The Islamization of Images for Religious Socialization. Paper presented at Middle Eastern Studies Association (MESA) Annual Meeting, Washington DC, US

Abstract in UndeterminedPicture books and other visual merchandize for children and youth have a central role in Euro-American Sunni Muslim efforts at religious socialization. The proposed paper aims at making some analytical remarks on the complex cultural interplay inherent to the visual aspects of such pedagogic–cum–commercial material.Islamic children’s literature originated in Muslim American

In and Out of Focus: The Cultural Dynamics of Mediation and Landscape

There are interesting links between older viewing aids like the 1800th Century Claude Glass and recent photographic consumer products like the iPhone application Instagram and the spread of HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography. I will examine these links by juxtaposing them to some issues raised by landscape- and environmental art, as well as theoretical discussions of mediation and landscape. The

Conceptualised Deviations from Expected Normalities: A semantic comparison between lexical items ending in -ful and -less

In our article, we start by posing the question why some adjectival stems can end both in -ful and -less, while others take only one of the endings. Together these items make up around 1% of the entries in a good dictionary. It soon becomes clear that we need to use several basic concepts from cognitive linguistics to answer our question: boundedness, mass vs. individual, part-whole relations and

Into the Paucity of Anxious Isolation: Time-Space Appropriation and the Liberalization of Suffering

“Capacity building” in DRM is typically approached through an access model that normalizes technical transfers of innovations from ‘developed’ to ‘developing’ areas. Through a framework of world systems political ecology, normalization of this flow is shown to be a mystification of the social relations of exchange that undergird the manufacture of such innovations. “Capacity building” turns out to

Analysis of sound transmission loss of double-leaf walls in the low-frequency range using the finite element method

The sound transmission loss of double walls in the low-frequency range is studied by means of structure-acoustic finite element analysis. The analysis simulates standard experiments to determine sound transmission loss of walls. The model is a detailed description of the geometry of the system, including both the double wall and the rooms acoustically coupled to the wall. The frequency range studi

Multimodal Interaction Chromatography for the Investigation and Separation of Proteins

Minor structural changes on the surface of proteins can have tremendous impact on their biological properties. When producing therapeutic proteins it is therefore important to verify that the generated protein is the desired one. Small variations such as glycosylations or amino acid substitutions can mean the difference between a functional, defective or even toxic product. This thesis describes
