Är musik konst? - En undersökning av fem ljudskapande mĂ€nniskors syn pĂ„ sitt eget och andras skapande

Syftet med den hÀr uppsatsen Àr att undersöka och synliggöra nÄgra olika sÀtt att se pÄ musik som konst (eller icke-konst). Som metod har jag valt att göra kvalitativa intervjuer med fem personer som, pÄ olika sÀtt och inom olika genrer, skapar musik eller ljudkonst. I intervjuerna har jag försökt ringa in de olika personernas syn pÄ konstbegreppet, pÄ musik i förhÄllande till detta begrepp samt pÄ deras eget skapande. Resultaten visar pÄ fem individuella synsÀtt och personliga definitioner av konst. Vilka intervjupersoner som delar varandras synsÀtt varierar mellan de olika frÄgeomrÄdena och nÄgra generaliserbara slutsatser gÄr inte att dra, vilket inte heller har varit mÄlet med undersökningen.

DÄ, nu och science-fiction : En studie av skönlitteraturens potential att utveckla elevers historiemedvetande

Denna studie undersöker skönlitteraturens potentiella möjlighet att utveckla historiemedvetande hos elever pÄ svensk gymnasieskola. Syftet med undersökningen Àr att se om den skönlitterÀra författaren skapar förutsÀttningar för historiemedvetande och i sÄ fall hur samt visa pÄ hur skönlitteratur kan anvÀndas i en Àmnesövergripande svensk- och historieundervisning enligt Gy11. TvÄ romaner undersöks, den historiska romanen Boktjuven samt science-fiction-romanen Hungerspelen. Dessa romaner dekonstrueras med hjÀlp av analysschemat Inomvetenskaplig och utomvetenskaplig historieskrivning för att se om romanerna kombinerar historieförmedlande och skönlitterÀra grepp i en vÀxelverkan mellan distans och nÀrhet, nÄgot som enligt Carina Renander kan leda till ett potentiellt utvecklat historiemedvetande. Resultatet frÄn denna analys kopplas sedan samman med Gy11 och exempel pÄ undervisningssituationer presenteras.

The implementation is however, in a broad outline, depicted positively..

Studien Ă€r en applicering av Foucaults Övervakning och straff pĂ„ science fiction-romanen The Left Hand of Darkness av Le Guin.

Vi och vÄra andra Om konstruktionen av de andra i svenska lÀromedel. En diskursanalys av fem samhÀllskunskapsböcker för högstadiet.

The purpose of this study is to examine to what extent the senior level Swedish school can be viewed as supporting, or counteracting, a colonial discourse that legitimizes global and national injustices. The study is executed through a discourse analysis of five textbooks in social science for senior level Swedish schools.Using elements from Foucault and Edward Said a theoretical framework is constructed, in which a colonial discourse is perceived as structured around four clusters of ideas, namely (i) the use of dichotomies, (ii) the concept of progress and civilization, (iii) the construction of -we- as synonymous with (ii), and (iv) the construction of -the others- as the opposite of (ii) and, therefore, the opposite of -us-.The results show that a colonial discourse is still highly present in the textbooks, in that the texts are structured around dichotomies such as tradition/modernity and democracy/dictatorship. Sweden and the Western world are perceived as closely associated with democracy, freedom, and modernity, whereas -the others- of the world are being associated with e.g. poverty, conflict, tradition, and ignorance. -The others- within Sweden, i.e.

Anytime-whatever : Om narrativ struktur och temporal upplösning i Stig Larssons Autisterna

This essay is reading the Swedish author Stig Larssons debut Autisterna [The Autists] (1979) in the light of Gérard Genettes narratology and the time philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. The focus of the essay is time and how it is seemingly dissolved. The essay maps out a chronology of the non-chronological novel and from there discusses the breaking up of the empirical time. The essay uses Deleuze to explore the time-image of the novel to see how it is built up in the text for example by literary anyspace-whatevers. Hence the title, Anytime-whatever.

This report describes the work with creating a CMS (Content Manager System). A CMS is a web tool so you easy can publish materials on your web page. With a CM Scan you can without any knowledge of programming web pages create and maintain a web page. This will result in that you and your organisation save time and money. You can also split the responsibility for the webpage in different roles, but still keep the control. We have chosen to create our CMS in a script language called php4 and with the database server MySQL, we have also used JavaScript a lot.

FörÀndring av cyberpunkgenrens stereotypiska nattema

Cyberpunkgenren definieras som en genre med en uttalad mörk framtidsbild med dystopiska inslag dÀr bioteknik och artificiell intelligens Àr Äterkommande inslag och dÀr majoriteten av verken som berör genren utspelar sig pÄ natten. Syftet med denna studie har varit att undersöka om förÀndringar av det stereotypiska nattelementet som cyberpunkgenren förknippas med anses vara genrebrytande. FörÀndringen som gjordes var att nattbelysningen byttes ut mot dagsbelysning i en cyberpunkmiljö. För att genomföra detta skapades en stereotypisk cyberpunkmiljö med hjÀlp av datorgrafik som sedan presenterades i tvÄ versioner, en i nattbelysning och en i dagsbelysning. Bilderna visades dÀrefter upp för en informantgrupp som var kunnig inom science fiction och cyberpunkgenren och som dÀrefter fick besvara ett antal frÄgor under semistrukturerade kvalitativa intervjuer..

Miljöinformation frÄn teori till praktik.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the process of transferring information from science to "the field" of environmental protection in Sweden. I have studied four Swedish environmental organizations, Greenpeace Nordic, WWF Sweden, the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation and Friends of the Earth Sweden to see how they search/get information. I have also studied the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and its role as sender of information, since it is the authority which is responsible for environmental information in Sweden. I have used information and communication theories as a help to analyse my results. While working on this paper I realized that my methods were not the best.
