description: As for the Butterfly Effect, our actions resonate widely and far. A singular affordance or a city-wide tag, premeditated or not, conforms to our collective reality. But more specifically, is there something that occurs in Lisbon (and other places) that we can designate as a useful non-conformity with the norm? Taking this idea to the extreme, do our societal organizations serve as mere masks for the true anarchy of everyday life? In times of localized conflicts with global impact, from the nearly irrelevant comfort to life-threatening confrontations, what is the role of our material actions? In the realms of ideas or self-proposed solutions, what can we learn from our micro-actions? If there is indeed a common global phenomenon that emerges from mark-making as a life-standing condition, how can we interpret these marks for the sake of life? Can we generalize?

type: item

Migration and Urban Culture in East Germany. Representing Localities in Birgit Weyhe’s Graphic Novel Madgermanes.
type: item
description: The representation of the aesthetic and political dimensions of the city in the case of comics as a medium touches on a range of issues, from the relationship between comics and street art as well as the representation of urban space and popular culture as identity-shaping factors. Birgit Weyhe’s graphic novel Madgermanes (2016) shows us a specific historical context: after the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, a labor force was also needed in East Berlin, as a result of which the leadership invited cheap manpower from communist-oriented countries such as Vietnam, Cuba, Angola, or Mozambique. A total of around 15,000 guest worker immigrants arrived from the latter country in East Berlin within a decade. Three of them are the protagonists of the examined graphic novel, where their stories of integration difficulties, coping practices about finding a home, and rootlessness are told. In the case of the process of acculturation narrated in the medium of comics, the visual representation focuses on the contrast between cultures and the crisis of identity. In this particular graphic novel, this cultural shock is present through the popular and urban culture of the 1970s and 1980s. In this paper, we examine how this graphic novel intersects representations of locality, everyday life, and urban space with the perceptions and experiences of interculturality and media culture.

The Beginnings and Developments of Higher Education in Kosovo
type: item
description: With a particular focus on higher education between 1960 and 1970, this theoretical research aims to elaborate and shed light on the educational developments in Kosovo over the XXth century. The study aims to address every issue raised by the subject without neglecting its chronological aspect. The development of higher education in Kosovo has been examined, debated, and discussed in light of the political, economic, and social changes that occurred in Kosovo during this time period, as well as how those changes affected the development of higher education. The current study deals with two main issues in the history of higher education in Kosovo: the first, "Pedagogical and professional schools in Kosovo, 1960-1970"; and the second, "The opening of faculties in Prishtina, as a branch of the University of Belgrade, 1960-1970". It deals with the factors and reasons for the opening of the first faculties in Prishtina; the development and consolidation of the Faculty of Philosophy in 1960; the Faculty of Law and Economics in 1961; the Faculty of Technology in 1965; and the Faculty of Medicine in 1969. This study was prepared and written using a scientific methodology, largely employing archive sources, the historical press in Albanian and other languages, as well as selected historiographical and pedagogical literature, etc. During the scientific research, based on numerous sources, an effort was made to research, elaborate, analyze, and reach the most accurate conclusions about the development and role of higher education in Kosovo during the 1960-1970 period.

The Factors affecting urban art development in the Mekong Delta, Viet Nam
type: item
description: The study's objective is to evaluate the state of art's development in Mekong Delta urban regions in Vietnam. The results from 150 interview forms identified two groups of factors, including type and historical-cultural value with 12 variables; order and community interaction with 9 variables. With a coefficient of KMO = 0.94 and a total variance of 67.02%, types include trees, lights, construction works, statues, and paintings, distributed in parks, squares, main roads, government agencies, and private establishments. There is a difference in people's interest in urban art in 3 types of cities. Urban art in urban areas is assessed to meet people's needs.

Pedestrian-Oriented Urban Space with emphasis on Sabzeh-e-Meidan Pattern
type: item
description: With the arrival of cars in cities, urban spaces, especially squares, have become a space for cars to dominate and the square has become a square. Loss of squares with the dominance and circular passage of cars through the square, the middle island has become an inaccessible space for pedestrians, and plans and plans to rehabilitate and organize the squares are often on the sidewalk of the square. They have not gone anywhere. In the meantime, the green field is a space that the street passes by and has advantages in pedestrianization compared to the common squares. Therefore, with the above problem, the purpose of this study is to identify the green field as a suitable model for creating urban pedestrian nodes. This article deals with the recognition of field green by descriptive-analytical, comparative and case studies. The results of this study show that the pattern of the green field as the street passes by it, the safety and security of pedestrians; it can be used in different scales of city, village and neighborhood. The knowledge and analysis of the green field shows that this type of field with connection from at least one side to the building blocks includes important religious, commercial, administrative-government buildings, etc. and has various species in the form-shape dimensions. Accessibility is the presence of natural elements, scale and urban / neighborhood function. This type of field with flexibility in body, use and size can meet the diverse needs of riders and infantry. Relying on the dominant building or complex of buildings, Sabzeh-e-Maidan will act as a public front and pre-space and provide a successful, desirable and memorable urban space for the citizens. Recognition of the green field shows that this type of field can be used as a flexible model in different scales, in different functions in creating public pedestrian urban spaces.

Graffiti's Spatial Contestation
type: item
description: Graffiti in India – what does it mean? The graffiti scenario in India is something that is measuring grounds. However, what exactly is happening with the diverse forms of graffiti in India? Graffiti in the West and Europe are recognised as cultural movement of their own. Does such impactful street and public art create cultural impact in India? Though research indicates the trajectory of graffiti artists is to have their art up-ended into museum and gallery spaces from streets and public spaces, the movement began in public spaces. In India there are studio spaces and galleries for Graffiti however, the public and street art of the same is rarely seen in its authenticity. The essentiality of graffiti is being transformed from a rebellious and daring self-expression within a public space to a more institutionalized, tailored and commodified essentiality of private spaces. Can this enclosed art space aid or create something of cultural impact? This paper aims to analyse tags in church street in Bangalore, Karnataka to be creating a spatial contestation, through its different types of graffiti present within its spread of 750 meters. By using Lefebvre's theory of The Production of Space, this article aims to understand the spatial relevance of Graffiti and tags in Church street, Bangalore, India. This spatial approach to understanding the graffiti and tags in church street helps in understanding the art practice better for spatial analysis exposes their essentiality.
