Arts-Based Methods for Decolonising Participatory Research In an effort to challenge the ways in which colonial power relations and Eurocentric knowledges are reproduced in participatory research, this book explores whether and how it is possible to use arts-based methods for creating more horizontal and democratic research practices. In discussing both the transformative potential and limitations of arts-based methods, the book asks: What can arts-based methods contribute to decolonising participatory research and its processes and practices? The book takes part in ongoing debates related to the need to decolonise research, and investigates practical contributions of arts-based methods in the practice-led research domain. Further, it discusses the role of artistic research in depth, locating it in a decolonising context. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, design, fine arts, service design, social sciences and development studies.

    IT News - 2015 & 2016 | NWU | North-West University http://www.nwu.ac.za/it-news-2015-2016 IT NEWS 2015 IT changes gears to support researchers at NWU 01/12/2015 - 11:05 IT @ NWU has a new vision for the relationship between IT and the University’s researchers. IT wants to help accelerate research discovery through provisioning of relevant technology, infrastructure, and support. Boeta Pretorius, Chief IT Director says: “Research has been mentioned in the IT strategy for many years, but in 2015 we’re actually going to do something about the way we support our researcher”. So moving from words to action, in the past three months IT has done the following: added an eResearch specialist to their staff complement, joined conversations about an African Research Cloud together with other prominent research institutes in South Africa and abroad, and obtained approval for NWU to feature as founding partner of a South African based institute that will be aimed at research in data intensive sciences. These steps are the rst towards establishing an eResearch Initiative at the North-West University from an IT perspective. Other eResearch partners are also gearing up to embrace technology in research support. According to Mrs Elsa Esterhuizen, director of Potchefstroom Campus Library Services, eResearch highlights the importance of dovetailing between the various role-players. The Library Services do not only provide access to accredited information sources, but also training and support in the use of research tools. The Research Commons allows exclusive access to postgraduates and researchers. This collaborative hub offers relevant infrastructure enhancing the research process.

    EASTERN STATE PENITENTIARY A N A TIONAL HIST ORIC LANDMARK 1. History of Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia In the ambitious age of reform following the American Revolution, the new nation aspired to change profoundly its public institutions, and to set an example for the world in social development. Every type of institution that we are familiar with today—educational, medical and governmental—was revolutionized in these years by the rational and humanistic principles of the Enlightenment. Of all of the radical innovations born in this era, American democracy was, of course, the most influ- ential. The second major intellectual export was prison design and reform. Most eighteenth century prisons were simply large holding pens. Groups of adults and children, men and women, and petty thieves and murderers, sorted out their own affairs behind locked doors. Physical punishment and mutilation were common, and abuse of the prisoners by the guards and overseers was assumed. In 1787, a group of well-known and powerful Philadelphians convened in the home of Benjamin Franklin. The members of The Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons expressed growing concern with the conditions in American and European prisons. Dr. Benjamin Rush spoke on the Society’s goal, to see the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania set the international standard in prison design. He proposed a radical idea: to build a true penitentiary, a prison designed to create genuine regret and penitence in the criminal’s heart. The concept grew from Enlightenment thinking, but no government had successfully carried out such a program. It took the Society more than thirty years to convince the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to build the kind of prison it suggested: a revolutionary new building on farmland outside Philadelphia.

    Night Visit Standing on the Curb Outside Baggage Claim at LAX, I Shifted the Weight of My Overnight Bag on My Shoulder, Looking for My Brother, Peter

    Night Visit Standing on the curb outside baggage claim at LAX, I shifted the weight of my overnight bag on my shoulder, looking for my brother, Peter. His white Toyota nosed its way through the congested airport traffic, and there he was! Blond and blue, eyes bright and twinkling as usual, skin clear, his handsome face crossed with only the smallest lines betraying the fact that he was at the tail end of his forties. We hugged and laughed, smiling into one another's eyes. Parting, I slipped my bag to the pavement, we grasped hands and jumped in a small circle as we did when we were children. He, still, eternally boyish. As for me, well, I’ve always been loathe to give up my "Peter Pan complex". He's my Peter, and I one of his lost boys, even if I am his older sister. Or maybe I’m his Wendy-bird: forever pre-pubescent innocents, I followed him, and we ran away from Florida to California, our Never-land. My sister's eyes, anxious but furtive, searched for signs of failing. Peter had been living with AIDS for such a long time now. Thankfully, as usual, I found myself relieved by his apparent glowing health. While I’d grabbed the brass ring, blue chip law firm, partner, fancy schmancy - since shortly after graduating from law school himself, Peter has been on disability. I feel it’s incumbent upon me to share the wealth and, while appreciating the help, I know he could care less about the money.

    UNIVERSITETSBIBLIOTEKET I TROMSØ PRivatarkiv nr. 15 Iver Jåks 1932 – 2007 UiT Norges arktiske universitet Universitetsbiblioteket Huginbakken 14 9019 TROMSØ [email protected] Iver Jåks – kortfattet biografi Iver Jåks ble født den 25. oktober 1932 på vinterbeite. Foreldrene var reindriftsamer og alt lå til rette for at lille Iver skulle gå i farens fotspor. Men våren 1940, da Iver var knapt åtte år gammel, fikk han foten ødelagt i en ulykke under kjøring med rein. Han ble behandlet på kysthospitalet i Vadsø og kom etterpå til Norges Samemisjons vanførehjem Bjerkely i Tromsø. Under oppholdet der fikk han lært å lese og skrive. Samtidig åpenbarte hans talent for billedkunst seg. 18 år gammel fikk Jåks plass på Den Samiske Folkehøgskolen i Karasjok. Etter to årskurs der fikk han i 1952 plass på Statens håndverks- og kunstskole i Oslo, hvor han var til 1955. Samme året ble Jåks opptatt ved Statens lærerskole i forming på Notodden, hvor han gjennomførte utdanningen. Etter avsluttet skolegang fikk han jobb som lærer i tegning og samisk kunsthåndverk ved Den Samiske Folkehøgskolen. Siden kom han til Vraa Højskole i Danmark. Her ble han blant annet kjent med den danske kunsthistorikeren Rudolf Broby Johansen, noe som kan ha vært en medvirkende årsak til at han ble opptatt som elev på Kunstakademiet i København i årene 1958–59. Etter at han ble ferdig på Kunstakademiet giftet han seg med Inger Nielsen fra Holbæk. Paret flyttet til Karasjok hvor de bodde mesteparten av livet. Jåks hadde adskillige illustrasjons- og utsmykkingsoppdrag. Han har designet sølv til Finnmarksbunaden, kirketekstiler, monumentalskulpturer i tre, samt et betongrelieff – Gudenes dans – utenfor de samiske samlinger i Karasjok.

Kahle Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2010 The dissertation of Shannon A. Kahle was reviewed and approved* by the following: Matthew P. McAllister Professor of Communications Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Dennis K. Davis Professor of Communications Matthew Jordan Assistant Professor of Communications Stephen H. Browne Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT The proliferation of traumatized bodies on screen is matched by the proliferation of body studies in the humanities and social sciences. The interest in the body has exploded among a number of fields of study and is a staple in visual culture. What is happening in contemporary representation and spectatorship of pain and ‘ruined bodies’? What is the relationship of contemporary visuality, the ruined body, and the social? Finally, what is the mode of selfhood deployed in contemporary visual culture and how is it related to other discursive-institutional realms of practice? In this dissertation I consider three fictional visual texts that elucidate particular institutional realms within which the body is centrally figured; these texts are the medical drama House M.D., the first three films of the horror series Saw, which draws heavily on religious discourse and iconography, and the forensic investigation drama Bones. The purpose is to consider the ways in which these texts represent the practices of each realm as well as the visualization of the body itself and the model of the self and the social deployed in each.

    Handbook of Religious Beliefs and Practices

    STATE OF WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES 1987 FIRST REVISION 1995 SECOND REVISION 2004 THIRD REVISION 2011 FOURTH REVISION 2012 FIFTH REVISION 2013 HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES INTRODUCTION The Department of Corrections acknowledges the inherent and constitutionally protected rights of incarcerated offenders to believe, express and exercise the religion of their choice. It is our intention that religious programs will promote positive values and moral practices to foster healthy relationships, especially within the families of those under our jurisdiction and within the communities to which they are returning. As a Department, we commit to providing religious as well as cultural opportunities for offenders within available resources, while maintaining facility security, safety, health and orderly operations. The Department will not endorse any religious faith or cultural group, but we will ensure that religious programming is consistent with the provisions of federal and state statutes, and will work hard with the Religious, Cultural and Faith Communities to ensure that the needs of the incarcerated community are fairly met. This desk manual has been prepared for use by chaplains, administrators and other staff of the Washington State Department of Corrections. It is not meant to be an exhaustive study of all religions. It does provide a brief background of most religions having participants housed in Washington prisons. This manual is intended to provide general guidelines, and define practice and procedure for Washington State Department of Corrections institutions. It is intended to be used in conjunction with Department policy. While it does not confer theological expertise, it will, provide correctional workers with the information necessary to respond too many of the religious concerns commonly encountered.
