Stemming The Flow: Strategies To Address The Production Arts Skills Shortage Within Australian Theatre And Performance Practice, Tessa Rixon, Anthony Brumpton

Behind the Scenes: Journal of Theatre Production Practice

The lockdown, cancellations, and uncertainties of COVID-19 triggered a large-scale exit of skilled professional technicians, managers, and designers from the Australian arts industry. A significant gap in the national workforce of production artists has since emerged, forcing arts organisations to work with smaller teams and employ younger people with little to no training or knowledge. These pressures are beginning to impact the industry’s ability to meet the post-COVID demand to stage live performances, yet little information has been collected to fully comprehend the issue or to suggest solutions.

Conducted throughout 2023, this research sought to understand the current situation of …

Art And Climate : A Creative Awareness, Michel Abou Khalil

BAU Journal - Society, Culture and Human Behavior

The growing engagement of artists with ecological challenges is a significant trend in the Anthropocene era. Most often, some of them feel driven by a sense of responsibility regarding the impact of industry and consumer society on the environment. Their commitment becomes a form of activism, mobilization or even a simple commercial niche to exploit. By observing this enthusiasm in the art world for environmental issues, we can ask ourselves the following questions: despite their sometimes lack of in-depth knowledge, where does the role of artists begin and end in this complex universe? Does their commitment have real power to …

BAU Journal - Society, Culture and Human Behavior

The Ice Company, a dystopian novel, is the first volume of a 64-volume saga which met with great success among readers. It was adapted into a comic strip by the JOTIM group and also into a television series.

Designing Adaptive Facades Using Biomimicry For Improving Daylighting In Office Building: A Case Study Of Cairo, Egypt, Hosam Abd El-Aziz Amr, Nada Essam

Journal of Engineering Research

The paper explores the use of biomimicry to enhance façade design and improve daylighting performance in office buildings in Cairo, Egypt. By emulating natural processes, adaptive facades were developed to increase energy efficiency and occupant comfort. Initial studies examined biomimicry principles and international case studies of adaptive facades. Simulations of a façade inspired by the Gazania flower's nyctinasty movement showed significant improvements: the area achieving optimal illuminance (300-3000 lux) increased from 24.2% to 37.4%, and Spatial Daylight Autonomy (SDA) has decreased from 82% to 68%. These findings demonstrate biomimicry's effectiveness in addressing daylighting challenges in hot climates. The research underscores …

Chris Bush’s Faustus: That Damned Woman (first performed in 2020) is a feminist and contemporary adaptation of Christopher Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus. The magus is a woman who travels through time from the seventeenth century to the far distant future. In the process, Johanna Faustus becomes a brilliant scientist who attempts to create digital immortality by uploading the minds of billions of human beings to the Cloud.
