In this article, I examine how selected basic exercises in drama and theater practice activate the theatrical body – in the tension between the disciplined and playful body. The study examines the student's experience and the drama teacher's own practice. The data is from the research project "Democratic and aesthetic space", which consists of videotapes of basic exercises, student interviews and a research journal from fieldwork with two groups of 7th grade students. The concept of embodied literacy (Frambaugh-Kritzer et al., 2015) is discussed and Foucault and Gadamer's theories are used in perspectives on the disciplined and the playful body. The study shows that activating the theatrical body involves training in presence, interaction, response and receptivity with the body as meaning-creating tools and communicative idiom. At the same time, some basic exercises can result in caricaturing of already stereotyped ideas about role categories. Further, the fictional framework of the basic exercises through the "theatrical gaze" gives students opportunities in the "playspace" to activate the theatrical body. Focusing on spontaneity and reducing blockages is important for strengthening students' practices of the self. I want to expand the discourse and place drama and theater practice into an expanded physical activity perspective.
在这篇文章中,我研究了戏剧和戏剧实践中选择的基本练习是如何激活戏剧身体的——在纪律和游戏身体之间的紧张关系中。本研究考察了学生的经验和戏剧教师自己的实践。数据来自“民主与审美空间”研究项目,该项目包括基本练习的录像带、学生访谈和两组七年级学生实地考察的研究日志。本文讨论了具身素养的概念(Frambaugh-Kritzer et al., 2015),并将福柯和伽达默尔的理论用于研究纪律和游戏身体的角度。研究表明,激活戏剧身体包括以身体为意义创造工具和交际习语的在场、互动、反应和接受训练。与此同时,一些基本的练习可能导致对角色类别已经定型的想法的讽刺。进一步,通过“戏剧凝视”的基本练习的虚构框架,使学生有机会在“游戏空间”中激活戏剧身体。注重自发性,减少障碍对于加强学生的自我实践很重要。我想扩展话语,将戏剧和戏剧实践置于一个扩展的体育活动视角中。

This article is about the participatory performance event Speak for yourself (Snakk for deg sjol) performed mainly for teenagers at schools through the Norwegian Cultural Schoolbag program (Den kulturelle skolesekken), but also for an open audience at Halogaland Theatre and the Arctic Arts Festival. The center of the discussion concerns what has agency to initiate various ways of participation and produce a zone of potential in this performance event. The author is one of the artists of the performance and thus the diffractive analysis is informed by her role as artist-researcher. The study’s theoretical framework is inspired by the theory of agential realism from physician and feminist theorist Karen Barad. The analysis suggests that the initiation of participation is a complex process influenced by both human and non-human performative agents in intra-action with each other. This study will especially focus on the formulation of exercises, performance objects, social media, multiplicity and affect t as performative agents in this performance event. The study indicates that being attentive to the performative agents at play and the kind of participation they produce can potentially create a space where there is room for inclusion, diversity, and unpredictability. This kind of zone of potential also has value for other participatory projects in the intersection between pedagogy and art.
这篇文章是关于参与性表演活动“为自己说话”(Snakk for deg sjol),主要是通过挪威文化书包计划(Den kulturelle skolesekken)在学校为青少年表演,但也在Halogaland剧院和北极艺术节为公开观众表演。讨论的中心是,在这个表演事件中,是什么力量启动了各种参与方式,并产生了一个潜在的区域。作者是表演的艺术家之一,因此衍射分析是由她作为艺术家-研究者的角色所决定的。该研究的理论框架受到了代理现实主义理论的启发,该理论由医生和女权主义理论家卡伦·巴拉德提出。分析表明,参与的启动是一个复杂的过程,受到人类和非人类行为主体相互作用的影响。本研究将特别关注练习的制定、表演对象、社交媒体、多样性和影响作为表演主体在表演事件中的作用。该研究表明,关注正在发挥作用的行为主体及其产生的参与类型,可以潜在地创造一个包容、多样性和不可预测性的空间。这种潜在的区域也有价值的其他参与性项目之间的交叉教育和艺术。

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a key enabler of the digital mutation of our society. Driven by various services and applications, Machine Type Communications (MTC) will become an integral part of our daily life, over the next few years. Meeting the ITU-T requirements, in terms of density, battery longevity, coverage, price, and supported mechanisms and functionalities, Cellular IoT, and particularly Narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT), is identified as a promising candidate to handle massive MTC accesses. However, this massive connectivity would pose a huge challenge for network operators in terms of scalability. Indeed, the connection to the network in cellular IoT passes through a random access procedure and a high concentration of IoT devices would, very quickly, lead to a bottleneck. The latter procedure needs, then, to be enhanced as the connectivity would be considerable. With this in mind, we propose, in this paper, to apply the access class barring (ACB) mechanism to regulate the number of devices competing for the access. In order to derive the blocking factor, we formulated the access problem as a Markov decision process that we were able to solve using one of the most advanced deep reinforcement learning techniques. The evaluation of the proposed access control, through simulations, shows the effectiveness of our approach compared to existing approaches such as the adaptive one and the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller. Indeed, it manages to keep the proportion of access attempts close to the optimum, despite the lack of accurate information on the number of access attempts.

The Option is well known as one of the typical financial derivatives. In order to determine the price of this option, the finite difference method is used, which must be calculated using the Black―Scholes partial differential equation. In this paper, efficient computation is performed for tridiagonal Toeplitz linear equations which is needed when solving Black―Scholes partial differential equation. Let size of discretization with time is n, and size of discretization for property's value is m, we propose a method to find the solution with the required number of parallel steps of 4n log m, and the required number of processors m + log m.

This article builds upon an ethnographic study of how young people growing up in cross-cultural contexts perform their musical agency (Strøm, 2016). The twofold focus of the article concerns the ways in which the pop duo GunnInga perform their collective musical agency as well as how they strengthen their friendship and fulfill their artist dreams through informal musical practices. The theoretical framework of the article builds upon Stones’s (2005) strong structuration theory. The analysis is structured using Karlsen’s (2011) musical agency lens as a point of departure. In line with Liamputtong’s (2010) request to cross-cultural researchers, the analysis also applies a poem as an analytical tool. The term cross-cultural is applied to situate the pop duo in a context characterized by diversity in terms of both nationalities and options when it comes to activities, concerts, projects, workshops and so on, offered by both municipal and private cultural agents attempting to respond to this reality.

Samandrag I kunstog forskingsprosjektet Samarbeid mellom små og store vesen samarbeida ei gruppe born og ein kunstnar om å skapa eit kunstverk. Intensjonen med prosjektet var å utforska om likeverd og horisontalitet i kunstproduksjon beståande av asymmetriske relasjonar er mogleg. Med bakgrunn i deltakande observasjon, intervju og fotodokumentasjon drøfter artikkelen ulike former for samarbeid som viste seg i kunstproduksjonsprosessen, og kunstverket som kom ut av samarbeidet. Utforskinga av om likeverd og horisontalitet er mogleg i samarbeid mellom store og små i kunstproduksjon syner at forsøka enda nettopp som forsøk på horisontalitet, snarare enn faktisk horisontalitet. Artikkelen diskuterer vidare korleis prosess og resultat kan vurderast i deltakarbaserte kunstprosjekt generelt, og i dette prosjektet spesielt. Erfaringar frå Samarbeid mellom små og store vesen indikerer ei gjensidig avhengigheit mellom estetiske og sosiale aspekt. Artikkelen problematiserer difor om det estetiske let seg skilja frå det sosiale i kvalitetsvurderingar, mellom anna med referanse til Claire Bishop, Grant Kester og David Bell.

Sammendrag Dette essayet stiller spørsmål ved hvordan vi organiserer ting og kunnskaper. Inngangen er fortidens wunderkamre, spesifisert gjennom en bok av Samuel Quiccheberg fra 1565, samt bruken av et cellekontor i dag. Quicchebergs bok er beskrevet som den første avhandling som ser på hvordan en skal organisere samlinger. Cellekontoret har også sine ting og sin organisering, og dets subversive bruk er aktuell på grunn av vår tids debatter rundt kontorlandskap og aktivitetsbaserte arbeidsplasser. Essayet er satt sammen av flere mindre tekster med ulike språkdrakt. Her gis ingen svar på formulerte problemstillinger, men essayets søkende form er brukt som en metode for å se etter utenkte sammenhenger.

I dette essayet utforsker jeg hva kunstnerisk utviklingsarbeid kan bety for meg som romanforfatter og som skrivekunstner. Utgangspunktet er ungdomsromanen Stillheten etterpå (2018), og jeg er særlig opptatt av hvordan litterære personer blir til. I teksten henter jeg eksempler fra flere romaner jeg har skrevet, men bakteppet er ungdomsromanen. Jeg uttrykker skepsis til å skrive om egen (skjønnlitterær) skriving, men i løpet av arbeidet med dette essayet kommer jeg et stykke på vei. For eksempel gjør jeg rede for hvordan skifte av synsvinkel er en metode jeg har nytte av. Men noe forblir uforklarlig, og slik må det være.

Life in affluent, big city society with huge amounts of easily accessible food results in extensive food waste on different levels, causing greenhouse gas emissions. The aim of this article is to explore and discuss whether—and if so, how—an urban art action may contribute to displacement in social food practices. Using the Swedish artist Andrea Hvistendahl’s ongoing project No Waste Cooking as a case study, I approach this art action through Jacques Rancière’s concept of politics as distribution and redistribution of the sensible. The most important research questions are: How is No Waste Cooking involved in redistributing social food waste practices? How is the project related to similar projects in visual culture? No Waste Cooking concerns saving and upgrading food from grocery stores that would otherwise be thrown away. As an urban gleaner, Hvistendahl gathers this food and intervenes between grocery stores and consumers, creating a space for leftovers, sensations and reflections. Food after its expiration date has become the fulcrum, the third thing, a common reference in which the artist, the visitors, as well as the readers are invited to reassess our values and behavior patterns on food, and elaborate and develop further discussion and proliferation. In this sense, No Waste Cooking has a didactic function, displaying ethical questions and possible ways to
