1. 36. Material perception and action : The role of material properties in object handling

   Författare :Kristin Ingvarsdottir; Kognitiv modellering; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; material perception; visual properties; motor planning; cognition; humanoid robot;

   Sammanfattning : This dissertation is about visual perception of material properties and their role in preparation for object handling. Usually before an object is touched or picked-up we estimate its size and shape based on visual features to plan the grip size of our hand. LÄS MER

3. 37. Composing over time, temporal patterns : in Textile Design

   Författare :Barbara Jansen; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; temporal patterns; textile design; Textiles and fashion; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

   Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis investigates through practice a new field of textile design exploring the visual effects of moving light as a continuous time-based medium. Thereby, the textile design pattern reveals its composition, not in one moment of time any more, but in fact over time. LÄS MER

4. 38. Composing over time, temporal patterns : in Textile Design

   Författare :Barbara Jansen; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; temporal patterns; textile design; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

   Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis is a first attempt investigating a new field, exploring the visual effects of movement using light as a continuous time-based medium. Composing over time, temporal patterns - in Textile Design is a practice based research project that investigates the following research question: What does it mean, if time and change – constant movement – becomes part of the textile design expression? The research question has been investigated in a number of experiments that explore the visual effects of movement using light integrated into textile structures as a medium. LÄS MER

5. 39. After idealism and difference : subjects of yellow feelings and sentimental narratives of migration

   Författare :Lan Kieu; Maria Carbin; Linda Berg; Lene Myong; Umeå universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : After Idealism and Difference is a critical and ethical project of reading the postcolonial other. Taking a void from postcolonial and poststructuralist feminist critique, my thesis aims to deconstruct the privilege of the “marginalia” as the beloved object of feminist scholarship. LÄS MER

7. 40. Creating diverse colour-changing effects on textiles

   Författare :Marjan Kooroshnia; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; dynamic textile patterns; leuco dye-based thermochromic inks; textile design; Smart textiles; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

   Sammanfattning : With the technological progress of materials science, the palette of colours with which to print on textiles has expanded beyond those with previously known properties and expressions to a new generation, with more advanced functionality and expressive properties. This new range of colours is characterised by their ability when printed on textiles to change colour in relation to external factors and internal programmes; for example, leuco dye-based thermochromic inks generally change colour in response to temperature fluctuations.
