Frida Kahlo, La chair ouverte by Julie Crenn

“…She expressed women’s suffer of loosing child, desperate women, different kind of wounds (wounds of body and wounds of sentiments) through several self-portraits. She did not hesitate to draw from her personal experience to deal with subjects considered as taboos in the years 1930-1950, what makes of her a premature feminist artist symbolizing the American slogan lauded at the beginning of 1970’s « The personal is political ».…”

Construction of Internet of things customer data platform based on OLAP technology by Yue GUO, Yue LONG, Xun ZHANG, Yang QU

“…At this stage,the Internet of things (IoT) customer business is developing rapidly.The management problems of weak customer operation ability have gradually exposed in the IoT industry,resulting in the low AP (analytical processing) value of customers,the low profitability and high operating cost.Therefore,it is urgent to enhance the massive data analysis capabilities of the IoT to provide data guidance for business development.To improve the customer value,big data technology,multi-dimensional analysis technology and massive query technology were used to make portraits of IoT enterprise customers,and realize the construction of the customer data platform with refined and efficient operation services.It was introduced how to construct the data operation platform from the aspect of technology implementation.…”

Sexualitet, samtycke och relationer i grundskolans bildämne by Elisabeth Lisa Öhman

“…More specifically, it explores how phenomena such as identity, sexuality, and gender are material—discursively produced during 15–16-year-old students’ work with photographic portraits in Arts education in Grade 9. Using Karen Barad’s concept of space-time-matter in the analysis shows how subject-didactic opportunities and challenges reformulate the ideas about what sexuality education can be. …”

'Kingsman', Not 'My Fair Lady:' Dialect and Stereotype in the Films 'The Secret Service' and 'The Golden Circle' by Carla Soares

“…This article focuses on the portrayal of lead and supporting actors in the two instalments of Kingsman, The Secret Service and The Golden Circle (2014 and 2017 respectively, both by Mathew Vaughn), departing, in the first case, from a Pygmalionesque transformative idea and, centered in Harry/Galahad’s (Colin Firth) motto “Manners Maketh Man” to partially portray social context in Britain and extending its “tongue-in-cheek” critique to the American Southern culture in The Golden Circle, in purposely biased portraits. The emphasis is on how dialect, particularly accent, aid in the construction or deconstruction of stereotypes, both in British and North American contexts, and how they reflect particular views of the world(s).…”

Bifurcation Analysis and Chaos Control in a Discrete-Time Parasite-Host Model by Xueli Chen, Lishun Ren

“…The numerical simulations not only illustrate the consistence with the theoretical analysis, but also exhibit other complex dynamical behaviors, such as bifurcation diagrams, Maximum Lyapunov exponents, and phase portraits. More specifically, when the integral step size is chosen as a bifurcation parameter, this paper presents the finding of period orbits, attracting invariant cycles and chaotic attractors of the discrete-time parasite-host system. …”
