The graphics and the poetics of the gestures are part homage that the author gives to these women who represent a very i…
Diseño gráfico para formar al profesorado de primaria
2021
Educar en diseño es probablemente la base para una predisposición social hacia la creatividad y la innovación. Presentamos los resultados de una investigación desarrollada en la práctica universitaria, formulada metodológicamente como estudio de caso. Incorporamos la práctica del diseño gráfico al currículum formativo de Maestro/a en Educación Primaria. Si queremos que la ciudadanía aprecie el diseño, conviene preparar al profesorado. Para lograr este acercamiento al diseño gráfico planteamos un taller en el que cada participante elabora su propio exlibris. Los resultados positivos nos animan a continuar con este tipo de iniciativas que aglutinan diseño, patrimonio, identidad e inclusión. E…
Análisis del repertorio musical en los manuales escolares
2021
Una de las concreciones de la pedagogía crítica en la educación musical es la utilización de un repertorio que incorpore las preferencias del alumnado. En este estudio se aborda la presencia de dicho repertorio en los manuales escolares más utilizados en la actualidad. Para ello, se ha accedido a 15 libros de texto, analizando 985 piezas distintas. Las variables empleadas han sido el período histórico o género musical, el estilo dentro del repertorio de la música popular urbana, la antigüedad del autor y la tipología de propuesta didáctica asociada. Los resultados indican que la música popular urbana tiene una escasa presencia en los manuales (8.20%) y no coincide con las preferencias de lo…
COMPOSITION OF REFUSE DERIVED FUELS IN LATVIA AND ESTONIA IN COMPARISION WITH WORLDWIDE AVERAGE VALUES
2019
Information about composition of RDF worldwide was collected using literature analysis. RDF samples produced in Latvia and Estonia were collected, those fractional and elemental composition analyzed using standard methods. Comparing obtained results with worldwide data we have found that the quality of local RDFs in general is higher than typical values, while elevated content of chlorine must be mentioned as a problem. Results also show that majority of chlorine in studied samples exists in organic form. Recommendations to overcome this problem have been developed.
Monstrous Hybrids in Shakespeare’s King Lear
2017
ABSTRACT: This article seeks to present the different languages (emblems, Renaissance translations of classical myths, biblical exegesis) that inform the images of monsters which, as hybrid creatures blending human and animal characteristics, serve a dramatic function in Shakespeare’s King Lear . It means to question the ways in which the play links filial ingratitude with female monstrosity and Lear’s madness. Tracing the classical and medieval lineage of the monstrous bestiary (serpent, tiger, vulture) in King Lear and connecting it to emblematic readings of Shakespeare’s time, it explores how Shakespeare provides a dynamic characterisation of Goneril and Regan through their bestialisatio…

When Augmented Reality Met Art: Lessons Learned from Researcher–Artist Interdisciplinary Work
2018
Over the last few years, Augmented Reality (AR) technology has quickly evolved and today there is commercial software and hardware that allow the creation of AR experiences. However, it might still be cumbersome to create rich AR experiences without a deep knowledge of the technology. Artists have collaborated with IT experts during the last few years in order to enhance artistic pieces embedding AR technology, leading to the emergence of interesting collaborations between artists and engineers, computer scientists, architects, etc. The resulting works can be referred as AR Art. However, the interdisciplinary work behind these collaborations is usually not addressed. The aim of this paper i…

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PARADIGM SHIFT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN INDUSTRY AND DESIGN EDUCATION
2015
Literature about design development and the current situation of the essence of trends in this field allow for the defining of design as an independent branch. Analysis of design and education regulations highlights the conflict between reality and gaps that exist in European statistical standards and International Standard Classification of Education. The purpose of this study is to explore complex problems in the field of design and design education which determines the need for Paradigm Shift for further development of these branches, as well as to present proposals for definitions of key terms of design and offer proposals for a new design education classification. This research will sh…
Reconstruction of the Rib Vaults of the Hypostyle Hall in the Maniace Castle of Siracusa After the 1693 Earthquake
2016
ABSTRACTBuilt in the first half of the 13th century on behalf of the Emperor Frederick II, the Maniace Castle of Siracusa focuses its enigma in the hypostyle hall (which was composed of 25 quadripartite rib vaults) and the design criteria adopted for its implementation. Recent research and a careful rereading of the documentary “restoration project” after the earthquake of 1693 have offered new tools to understand the construction techniques and building procedures for the entire organism. It has been possible to demonstrate that the different material (white limestone and volcanic stone) used for the vaults is, in fact, a product of reconstruction. The constructive node, which historiograp…
