  2. 11. Organoleptic Interfaces: Exploring Embodied Methods in Foodscapes

    Author : Anna Maria Orru; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; urban-making; embodiment; artistic-based research; foodscapes; relational assemblages; deeper commitment to environment; performativity; imagineering; critical cartography; choreography; performativity;

    Abstract : In the move to re-acquaint urban green and in-between spaces as solely parks and open spaces, this research looks to the concept of emerging foodscapes to form a transformative behaviour with food in the city. Urban population growth, unstable food security, environmental consequences of industrial food production are all motives for concern, alongside individual awareness of food provisioning, seasonal availability and behaviour.

  4. 12. The Aesthetics of Movement : Variations on Gilles Deleuze and Merce Cunningham

    Author : Camilla Damkjaer; Sven Åke Heed; Niels Overgaard Lehmann; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; interdisciplinary studies; Gilles Deleuze; Merce Cunningham; John Cage; Félix Guattari; Francis Bacon; dance; philosophy; movement; choreography; the body; heterogeneity; juxtaposition; representation; happening; chance.; Theatre; Teatervetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis is an interdisciplinary study of the aesthetics of movement in Gilles Deleuze’s writings and in Merce Cunningham’s choreographies. But it is also a study of the movement that arises when the two meet in a series of variations, where also their respective working partners Félix Guattari and John Cage enter. READ MORE

  5. 13. The choreography of protein vibrations : Improved methods of observing and simulating the infrared absorption of proteins

    Author : Eeva-Liisa Karjalainen; Andreas Barth; Astrid Gräslund; Timothy A. Keiderling; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Infrared spectroscopy; FTIR; protein; atpase; amyloid; caged compound; amide I; transition dipole coupling; exciton theory; simulation; Molecular biophysics; Molekylär biofysik; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis has striven toward improving the capability to study proteins using infrared (IR) spectroscopy. This includes development of new and improved experimental and theoretical methods to selectively observe and simulate protein vibrations. READ MORE

  6. 14. Orchestrating timbre – Unfolding processes of timbre and memory in improvisational piano performance

    Author : Magdalena Mayas; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; extended timbre; improvisation; composition; inside piano; prepared piano; listening; timbral memory; spatialization; gesture; choreography; musical perception; embodied musical performance; artistic research;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis presents how the orchestration of timbre is investigated from a performer’s perspective as means to “unfold” improvisational processes. It is grounded in my practice as a pianist in the realm of improvised music, in which I often use preparations and objects as extensions of the instrument. READ MORE

  7. 15. Choreography of a proton pump : Studies of charge-transfer reactions in cytochrome c oxidase

    Author : Jóhanna Vilhjálmsdóttir; Peter Brzezinski; Joachim Heberle; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heme-copper oxidase; cytochrome c oxidase; respiration; proton pump; electron transfer; proton transfer; proton-transfer pathway; midpoint potential; proton-pumping mechanism; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : In the last step of cellular respiration, electrons from metabolites are transferred to molecular oxygen, mediated by the enzyme complexes of the respiratory chain. Some of these enzyme complexes couple these redox reactions to formation of an electrochemical proton gradient across the cell membrane. The proton gradient is used e.g. READ MORE
