​This book investigates the global hub airport as an exemplar of cosmopolitan culture and space. A machine made for movement, itself perched at the crossroads of the world’s incessant mobility, the airport is both a symbol of and stage for the ways in which we construct and inhabit the world today. Taking an ethnographically-inflected approach, this study brings together knowledge of the moving body from dance and performance and the study of systems of mobility within cultural and mobilities studies, in order to call attention to the kinaesthetic experience of global space. What is the choreography of the global airport? How does it perform on us. How do we perform within it? Extending thinking about contemporary cosmopolitanism and cultural identity, and the performativity of places and identities, this book is essential reading for those interested in cultural debates around globalisation, the innovative application of performance theory towards everyday experience, and interdisciplinary methodologies.

This book offers new ways of thinking about dance-related artworks that have taken place in galleries, museums and biennales over the past two decades as part of the choreographic turn. It focuses on the concept of intersubjectivity and theorises about what happens when subjects meet within a performance artwork. The resulting relations are crucial to instances of performance art in which embodied subjects engage as spectators, participants and performers in orchestrated art events. Choreographing Intersubjectivity in Performance Art deploys a multi-disciplinary approach across dance choreography and evolving manifestations of performance art. An innovative, overarching concept of choreography sustains the idea that intersubjectivity evolves through places, spaces, performance and spectatorship. Drawing upon international examples, the book introduces readers to performance art from the South Pacific and the complexities of de-colonising choreography. Artists Tino Sehgal, Xavier Le Roy, Jordan Wolfson, Alicia Frankovich and Shigeyuki Kihara are discussed.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering, FASE 2013, held as part of the European Joint Conference on Theory and Practice of Software, ETAPS 2013, which took place in Rome, Italy, in March 2013. The 25 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: model-driven engineering; verification and validation; software comprehension; analysis tools; model-driven engineering: applications; model transformations; and testing.

This comprehensive biography examines Halprin's fascinating life in the context of American culture - in particular popular culture and the West Coast as a center of artistic experimentation from the Beats through the Hippies to the present.

Architecture and Choreography: Collaborations in Dance, Space and Time examines the field of archi-choreographic experiments—unique interdisciplinary encounters and performed events generated through collaborations between architects and choreographers. Forty case studies spanning four decades give evidence of the range of motivations for embarking on these creative endeavors and diverse conceptual underpinnings, generative methods, objects of inquiry, and outcomes. Architecture and Choreography builds histories and theories through which to examine these works, the contexts within, and processes through which the works emerged, and the critical questions they raise about ways to work together, sites and citations, ethics and equity, control and agency. Three themes frame pairs of chapters. The first addresses disciplinarity through works that critically reflect upon their discipline’s tools, techniques, and conventions juxtaposed against projects that cite or use other art forms and cultural phenomena as source material. The second interrogates space and the role of spatial dispositifs, institutions, and sites, and their hidden and not-so-hidden conditions, as conceptual drivers and structures to subvert, trouble, unsettle, remember. The third asks who and what dances, finding a spectrum from mobilized architectural bodies to more-than-human cybarcorps. Modes of collaboration and the temporalities and life cycles of projects inform bookending chapters. Architecture and Choreography offers vital lessons not only for architects and choreographers but also for students and practitioners across design and performance fields.

In the global context of the Great Acceleration, things and people have been on the move more than ever before. Moritz Frischkorn takes a fresh look at recent performing arts practices that deal with everyday objects on and beyond the stage. Contrasting these practices with the business field of logistics, he examines the aesthetic and ethical concerns of moving things. Drawing on concepts from performance as well as Black studies and philosophy, and based on an artistic-research methodology, the book formulates a notion of more-than-human choreography as an ecologically informed, infinitely indebted practice of living within the material world.

DREAMers and the Choreography of Protest tells the story of how a network of undocumented youth radicalized the immigrant rights movement in the United States. Based on interviews with lead activists, extensive archival research, and years of ethnographic study, Michael P. Young traces the key events shaping DREAMer activism from 2006 to 2014. Chronicling a sequence of escalating protests--from sit-ins to detention center infiltrations and border crossing actions--Young argues that this audacious choreography of protest inspired and shaped a social movement of and for undocumented immigrants.

This manuscript is a template about “Whistle Blowing” in an organization designed for economist voters. “Court of Record” shows the author’s stand on truth for the protection of our children due to threats by various translations of either Biblical or religious texts to making them illegitimate bargaining chips. Administratively, our CF uniforms leave women open to degradation. My license to a privilege of marriage, in contrast to the construction of Capital investment involving conjugal relationships has shown a discrepancy between words like dower and dowry for those of us entitled to a sign of respect under our National Flag. Additionally and historically, the necessity for the Maple Leaf as opposed to corporeal punishment of both men and women in an area of Correctional Institutions should have supported the belief that even a low ranking officer is still an officer deserving of merit without question. This manuscript draws on the parallels of lives met with those of the solid angle of a mathematical omega. It also factually documents that I am not responsible for the red book of criminal codes given to my son. I am, however, responsible for the welfare of his name’s sake in Canada. The Red Book is a preventable threat to my family and to every man, woman and child. The local law enforcement, supporting the LGBT-Q flag, has gone too far using our resources against us as a type of entrapment where women have no say: Period.
