Résumé :

Abstract Medical imaging is predominantly a visual field. In this context, prenatal ultrasound images assume intense social, ethical, and psychological significance by virtue of the subject they represent: the fetus. This feature, along with the sophistication introduced by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging that allows improved visualization of the fetus, has contributed to the common impression that prenatal ultrasound scans are like photographs of the fetus. In this article we discuss the consistency of such a comparison. First, we investigate the epistemic role of both analogic and digital photographic images as visual information-providing representations holding a high degree of objectivity. Second, we examine the structure and process of production of ultrasound scans and argue that a comparison between two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound and photography is justified. This is in contrast to 3D ultrasound images that, due to the intensive mathematical processing involved in their production, present some structural issues that obfuscate their ontological and epistemic status.

Thelander, Åsa, et Cecilia Cassinger. « Brand New Images ? Implications of Instagram Photography for Place Branding ». Media and Communication 5, n^o 4 (21 décembre 2017) : 6–14. http://dx.doi.org/10.17645/mac.v5i4.1053.

Résumé :

The aim of this article is to develop an understanding of what happens when Instagram photography is used for branding a place. Questions raised are which photographs are taken and published, does the practice result in novel ways of representing a place, and, in turn the image of a place. A practice approach to photography is used where focus is directed to the performative aspect of photography. Fifteen qualitative interviews were conducted with participants in an Instagram takeover project concerning their photographs. The study shows that adopting a communication strategy based on visual social media is dependent on the participants’ competencies and that it is embedded in everyday life. Moreover, the participants’ photographic practices were found to be influenced by social conventions, which resulted in the city being imagined differently by different participants. To use visual social media such as Instagram for branding purposes does not necessarily mean that novel images are generated, but that they are choreographed according to the conditions of Instagram as medium.

Résumé :

This article analyses historically the photographs taken by Genevieve Naylor, an American photographer commissioned by US State Department during the Second World War, when she travelled throughout Brazil, as a good neighbour photographer. In this sense, it is considered the elements of the form of expression and the content of the photographic message, emphasizing the three aspects of visual cultural strategies: firstly, the way in whichthe human subjects are depicted, understanding the representations of the body as support for social relationships. The body represented in Naylor’s photographs is the sign through which social relationships are revealed; secondly, how the places where Naylor travelled were depicted in the creation of a sensitive geography seeking to overcome the official protocols to show a multiple Brazil; fallowed by an evaluation of how her images were publicized throughout cross country exhibitions.

Résumé :

As their first daily task, women in South India draw geometrical images, kolams, in front of their homes to greet the deities. These images engender and reinforce moods in the community, they construct feminine gender and they define the landscape as social. The paper describes how the employment of an artistic practice—photography—can affect the understanding of the kolam, an artistic practice in itself. Photography has a key role in that it has been used as a tool during field work, as well as in the presentation of research in the form of photographic essays. The expressive aspects in particular of this media are considered as means to address visual and sensory experience and as complementary to analytical texts. It is suggested that the use of artistic practice, in dialogue with texts, productively engages the tension between the sensory and the discursive, between intimacy and distance. The aim is to contribute to anthropological understandings of, and approaches to, images, aesthetics and artistic practice. The aesthetic aspect of the kolam is presented as local social aesthetics; an appreciation founded in local morality, and continuously reproduced as well as contested in a social environment. Keywords: kolam, South India, visual anthropology, photography, art, aesthetics, gender

Résumé :

Life for the population in the Czech Republic came to a standstill in spring 2020 due to measures enacted in relation to the Coronavirus epidemic: a travel ban and closed borders, the cancellation of physical lessons at all types of school, the closure of stores except those securing basic necessities, radical restrictions to free movement of people. This unprecedented situation became the inspiration for creative work by students at the Studio of Advertising Photography at Tomas Bata University in Zlin. Since joint work in the studio was not possible, the students were given their assignments as part of the Digital Photography classes in the form of a document reflecting the social situation during the Corona crisis. Selected visual narratives, or photo novellas, are a methodical component of arts-based research, meaning the use of art artefacts and imagination for a more complete knowledge of this mode of social reality. Verbal commentary complements the images’ topic by interpreting the main themes of the selected photographic images: Easter festivities without religious services, sewing facemasks and covering faces, newly discovered meanings of borders and emptiness, the social role of meals in family life. The Coronavirus crisis has revealed the hidden opportunities of a new way to see and discover again how to evaluate our everyday life, something which in the haste of each ordinary day can become subconscious routine.

Résumé :

The economic crisis in Greece is becoming a way of life and it is affecting, among other things, the way the Greek society views immigration. Greek people are waking up to the reality that immigrants in the streets of big cities would not go back. The kind of economic state of emergency in need of all sorts of austerity measures the Greek society is entering, shockingly, brings about the fear even in liberal minds that the country cannot provide for all. In this paper I draw from my own newly conducted ethnographic study to explore two interconnected themes: the study of local aspects of integration of Sub-Saharan African migrants in the city center of Athens, Greece and the use of photographic images in ethnographic research. More specifically, the paper discusses the representations of difference via a series of contemporary street photographs depicting everyday life instances of African migrants in the city center of Athens. It thus creates a visual narrative of metropolitan life, which forms the basis for a discussion on three themes related to discourses on migrant integration in light of today’s economic crisis: a) the physical and social environment of marginalization, b) the migrant body, and c) the fear of the migrant.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

In a historical approach, this article examines the way immigration was captured by means of a medium that was just as new and astonishing as the social upheavals brought about by modernity of which immigration itself was a key factor: photography. To this purpose, photographs taken on Ellis Island by Lewis W. Hine, one of the major photographers of his time, are described, analyzed, and interpreted. After a short introduction to the photographer’s method and approach to the subject, an in-depth analysis of four examples from his Ellis Island series shall help to elucidate in how far his visualizations of the migration process convey a remarkably wide array of factual and emotional aspects linked to this chapter of US history. Not only do the photographs give a vivid impression of the daily proceedings immigrants and officials were involved in, they also shed light on the immigrants as not merely masses of foreigners but as human beings. It is Hine’s aim of countering prevalently negative opinions and images as well as the focus on the individual immigrant experience that makes his work social photography and thus situates his photographs on the threshold between social documentation and art.

Résumé :

Esta criação foi inspirada nos registros fotográficos obtidos no processo de pesquisa de doutorado sobre interações ecológicas entre as condições de saúde e fragilidade, o modo de vida e o contexto ribeirinho amazônico. A abordagem transcultural adotada neste percurso de pesquisa permitiu a utilização de técnicas diferenciadas como a de fotografia. Assim, o acervo de imagens construído e posteriormente analisado de forma crítica e contextualizada pelos pesquisadores auxiliou na compreensão de diversos aspectos subjetivos envolvendo, especialmente, o modo de vida e os papeis ocupacionais desses idosos. Uma das principais percepções alcançadas foi o intenso desempenho das funções cotidianas, quase sempre moldadas por aspectos culturais muito peculiares, o que revelou tanto a preservação da funcionalidade desses idosos, quanto dos papeis ocupacionais nos ambientes domiciliares e/ou sociais, apontando para um envelhecimento nitidamente ativo às margens dos rios amazônicos. Abstract This creation was inspired by the photographic records obtained in the doctoral research process on ecological interactions between health conditions and fragility, the way of life and the Amazonian riverside context. The cross-cultural approach adopted in this research allowed the use of different techniques such as photography. Thus, the collection of images constructed and later analyzed in a critical way and contextualized by the researchers helped in the understanding of several subjective aspects involving, especially, the way of life and the occupational roles of these elderly people. One of the main perceptions reached was the intense performance of everyday functions, almost always shaped by very peculiar cultural aspects, which revealed both the preservation of the functionality of these elderly people and the occupational roles in the home and / or social environments, pointing to a marked aging active on the banks of the Amazonian rivers.Keywords: Health Behavior; Healthy Aging; Photography; Aged; Riverside

Résumé :

Adolescent perspectives on coping are often explored through quantitative methods within a problem-focused paradigm. To better understand how urban adolescents define, perceive, and experience coping, this research used photovoice, a qualitative research method that employs co-creation of meaning and knowledge around photographic images. Twelve adolescents in the 9th-11th grades at a Baltimore City High School photographed images representing coping. They participated in focus groups to discuss how their pictures reflected coping and its relationship to decision-making, development, and academic success. Participants identified different types of coping, as well as strategies and resources in their homes, school, and community. They classified coping as “good” or “bad,” depending on its impact on themselves and others. They described how coping evolves and noted long-term consequences of different coping strategies, suggesting a future-oriented aspect to their understanding of the concept. Students presented these findings to key stakeholders including a congressional representative, the Baltimore City School Board, community members, and their peers. Study findings elucidate the importance of adolescent perspectives to the coping research literature. Moreover, findings can inform the development of school and community-based programs designed to foster coping among urban adolescents.

Résumé :

The subject of this research is the St. Petersburg’s ballet in interpretation of the masters of fashion photography. The goal of this article consists in the analysis of specificity of modern fashion photography, and examination of the phenomenon of reference to the theme of ballet on the example of works of the prominent fashion photographers, such as Richard Avedon, Patrick Demarchelier, Deborah Turbeville, as well as certain Russian photographers. Special attention is given to examination of fashion photography not so much as the genre of photographic art, but as an important advertising tool. The relevance of fashion photography is associated with the increasing importance of visualization in life of a modern person; it plays a significant role in the social, cultural, and mythological life of the society. The article outlines the aspects of reference of fashion photographers to the theme of ballet; analyzes the peculiarities of using ballet images in photography; determines their role as a visual component of advertising campaigns in fashion industry; describes the advantages and effectiveness of their use in advertising and presentation of products. The author notes the frequency of referring to the theme of ballet in fashion photography, which leads to the increase of its artistic and cultural significance.

Résumé :

Previous research on selfies has primarily focused on selfies as media products rather than as an activity. In this paper, we examine selfies as a situated practice, connecting the social media phenomenon to the local spaces where it is performed. Based on ethnographic studies of selfie photography, we present and discuss three aspects of selfies in the wild. First, we consider selfies as part of a larger photographic context and show how they are often taken in series with other genres of images. Second, we expand upon the notion of selfies as conversation and show how selfie photographers exchange messages with remote friends and followers while attending to the local environment. Third, we discuss socializing around selfies, examining how copresent friends socialize around the production of selfies. These findings show the importance of considering selfies beyond the online context, and highlight the many ways that selfies are interweaved with our everyday activities.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The article focuses on the analysis of the liquefaction of basic settings of the modernity's visual practises, specifically of signification regime and mode. The general dynamics of historical types of visual practices and the role of the Modern vision regime in it are described. The visual parameters of the signifying modes of realism and modernism are defined. The crisis of modern visual practices is specified through the logic of their transformation. The status of photography as the basic visual practice of the modernism signifying mode is proved. From the beginning of the era of "technical production" the pathos of the position of the artist as the producer of the image requires not only the act of creation, but also the aim of commercialization, which entails the act of "exhibiting", a certain way of presentation. An important aspect of the artist's mission is to move the image from the everyday and profane (if we resort to aesthetic categorical apparatus) spheres to the space of the artistic field. A striking example of the dilution of the visual parameters of high Modernity is photography. The lens becomes the mediator of the act of see- ing the person, and subject-object relations with the world break because of the mediocrity of the photographic image, which promotes its reality. Photo documentation creates a new form of perception of time – fragments in which some events are identified as important and some remain peripheral. If an artist thinks of painting (Cézanne's thought) and has creative thinking, then a photographer who thinks of frames only reduces being to the individual. A photo does not simply reflect reality, it reproduces reality, that is, it transfers it from thing to reproduction of things, pho- tography carries the existence of a photographed object. And as a result, we recognize that the photographic image is the object itself. Photography as an image begins to organize not only high culture, but also everyday life, being the basis of visuality and the basis of everyday social practices. The transformations that photo-images make to the parameters of Modernity's visuals form the basis for visual postmodernism.

Lehmuskallio, Asko. « More Grimaces, Fewer Smiles : Notes on The Thin Line Between The Smile and Grimace in Photographic Depictions ». Grimace, Vol. 2, no. 1 (2017) : 64–67. http://dx.doi.org/10.47659/m2.064.art.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Grimaces are important facial expressions used in situated interactions for questioning social hierarchies and power relations. They counter the warmth of the smile and its invitation for shared foci of attention. In the photographs that surround us, the grimace is seldom to be found, whereas the smile is an almost ubiquitous expression in depictions in our “facial societies” (Macho, 2011). Interestingly, the need for depicted smiles provides us increasingly with images that depict not only smiles but, ever more, “as if” versions of smiles, facial expressions that we can identify with Goffman as “teeth grimaces”. While teeth grimaces reveal some aspects of how smiles are produced for depiction for our facial societies, the paper further suggests that we need more grimaces and fewer smiles in order to remember how social hierarchies and power relations, far from being abstract phenomena, must be constantly renegotiated in situated interactions. Keywords: communication, face, grimace, social interaction and the grimace, symbolic power and the grimace

ABSTRACT Introduction: In a saturated market with an over-supply of undergraduate and graduate programs, social media have become attractive means of advertising in Dentistry. However, posts frequently contain ethical violations and lead to service commodification, and their contents are often in disagreement with the Code of Consumer Protection. Objective: This article, which focuses on ethical and legal developments, contributes to the discussion and elucidation of questions associated with advertising that uses clinical images and photographs of patients in social media for commercial purposes and self-promotion. Conclusion: Social media and networks are valuable tools of dissemination and exchange of information because of their flexibility, democratic character and low cost. However, their abusive or misleading use, as well as the ethical and legal violations associated with the difficulty in controlling their use, may lead to serious damages and unfavorable court decisions.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Digital photography has impacted the visual truth in terms of image operation technology. The paper analyzes the performance of image manipulation in digital photography, and asserts that the operation image’s resolution of visual truth can be described by three aspects: the fact deviation, the reconstruction of the situation, the trust crisis, the filter survival, the second reprint, and the value change. Consequently, there are three visual ethical problems associated with the manipulation of images by technology, the siege of images on people, and distortions of social order caused by the manipulation of images by technology. Thus, it is suggested that visual ethics be reconstructed from three perspectives: reconstructing the dominant role of human beings in the digital era, returning to the original significance of visual images, and constructing multiple visual structures.

Les plus récentes sont dites virtuelles : ces images semblent n'avoir pas d'autre origine qu'elles-mêmes ; à la manière des images de rêve, elles s'engendrent de leur propre mouvement et de manière aléatoire. Pour l'historien, cependant, il n'y a de nouveauté qu'inscrite dans une histoire longue qui invite à rétablir les continuités temporelles que l'observation immédiate du présent risque de masquer.

Résumé :

Sharon Green's short film Self Portrait of a Nude Model Turned Cinematographer (1971) represents a collision of incipient cinefeminism and autobiographical filmmaking. Containing a blend of still photographs and subjective moving-image shots of her body, the work has largely been overlooked because of a reductive framing of it as mere homage to male avant-garde artists such as Stan Brakhage, for whom Green was a nude model. By analyzing aspects of visual form, production, and exhibition, this article performs a corrective “microhistory” that reclaims Green's film as an important hybrid of erotic self-portraiture and social critique. It also situates Green in relation to proximate artists Carolee Schneemann and Yvonne Rainer. Despite ongoing neglect of the work, Green's Self Portrait remains a potent visual archive that reveals the power hierarchies of the 1970s film community in Pittsburgh, while it questions the masculinist assumptions that underlie avant-garde media and historiography.

This article analyzes the influence of historical aspects on the concept of family, social and emotional relations of the institution of the family, based on the consideration of family photo albums of Kazakhstan in the second half of the XXth century. The article deals with the main issues of family history, focusing on identifying their main goals and interests in family photography. Photography focuses on three areas in which most historical research is carried out today: the structure of the family and household, the group of relatives, the course of life, and the relationship between the family and social change. The images in the photo were analyzed in the context of understanding ways of adjusting to life, as well as documenting more social aspects of daily life that they could not access from other historical sources. The article also analyzes the combination of modern "classical" photography theory and modern cultural theory to show the possible interpretative implications of the analysis of family photography based on cultural theory, sociocultural anthropology, material culture studies, impact factor theory and phenomenology.

Résumé :

Goals. The paper examines the issue of visual images in the everyday ritual practice of ordinary Buddhists in Buryatia. The relevance of studying rare Buddhist photographs as a historical and cultural source cannot be questioned, since this perspective reveals unknown aspects in the formation of Buryat identity and the role of Buddhism in this process. Materials. The work investigates the collection of rare photographs at the Institute for Mongolian, Buddhist and Tibetan Studies (Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences) and photographs of the ritual complex ‘khoimor-gungurba’ collected during expeditions of the 1950-1970s and in the early 21st century. Results. A method (metalanguage) of describing Buddhist photo images was developed during preliminary works to clarify the mechanism of actualizing this material in Buddhist discourse, including elements as follows: a mechanism of image selection; cultural context; ritual and social goals; nature of materials; registration of believers’ reactions to visual images. The paper shows a close relationship between the local visual practice of Buddhists and the formation of Buryat identity from the late 19th towards the 21st century, which is concluded from a comparative analysis of the two databases. After a comparative reconstruction of the structures of the collections, the work argues that the everyday ritual practice of praying before these photos is an important aspect in the formation of local identity. The most interesting finding of the study is that pre-revolutionary images of Buryat Lamas are central in the culture of the photo-visual practices of Buryat Buddhists nowadays. The comparative analysis confirmed that a fundamental change in the transmission of the Buddhist tradition in Buryatia, social changes, and the economic situation led to a change in the development of the traditional Buddhist culture of the Buryats that currently prioritizes autocephaly and the preservation of ethnic identity.

Abstract India has the highest number of Instagram users in the world. This article examines Instagram, the mobility, and the digital media practices of Delhi Metro commuters before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, it looks at their photography of everyday lived experiences, their mediated interactions with one another, and the visible-invisible infrastructure in the city. It draws attention to the complexity of digital production, personal archiving, and circulation networks at play. Foregrounding the changing ‘geographies of social media’, a qualitative, digital ethnographic approach analyses these images’ visual, social, and contextual aspects. Also, a range of convergent practices related to individuals, places, and socio-cultural-political-economic-technological realities influence the images. Eventually, a narrative emerges on how these metro travellers inhabit offline and online public spaces, exchange cultural capital, and perform the affective, mediated negotiation of the city.

Résumé :

The presence of photography as a medium of communication has transformed into an art that not only perpetuates reality in images (visuals), but also poetic values and/or image language. Likewise, journalistic photography works are created not only based on existing moments or events, but are also influenced by views, skills, and other factors inherent in the photographer. The photographer has the right to place his philosophical aspects based on the importance of his secondary needs. The creation of photographic works is the result of the integration of the social, spiritual and cultural life of the photographer, in this context as was done by Fanny Octavianus who consistently documented the Aksi Kamisan by activists to demand that the government resolve cases of human rights violations. The consistency of the Aksi Kamisan becomes a strength that makes this action full of values that can be observed through the signs implied in every action they take. From this explanation, Fanny’s work on Aksi Kamisan is studied through factual and expressive visual signs, themes and concepts, and also looks for the symbolic value in Fanny’s work. In carrying out this excavation and search, the method of art history uses the Iconography and Iconology approach of Erwin Panofsky. As a result, this study found that there were various visual markers of the Aksi Kamisan photo that were factual and expressive. Factual markers can be observed from formal aspects, while expressional markers are obtained from motion effects created by controlling the camera using slow motion techniques. The symbolic values conveyed in this Aksi Kamisan photo are the era of openness in conveying people’s opinions directly to the government, which can be seen as a symbol of cultural openness in the reform era. Ikonografi dan Ikonologi Foto Aksi Kamisan (13-2-2014) Karya Fanny Octavianus. Kehadiran fotografi tidak saja mengabadikan realitas dalam gambar (visual), namun juga nilai puitis dan atau bahasa gambar. Begitu juga dengan karya fotografi jurnalistik yang tercipta tidak sekadar berdasarkan momen atau peristiwa, tetapi dipengaruhi oleh pandangan, kemampuan keterampilan, dan faktor lain yang melekat pada diri fotografernya. Fotografer berhak menempatkan aspek filosofisnya berdasarkan kepentingan kebutuhan sekundernya. Penciptaan karya foto merupakan hasil dari integrasi kehidupan sosial, spiritual dan kebudayaan si pemotret, dalam konteks ini seperti yang dilakukan oleh Fanny Octavianus yang konsisten mendokumentasikan Aksi Kamisan yang dilakukan para aktivis untuk menuntut pemerintah menuntaskan kasus pelanggaran Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM). Konsistensi aksi Kamisan menjadi sebuah kekuatan yang menjadikan aksi ini penuh dengan nilai yang dapat diamati melalui tanda-tanda tersirat dalam setiap aksi yang dilakukan. Dari pemaparan tersebut, karya Fanny tentang Aksi Kamisan dikaji melalui tanda-tanda visual yang bersifat faktual dan ekspresional, tema dan konsep, dan juga dicari nilai simbolik yang ada dalam karya Fanny tersebut. Dalam melakukan penggalian dan pencarianini menggunakan metode sejarah seni dengan pendekatan Ikonografi dan Ikonologi Erwin Panofsky. Hasilnya, penelitian ini menemukan adanya berbagai penanda visual foto Aksi Kamisan yang bersifat faktual dan ekpresional. Penanda faktual dapat diamati dari aspek-aspek formal, sedangkan penanda ekspresional didapat dari efek gerak yang diciptakan dengan pengendalian kamera menggunakan teknik slow motion. Nilai-nilai simbolik yang disampaikan dalam foto Aksi Kamisan ini adalah era keterbukaan dalam menyampaikan pendapat rakyat langsung kepada pemerintah bisa dipandang sebagai simbol keterbukaan kultur era reformasi.

Résumé :

Human skin, photography, and consumer culture combine to produce striking images designed to promote visions of the good life. Branding and marketing imagery mobilize skin to resonate and communicate with consumers, which influences the meaning-making possibilities of skin more broadly. Representations of skin in consumer culture, including marketing communications, are anything but ‘blank’ backgrounds or ‘neutral’ meaning spaces. We analyse how skin ‘appears’ to work, and how its appearance in consumer culture imagery reveals ideological and pedagogical aspects of skin. Building upon psychodynamic and interdisciplinary understandings of skin, we discuss dimensions of the body that feed marketing communications and branding. We highlight representational fetishization and the epidermal schema as conceptual tools to interrogate the commodification of skin and as constitutive elements in processes of skin commodification. We provide theoretical insights to address the ways in which skin is implicated in new and emerging concerns of digital representational practices.

Résumé :

In this article, we analyze the common uses that adolescents of the City of Buenos Aires display in the Facebook platform. From the review of the state of the art and the empirical evidence gathered by 30 in-depth interviews, 24 months of daily virtual observation and the analysis of 200 profiles in Facebook, it is displayed that for both groups of adolescents the social network is their central entertainment and communication environment. At the same time, the primary uses they give to Facebook within the site refer to self presentation, interchanging personal information between friends, sex-affective relationship searches, and exploring different aspects of their sociability and identity. We examine the most «popular» posts between adolescents (photos, personal texts). Besides, we describe the most usual ludic-communication uses: chat, upgrading status, photographic prosumption and streaming. In this sense, we acknowledge that daily use of the resource bythis population is the sharing of intimate performances with the goal of increasing sociability between peers and accomplish a higher visibility both in and out of the site. Thus, by studying the images in the timeline’s of adolescents, evidence is exposed showing that gender representations are in conflict with traditional models and new forms of masculinity and femininity. En este artículo se abordan los usos comunes que realizan los adolescentes de la ciudad de Buenos Aires en la plataforma Facebook. A partir de la revisión del estado de la cuestión y de la evidencia empírica recogida en 30 entrevistas en profundidad, 24 meses de observaciones virtuales diarias y el análisis de contenido de 200 perfiles de Facebook, se muestra que para ambos grupos de adolescentes la red social es su entorno central de entretenimiento y comunicabilidad. A su vez, que sus principales usos dentro de este sitio son la autopresentación, el intercambio de contenidos personales entre amistades, la búsqueda de relaciones sexo-afectivas y la exploración de distintos aspectos de su sociabilidad e identidad. Se indaga en los tipos de publicaciones más «populares» entre los adolescentes (fotos y textos personales). Además, se describen los usos lúdico-comunicacionales más habituales: chat, actualizar estados, prosumo fotográfico y streaming. En este sentido, se observa que un recurso de uso cotidiano entre esta población es el intercambio de performances de intimidad con el objetivo de aumentar la sociabilidad entre pares y lograr una mayor visibilidad dentro y fuera del sitio. Asimismo, por medio del análisis de imágenes de los muros de los adolescentes, se aporta evidencia acerca de que las representaciones de género se encuentran en conflicto entre los modelos tradicionales y las nuevas formas de masculinidad y feminidad.

Résumé :

As a social phenomenon, tourism is an activity that takes place in different cultural environment. This paper aims to explore tourism experience through the use of photo elicitation as a media for collecting data. The in-depth interviewed conducted using research participants own generated photographs that include aspects such as cultural, social and geographical. and the data emerged from tourist narratives as well as the images. Pictures captured by participants served as the baselined of interview process. Collaborative approach in which research participants portray the pictures and gives meaning to the experiences. The data analyse using qualitative approach and three themes resulted from the analysis; “portraying the sceneries”, “portraying the relationality”, “portraying the hazardous”. The initial two imply into the positive experiences, while the third theme indicates negative one. The findings in this research illustrated how the experience was highly influenced by the physical environment, natural setting of destinations as well as human interactions.

Résumé :

This paper is devoted to image encoding based on determining the similarity of fragments by using neural networks to extract the features of fragments and machine learning algorithms to find similar fragments. In the modern world, the problem of image storage is quite relevant. Graphic data takes up quite a lot of disk space, while Internet users upload more and more pictures. Also, every year there is a development of photography and image quality is improving, respectively, and the size of graphic data is growing. Data warehouses of social networks, messengers, file sharers and other Internet resources are filled with tens of thousands of new pictures every day. Therefore, the question arises about reducing the size of graphic data. In general, it should be noted that one of the most important and defining aspects of both storage and transmission of information is its compression. The problem described above is solved by encoding and compressing images. With the help of coding, the size of graphic information is reduced, which saves storage space and, accordingly, the money spent. In view of this, it is important to develop a method and means of image coding. Many methods exist for compressing graphic information. For example, jpeg, webp, png and others. These methods usually use the removal of redundant information in the photo and work purely with the image itself, but none of the methods uses fragments of similar images. The article uses convolutional neural networks and KNN (k-Nearest Neighbors) classifier for image encoding. and compares the size of the encoded image with the input. In order to encode the image, you first need to fill the data warehouse with features of fragments of similar images, then for each fragment of the obtained images you need to select the features and write to the data warehouse. Once the snippet feature database is formed, you can encode new images using saved snippets.

Résumé :

Background: Scarification involves cutting or making an incision into the skin and then allowing the wound to heal, leaving a permanent scar. The purpose of this article is to examine the origins of scarification and its social and medical significance in sub-Saharan Africa. Methods: We conducted a computerized search in the MEDLINE electronic database with combinations of the following terms: scarification, tribal marks, keloid, hypertrophic scar, Africa, and sub-Saharan Africa. Inclusion criteria were studies published in English involving human participants. We reviewed the bibliography of each article that met our inclusion criteria for additional relevant studies. We abstracted data on the historical, social, and medical aspects of scarification from eligible studies. Results: This review of scarification in sub-Saharan Africa highlights the complex interplay that exists between biology and society. Photographs, artwork, and literary descriptions reveal that scarification results in hypertrophic or atrophic scars, although these types of scars are often mistakenly referred to as keloids. In terms of the procedural aspects of scarification, specific tools and substances were consistently used by various ethnic groups. Although much is known about the history of scarification as a form of identification in Africa, it appears that the practice also had medical applications. Scarification was used to treat conditions such as epilepsy, although it was also known to exacerbate conditions such as sarcoidosis, lichen planus, and psoriasis. Evolving cultural beliefs, in addition to the association of scarification with an increased risk of contracting hepatitis B and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), are contemporary threats to this long-standing practice. Conclusions: Given the remarkably consistent appearance of scars that are described in the literature and depicted in images, scarification does not appear to be a random or accidental occurrence. Instead, it is a deliberate attempt to reproduce a custom that has been perfected after many years of practice in sub-Saharan Africa.

Résumé :

Background: Long-term opiate users experience pervasive social difficulties, but there has been surprisingly limited research focused on social-cognitive functioning in this population. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate whether three important aspects of social cognition (facial emotion recognition, theory of mind (ToM) and rapid facial mimicry) differ between long-term opiate users and healthy controls. Methods: The participants were 25 long-term opiate users who were enrolled in opiate substitution programmes, and 25 healthy controls. Facial emotion recognition accuracy was indexed by responses to 60 photographs of faces depicting the six basic emotions (happiness, sadness, anger, fear, surprise and disgust). ToM was assessed using the Reading the Mind in the Eyes task, which requires participants to infer mental states of others from partial facial cues. Rapid facial mimicry was assessed by recording activity in the zygomaticus major and corrugator supercilii muscle regions while participants passively viewed images of happy and angry facial expressions. Results: Relative to the control group, the opiate user group exhibited deficits in both facial emotion recognition and ToM. Moreover, only control participants exhibited typical rapid facial mimicry responses to happy facial expressions. Conclusions: These data indicate that long-term opiate users exhibit abnormalities in three distinct areas of social-cognitive processing, pointing to the need for additional work to establish how social-cognitive functioning relates to functional outcomes in this group. Such work may ultimately inform the development of interventions aimed at improving treatment outcomes for long-term opiate users.

Résumé :

There can be no doubt that computer games are artefacts with an increasing importance for our culture. Game design is one of the prime movers for the development of information technology and is leading the way for other sectors. Computer games have brought us cultural activities that were technically impossible before. We now have the possibility to manipulate and interact with people from all over the world in a virtual game space constituted of realistic photographic images. These new activities have created some uneasiness among educators, researchers, designers and parents who have raised a variety of arguments about the effects of computer games on childhood. Many have strong beliefs that the use of computer games can contribute to different aspects of children's development. On the other hand, there is an even stronger anxiety that computer games have negative social and cognitive effects on children. Even though this means that there is a clear need for research on the issue of computer games as a part of contemporary childhood, academic study in this area has been divided, with fragments of knowledge scattered over a wide field of different discourses and traditions. In this article, the authors seek to summarise and discuss some of the studies and theoretical arguments about children and computer games. In order to do this, they outline and sketch some of the different empirical findings and research traditions that they find relevant for the understanding of computer games as a part of childhood. The purpose of this is to contribute with an overview that can be utilised as a resource for educators, parents, designers and others who deal with matters concerning children and computer games.

Résumé :

NanoGrande is the culmination of an art-science effort that brought undergraduate students and faculty from science, engineering, and the visual arts together with professional microscopists of the Capital District Microscopy and Microanalysis Society for electron microscopy education and outreach. Students from two independent undergraduate courses, an advanced photography course and a microscopy laboratory course, collaborated on the project. The participants represented a wide range of majors, including chemistry, biology, electrical engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, bioengineering, psychology, neuroscience, sociology/social sciences, history, and the visual arts. Emphasis was placed on both the scientific and the artistic aspects of the imaging process. The creation of electron microscopy images that were at the same time scientifically meaningful and visually compelling depended critically on communication of insights and ideas between paired students. The collaboration generated an art-science exhibition, NanoGrande, that has been presented to over four-thousand K through 12 students.

Résumé :

This study explores the change over time in the World Heritage Site (WHS) of Diriyah over three critical periods, focusing on three aspects: physical, social, and economic. Using a mixed-method approach, the site’s heritage management practices and development impact are investigated, and the impact of WHS inscription on the field of heritage in Saudi Arabia is demonstrated. A methodological approach is used in this study, which includes temporal analysis, analysis of historical images and photographs, non-participant observation and semi-structured interviews with key informants, site fieldwork, analysis of archival research, the content of official documents, related media, and promotional materials. The study concludes with a three-aspect matrix demonstrating Historic Diriyah’s various development and change over time. Historic Diriyah is a WHS, and it can still project a successful massive makeover development if a sustainable development approach is used, and visual integrity and site authenticity are preserved. The site of Historic Diriyah and its surroundings were critical in promoting the site as a national identity, an international destination, and presenting a new development agenda for the entire kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It has a significant impact on policymakers who are interested in how heritage sites can be integrated into a larger vision.

Résumé :

Introduction. The interest of modern humanities in the field of the visual involves systematic work with the structural and content elements of the spectacle, encoding important information about social being and thinking, about the value systems of man and society, about the nature of receptions and models of cognition adopted in a particular era. The subject of attention in the article is the basic coding tool of visuality - the gaze mode or the scopic mode. Elucidation of its nature and mode of action opens up the possibility of a philosophical consideration of the cognitive models of the era. The purpose: of the article is to present models of scopic modes in the aspect of the philosophical theory of visuality, to reveal their epistemological significance and to consider examples of the practi- cal operation of such modes in films of the 20th and 21st centuries. Methods. In the course of the study, general scien- tific methods of analysis and synthesis were used; the method of phenomenological reduction, which allows fixing the sensually perceived qualities of ob- ject-spatial screen images; a hermeneutic method that allows, on the basis of visible sign structures, to reveal the deep intentions of a visual image, as well as methods of structural and discursive analysis of a visual source, which make it possible to identify markers of the philosophical and cultural content of a visual text and the objective causes and conditions for its appearance. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that we ap- proach the visual source from the standpoint of epistemology, which allows us to find out the na- ture of the cognitive strategy of a particular era. We systematize the types of scopic modes accepted in visualism and reveal the possibility of theorizing an additional, “observational” mode, which is relevant for the beginning of the 21st century. Results. In the course of the analysis, we applied the tools and conceptual base of philosophical epistemology to modern visual culture, namely, to photographic and cinematic images. This made it possible to see a certain cognitive strategy behind the same type of way of organizing the spectacle and controlling the spectator’s gaze, and thereby open up a possible path to studying the epistemo- logical “a priori condition” of cognition characteris- tic of a particular era. The five most effective scopic regimes are considered: “Cartesian perspectivism”, “topographic” regime, “baroque” regime, “impulse” and “observational” regimes. Conclusions. Structural and discursive analysis of visual material (photographic series and films) of different decades of the 20th and 21st centuries makes it possible to highlight a special tool that encodes the cognitive intentions of the era in a visual image: the scopic mode or the gaze mode. Using the type of selectivity inherent in it and the dynamics of the gaze as the basic characteristics of the scopic mode, we distinguish five basic scoping modes in the visual practice of the XX—XXI cen- turies.. At the same time, understanding the regime of gaze as an expression and action of the episteme that dominates in a particular era, we discover the philosophical and epistemological field of study of photography or film.

Résumé :

Viewing images of food triggers the desire to eat and this effect increases when images represent food in a more vivid way. Cinemagraphs are a new medium that is intermediate between photographs and videos: most of the frame is static, while some details are animated in a seamless loop, resulting in a vivid viewing experience. On social media cinemagraphs are increasingly used for food-related communication. Given their vivid appearance we hypothesized that food cinemagraphs may evoke stronger appetitive responses than their static counterparts (stills). This would make them a promising medium for food advertisements on the Internet or on digital menu boards. In this study we measured the ‘wanting’ (appetitive) and ‘liking’ (affective) responses to both cinemagraph and stills representing a wide range of different food products. Our results show that food cinemagraphs slightly increase ‘wanting’ scores while not affecting ‘liking’ scores, compared to similar stills. Although we found no overall main effect of image dynamics on ‘liking’, we did observe a significant effect for some individual food items. The effects of image dynamics on ‘wanting’ and ‘liking’ appear to be product specific: while dynamic images were scored higher on ‘wanting’ or ‘liking’ for some products, static images were scored higher on these factors for other products. Observer responses to a free association task indicate that image dynamics can affect the appeal of a food product in two ways: by emphasizing its hedonic qualities (lusciousness, freshness) and by enhancing the observers’ awareness of their own core affect (‘liking’) for the product. We conclude that the effective use of cinemagraphs in food advertisements therefore requires a careful consideration of the characteristics (hedonic aspects) of the food product that are to be highlighted through image motion and the inherent preferences (core liking) of the target group.

Résumé :

Kia ora and welcome to the second issue of BackStory. The members of the Backstory Editorial Team were gratified by the encouraging response to the first issue of the journal. We hope that our currentreaders enjoy our new issue and that it will bring others to share our interest in and enjoyment of the surprisingly varied backstories of New Zealand’s art, media, and design history. This issue takes in a wide variety of topics. Imogen Van Pierce explores the controversy around the Hundertwasser Art Centre and Wairau Māori Art Gallery to be developed in Whangarei. This project has generated debate about the role of the arts and civic architecture at both the local and national levels. This is about how much New Zealanders are prepared to invest in the arts. The value of the artist in New Zealand is also examined by Mark Stocker in his article about the sculptor Margaret Butler and the local reception of her work during the late 1930s. The cultural cringe has a long genealogy. New Zealand has been photographed since the 1840s. Alan Cocker analyses the many roles that photography played in the development of local tourism during the nineteenth century. These images challenged notions of the ‘real’ and the ‘artificial’ and how new technologies mediated the world of lived experience. Recorded sound was another such technology that changed how humans experienced the world. The rise of recorded sound from the 1890s affected lives in many ways and Lewis Tennant’s contribution captures a significant tipping point in this medium’s history in New Zealand as the transition from analogue to digital sound transformed social, commercial and acoustic worlds. The New Zealand Woman’s Weekly celebrates its 85th anniversary this year but when it was launched in 1932 it seemed tohave very little chance of success. Its rival, the Mirror, had dominated the local market since its launch in 1922. Gavin Ellis investigates the Depression-era context of the Woman’s Weekly and how its founders identified a gap in the market that the Mirror was failing to fill. The work of the photographer Marti Friedlander (1908-2016) is familiar to most New Zealanders. Friedlander’s 50 year career and huge range of subjects defy easy summary. She captured New Zealanders, their lives, and their surroundings across all social and cultural borders. In the journal’s profile commentary Linda Yang celebrates Freidlander’s remarkable life and work. Linda also discusses some recent images by Friedlander and connects these with themes present in the photographer’s work from the 1960s and 1970s. The Backstory editors hope that our readers enjoy this stimulating and varied collection of work that illuminate some not so well known aspects of New Zealand’s art, media, and design history. There are many such stories yet to be told and we look forward to bringing them to you.

Résumé :

The successful rehabilitation of Wanagama teaching forests, which began in the late of 1960s, has created a distinctive forest ecosystem. Currently the forests become the habitat of Apis cerana, enterprised by the surrounding villagers to produce natural forest honey as a non-timber forest product. This paper aims to explore the adoption of smallholder beekeeping of A. cerana, the beekeepers’ socio-economic characteristics, the potential and value of forest honey production, the distribution of bee-boxes inside the forests and potential tree sources of nectar and pollen. Data collection was carried out in July - September 2019 with in-depth interview techniques to 38 beekeepers. Field observations and ground checks were carried out on the sites where beekeepers were placing the bee-boxes in the forest. In addition, an analysis of aerial photograph images taken with drone was also carried out to identify the area of trees as sources of nectar and pollen. The results show that between 1982 and 2019 the development of the adoption of the A. cerana beekeeping increased significantly. The total production of honey from 506 bee-boxes reached 658 liters or 894.9 kg in year of 2018/2019. The number of bee-boxes placed in Wanagama was mainly distributed inside Compartment of 13, 17, 14, 16, 5, and 18. Acacia mangium, eucalyptus, cajuput and mahogany were the main types of nectar-producing trees, in addition to the abundance of flowering undergrowth plants. Many of the challenges faced by honey beekeepers included climate change, the shortage of nectar and pollen sources, pests and diseases and human disturbances. This research suggests the need for a social, institutional and technical approaches to increase the forest productivity as sources of nectar and pollen. It is suggested encouraging the smallholders to adopt beekeeping as the main livelihood alternatives in future and planting more trees in Wanagama forests.

Résumé :

This paper focuses on the role of the image as an agent for social transformation. The methodology adopted is a case study: the impact of the photograph of Aylan Kurdi, the three-year-old child drowned off Bodrum in an attempt to escape on a raft full of Syrian migrants. This is one of the most widely seen social photojournalism documents in recent times, and it had a huge impact on social media. The study applies an iconographic, iconological and ethical analysis to reveal the constituent parts of an image with the power for social change. In its main conclusions, this paper describes the potential for easy resignification of the digital graphic image as it symbolically transforms reality, and the power it has to generate processes of pronouncement and activism among citizens in digital environments. The results of the case study show that the value of an image for social change is achieved not only by the magnitude of the tragedy itself and the information that it registers, or by its formal aspects (iconographic), but mainly by being able to express a change of logic (iconological aspects) and to promote processes of reappropriation and denunciation. The ethical debate on dissemination shifts the problem from journalistic ethics to citizen responsibility. Este trabajo plantea el papel de la imagen como agente de transformación social. La metodología que se emplea es un estudio de caso sobre el impacto de la fotografía de Aylan Kurdi, el niño de tres años ahogado en el intento de huida en una balsa de inmigrantes sirios en Bodrum. Se trata de uno de los documentos recientes de fotoperiodismo social más difundidos transnacionalmente y con gran impacto en redes sociales. El estudio aborda diferentes niveles de análisis (iconográfico, iconológico y ético) para decapar los aspectos constitutivos de una imagen con poder de cambio social. Como principales conclusiones, esta investigación comprueba el poder de la imagen gráfica digital por su carácter de fácil reedición y resignificación en el paso de transformar simbólicamente la realidad y generar procesos de pronunciamiento y activismo en la ciudadanía a partir de entornos digitales. Los resultados del análisis del caso que se delimita muestran cómo el valor de una imagen en el cambio social no viene dado solo por la magnitud de la tragedia o el hecho que registra, ni por sus aspectos formales (iconográficos), sino por ser capaz de expresar un cambio de lógica (aspecto iconológico) y propiciar procesos de reapropiación y denuncia ciudadana. Por último, el debate ético sobre su difusión traslada el problema de la deontología periodística a la responsabilidad ciudadana.

Résumé :

This manuscript is a reflexive collaboration between two differently situated researchers. It meets at the crossroad of knowledge and visual activism at three levels: it uses a case study to analyze the possibilities of photovoice as a form of resistance against narratives of hate; it reflects on the ways in which the observed and the observer cooperate to construct from their own perspectives a legitimized knowledge aiming to promote visibility and social transformation; finally, it revises whether photovoice may become a form of visual activism and, if so, the ways in which images may be used toward this goal. Using as a point of departure the work of the photographer Diane Arbus and a photovoice project on being a migrant woman in Spain, the authors elaborate on the power of images to work at the margins, from the margins, and for the margins.

Résumé :

The mass wasting on hillslopes is a natural phenomenon, but it can be affected by human activities. In Brazil, one of the areas affected by these problems is the city of Florianópolis - SC. To solve or reduce these problems, local susceptibility studies are an essential issue. The objective of this research work is to analyse the landslide susceptibility in Saco Grande area, a borough of Florianópolis. For that, we tried to associate several physical and social aspects envolved in the deflagration of that phenomenon. A great number of preliminary thematic maps were made, by using aerial photographies, satellite images and field data. With the support of a geographical information system, some of these maps were overlaid, resulting in the elaboration of the Landslide Susceptibility Map.With all those information avaiable, we were able to make a susceptibility analysis of the study area. We find out that the occurance of landslides are strongly related to inappropriate occupation, which is responsable for a great number of rock falls, the most common type of mass wasting in Saco Grande area. We also realized that the middle portions of hillslopes are the most dangerous places and its occupation has to be avoided. Finally, we recomend the implementation of an emergency plan in the Florianópolis city council.

Résumé :

Nos grandes centros urbanos, percebe-se como latente o problema de destinação e tratamento do lixo de maneira eficiente. Dentre as inúmeras alternativas adotadas de resolução destes problemas, destacam-se as parcerias com o empresariado local para a adoção de processos de coleta seletiva e as parcerias com cooperativas de reciclagem, no intuito de promover a destinação e o reaproveitamento de parte deste lixo, ou seja, do material que antes iria para descarte nos aterros e lixões. Este estudo de caso apresenta a experiência de implantação de um programa de gestão de resíduos, especificamente, de um programa coleta seletiva, dando maior ênfase às etapas de uso da comunicação corporativa para a sensibilização e conscientização do público interno. O tipo de pesquisa utilizado foi a qualitativa, tanto para a coleta quanto para a análise dos dados. Dentre os aspectos observados, ressaltou-se a predominância do uso de textos (e-mail/intranet) e imagens (fotografias e cartazes) durante o processo de sensibilização/conscientização. O estudo permitiu um melhor entendimento da forma como uma organização pode implantar um programa de coleta seletiva, bem como utilizar a comunicação corporativa para difundir, junto ao público interno, os objetivos de um programa. Palavras-chave: Responsabilidade social, gestão ambiental, comunicação empresarial. Abstract In large urban centers, the problem of efficient disposal and treatment of waste is perceived as latent. Among the many alternatives adopted to address those problems, there are partnerships with local businesses to adopt procedures for waste collection and partnerships with recycling cooperatives, in order to promote the disposal and reuse of this waste, i.e. of the material that would prior go disposal in landfills and dumps. This case study presents the experience of introducing a program for waste management, specifically a selective collection program, placing greater emphasis on the steps to use corporate communication to raise the internal public awareness and sensitization. The type of research design was qualitative, for both data collection and analysis. Among the aspects observed, it was emphasized the predominance of the use of texts (e-mail/intranet) and images (photographs and posters) during the process of sensitization/awareness. The study led to a better understanding of how an organization can implement a program of selective collection and use corporate communication to spread among the internal public the objectives of the program. Keywords: Social responsability, environmental management, organizational communication.

Résumé :

Are there any ulterior narratives that could be mined through a close examination and interpretation of the coal mine interior spaces? CO2 Interiors is a visual essay that addresses this question. And to do so, it unpacks a meticulously curated group of archival images that expose the covert narratives of colonialism and slow violence embedded in coal mining’s (extra)ordinary interiors. This creative exercise entails integrating text into images that include a 19th Century etching of young children pushing coal-filled carriages through steep mine tunnels; and a still from an animated film produced in the 1950s by the National Coal Board Film Unit in Britain. There is an image of human tissue affected by Black Lung Disease; and a photograph of a former Australian Prime Minister enacting the mythology of the alpha male explorer, plunging into the unknown and forbidden depths of the planet. Collectively, these image/text hybrids posit an experimental narrative—an assemblage—that starkly contrasts with contemporary depictions by the mining industry, focused on the technical and quantitative aspects of the activity or greenwashing its multiscalar and devastating effects. This project engages multiple forms of visual representation (historical, spatial, political, and ideological) that have conjured a mythology of coal mining still present today. In doing so, certain refrains echo and multiply, persisting across time frames and political borders to produce a taxonomy of subterranean effects. Integrating text and images, our devices yield a performative reading that seeks to raise awareness and produce affect. As such, CO2 Interiors amplifies our understanding of coal mining beyond its economic and environmental repercussions and well into its social, political, and cultural implications—especially the spatial ones. While the 2019 Australian Federal Election results attest to the embedded mythology of coal mining that is still impossible to restrain, CO2 Interiors dismantles and reassembles it, recasting the false narrative of progress, equity, and solidarity that has been projected from within the coal mine interior space. This curated assemblage of coal stories accumulates as evidence to be critically analysed in order to truly achieve a sustainable post-carbon future.

Résumé :

Human beings rely heavily on social communication as one of the major aspects of communication. Language is the most effective means of verbal and nonverbal communication and association. To bridge the communication gap between deaf people communities, and non-deaf people, sign language is widely used. According to the World Federation of the Deaf, there are about 70 million deaf people present around the globe and about 300 sign languages being used. Hence, the structural form of the hand gestures involving visual motions and signs is used as a communication system to help the deaf and speech-impaired community for daily interaction. The aim is to collect a dataset of Urdu sign language (USL) and test it through a machine learning classifier. The overview of the proposed system is divided into four main stages i.e., data collection, data acquisition, training model ad testing model. The USL dataset which is comprised of 1,560 images was created by photographing various hand positions using a camera. This work provides a strategy for automated identification of USL numbers based on a bag-of-words (BoW) paradigm. For classification purposes, support vector machine (SVM), Random Forest, and K-nearest neighbor (K-NN) are used with the BoW histogram bin frequencies as characteristics. The proposed technique outperforms others in number classification, attaining the accuracies of 88%, 90%, and 84% for the random forest, SVM, and K-NN respectively.

Résumé :

The “Earthrise” photograph, taken on the 1968 Apollo 8 mission, became one of the most significant images of the 20th Century. It triggered a profound shift in environmental awareness and the potential for human unity—inspiring the first Earth Day in 1970. Taking inspiration from these events 50 years later, we initiated Project Earthrise at our 2020 annual conference of inVIVO Planetary Health. This builds on the emergent concept of planetary health, which provides a shared narrative to integrate rich and diverse approaches from all aspects of society towards shared solutions to global challenges. The acute catastrophe of the COVID-19 pandemic has drawn greater attention to many other interconnected global health, environmental, social, spiritual, and economic problems that have been underappreciated or neglected for decades. This is accelerating opportunities for greater collaborative action, as many groups now focus on the necessity of a “Great Transition”. While ambitious integrative efforts have never been more important, it is imperative to apply these with mutualistic value systems as a compass, as we seek to make wiser choices. Project Earthrise is our contribution to this important process. This underscores the imperative for creative ecological solutions to challenges in all systems, on all scales with advancing global urbanization in the digital age—for personal, environmental, economic and societal health alike. At the same time, our agenda seeks to equally consider our social and spiritual ecology as it does natural ecology. Revisiting the inspiration of “Earthrise”, we welcome diverse perspectives from across all dimensions of the arts and the sciences, to explore novel solutions and new normative values. Building on academic rigor, we seek to place greater value on imagination, kindness and mutualism as we address our greatest challenges, for the health of people, places and planet.

Résumé :

Drawn from East, West, Central and Southern Africa, the case studies in this special issue build on several decades of important work on photography in Africa. That work has examined colonial photography and postcards, studio work from colonial times to the present, activist photography, photojournalism, and artists who work with photographic images. It has addressed issues of representation, portraiture, aesthetics, self-fashioning, identities, power and status, modernities and materiality, the roles of photographs in governance and everyday politics, and the many histories and modes of social practice around making, showing, viewing, exchanging, manipulating, reproducing, circulating and archiving photographic images. Yet these articles push such issues and topics in exciting directions by addressing new photographic circumstances emerging throughout the world, initiated through new media's technological shifts and possibilities. In Africa, this has fuelled a range of transformations over the last fifteen years or so, transformations that are still unfolding. As the articles show, digital images, mobile phone cameras and social media (also accessed via phone) constitute the potent triad that has set off these transformations.

Résumé :

As margens de rios são componentes do substrato natural das bacias hidrográficas e representam as transformações e o estado de desenvolvimento de um sistema natural, por vezes, imbricado a um sistema social de um dado povo e suas complexas e relevantes formas de ocupação e uso dos solos no tempo espaço. A definição de margens de rios a partir de parâmetros numéricos e/ou de aspectos naturais demonstra-se limitada para representar a complexidade das relações estabelecidas sobre estas áreas, bem como insuficiente para fomentar processos de conservação ou recuperação das margens de rios. O objetivo deste trabalho foi discutir margens de rios a partir dos processos de ocupação e uso dos solos ilustrados em recortes de paisagens de cidades banhadas pelo rio Capibaribe, estado de Pernambuco. Para isso, foram levantadas fotografias e imagens de satélite das margens do rio Capibaribe em cidades e identificadas formas de ocupação e uso, refletindo, cada realidade verificada, segundo uma visão sistêmica das relações Sociedade – Natureza. A paisagem foi utilizada como categoria que fomenta um ponto de partida aos estudos sobre meio ambiente e o espaço com seus elementos constituintes. Acredita-se que as “margens de rios” são áreas componentes do processo de reprodução espacial, sendo marcadas pela coexistência e integração de processos naturais e sociais. Isto significa que sua delimitação em planos de gestão, recuperação e/ou conservação deve pautar-se nas associações deste ambiente com outras subunidades de planejamento desde a pequena cidade, a rede de cidades, a mesorregião e/ou a bacia hidrográfica. A B S T R A C T Riverbanks are components of the natural substrate of river basins and represent the transformations and developmental state of a natural system, sometimes interwoven with a social system of a given people and their complex and relevant forms of occupation and land use in time space. The definition of riverbanks from numerical parameters and / or natural aspects is limited to represent the complexity of the relationships established in these areas, as well as insufficient to foster conservation processes or recovery of riverbanks. The objective of this work was to discuss river banks from the processes of occupation and use of the soils illustrated in the landscapes of cities covered by the Capibaribe river, state of Pernambuco. To this end, photographs and satellite images of the banks of the Capibaribe river were taken in cities and identified forms of occupation and use, reflecting each verified reality, according to a systemic view of Nature - Society relations. The landscape was used as a category that fosters a starting point for studies on the environment and space with its constituent elements. It is believed that the ";river banks"; are areas that are part of the process of spatial reproduction, and are marked by the coexistence and integration of natural and social processes. This means that its delimitation in management, recovery and / or conservation plans should be based on the associations of this environment with other planning subunits from the small town, the network of cities, the mesoregion and / or the catchment area. Key words: River banks; landscape; Capibaribe river.

Résumé :

A Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza (RMF) é composta por quinze municípios, destacando-se entre eles Aquiraz. O município possui uma excelente estância balneária e grande importância devido a seus aspectos socioculturais e históricos. Foi uma das primeiras vilas e primeira capital do Ceará, sendo fundada em 1699 e sede administrativa da capitania do Siará-Grande até o ano de 1726. O crescimento urbano local, que vem ocorrendo de forma desordenada nas últimas décadas, em função, da inserção da indústria do turismo ao longo do litoral cearense, é incompatível com a baixa capacidade de suporte do meio natural, configurando-se insustentável e degradante do meio ambiente. O objetivo deste trabalho foi o planejamento adequado do uso e ocupação do solo, de Aquiraz, e isso inferiu no zoneamento ambiental da área, baseado na gerência dos interesses e das necessidades sociais e econômicas em consonância com a preservação do meio ambiente e as características naturais do município. A pesquisa utilizou-se para atingir o objetivo pretendido, a utilização de imagem de satélites LANDSAT e SPOT (2002) e fotografias aéreas de escala de 1:8000, além de dados secundários, obtidos em órgãos públicos, bibliografia e dados primários, obtidos junto à população local e visita de campo.Palavras-chaves: Zoneamento Ambiental, Uso e Ocupação do Solo, Unidades Ambientais, Município de Aquiraz, Estado do Ceará. Environmental Zoning of Support as a Tool for Planning and Land Use and Occupation of the City of Aquiraz/Ce ABSTRACTThe Metropolitan Region from Fortaleza is composed by fifteen municipalities; among others we can emphasize Aquiraz. It has an excellent watering place and it’s very important due to sociocultural aspects and historics. It was one of the first villages and the first capital of Ceará, being founded in 1699 and the administrative seat of the captaincy of Siará-Grande until 1726. The local urban growth which is occurring in a disorderly few decades later because tourism industry starts to developing throughout cearense coast, its incompatible high with the low capacity from environment, becoming unsustainable and degrading. The objectives of this work was adequate planning for use and occupy Aquiraz soil, and inferred that the environmental zoning area, based on interests economics and social needs therefore to preserve the environment and natural details from this municipality. The survey was used to achieve the desired goal, was used the satellite images from LANDSAT and SPOT (2002) and Aerial photographs of scale 1:8000, beside secondary data obtained from public agencies, bibliographic and primary data obtained with the local population and field visits.

Résumé :

This paper examines the ways in which photographic images can be used in narrative inquiry. After introducing the renewed interest in visual methodology the first section examines the ways in which researchers have utilised the camera or photographic images in research studies that are broadly similar to forms of narrative inquiry such as auto/biography, photographic journals, video diaries and photo-voice. It then draws on the published literature in relation to the author’s own empirical research into everyday photography. Here the extent to which the practices which are part of everyday photography can be seen as forms of story-telling and provide access to both narratives and counter-narratives, are explored. Ideas about memory and identity construction are considered. A critical area of argument centres on the relationship of images to other texts, and asks whether it is possible for photographs to narrate independent of written or oral word. It concludes with some remarks about how photographs can be used in research and as a resource for narrative inquiry. This necessitates a understanding of what it is people do with photographs in everyday life.
