Different platforms of collaborative work oriented to the audiovisual have proliferated in the last ten years, offering solutions for diverse problems of the creation; from the help to the search of financing, networking, talent search, script reading, among others, they are announced like options only for professionals. The platforms try to break through as a globalized collaborative creation alternative, in a more horizontal side, within the already very vertical and even dictatorial film industry. In addition, a distinction is made between the concepts of collaborative, collective and participatory creation, in order to arrive at a definition of what are the types of platforms on which the article focuses. Thanks to interviews with representatives of the Nerdeo, Filmarket Hub and Frameio platforms, we will learn about project data made by managing the platforms and how they interact with the agents present in the audiovisual creation chain.

Introduction: the article deals with the methodological problem of the meaning of the goal of civil law research. The author analyzes the dissertation abstracts from the point of view of goal setting, which were completed in different periods of the development of Russian civil law science, identifies the qualitative characteristics of the stages, and proves the connection of the achieved results with the researcher’s knowledge of the methodological methods of goal setting. Purpose: to show the value of goal setting in scientific research in general and in civil research in particular; to consider the relationship of goal setting with the achievement of specific scientific results on the examples of dissertations defended in the specialty 12.00.03; to justify the need to set as goals the fundamental problems associated with the identification of patterns of development of relations that are part of the subject of civil law regulation and the creation of effective mechanisms that mediate them. Methods: system-structural, system-functional, generalization, abstraction, analogy, logical, statistical, classification, legal modeling, comparative legal, forecasting, formal legal, historical. Results: civil methodology should take into account the importance of the goal in the organization of scientific work. Only a competent possession of goal setting skills can ultimately ensure the creation of scientifically-based mechanisms for effective impact of civil law norms on regulated social relations. Conclusions: 1) any science, including the science of civil law, is not only designed to study and describe existing problems, including legislative, doctrinal, and law enforcement. Research, in order to meet the criterion of scientific character, must attempt to identify the laws of development, both regulated relations and mechanisms that mediate them; 2) the significance of the goal in the development of science has been proven by outstanding philosophers. In addition, the very definition of science indicates that goal setting is one of its essential characteristics; 3) the analysis of the author’s abstracts of leading Russian tsivilists showed how the skilful setting of research goals helped to achieve them consistently, as well as to create a high-quality categorical apparatus of civil law science; 4) the analysis of modern dissertations showed that not all young researchers see the value of goal-setting and this methodological disadvantage is important for the author to eliminate.

The Imf

The inframammary fold (IMF) is one of the most important landmarks that defines the breast region. Most of the current IMF reconstructive techniques are based on the creation of fibrotic structures to maintain the breast. We present a surgical technique of IMF reconstruction by the creation of a fascial flap underpinned by an anatomical evaluation of this structure and a simple algorithm to define the localization of the new IMF. Fifteen patients underwent our procedure of IMF reconstruction from 2004 to 2016. The patients were followed during at least 6 months after IMF reconstruction. This technique is based on the creation of a pectoralis major fascial flap fixed to the dermis by inverted resorbable sutures. The fascial flap represents a new ligament of the IMF reconstituting a physiological support. Cosmetic outcomes and stability over time were assessed. The long-term aesthetic outcome is optimal on all the patients treated with a natural shape and a good definition of the new IMF. There were no noted complications or revision surgery during the follow-up. Our technique consists of an anatomical reconstitution of IMF recreating a natural support “balcony-like” formed by the pectoralis fascia fixed to the dermis. This technique is useful to correct reconstructive or aesthetic procedures of the breast, with great cosmetic outcome and high reliability underpinned by the use of our position algorithm which is easy to use and enables a symmetrical position of the IMF.

Time And Energy

Tiziana Terranova draws attention to the necessity of questioning how algorithmically enabled automation works “in terms of control and monetization” and “what kind of time and energy” is being subsumed by it (Terranova 387). Cryptocurrencies are payment technologies that automate the production of money-like tokens (Bergstra and Weijland) following algorithmic rules to maintain a fixed production rate. Different kinds of energy and residues, which are not always acknowledged, are involved in this process. Here I distinguish between two closely linked layers in the Bitcoin token production: first, an algorithmic layer, which contains the instructions and rules for the creation of bitcoins; second, a hardware layer, which performs and embodies the former. While these layers work together, I will argue that they enact their own kind of logics of energy and waste. I will begin at the more visible end of the production cycle, the hardware layer, where the definition of waste and energy consumption is shared with many electronic devices; then I will trace back its algorithmic layer, which as I argue, follows a different logic.

The paper offers a definition of cosmology and its connections with mythology, and presents contemporary theories as a secular mythical narrative suitable for anthropological analysis. The paper is dedicated to emphasizing the folklore characteristics of modern cosmology and points to the importance of popular cosmological narratives as reading that contains culturally, philosophically and even religiously relevant elements. Special attention is paid to cosmogonic myths that describe the state of the universe before the creation of space and time. A parallel has been drawn between modern cosmology and conventional cosmogonic myths. In the end, the paper offers a concise definition of popular cosmology and recalls the most important authors and popularizers of modern theories. The main task of the paper is to present the basic concepts that can contribute to a complete understanding of the anthropological character of the presentation of contemporary cosmology that we encounter in popular narratives. The aim of such an analysis is to observe the depth of the significance of modern science for creating a philosophical picture of the world that inherits secular worldviews. By treating popular cosmology as a modern myth, the paper presents a new dimension of the significance of scientific theories for today's civilization. Such an approach unravels the strictly positivist halo of cosmology and points to its anthropological character. The concepts highlighted in the paper serve as an illustration of the significance that the image of the universe and the position of the Earth has for the history of civilization. By presenting the cultural dimension of cosmology, it opens a space for dialogue between different branches of scientific research, i.e. it contributes to the communication of philosophy and science. Equally important, by illuminating the folklore character of the narrative of the origin and history of the universe, a training ground is created for philosophers and theologians who, in their own ways, interpret the creation of everything around us. By drawing attention to authors such as Neil deGrasse Tyson, Lawrence Kraus, Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku and others, as contemporary bards and narrators, the paper seeks to contribute to the understanding of popular cosmology as an expression of modern man's need for great stories, for narratives that transcend the spatial and temporal frames of one generation, and that is exactly what myths do.

Boris Godunov

The article dwells upon the process of the artistic cooperation between Vsevolod Meyerhold and Sergei Prokofi ev by the example of their collaborative work on Alexander Pushkin’s play “Boris Godunov.” The preparation for the actualization of the conception had started long before the main rehearsing period — in 1934, after the issuance of the edict of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the VKP(b) (Communist Party) “Concerning the Foundation of the All-Union Pushkin Committee in connection with the centennial anniversary of the death of Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin.” The performance was supposed to have become the appropriate response to the festivities of the Pushkin jubilee, but it never got round to being performed at that time. The peculiarities of the interpretation of the drama in the dialogue of the two Masters are examined on the basis of the materials connected with the history of the creation of the performance and the music to it. Analysis is made of the semantic content of the musical numbers (“The Song of the Lonely Wanderer” and the “Songs of Loneliness”), which carry out the function of the through leit-motifs and indirectly characterize Boris Godunov and the Pretender, and also play an important role in the formation of the “general intonation” of the performance. The conclusion is arrived at that the “politically saturated” production of Vsevolod Meyerhold and Sergei Prokofi ev touched upon the prohibited “territory of meanings”: the denoted implication unwittingly projected itself on the personal fate of the ruler of the Soviet state.

Abstract Odontocete depredation on longlines involves socioeconomic and conservation issues with significant losses for fisheries and potential impacts on wild populations of depredating species. As technical solutions to this conflict are limited and difficult to implement, this study aimed to identify fishing practices that could reduce odontocete depredation, with a focus on killer whales (Orcinus orca) interacting with Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) longliners off the Crozet islands. Data collected by fishery observers from 6013 longline sets between 2003 and 2013 allowed us to statistically detect the significant influence of five operational variables using GLMMs. The probability of interactions between vessels and killer whales was decreased by (i) the number of vessels operating simultaneously in the area: the limited number of depredating killer whales may induce a dilution effect with increased fleet size, and (ii) depth of longline sets: vessels operating in shallow waters may be more accessible to whales that are initially distributed on peri-insular shelves. The cpue was negatively influenced by (iii) length of longlines: longer sets may provide killer whales access to a greater proportion of hooked fish per set, and positively influenced by (iv) hauling speed: increased speed may shorten the time during which toothfish are accessible to whales during hauling. The time it takes for killer whales to reach vessels was positively correlated to (v) the distance travelled between longline sets with an estimated threshold of 100 km beyond which whales seem to temporarily lose track of vessels. These findings provide insightful guidelines about what fishing strategy to adopt given these variables to reduce killer whale depredation here and in similar situations elsewhere. To a greater extent, this study is illustrative of how collaborative work with fishermen in a fully controlled fishery framework may lead to the definition of cost-limited and easy-to-implement mitigation solutions when facing such human-wildlife conflict.

On the creation and dissolution of ethnomedical systems in the medical ethnography of Africa

Medical Ethnography

AbstractBetween the mid-1970s and mid-1980s a number of publications appeared in which earlier ethnographies of illness and misfortune in Africa were criticised for placing too much emphasis on supernatural causation and neglecting natural causation and practical medical behaviour. Indeed, following Warren's (1974) first criticism of Field, there was what almost amounted to a crusade to prove that Africans traditionally recognised a separate medical domain in which they interpret illness primarily in empirical and practical rather than in social and moral terms.This article criticises the attempt to cast African aetiologies in a new light. Proceeding from a discussion of the distinction between naturalistic and personalistic aetiologies, around which the whole issue revolves, it examines the critics' claim that ethnographers have placed too much emphasis on supernatural causation in African aetiologies, that once these aetiologies are viewed more broadly they can in fact be seen to be largely naturalistic, and that one of the reasons for this bias is that earlier ethnographies, in particular Evans-Pritchard's Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic, have been wrongly interpreted. A discussion of Evans-Pritchard's own description of Zande aetiology leads to the conclusion that the recent reinterpretations of Zande aetiology are mistaken. This raises the question: why the sudden desire to delineate discrete medical systems, and why so much emphasis on natural causation and practical activity?Following a discussion of Wimbum aetiology and the concept of medicine, based on fieldwork in the Grassfields of Cameroon, the author argues that the emphasis on naturalistic causation and practical activity in the definition of African medical systems does not make them broader, as the protagonists claim, but narrower, and that the ‘broader’ descriptions of medical systems are not more accurate representations of how Africans interpret and cope with illness but biomedically determined constructs imposed on African culture through medical ethnography. The article concludes with a plea for the dissolution of the concept of ‘ethnomedical systems’.

This article questions the definition of a fascist organization settled abroad: the Casa d'Italia - House of Italy -, analyzing its institutional and constitutional development. The author reviews the political affair which brought to the creation in the '20s of the fasci all'estero - Fascist abroad - and to the elaboration of the "Case d'Italia" in the '30s. She focuses on the creation of the "Direzione degli italiani all'estero" - Directions of Italians abroad - at Foreign ministry, that institutionalized and gave definition and centralization to the "Case d'Italia". In France (country of the analysis), more than fifty "Case d'Italia" were built from 1928 to 1938. But most of them were not achieved in terms of organisation, services and structures. The most complete ones are located along the Italian border and in the areas of Italian high emigration. The Casa d'Italia was not only a place where Italian expatriates could looking for assistance, but it also became the symbol of Fascist Italy abroad and reached a new dimension that transformed it into a "temple" of fascist ideology through decorations, architectures, symbols and festivities.
