With quantified self a whole movement of self-monitoring and self-optimization have emerged. The textile and clothing industry has started to incorporate this trend. Smart textiles, smart clothes and wearable elec- tronics are on the market today. Probably due to a techni- cal impression these gadgets do not experience a general acceptance. Creating a striking fashion statement linked with wear- able electronics has not been expolited yet. Augmented Reality (AR) is a promising trend, which might close this gap. Thinking garment in connection with AR contents an innovative type of fashion statement can be set. A statement in a form of an augmented sensory experience beyond all conventional practices is aimed. coaches: PROF. DR. MARINA-E. WACHS, PROF. DR. rer. nat.

Bio mimetic refers to the transfer of intelligent strategies from nature to technology. Smart textiles, with enhanced functionality, are getting to green smarts under bionic properties with sustainability criteria. In this work, the sur- face texture of fi sh scales and their mechanical properties are transferred onto a technical textile by simulation. The innovation is Haute Tech: A high-tech textile construction of a multi-layer leather hybrid with functionalized surface. Haute Tech is quilted with an electrically-conductive yarn with photovoltaic properties. The power supply is tex- tile-based and can be integrated into outdoor clothing and ski fashion. It also provides an application to microsystems in the dashboard or steering wheel of e-cars. The dichroma- tic scale leather surface with refl ective properties alternates multi-coloured.

  • First Century German Literature and Film
    Abstract Title of Document: AMERICAN BLACKNESS AND VERGANGENHEITSBEWÄLTIGUNG IN TWENTY- FIRST CENTURY GERMAN LITERATURE AND FILM Christina Wall, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed by: Professor Elke P. Frederiksen, Department of Germanic Studies This study represents a unique examination of the convergence of constructs of Blackness and racism in twenty-first century novels and films by white Germans and Austrians in order to demonstrate how these texts broaden discourses of Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The increased prominence of minority voices demanding recognition of their national identity within Nazi successor states has transformed white German perceptions of “Germanness” and of these nations’ relationships to their turbulent pasts. I analyze how authors and directors employ constructs of Blackness within fictional texts to interrogate the dynamics of historical and contemporary racisms. Acknowledging that discourses of ‘race’ are taboo, I analyze how authors and directors avoid this forbidden discourse by drawing comparisons between constructs of American Blackness and German and Austrian historical encounters with ‘race’. This study employs cultural studies’ understanding of ‘race’ and Blackness as constructs created across discourses. Following the example of Toni Morrison’s Playing in the Dark (1992), my textual analyses show how these constructs create a “playground for the imagination” in which authors confront modern German racism. My study begins with a brief history of German-African American encounters, emphasizing the role American Blackness played during pivotal moments of German national identity formation. The subsequent chapters are divided thematically, each one comprised of textual analyses that explore discourses integral to Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The third chapter examines articulations of violence and racism in two films, Oskar Roehler’s Lulu & Jimi (2008) and Michael Schorr’s Schultze gets the blues (2008), to explore possibilities of familial reconciliation despite historical guilt.

Th e victorious troops parading through the streets of Strasbourg were met with expressions of delirious joy from Alsatians. Th e festivities were documented in motion pictures, still photographs, postcards, posters, and countless illustrations (Figure 7.1). Th e girls, wearing enormous black bows, greeting the entering soldiers came to be the defi ning image of the day. Th e traditional costume of Alsace served as a symbol of the region, and in this enactment of Alsace’s return to French control, the Alsatians received the French as their liberators. Th e link in the popular imagination between the Alsatian traditional costume and loyalty to France deserves further consideration.

  • Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-War Press
    Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press by Deborah Barton A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Deborah Barton 2015 Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press Deborah Barton Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This dissertation investigates how women journalists acted as professional functionaries in support of the National Socialist dictatorship, and later, a democratic West Germany. As a project that examines the intersections between the press, politics and gender, this study makes three contributions to the study of German history. The first is for the understanding the expansiveness and malleability of what constituted politics in the Third Reich and the nature of consensus between the regime and the population. Nazi gender ideology proclaimed that women belonged only in the private sphere. Correspondingly, Nazi press authorities dictated that women write only about topics pertaining to this area. The regime labeled such news apolitical. However, soft news from a cheerful perspective was an indispensible part of Nazi media policy: it provided the façade of normalcy and morale building under Hitler. In return for their support, the state offered women journalists a status not open to most women. The study of women journalists further unravels the draw of National Socialism for those Germans the regime deemed politically, socially and racially acceptable: increased possibilities and social prestige. The second contribution relates to the study of women in the professions, which has often been overlooked.
