  • Travelling objects : modernity and materiality in British Colonial travel literature about Africa
  • 2011
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • This study examines the functions of objects in a selection of British colonial travel accounts about Africa. The works discussed were published between 1863 and 1908 and include travelogues by John Hanning Speke, Verney Lovett Cameron, Henry Morton Stanley, Mary Henrietta Kingsley, Ewart Scott Grogan, Mary Hall and Constance Larymore. The author argues that objects are deeply involved in the construction of pre-modern and modern spheres that the travelling subject moves between. The objects in the travel accounts are studied in relation to a contextual background of Victorian commodity and object culture, epitomised by the 1851 Great Exhibition and the birth of the modern anthropological museum. The four analysis chapters investigate the roles of objects in ethnographical and geographical writing, in ideological discussions about the transformative powers of colonial trade, and in narratives about the arrival of the book in the colonial periphery. As the analysis shows, however, objects tend not to behave as they are expected to do. Instead of marking temporal differences, descriptions of objects are typically unstable and riddled with contradictions and foreground the ambivalence that characterises colonial literature.

  • Significant improvement in quality of life of patients with incurable cancer after designation to a palliative homecare team
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Cancer Care. - : Hindawi Limited. - 0961-5423 .- 1365-2354. ; 19:2, s. 243-250
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The aims of this study were to describe and compare quality of life (QOL) before and after designation to a palliative homecare team (PHT) in patients with different cancer diagnoses and to identify pre-designation predictors of post-designation global QOL. We measured patients� QOL one week before designation and 11 days (median time) after with the Assessment of Quality of life at the End of Life (AQEL). Of 163 eligible patient 63 participated without attrition. Patients� QOL improved in the physical, psychological, medical and global areas. Six items significantly improved: hours recumbent during the day (p=.009), nausea (p=.008), anxiety (p=.007), getting hold of staff (p=.000), received care (p=.003) and global QOL (p=.023). Depression/low in mood (r=.55) and meaningfulness (r=.70) associated to global QOL. Furthermore, pain (p=.028) and meaningfulness (p=.028) predicted global QOL. In the existential area, it is important to further explore how meaningfulness is associated to and predicts global QOL.

  • Hybrid collaborative art practices in contemporary public space
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: Sala d'Art Jove 2009. - Barcelona : Generalitat de Catalunya Departament d’acció Social i Ciutadania. - 9788461428700 ; , s. 230-237
  • Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Do you see a capacity for transforming the city, its spaces or the use we make of them in artistic practice? Which public spaces do you use most day to day? Is there hope for the Santa Esperança public laundry? Do you think that Somanyprojects’ action has served to reactivate this space and awaken it in the town’s collective imaginary? Do you know of any other public space particular to women? What does the perspective of an artist offer us that an architect’s doesn’t consider when intervening in a space? What does a collaborative art practice consist of? Can an intervention of this type lead to some type of agencement on the part of the community? Would it be viable to consider more alternative uses of water such as public baths? How do you assess artistic practice as a work methodology for participatory urbanism projects? Would you be in favour of other activities being undertaken in public laundries besides washing clothing and the promotion of tourism? Are we very far off on the part of politicians from designing the cities where we want to live based on the needs of the citizens themselves? Do you have any questions for us? Do you have any questions for yourself?

  • Rethinking public space : other public spaces: community, hybrid collaborative art practices and urban reactivation
  • 2010
  • Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Rethinking Public Space is a research project by Marta Serra Permanyer and Alberto Altés Arlandis that tries to approach the diverse processes of production and transformation of contemporary public spaces as well the relationships that are often established between art, everyday life and the space of the city. The project, that takes a closer look at a series of interventions in the village of Caldes de Montbui (Barcelona) trying to reflect around the idea of hybrid collaborative art practice, has been possible thanks to a research grant obtained from the Sala’d’Art Jove de la Secretaria de Joventut de la Generalitat de Catalunya.The idea was submitted as a proposal to a call for projects during the year 2008 and was selected in the research category. The project has been carefully and attentively tutored by Montse Romaní, who has been able to provide her experience and help in a very generous way while supervising the project.

  • Rethinking public space : hybrid collaborative art practices and spatial piracy in the urban realm
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Re-Public. Re-Imagining Democracy. - Greece : http://www.re-public.gr/en. - 1791-857X. ; February 2011
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • It seems as if the city, its space, its future, its production, were almost exclusively the result of a series of processes and flows taking place at unreachable distance, in un-known locations, mostly determined by the interests and wills of un-localized powers, actors and flows. As if the city could no longer be produced and shaped after the desires of its inhabitants, articulating one or another form of collective will. As if the city was no longer the soul and reason of urban politics but just the mere object of a kind of witty and hygienic managing that understands built space as a market and a product, placing economy at the very center of society.Urban agendas no longer include distributive and social considerations but focus now on economic growth, competitiveness and entrepreneurship. Creative flexibility, efficiency and strategic partnership exclude dissent, conflict and radical criticism nearly foreclosing the political from the face of the city. Cityspace anesthetized. Public space today is planned, designed, defined, segregated, policed, and set up in order to be easily controlled, ‘secured’, and ‘marketized’, in ways that lead to homogenous, uninteresting, smooth and clean surfaces that differ very much from the inherent characteristics of the very idea of public.
