  • Glass Mosaic Tb136
    Glass Mosaic Installation Technical Bulletin Category: Tiling Keywords: Glass Mosaic, Tile, Thin Set, Grout Glass mosaics bring a beautiful look to any surface. Glass Mosaics come in different types, sizes, colors and patterns and are used in residential and commercial projects on backsplashes above sink, bathrooms, showers, and fireplaces. There are 3 different types of glass tile; cast glass tile, fused glass tile, and low- temperature-coated glass tile as per ANSI A137.2 standard. Typically glass mosaics are larger than ¾”x ¾” and smaller than 3”x3”. Many questions have come up on which setting materials to use for a long lasting glass mosaic installation. In this technical bulletin will help you to select the appropriate Merkrete products for setting glass mosaics. Considerations to take before installing glass mosaics: Substrates All substrates should be plumb and true, substrate deviation should not exceed 1/8” in 10’ or 1/16 in 3’. Substrate preparation should be completed following ANSI A108 AN-2 “General Requirements for Sub- surfaces. Substrate should be dry, clean and free from oil, grease, wax, paint, old adhesives, sealers and curing compounds. Any contaminates which inhibit proper bond must be removed. Recommendation for setting: Merkrete Integra - Is a non-abrasive all-in-one adhesive and grout for glass mosaics installations on walls and floors. Integra was developed especially for the installation of mosaics and glass tile of all shapes and sizes with no concerns about thin set color bleed through because the adhesive and the grout are the same color. Merkrete Integra is available in 8 different colors.

This dance, now known as “on 2” mambo, or salsa, for its relationship to the clave, is the first uniquely North American form of vernacular Latino dance on the East Coast. This paper traces the New York mambo’s develop- ment from its beginnings at the Palladium Ballroom through the salsa and hustle years and up to the present time. The current period is characterized by increasing growth, commercialization, codification, and a blending with other modern, urban dance genres such as hip-hop.

  • Technological Approaches in Ceramic Tradition and Privilege of Turkish Tile Art
    Suranaree J. Sci. Technol. Vol. 20 No. 3; July - September 2013 249 TECHNOLOGICAL APPROACHES IN CERAMIC TRADITION AND PRIVILEGE OF TURKISH TILE ART Murat Bayazit* Received: August 22, 2012; Revised: April 18, 2013; Accepted: May 1, 2013 Abstract In the last 2 decades technology has created great developments in both industry and art. Various technological innovations have emerged as a result of numerous researches related primarily to advanced materials. While impressive changes were seen in industrial fields, art has also been influenced by technology. Ceramics, known as the oldest plastic art, has always been affected by both social and industrial changes, because it is both an art and also a science. Ceramics has a wide range of uses in science which are directly related to its applications in industry such as paint, textiles, automotive products, and construction. As an art, ceramics has a very different application including cultural approaches. Art tiles are one of the most outstanding examples of ceramics art. Consisting of specific figures, motifs, and colors, art tiles have a significant place in both Turkish and Islamic art. Technology has never been able to find a way to change the cultural mentality, so this art has protected its privilege for centuries. This study discusses the effects of technology on ceramic art and evaluates the current status of Turkish art tiles. Keywords: Art, technology, Turkish tile art, Çini Introduction Although only electronic materials may come of the technology because of their necessity to mind when the word “technology” is used, in life. it has multiple different meanings. Humans While technology provides facilities in have used technological tools in their daily human life, it also necessarily causes some lives since ancient times.

  • The Miseducation of Hip-Hop Dance: Authenticity, and the Commodification of Cultural Identities
    The Miseducation of Hip-Hop dance: Authenticity, and the commodification of cultural identities. E. Moncell Durden., Assistant Professor of Practice University of Southern California Glorya Kaufman School of Dance Introduction Hip-hop dance has become one of the most popular forms of dance expression in the world. The explosion of hip-hop movement and culture in the 1980s provided unprecedented opportunities to inner-city youth to gain a different access to the “American” dream; some companies saw the value in using this new art form to market their products for commercial and consumer growth. This explosion also aided in an early downfall of hip-hop’s first dance form, breaking. The form would rise again a decade later with a vengeance, bringing older breakers out of retirement and pushing new generations to develop the technical acuity to extraordinary levels of artistic corporeal genius. We will begin with hip-hop’s arduous beginnings. Born and raised on the sidewalks and playgrounds of New York’s asphalt jungle, this youthful energy that became known as hip-hop emerged from aspects of cultural expressions that survived political abandonment, economic struggles, environmental turmoil and gang activity. These living conditions can be attributed to high unemployment, exceptionally organized drug distribution, corrupt police departments, a failed fire department response system, and Robert Moses’ building of the Cross-Bronx Expressway, which caused middle and upper-class residents to migrate North. The South Bronx lost 600,000 jobs and displaced more than 5,000 families. Between 1973 and 1977, and more than 30,000 fires were set in the South Bronx, which gave rise to the phrase “The Bronx is Burning.” This marginalized the black and Latino communities and left the youth feeling unrepresented, and hip-hop gave restless inner-city kids a voice.

  • A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia by Laura
    The Art of the Hustle: A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia by Laura L. Bunting-Hudson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Laura L. Bunting-Hudson All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Art of the Hustle: A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia Laura L. Bunting-Hudson How do rap artists in Bogota, Colombia come together to make music? What is the process they take to commodify their culture? Why are some rappers able to become socially mobile in this process, while others are less so? What is technology’s role in all of this? This ethnography explores those questions, as it carefully documents the strategies utilized by various rap groups in Bogota, Colombia to create social mobility, commoditize products and to create a different vision of modernity within the hip-hop community, as an alternative to the ideals set forth by mainstream Colombian society. Resistance Art Poetry (RAP), is said to have originated in the United States but has become a form of international music. In conducting ethnographic research from December of 2012 to October 2014, I was able to discover how rappers organize themselves politically, how they commoditize their products and distribute them to create various types of social mobilities. In this dissertation, I constructed models to typologize rap groups in Bogota, Colombia, which I call polities of rappers to discuss how these groups come together, take shape, make plans and execute them to reach their business goals.
