Historical Narrative In The Music Of Sid Meier’S Civilization Vi, Alec Larner

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is a 2016 strategy video game in which the player leads a historical civilization from 4000 BC to the present. The Civilization series is the subject of much scholarly writing, especially its representation of history and non- Western cultures. My work builds on Karen Cook’s research (2014) on the technological progress and American hegemonic identity signaled by Civilization IV’s soundtrack. I argue that the music in Civilization VI contributes to a Eurocentric teleological progress narrative of history inherent in the structure of the game: the idea that history is a story of inevitable and positive …

The Bridal Industry: Body Image And Sizing Charts, Natalie Knapp

Apparel Merchandising and Product Development Undergraduate Honors Theses

The apparel industry in the United States of America lacks a unified size chart. This inconsistency allows vanity sizing and individual retailers to preside over the systematic regulations of sizing. The bridal industry is the singular industry that is not affected by vanity sizing in the United States, which causes a plethora of issues when coupled with the media’s thin ideal and push of certain body standards.

The project utilized four sections of literature review: regarding sizing inconsistency, mass media and size dysphoria, United States standard of sizing, and brides and weight loss. Additionally, four different size charts from four …

Preparing An Animated Series Concept For A Television Ready Pitch, Weston Hooper

Master of Fine Arts in Digital Media Culminating Experience

Television pitches are the first step towards launching a series. This paper focuses on that process and answers the question, “from developing concept art to preparing a polished and professional pitch, what are best practices for winning a network contract?” Getting a pitch requires several steps, such as finding an agent or a producer, and presenting the story, character relationships, and artwork to show your vision. Using my project, “Dynamite Decoys,” to create a story line, sketches, turnaround sheets, and key art scene pieces, I put it all together to formulate a television-ready pitch.

Triadic Pattern Total Theatre As A Model For Theater Directing Methods Based On The Construction Of Triangtu Sundanese Philosophical Values, Tatang Rusmana

International Review of Humanities Studies

The three basic values of the philosophy of life belonging to the culture of the Sundanese people in Indonesia are the principles of triadic patterns of life contained in the Tritangtu Sunda philosophy. The three basic philosophical values contain a view of the division of triadic worlds, namely Buana Nyungcung (upper world, metaphor; sky, water, and women), Buana Larang (underworld, metaphor; earth, land, and men), and Buana Pancatengah ( Middle world, metaphor; stone, human, male and female, and life behavior). Tritangtu Sunda is a cosmic perspective of the unification of three interconnected worlds in the life of the Sundanese people. …

Situated Interior, Paramita Atmodiwirjo, Yandi Andri Yatmo

Interiority

The idea of a situated interior reflects the conceptual understanding of an expanded range of interiority from the self to the outside world; it involves traversing rigid boundaries to allow fluidity and continuity. The situated interior considers the critical role of other things in defining the interior practice, from the practice of inhabitation and the practice of making and designing to the dynamic formation of the discipline. The collection of articles in this issue of Interiority demonstrates the numerous ways particular situations define the practice of design, inhabitation, and the discipline of the interior. The narratives of various situations presented …

Interiority And Agency: Exploring Self In Context With Others In The Act Of Creation, Barbara Young

Interiority

This investigation seeks to extend the discourse on interiority. I am an interior designer and, therefore, pose questions as they relate to design process, specifically that the concern regarding interiority is not necessarily something to design for, but as designers, it affects how and what we design. The presented cases are artistic explorations that provided an opportunity to interrogate interiority as it relates to my cognitive and creative process. Through an auto-ethnographic account, I present two acts of making. In the creation process, I interrogate meaning-making and perception that constitutes my subjective interiority, which can only be understood in context. …

Korean Public Bathhouse: Potential Of Interiority, Michelle Boyoung Huh

Interiority

This essay introduces the Korean public bathhouse, jjimjil-bang, to understand the concept of interiority from sociocultural and psychological perspectives. The author addresses interiority as a continuous process of defining the range of intimacy that changes with context, space, and time. Interiority involves individuating spatial and situational moments in the blended physical, perceived, and imaged environment. In exploring interiority, the case of jjimjil-bang suggests broad perspectives for understanding spatial circumstances as an integration of the activity, environment, and situation. The author introduces the characteristics of jjimjil-bang in terms of the program, spatial structure, and meaning of memory. To demonstrate the …

Illusory Interior: Public Housing As Uncanny Site, Dea Aulia Widyaevan

Interiority

In 2021, Indonesia participated in the London Design Biennale, focusing on the theme of Resonance. The pavilion's response centred around public housing as an uncanny site, examining the psychological barriers faced by evicted communities during their transition to public housing.

Interiority

This study explores to determine the live-work housing needs of low-income older people in informal settlements, the ways of life of whom contemporary housing provision often fails to consider. A questionnaire survey was conducted in three communities in Klong Toey, the largest informal settlement in Bangkok, to understand households’ satisfaction levels and expectations regarding the interior quality of their live-work housing. Older people’s specific interior spaces and housing requirements and expectations vary depending on the nature of their livelihood activities that can be categorised into three main groups, namely service, cook, and stock. The findings suggest a strong relationship between …

The Emergence Of Interior Architecture, Maryam Darbandi, Nadieh Imani, Mohammadreza Rahimzadeh

Interiority

Less than a century has passed since the creation or at least the use of the term interior architecture. Although interior architecture had existed before and was considered an inseparable part of architectural work, some developments and changes became the basis for the formation of interior architecture and, as a result, its appearance independently of architecture. The main impact of these developments in the independence of interior architecture can be traced to the 19th and 20th centuries when the field of two specialisations of the same family, interior decoration and interior design emerged. This article aims to take a …

Manifestations Of Urban Interiority In Delhi Gate Bazaar Of Lahore, Sarah Javed Shah, Carles Muro

Interiority

In the contemporary debate, the notion of interiority has expanded beyond the confines of the interior, in the urban realm, as a conjunction of urban and interior conditions. This article aims to contribute to the discourse, using the lens of urban interiority to explore the unique spatial character and distinct cultural practices in Lahore’s Delhi Gate Bazaar. The bazaar exists on a linear passageway, the Royal Trail, as a network of interior, exterior, and in-between spaces—establishing a spatial continuum by blurring the boundaries between the public and private and uninterrupted flow of spaces from outside to inside. This urban space …

Designing Ourselves And Our World: A Designer-Weaver's Perspective On Services, Marcelo Ramirez

ServDes Conference Series

This paper argues that design, particularly service design, plays a significant role in shaping our world by constructing and reconstructing our understanding of it. Rather than a mere means to an end, design is a tool for controlling and producing meaning. Service design plays a crucial role in this process, as it mediates interactions between people and their everyday contexts through services. Design can be seen then as a way of generating culture. By exploring a more systemic approach, service designers can better understand how services shape people's lives and address underlying narratives and discourses that frame relationships between people …

A Study Of Product Service System For Product Family Based On Extension Design, Tao Chen, Ding-Bang Luh, Xing-Sen Li

ServDes Conference Series

This paper, from the perspective of extension design, investigates the product family architecture composed of demand domain, functional domain, technology domain, and physical domain and establishes a product service system, which is centered on the product family development platform, based on the extension innovation method. The basic-element logic language and method of extension design is employed to analyze the characteristics of product family design including generalization, parameterization, modularization, and intelligence. In this paper, the product family design platform, including four models and three resource libraries, is developed through the formalized and modeled basic-element representation, configuration of modular elements, and intelligent …

Emergent Scoring Of The Temporal Experience, An Investigation Into Service Mapping, Michael Arnold Mages, Stephen Neely

ServDes Conference Series

The design of services relies heavily on different mapping approaches to develop an overview of service architecture. Scholars largely agree that a key goal of service mapping should be the structuring of experience over time, yet the three most prevalent approaches to mapping service — customer journey maps, service blueprints, and system diagrams — fail to represent important aspects of the temporal experience. Current tools continue to center physical touchpoint attentions and struggle to depict more complex narratives of improvisatory customer/provider interactions. Notating the lived journey of temporally unfolding experience is not a simple task. Accomplishing this will require a …

Life Events As An Approach For Service Ecosystem Design: Lessons Learned From The Finnish Public Services, Núria Solsona Caba, Taija Turunen

ServDes Conference Series

Life event services have emerged worldwide as an approach for designing public services by addressing significant transitions in life and building an ecosystem around them. We study this approach as an opportunity to engage the ecosystem in a novel manner. Empirically, we investigated three digital public service cases in Finland that leverage the life events approach. Life transitions make gaps between systems visible to the large and complex network of value-creators. Life events is a unifying term for public administrations, cross-sector organisations, and communities involved as providers. Whilst this approach uncovers an underserved set of actors and situational motivations, it …

Trust In The System And Human Autonomy In Customer Service Chatbots, Ana Gervazoni, Manuela Quaresma

ServDes Conference Series

When Artificial Intelligence systems are not explained clearly to users, it can negatively affect their interactions and compromise their perceptions of a brand. When designing and developing conversational agents that deal with the client, it is crucial to consider that they are a service and follow human-centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) approaches. This study discusses two HCAI frameworks, relate them to trust in the system and human autonomy and define how these guidelines could be met in customer service chatbot. A survey was conducted to determine if users' views about their interactions with chatbots aligned with the recommended guidelines and how …

Providing It Services For Enterprises Through The Adoption Of Information And Communication Technologies (Ict) In Restricted Environments: A Participatory Design Process To Refine The ‘Telework For People In Prisons’ Program In Colombia, Luz Alba Gallo

ServDes Conference Series

Since 2015, Colombia has been pioneering technology education in prisons by providing Telework certifications and bringing ICT access to prisoners in civil and military prisons. The goal of this program is for convicts to provide IT services to enterprises as part of their resocialization process. Although this program presented clear benefits for the prisoner’s resocialization process, implementing this initiative as a service was challenging due to several restrictions from the context and the grey areas in the related regulations that the prison ecosystem presented. In 2017, two years after the first phase of the program was deployed, the Ministry of …

Differences And Similarities Between Service Design And Ux Design: A Proposal, Diogo Camillo

ServDes Conference Series

This article aims to review service design (SD) and UX design (UXD) with the intention of proposing a delineation of the differences and similarities between service design and user experience design. The focus of this proposal is to emphasize service design as a field of knowledge and to enable future explorations of UXD contributions to SD and not the other way around. The specific purposes are: 1) differentiate the particularities of service design; 2) differentiate the particularities of the UX design; 3) list points of convergence between service design and UXD; mitigate terminological ambiguities. It is expected to find in …

Between Diving, Breathing And Splashing: Metaphors As Lenses To Inquire Public Innovation Initiatives, Caio Werneck, Isabella Brandalise

ServDes Conference Series

This paper focuses on metaphors as a methodology to design and reflect on design-led initiatives in the public sector. We are drawing on the experience of a capacity-building program developed in 2020 by Enap (National School of Public Administration) in partnership with teams of the Brazilian federal government, in which we conducted four projects through the metaphor of a collective dive. When analyzing the effects of the projects through conversations with participants, we expanded the metaphor, understanding the reflections as breathing, the project conditions as bubbles and currents, and the results as splashes. We see splashes as variable yet rarely …

Designing For Logic Hybridity In New Service Development: A Case Of The Estonian Youth Mental Health Systems, Eva Liisa Kubinyi, Meghan Lazier, Maarja Mõtus, Josina Vink

ServDes Conference Series

Amid the shift to embrace systems thinking within service design, there is often a tendency to reduce many coexisting systems into one. This paper builds on recent literature that calls for a more mindful approach to working with plurality amid and between systems in service design. Using a research through design approach in the context of Estonia youth mental health systems, this paper presents a framework for holding onto the tensions that arise between multiple logics in new service development and maintaining logic hybridity in the service design process. By exploring how such a framework informs service design decisions and …

Exploring The Systemic And Speculative Dimensions Into Service Design, Zijun Lin, Beatrice Villari

ServDes Conference Series

The scale and process of Service Design are expanding and evolving as the emerging challenges they face become increasingly complex and uncertain. In order to cope with the systemic complexity and uncertainty of future changes when designing service (eco)systems, more holistic and speculative dimensions are needed to be considered. In the field of design, Systemic Design and Speculative Design are considered to have the capacities to deal with systemic complexity and critically consider future uncertainty. Therefore, this study aims to explore from the theoretical level to the operational level to understand if and how Systemic Design and Speculative Design can …

Issues Integrating Urban Data And Citizen Participation, Raquel Cordeiro, Manuela Quaresma, Isabel Froes

ServDes Conference Series

The smart city concept goes beyond expanding technology, including sustainability and citizen well-being. The growth of available datasets provides rich material for public management. However, the potential of this information is underused due to its breadth and complexity. One key challenge is associating it with qualitative research. To address this challenge, within the scope of a PhD research, a set of interviews were carried out with professionals working in the area of smart city and public development in three European cities. The aim was to identify issues and solutions in projects with urban data and citizen participation and better grasp …
