Fragmented, Max Rebel
College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations
This thesis, Fragmented, outlines Rebel’s explorations with materials and techniques that led to the creation of his current work that was presented in his MFA Exhibition. Fragmented focuses on elements of abandoned and ignored structures found in both urban and rural communities. Rebel is interested in the visual characteristics directly related to manufactured landscapes that have been reshaped by neglect, specifically, surfaces that appear old and weathered. The assemblages he makes in reference to these deserted sites do not comment on specific architectural locations. Instead, they are meant to emphasize common traits found at multiple sites. By working with …

Illustrated Tales Of Little Sister Fox: Stories About A Clever Fox From Russian Fairytales, Rachel W. Smoot

Illustrations are hand sketched and digitally painted.

Italian And Spanish Influence On Selected Works Of Mexican Composers: María Grever, Ignacio Fernández Esperón “Tata Nacho,” And Agustín Lara, Manuel M. Castillo
Theses and Dissertations--Music
The last decades of the 19th Century and the first decades of the 20th Century encompass a revolutionary movement worldwide. The growth and advances throughout all disciplines of study and especially the collaboration across Literature, Music, Performing Arts, Culture and Politics became stronger and more evident than ever before.
As the Mexican Revolution (1910) developed in frightening fights, the country became increasingly insecure and violent. It was the duty of the living artist to create pathways to escape reality, embellishing the surroundings with its music, paintings and poetry. This climate is what paved the way to the bohemian living-style that …
The Frozen Moment: Representations Of Space, Time And The Experiential In Installation Art,

The Frozen Moment: Representations Of Space, Time And The Experiential In Installation Art, Alexandra Trimm
Scripps Senior Theses
This paper examines the history of installation art and explains the concept and themes within my installation component of the studio art major. It details how readymades, site-specificity, and an emphasis on experiential work all contributed to the creation of installation art as a medium. Next, I turn to my own work, exploring the theme of representing time and altering the perceptions of the viewer. Through a web of fishing line and tempered glass, the installation visually imitates a single, frozen moment of an explosion that the viewer can walk into and explore. The paper continues with a discussion of …

Placebo Nocebo, Charles Francis Duda
All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects
My work investigates the argument of nature vs. nurture, and explores the influence of time, place and context in creating perspective, stress, memories, and learned behaviors. Tragedy, terrorism, chemical warfare, bombs. These are all pressing issues. However, if one wants to look at killers that dwarf any terror attack, than look no further than your kitchen table. Diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension are true terrors because they are silent killers. Placebo Nocebo and The Big Event are investigations of lifestyle, culture, personal choices and the positive or negative potential they have in the context of their environment.

Transformational Directing: An Analysis On How Leadership Affects The Creative Process, James Clayton Winters
Theses and Dissertations
Leadership is often ascribed as a quality one either possess or doesn’t. We often hear phrases like “She is born leader” or “All eyes are on you”, these are thrown around without discretion in the classroom, conference rooms, social gatherings, and business meetings. This work contends that leadership and in particular leadership that grows and transforms its participants is less an inherent character trait, than an outlook and set of core principles that lead to transformation. Through the application of current and developing business leadership theory and its effect on creativity and a cross analysis of “Best in Class” theatre …
