Prof. Andreas Treske June 2020 Monitor is a re-imagination of a clock tower, which re-conceptualizes the passing of time in a way that all moving elements inside the city outdoors become the units of the timekeeping activity. Abandoning the conventional approaches that frame time as a homogeneous entity, I make use of Bergson’s description of dura, and rethink the so- called homogeneity rather as a heterogeneous structure composed of distinct durations that are constantly intersecting with each other, and, produce infinite amount of arbitrary arrangements. This thesis offers a concept of an urban media sculpture that mirrors the movement of the people in outdoor settings, by collecting the real-time data from public monitoring systems.

  • The Peformative Grotesquerie of the Crucifixion of Jesus
    THE GROTESQUE CROSS: THE PERFORMATIVE GROTESQUERIE OF THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS Hephzibah Darshni Dutt A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2015 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Charles Kanwischer Graduate Faculty Representative Eileen Cherry Chandler Marcus Sherrell © 2015 Hephzibah Dutt All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor In this study I argue that the crucifixion of Jesus is a performative event and this event is an exemplar of the Grotesque. To this end, I first conduct a dramatistic analysis of the crucifixion of Jesus, working to explicate its performativity. Viewing this performative event through the lens of the Grotesque, I then discuss its various grotesqueries, to propose the concept of the Grotesque Cross. As such, the term “Grotesque Cross” functions as shorthand for the performative event of the crucifixion of Jesus, as it is characterized by various aspects of the Grotesque. I develop the concept of the Grotesque Cross thematically through focused studies of representations of the crucifixion: the film, Jesus of Montreal (Arcand, 1989), Philip Turner’s play, Christ in the Concrete City, and an autoethnographic examination of Cross-wearing as performance. I examine each representation through the lens of the Grotesque to define various facets of the Grotesque Cross. iv For Drs. Chetty and Rukhsana Dutt, beloved holy monsters & Hannah, Abhishek, and Esther, my fellow aliens v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS St. Cyril of Jerusalem, in instructing catechumens, wrote, “The dragon sits by the side of the road, watching those who pass.

Tutkimuksessa haluttiin selvittää, onko englannin kielen määrä lehdessä lisääntynyt, vähentynyt vai pysynyt samana vuosikymmenten kuluessa. Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin myös englannin kielen symbolista arvoa eli millaisissa tilanteissa englannin kieltä käytettiin. Tutkimusta varten Suosikki- lehteä tutkittiin viiden vuosikymmenen ajalta. Jokaiselta vuosikymmeneltä valittiin yksi vuosikerta, jonka kaikki numerot sisällytettiin tutkimukseen. Vuosikerroiksi valittiin 1969, 1979, 1989, 1999 ja 2009. Näiden vuosikertojen lehdet tutkittiin tarkoin ja englantia s isältävät ilmaukset ja lauseet hyväksyttiin tutkimukseen. Näiden esimerkkien avulla saatiin selville, onko englannin kielen käyttö muuttunut vuosikymmenten saatossa. Esimerkkitapaukset myös lajiteltiin eri kategorioihin,
