from UC Berkeley Department of Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies
(2014/5/1 2:41)
|
TDPS is proud to announce that three faculty members have won Humanities Research Fellowships to support their research during their sabbatical year. Awarded by The Division of Arts and Humanities in the College of Letters and Sciences, the fellowship is granted to UC Berkeley professors engaged in humanistic disciplines or who work in the creative arts.
During his sabbatical year, Professor Joe Goode will document his creative process in Crossbred: an insight into how dance/theater is made . A choreographer who specializes in creating cross-disciplinary performances, Goode hopes his series of essays will preserve his dance/theater making process for future generations of dance educators and artists. Writes Goode, ?These essays will largely be written to reveal the thinking of the director (myself), but I am also interested in including contributions from my company of performers (many of whom have worked with me for almost a decade), as their contribution to the development of a ...

Intrinsic Motion Project constructs a world in which you as the audience will play an active role in the creation of moving vignettes. Our intention is to explore motion caused by specific forces. While developing this work, we asked ourselves these questions: What is the essential importance of the initial impulse that propels the motion, and what is the result of that impulse? Will the sequence of movements converge or diverge to create a fluid composition? A CHIME Mentorship with Elizabeth Streb in 2012 inspired and informed the creation of this project.
This program was funded by the Zellerbach Family Foundation and the W&F Hewlett Foundation .

Hocheffiziente Wasseraufbereitung mit Licht
from Fraunhofer Presseinformationen
(2014/4/30 23:00)

Manche hartnäckigen Schadstoffe im Abwasser können auch von Kläranlagen nicht abgebaut werden. Fraunhofer-Forscher haben ein Reaktorsystem entwickelt, in dem sich Wasser mit Hilfe von UV-Licht zuverlässig und mit hohem Durchsatz aufbereiten lässt?ohne dass chemische Katalysatoren zugesetzt werden müssen. Einen ersten industriellen Prototyp präsentieren sie auf der diesjährigen IFAT vom 5. bis 9. Mai in München (Halle A5, Stand 219/318).
