This paper is structured around two strategic blocks (introduction and closing) and two thematic blocks (slums and neighborhoods; creativity and research) on which PAIDI HUM-958 IN-GENTES (Research in generating of territories) research group investigations have been organized and managed. The first section specifies the strategic phases that the group has experienced since its creation in 2007 until today. This will then be used as the basis for explicit the research carried out in two fields that emerge with a greater presence and continuity.

Agradeço a CAPES -Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior que, através da bolsa de estudos fornecida pelo Programa de Demanda Social, possibilitou a conclusão desta pesquisa de mestrado. Agradeço a todos aqueles que me auxiliaram significativamente durante esses dois anos e que contribuíram para a viabilização desta pesquisa. anterior. Pelo contrário, o verdadeiro processo de construção envolve simultaneamente uma espécie de demolição, que implica a aceitação do medo. Toda demolição cria um espaço perigoso, no qual há menos suportes e menos apoios.

A partir de una epistemología de la invisibilidad, esta investigación propone aperturar un conocimiento desde la cotidianeidad de lo educativo (Jackson, 1999), sin violentar la complejidad de la experiencia. El marco de la investigación es Aula Abierta (AA): una forma de hacer que propone abrir las aulas a la heterogeneidad de los sujetos, tendiendo a la desterritorialización del aula física y simbólica (Castro, Rodríguez y Urteaga, 2016; Encina y Ezeiza, 2016). El objetivo es mostrar cómo emerge la creatividad colectiva en acciones imprevisibles que tienden a construir convivencialidad (Calvo, 2010; Cabitza, Simone, y Cornetta, 2015), a través de la reconstrucción de unidades de sentido (González, 2006). Se investigó un curso de la Universidad Autónoma de la Ciudad de México, con tres herramientas cualitativas: 1) grupos de recuerdo colectivo; 2) análisis de la expresión de la voz propia; y, 3) temporalidad de las relaciones. Encontramos que las aperturas de AA provocan discontinui...

A wide selection of informal and non-formal learning options has been developed during the last couple of decades by many schools of Architecture and non-educational bodies to accumulate creative potential of students and give them the opportunity to express themselves in alternative learning environments. These options include summer schools, short-term brainstorming actions, competitions, and other activities focusing on interdisciplinary approach, teamwork and intense discussions with professionals from various fields not directly involved in the formal education process.Considering high popularity of non-formal learning activities and many students involved, it is important to evaluate the respective experience to estimate whether and how abilities and skills acquired through non-formal learning could benefit to those requested by the formal education programmes.The paper discusses the role and methods of non-formal education in Architecture with an aim to identify particular go...

Collective creativity is the product of a collaborative process, consisting of multiple interactions between group members and the shared content, which lead to the emergence of novel shared meanings. This exploratory research addresses the expression of collective creativity in multi-participant asynchronous online discussions, by proposing interactivity and emergence as key features of the collaborative creative process. The ability to connect posts in a non-sequential manner ("cross-linking") is suggested as the basis for the formation of emergent community-structures within the content, which reflect collectively constructed novel combinations. Initial indications for this process are presented by applying a combination of network analysis and qualitative inquiry to data from a multiparticipant virtual discussion, held as part of an online academic course. A methodology for extracting emergent themes is described.

This study investigates music and dance in ancient India based on the materiality and knowledge provided by the Nāṭyaśāstra. It aims to develop an approach that evaluates the performative aspects of materiality by using concepts from classical Indian performing arts for its interpretation. We engage with decolonial criticism to construct a method that epistemologically and referentially shifts the production of knowledge in archaeology in Indian. Mignolo (2008), Chen (2010), and de Freitas (2016) are used as theoretical references. The developed method is structured in three stages: analysis of representation body structures, referential analysis of the Nāṭyaśāstra, and Interpretation. This study uses three case studies with scenarios in which dance  and music configure the subject of materiality; dance and music, the context of material production; and no direct connection exists between dance and music and materiality. Thus, results highlight the effectiveness of the proposed method, showing how the use of Nāṭyaśāstra for archaeological and archaeomusicological analysis and interpretation opens us to interpretations anchored in an imaginary specific to Indian culture.

Este ebook apresenta os resultados de estudos em um conjunto de registros audiovisuais de treinamento para intérpretes conduzidos pelo multiartista Hugo Rodas (1939-2022). Por meses esses registros foram elencados, analisados, transcritos por uma pequena, mas atuante equipe. Tal esforço foi financiado pelo Fundo de Apoio à Cultura do Distrito Federal, como forma de tornar acessível um know-how gerado aqui em nossa cidade, relacionado à formação de agentes criativos que trabalham no diálogo entre teatro e música

Los problemas de conservación del arte digital se han sucedido en las últimas décadas. Estos han llevado a justificar la baja representación del arte asociado a las nuevas tecnologías en los museos de arte contemporáneo. La ausencia de protocolos claros en la conservación del arte digital y el enorme esfuerzo económico y técnico que ésta supone han llevado a una situación de extrema precariedad de la imagen digital. La irrupción de los NFTs y la tecnología blockchain parece ofrecer una oportunidad para subsanar las debilidades asociadas a las características de los nuevos medios. La temporalidad, obsolescencia, dinamismo e inestabilidad de este tipo de obras han puesto en entredicho su posibilidad de perdurar en el tiempo. El objetivo es aclarar si la estructura de datos y metadatos asociados a las transacciones en el blockchain solucionan o no el reto de proteger a la imagen digital de su desaparición. Nos encontraríamos así ante una potencial opción de conservación del patrimonio digital.

The problems of digital art preservation have been recurrent in the last decades. These have led to justify the under representation of art associated with new technologies in contemporary art museums. The absence of clear protocols in the conservation of digital art and the significant economic and technical effort that it would entail have led to a situation of extreme precariousness of the digital image. The irruption of NFTs and blockchain technology seems to offer an opportunity to remedy the weaknesses associated with the characteristics of new media. The temporality, obsolescence, dynamism and instability of this type of works have called into question their possibility of enduring over time. The aim is to clarify whether the structure of data and metadata associated with transactions in the blockchain solve the challenge of protecting digital images from disappearance. Like this we could be in front of a potential new way of preservation of digital heritage.

O presente ensaio estabelece uma analise historica e conceitual do uso de imagens audiovisuais projetadas em cenas de teatro e estabelece relacoes com os conceitos de videocenario, teatro multimidia, teatro hipermidia e os possiveis desdobramentos e variacoes de tais conceitos. Tal analise conceitual serve como fundamento teorico para analisar a relacao entre teatro e video na atualidade, inserida em um recorte temporal da producao teatral brasileira e internacional. O recorte compreende espetaculos teatrais (com insercoes de imagens projetadas) realizados entre os anos de 1960 e 2012. Serao apresentados alguns casos do referido recorte, com a funcao de ilustrar e demonstrar a pratica constante do uso de imagens projetadas em cenas teatrais e sua relacao e contribuicao para as tecnicas e poeticas da montagem audiovisual. O objetivo principal e compreender a contemporânea como um modo operativo para analisar o uso do video como recurso criativo para as artes da presenca, que trata da...

This video essay is the result of a co-creation process carried out for six months with vulnerable teenagers who participated in a film workshop informed by a communitarian feminist epistemology in Toro, Colombia. Our aim, as co-creators of this process, is to collectivize the potencies of an emancipatory thought through images, sounds, and words in the face of gender-based violence that continues to take place in Latin America, particularly in the small city of Toro (a marginalized town witness to the violence resulting from drug trafficking). We also aim to affirm academic filmmaking as a propitious space for the consolidation of a material thought that relocates the body to the center of its motivations and movements. Our ambition has been to affirm academic filmmaking as a gesture of social justice, as well as a way of revitalizing and decolonizing the university.

Invisibilidad, caos y creatividad colectiva: reconstrucción de coherencias emergentes y relacionalidad en procesos de aula abierta Invisibility, chaos and collective creativity: reconstruction of emergent coherences and relationality in open classroom processes Emiliano Urteaga Urías

Este artigo discorre acerca de uma metodologia desenvolvida por Edimilson Braga, durante o programa de Mestrado Profissional em Artes (Prof-Artes) com área de concentração em Ensino de Artes pela Universidade de Brasília (UnB) em 2023. Trata-se de procedimentos para o desenvolvimento de habilidades e competências para a composição de personagens por meio da hibridação entre os princípios da pré-expressividade, a tipologia postulada do teatro Nô, os fundamentos específicos do Systema (Arte Marcial Russa) e a preparação física utilizada no Kempô Indiano. O Noh (Nô) é um gênero de teatro medieval japonês, que se tornou popular especialmente no século XIV, mas ainda é performado atualmente.

On his second voyage, James Cook was accompanied by the scientist Johann Reinhold Forster and the latter's son Georg. In their writings about the circumnavigation a particularly complex relationship between father and son, and between the Forsters and Captain Cook emerges. The essay will explore the collaborative strategies developed by Georg and Johann Reinhold Forster, in which a kind of 'transference' between Georg and Johann Reinhold can be observed, and how this is reflected in their respective writing strategies.

A crítica analisa o espetáculo Jacy do Grupo Carmin de Natal que esteve em cartaz no Espaço SESC-Copacabana de 25 de fevereiro a 20 de março desse ano, atentando para o modo como o espetáculo conduz a narrativa ficcional da obra se avizinhando de uma escrita historiográfica e ensaística. O objetivo da análise é a de compreender como o grupo constrói um espetáculo que coaduna reflexão sobre a História e construção poética.

Comitê Temático Dança, memória e história Resumo: Embora em suas obras dramático-musicais Richard Wagner tenha reduzido a participação de cenas de dança (ballet), em seus textos teóricos ele defende o movimento como fundamento de uma unidade das artes da dança, da música e da poesia, isso a partir do legado helênico revisitado. Este ideal multissensorial da obra de arte do futuro a partir do movimento encontro eco nas obras de Isadora Duncan, Rudolph Laban e Mary Wigman que tanto procuram uma arte total quanto dançaram e coreografaram partes dos dramas musicais wagnerianos (Ross, 2020). Nesta comunicação, é reconstituída e contextualizada a argumentação wagneriana em torno da dança como protoestética a partir de A obra de arte do futuro, de 1850, e as transformações dessa argumentação em função do projeto do Anel, especialmente teorizado em Ópera e Drama, de 1851. A partir do projeto da tetralogia, há em Wagner a passagem de funções multissensoriais atribuídas a um grupo físico de performers para a orquestra (grupo instrumental musical). A coralização da orquestra busca tornar perceptíveis os efeitos cosmobiológicos do coro primordial. Enfim, a coralização da orquestra em Wagner aproxima sons, movimentos e dramaturgia, apontando para diversas possibilidades criativas, as quais não se confinam a eventos puramente musicais.

This work proposes the collective creativity processes for the creation of light architectures developed through advanced geometry. The aim is to provide contemporary solutions to citizen management areas. Nowadays, this type of urban areas is flourishing and seems to be interesting for parametric design and digital production to offer solutions to certain social needs via “High Tech” and “Low Cost” architectures created by collaborative processes

In landscape design a vertical section is a representation that, comparatively, is less used than in architecture. However, given the current complexity of urban intervention, the section is a graphical tool of analytical and communicative interest to complement the information that plants give us. The paper is structured in three parts: the first presents the theoretical-conceptual framework of the research, in the second, some notable examples are studied, and in the third, a photomontage exercise is carried out in a course with students of landscaping.

This paper presents a bibliometric study of the relationship between business games and creativity and points out gaps in the proposal of research topics. For this, we performed a detailed analysis of 64 articles obtained through a systematic review of the literature, gathered from the Scopus and Web of Science platforms in the areas of business and engineering, published between 1970 and 2016. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis with the support of the affinity matrix. The results identify: 1) the main research method in this theme is the case study with a qualitative approach; 2) the United States, Canada and China are the countries that publish the most; 3) there has been an increase in publications on this topic in recent years; 4) the main sector for application of studies on this theme is the educational one, followed by the business sector; and 5) considering both creativity and business games, exploratory studies are predominant. For future research it is recommended: 1) to analyze the influence of creativity principles in business games; 2) research what are the constituent elements of a business game; 3) investigate how a game can stimulate or mediate the creative process of its participants.
