This document intends to identify promising fields of applications for the VirtualLife platform. It will define two applicative domains, identify the related end-users and their needs through an iterative selection process. The final goal is to present to which user needs Virtual Life can respond. Part of the information that we provide must been seen as a revision and an update of the document that has already been released on 30 June 2008 and re-edited on May 2009 and February 2010. Moreover, the present document intends to provide a documentation of the iterative process that has been followed for identifying the end users and their high-level requirements driving the customization of the platform at the end of the third year of the project, and the Validation and subsequent refinement of the VirtualLife platform during the last 9 months of the project. An initial description of the Validation roadmap setting the path for the forthcoming actions (further detailed in D10.1) focused on the two selected applicative domains is also provided. Final Confidential 4 D2.1 End User Definition and Needs 1 Introduction The document presents the process of generation of 7 applicative domains for the Virtual Life platform and the down selection of two key domains of application. It is structured in five main sections. The first section explains the methodology that has been defined and followed to identify the applicative domains and to select the key ones to focus the development and validation activities. This process was initially structured along two strands: study of the state of the art of Virtual Worlds applications (section 3) and the study of the potentialities and criticalities of the Market (through a questionnaire and workshop with potential stakeholders, section 4). State of the art, market opportunities, questionnaire and workshop outcomes were merged to obtain the definition of the suitable applicative domains and users (section 5). This brought to the identification of 2 key applicative domains that will be the focus of the next phases of development and validation of the project. For them, applicative scenarios, use cases and activity diagrams are defined (section 6). 2 The process of selection of the Applicative Domains The process

  • Re-Branding a Nation Online: Discourses on Polish Nationalism and Patriotism
    Re-Branding a Nation Online Re-Branding a Nation Online Discourses on Polish Nationalism and Patriotism Magdalena Kania-Lundholm Dissertation presented at Uppsala University to be publicly examined in Sal IX, Universitets- huset, Uppsala, Friday, October 26, 2012 at 10:15 for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The examination will be conducted in English. Abstract Kania-Lundholm, M. 2012. Re-Branding A Nation Online: Discourses on Polish Nationalism and Patriotism. Sociologiska institutionen. 258 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 978-91-506-2302-4. The aim of this dissertation is two-fold. First, the discussion seeks to understand the concepts of nationalism and patriotism and how they relate to one another. In respect to the more criti- cal literature concerning nationalism, it asks whether these two concepts are as different as is sometimes assumed. Furthermore, by problematizing nation-branding as an “updated” form of nationalism, it seeks to understand whether we are facing the possible emergence of a new type of nationalism. Second, the study endeavors to discursively analyze the ”bottom-up” processes of national reproduction and re-definition in an online, post-socialist context through an empirical examination of the online debate and polemic about the new Polish patriotism. The dissertation argues that approaching nationalism as a broad phenomenon and ideology which operates discursively is helpful for understanding patriotism as an element of the na- tionalist rhetoric that can be employed to study national unity, sameness, and difference. Emphasizing patriotism within the Central European context as neither an alternative to nor as a type of nationalism may make it possible to explain the popularity and continuous endur- ance of nationalism and of practices of national identification in different and changing con- texts.

  • Dancing Into the Chthulucene: Sensuous Ecological Activism In
    Dancing into the Chthulucene: Sensuous Ecological Activism in the 21st Century Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kelly Perl Klein Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Dr. Harmony Bench, Advisor Dr. Ann Cooper Albright Dr. Hannah Kosstrin Dr. Mytheli Sreenivas Copyrighted by Kelly Perl Klein 2019 2 Abstract This dissertation centers sensuous movement-based performance and practice as particularly powerful modes of activism toward sustainability and multi-species justice in the early decades of the 21st century. Proposing a model of “sensuous ecological activism,” the author elucidates the sensual components of feminist philosopher and biologist Donna Haraway’s (2016) concept of the Chthulucene, articulating how sensuous movement performance and practice interpellate Chthonic subjectivities. The dissertation explores the possibilities and limits of performances of vulnerability, experiences of interconnection, practices of sensitization, and embodied practices of radical inclusion as forms of activism in the context of contemporary neoliberal capitalism and competitive individualism. Two theatrical dance works and two communities of practice from India and the US are considered in relationship to neoliberal shifts in global economic policy that began in the late 1970s. The author analyzes the dance work The Dammed (2013) by the Darpana Academy for Performing Arts in Ahmedabad,
