This choreography is started from Practice based Research. The research is about Dajang Rindoe’s manuscript which is deconstructed. In the process of cultivation of this work, the foundation of creation used text deconstruction, creativity, and choreography. Text deconstruction is implemented in finding the new point of view of the women freedom. Creativity approach is used for the reason that the artwork creation is not separated from the thinking process and work creatively. By this approach, the way of thinking and working creatively will be developed. The third approach that is choreography is used as the foundation in creating the dance aesthetic that involving the body movement, composition, unity, harmony, behaviour and other visual aspects. CONSISTENCY dance work is a description about woman toughness to get her freedom in order to maintain her integrity. The freedom that need the full struggle for her to get. Because the freedom itself has the meaning to be able to live independently and responsibly. In the real life, the freedom women who able to preserve her firmness independently and responsibly are very scarce. The imbalance of this firmness then fades the women integrity.

This paper examines the mental revolution in applying the Islamic economics system which is expected to open the horizon of humans’ thought, especially Muslims, so as they are always careful in carrying out all economics activities. The significance embodied in the idea of the mental revolution is the transformation of the ethos, namely the fundamental change in the mentality, the way of thinking, the way of feeling, and the way of believing that is proven in daily behavior and actions. The mistake which occurs in the economics system of this modern era vastly needs a mental revolution to restore the consciousness of economics actors that the world is only an intermediary towards the real life in hereafter so that the economics activities will constantly be performed with good and correct actions dealing with Al-Qur’an and As-Sunnah.

Buscamos, neste trabalho, compreender o significado da Dança para pessoas portadoras de deficiência visual, na perspectiva de uma abordagem fenomenológica. Para isso, coletamos os discursos de 13 (treze) sujeitos que experimentam a vivência da Dança no presente momento de suas vidas. Não nos preocupamos com estilos prédeterminados de Dança, mas sim com a vivência e o olhar do sujeito em relação à sua experiência na Dança. A partir dos discursos coletados, orientados por nossa interrogação: "O que é isto, vivenciâr a Dança para você?", trilhamos nossos entendimentos e reflexões visando compreender o significado do corpo que dança com seus próprios olhares. De modo coerente com os fundamentos da pesquisa fenomenológica, procuramos encontrar uma perspectiva particular, em um determinado momento, e olhamos para o fenômeno situado, buscando aprofundar-nos na essência desse universo. A study was carried out to investigate the understanding of the significance of Dance for visually handicapped persons, using a phenomenologicaí approach. We collect the discourses of 1 3 (thirteen) subjects, ali of them being involved in a Dance experience at the time of the study. Our concern was not about pre-determined dance-styles, but about the real-life experience and the point-of-view of the subjects about their dance experience. The question to be answered by the subjects was: "What does it mean foryou do experience dance?", and it was based on the collected discourses that we traced our understanding and reflections, aiming to understand the significance of the body that dances, wíth their own eyes. Therefore, according to the rationale of the phenomenologicaí research, we aimed to find a particular perspective, at a certain moment,- we looked at the situated phenomenon, trying to enter the essence of this unique universe.

Abstract This article focuses on the way Indian bodybuilders negotiate spatial and temporal constraints offline (in “real” life) as well as online. These bodybuilders, who often make a living as personal trainers, display and advertise their bodies online in various stages of being and becoming, ranging from off-season/bulking stage to on-season/cutting stage when they start making the body ready for competition. This article discusses what it means to have an offline body that represents one temporal stage while at the same time maintaining a plethora of such (previous) stages online, to be consulted by others (e.g., aspiring bodybuilders, clients, and admirers). This article shows how these bodily representations and realities interact with various expectations and idealizations of the male body. The article proposes to think through the (re)presentation of these bodies via the dyad of im/mortality. The immortal body here is one that is multiple and can be accessed/consulted online by others at all times. The mortal body, in contrast, exists in or represents reality offline, referencing a state of becoming and eventual unbecoming. This article explores the tension produced through this opposition between questions of mortality offline and the quest for immortality online. While this article takes this oppositional structure as its point of departure, its ultimate aim is to upset the various dyads it builds on to show that the (bodybuilder’s) body always occupies multiple spheres across time and space, ultimately producing a hybridization of the real.

<p class="p1">The third number of <span class="s1"><strong>INTER</strong></span><span class="s2"><strong>disciplina </strong></span>underscores this generic reference of <em>Bodies </em>as an approach to a key issue in the understanding of social reality from a humanistic perspective, and to understand, from the social point of view, the contributions of the research in philosophy of the body, cultural history of the anatomy, as well as the approximations queer, feminist theories and the psychoanalytical, and literary studies.</p>


spontaneously invented a name for the creature derived from the most prominent features of its anatomy: kamdopardalis [the normal Greek word for ‘giraffe*]. (10.27.1-4) It is worth spending a little time analysing what is going on in this passage. The first point to note is that an essential piece of information, the creature’s name, is not divulged until the last possible moment, after the description is completed. The information contained in the description itself is not imparted directly by the narrator to the reader. Instead it is chan­ nelled through the perceptions of the onlooking crowd. They have never seen a giraffe before, and the withholding of its name from the reader re-enacts their inability to put a word to what they see. From their point of view the creature is novel and alien: this is conveyed partly by the naive wonderment of the description, and partly by their attempts to control the new phenomenon by fitting it into familiar categories. Hence the comparisons with leopards, camels, lions, swans, ostriches, eyeliner and ships. Eventually they assert conceptual mastery over visual experience by coining a new word to name the animal, derived from the naively observed fea­ tures of its anatomy. However, their neologism is given in Greek (kamdopardalis), although elsewhere Heliodoros is scrupulously naturalistic in observing that Ethiopians speak Ethiopian. The reader is thus made to watch the giraffe from, as it were, inside the skull of a member of the Ethiopian crowd. The narration does not objectively describe what they saw but subjectively re­ enacts their ignorance, their perceptions and processes of thought. This mode of presentation, involving the suppression of an omniscient narrator in direct communication with the reader, has the effect that the reader is made to engage with the material with the same immediacy as the fictional audience within the frame of the story: it becomes, in imagination, as real for him as it is for them. But there is a double game going on, since the reader, as a real person in the real world, differs from the fictional audience inside the novel precisely in that he does know what a giraffe is. This assumption is implicit in the way the description is structured. If Heliodoros* primary aim had been to describe a giraffe for the benefit of an ignorant reader, he would surely have begun with the animal’s name, not withheld it. So for the reader the encounter

This chapter assesses the real-life case study of Iceland to illustrate some of the principles of open democracy. It closely examines the 2010–13 Icelandic constitutional process from which many of the ideas behind this book originally stem. Despite its apparent failure — the constitutional proposal has yet to be turned into law — the Icelandic constitutional process created a precedent for both new ways of writing a constitution and envisioning democracy. The process departed from representative, electoral democracy as we know it in the way it allowed citizens to set the agenda upstream of the process, write the constitutional proposal or at least causally affect it via online comments, and observe most of the steps involved. The chapter also shows that the procedure was not simply inclusive and democratic but also successful in one crucial respect — it produced a good constitutional proposal. This democratically written proposal indeed compares favorably to both the 1944 constitution it was meant to replace and competing proposals written by experts at about the same time.

The research paper addresses the issue of the impact of MMORPGs on social culture and communication skills of individuals. The mainstream discourse about computer games which take individuals away from reality and substitute the real life by the fictional one is complemented by brand new ideas, which affirm that computer games do not substitute but supplement the real life and expand its possibilities. To confirm the presented point of view we use diagnostic questionnaire of interpersonal relations by A.A. Rukavishnikov. This questionnaire is aimed to evaluate typical ways of respondent’s attitude towards other people. At this point we have 43 gamers and 29 non-gamers involved in our research, aged 18 to 57. The comparison of a user and non-user answers gives a bigger view on an overall gaming experience. In the obtained indices we note that there are no fundamental differences between MMORPGs gamers and ordinary people. During research, MMORPGs users have showed many important social interaction skills such as striving to control own actions, collaborate with others, though with a low interest in emotionally charged relationships. Authors discuss the idea about the differences between addiction and fascination among gamers.

The composition of the battle of Til-Tuba from Sennacherib's palace at Nineveh is usually described as a relief depicting a recorded historical event. It is considered a good and solid example of the Assyrian concern with history and the Assyrian propensity for propagandistic depictions of current events. The scene, which is surely saturated in the ideology of empire, has already been discussed from that point of view. Is it true to the historical event? Is it an exaggeration? Did the Assyrians really do these things? How close or how distant is this depiction of the battle from the real historical event of war?The Assyrian method of representation is generally one that is attentive to minute details and concerned with ethnographic accuracy, even when the composition is hierarchical and representations of the body are stylised into abstract patterns. Realism is certainly a distinctive aspect of Assyrian narrative art and accurate details of dress and landscape were used to create what Roland Barthes would have called the effect of the real.

The assumption that each road participant adheres to the rules, ideally adapts his behavior to the prevailing road conditions, is unrealistic, and as the basis for taking action can lead to collisions and accidents. The article presents the theoretical models allowing to understand the behavior of drivers who deliberately enforce the priority of passing, and their only motivation is the shortest travel time through the intersection. Two types of situations at crossroads are considered: with guided and non-guided traffic with the STOP sign. The presented mathematical models are illustrated by the real-life recordings of drivers available on the Internet.

There are so many speeches delivered by such famous people in this world. But, if we are asked to give the point of view about the impact of each speech delivered then the speech from Martin Luther King Jr. will convey the high meaning in term of rethorical speech especially the content and the context about the concepts of repetition found. The speech was on 28th of August 1963, at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C in a verbal ways and its text become the secondary data to be analyzed with much focus on emphasizing phrases, words or sentences. By using the concept of rethoric perspective through repetition such as anaphora, epistrophe and epizeuzis, the researcher wants to know the values behind the repetition. That is why, the analysis is using the descriptive qualitative research on taking the secondary data that has been adapted from the video and the text of the speech itself. The conclusion especially on the ideas of repetition are that Martin Luther King Jr. tries to make sure his audiences about that 1) the repetition is something more that the meaning itself, it is above. 2) The struggle, it is something true, needs to be realized in the real life, and adds the weight of the expection to be equal and free.
