Résumé :
Partendo dal presupposto che l'ideale di libertas perpetua, che anima la storia della piů antica Repubblica, implichi per San Marino la responsabilitŕ di ricreare il proprio futuro ad ogni svolta della storia, il saggio ne affronta le implicazioni in una logica conseguente: dalla necessitŕ di reinterpretare la propria identitŕ millenaria nel mondo globalizzato, alla definizione di una nuovaper il Paese; dall'elaborazione di un piano strategico, allo sviluppo delle necessarie capacitŕ esecutive; fino all'attivazione delle leve fondamentali per l'avvio del cambiamento. Č un percorso di strategia quello proposto dall'Autore nella ricerca di una via di uscita dalla crisi, verso un nuovo modello di sviluppo economico competitivo e sostenibile. Facendo uso degli strumenti essenziali di strategia in ambito economico, emerge la proposta di una direzione organica di marcia nel medio-lungo periodo, che diviene riferimento essenziale anche nell'affrontare l'emergenza della crisi nell'immediato.

Résumé :
Il saggio si propone di mostrare la compresenza di aspetti collaborativi e competitivi all'interno della pratica del dialogo. Risalendo al di qua dell'esempio di Socrate, cui si riconosce in qualche modo l'invenzione di una ‘tecnica' del confronto tra interlocutori interessati alla ricerca della veritÀ, l'autrice intende mostrare le radici conflittuali della forma-dialogo e le implicazioni meno rassicuranti della dialettica discorsiva. Il tema del dialogo indica certo l'emergere di una possibilitÀ evolutiva nel cammino politico della civiltÀ: dalle passioni distruttive degli eroi omerici all'impegno a perfezionare se stessi esponendosi a un pacifico confronto. Senza dimenticare, perň, che la natura dell'uomo si rispecchia in molti animali diversi e che il dialogo con lupi e sparvieri resta difficile.

Résumé :
Abstract The dislocation mechanisms behind sagging behavior of autosuspension spring steels are far from being understood due to their complicated microstructures. In this study, systematic cyclic loading tests were carried out on two model materials - industrial pure iron and spheroidized 1045 steel – to understand the mechanisms behind sagging. It is found that it is the different dislocation microstructures that control the cyclic creep behavior of different materials. With iron samples with low mean stress values, higher mean stresses do not trigger cell structure formation mainly due to the little requirement for high plastic strain amplitude and hence the lack of necessity for high dislocation density, and a large number of dislocation interactions through large mobile dislocations. In the case of the 1045 steel samples, the collapse of pre-existent substructures and the movement of newly generated mobile dislocations are the main reasons for the cyclic softening observed. The massive reorganization process of dislocation configurations and the competition between softening and hardening both carry on throughout the entire cycling process, but the softening process is found to be the predominant factor.

Résumé :
Turnover is the rotation of workers around the labor market; between firms, jobs, and occupations; and between the states of employment and unemployment.1 “In-house engineering,” “revolving door policy,” and “management by turnover,” are a few of the many colorful and euphemistic terms used to describe this organizational phenomenon. By whatever name or form, labor turnover is one of the most significant causes of declining productivity and sagging morale in both the public and private sectors. Management theorists say it lies behind the failure of U. S. employee productivity to keep pace with foreign competition.2

Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) is a competitive solution for the durability of reinforced structures. This paper aims to observe moment redistribution behavior occurring due to flexural and shear loading in GFRP reinforced continuous concrete beams. A rectangular cross-section was adopted in this study with dimensions of 200 mm in width and 300 mm in depth with a constant shear span-to-depth ratio of 3. The reinforcement ratio for the top and bottom were equal at sagging and hogging moment regions. A finite element model was created using ANSYS and validated with the existing experimental results in the literature review. Based on the literature review, the parametric study was conducted on twelve beam specimens to evaluate the influence of concrete compressive strength, transversal GFRP stirrups ratio, and longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the redistribution of the moment in beams. Several codes and guidelines adopted different analytical models. The CSA S806 adopted the modified compression field theory in predicting the shear capacity of the simply supported beams. Recently, various researchers encountered several factors and modifications to account for concrete contribution, longitudinal and transverse reinforcement. A comparison between the predicting shear capacity of the generated finite element model and the analytical model and the existing data from literature was held. The generated finite element model showed a good agreement with experimental results while the beam specimens failed in shear after undergoing significant moment redistribution from hogging to sagging moment region.

The generated finite element model showed a good agreement with the experimental results, while the beam specimens failed in shear after undergoing significant moment redistribution from hogging to sagging moment region. The moment distribution observed about 21.5% from FEM of beam specimen GN-1.2-0.48-d, while the experimental results achieved 24% at failure load. For high strength concrete presented in beam specimen GH-1.2-0.63-d, the result showed about 20.2% moment distribution, compared to that achieved experimentally of 23% at failure load.

Résumé :
Abstract The diaphragm wall and the open caisson represent two main competitive technologies used in the construction of underground objects. In modern times, diaphragm walls are primarily applied for large-size objects, with open caissons being preferred in the case of small-sized ones. Currently, objects of this type are designed mainly for sewage treatment plants and detention reservoirs. Their construction involves highly labour-intensive processes. During the execution of works unforeseen negative effects are observed to occur. During the underground objects construction the most common phenomena are: deviations from the vertical (tilt), sagging, sinking below the designed level, cracking, scratches or leakage through the wall. The purpose of the paper is to classify undesired risk factors emerging in the process of underground objects construction and selection of the optimal technological and material solution for municipal facilities. The implementation of this task involved the selection of Multi-Criteria Decision Making methods, taking into account the cause-effect rating, as the mathematical apparatus. The Ratio Estimation in Magnitudes or deciBells to Rate Alternatives which are Non-DominaTed (REMBRANDT) method was applied. The research proved that it is possible to analytically assess unforeseen risk factors conducive to emergency situations during the implementation of underground objects, using the REMBRANDT method.

Résumé :
This study investigated the domestic vessel onboard trainees perceived seamanship competencies vis-à-vis the minimum requirements of STCW 1978 as amended in the Maritime Education College of the University of Cebu Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue. Categorically, this study determined the respondents' profile in terms of age, gender, type of domestic vessel boarded, and year completed academic requirements. Furthermore, it defined the perceived deck function 2 technical competencies, the relationship between the profile and the perceived competencies of the cadets, the significant difference in their technical competencies when grouped according to profiles, and the conclusion, recommendations, and the proposed action plan. The study used the descriptive-correlational method, and one hundred BSMT offshore domestic cadets were chosen as respondents. The study was conducted at the University of Cebu Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue. The researchers utilized an STCW-based checklist to gather the data needed. Frequency count, percent, Chi-square, and Kruskal-Wallis were used to treat the data collated. The study revealed a notable gap between the perceived competencies in ensuring satisfactory trim, stability, hogging, and sagging. It also determined a significant relationship between profile and gender and the perceived competencies. Moreover, the study showed no significant difference between the technical competencies when grouped according to profile. The results concluded that the success of producing quality seafarers is the primary responsibility of the maritime institute to ensure a globally competitive STCW '95 (Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping) compliant maritime education graduates.

Wilson, Brayton F. « Branches versus stems in woody plants : control of branch diameter growth and angle ». Canadian Journal of Botany 76, no 11 (1 novembre 1998) : 1852–56. http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/b98-156.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
The results of three studies at different stages of branch development demonstrated the importance of apical control of diameter growth in both stem formation and branch angle. Diameter growth is controlled by competition between branches and the stem for branch-produced photosynthate. Apical control of branch angle occurs only in species that can produce differential growth stresses. In those species, upward bending is largely regulated by the amount of branch diameter growth. The first study followed stem formation from current shoots in Kalmia latifolia L., a shrub without terminal buds or apical control of branch angle. When several current or older shoots were competing, the longest, most distal lateral shoot usually became the stem. Shoot angle was poorly correlated with eventual dominance. A more proximal lateral shoot on the underside of a leaning parent became the longest, dominant lateral in 24% of the parent shoots. The second study used stem girdles to test the hypothesis that the subjacent stem competes with the branch for branch-produced photosynthate. Results from Pinus strobus L. supported the hypothesis, but results from Betula lenta L. and Acer rubrum L. did not. The third study removed apical control from branches of six forest-shrub species by cutting off the stem above the branch. Branches of all species increased diameter growth after cutting the stem, but only branches of Ilex verticillata (L.) Gray, Hamamelis virginiana L., and Cornus amomum Mill. developed differential growth stress and bent upward. Treated branches of Gaylusaccia baccata (Wang.) K. Koch, Viburnum cassinoides L., and K. latifolia sagged as much as controls.Key words: apical control, diameter growth, branch angle, growth stress, reaction wood.

Résumé :
Background: In patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP), the efficacy of ATP-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has resulted in treatment-free remission (TFR) as a primary treatment goal for those with a sustained deep molecular response (DMR). However, most patients treated with imatinib fail to achieve a sustained DMR, meaning that they cannot benefit from TFR. Asciminib is a potent and specific inhibitor of BCR-ABL1. Unlike BCR-ABL1 TKIs that target the ATP binding site, asciminib binds to the myristate pocket of ABL1. Preclinical data showed that the combination of asciminib with ATP-competitive TKIs may provide more potent BCR-ABL1 inhibition and prevent emergence of resistance mutations (Wylie et al. Nature. 2017;543:733-737). In an ongoing phase 1 study (NCT02081378), asciminib demonstrated clinical activity and was well tolerated as a single agent (Hughes et al. Blood. 2016;128 [abstract 625]). In the same study, asciminib in combination with imatinib showed promising preliminary efficacy and a good safety profile in patients resistant/intolerant of ≥2 prior TKIs (Cortes et al. HemaSphere. 2019;3(S1) [abstract S388]). These findings informed the dose of asciminib to be further evaluated in combination with imatinib. An ongoing phase 3 study (NCT03106779) is evaluating asciminib vs bosutinib in patients previously treated with ≥2 ATP-binding site TKIs (Mauro et al. J Clin Oncol. 2019;37 [abstract TPS7070]). Here, we describe the ASCiminib add-on 4-arm study evaluating MOlecular REsponse (ASC4MORE) in patients. This is a phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy of adding asciminib to ongoing imatinib therapy in patients with CML-CP who have not achieved DMR with long-term frontline imatinib (CABL001E2201; NCT03578367). Methods: Study participants are aged ≥18 years, have CML-CP, and have been treated with frontline imatinib for ≥12 months. Study entry requires patients to be receiving imatinib 400 mg once daily (QD) at randomization, have BCR-ABL1 transcript levels in the range of ≤1% to >0.01% on the International Scale (IS), no prior achievement of MR4 (BCR-ABL1IS ≤0.01%) confirmed by two consecutive tests, and no prior treatment failure. Overall, ~80 patients will be randomized 1:1:1:1 to one of four arms (Figure): either asciminib 40 mg QD or 60 mg QD added to imatinib 400 mg QD; continued treatment with imatinib 400 mg QD; or switch to nilotinib 300 mg twice daily. Study treatment will continue until treatment resistance or intolerance, or up to 96 weeks after the last randomized patient has begun treatment. The primary objective of this study is to assess whether asciminib add-on to imatinib is more effective than imatinib continuation; the primary endpoint is the rate of MR4.5 (BCR-ABL1IS ≤0.0032%) at 48 weeks. Secondary objectives include: to estimate the efficacy of switch to nilotinib; to estimate the difference in efficacy between asciminib add-on to imatinib and switch to nilotinib; and to characterize the safety of asciminib add-on to imatinib. Exploratory objectives include TFR eligibility at the end of the study and patient-reported outcomes. Patients in the imatinib continuation arm who have not achieved MR4.5 at 48 weeks may cross over to receive add-on asciminib. This study is ongoing, with 23 patients randomized as of 22 July 2019.

AbstractIf the Ukrainian economy is to be successfully restructured going forward, a restructured railway system will have to be part of the picture. This paper begins with a discussion of the crucial role that the Ukrainian railway plays in the Ukrainian economy. We follow with a survey of the world experience with railways restructuring: a large number of countries have already undertaken the task of converting sagging government-owned monopoly railways into more dynamic and competitive transport enterprises, and their experience in very diverse settings may have important lessons to offer. We then examine the current state of rail reform plans in Ukraine. We conclude with discussions of alternative paths forward that seem most likely to be successful in Ukraine, based on both the experience elsewhere and the country’s current situation.

Résumé :
Abstract The increasing availability of affordable finite element modeling software and computational fluid dynamics codes have given today’s sailing yacht designers tools that, in the past, were only available to designers of yachts competing in the most high-profile events. This paper provides a case study on the structural design of the International America’s Cup Class Yacht Stars & Stripes USA-34, which won the U.S. defender series, the Citizen Cup, leading up to the 29th America’s Cup competition in 1995. The authors have recently been able to publicly share this information, and feel that the problem-solving approach is of direct use to many of today’s designers. The design approach is twofold, the first being the use of Finite Element Analysis to minimize drag-inducing local deformations. Over 80 finite element models were analyzed with varying configurations, starting with an initial baseline structure based on the previous boat, USA-11. These structural improvements reduced local hull deflection from5 to 6 mm per meter on the previous design to less than 1 mm per meter on the USA-34 design. The second part of the design approach isolates the hydrodynamic effects of global bending under rig tension. Illustrative tank tests are provided to demonstrate how the global sagging of the hull, caused by rig tension, can often increase the resistance of a yacht (especially one built for racing). As part of a series of steps taken to mitigate the effect of rig tension, a novel design was developed, with soft patches and flexible structure to permit low-cost modification of the hull in the boatyard, giving approximately a 225mmincrease in waterline length and 75 mm reduction in beam if needed—a modification that was made to USA-34 prior to winning the finals of the Citizen Cup, and at a cost of under $500. The reduction of drag-inducing local hull form deformations, and the development of the cost-saving hull modification concept, demonstrate how a creative designer can take advantage of the finite element modeling tools that are now widely available.

This essay aims to show some approaches in the understanding of the lifelong learning concepts, knowledge, competence, from a literature review with the contributions of Dewey, Bruner, Freire, Schon and Tardif among others. Coming from theoretical studies carried out by Italian researchers and a Brazilian researcher, through their Research Centers/Laboratories and international collaborative partnership between Brazilian and Italian Universities, this text addresses from the undertake scientific literature, key terms which support the held studies. From the considerations, it is highlighted the regular understanding around lifelong learning concept, which considers the human condition for the permanent learning and valuing experiences from different contexts, such as family and school (basic and higher education). In view of this, the approximation between the concepts of competence and knowledge was also highlighted, recognized and valued as fundamental elements for the learning process and for the development of critical and reflexive thinking, and consequently transforming daily problems and challenges. The task reinforces the research network, pursuing the improving theoretical knowledge to subsidize the scientific research production in the educational field, besides Brazilian or Italian academic walls.SommarioQuesto saggio ha l’obiettivo di presentare gli approcci sulla definizione dei concetti di apprendimento permanente, saperi e competenze, partendo da una revisione della letteratura, con i contributi,tra gli altri, di Dewey, Bruner, Freire, Schon e Tardif. A partire dall’analisi teorica condotta da ricercatori italiani e una ricercatrice brasiliana, mediante i loro centri di ricerca/laboratório, e l’accordo di collaborazione internazionale tra l’università brasiliana e italiana, questo testo affronta, in base alla letteratura scientifica, i termini chiave che supportano gli studi realizzati. Dalle argomentazioni espresse, emerge la posizione comune sul concetto di apprendimento permanente o per tutta la vita, che considera l’approccio umanistico e la valorizzazione delle esperienze provenienti da diversi contesti come la famiglia e la scuola (in particolare di base e superiore). In questa prospettiva, si mette in evidenzia anche l'approssimazione semantica tra i concetti di competenza e saperi, riconosciuti e valorizzati come elementi fondamentali per il processo di apprendimento e per lo sviluppo del pensiero critico e riflessivo, e di conseguenza trasformatore rispetto ai problemi e alle sfide quotidiane della vita. Il presente contributo rafforza la rete di ricerca congiunta, con l'obiettivo di migliorare le conoscenze teoriche per supportare lo sviluppo di ricerche in campo educativo, al di là delle mura accademiche brasiliane o italiane.Keywords: Lifelong learning, Knowledge, Strategic competence, Reflexive competence.Parole chiave: Apprendimento permanente, Saperi, Competenze strategiche, Competenze di riflessione.Palavras-chave: Aprendizagem permanente, Conhecimento, Competência estratégica, Competência reflexiva.ReferencesALBERICI, A.

Résumé :
Working drawings are produced, when a house is designed, to envisage an imagined building. They are a tangible representation of an object that has no tangible existence. These working drawings act as a manual for constructing the house; they represent that which is to be built. The house comes into being, therefore, via this set of drawings. This is known as documentation. However, these drawings record the house at an ideal moment in time; they capture the house in stasis. They do not represent the future life of the house, the changes and traces the inhabitants make upon a space, nor do they document the path of the person, the arc of their actions, within the space of the house. Other types of documentation of the house allow these elements to be included. Documentation that is produced after-the-event, that interprets ‘the existing’, is absent from discourses on documentation; the realm of post factum documentation is a less examined form of documentation. This paper investigates post factum documentation of the house, and the alternative ways of making, producing and, therefore, thinking about, the house that it offers. This acknowledges the body in the space of architecture, and the inhabitation of space, and as a dynamic process. This then leads to the potential of the‘model of an action’ representing the motion and temporality inherent within the house. Architecture may then be seen as that which encloses the inhabitant. The word ‘document’ refers to a record or evidence of events. It implies a chronological sequence: the document comes after-the-event, that is, it is post factum. Within architecture, however, the use of the word documentation, predominantly, refers to working drawings that are made to ‘get to’ a building, drawings being the dominant representation within architecture. Robin Evans calls this notion, of architecture being brought into existence through drawing, the principle of reversed directionality (Evans 1997, 1989). Although it may be said that these types of drawings document the idea, or document the imagined reality of the building, their main emphasis, and reading, is in getting to something. In this case, the term documentation is used, not due to the documents’ placement within a process, of coming after the subject-object, but in referring to the drawings’ role. Other architectural drawings do exist that are a record of what is seen, but these are not the dominant drawing practice within architecture. Documentation within architecture regards the act of drawing as that process upon which the object is wholly dependent for its coming into existence. Drawing is defined as the pre-eminent methodology for generation of the building; drawings are considered the necessary initial step towards the creation of the 1:1 scale object. During the designing phase, the drawings are primary, setting out an intention. Drawings, therefore, are regarded as having a prescriptive endpoint rather than being part of an open-ended improvisation. Drawings, in getting to a building, draw out something, the act of drawing searches for and uncovers the latent design, drawing it into existence. They are seen as getting to the core of the design. Drawings display a technique of making and are influenced by their medium. Models, in getting to a building, may be described in the same way. The act of modelling, of making manifest two-dimensional sketches into a three-dimensional object, operates similarly in possessing a certain power in assisting the design process to unfurl. Drawing, as recording, alters the object. This act of drawing is used to resolve, and to edit, by excluding and omitting, as much as by including, within its page. Models similarly made after-the-fact are interpretive and consciously aware of their intentions. In encapsulating the subject-object, the model as documentation is equally drawing out meaning. This type of documentation is not neutral, but rather involves interpretation and reflection through representational editing. Working drawings record the house at an ideal moment in time: at the moment the builders leave the site and the owners unlock the front door. These drawings capture the house in stasis. There is often the notion that until the owners of a new house move in, the house has been empty, unlived in. But the life of the house cannot be fixed to any one starting point; rather it has different phases of life from conception to ruin. With working drawings being the dominant representation of the house, they exclude much; both the life of the house before this act of inhabitation, and the life that occurs after it. The transformations that occur at each phase of construction are never shown in a set of working drawings. When a house is built, it separates itself from the space it resides within: the domain of the house is marked off from the rest of the site. The house has a skin of a periphery, that inherently creates an outside and an inside (Kreiser 88). As construction continues, there is a freedom in the structure which closes down; potential becomes prescriptive as choices are made and embodied in material. The undesignedness of the site, that exists before the house is planned, becomes lost once the surveyors’ pegs are in place (Wakely 92). Next, the skeletal frame of open volumes becomes roofed, and then becomes walled, and walking through the frame becomes walking through doorways. One day an interior is created. The interior and exterior of the house are now two different things, and the house has definite edges (Casey 290). At some point, the house becomes lockable, its security assured through this act of sealing. It is this moment that working drawings capture. Photographs comprise the usual documentation of houses once they are built, and yet they show no lived-in-ness, no palimpsest of occupancy. They do not observe the changes and traces the inhabitants make upon a space, nor do they document the path of the person, the arc of their actions, within the space of the house. American architects and artists Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio have written of these traces of the everyday that punctuate floor and wall surfaces: the intersecting rings left by coffee glasses on a tabletop, the dust under a bed that becomes its plan analog when the bed is moved, the swing etched into the floor by a sagging door. (Diller & Scofidio 99) It is these marks, these traces, that are omitted from the conventional documentation of a built house. To examine an alternative way of documenting, and to redress these omissions, a redefinition of the house is needed. A space can be delineated by its form, its edges, or it can be defined by the actions that are performed, and the connections between people that occur, within it. To define the house by what it encapsulates, rather than being seen as an object in space, allows a different type of documentation to be employed. By defining a space as that which accommodates actions, rooms may be delineated by the reach of a person, carved out by the actions of a person, as though they are leaving a trace as they move, a windscreen wiper of living, through the repetition of an act. Reverse directional documentation does not directly show the actions that take place within a house; we must infer these from the rooms’ fittings and fixtures, and the names on the plan. In a similar way, Italo Calvino, in Invisible Cities, defines a city by the relationships between its inhabitants, rather than by its buildings: in Ersilia, to establish the relationships that sustain the city’s life, the inhabitants stretch strings from the corners of the houses, white or black or grey or black-and-white according to whether they mark a relationship of blood, of trade, authority, agency. When the strings become so numerous that you can no longer pass among them, the inhabitants leave: the houses are dismantled; only the strings and their supports remain … Thus, when travelling in the territory of Ersilia, you come upon the ruins of the abandoned cities without the walls which do not last, without the bones of the dead which the wind rolls away: spiderwebs of intricate relationships seeking a form. (Calvino 62) By defining architecture by that which it encapsulates, form or materiality may be given to the ‘spiderwebs of intricate relationships’. Modelling the actions that are performed in the space of architecture, therefore, models the architecture. This is referred to as a model of an action. In examining the model of an action, the possibilities of post factum documentation of the house may be seen. The Shinkenchiku competition The Plan-Less House (2006), explored these ideas of representing a house without using the conventional plan to do so. A suggested alternative was to map the use of the house by its inhabitants, similar to the idea of the model of an action. The house could be described by a technique of scanning: those areas that came into contact with the body would be mapped. Therefore, the representation of the house is not connected with spatial division, that is, by marking the location of walls, but rather with its use by its inhabitants. The work of Diller and Scofidio and Allan Wexler and others explores this realm. One inquiry they share is the modelling of the body in the space of architecture: to them, the body is inseparable from the conception of space. By looking at their work, and that of others, three different ways of representing this inhabitation of space are seen. These are: to represent the objects involved in a particular action, or patterns of movement, that occurs in the space, in a way that highlights the action; to document the action itself; or to document the result of the action. These can all be defined as the model of an action. The first way, the examination of the body in a space via an action’s objects, is explored by American artist Allan Wexler, who defines architecture as ‘choreography without a choreographer, structuring its inhabitant’s movements’ (Galfetti 22). In his project ‘Crate House’ (1981), Wexler examines the notion of the body in a space via an action’s objects. He divided the house into its basic activities: bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room. Each of these is then defined by their artefacts, contained in their own crate on wheels, which is rolled out when needed. At any point in time, the entire house becomes the activity due to its crate: when a room such as the kitchen is needed, that crate is rolled in through one of the door openings. When the occupant is tired, the entire house becomes a bedroom, and when the occupant is hungry, it becomes a kitchen … I view each crate as if it is a diorama in a natural history museum — the pillow, the spoon, the flashlight, the pot, the nail, the salt. We lose sight of everyday things. These things I isolate, making them sculpture: their use being theatre. (Galfetti 42–6) The work of Andrea Zittel explores similar ideas. ‘A–Z Comfort Unit’ (1994), is made up of five segments, the centrepiece being a couch/bed, which is surrounded by four ancillary units on castors. These offer a library, kitchen, home office and vanity unit. The structure allows the lodger never to need to leave the cocoon-like bed, as all desires are an arm’s reach away. The ritual of eating a meal is examined in Wexler’s ‘Scaffold Furniture’ (1988). This project isolates the components of the dining table without the structure of the table. Instead, the chair, plate, cup, glass, napkin, knife, fork, spoon and lamp are suspended by scaffolding. Their connection, rather than being that of objects sharing a tabletop, is seen to be the (absent) hand that uses them during a meal; the act of eating is highlighted. In these examples, the actions performed within a space are represented by the objects involved in the action. A second way of representing the patterns of movement within a space is to represent the action itself. The Japanese tea ceremony breaks the act of drinking into many parts, separating and dissecting the whole as a way of then reassembling it as though it is one continuous action. Wexler likens this to an Eadweard Muybridge film of a human in motion (Galfetti 31). This one action is then housed in a particular building, so that when devoid of people, the action itself still has a presence. Another way of documenting the inhabitation of architecture, by drawing the actions within the space, is time and motion studies, such as those of Rene W.P. Leanhardt (Diller & Scofidio 40–1). In one series of photographs, lights were attached to a housewife’s wrists, to demonstrate the difference in time and effort required in the preparation of a dinner prepared entirely from scratch in ninety minutes, and a pre-cooked, pre-packaged dinner of the same dish, which took only twelve minutes. These studies are lines of light, recorded as line drawings on a photograph of the kitchen. They record the movement of the person in the room of the action they perform, but they also draw the kitchen in a way conventional documentation does not. A recent example of the documentation of an action was undertaken by Asymptote and the students at Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture in their exhibition at the Venice Biennale of Architecture in 2000. A gymnast moving through the interior space of the pavilion was recorded using a process of digitisation and augmentation. Using modelling procedures, the spatial information was then reconstructed to become a full-scale architectural re-enactment of the gymnast’s trajectory through the room (Feireiss 40). This is similar to a recent performance by Australian contemporary dance company Chunky Move, called ‘Glow’. Infra-red video tracking took a picture of the dancer twenty-five times a second. This was used to generate shapes and images based on the movements of a solo dancer, which were projected onto the floor and the dancer herself. In the past, when the company has used DVDs or videos, the dancer has had to match what they were doing to the projection. This shifts the technology to following the dancer (Bibby 3). A third way of representing the inhabitation of architecture is to document the result of an action. Raoul Bunschoten writes of the marks of a knife being the manifestation of the act of cutting, as an analogy: incisions imply the use of a cutting tool. Together, cuts and cutting tool embrace a special condition. The actual movement of the incision is fleeting, the cut or mark stays behind, the knife moves on, creating an apparent discontinuity … The space of the cut is a reminder of the knife, its shape and its movements: the preparation, the swoop through the air, the cutting, withdrawal, the moving away. These movements remain implicitly connected with the cut as its imaginary cause, as a mnemonic programme about a hand holding a knife, incising a surface, severing skin. (Bunschoten 40) As a method of documenting actions, the paintings of Jackson Pollack can be seen as a manifestation of an act. In the late 1940s, Pollack began to drip paint onto a canvas laid flat on the floor; his tools were sticks and old caked brushes. This process clarified his work, allowing him to walk around it and work from all four sides. Robert Hughes describes it as ‘painting “from the hip” … swinging paintstick in flourishes and frisks that required an almost dancelike movement of the body’ (Hughes 154). These paintings made manifest Pollack’s gestures. As his arm swung in space, the dripping paint followed that arc, to be preserved on a flat plane as pictorial space (Hughes 262). Wexler, in another study, recorded the manifestation of an action. He placed a chair in a one-room building. It was attached to lengths of timber that extended outdoors through slots in the walls of the building. As the chair moved inside the building, its projections carved grooves in the ground outside. As the chair moved in a particular pattern, deeper grooves were created: ‘Eventually, the occupant of the chair has no choice in his movement; the architecture moves him.’ (Galfetti 14) The pattern of movement creates a result, which in turn influences the movement. By redefining architecture by what it encapsulates rather than by the enclosure itself, allows architecture to be documented by the post factum model of an action that occurs in that space. This leads to the exploration of architecture, formed by the body within it, since the documentation and representation of architecture starts to affect the reading of architecture. Architecture may then be seen as that which encloses the inhabitant. The documentation of the body and the space it makes concerns the work of the Hungarian architect Imre Makovecz. His exploration is of the body and the space it makes. Makovecz, and a circle of like-minded architects and artists, embarked on a series of experiments analysing the patterns of human motion and subsequently set up a competition based around the search for a minimum existential space. This consisted of mapping human motion in certain spatial conditions and situations. Small light bulbs were attached to points on the limbs and joints and photographed, creating a series of curves and forms. This led to a competition called ‘Minimal Space’ (1971–2), in which architects, artists and designers were invited to consider a minimal space for containing the human body, a new notion of personal containment. Makovecz’s own response took the form of a bell-like capsule composed of a double shell expressing its presence and location in both time and space (Heathcote 120). Vito Acconci, an artist turned architect by virtue of his installation work, explored this notion of enclosure in his work (Feireiss 38). In 1980 Acconci began his series of ‘self-erecting architectures’, vehicles or instruments involving one or more viewers whose operation erected simple buildings (Acconci & Linker 114). In his project ‘Instant House’ (1980), a set of walls lies flat on the floor, forming an open cruciform shape. By sitting in the swing in the centre of this configuration, the visitor activates an apparatus of cables and pulleys causing walls to rise and form a box-like house. It is a work that explores the idea of enclosing, of a space being something that has to be constructed, in the same way for example one builds up meaning (Reed 247–8). This documentation of architecture directly references the inhabitation of architecture. The post factum model of architecture is closely linked to the body in space and the actions it performs. Examining the actions and movement patterns within a space allows the inhabitation process to be seen as a dynamic process. David Owen describes the biological process of ‘ecopoiesis’: the process of a system making a home for itself. He describes the building and its occupants jointly as the new system, in a system of shaping and reshaping themselves until there is a tolerable fit (Brand 164). The definition of architecture as being that which encloses us, interests Edward S. Casey: in standing in my home, I stand here and yet feel surrounded (sheltered, challenged, drawn out, etc.) by the building’s boundaries over there. A person in this situation is not simply in time or simply in space but experiences an event in all its engaging and unpredictable power. In Derrida’s words, ‘this outside engages us in the very thing we are’, and we find ourselves subjected to architecture rather than being the controlling subject that plans or owns, uses or enjoys it; in short architecture ‘comprehends us’. (Casey 314) This shift in relationship between the inhabitant and architecture shifts the documentation and reading of the exhibition of architecture. Casey’s notion of architecture comprehending the inhabitant opens the possibility for an alternate exhibition of architecture, the documentation of that which is beyond the inhabitant’s direction. Conventional documentation shows a quiescence to the house. Rather than attempting to capture the flurry — the palimpsest of occupancy — within the house, it is presented as stilled, inert and dormant. In representing the house this way, a lull is provided, fostering a steadiness of gaze: a pause is created, within which to examine the house. However, the house is then seen as object, rather than that which encapsulates motion and temporality. Defining, and thus documenting, the space of architecture by its actions, extends the perimeter of architecture. No longer is the house bounded by its doors and walls, but rather by the extent of its patterns of movement. Post factum documentation allows this altering of the definition of architecture, as it includes the notion of the model of an action. By appropriating, clarifying and reshaping situations that are relevant to the investigation of post factum documentation, the notion of the inhabitation of the house as a definition of architecture may be examined. This further examines the relationship between architectural representation, the architectural image, and the image of architecture. References Acconci, V., and K. Linker. Vito Acconci.
