    Heiser, Jörg. “Do it Again,” Frieze, Issue 94, October 2005. In conversation with Marina Abramovic Marina Abramovic: Monica, I really like your piece Hausfrau Swinging [1997] – a video that combines sculpture and performance. Have you ever performed this piece yourself? Monica Bonvicini: No, although my mother said, ‘you have to do it, Monica – you have to stand there naked wearing this house’. I replied, ‘I don’t think so’. In the piece a woman has a model of a house on her head and bangs it against a dry-wall corner; it’s related to a Louise Bourgeois drawing from the ‘Femme Maison’ series [Woman House, 1946–7], which I had a copy of in my studio for a long time. I actually first shot a video of myself doing the banging, but I didn’t like the result at all: I was too afraid of getting hurt. So I thought of a friend of mine who is an actor: she has a great, strong body – a little like the woman in the Louise Bourgeois drawing that inspired it – and I knew she would be able to do it the right way. Jörg Heiser: Monica, after you first showed Wall Fuckin’ in 1995 – a video installation that includes a static shot of a naked woman embracing a wall, with her head outside the picture frame – you told me one critic didn’t talk to you for two years because he was upset it wasn’t you. It’s an odd assumption that female artists should only use their own bodies.

  • Natural Materials These Are Materials That Are ‘Naturally’ Found Around Us
    Natural Materials These are materials that are ‘naturally’ found around us. We may have to dig them out of the ground, grow them, or take them from living things. Wood It is used for burning, building houses, benches, fences and lots of other things. It isn’t chemically processed so it is natural. Wood comes from stems and roots of trees and other woody plants. Cotton Cotton is a soft, fluffy material that grows around the seed of the cotton plant. There are no chemical processes used to make cotton so it is a natural material. The cotton is spun into yarn to make a soft breathable fabric. Cotton is used to make clothes and furnishings. Gold Gold is a metal found as nuggets in rocks. It is not chemically processed so it is a natural material. Gold is melted down to make jewellery, gold teeth and used in industry.

  • Gina PANE: Action Psyché
    Gina PANE: Action Psyché 30 May – 22 June 2019 Private view: Wednesday 29 May, 6–8pm “If I open my ‘body’ so that you can see your blood therein, it is for the love of you: the Other.” – Gina PANE, 1973 Gina Pane was instrumental to the development of the international Body Art movement, establishing a unique and corporeal language marked by ritual, symbolism and catharsis. The body, most often the artist’s own physical form, remained at the heart of her artistic practice as a tool of expression and communication until her death in 1990. Coming from the archives of the Galerie Rodolphe Stadler, the Parisian gallery of Pane who were themselves revolutionary in their presentation of avant-garde performance art, her exhibition at Richard Saltoun Gallery celebrates the artist’s pioneering career with a focus on the actions for which she is best known. It provides the most comprehensive display of the artist’s work in London since the Tate’s presentation in 2002. Exploring universal themes such as love, pain, death, spirituality and the metaphorical power of art, Pane sought to reveal and transform the way we have been taught to experience our body in relation to the self and others. She defined the body as “a place of the pain and suffering, of cunning and hope, of despair and illusion.” Her actions strived to reconnect the forces of the subconscious with the collective memory of the human psyche, and the sacred or spiritual. In these highly choreographed events, Pane subjected herself to intense physical and mental trials, which ranged from desperately seeking to drink from a glass of milk whilst tied, breaking the glass and lapping at the shards with her mouth (Action Transfert, 1973); piercing her arm with a neat line of rose thorns (Action Sentimentale, 1973); to methodically cutting her eyelids and stomach with razor blades (Action Psyché, 1974);and boxing with herself in front of a mirror (Action Il Caso no.

  • Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67
    Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 Marc Howard Medwin A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: David Garcia Allen Anderson Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer Stefan Litwin ©2008 Marc Howard Medwin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARC MEDWIN: Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 (Under the direction of David F. Garcia). The music of John Coltrane’s last group—his 1965-67 quintet—has been misrepresented, ignored and reviled by critics, scholars and fans, primarily because it is a music built on a fundamental and very audible disunity that renders a new kind of structural unity. Many of those who study Coltrane’s music have thus far attempted to approach all elements in his last works comparatively, using harmonic and melodic models as is customary regarding more conventional jazz structures. This approach is incomplete and misleading, given the music’s conceptual underpinnings. The present study is meant to provide an analytical model with which listeners and scholars might come to terms with this music’s more radical elements. I use Coltrane’s own observations concerning his final music, Jonathan Kramer’s temporal perception theory, and Evan Parker’s perspectives on atomism and laminarity in mid 1960s British improvised music to analyze and contextualize the symbiotically related temporal disunity and resultant structural unity that typify Coltrane’s 1965-67 works.

    sustainability Editorial Sustainable Acoustic Materials Jorge P. Arenas 1,* and Kimihiro Sakagami 2 1 Institute of Acoustics, University Austral of Chile, PO Box 567, Valdivia 5090000, Chile 2 Environmental Acoustics Laboratory, Department of Architecture, Graduate School of Engineering, Kobe University, Kobe 657-8501, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +56-632-221012 Received: 10 August 2020; Accepted: 11 August 2020; Published: 13 August 2020 Abstract: Technological advances in materials science, manufacturing processes, chemistry and nanoscience have led to enormous developments in innovatively engineered materials over recent decades. Among them, sustainable acoustic materials have helped to improve acoustical comfort in built environments, and their use is rapidly growing in the architecture, automotive, aerospace and construction industries. These materials are manufactured through a responsible interaction with the environment in order to avoid a depletion or degradation of the natural resources, and to allow for long-term environmental quality. This Special Issue reports on some research studies on membrane absorbers and fibrous materials of natural origin that can be sustainable alternatives to traditional acoustic materials. Keywords: sustainable materials; sound-absorption; natural fibers; acoustic materials; recycled and recyclable materials; membrane absorbers; nanofibers 1. Introduction Although the term is complex, and several definitions of ‘sustainability’ can be found in the literature, the report presented by the World Commission on Environment and Development to the United Nations General Assembly in 1987 stated that the use of resources and the development of technologies should “meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” [1].
