Paul Klee, a German artist, highlighted the eternal struggle of human beings to synthesize the “inner vision” with “outside experience.” “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”-Michelangelo “Beauty is the illumination of the soul!”-Poet-Theologian O’Donohue, Art & the Unconscious Psyche-Psychic Life Carl Jung…[Read more]

welche grundlegenden Techniken es in der Visualisierung von fünf verschiedenen Bereichen (Text, Raum, Sequenzen, Netzwerke und Quantitäten) gibt, und diese in jeweils zwe…[Read more]

Karen Armstrong, In her book, The Case For God, opens with the discussion of the 300 plus caves in Southern France and Northern Spain which have amazingly artistic ‘prehistoric’ cave paintings of prehistoric animals many of whom are now extinct, some dating to 30,000 years ago. “In all there are about six hundred frescoes and fifteen hundred engra…[Read more]

Mapping fields using co-citation information is a common endeavour in many disciplines but has rarely been performed in the humanities. In this article, I use data from 417 back-of-book source indices to map the field of ancient Mediterranean religion on three levels: sub-discipline, ancient work, and references in ancient works. The method…[Read more]

The act of classification has the widest implications for scholarship. Whatever the format, it involves the totality of our being. The use of our eyes indicates that decisions about whatever it is that we observe have already been made. Yet the interaction between the mechanical act of seeing and the mind or memory has rarely been registered. An…[Read more]

Some thoughts on Boris Eldagsen’s Image, well ‘photograph’, an AI generated image.

Review of the literature on pictograph sites in the Canadian Shield with specific reference to those found in the Lake of the Woods, in north-western Ontario, Canada.

This article argues that the analysis of a threedimensional image demanded a three-dimensional approach. The authors realise that discussions of images and image processing inveterately conceptualise representation as being flat, static, and finite. The authors recognise the need for a fresh acuteness to three-dimensionality as a meaningful – a…[Read more]

As educators, we are all familiar with Bloom’s Taxonomy and the way it progressively maps the cognitive activities involved in learning and constructing knowledge. Too often, however, we educators who work in writing-focused curricula ask our students to work in the higher-order cognitive domains of analysis and creation without necessarily giving…[Read more]

In courses that end in summative final exams or capstone projects, it can be challenging to get students to pull back and identify the learning that they’ve done across an entire unit or semester rather than only focus on the learning they’ve undertaken most recently. As part of our larger sequence of active-learning-based lesson plans designed to…[Read more]

आज तकनीक पर कामचलताऊ ढ़ंग से लिखने-बोलने से से काम नहीं चलेगा, जैसा कि हिंदी बुद्धिजीवी अभी कर रहे हैं। बल्कि इस बारे में हल्की-फुल्की भाषा में सामग्री पढ़ने की चाह रखने से भी बाज आना चाहिए। चलताऊ भाषा में आप नए उपकरणों की गुणवत्ता की, उनके उपयोग आदि की जानकारी ले-दे सकते हैं। किसी स्मार्ट उपकरण समीक्षाएं पढ़कर उसे खरीदने या न खरीदने का फैसला कर…[Read more]

In this essay, we share how a small, independent, academic open access (OA) press, punctum books, has survived and can maybe thrive financially, but also in terms of human quality of life dividends, in the very precarious landscape of making and funding open books. Tracing the history of the press and our bumpy road to better financial…[Read more]

Bukod sa musika at sining, nagpapakita ako ng isang magaspang na balangkas para sa pananaw sa ilang pwersonal na espirituwal-psychic na karanasan.+. “Ang musika ay isang pangunahing bahagi ng ating ebolusyon; marahil ay kumanta kami bago kami magsalita sa mga pangungusap na may gabay na sintaktik. Ang kanta ay kinakatawan sa buong mundo ng h…[Read more]

.“MUSIC is a fundamental part of our evolution; we probably sang before we spoke in syntactically guided sentences. Song is represented across animal worlds; birds and whales produce sounds, though not always melodic to our ears, but still rich in semantically communicative functions. Song is not surprisingly tied to a vast array of semiotics t…[Read more]

This essay derives from a conference paper in Spanish titled Figuras de Epimeteo, which revisited interpretations of the Greek myth of Epimetheus, the forgetful brother of Prometheus and the forgotten husband of Pandora. Ivan Illich (1922-2002) and Bernard Stiegler (1952-2020) borrowed the figure of Epimetheus in the process of elaborating an…[Read more]

Citizenship and the posthuman have not been often theorized together. In this paper, I want to think about their coalition both as a new episode in the efforts of politics for citizenship, including knowledge politics, and as a source of rebalancing power against governmental and corporate interests in citizenship politics. Here, I seek to address…[Read more]
