The purpose of this research study was to identify how mega-events that had been established in the official calendar of SPTuris (São Paulo Tourism Company) in 2020, of the Municipality of São Paulo, Brazil, have adapted to the coronavirus pandemic. The study verified the impacts and obstacles caused in the event industry as well as the mitigation of such difficulties. A presentation was made on concepts, classifications of events, their history, and position in the market, including a description of actions by organizers not to stop all activities; the authors also included an interview with a representative of two companies in the event industry. The study conclusion was that most events opted for the internet and social media, in addition to drive-thru and delivery activities in the case of gastronomy; and that there have been gains in health safety and in the role of hybrid events in the future.

The article describes how the Brazilian media shows the Internet of Things. The corpus is composed of 165 texts of Folha de São Paulo published online between 2011 and 2016. A data scraping tool was developed to extract the texts, which were analyzed using Atlas.ti. As criterion of analysis, we sought to identify the most cited objects, the qualities attributed to them, as well as the most recurrent IoT definitions. We also observed the main themes found in the texts and the judgment implied by the articles. We conclude that IoT is defined by the connectivity between intelligent objects, linked to technical and economic issues and to the imaginary of the future. These objects work mostly in the residential, health and transportation areas. Privacy issues still do not dominate the discussions.

Resumo:Esse trabalho discute a importância da produção visual, sobretudo, a fotografia, na constituição da imagem da cidade. Aborda, também, o papel da tecnologia digital na composição das subjetividades contemporâneas e suas contribuições para se fortalecer uma cultura urbana, mesmo em meio às limitações impostas pela sociedade. Para sua realização observou-se etnograficamente um grupo de skatistas, em uma pista de skate, numa cidade do interior de São Paulo. A importância dada ao celular foi um traço recorrente que permeou grande parte das discussões. Portar um aparelho híbrido e produzir imagens é uma maneira de contribuir para a construção do imaginário sobre a cidade, sobretudo, quando essas imagens veiculam pela internet. Acredita-se que o trabalho traz problematizações sobre os jovens na relação consigo, com o outro, com o grupo e com a cidade.Palavras-chave: Subjetividade. Cidade. Jovem. Skatista.

RESUMO Trata da contraposição entre as informações imagéticas veiculadas pelo Jornal Nacional (JN) da Rede Globo, de 6 a 18 de junho, e o contraponto feito por parte daquelas que circularam em mídias sociais e serviços de redes sociais no mesmo período, marcado por protestos iniciais das Jornadas de Junho em São Paulo. Parte da análise semiótica do conjunto de imagens veiculadas pelo JN, contrapostas a registros videográficos de indivíduos e grupos independentes. Conclui que a diversidade de fontes e pontos de vista desses registros evidencia uma possibilidade de maior riqueza informativa, o que traz à tona a parcialidade da informação imagética do JN.Palavras-chave: Jornadas de Junho, informação imagética, Jornal Nacional, São Paulo, vídeos na Internet.ABSTRACTThe article discusses the counterpoints between imagetic information conveyed by the Jornal Nacional (main news program in Brazil) – JN, on the Globo TV Network, from June 6th to 18th, and a portion of that circulated in social media and social networking services (SNS) in the same period, which was marked by initial protests of the June Protests (Jornadas de Junho) in São Paulo. Part of the semiotic analysis of the set of images broadcast by JN is contrasted with the videographic records of individuals and independent groups. It is concluded that the diversity of sources and points of view of these records represents a possibility of greater informational richness, showing how biased the JN imagetic information can be.Keywords: Jornadas de Junho (June Demonstrations), imagetic information, Jornal Nacional, São Paulo, videos on the Internet.

Long term strategic plans are enjoying a renaissance in cities across the world. The strategic plans of London, Paris, Auckland, Johannesburg, Sao Paulo, Singapore, New York, and Barcelona are all examples of different ways that cities try to plot their own future. But what are the key ingredients of a strategic plan and how are they developed?

Networked social movements have amplified the emancipation of protesters everywhere. In Brazil, a conflict arose after the São Paulo State Secretariat for Education announced the closing of 94 public schools, impacting 311,000 people. In response, about 30 students organized the occupation of the State School Fernão Dias Paes. Subsequently, the occupation spread to other schools. Based on a case study of the first school occupied in the city of São Paulo, this research aims to identify the role of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and social media tools in generating and sustaining the successful occupation protest of public schools in São Paulo. This chapter covers theories on demonstrations initiated online, on the social panorama in Latin America and educational issues in Brazil. It also addresses and analyzes the occupation process at this school, which reached visibility and support at national and international levels using ICTs and social media, confirming the steps of occupy movements around the world.

Resumo: O artigo que ora se apresenta é, na realidade, um pequeno ensaio que tem por finalidade indagar a importância da educação no pensamento de Søren Kierkegaard e investigar se, no âmbito da existência como possibilidade, uma educação voltada para a subjetividade se mostra efetiva diante dos debates acerca da liberdade e da singularidade do indivíduo. Pouco se debate sobre o conceito de educação em Kierkegaard, porém, acreditamos que se trata de um ponto basilar no pensamento do filósofo dinamarquês, conforme buscamos demonstrar, e deve ser objeto de maiores pesquisas, estudos e reflexões. Tomamos como referência para o início desse debate textos como as Migalhas Filosóficas e o Post-Scriptum, onde a subjetividade e a singularidade aparecem como conceitos fundamentais.Palavras-chave: Educação. Existência. Singularidade. Subjetividade. Kierkegaard. Abstract: The present article is, in fact, a small essay whose purpose is to investigate the importance of education in Søren Kierkegaard's thinking and to investigate whether, in the scope of existence as a possibility, an education focused on subjectivity is effective before the debates about the freedom and the singularity of the individual. There is little debate about the concept of education in Kierkegaard, but we believe that this is a basic point in the thinking of the Danish philosopher, as we seek to demonstrate, and should be the object of further research, study and reflection. We take as reference for the beginning of this debate texts such as the Philosophical Fragments and the Post-Scriptum, where subjectivity and singularity appear as fundamental concepts.Keywords: Education.

Resumo:  Apresenta-se uma discussão sobre o conhecimento e a tese dos três mundos no qual a interação entre estes nos aproxima da verdade do problema corpo-mente, tendo em vista, uma nova proposta de solução. O terceiro mundo é uma peça importante neste trabalho; sendo assim, analisaremos o que Popper designa como Mundo 3, em que ele consiste e o papel da linguagem como diferencial do ser humano. Apresentamos as críticas popperianas às correntes monistas e dualistas, ousando fazer uma crítica a Teoria do Conhecimento tradicional. Desta forma, a proposta apresentada por este filósofo da ciência diferencia-se de tudo que estava sendo feito até então, por isso, o interesse de apresentar essa abordagem pouco trabalhada de Popper. Palavras-chave: Conhecimento. Corpo-Mente. Mundo 3.Abstract: In this work, we present a discussion about knowledge and the theory of the three worlds in which the interaction between them approaches to the truth of the mind-body problem, in view of a proposed solution. The third world is an important piece in this work. Therefore, we will analyze what Popper describes as World 3, what it is and the role of language as a differential of human beings. We present Popper’s criticisms to the monistic and dualistic currents, daring to criticize the theory of traditional knowledge. Thus, the proposal of science presented by this philosopher differs from everything that was being done until then. This explains the interest in presenting this unusual approach to Popper.Keywords: Knowledge. Body-Mind.  World 3. REFERÊNCIASLEAL-TOLEDO, Gustavo . Popper e seu Cérebro.

Abstract New digital technologies such as Blockchain and smart contracting are rapidly changing the face of value exchange, and present new opportunities and challenges for designers. Designers and data specialists are at the forefront of exploring new ways of exchanging value, using Blockchain, cryptocurrencies, smart contracting and the direct exchanges between things made possible by the Internet of Things (Tallyn et al. 2018; Pschetz et al. 2019). For researchers and designers in areas of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and Interaction Design to better understand and explore the implications of these emerging and future technologies as Distributed Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) we delivered a workshop at the ACM conference Designing Interactive Systems (DIS) in Edinburgh in 2017 (Nissen et al. 2017). The workshop aimed to use the lens of DAOs to introduce the principle that products and services may soon be owned and managed collectively and not by one person or authority, thus challenging traditional concepts of ownership and power. This workshop builds on established HCI research exploring the role of technology in financial interactions and designing for the rapidly changing world of technology and value exchange (Kaye et al. 2014; Malmborg et al. 2015; Millen et al. 2015; Vines et al. 2014). Beyond this, the HCI community has started to explore these technologies beyond issues of finance, money and collaborative practice, focusing on the implications of these emerging but rapidly ascending distributed systems in more applied contexts (Elsden et al. 2018a). By bringing together designers and researchers with different experiences and knowledge of distributed systems, the aim of this workshop was two-fold. First, to further understand, develop and critique these new forms of distributed power and ownership and second, to practically explore how to design interactive products and services that enable, challenge or disrupt existing and emerging models.
