ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many thanks to my family: my mom, Silvia, for the constant support throughout this journey. To my brother, João, for all the political and philosophical conversations which helped me see things clearly. To him and Camille, for all the movie nights. To my cousin, Vinicius, for the patience and for making me laugh. To my dad, Arnaldo, and my stepmother, Maria Luiza, for helping me keep calm in a time of madness. To my sisters, Julia and Luiza, for the support and great conversations. To Felipe, for all the laughs and political debates. To Zuleica e Isabela for the fun and friendship at the end of this journey, which made everything easier to bear. Also, many thanks to my friends for not abandoning me during this crazy time: Juliana, Luise, Fernanda, Fernando, Renato, Dani, Fê Alf, Abel, Victor, Erica e Marcos: you’re the greatest! I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart each and every one of my History teachers for helping me think for myself and always search for the meaning of truth. My thanks also goes to all teachers who have helped me grow into who I am today. Without you, I wouldn’t be here. My special thanks goes to Ivair Coelho Lisboa for making me fall in love with Philosophy. Also, for helping me uncover the philosophical beauty in cinematic art, and especially for introducing me to Jorge Luis Borges and H. P. Lovecraft. For all that, I will be eternally grateful. My other special thanks goes to Maria da Conceição Monteiro for bringing Philosophy back into my life – for all the philosophical debates in class, which made me arrive at the conclusion that there is no conclusions in life. And for all the fun I’ve had in those classes, debating whether there is quality in Hollywood films. Also, thanks to Fernanda Lima, for making me fall in love again with the Greeks; and to Eliane Berutti, for all the fun debates and advices. Thanks to my colleagues and friends, Bruno César F. Vieira and Davi Pinho for all the advices, help and support throughout this crazy journey of academic life.

Dissertação (Mestrado em Literaturas de Língua Inglesa) – Instituto de Letras, Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, 2015. O objetivo desta dissertação é analisar a questão da política do medo e das várias formas de manipulação da realidade encontradas nas narrativa de 1984 (1949), de George Orwell, assim como na narrativa gráfica de V de Vingança – tanto na sua versão em quadrinhos, de Alan Moore (1982-88), quanto na sua adaptação cinematográfica, escrita pelos Wachowskis (2005). Em particular, tenta demonstrar similaridades nas técnicas usadas, assim como na análise dos personagens, procurando embasar certos questionamentos com a ajuda de filósofos políticos, estudos de psicologia, culturais, e distópicos. Ao final, este trabalho tenta identificar a importância da influência dos autores estudados, assim como outros autores distópicos, na criação e desenvolvimento de uma nova geração social de mentalidade inconformista.

Fear and manipulation in George Orwell’s Nineteen eighty-four and Alan Moore’s V for vendetta. 2015. 129 f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Literaturas de Língua Inglesa) – Instituto de Letras, Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, 2015. This dissertation aims to analize the question of the politics of fear and the many forms of manipulation of reality found in George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), as well as in Alan Moore’s graphic novel V for Vendetta (1982-88) and its film adaptation written by the Wachowskis (2005). In particular, it tries to show similarities among the used techniques, as well as in the character analysis, trying to support these findings with the help of political philosophers, as well as psychological, cultural and dystopian studies. In the end, this work tries to identify the importance of these authors, as well as other dystopian authors, and their influence on the creation and development of a new generation of nonconformists. Keywords: Dystopian literature. Politics. Dystopia. Manipulation. Deception. Nonconformity.

After watching the film, I read the graphic novel and realized they were both completely different narratives, each focusing on different flaws in the government, and yet with much in common – with Moore focusing on criticizing Margaret Thatcher’s conservative administration of the United Kingdom. Still in 2006, at the end of the year, I had decided to focus on this narrative as the main idea for a future dissertation. However, I was still unsure mostly because of the fact that the main work was a comic book and its filmic adaptation, even though I believed them to be worthy of analyzing. In any case, I do not intend to discourse on this issue of filmic adaptation or the importance of other types of narratives to Literature. Nonetheless, I would like to mention

  • Principia Discordia.Pdf
    RAW Intro | Omar Intro | Title Page | Index | Version Notes | INTRODUCTION You hold in your hands one of the Great Books of our century fnord. Some Great Books are recognized at once with a fusillade of critical huzzahs and gonfolons, like Joyce’s Ulysses. Others appear almost furtively and are only discovered 50 years later, like Moby Dick or Mendel’s great essay on genetics. The Principia Discordia entered our space-time continuum almost as unobtrusively as a cat-burglar creeping over a windowsill. In 1968, virtually nobody had heard of this wonderful book. In 1970, hundreds of people from coast to coast were talking about it and asking the identity of the mysterious author, Malaclypse the Younger. Rumors swept across the continent, from New York to Los Angeles, from Seattle to St. Joe. Malaclypse was actually Alan Watts, one heard. No, said another legend – the Principia was actually the work of the Sufi Order. A third, very intriguing myth held that Malaclypse was a pen-name for Richard M. Nixon, who had allegedly composed the Principia during a few moments of lucidity. I enjoyed each of these yarns and did my part to help spread them. I was also careful never to contradict the occasional rumors that I had actually written the whole thing myself during an acid trip. The legendry, the mystery, the cult grew very slowly. By the mid- 1970’s, thousands of people, some as far off as Hong Kong and Australia, were talking about the Principia, and since the original was out of print by then, xerox copies were beginning to circulate here and there.

David G Colton A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Manchester School of Art Manchester Metropolitan University 2019 1 | David Colton Abstract: My practice involves re-imagining aleatory art systems and practices to create products that push the user into a direct relationship with chance. Initial research revealed that modernist aleatory practices have largely been recuperated into the canon of contemporary art techniques. It was my intention to re- invigorate these practices by re-imagining them in a new context outside of art practice: to change perspectives, ‘reality tunnels’ and to transcend culture and social conditioning. There are differences between work that has been made using chance in the creative process, and work that pushes the artist or viewer into chance encounters and situations and exploring the differences between them has been an important part of this project. The resulting works situate the user within the chance process, and in effect, make them the subject of their own experimentation and practice. My insights and discoveries develop out of a range of experimental artistic works that critically examine the re-imagining and commodification of chance processes. This thesis documents the development of each work in a series of chapters which also explain the research and developmental processes, in addition to setting the works in a theoretical and contextual framework.

  • Music at the Edge of Chaos: a Complex Systems Perspective on File Sharing
    Music at the Edge of Chaos: A Complex Systems Perspective on File Sharing Deborah Tussey∗ I. INTRODUCTION The twin developments of digital copying and global networking technologies have drastically transformed the information environment and have produced particularly acute dislocations in the music recording industry. The perceived threat to the industry posed by peer-to-peer (“P2P”) file sharing has inspired numerous proposals for legislative action, many involving major adjustments to or even abandonment of the copyright regime. Contemporary file sharing arose in the context of a system designed to produce and distribute musical recordings. This article approaches the issue of file sharing regulation1 by applying complexity theory and related principles of systems analysis to that system. Systems both occur naturally and result from human design.2 Complexity theory provides a conceptual model for a particular category of systems—complex adaptive systems3—and their evolution ∗ Associate Professor, Oklahoma City University School of Law.

Diplomsko delo Ljubljana 2007 UNIVERZA V LJUBLJANI FAKULTETA ZA DRUŽBENE VEDE Irena Bezlaj Mentorica doc. dr. Alenka Švab SODOBNA PARTNERSKA RAZMERJA: URESNIČEVANJE ČISTEGA RAZMERJA? Diplomsko delo Ljubljana 2007 Sodobna partnerska razmerja: uresničevanje čistega razmerja? V diplomski nalogi spremljamo razvoj partnerskega razmerja in družine od tradicionalne družbe, prek moderne pa vse do pozne moderne. Posebej nas zanima tudi, kako sta na razvoj partnerskega razmerja vplivala procesa individualizacije in sekularizacije. Pri preučevanju sodobnega partnerskega razmerja, ki predstavlja naš fokus, si podrobneje ogledamo, kako v okviru tega delujeta ljubezen in erotika. Pogledamo si različne tipe ljubezni: od strastne, romantične do sotočne ljubezni. Zanima pa nas tudi, katere oblike partnerskih razmerij obstajajo ter ali popularnost in pomen tradicionalne zakonske zveze upada. Pri obravnavanju partnerskih razmerij ne izključimo tistih, ki so malo manj konvencionalna, kot so na primer homoseksualna in odprta razmerja. Še posebej pa se osredotočimo na koncepta čistega razmerja in plastične seksualnosti, kot ju opredeli Anthony Giddens, in se sprašujemo, na kakšen način in v kolikšni meri lahko ti dve kategoriji, kot ideal, če ne že kot realnost, zasledimo pri sodobnih partnerskih razmerjih. Odgovore na ta vprašanja iščemo na vzorcu dvanajstih sodobnih filmov, ki se intenzivno ukvarjajo s temo intimnosti in seksualnosti v sodobnem partnerskem razmerju. Te filme, in znotraj teh še posebej partnerska razmerja, ki jih prek njih spoznamo, analiziramo in interpretiramo ter tako sledimo procesu preobrazbe intimnosti. Ključne besede: intimnost, seksualnost, individualizacija, postmoderna, film. Contemporary intimate relationship: the realisation of pure relationship? In this final thesis we observe the development of intimate relationship and family from traditional to modern and postmodern society.
