The critical approach of 1 new museology in the late 20th century launched a museum practice. The museum invited us to be com- systematic revision of the social and epistemological role pletely free in our approach to the task, and at first we museums play in contemporary culture. New museology highly increased, or at least required, the self-reflexivity deemed it as a double task. On the one hand, there was of cultural displays, however, an increase in reflexivity a chronological exhibition of partly folk, partly artistic, does not involve, in a self-evident way, an increase of intensified experience, which became crucial to our professional and industrial exhibition materials, under contemporary life, especially in the perspective of the title of The living tradition of ryijy – Finnish rugs from somaesthetics. Thus, more recent museological and curatorial approaches, oriented according to the a private collection. On the other hand, the bustle of the corporeal turn in philosophy and social sciences, Design Week and the freshness of art students’ creativity emphasize the effects and consequences of the sensorial range in use within cultural displays. -

Musical Evolution and Human Migration
MUSICAL EVOLUTION AND HUMAN MIGRATION MUSICAL EVOLUTION AND HUMAN MIGRATION: CLASSIFICATION, QUANTIFICATION, AND APPLICATION By PATRICK E. SAVAGE, B.A.(Hons) A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science McMaster University © Copyright by Patrick E. Savage, August 2011 MASTER OF SCIENCE (2011) McMaster University (Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Musical evolution and human migration: Classification, quantification, and application AUTHOR: Patrick E. Savage, B.A. (Hons) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Steven Brown NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 76 ii Abstract Musical evolution and human migration: Classification, quantification, and application Patrick E. Savage Master of Science Depratment of Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour McMaster University 2011 The cross-cultural study of music is important to our understanding of the evolution of human biological and cultural diversity. Early comparative musicologists failed to develop rigorous scientific methods for studying this, and the modern-day fields of music cognition and ethnomusicology still lack such methods. In this thesis, I describe our attempts to design new methods for classifying and quantifying cross-cultural musical diversity and to apply these methods to the study of musical evolution and migration. Using a new method of classifying songs, we analyzed 421 songs from 16 indigenous tribes in Taiwan and the Philippines. We found striking parallels between musical and genetic diversity, both in the degree of diversity found within each culture and in the patterns of similarities between cultures. These findings suggest that music may be subject to similar processes of evolution and migration as are genes. A new, multidisciplinary, and scientifically-grounded comparative musicology may thus provide a new line of evidence to complement and integrate existing research into the complex relationship between music, biology, and culture. -
Plural Subjectivity in Stargate SG-1
Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies (LLIDS) ISSN: 2547-0044 ellids.com/archives/2020/07/3.4-Ferebee.pdf CC Attribution-No Derivatives 4.0 International License www.ellids.com “Pain in Someone Else’s Body”: Plural Subjectivity in Stargate SG-1 K.M. Ferebee Abstract Lennard Davis, in his work on visualizing the disabled body, argues that at root the body is inherently and always already fragmented. The unified “whole body” is, therefore, hallucinatory in nature—an imaginary figure through which the body’s multiplicity is repressed. There is much in this view that is consonant with posthumanism, which so often seeks to destabilize the “whole” and singular one in favor of the multiple, the fragmentary, and the hybrid. Yet despite these considerations of the body as fragmentary, little attention has been paid to the value of considering the body not only as fragmentary, but also as potential fragment. What might we learn by rejecting anthropocentric assumptions about the body-mind’s inherent completeness, and exploring the radically plural ontologies offered by visions of shared, joint, or group body-minds? This paper turns to science fiction as a source of such visions, considering depictions of symbiotic and hive minds through the non-traditional models of ontology and agency. While science fiction has traditionally represented plural being as a troubling and fearful injury to wholeness, this paper aims to highlight the symbiotic Tok’ra1 of television series Stargate SG-1 as a model of excess being that not only challenges the naturalization of the “complete” body, but also asks us to interrogate presumed boundaries between self and other. -

Concept Space in Holocaust Research
Janine Fubel, Alexandra Klei, Katrin Stoll, Annika Wienert: „Space in Holocaust Research“ “Space in Holocaust Research”. An International, Interdisciplinary Conference Hamburg, 23 – 26 March 2020 Aim and Objectives “Space in Holocaust Research” is the first conference in Germany to examine ‘space’ as a central category of Holocaust research from a theoretical and methodological perspective. It is conceptualized and organized by Janine Fubel (Berlin), Alexandra Klei (Hamburg/Berlin), Katrin Stoll (Warsaw), and Annika Wienert (Warsaw). The conference is a co-operation between the German Historical Institute Warsaw and the Institute for the History of the German Jews in Hamburg. The overarching goal of the conference is to foster interdisciplinary Holocaust Studies, a research field that as of yet has no institutional framework in German academia. The project takes as its point of departure the discussions about the ‘spatial turn’ that have taken place in the humanities since the 1980s. In the course of these discussions, an understanding of space beyond Newton’s container model has gained acceptance. Space is now understood as a process and perceived in relational terms, as something that is socially produced and socially effective. The project combines inter- and transdisciplinary discussions of a spatial turn in the humanities with recent research on the Holocaust and its legacy. Such a synthesis is still lacking. The paradigm of space will allow for cross-disciplinary discussions on central issues of Holocaust research and for a prolific integration of new approaches. Integrating various disciplines will enable a critical analysis of terms as well as of theoretical and methodological questions. While references to space, place and sites have become an integral part in works dealing with the history of the Holocaust and its legacy, a metaphorical way of speaking has predominated thus far. -
Ethnochoreology As a Mediating Perspective in Irish Dance Studies
Catherine E. Foley Ethnochoreology as a Mediating Perspective in Irish Dance Studies Up until the 1980s, dance in Ireland existed as an important human activity, engaged in for various reasons: socialization, entertainment, competition, per- formance, tourism, ceremonial occasions, and so on. It was not, however, re- searched and examined on a par with other fields of study within the social sciences. From the 1980s on, however, the academic study of dance within the context of culture increasingly gained ground in the West, due to the influence of a number of anthropologists in the United States interested in human move- ment studies.1 Academicians also began to note the work of ethnochoreologists in Europe who, since the 1960s, had been involved in field research and studies of dance in their respective cultures.2 Dance and the role that it played—together with the meaning that it embodied within diverse societies around the world— gradually became a significant field of research and study. Scholars within mul- tidisciplinary fields of study—including anthropology, ethnochoreology, eth- nomusicology, dance ethnology, sociology, philosophy, cultural studies, cultural geography and feminist scholarship—argued for the significance of dance and the body as a way of illuminating and understanding issues relating to human 1.

Emergence of Ethnochoreology Internationally: the Janković Sisters, Maud Karpeles, and Gertrude Kurath
Elsie Ivancich Dunin Emergence of Ethnochoreology... DOI: 10.2298/MUZ1417197D UDK: 394.3:793.3 39:929 Јанковић Љ. 39:929 Јанковић Д. Emergence of Ethnochoreology Internationally: The Janković sisters, Maud Karpeles, and Gertrude Kurath Elsie Ivancich Dunin1 University of California (Los Angeles) Abstract A fifty-year (1962–2012) period has been shown as a history of ethnochoreology supported by living memories of members of the International Council for Traditional Music (ICTM) Study Group on Ethnochoreology. Recently uncovered and juxtapositioned correspondence of three predecessors within earlier years of the International Folk Music Council (IFMC) broadens the history. This article reveals the emergence of ethnochoreology during the 1950s with publications of the two Janković sisters in Serbia with that of Gertrude Kurath in the United States, alongside correspondence with Maud Karpeles, the unheralded founder of the IFMC. Keywords ethnochoreology, Janković sisters, Gertrude Kurath, Maud Karpeles, IFMC (International Folk Music Council) Introduction The publications of Ljubica and Danica S. Janković2 overlap contemporaneously with dance research writings of Gertrude Prokosch Kurath,3 who in the United States (U.S.) is honored as a pioneer of ethnochoreology (also known as dance ethnology). Although never meeting, the Janković sisters and Kurath are linked through the International Folk Music Council (IFMC) launched by Maud Karpeles in 1947. Her vision of an international commission of dance scholars, such as Janković and Kurath, is evidenced through correspondence in the IFMC/ICTM archives located in the National Library of Australia. Other communications linking Janković and Kurath with folklorists, ethnomusicologists, and anthropologists are found in the Cecil Sharp House with the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library in London and various university-based archives in the United States, such as the Cross-Cultural Dance Resources at Arizona State University, Lilly Library at the University of Indiana in Bloomington, and more. -

They can be the starting point for a new understanding of what is the ‘material basis’ in social and cultural theory. Based on three decades of compara tive studies in body cultures, some methodological and theoretical observations are concluded. They propose directions for a future phenomenology, history, and anthropology of practice. Body culture studies open perspectives for a new way of thinking dialectically and for a humanistic materialism. They contribute to inter-bodily democracy. 1. The body asa material base The body is the material base of our existence as a human being. The body tells our story: Who am I, who are we? On one hand, the body is a part of human existence, which the individual is not free just to choose freely. On the other hand, the body is not determined from the very beginning. Between the given body on one hand and intentional body management on the other, body culture devel ops in a process, which is historical and collective. -

Since they didn’t have access to a plotter, plans had to be printed on A4 paper and stuck together, in a circle. The small details of the gate had to Tweet be drawn up from scratch, using photos and video footage. The skeleton of the gate is made up of 18 X-shaped pieces, and the spinning part is made from small planks. 89 The intricate stargate symbols had to be painstakingly carved, from wood, and chevrons first had to be carved from Styrofoam. The back of the stargate, though painted in gray, is totally fake, but the front looks realistic enough, with chevrons locking and everything. Thanks to an inner track, it even spins. Mango wasn’t too satisfied with the paint-job, but all in all this is a geeky masterpiece, just like the Stargate Share home-cinema . Be sure to check the video Mango made, at the bottom of the post. ..
