This paper presents a non-intrusive system that gives the illusion of a 3D immersive and interactive environment with 2D projectors. The user does not need to wear glasses, nor to watch a (limited) screen. The virtual world is all around him, drawn on the floor. As the user is himself immersed in the virtual world, there is no need for a proxy like an avatar; he can move inside the virtual environment freely. Moreover, the I-see-3D system allows a user to manipulate virtual objects with his own body, making interactions with the virtual world very intuitive. Giving the illusion of 3D requires to render images in such a way that the deformation of the image projected on the floor is taken into account, as well as the position of the user’s “eye” in its virtual world. The resulting projection is neither perspective nor orthographic. Nevertheless, we describe how this can be implemented with the standard OpenGL pipeline, without any shader. Our experiments demonstrate that our system i...

This paper investigates alternative methods of teaching design studies in a school of design that still largely follows a traditional apprenticeship practice-based programme. It looks at sustainable and student-centred design educational methods of teaching and learning that are underpinned by social constructivism, soft systems thinking and second-order cybernetics. In the first two sections I construct an imaginary dialogue to demonstrate some of the difficulties in teaching design, especially theory, followed by a remodelling of this teaching scenario using Stafford Beer’s muddy box regulatory system as a learning device. The sections that follow deal with conversation theory, story telling and projection, the way we construct and construe virtual frames of existence, while the last section deals with how we can imagine ourselves as autopoietic systems that have the capability of communicative interaction.

This inquiry researches the until this day unexplored subject of Western esoteric scrying practices within the context of Media Studies. This study is the first of its kind; an exciting combination of the highly neglected field of Western esotericism and the Media Archaeological methodology as a means to gain insight in the Western esoteric dimension of media culture. It uses John Dee and Edward Kelly's scrying practices as a starting point to explore the past and present of scrying and the past and present of screens and cinema. Thereby it provides new frameworks to historically understand screens and cinema (including 3D technology and virtual reality) as a continuation of scrying practices and consequently the possibility to understand digital screens and cinema and analog cinema within one framework. It seems the human desire to transcend the limitations of one's physical and spatiotemporal existence which underlie the practice of scrying (gnosis) is also recognizable in the context of screens and cinema. This inquiry provides concrete evidence of a direct influence of scrying practices (including ancient Greek scrying institutions) on media technology and materiality and the way it functions in regard to the user/spectator. It offers an insight in the reasons why people have real bodily (physical and emotional) responses to fiction, why they enjoy fiction and why they can temporally relate to it though knowing it is not real.

In the history of philosophy as well as in most recent discussions, empathy is held to be a key concept that enables a basic
understanding of the other while at the same time acting as the foundation of our moral emotionality. In this paper I want to
show why empathy is the wrong candidate for both of these tasks. If we understand empathy as projection, i.e. a process of
imaginary self-transposition, we are bound to presuppose a fully established interpersonal sphere. If we consider empathy
as synonymous with compassion it is highly questionable if we ever reach the other person in his or her otherness. Max
Scheler and other early phenomenologists offer very fruitful approaches to both problems without resorting to empathy. I
will present some of their thoughts and focus especially on Scheler’s claim about the connection between the experience of
the real other and the intentionality of compassion.

Cette présentation émerge d'une recherche sur la projection des jeunes québécois(e)s dans l'avenir. Elle se concentrera sur 3 axes: la médiation entre le chercheur et la personne répondante lors de l'entrevue, notamment en traitant de la composition et de l'ordre des questions; entre le présent individuel et les valeurs de la personne qui orientent ses attentes et sa projection; entre morale et connaissances historiques individuelles qui préside à la catégorisation du collectif, étaye les lieux de tensions dans la société, et oriente l'anticipation du devenir collectif.

La multiplication des crises rend imprévisible l'avenir du monde alors que la lourdeur du modèle productif entrave les possibilités d'imaginer un monde alternatif. Au plan individuel, le nombre de trajectoires de vie possible a explosé. À travers les concepts d'individualisation, de régime d'historicité et de temporalités sociales, ce mémoire étudie la projection individuelle des jeunes québécois(es) dans le futur individuel et l'avenir collectif. Pour la cerner, j'ai réalisé quinze entrevues qualitatives auprès de quinze jeunes de profils socio-économiques variés.
À l'analyse apparaît une grande variation dans la longueur des projections des jeunes qui peuvent aller d'un an à une vie entière. De même, ce qui constitue le cœur de la projection varie considérablement : équilibre entre domaines de la vie ; expériences de vie ; famille ; engagement social ; travail. Les répondant(e)s partagent un optimisme généralisé quant à leur futur personnel et considèrent avoir toutes les cartes en main pour se forger un futur à leur convenance même si deux tiers n'ont pas de plan de vie arrêté.
L'horizon de la projection dans l'avenir collectif ne dépasse pas la vie humaine. Certain(e)s jeunes identifient des dimensions clefs – environnement, économie, conflit armé – qui auront un impact sur les autres facettes de l'avenir tandis que d'autres les réfléchissent en silo et font abstraction de leur interdépendance : l'utilisation incivile du cellulaire étant aussi préoccupante que la corruption ou que les changements climatiques. Deux tiers des jeunes s'attendent à une détérioration du monde, mais considèrent les menaces collectives à venir comme trop distantes spatialement et temporellement pour s'en inquiéter outre mesure.
Dans la société individualiste, la promotion à l'autoréalisation est source d'angoisse pour les jeunes qui doivent renoncer à une multitude de potentialités en choisissant un programme d'étude ou un emploi. L'optimisme devant le futur personnel et l'impression d'une identité fixe dans un monde en mouvement résultent d'un sentiment de séparation du monde qui se renforce dans la société individualiste. Cette permanence semble aussi appuyer la thèse du présentisme de François Hartog (2012) soit la propension de la société contemporaine à donner plus d'importance au présent qu'au passé ou au futur.

A survey among climate scientists is used to examine the terminology concerning two key concepts in climate science, namely “predictions” and “projections”, as used among climate scientists. The survey data suggests that the IPCC terminology is not adopted, or only loosely adopted, by a significant minority of scientists. Approximately 29% of the sample associate probable developments with projections and approximately 20% of respondents associate possible developments with predictions.

Abstract: An accurate understanding of the spatial relationships between the deep and superficial structures of the head is essential for anthropological methods concerned with the comparison of faces to skulls (superimposition) or the prediction of faces from them (facial approximation). However, differences of opinion exist concerning: (i) the position of the eyeball in planes other than the anteroposterior plane and (ii) the canthi positions relative to the bony orbital margins. This study attempts to clarify the above relationships by dissection of a small sample of adult human cadavers (N = 4, mean age = 83 years, s = 12 years). The most notable finding was that the eyeballs were not centrally positioned within the orbits as the more recent craniofacial identification literature expounds. Rather, the eyeballs were consistently positioned closer to the orbital roof and lateral orbital wall (by 1–2 mm on average); a finding consistent with the earlier anatomical literature. While these estimation errors are small ipsilaterally, several factors make them meaningful: (i) the orbital region is heavily used for facial recognition; (ii) the width error is doubled because the eyes are bilateral structures; (iii) the eyes are sometimes used to predict/assess other soft tissue facial structures; and (iv) the net error in facial approximation rapidly accumulates with the subsequent prediction of each independent facial feature. While the small sample size of this study limits conclusive generalizations, the new data presented here nonetheless have immediate application to craniofacial identification practice because the results are evidence based. In contrast, metric data have never been published to support the use of the central positioning guideline. Clearly, this study warrants further quantification of the eyeball position in larger samples and preferably of younger individuals.

Alfredo Pereira Jr.’s target essay “The Projective Theory of Consciousness” is an experimental statement, drawing on many diverse sources, exploring how consciousness might be produced by a projective mechanism that results both in private selves and an experienced world. Unfortunately, pulling together so many unrelated sources and methods means none gets full attention. Furthermore, it seems to me that the uncomfortable breadth of this paper unnecessarily complicates his project; in fact it may hide what it seeks to reveal. If this conglomeration of diverse sources and methods were compared to trees, the reader may feel like the explorer who cannot see the forest for the trees. Then again, it may be the author who is so preoccupied with foreground figures that the everpresent background is ultimately obscured.
