This week we are delving into our first case study: Benin Bronzes. Please read the readings attached and respond to the prompts below.
Participate in Discussion forum: Reading Reflection #3 by answering the following prompts in paragraph form:
What are the Benin Bronzes? Where are they? What is the timeline for the Bronzes?
Why are there requests for repatriation of the Benin Bronzes?
What are the ethical and moral considerations for the repatriation of the Benin Bronzes?
What are the arguments against repatriating the Bronzes? What might the repatriation of the Benin Bronzes mean for other items in museums all over the world?
Why is the repatriation of the Benin Bronzes different than repatriating the Parthenon Marbles from the British Museum?

The Assessment Guidance is..
– Compare and contrast two artworks where materiality seems to operate differently. They might be made by the same practitioner but demonstrate a shift in style. They might be intended to perform the same function but be made by different makers, or emanate from different cultures and/or different historical periods. Or they may be assembled from the same basic materials but in very different ways or using different methods of facture. What specific differences have you identified? And what theoretical resources can you bring into play in order to better understand the workings, meanings (including possible ideological meanings), and effects of materiality that may be at issue? Remember to provide evidence to support your arguments.
– Remember carefully to analyse your chosen artwork and then to consider what theoretical resources you can bring into play in order to better understand the workings, meanings (including possible ideological meanings), and effects of materiality that may be at issue. Remember to provide evidence to support your arguments.

Just like all the examples in your reading and videos, I want you to choose an artwork from the Art Resources/ Virtual Museum tab, and create Formal + content analysis.
What to do:
1. Choose
Go to your Virtual Museums list and sift through many pieces of art to find one that you are interested in (your interest should be both Formal and Content). Copy, Paste, Label appropriately.
2. Analyze
Part A: Formal Analysis (Use Vocab from 1.1- 1.9 and stick to 3-4 most important terms you are looking at: not everything you see)
Part B: Choose 2-3 from: Stylistic, Iconographic, Historical, Biographical, Feminist, Gender Studies, Critical Race, Psychological. You will have to do some research here.
High Level Analysis: Point out correlations between the different types of analysis between Part A and Part B.
You may write a Paragraph or use a List form.
3. Source
Provide Sources for your image AND from your research.
4. Reply to 2 others
See if you know/ see anything you can add or any connections that you see that was not mentioned.

Stills from “Diving into an Acidifying Ocean”

Part A Formal Analysis:
Lines: Red Chaotic Organic Lines Run through the entire interaction creating a sense of question.
Color: Contrast with Colors such as Bright, saturated colors on a black background gives a feeling of being underwater and a feeling of not knowing. It also catches attention.
Sound (now I know this was not in your book- but it is a sensory part of this piece so I will include it): Daunting, low base sounds reinforces being underwater and catches your attention as well.
Part B
Stylistic: The style of this piece shows inspiration from pointillism and digital/ computer graphics. Computer graphics originated from Pixels, which is very similar to pointillism (lots of dots that make up form and color). The artist used a ‘sea’ of dots to create form and color.
Iconographical: The red chaotic line, I believe, shows human interactivity as a contrast to the other symbols of life and disposable objects shown. The dots may also symbolize individuals collectively that make a big difference if flocked together.
Historical: Many scientific and historical facts are added to the work to support its main idea and provide information. Example: Historical data on Acidification of Oceans.
Psychological: The daunting, low sounds are similar of a horror film, reinforces horrors of our hand in the future of the oceans. The facts shown in White against a black background also catch our attention and show the seriousness of the subject.

In the late 19th/early 20th centuries, photography, film, and animation became an art form, many times combining traditional drawing and painting techniques with new technologies.
Early pioneers like Eadweard Muybridge, Georges Méliès, and Winsor McCay used technology to advance their art forms. Please select one video below to analyze:
Photography: The Horse in Motion (Eadweard Muybridge, 1878)

Film: A Trip to the Moon (Georges Méliès 1902)

Animation: Gertie the Dinosaur (Winsor McCay, 1914)

Once you make your selection, please do some research on your chosen artist, then answer the following questions:
Did the artist incorporate any “traditional” mediums, i.e., drawing/painting, into their work? If so, how were these techniques combined with technology? How do these early pioneers still influence photography/motion studies, film, and animation more than 100 years later?
Your response should be around three to four paragraphs and prepared in Microsoft Word, double-spaced and uploaded. Please cite your research sources.

*In what way does this book present the social world within which Hobden lived, learned and worked?
*Would you consider Hobden’s use of oral history as going beyond the formal necessities of building what would generally be regarded as an adequate academic analysis of the tattoo phenomenon and its societal interactions? **** Give several examples (i.e. key individuals).
*Is Hobden successful in telling his story – i.e. responding to the “…danger that some of the true characters and heroes of yesteryear will vanish and go unrecorded.” (Hobden, 9)

I want a paper about thermal comfort theories in buildings (for an architecture master course). I want an introduction about the overall topic. Then i want you to mention all the models with a brief of each like: Fangar equation (PMV), Two Nodes model (SET), Adaptive model, etc.
Then i want you yo choose one model and dig deeply in it and explaining all its details and the equation and calculation details. I will really prefer it would be structured as points then explanation of the point then the second point and explanation of it and so on.
Do what you see best but i will need it to be clear and easy to present.
Use sources count as you need.
