Cinematic spaces are defined by their ability to create new spaces through reorganizing physical environments, a process facilitated by cinema. Directors use unique spaces in their films to convey specific themes and emotions. In Pelin Esmer's İşe Yarar Bir Şey (Something Useful, 2017), the train serves as the setting for the film's initial segment, offering views of external lives from within through the window. This prompts individuals to reflect, question their existence, and experience diverse emotional states. The objective of this study, which examines the 2017 film Something Useful, is to analyze the spaces utilized and the spatial experiences of the protagonists at the threshold by examining them through the lenses of Gaston Bachelard's (1994) concepts of home, Stavroz Stavrides's (2010) notion of the threshold, and Michel Foucault's (2008) concept of heterotopia. The train, as an example of heterotopia, facilitates a transition to the protagonists' inner world while observing the external world. This space is characterized by a different experience of time, functioning as a transitional space that is both physical and metaphorical. It is marked by threshold elements, such as glass, which delineate and symbolize the space's function as a conduit between inner and outer realms. The house is an uncanny space for existential inquiries and suicide. It's a mix of cosmos and chaos.

Based on the idea of influence and mutual influence in the visual arts, And the effect of this on the enrichment of ideas and maturity of creativity. the research deals with some samples of the textiles of the Wissa Wassef Center, which express the Egyptian environment in sharp flattening of the elements. The applied aspect deals with the idea of merging and mixing the flat and the stereoscopic to achieve a single organic unit These textiles were employed as flat backgrounds for the anthropomorphic human element that merged with it in a state of oneness and transferred with it to a parallel world that mixes the contradictory elements in one unit. The experiment was carried out on 12 panels using oil paint on wooden boards. The researcher used the technique of scraping, deleting, and adding with a knife to the palette, which increased the sense of texture and created confusion between being woven or drawn on a real Wassef textile. The researcher tried to preserve the composition, elements, and colors of the original texture while reducing some of the details that might harm the final design of the painting. The paintings were divided into three groups (pendants - on the edge - coexist). The paintings dealt with the theme of the contemporary woman who is tired and burdened search for moments of calm and tranquility and giving herself the opportunity to contemplate beauty to catch her breath and regain with the virgin nature and her simple creatures. The poses of women in composition were inspired by ancient Egyptian art and the tree of life.

This work is the manifestation of the transformation of Zaimie bin Sahibil’s painting, Barracuda Series, into musical form. The Barracuda Series painting presents the beauty and richness of the ocean bed as a utopian paradigm of the maritime ecology of the coastal community of Sabah, Malaysia. The composer was inspired by his own aesthetic experience when appreciating the painting. This aesthetic experience became the material object that was treated with the concept of media transposition and turned into a musical composition. The media transposition was implemented through the interpretation and transformation of the external and internal structural levels of the Barracuda Series painting. These elements were adapted to create musical elements as a form of innovation in the way the composition was created. the creation of this work involved a number of work stages that were implemented constructively through a method of creation. These stages included: an analysis of data sources, experimentation, contemplation, composition, and formation. The work process utilized the results of extra-aesthetic interpretation and intra-aesthetic transformation to create an innovative musical text. The musical composition Tornado in the Sea uses the instrumentation of piano, violin, and kalimba. The stages of creation included an analysis of data sources, experimentation, contemplation, arrangement, formation, and execution.

In recent decades, due to the deterioration of environmental conditions worldwide, attention has been given to environmental and ecological issues by theorists, planners and urban designers. Urban Place experts are no exception. The aim of this study was to provide a conceptual model to explain the relationship between urban place theory and landscape ecology and then turn this model into a pattern. In the pattern presented in this research, using the landscape ecology approaches, the creation of an urban place has been done by determining the position of the components involved in it. The model presented in this study as Eco Place Pattern has four Physical, Activity, Meaning and Ecological components. There are a number of criteria for each component, which include twelve criteria. These criteria include: Landscape Ecology, Accessibility, Human Scale, Readability, Flexibility, Visual Beauty, Environmental Comfort, Security and Safety, Activity, Attention to Economics, Sensational Richness and Identity. The Shohada-ye Khalij-e Fars Lake was selected as case study and it compliance with the Eco Place pattern was investigated by ANP method. The results of the studies show the extent of it high compliance with the proposed model, but due to the importance of changes in the landscape ecology principles, modification of ecological trends in order not to reduce the quality of these urban places is recommended.

Abstract Introduction By the emergence of Modernity in Iran in Qajar Era many intellectuals believed in developing reformations in Iran’s Community. Besides reformations, the society of Iran should be awakened from deep sleep by thinking transformation and reach Modernity and this issue is evident in all works of intellectuals in Qajar. Undoubtedly many trips of intellectuals of this era to European countries have influenced their thoughts. Pre-constitutional intellectuals enumerated the reasons for Iran’s mustiness as despotisms, lack of legal governance, invasion of Arabs to Iran and finally religion and superstitions. So they tried to find a solution for solving these problems. They became familiar with modern government elements in West and proposed some solutions for mustiness of Iran like: reformation of governance structure, making law, reformation or changing the procedure, renewing ancient traditions, eliminating or reforming religion, etc. the thoughts of these intellectuals aren’t limited to a same realm of meaning and the method of each case is different for solving the problems of the country. However, their thought is related to modern governance. Among the pre-constitutional intellectuals is Mirza Agha Khan Kermani. He found out the reasons for Iran’s mustiness by observing western countries’ situation and comparing it with Iran. He became aware of Modern governance elements and criticized traditional situation of society of Iran and tried to find a solution for solving this crisis.   Methodology The current paper is based on analytical-descriptive method and governance theory of Michel Foucault and examines perception of Mirza Agha Khan Kermani of nature of Modern governance on the basis of his work, seven treatises.  The problem is that what are the basics of modern governance in the thought of Mirza Agha Khan Kermani? The hypothesis of this paper is that Mirza Agha Khan Kermani criticized the nature of traditional system of Iran and his different perceptions of Modernity and modern governance led to a different interpretation of mustiness. About the research literature we should say that some works have been written about thoughts of Mirza Agha Khan Kermani that the most important ones are Facing with Modernity by Abdollah Ansari, Basics of Modern Government in Thinkers’ Perspective in Constitutional Era by Shah Mohammadi, Thoughts of Mirza Agha Khan Kermani by Feridon Adamiyat. These works have examined dimensions of Mirza Agha Khan Kermani’s thought.   Discussion Mirza Agha Khan Kermani is one of the intellectuals of Qajar Era. His thought is full of nationalism, documenting the governance right of nation, freedom, fighting with Russian and English colonialism, fighting with despotism, litigation, human rights, Islamic unity thought and criticizing social situation (Ajoudani, 2014: 79). He criticized the nature of traditional system in Iran and his different thinking tendencies have influenced his perception of Modernity and modern governance elements. This has caused that he has a different perception to lagging behind. One of the modern governance factors in his thoughts is national government. He considers the reason of the emergence of government the human being’s requirement to meet his needs and necessity of cooperation with others in meeting them. In his opinion (Kermani, 1945: 69) establishing a society and necessity of leader I the factor of people’s solidarity and prevents disunion in society and it is considered as main motivation of community to modernity.  Kermani considers government a necessary tool for society progress (Kermani, 280). His attitude to government represents establishing a legal system based on Modernity because it is “legally bound” and its nation enjoys freedom rights (Kermani, 1933:162). He reprimands despotic traditional government as the people finally make a revolution. It doesn’t seem that he wants to transform all political structure and make a revolution in it but conversely, he is reformist and tries to avoid despotism. In his opinion the existence of law is the main technique for modern governance. Kermani focuses on law as the main element in reaching democracy in Iran and believes that it has been from the beginning and it has been eliminated by Arab attacks and their dominance to Iran (Kermani, 285). Mirza Agha Khan considers lawlessness of this event as the origin of all misfortunes of Iranians. One of the structural components in the transformation of Mirza Aga Khan's thought is the unpreparedness of the society and the illiteracy of the majority of the society. In this regard, he considers the basis of life and the basis of human civilization in science and knowledge and considers science impossible without education (Kermani, 1945: 16). He did not believe that Iran was useless in science; But with the invasion of this land by the Arabs, they destroyed their sciences and technologies and burned the books of Iran out of jealousy and ignorance and trampled on the sciences of Iran for several thousand years (Kermani, 1989: 23). The intense attacks that Mirza Aga Khan repeatedly pays attention to the ignorant Arabs and their customs and traditions in his works show his attention to the political system that ruled the situation in Iran at that time. In the face of the modern government in the West, Kermani considers the ruling tyranny as one of the reasons for the backwardness of the governments in Iran, which seeks power and has not paid attention to the development and education of the nation and deprives the people of their rights and freedoms. Kermani gives people legal rights (Kermani, Bita b: 74-73). According to him, the people should be aware of their rights and the nation should form a great force for itself against the strength of the government. His emphasis on the concept of the nation and the granting of equal rights demonstrates his efforts to involve the people in the political life of the country in order to achieve a modern government in society. Kermani has a broad view of women's rights among intellectuals before him, so much so that he pays special attention to women in all his works. In the field of women's rights, she believes that they should have equal rights with men: "Women should have equal rights with men and learn them from any science, technology and industry, and be aware of good and bad, and women should not wear hijab and not speak. He is not forbidden from having sex with a foreign man so that he does not produce any sins and obscene acts at all ”(Kermani, 1933: 10). Therefore, he considers women to have equal rights with men as a condition for the perfect progress of the human world.   Conclusion Mirza Aga Khan Kermani is one of the pioneers of modern government in Iran, who at the same time has tried to look at tradition in its historical context. His efforts to critique the past as an important component of his thought are influenced by the West. He can be considered an admirer of the ancient religion and cultural values ​​of Iran, which he tried to revive and to take the political foundations of the West, such as the establishment of national government, the expansion of social and political freedoms and finally the absolute separation of political institutions from religion. He emphasized. He brought government and religion together and considered the rule of law to be appropriate for Iranian society. Mirza Aga Khan's legacy not only reduced the role of tradition to advising the ruling system, but he also opposed and rejected the authoritarian system in the political sphere. Mirza Aga Khan Kermani, as one of the progressive intellectuals, called on the people to participate in the government and demanded the overthrow of the authoritarian government by the people.

Time and again, the Barcelona-based magazine Arquitecturas Bis (published from 1974 to 1985) has been studied and analyzed through the Italian-North American polarity, based on the linkages created with its contemporaries Oppositions (New York) and Lotus International (Milan). Among the members of its heterogeneous Editorial Board, Federico Correa (Barcelona, 1924) – in addition to his well-known Italian connections; explained since his very first contact with Gardella, Rogers, Albini, amongst others, within the Venice CIAM summer course in 1952; giving purpose to an influential genealogy for Catalan contemporary architecture that starts off in José Antonio Coderch (1913-1984) – was notable for its purpose in disseminating not only postwar 1960´s counterculture Central European architecture in Spain, but the Viennese turn-of-the-century avant-garde; promoting their exploited by the media theoretical ties. Furthermore, Vienna and its ‘middle-term’ architectures were for Correa unavoidable references for his own professional work, developed together with Alfonso Milà (1924-2009). All these facts brings us to understand how much that generation (educated in the Spanish and European post-war years) understood, dealing with the historiography of modern architecture, that architects had to stop not only in certain ‘middle-terms’ – as stated by Peter Collins, amongst other historians – but also aim to seek for continuities in order to explain the disjointed contemporaneity.

Derek Walcott’s epic Omeros focuses on its representation of myth and history; narrates the story of St. Lucia with reference to the history of wars and slavery and relates mythical references with common people of St. Lucia. This article analyzes the politics behind the use of myth and history of Caribbean by using alternative modernity vis-a-vis Caribbean discourse. Through mythical references, Walcott revives the native history of St. Lucia as an alternative to Western modernity resulted by the history of imperialism. This research concludes that Walcott, in this epic, valorizes the rich cultural heritage of St. Lucia and highlights the significance of ancestral legacy and the need of cultural revival against the domination of Western culture.

El arte colonial Guatemalteco surge, gracias a la constante relación de los pobladores del entonces nuevo continente con aquellos provenientes del continente europeo, esto propicio los intercambios artísticos-culturales, abriendo así una nueva posibilidad de desarrollo artístico de la sociedad, lo que se ve reflejado en los avances de las bellas artes en la época, en la implementación, perfeccionamiento e interpretación de la escultura, arquitectura y pintura, incluso en la creación de talleres con artistas nacionales. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue desarrollar, una lectura iconográfica de las pinturas más representativas de la época de la colonia en Guatemala, comprendida del siglo XVI al XVIII y que en la actualidad se exhiben en el museo de Arte colonial de Antigua Guatemala, creando un catálogo de las obras y así contribuir con los esfuerzos de documentar el arte nacional y la creación de bibliografía, con la cual se pueda guiar a los interesados en llevar a cabo lecturas iconográficas de obras pictoricas. Para colocar en contexto a cualquier persona que tenga acceso a la investigación, sea experta o no en arte se cuenta con un primer capítulo con toda la información básica sobre pintura, una cronología general de las tendencias a lo largo de la historia, sus posibles composiciones, técnicas y su relación con la religión. Se agrega un marco legal, pues los saqueos a los que se ha visto expuesto el patrimonio Guatemalteco y las dificultades experimentadas en el proceso para obtener acceso a las piezas estudiadas, nos obliga a conocer más la legislación que debería garantizar la protección de estas obras artísticas. Como cuarto paso se crea un contexto histórico, para colocar en sintonía al lector, sobre lo que sucedía en el momento de la creación de las obras, y como todo esto influía directamente en el arte y los temas a representar. En el quinto capítulo encontramos la catalogación de las pinturas, agrupándolas en primer lugar por autores, luego en ciclos pictóricos o temas en común y por último la secuencia o cronología que puedan tener principalmente los ciclos, es a partir de este orden que se lleva a cabo la lectura iconográfica de cada pieza, diagramando las láminas en las cuales se presenta cada obra en tres partes, pre-iconografía, que consiste en la descripción general de la obra, Iconografía, donde se ubican, identifican y describen los personajes que integran la pintura, quienes son y sus principales atributos y por último la Iconología, que es donde se realiza una interpretación de la obra de acuerdo a la historia, el contexto histórico y la simbología encontrada dentro de la obra. Por ultimo a partir de toda la información incluida en las lecturas, se crea un resumen de la simbología encontrada en las piezas en un formato de glosario iconográfico, y que podrá ser útil para futuras lecturas.

Ecuador es un país diverso, y a la vez marcado por profundas desigual- dades. Formular e implementar políticas para la protección de la diversi- dad del cine no es tarea fácil, pero resulta fundamental si pensamos en la importante aportación del cine al estímulo de la sensibilidad, al fomento del universo simbólico, al desarrollo económico y la transformación social. Un panorama sobre cuál ha sido el escenario de la diversidad en el campo cinematográ co en los últimos años, y cuáles son las políticas y medidas que existen para la protección y promoción del cine en Ecuador, desde la aprobación de la Ley de Fomento del Cine Nacional (2006), has- ta su derogatoria por la aprobación de la Ley Orgánica de Cultura (2016), lo podemos encontrar en la siguiente entrevista a Christian León.

This study aims to determine the management of the University of North Sumatra Consolatio Choir, regarding planning, implementation, and monitoring of evaluations that have been carried out. This study uses a qualitative descriptive analysis approach. Data collection is obtained through: interviews, observation and documentation studies. The research informants were the Chair of the Daily Management Board, Conductor, and Members of the USU Consolation Choir. Data analysis was performed using qualitative data analysis and with technical inductive analysis. Qualitative research is basically building theory, so in this study there is a new theory that is built namely "Service Management". Service here means that organizational management does not expect profits, but the organization still exists. USU's Consolatio Choir, an informal organization, from the outset of planning, the organization has presented the organization's vision and mission to prospective members from USU students and alumni, which in its implementation, the organization's mission went well and everything that was done selflessly and feared God . After the evaluation monitoring, there were still a few weaknesses in non-technical management by BPH. Conclusion of research, choirs can be formed from USU students, or can even be formed from any group who wants to sing in a choir.

This article introduces multi-experiential archaeology, a critical concept incorporating aspects of agency, multi-vocal and landscape theories. Multi-experiential archaeologies explore a wider range of human experience than has been typical in traditional site-based and archaeo-centric approaches, but it can be argued that such an inclusive approach serves to undermine or destabilise the archaeological discipline. Case-studies drawn from indigenous-colonial interaction illustrate the potential of multi-experiential archaeology to present new, critically informed and ethically situated interpretations of the past.
