L’odeur de l’axé by Arnaud Halloy

“…I suggest three theoretical claims: the hypothesis of the metonymic function of smells (Howes 1987), i.e. that the very nature of smell—their liminal, intangible and evolutive character, as well as their privileged link to emotions—redouble at the experiential level the rituals’ symbolic function of transformation; the hypothesis of an “olfactive evaluative conditioning” (Zucco 2013) at the heart of the metonymic function of smells; the existence of olfactive practices and “styles,” which are constitutive elements of collective identities in Afro-Brazilian religions.…”

Unstable Modes and Order Parameters of Bistable Signaling Pathways at Saddle-Node Bifurcations: A Theoretical Study Based on Synergetics by Till D. Frank

“…In the present study, properties of mathematical models of bistable signaling pathways are examined from the perspective of synergetics, a theory of self-organization and pattern formation founded by Hermann Haken. At the heart of synergetics is the concept of so-called unstable modes or order parameters that determine the behavior of systems as a whole close to bifurcation points. …”
