individuals' sense of personal and social belonging to understand how participants and witnesses coped with drastic change, its erratic pace, and its unforeseeable consequences. Emancipation disrupted everyday habits, causing sensations of disorientation that sometimes intensified the experience of reality and sometimes muddled it. While these illusions of emancipation often mixed disappointment with hope, through periods of even intense frustration they sustained the promise that the struggle for freedom would result in victory.

Full text
Abstract:
Between 1991 and 2010, Dhaka’s population more than doubled to 15 million. Simultaneously, the city’s contribution to the national economy almost trebled. Clearly, population growth was accompanied by an unmistakable trend of economic growth, and a significant decline in urban poverty and income inequality. On the other hand, Dhaka’s high population density exacerbated serious environmental challenges, and it was soon ranked as one of the world’s least livable cities. In the context of these contradictory signals of rapid urbanization, Dhaka’s Changing Landscape sets to answer three most intriguing questions: Are the poorer segments of urban population, which migrate with dreams for better lives, benefitting from positive economic trends? Are these benefits sustainable? Are these benefits creating scope for this group to have a stake in the city’s growing prosperity? By studying 600 households and applying comparative analysis over a span of 20 years, the authors examine demographic and economic trends to understand the patterns, scale, and complexity of urban poverty, income inequality, and rural–urban migration. Going beyond the space and poverty debate, they enlighten the readers about the quality of life questions, sustainability matters, and gender and generational roles and relations necessary to understand qualitative transformation and migrants’ prospects for a better future.

Abstract:
AbstractUnder the inspiring and aspiring title: Paving the way for pushing and pursuing a “one for all, all for one” triple transition: social, green, and digital: The Three MuskEUteers, a group of remarkable co-authors and contributors have developed radically new forward-looking visions, principles, approaches, and action recommendations for an attuned indivisible social, green, and digital transition.The triple transition is aimed at helping humanity gather around a life-sustaining purpose, as opposed to life-destroying one in terms of wars of all kinds (military, economic, political, etc.); nature decay and wreckage (carbon footprint, plastic pollution, soil poisoning, etc.); human alienation (favelas, homeless persons, refugee camps, child malnutrition, poverty, exclusion of any kind); and geographic imbalances with empty rural spaces and overcrowded megacities (creating difficult access of rural and/or remote population to care, health, and other essential services; difficulty of urban population to contact with natural environments).The work highlights the urgent need to speed up a third social transition (Within this social transition dimension we understand the socio-cultural scope as any social shift implies a cultural transition and vice versa, with its very deep implications.), in addition to the green and digital transitions more widely recognised by the international community. Innovation, or a European industry-led twin transition aiming for climate neutrality and digital leadership, cannot be supported without a firm, responsive, responsible social and environmental engagement. Neither is it possible to tackle a JUST triple transition which is not firmly rooted in worthwhile human development, underpinned by the Sustainable Development Goals. And none of these transitions can go separately and/or isolated; they all need to intertwine around the notion of (more, firmer, and determined) just transition.European society is presented as a huge “co-laboratory” for this “all for one, one for all” boundaryless triple transition to respond to the urgent radical changes demanded by humanity and by the planet. The chapter proposes a radically new vision to pursue a non-explored transformative way to ideate, design, develop, and deliver science, innovation, and collaboration through experimentation and learning, and throughout multi-stakeholder engagement from the n-helix spectrum. It proposes systemic innovation tactics for the “how” (green, techno-digital), for the strategic “what” (green, social), for the purposeful “why” (green, social), and for the operational “how best” (green, social, techno-digital) within the governing principles of eco-centric society. This encompasses: Courageous goal-aligned alternatives, as a shift to new (yet ancient) principles of eco-centric rather than ego-centric behaviour. The adoption of a “complex system mind-set” to build up dynamic, context-sensitive, and holistic approaches to co-design mission and purpose-driven actions, outcomes, outputs, and no-harm impacts. The ignition of the transformative capacity of all forms of collaboration (international, interdisciplinary, intersectoral, intergenerational, inter-institutional, inter-genders) vs hierarchy as alternative governance and distribution models to overcome the unjust and unsustainable biased status quo within evolving, adaptable, flexible, and transformational n-helix ecosystems. The Three MuskEUteers, deeply anchored in European values (human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, rule of law, and human rights), will pave the way and drive humanity towards the achievement of the ambitious, but achievable, targets of the United Nations 2030 Global Agenda, the Sustainable Development Goals.Europe can be the initiator of co-laboratory experiments where social change drives the “all for one, one for all” dream into transforming this three-prong transition into possible real good ecosystems working.

Abstract:
The article deals with the considerations and category of space, which are connected with the theme of dream in the story Cloakroom Attendant by Jelena Dolgopiat. There is a classic contrast between the city (alien, dangerous and unfit for life) and the village, ensuring peace and security, in this work. The protagonist of the story leads a lonely, half-sleepy existence, lives as if she is out of time. When unexpectedly she becomes the heiress of a cloakroom attendant, other people’s dreams enter her life and open up new dimensions of existence for her. The line between waking and dreaming becomes blurred. The events in the protagonist’s life turn out to be part of dreams of the people she does not know. The past, present and future intertwine into one substance, which is characteristic of a dream and is reflected in the structure of the piece. In the story both the space and dreams are “mapped”, which is to tame them and subordinate them to man. However, while the space put on the map becomes “familiar” and friendly to the protagonist, the issue of dreams is more complicated and it is not known whose dreams are in each of the presented events.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter analyses the relation between Warlpiri myth and ritual from the perspective of the cosmological and ritual differentiation of male and female. It is a challenging repositioning of gender in relation to religion and spirituality based on an Aboriginal cosmologic which values a mythical androgyny of some hybrid totemic human and non human ancestors of current humans and their totemic species, animals, plants, or phenomena like rain or fire. To reactualise such a virtual androgyny in themselves, both men and women perform ceremonies reenacting through dances, songs and painted bodies the totemic travels but in ritual spaces restricted to one gender. In this ritual separation, they are both involved in land tenure and dream revelation of new designs to paint, sing or dance as a reactualisation of a virtual collective and earth memory. Women can dream for men and more rarely men dream for women. First published in French in 1991.

This chapter details the author's dream about the cohomology of unramified coverings of Drinfel'd upper half-spaces, which brought him an insight that he could not quite recover but was certain that he should not let slip away. He remained at the edge of wakefulness for several minutes, until the insight solidified to the point of being expressible in words—or, more accurately, a combination of words and images to which he could associate mathematical content. Over the next few weeks his ideas grew clearer as he reread Henri Carayol's article and discussed the problem with colleagues in Paris and Orsay; by December 29 the insight that came to him in his dream had taken the form of a research program that he described in detail in a letter to Michael Rapoport.

Abstract:
The European Union was and is a dream for many—for those who looked forward to and yearned for peace, democracy or prosperity. Remember, we have four candidate countries. Even in the UK, at least half the population is convinced European, despite everything. For many, the Europe of their dreams has been replaced by that of necessity. But we cannot cope with the great problems of our time without the EU. The nation-states cannot cope separately with the Chinese and American challenges. Indeed, two-thirds of EU27 citizens consider membership of the Union to be a good thing for their country. Why not turn this awareness into ‘more Europe’? Is it a matter of leadership? Or are our national societies in crisis, not only in Europe but throughout the West? There is a lot of mistrust towards established institutions and overarching ideas. Europe is one of them. Modern man fears ‘space’ and cherishes the ‘place’. All this translates electorally into a lot of fragmentation and volatility, which makes it more difficult for leaders to take risks. And yet we must continue to work towards an ‘ever closer Union’.

Abstract:
From big to small, from fast to slow, we traveled through scales— through magnifications of billions in space and billions of billions in time. We looked at how the traditional scalebound approach singles out specific phenomena: structures at specific spatial scales with specific lifetimes. The approach attempts to understand each in a (scale) reductionist and (usually) deterministic manner. Yet it fails miserably to describe more than tiny portions of the actual variability, giving— at best— some qualitative insights. Viewing the big picture with the help of modern data, we saw that, quantitatively, the scalebound approach underestimates the variability by a factor of a million billion (Fig. 2.3A). The alternative is the scaling approach, which attempts to understand and model the atmosphere over wide ranges of scale. This approach is based on space– time scale symmetry principles. It describes statistically the synergy of nonlinear processes that act collectively over wide ranges of scale. To apply the idea in space, we needed to generalize the notion of scale itself (Chapter 3)— notably, to be able to account for the stratification caused by gravity. The appropriate notion of scale is one that emerges as a consequence of strong nonlinear dynamics, rather than being imposed a priori from without. Applying scaling in time, we found that the familiar weather– climate dichotomy was missing a key middle regime: from ten days to twenty years. It is a weather, macroweather, climate trichotomy. When it comes to real atmospheric modeling, scientists have long realized the limits of the scalebound approach. When they “really need to know,” they defer to NWP or GCMs, the embodiment of Richardson’s dream of “weather prediction by numerical process.” This is fortunate, because the NWPs and GCMs respect space– time scaling symmetries; without them, they would be hopelessly unrealistic. At least when used for their original purpose— weather prediction up to the ten- day deterministic predictability limit— respecting scaling allows them to be reasonably accurate.

Abstract:
While acknowledging that the American dream does have a bright side, the introduction explains why we can learn more by examining the portrayal of its dark side in popular culture. Works like the Godfather films and Breaking Bad reveal the inner contradictions and tragic tensions in the American dream. The introduction offers an overview of the book and sketches the ways the chapters build on each other, developing a set of common themes, such as self-invention and imposture. All the works point to the western frontier as the mythical space for American self-fulfillment. The chapter discusses the Western as the archetypal American genre and traces the ways it migrates to other genres, such as science fiction and the gangster story. All these genres offer alternatives to the everyday middle-class world that popular culture normally mirrors, and thereby they raise questions about a narrowly middle-class conception of the American dream.

Abstract:
This chapter explores links, in terms of imagery, symbolism, theme, and form, that exist between a range of rural-set texts spanning the period from the fin de siècle to the First World War. It argues that the evolution of the British rural Gothic in this period reveals sympathies between canonically modernist fiction (D.H. Lawrence and May Sinclair, for example) and more formally conventional texts (such as those of M.R. James and Walter de la Mare). This suggests a broader understanding of what constitutes modernist experimentation. The chapter also traces the influence of metropolitan and industrial modernity upon the rural Gothic imaginary, and considers the dialectical relation between these two cultural and geographical spaces. It ultimately argues that in the Gothic fiction and ghost stories of the period, we see rural Britain represented as a site of uncanny returns, in which repressed traumas, anxieties and violence re-emerge.

Abstract:
Digital nomads have come to Bali to work. Chapter 4 unpacks nomads’ sources of earned income through entrepreneurship, freelancing, and full-time employment. It also details their occupations, which tend to cluster in marketing, e-commerce, coaching, and technology. It then explains the role of coworking spaces in the digital nomad ecosystem and the processes through which digital nomads build and sustain their work-centric community. Many of the more successful nomads continue to work side-by-side with those who are just starting out in this lifestyle. The informal social environment of coworking is supplemented by formal skill share events on topics like quitting one’s job, blogging, coding, podcasting, social media, outsourcing, team-building, partnering, getting investors, and finance that give nascent entrepreneurs opportunities to learn from the community. Bali is a place where people easily find cheerleaders, advisors, and helpers as they pursue their professional dreams.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses Deacon Brodie (1880), one of three plays collaboratively composed with his friend W.E. Henley, along with Stevenson’s short story “The Body Snatcher” and his essay “A Chapter on Dreams.” Deacon Brodie is an early treatment of the themes more famously developed in the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886). Thus, Jekyll and Hyde, which owes its origins to the literal dual authorship, becomes a reflection on the fragmentation of the single author, as well as a reflection on the collaborative space of the theater.

Abstract:
This paper attempts to provide a model for meaning by reading the overlay as potential in a banal – if not bizarre – contemporary project: a Chinese theme park in Orlando Florida. Proposed to prospective visitors as “Authentic” it is in fact an extraordinary collision of temporally and culturally distant spatial concepts and building practices. This paper uses an experimental ‘witnessing7 of the park to lay out a series of spacio-conceptual models for travel as power. These range from looking at the theme park as a Chinese propaganda tool, through Bachelard’s concepts of miniaturization and collection, empirical (Chinese) versus theoretical (American) standards for life safety, spatial strategies of 1 lth century Dream Journey Scrolls, and Feng Shui (the art of Placement) The changing nature of architectural practice instigates a movement from building representations of singular architectural ideas to the constructions of more complex ‘programmatic fields.’ We need neither despise nor formally caricature the polyglot programmatic shifts and collisions of our time. This paper takes a hopeful stance, maintaining that the overlay of resonant paradigms provides an opportunity not realized, perhaps, in the existing construction.

Abstract:
In a pandemic, children’s participation is even more important than before. This paper presents the first stage of an exploratory study for my PhD research in Pedagogy beginning in January 2021 in Milan. The participants are 19 pupils of class 4B (primary school), their parents and the teachers who joined energies to reproject a square, in order to transform it into a welcoming space for the entire community. In Italy, public speeches did not mention children who could not finally use public spaces for months as they were identified as the “plague spreaders”. The project revisits this perspective by considering children as potential actors of the transformation. Only if adults set the conditions for a change, children, their needs and their imagination could become agents for that change and centre of the community. The project name is Piazziamoci (Let’s place ourselves here) to signify the conscious act of taking a place together. After a theoretical framework of the study within Student Voice, I describe the generative circumstances, the context and the first steps of the project. The children explored the square, interviewed the inhabitants, shared information and dreams with their classmates coming up with proposals to present to City Council. This first phase aimed to set the basis of my investigation on the participants self-awareness as people and members of the community; it also focuses on the perception of the square as a common good. To this purpose, this work introduces concepts as the capacity to aspire (Appadurai, 2004), imagination and creativity (Vygotsky, 1930/2004), interdependence (Butler, 2020), and, therefore, a political and educational interpretation of the project.

Abstract:
It is a fact that the urban sprawl, known as the process of gradual spread out of urbanization has become a worldwide phenomenon. The growing consumption of land, as a result of the extension of highway networks, open up vast space of territory, which seems to have become an unstoppable cancer, and affects virtually all the contemporary metropolis. The expansion of the cities had its origin in the model of suburban life, which began with the generalized use of the automobile. A lifestyle based on the "american dream‖, one single family-home, one (or more) car (s)." But it has been since late 70’s of the last century, when it has had a more dramatic development, as a consequence of the crisis of metropolitan areas linked to what, it is called Post-Fordism economy and some authors have characterized as counter-urbanization (Berry) desurbanization (Berg), edge-cities (Garreau) metapolis (Asher) or diffuse city (Indovina). Despite the diversity of urban development, the increasing consumption of land, the excessive use of land as a scarce resource, it is a constant in the urbanization process in the early twenty-first century. The object of our contribution is to make an overwiew about urban sprawl in USA, Mexico and Spain. The use of technologies related to satellite imagery (remote sensing) allow the characterization of the phenomenon of consumption, pathological or not, of land. And this analysis suggests some hypothesis about the plurality of the contemporary urbanization processes. Roughly two models stand out: On one hand, urban development based on low densities, where the unsustainable consumption of land is presented as a paradigm of economic development and, on the other hand, an urban development with a compact city model, where recycling land, and not just increasing the consumption of land, is one of the key objectives of urban policies. The work presented here, suggests that in the second model seems to appear a change in the paradigm towards a more efficient and sustainable use of the territory.
