ART AS MIRROR: UNVEILING THE SELF IN EUNICE DE SOUZA’S POEMS
type: item
description: The analysis presented in this paper analyzes the poems of Eunice de Souza in tandem with Dutch paintings, exploring how visual images serve as a means for introspection. Not only does de Souza engage with these pieces of artwork, but she transmutes them, translating painting into an avenue for excavating memory, sorrow, self and spirit. This confessional quality of her work allows for a porous space between observer and observed in which to re-examine traditional constructions of woman. As examined through the poems Women in Dutch Painting, Reprieve, and For S Who Wonders If I Get Much Joy Out of Life, it is clear that de Souza does not take the images at their face value; instead, she interrogates notions of womanhood created through convention. Through her poems, the images gleaned from Dutch paintings cease to be inert objects and instead alter at the moment of critique. While an observer might take the painting at its word, the poet’s pen translates the images from static images into sites of movement, of self-questioning. Each poem, like each word, serves as a fulcrum that can pivot the painting into something beyond the passive visual and into a territory in which identity resists. It is in the space between convention and observation where poetry offers a means of gentle disruption, of altering the implicit meaning of the painting. De Souza meticulously wields image and meter to elongate the canvases into sites where art can mean something more. Through close reading shaped by feminist ideas, this study views de Souza’s poetry as more than description instead, it reshapes how we see art. Her work becomes a site where inner experience meets broader social forces. Meaning shifts actively, not statically, under her words. Rather than mirroring images, she transforms them. Personal voice rises alongside political awareness. One does not overshadow the other they fold into each other unexpectedly. Agency appears quietly, line by line. Identity forms anew through …

THE VANISHED FACE UNDER THE DEATH PENALTY SYSTEM: SEEING THE FACE OF THE OTHER THROUGH ART
type: item
description: This paper will study the persistent public support for capital punishment in Taiwan and explore how it serves as a symbolic social ritual closely linked to the mass psychology, desires and fantasies. A few famous works of research have been cited in this paper, including Foucault's idea of biopolitics, Agamben's theory of the state of exception, Butler's theory of subject formation, and Lacanian/Žižekian theories on desire and fantasy. This paper studies the idea that capital punishment is not only a type of legal punishment but also a way to perform rituals and create a scene to meet deep-seated psychological needs. These symbolic performances reinforce social order but deterring ethical reflection. Thus, the fantasy of justice endures and engagement with the deeper causes of punitive desires is thus avoided. Building on Levinas's idea of the "face of the Other", this paper proposes performance art to intervene in ethical perception by means of embodied alterity. Performance-based artistic analysis is used to explore how the body, alterity, susceptibility and repetition can achieve consciousness states outside of oneself, disrupt normative frames, uncover complicity in punitive rituals, and develop ethically responsible encounters. Rather than substituting one fantasy (punitive justice) with another (ideal abolitionism) through art, this study proposes tense, reflective spaces that reveal the subject's inner divisions and the many, often contradictory, senses of self. Thus, fixed ideas of the self can be dismantled, and the community can be led to confront its own complicities and shared vulnerabilities. The community in this view is not guaranteed by the state or moral ideals. Rather, it is based on an acceptance of the state of lack of being and a fragile relationship with others.

PERCUSSION AND SOCIAL COHESION: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF SAMULNORI AND HIRA GASY
type: item
description: This study explores the multifaceted psychological and socialcultural roles that traditional percussion-based performing arts play in fostering resilience and enhancing emotional well-being accross two distinct cultural contexts: specifically focusing on the nations of Korea and Madagascar. By employing a qualitative comparative research framework, this study examines the Korean Samulnori tradition and Malagasy Hira Gasy as primary cases of community oriented rhythmic expression, that embody the cultural heritage and collective identity of their respective societies. The methodological approach utilized semi-structured interviews and participatory observation with a diverse cohort of practitionners and community members (N=52). The korean cohort (n=10) comprised 2 professional performers and 8 practitioners; the Malagasy cohort (n=42) included performers, youth participants from two-week ateliers, and audience members. Data were analyzed thematically through the lens of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). How do traditionnal drumming ceremonies help us cope in life? Findings reveal that rhytmic performance facilitates emotional regulation, social connection, and collective resilience by providing a structured space for communal belonging. This cross-cultural study addresses a critical gap in contemporary cultural policy by highlighting the measurable psychosocial functions of traditional arts. This study highlights the role of traditional performance not only as cultural heritage but also as a sustainable psychological and sociological resource through a cross-cultural examination.

ART AS A VEHICLE FOR NATIONALISM, IDENTITY, AND MODERNISATION IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY THAILAND
type: item
description: This article extends from the curatorial research underpinning the collaborative exhibition Time is the Substance I Am Made Of, developed in partnership with contemporary Thai artist SIRAWIT CHATU. The exhibition’s feature a triptych, a diptych, and a single-panel acrylic painting, the project explores the reinterpretation of 19th-century Thai historical motifs through a contemporary context. With the practice-based research and visual analysis, the study investigates how art functioned as a critical medium in the construction of Thai nationalism, identity, and modernisation during the reigns of King Mongkut (Rama IV) and King Chulalongkorn (Rama V). The methodology integrates historical inquiry, iconographic analysis, contemporary theoretical perspectives on the concept of time, and curatorial practice, focusing particularly on the adoption of siwilai, a Thai transliteration of "civilise" as a framework through which the monarchy negotiated modernity and sovereignty in response to colonial pressures. By examining the strategic assimilation of Western aesthetics, cultural institutions, and artistic conventions, the research reveals how Thai rulers strategically mobilised visual culture to project a modern national image while preserving cultural specificity, evident in initiatives; the establishment of national museums and the adoption of both traditional fresco techniques and Western oil painting. Case studies include the work of Khrua In Khong, a monastic painter whose innovative integration of Western mural painting techniques, particularly in his use of perspective, depth, and volume into Thai murals, exemplifies this hybridity. The resulting artworks reframe historical narratives in dialogue with contemporary Thai identity and cultural memory. The project demonstrates that curatorial practice can generate new interpretative frameworks for understanding art’s agency in national formation and its resonance in present-day socio-political discourse.

REVITALIZING SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED CITIES THROUGH ART INTERVENTION: REACTIVATING PUBLIC SPACES
type: item
description: By 2050, 70% of the global population will reside in cities, making urban areas central to the future of global life. Currently, large cities have numerous advantages in resident welfare, job opportunities, and public spaces, attracting a large number of young people and ensuring urban vitality. However, this trend has diluted the populations of small and medium-sized cities, causing them to enter an ageing society earlier, and in some cases the risk of disappearing. In order to address this challenge, improving the quality of life of the inhabitants, revitalizing small and medium-sized cities, and rethinking the possibilities of 'activating' urban spaces and branding cities have become important research directions for urban policy makers, designers, and cross-disciplinary collaborations. Artistic interventions are an innovative strategy for the revitalization of small and medium-sized cities and their sustainable social and economic development by enhancing the memory and emotional climate (happiness, sense of belonging, place attachment) of the inhabitants and promoting their cohesion towards the city. This paper analyzes and discusses how artistic interventions can promote innovation and city branding in urban public spaces from both short-term and long-term impact dimensions. Through a simulated practice in the small northern Italian city of Piacenza, the application of the research theory is demonstrated, aiming to provide references and methodologies for sustainable urban regeneration.

COLLECTORS’ PICKS: MAPPING THE MOST POPULAR VINTAGE AUDIO COMPONENTS AMONG VINTAGE ENTHUSIASTS
type: item
description: The soft hum of vintage amplifiers, the subtle crackle of vinyl spinning on turntables, and the warm glow of analog nostalgia are the snapshots of a growing movement that's captivating music enthusiasts worldwide. In the current digital age, there's a turning back the clock to embrace the tangible, the analog, and the soulful sound of vintage audio equipment. There is a community of diverse individuals, from seasoned audiophiles to curious newcomers, drawn together not by the latest technology, but by the allure of decades-old components. It is not merely about collecting artifacts but about joining a cultural revival that's gaining momentum. Not to forget nostalgia plays a significant role in their preferences, with a desire to recapture memories, embrace historical charm, and connect with the past. Hence, this paper examines vintage audio components that vintage enthusiasts love to gather the most in building their vintage audio collections. This study implemented a qualitative approach using self-administered questionnaires involving a total of 48 Malaysian listeners aged between 18 to 56 years old and owned the vintage audio. The data was analyzed to identify common themes and patterns regarding the popularity of vintage components among vintage enthusiasts in Malaysia. The data indicates that the most commonly collected vintage audio components among Malaysian vintage enthusiasts are amplifiers or receivers, turntables, and speakers/speaker systems. This paper contributes to the literature by expressing a deeper understanding of the local vintage audio landscape and offering practical implications for businesses and manufacturers seeking to cater to the unique tastes and desires of vintage enthusiasts in Malaysia. By tapping into the appeal of vintage audio components, companies can create products and marketing strategies that stand out in the market and resonate with consumers on a deeper level.

THE bei CONSTRUCTIONS IN CANTONESE: A CORPUS-DRIVEN STUDY
type: item
description: This paper aims to analyze the Cantonese bei constructions with a ‘corpus-driven’ approach. Bei is a polysemous word with the following meanings: (a) Bei means ‘give’, which can take two nominal objects. (b) Bei is an indirect object marker. (c) Bei is a beneficiary marker. (d) Bei is a causative verb that means ‘allow’, forming a serial verb construction with another verb. (e) Bei is a passive marker in a passive construction. In this paper, around 800 examples of Cantonese bei constructions have been extracted from two corpora: Hong Kong Cantonese Corpus and Hong Kong Cantonese Adult Language Corpus. They are the Cantonese corpora freely available on the internet and reflect the usage of Hong Kong Cantonese in the 1990s. It is found that bei is always followed by one noun phrase, sometimes by two noun phrases, but there are a few patterns involving an ellipsis of the direct object or/and the indirect object, which were seldom addressed in previous studies of double object constructions involving bei. Cantonese bei constructions may result in an ambiguity of causative and passive constructions, of which the syntactic subject can be interpreted as semantic roles as “causer” or “affectee”. The interpretation often depends on pragmatic and contextual factors, which can be examined by the attested language data of the corpora.

THE TRADITIONAL WEDDING ATTIRE OF VIETNAMESE PEOPLE IN HO CHI MINH CITY NOWADAYS
type: item
description: In today’s era, science and technology are crucial keys to innovation and creativity, connecting all fields such as technology, engineering, commerce, and art, as well as connecting artists, researchers, educators, and technologists to create a development era with many changes, new forms, and more choices. In Vietnam in general and Ho Chi Minh City in particular, innovation and technological development have drastically changed almost every aspect, especially the fashion industry, in which the most prominent influences and changes have been in traditional wedding attire. Science and technology have brought many conveniences and innovations to traditional wedding attire, such as accelerating the production process, mass production, and precision cutting and sewing equipment; Vietnamese wedding attire undergoes changes in diverse styles, colors, and artistic decorations in line with global fashion trends or changes in accompanying accessories, meeting all consumer needs. However, alongside these advantages, many elements could affect artistic and humanitarian values, ethics towards society and individuals, and even cultural identity in traditional wedding attire. This trend is particularly evident in the current aesthetic preferences for wedding attire, such as scanty, overly thin, or see-through styles. Traditional attire is an invaluable asset, the core of national identity, and the foundation for creating new values and cultural exchanges. Therefore, research through data collection, information synthesis, and analysis is necessary to highlight the key issues that have shaped the mainstream of traditional wedding fashion in Vietnam, specifically in Ho Chi Minh City, under the influence of science and technology. This research gives comments and determines aesthetic directions to build, develop, and still preserve the cultural identities of traditional wedding attire in Ho Chi Minh City and the country as a whole.

THE DAXIANGGUO TEMPLE BUDDHIST ORCHESTRA OF CHINA: CONTEMPORARY ROLE AND FUNCTIONS
type: item
description: The Daxiangguo Temple is located in Kaifeng City, Henan Province, China, and the center of the ancient capital of the Seven Dynasties. Because of its status as a royal temple, the Buddhist orchestra was involved in several imperial events with a long history and profound cultural heritage. Since July 2002, the Daxiangguo Temple Buddhist Orchestra (DTBO) has been rebuilt. 2007, the DTBO acquired the second national intangible cultural heritage project batch. The author investigates the DTBO in recent years, through ethnographic writing, about the operation of the orchestra in the last 20 years, the content of its performances, and investigates its current situation in terms of cultural inheritance and seeking development after its successful declaration as a national intangible cultural heritage project. Research shows that the DTBO plays an essential role in preserving traditional Chinese music culture and propagating religious beliefs and ethical ideas in modern society. The local government displayed it as a cultural symbol of the Central Plains. The preservation and continuation of cultural genes strengthen the religious consciousness of believers and the sense of belonging and cultural identity of the Central Plains people.

EXPLORING ADVANTAGES OF IN-CLASS FLIPPED LEARNING TO ENHANCE CULTURAL COMPETENCE
type: item
description: This research study is a form of qualitative action research that aims to explore the benefits of in-class flipped learning as a means to enhance student cultural competence in an American Culture course. It was conducted at a university in Vietnam, where the recent COVID-19 pandemic introduced unprecedented online courses for education. However, blending online and offline instructional methods in the classroom was relatively easy for students, contrary to the initial concerns of the stakeholders and society. The instructor implemented in-class flipped instruction to improve the cultural competence of undergraduate business majors in an American Culture course. The focus was on enhancing students' knowledge and perspectives on cultures and learner autonomy through technology. The study was conducted for a semester, and each lesson plan was designed to achieve these objectives. The students had access to a textbook as a reference to explore further. The course created an insightful and collaborative learning environment based on qualitative analysis of the interviews, class observations, and students' work, including weekly assignments and end-of-semester group projects. The study found that college students can quickly improve their mindset with proper guidance and resources. This can be achieved by increasing interactions between students and instructors and transforming learners' mindsets on their responsibility for learning. Overall, this research study shows that in-class flipped learning can effectively enhance cultural competence among students, particularly in courses related to cultural studies and business. It also highlights the importance of creating an interactive and collaborative learning environment to facilitate student learning and development.

eTu{d,b}e: DEVELOPING AND PERFORMING SPATIALIZATION MODELS FOR IMPROVISING MUSICAL AGENTS
type: item
description: The eTube is a simple acoustic instrument outfitted with a microphone and a two-button controller which we program to facilitate interaction between an improviser and improvising musical agents. Through an iterative research-creation process, we develop and perform various etudes with the eTube and musical agents, generating new knowledge through musical creation. Through this process, we have developed two interactive spatialization systems for the eTube. We begin by describing the eTu{d,b}e framework which refers to the eTube instrument and a series of improvised etudes based on human-computer musical interactions. An overview of the instrument is presented, as well as the existing systems as they were when Pocius began the spatialization portion of this project. Secondly, we outline two interactive spatialization systems designed for improvised performance with the eTube and musical agents. An overview of the updates made to the eTu{d,b}e framework is presented, followed by a description of the two spatialization systems. Finally, six different performances are presented as case studies to emphasize the advancements and challenges of the project as new approaches are developed.

EMPOWERMENT THROUGH VIRTUAL REALITY: THE CAPABILITIES OF VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS IN INSPIRING EMPATHY, IMMERSION, AND EMPOWERMENT
type: item
description: With the help of virtual reality (VR), users are able to experience an imaginary world they cannot experience in real life. This study examines the potential of immersive virtual environments to inspire empathy and personal empowerment, particularly regarding social issues. The design process is aided by data and information gathered through interviews and observation of project participants. This research projects include #EmpowermentThroughVR, which reflects on current issues such as the Afghanistan Crisis and the ongoing hardships women in the Middle East confront. Participants in VR simulations view occurrences from the perspective of the individual facing the hardship and are asked to consider its implications and ramifications. This study explores whether participants would remain silent or show empathy for the victims of the catastrophe. The findings demonstrate that people's perceptions and information intake are influenced by their feelings of being present in a virtual space. A real-world experience cannot be compared to a VR experience, but a VR experience is psychologically more potent than a mediated experience. VR enables users to engage with imaginary objects they cannot see or even envision in the physical world. According to the findings, people can feel empowered and experience things in virtual worlds that they would feel uneasy doing in the real world. A set of standards should be followed in VR to produce more realistic experiences that inspire and evoke empathy.

type: item
description: The Jrai ethnic group is the largest in the Central Highlands and has the tenth largest population of Vietnam's 54 ethnic groups so studying Jrai culture, which emphasizes life cycle rituals and their symbols is a meaningful subject full of fascinating insight in to Central Highlands culture. Using qualitative data from ethnographic interviews and participant observation in three villages: Plei Oi, Greo Pet and Ia Glai districts, Chu Se and Phu Thien districts, and applying Clifford Greezt and Victor Turner's symbolism theory, the paper describes, analyzes, and interprets the symbolic meaning in the Jrai life-cycle rituals. The study's findings imply that everyday objects are turned into symbolic objects, supporting the community's moral values in ritual context. For example, the midwife chews ginger and blows into the child's ear, a practice known as " birth ritual". In order to mature into an adult, a youngster is enduring tooth - sharpening ritual. In the wedding ceremony, a couple exchange bracelets each other as a symbol of their lifelong love. To bid farewell to the deceased without regrets, bang the gong anti-clockwise around the corpse's body. The symbolic framework of the life-cycle ritual has been preserved over time, conveying the ideals and identity of the Jrai ethnic group. The study's findings contribute to explain why the Vietnamese government's efforts to preserve ethnic cultures.

HUMAN AND SCIENCE, LAND AND SPACE: A CASE STUDY OF “XU BING TIANSHU ROCKET” BASED ON THE ECOCRITICISM THEORY
type: item
description: Firstly, conceived in the field of geology, the conception of Anthropocene has now been becoming an inspiration for many artists to create their work aimed at reflecting the relationship between human beings and nature. As one of the most representative Chinses contemporary artists, Xu Bing made another bold attempt to combine aerospace with art. In 2021, a rocket was launched from Jiuquan, China, named “Xu Bing Tianshu,” the first one named after an artist and his work. The rocket could not reach outer space as expected but left an unanticipated artwork on the earth: “Xu Bing Tianshu Rocket”: Crater. Adopting the ecocriticism theory, researchers take Xu Bing’s work as a case study to examine the conflictive and inseparable interaction of Science and Art using the method of text analysis based on art reviews, interviews with the artist, and the relevant news reports. The research indicates that the launch might demonstrate the arrogance of human power, but the emergence of the “Crater,” which was considered as a symbol of failure from a scientific standpoint, presents an earth-like work of art that is out of human control and beyond human expectations, by which means the artistic expression questions anthropocentrism in a powerful way. This study would be a pioneering example of viewing space art and land art in the eyes of ecocriticism, which is expected to enrich its critical practice and contributes to a humble reflection of environmental protection

REFIK ANADOL’S CONSTRUCTION OF SPACE AND TIME: SYNESTHESIA BETWEEN MACHINES AND HUMANS
type: item
description: The media artist Refik Anadol’s acclaimed work Machine Memoirs: Space inaugurates the first permanent immersive digital art gallery in the UK, The Real Store. Utilizing machine intelligence to recreate images of the International Space Station, telescopes and NASA satellites, Machine Memoirs: Space provides viewers with an immersive experience of lush visuals and stunning 3D sound, allowing them to experience the spectacle of various spaces. In the age of artificial intelligence, when time and space can be transformed into multiverse experiences by machines, what does it mean to be human? Similarly, a central theme of Andreas Broeckmann’ s book Machine Art in the Twentieth Century is how machines impact the interaction between humans and artistic creations. This book is the first comprehensive study of machine art, examining the aesthetics of machines in art. Within the theoretical framework of Andreas Broeckmann, this study argues that machine-based algorithms in artworks create spectacular artistic experiences through synesthesia between machines and humans. Additionally, the challenge for the human subjectivity is posed by the technicity of visual perceptions. The contributions of this study are divided into two aspects. The investigation of Refik Anadol’s works may contribute towards a better understanding of the theoretical framework of machine art. Additionally, the explanation of the relationship between technology, humans and artworks provides some clues for future digital art creations.

description: This paper examines Cao Fei’s early twenty-first century works which proposes a cyborgian future where Chinese women can take agency of their own body and thoughts through a second skin, to create their personal alternate histories. The paper begins with an exploration of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) to cyborg phenomenon across pop culture, contemporary art and governance. Drawing references from the current AI technology wars between China and America, this paper investigates; (1) China’s motivations behind this ploy, how it affects the marginalized female gender; (2) and focuses on Chinese multimedia artist Cao Fei’s early twenty-first century works, which responds to the social and urban conditions in China hinting on a cyborg solution to take on contemporaneous China. The research aims to convey the hidden qualities that make up the Chinese female cyborg in Cao Fei’s selected works and discusses the capabilities of this empath heroine, by way of a cybernetic adornment, for women in China’s Social Credit System (shehui xinyong tixi –SCS) society. The paper further discusses the body, gender and posthuman politics of the Chinese female cyborg by critiquing the stereotypes it perpetuates and the mind-body to machine ratio that alters the embodied humanness. The discussion concludes with the Chinese female cyborg as “new materialism” that is able to articulate Freud’s “bodily ego” concept and contributes to Donna Haraway’s request for a different relationship for nature/culture that we are faced with. This paper recognizes the patriarchal authoritarian conundrum that will continue to hinder greater equality for women in China and is a call-to-action to consider the many ways art may inform new technologies that can work to benefit all people.
