Raven Chacon’s 2022 Pulitzer Prize winning composition Voiceless Mass is only one of many works he has created to engage with cultural and political conceptions of silence. Far from denoting a lack of sound, silence in Chacon’s work often is full of noise that requires different forms of listening. In what follows I argue that Chacon’s use of silence is a direct challenge to the visual and sonic legacy of European landscape art and to a terra nullian ontology that perceives land as empty. In doing so Chacon’s work aligns with a resurgence of Indigenous resistance to settler colonialism and its extractive logics that reached a climax with the resistance to pipeline construction at Standing Rock. By listening to Chacon’s works that engage in silence we can hear a theory of relationship to the land that insists on its sacred fullness of life.

A partir del concepto de literaturidad, propuesto por Jonathan Culler, y del análisis de la obra Cartas al pie de un árbol de Ángel Norzagaray, se propone una manera de medir el valor literario-dramático de una obra teatral. Este término se llama dramaturgialidad, pero debe sortear algunos obstáculos como la subjetividad de la cualificación de la literatura, como sucede con la literaturidad de Culler. Esta dramaturgialidad contempla seis rasgos: Lenguaje integrado, poesía de lo cotidiano, facultad de dialogación, ficción, estética y capacidad de progresión dramática.  Se propone una primera etapa de experimentación, en la que la dramaturgialidad sea aplicada a diversos textos para afinar su precisión y demostrar su funcionalidad, y se concluye que la funcionalidad de la dramaturgialidad está relacionada con la elección de la literatura dramática para llevarla a la puesta en escena.

É possível encontrar diversas reflexões sobre a cena contemporânea que se valem do pensamento de Jacques Rancière para problematizar o lugar da recepção. Rancière escreveu o ensaio O espectador emancipado a partir das reflexões colocadas em seu livro O mestre ignorante. Para o filósofo, isso representou uma oportunidade para discutir pressupostos teóricos e políticos que ainda sustentam o debate sobre o teatro e a performance. Ao reler os livros de Rancière e analisar também sua proposta da política como dissenso, pergunta-se se discutimos, suficientemente, o caráter emancipatório na atividade de recepção.

Velatón por Cristo es una performance realizada en 2019, en el marco de la violencia hacia las comunidades LGBTIQ+, específicamente el lesbofemicidio de Nicole Saavedra y el ataque a Matías Mella. Un aspecto central de la propuesta se basa en una subversión de género, en la que María es representada por una persona travestida y Jesús por una persona LGBTIQ+. En este artículo realizaremos el estudio de un caso, en el que esperamos generar una discusión teórica respecto a cómo se manifiesta la presencia de las que no están. Denominaremos a estas presencias faltantes “no resencias” o “no yo”, analizando cómo desde la representación teatral de la muerte violenta se busca mantener viva la memoria de la mujer asesinada.

The Ominde Education Reports (1964) commissioned in the first decade of independence in Kenya provide important policy direction on educational developments at the secondary school level yet scholarly historical accounts on this phenomenon are scanty. This paper explores the implementation of the secondary school curriculum proposed by the Ominde Education Commission (1964) at Friends School Kamusinga in Kenya's first decade of independence. The study adopted a historical research design. The study used Trevor Gale’s (2001) Theoretical Framework of Critical Policy Archaeology and historical thinking conceptual framework by Seixas (2006) to examine concepts of historical significance, change and continuity in the reform process. Data collection involved a critical review of relevant literature; including several curriculum reforms documents and oral interviews. Snowball sampling was adopted to select 12 participants. Data analysis and interpretation were done through internal and external historical criticism. Based on the literature review and documentary analysis, there was overwhelming evidence for Kenya to review education at independence since Kenyan education has its roots in the colonial past. The Government formed several Commissions to carry out major reforms in education in response to the changing needs of the Kenyan society. The findings showed that FSK, both “O” level and A level subjects were offered. For the “O” level, the subjects included Languages (English and Kiswahili), Mathematics, Humanities and Sciences. At “A” level, both Arts and Science subjects and General Paper were offered. In the formative years of FSK, there was heavy reliance on foreign teachers from FAM Missions, TEA, BEA, Peace Corps in the implementation of the curriculum. Teacher effort was complemented by curriculum materials originated from the KIE and requisite systematic MOE administrative activities through its inspectorate division. At FSK students performed well in end of cycle national examinations. The implementation of curriculum at FSK influenced curriculum roll out in upcoming neighbouring schools. Overall, findings showed that the enactment of the secondary school curriculum policy in the FSK reflect the aspirations of the Ominde Report. The study concludes that education system proposed by OEC was implemented at FSK and other schools in Kenya. The implementation was a continuation of the colonial British curriculum fashioned towards European culture and values. The development and implementation of the curriculum was a top-down policy which excluded teachers and parents. the study recommends that there is need to improve our curriculum policy (but caution should be taken especially with imported education policies International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences Vol. 1 1 , No. 9, 2021, E-ISSN: 2222-6990 © 2021 HRMARS 1320 and ideologies/values. This study recommends that the government should thoroughly invest in researching on curriculum policies to determine their suitability rather than adopting foreign ones which could be irrelevant to the society needs.

This paper is a invitation to interaction designers across disciplines to rethink the shaping of interaction “intra-actively”. Whether in human-computer interaction design or interdisciplinary and interactive performance practices, we propose to shift the emphasis from interaction between things, towards the intra-active processes of differentiation by which such things are continually made and unmade. Expanding interaction design by engaging in processes intended to bring awareness to the value systems involved in the local production of “interaction” and “things that interact” offers an opportunity to treat these values, and likewise the designers (be it engineers or choreographers or composers), as objects themselves in the design process. In the traditions of feminist, new materialist, and process philosophy we weave a narrative of appropriated perspectives in order to dismantle hegemonic accounts of correlationism and representationalism in interaction design, while investigating the concepts of boundary objects, diffraction, and critical appropriation as potential approaches to intra-active design.

En Amadeus (1979) de Peter Shaffer se aborda el supuesto conflicto entre los compositores Mozart y Salieri. La pieza teatral fue reescrita en numerosas ocasiones (incluyendo un guión para cine); las reversiones escriturales de la obra muestran la construcción persistente de un imaginario en torno a la escritura, la cual es percibida como peligro y regula la conflictiva relación entre los personajes. Desde el marco teórico y metodológico de la crítica genética, abordamos la escritura en Amadeus en el texto dramático y cinematográfico firmado por Shaffer.

With help of virtualization technology, cloud data centers provide affordable computation power to numerous enterprises and business users. Virtual machine dynamic consolidation is considered as an approach that can effectively save energy consumption of cloud data centers and improve its run time efficiency. However, most existing approaches perform virtual machine dynamic consolidation without considering communication traffic between VMs. Such kind of approaches may lead to unsatisfactory consolidation result because inappropriate consolidation may exacerbate inter-rack traffic, making upper level switches performance bottlenecks for the entire system. In this paper, we propose a fast communication-aware consolidation approach based on a distributed architecture. We modify SCAN algorithm to discover VM communication topology. The most attractive benefit of SCAN is its low computation cost. According to such communication topology information, we propose a dynamic consolidation heuristic that can mitigate inter-rack traffic. Through extensive simulations, we show effectiveness of our approach and its advantage over state of arts in terms of energy saving, average traffic through core switches and task response time.

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a linear programming based data analytic method for measuring the relative efficiency of organisational units where the presence of multiple inputs and outputs makes comparisons difficult. Academic departments have critical importance for a university so we agree to research and compare about academic faculties in a leading university in Turkey. The aim of the study is to measure the relative efficiency of the academic faculties and determine the efficient/inefficient ones in the studied university. 12 faculties of the university are investigated within the scope of this study. The input variables are considered as total number of academic staff, total number of non-academic staff, number of students and the output variables are as number of publications, number of projects and the percentage of budget used. While results of CCR model show an average of 90.5% relative efficiency value, five faculties are found 100% efficient according to the CCR model. According to BCC model, the results have an average of 93.7% and 6 faculties are 100% efficient. In terms of the potential improvements evaluated for each inefficient faculty, it is seen that faculty of mechanical engineering and faculty of civil engineering are the ones requiring the most improvement. This paper contributes to the literature a lot however it is a new and proper study on efficiency analysis of faculties of a Turkish university. On conclusion of the DEA efficiency scores, the existence of misallocation of resources or/and inefficient applications to the faculties’ academic development are uncovered. Keywords: data envelopment analysis, efficiency, academic faculties 1. Introduction With increasing number of students enrolling in Turkish universities, leading universities has faced with the problem of providing higher education in a more effective manner that enables existing resources to be used to meet increasing demand M. Gül – M. Yücesan – O Duman 9/3 (2017) 60-71 İşletme Araştırmaları Dergisi Journal of Business Research-­‐Türk 61 for education. As the most advanced city of Turkey, Istanbul has the most leading public universities. Increasing competition and university management’ desire to reach a better place in overall ranking by utilizing scarce resources indicate that efficiency evaluation may become more common among these universities. Each university has a certain number of faculties. The evaluation of the efficiency of these academic faculties is part of the process of resource allocation within a university (Lopes and Lanzer, 2002). Academic faculties compete and cooperate with others within a university to demonstrate their capabilities to the stakeholders inside and outside the university. This prompts university management to use a permanent process of cross-evaluation of departments within the university. DEA as a data oriented approach is frequently applied by researchers for evaluating the efficiency of a set of decisions making units (DMUs) which convert multiple inputs into multiple outputs. Especially in the recent literature, several studies are carried out in academic environments to measure performance and efficiency using DEA method. Each study is distinguished from its scope, DMUs, and input/output variables. A brief explanation of these related studies is provided in the following. It is noted that these studies can deal with efficiencies of universities, academic sub units within universities and their environments. The focus of this study is related with the faculties as sub units of the universities. Avkiran (2001) focuses on the evaluation of the relative efficiency of Australian universities using DEA. They propose three performance models as overall performance, performance on delivery of educational services, and performance on feepaying enrolments. They conclude based on 1995 data that the universities perform well on technical and scale efficiency but there is room for improving performance on feepaying enrolments. Lopes and Lanzer (2002) deal with the issue of performance evaluation of fifty-eight academic departments at a Brazilian university using DEA. The results of DEA in the dimensions of teaching, research, service and quality are modelled under fuzzy environment and then a single index of performance for each department is generated. Tauer et al. (2007) study for technical and allocative efficiencies of academic departments in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell University using DEA. They use various specifications of outputs and inputs to determine sensitivity of results to specification. It is concluded that allocations of faculty time between teaching, research, and extension vary by department and are used as unique prices in calculating allocative efficiencies. Kao and Hung (2008) apply DEA to assess the relative efficiency of the academic departments at a university in Taiwan. They consider outputs as total credit-hours, publications, and external grants; and the inputs as personnel, operating expenses, and floor space. Tzeremes and Halkos (2010) apply bootstrapped DEA in order to determine the performance levels of 16 departments of a public owned university in Greece. They conclude that there are strong inefficiencies among the departments, indicating misallocation of resources or/and inefficient application of departments policy developments. Agha et al. (2011) study the evaluation of the relative technical efficiencies of academic departments at the Islamic University in Gaza during the years 2004-2006 using DEA. They use operating expenses, credit hours and training resources as inputs and number of graduates, promotions and public service activities as outputs variables. Results of their study show that the average efficiency score is 68.5% and that there are 10 efficient departments out of the 30 studied. Al-Shayea and Battal (2013) investigate the efficiency of eighteen faculties in a university in Saudi Arabia for M. Gül – M. Yücesan – O Duman 9/3 (2017) 60-71 İşletme Araştırmaları Dergisi Journal of Business Research-­‐Türk 62 the academic year 2011-2012 using DEA. They use the number of students enrolled, the number of teachers and staff as inputs, and the total number of students with a bachelor's degree and a number of research as outputs. The results show that 55.5% are efficient with average of 0.88 in terms of variable return to scale efficiency. The university obtains average scale efficiency 0.68 and only three faculties reach at the frontier. The aim of the paper is to estimate and analyse the efficiency of faculties of a leading university for the year 2014 using DEA. Although there are numerous studies focused on the efficiency of universities, university departments and so on in different countries around the world using various parametric and non-parametric methods (Kokkelenberg et al. 2008; Al-Shayea and Battal, 2013; Izadi et al. 2002; Glass et al. 2006; McMillan and Chan, 2006; Worthington and Lee, 2008; Abbott and Doucouliagos, 2003; Tzeremes and Halkos, 2010; Johnes and Johnes, 1993; Tauer et al. 2007; Kao and Hung, 2008; Colbert et al. 2000; Agha et al. 2011), it is limited in Turkey. Therefore, we aim at contributing the current literature by this way considering efficiency analysis of faculties of a Turkish university. 2. Material and Method In this section, we present the data used in evaluating the efficiency of faculties of the observed university and DEA methodology, respectively. 2.1. Data The observed university has 12 faculties. Considering all selection criteria, the research sample includes 12 DMUs spanning all of the faculties as shown in Table 1. Table 1 Decision making units # Faculties (DMUs) 1 Faculty of Education 2 Faculty of Electrical & Electronics 3 Faculty of Arts & Science 4 Faculty of Naval Architecture and Maritime 5 Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences 6 Faculty of Civil Engineering 7 Faculty of Chemical and Metallurgical Engineering 8 Faculty of Mechanical Engineering 9 Faculty of Architecture 10 Faculty of Art & Design 11 Technical Vocational School of Higher Education 12 School of Foreign Languages To ensure meaningful efficiency scores, the number of DMUs must be large enough relative to the number of input and output variables. We have 3 inputs and 3 outputs variables as in Table 2. We obtain input data from Academic Activity Report of the observed university for the year 2014. On the other hand, output data is provided by three various source. We provide data of number of publications from encourage publication list for the semester 2013-2014. While the data of number of projects is M. Gül – M. Yücesan – O Duman 9/3 (2017) 60-71 İşletme Araştırmaları Dergisi Journal of Business Research-­‐Türk 63 obtained from the university project support office, the percentage of budget used data is received from Directorate of Strategy Development of the university. After input and output variables were finalized, a data sheet is designed in such a way that the values of these variables are filled in by different departments and units. University website, publications, and brochures are used in data collection. The collected data within the scope of this study are shown in Table 3. All variables are belonged to the year 2014 except from the variable number of publication. NP variable is included by 2013-2014 academic year data (1.10.2013-30.09.2014) because the data after September 2014 has not published yet. It will be published after 2014-2015 academic year. Another reason that we used 2013-2014 academic year’s data is that most of data belongs to the year 2014.

Dalam menghadapi Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN (MEA) era pasar bebas se-Asia Tenggara, dunia usaha harus mengambil langkah strategis agar dapat menghadapi persaingan dengan negara ASEAN lain, tak terkecuali dunia usaha sektor industri kreatif.  Empat belas pokok sektor industri kreatif yang telah dipetakan Departemen Perdagangan Republik Indonesia mempunyai kontribusi  terhadap PDB memang masih relatif rendah, akan tetapimempunyai potensi untuk industri kreatif di Jawa Timur sangat besar. Salah satu subsektor “senipertunjukan”cukup memprihatinkan hanya mampu memberikan kontribusi terhadap industri kreatif secara menyeluruh  sebesar 0,10%. Trio ABG atau sering disebut Triple Helix yang merupakan sinergitas antara Akademisi, Business, Goverment adalah salah satu konsep dalam upaya meningkatkan pertumbuhan industri kreatif. Di samping itu kemapanan industri kreatif  juga ditentukan keunggulan bersaing industri  kreatif tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji kontribusi Trio ABG dan Keunggulan Bersaing terhadap pertumbuhan industri kreatif seni pertunjukan di Jawa Timur.Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh pemilik/ pengelola industri kreatif dari 14 sektor dengan sampel sebanyak 42 industri kreatif seni pertunjukan.Berdasarkan analisis data deskriptip ditemukan bahwa pemetaan TRIO ABG dalam industri kreatif seni pertunjukan sangat lemah.Demikian juga pemetaan keunggulan bersaing dalam industri kreatif seni pertunjukan belum dapat dikatakan unggul untuk dapat bersaing. ABSTRACT In the face of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) era of free markets in Southeast Asia, the business community must take strategic steps in order to face competition from other ASEAN countries, not least the business sector of the creative industries. Fourteen principal creative industries sector which has mapped the Ministry of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia has contributed to GDP is still relatively low, but have the potential for creative industries in East Java is huge. One subsector "performing arts" quite alarming only able to contribute to the creative industries as a whole amounted to 0.10%. Trio ABG often called Triple Helix which is a synergy between Academia, Business, Government is one of the concepts in an effort to boost the growth of the creative industries. In addition, the establishment of creative industries also determined the competitive advantage of the creative industries. This study aims to assess the contribution Trio ABG and Competitive Advantage on the growth of the creative industries in East Java performing arts. The population in this study are all owner / manager of 14 creative industry sectors with a sample of 42 creative arts industry. Based on descriptive data analysis found that the mapping TRIO ABG in the creative industries art show is very weak. Similarly, mapping of the creative industries a competitive advantage in the performing arts can not be said to be superior to compete.

She has worked as a designer and illustrator, publishing several comic books and graphic novels with McSweeneys, Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Image Comics, Last Gasp, and Dark Horse. She has always been fascinated by the fluidity and flexibility of gender expression and presentation, along with how outsider communities are simultaneously celebrated and denigrated for moving outside of social norms. As an artist, she has worked to find ways to weave elements of this dichotomy into her work. Having spent the last decade examining sexual culture and commodification, she is now looking to see how these very human patterns are playing out in other alternative communities. Her works have looked at the interactions of the sex industry with other economic forces at play within the Las Vegas entertainment complex, an autoethnographic work that explored the boundaries between herself as observer and as subject, as well as exploring the idea of “performative emotionality” and the cultural production of sexuality.
