Abstract:
Working With Space: An opportunity to be considerate and reflective as a human being As a visual artist, my work is primarily focused on building site-specific installation works for museums and galleries. This visual site work affords me the opportunity to research, understand, and underline the dynamics of place, highlighting the totality of the function of sculptural elements to each other and within site. Formally and structurally, my interest is in the details, quality of connections, quality of structure, and an understanding of all physical parts to a whole. This work is fueled and influenced by my research of system dynamics, primarily a holistic investigation of ecosystem function and observations of nature with supportive comparative study in architectural theory, urban development, and the psychology of space as it supports this inquiry and excitement for the dynamism of parts to the whole. Within my research, my main interest has been looking at the quality of thriving function, not dysfunction, found in nature, which observes an awareness of its environment and responds accordingly. As a point of reference for art making/installation building, I have been utilizing two themes from distinctive research: structural/physical qualities found in species connections and functional growth relationships in nature. This has included studying, most recently, growth dynamics from plant observation of species in groups and species next to species. How plants negotiate around boundaries and root length and dynamics, have been central to my interest in recent research. Ultimately, this research resonates with my observations on human survival and the plight of human relationships, and fuels the visual large-scale installation pieces. In my artwork, not only does content stem from holistic sustainability interests, but also material and processes are involved in making choices about being considerate and being a part of a global system, some of which are distinctive in the field. One of these methods utilizes paperclay, a construction material of a blended mix of clay and paper that offers unique lightweight and large-scale installation opportunity that can be fired or non-fired. I use either clay found close to the site or a dry EPK. The paper (100% cellulose) is either foraged from place in its natural state (grass or stalks) and boiled, or recycled from old clothes (100% natural fibers), both are beaten to a pulp in a papermaker’s beater called a Hollander beater. The paperclay material, when blended at 70/30 ratio, is strong and offers construction diversity; it can be dipped, sprayed, cast, modeled, or stuccoed. It can also be non-fired and fixed with a white glue or Portland cement to be presented at a variety of hardness densities. Or, of course, fired out, losing the paper percent in weight. Building on site with this mud mixture gives flexibility by allowing the installations to be built, making choices as I go, responding to the space and the sculptural forms responding to each other. Ultimately, the installation also accommodates the viewer. It provides a physical passage to move through the piece to consider the relationships between the forms, and the relationship of the forms to the space, offering the consideration of the sensitivities of all integral parts being of value to the potential whole.

Abstract:
This study examined the effectiveness of a logbook and paperclip technique on awareness of the use and content of negative self-talk as well as the motivation to change negative self-talk. Participants (n = 73) completed a questionnaire measuring these variables, and were assigned to either a control, paperclip or logbook group. Participants performed three typical training sessions over a three-week period. The logbook group completed a self-talk logbook after each session whereas the paperclip group carried out a paperclip exercise during each session. Upon completion of the training sessions, the questionnaire was readministered. ANCOVAs revealed no significant differences between the groups for motivation to change and awareness of the content of negative self-talk. However, the logbook group had significantly greater awareness of their use of negative self-talk compared with the control group. A qualitative analysis of the logbook group’s use of negative self-talk provided insights into the situations that prompted negative self-talk, the content of the self-talk, and also the consequences of using negative self-talk. Collectively, the findings offer some support for the use of the logbook technique in the applied setting.

Abstract:
This Ph.D based on existing published and creative work brings together contribution to knowledge by Rosette Ford Gault. Within the book Paperclay Art and Practice (2013) is a core framework of innovation that Gault developed for her ceramic art seen in her first handbook in 1993. Porous/vitreous "paperclay" with her pulp/clay ratio allows wet to dry patch of cracks and multiple other advantages now in continuous use. Of 18 novel preparation methods and 75 ceramic practices, ways to create an interior fibre structure of cellulose fibre and maximize the nano scale relationship between clay body particles and cellulose fibre were explained. In collaboration with Dr. David Kingery, the first micrographs with a new profile of displacement and modulus of rupture data for her wet/dry capable pulp/clay ratio paper clays were published in 1993. Gault contributed US Patent 5,726,111, trademarked PClay®/P'Slip® products since 1996, a portfolio of artworks, (150) exhibitions, (5) books/dvd, (38) articles, (2) websites and published research vision for water filtration, simulated ceramic bone, and industrial waste reclaim. Development, background and research methodology of these contributions are traced. Teaching included 77 demonstrations in 15 countries. Work undertaken by Gault has been referenced in at least 218 published pieces of research and cultural contribution, (6) Ph.D, and (15) M.F.A.lM.A. degrees. Artists from 39 countries contributed to the book. Future research areas stemming from this thesis include education, 3D printing, collaboration with materials science, porous clay filtration, medicine, and sustainable design.

Abstract:
Paperclay is a composite made by the addition of paper pulp to any type of clay. This thesis examines the suitability of paperclay as a detachable gap filler to repair lost sections in earthenware ceramic artefacts. Normal clay fills used in ceramic conservation have high shrinkage rates between production and end, fired stage. While paper pulp in the clay would not improve shrinkage, it is postulated that it would improve its working properties and green strength, resulting in a more versatile fill material. Properties of paperclay, namely, shrinkage, green and fired strength, porosity, working properties and resistance to mould growth were tested. All tests were conducted on six earthenware clay samples with incremental additions of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% w/w paper pulp, fired to three temperatures (790{u00BA} C, 945{u00BA}C and 1101{u00BA}C). Percentage shrinkage was calculated by measuring the volumes of dry and fired samples. Green strength was tested by performing flexural strength tests on unfired, dry samples. Compressive strength tests were performed on fired and unfired samples. Porosity tests were conducted on fired samples to examine the relationship between porosity and fired strength. The susceptibility of the unfired composite to mould growth at elevated relative humidity levels and warm temperatures was also examined. Analysis of the data showed a two-fold improvement in raw strength and a five{u00AD}fold improvement in working properties of paperclay with 2% w/w paper pulp. Shrinkage rates were close to 0% at 1040{u00BA}C (Cone 05) for this percentage composition. The compressive strength of the raw and fired 2% composite (3.8 MPa and 20.4 MPa) equates to its ability to withstand a load of approximately 40 kg/cm{u00B3} for the raw composite and 200 kg/cm{u00B3} for the sample fired to Cone 06. Thus the 2% paperclay composite fired to Cone 05, satisfied all the requirements of a gap filler in a museum environment. Additions of paper pulp in the raw composite make it susceptible to mould attack under elevated humidity conditions. Further research is recommended to find a mould inhibitor or a conservation grade coating/varnish that would act as a barrier to moisture and mould attack.

Abstract:
This chapter contains a brief quote from Raymond Chandler, who boils down the emotional impact of detective fiction down to the image of a paperclip. Chandler, the premier practitioner of the American hard-boiled detective novel, elevated the wisecrack into a rhetorical figure somewhere between sarcasm and simile, as the chapter shows. Chandler was an opinionated man capable of aphoristic pith. From there, the chapter reveals Chandler's eloquent “theory” of detective fiction, in which he illustrates the struggle inherent in the dying moments of a hypothetical character. In this brief passage, Chandler tells of the victim's struggles in picking up a paperclip, thus revealing what he considers to be the true impact of a detective novel upon the reader.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter addresses a key element of Abhinavagupta’s panentheism: the question of how we get sentience, through looking at the possibilities for computer sentience, machine AI, and specifically Nick Bostrom’s discussion of a paperclip apocalypse. Abhinavagupta locates the essence of sentience in the term vimarśa. I suggest Abhinavagupta’s use of the term vimarśa more closely approximates what contemporary neuroscientists and philosophers, such as Anil Seth and John Searle, understand as consciousness, rather than the terms that are ubiquitously used to translate the notion of consciousness from Indian languages to English, like cit, citi, or saṃvid. This chapter argues that Abhinavagupta affords priority to vimarśa precisely because of its links to activity, a capacity to do things in our material reality. Employing a dual-aspect monism, his formulation parses out a key distinction for his panentheism, but also for a contemporary panpsychism and for New Materialism: the idea of consciousness as a fabric of reality in relation to awareness as a first-person perspective. This entails a pervasive subjectivity, even within matter.

Abstract:
The Alternative Uses Test is a measure of divergent thinking in which participants are asked to list non-obvious uses for a common object in a fixed amount of time. In this study, participants were asked to list alternative uses for a paperclip in three minutes. From a pool of over 2000 participants including engineering professionals and students, 293 were chosen and evaluated. Using infrequency of responses as a measure of novelty, it was found that participants that produced more responses had more novel responses and a higher average novelty score. Later responses were significantly more novel than early responses and unoriginality of responses decreased with quantity. On average, a participant would list 9 responses before arriving at highly novel responses. Participants that did not reach 9 responses in the study were likely to have few if any highly novel responses. If this test maps to real world problem solving, it suggests that the first ideas we think of are likely to have been suggested already by others and thus not original. The results of this study can help restructure the format of the Alternative Uses Test.

Abstract:
Previous studies have found that the first few ideas we think of for a given prompt are likely to be less original than the later ideas. In this study, 460 participants were given the Alternative Uses Test (AUT) where they were asked to list alternative uses for a paperclip, creating a database of 235 unique answers, each having a relative occurrence rate in that pool. It was found that later responses were significantly more novel than early responses and on average the originality of responses exponentially increased with quantity. A closer look at this data reveals that a person is likely to have a lower overall originality score if he or she has more elaborate responses. 89 of these participants were also given the Abbreviated Torrance Test For Adults (ATTA) and the data from both tests was used to study relationships between elaboration, fluency, and originality. The data from the AUT reveals a strong negative correlation between an individual’s average number of words per response and his or her average originality score. It is hypothesized that people who spend more time writing multiple-word responses have less time to generate many different ideas thus hindering their ability to reach the novel ideas. Similarly, the ATTA reveals that after two extraneous details, elaboration on a drawing will negatively impact fluency and originality scores. This is not to say that elaborate ideas cannot be original, but rather that in time-limited situations, elaboration may hinder the production of original ideas. In applying this to real world problem solving and idea generation, it is suggested that people may prevent themselves from finding creative solutions if too much time is spent on discussing the first few suggested ideas from a brainstorming session. It is suggested that a more effective brainstorming session will delay discussion until a significant number of ideas are generated.
