Disintegrating Loops of Uprooted Plastic

I’m interested in paint’s malleability. In my work, I transform the physical possibilities of paint in a literal way, using it as a tactile material to be cut apart, reassembled, or simply exposed for what it is. My paintings are labor-intensive. They are not predetermined, they meticulously evolve; crafted rather than executed. Remnant material from one painting, the result of a working process of cutting, gouging, or sanding, leads directly to the production of a new piece. In my work there is no illusion, material is meant to reiterate itself. Unlike abstract painters of the early 20th century, who hoped their work could aspire to spiritual harmony. My paintings are much more pragmatic, every day, present, and real

Evaluation des options et gestion des risques financiers par les réseaux de neurones et par les modèles à volatilité stochastique

Options evaluation and financial risk management using neural networks and stochastic volatility modelsLa thèse consiste à comparer des modèles d'évaluation d'options européennes, aussi bien au niveau de l'évaluation (Black & Scholes, réseaux de neurones, modèles à volatilité stochastique) , qu'au niveau de la gestion des risques (Black &Scholes et réseaux deneurones), en se basant sur deux bases d'options européennes, sur l'indice CAC 40, cotées sur le MONEP: la première base est une base intraday s'étalant du mois de janvier 1998 au mois de juin 1998 et la seconde est journalière s'étalant du mois de janvier1997 au mois de décembre 1999). Après traitement, ces bases sont découpées par contrats et par classes, selon la parité et la durée de vie résiduelle

Connecting Sister Rosetta Tharpe to Phoebe Bridgers: A Look at the Development of Female Singer/Guitarists From 1940-Today

Sister Rosetta Tharpe, a queer Black woman and Queen of Rock and Roll, was an innovator of gospel music and popularized the use of the electric guitar in the 1940s. Her impact on American popular music is evident when listening to artists such as Elvis Presley, Little Richard, and Chuck Berry. While her influence on the music of her famous male counterparts is undeniable and referenced in documentaries, textbooks, and films, the trail-blazing guidance she provided female vocalist/guitarists is rarely highlighted. In this presentation, Ms.Prevatte will create a musical family tree connecting Sister Rosetta Tharpe to modern-day singer/songwriter, Phoebe Bridgers, by linking multiple known female singer/guitarists including Dolly Parton and Tracy Chapman. Citing direct connections and musical examples, Prevatte will explore Tharpe\u27s musical lineage and conclude with a live performance of a piece from Bridger\u27s repertoire

Procrastinación y estrés académico en estudiantes de una universidad privada de Lima, 2021

La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo establecer la relación entre la procrastinación y el estrés académico en estudiantes de psicología de una universidad de Lima en el año 2021. La metodología utilizada es de enfoque cuantitativo, no experimental, de corte transeccional y correlacional. La población estuvo conformada por 384 estudiantes de psicología de una universidad de Lima, de 8vo, 9no y 10mo ciclo. El tipo de muestreo fue no probabilístico por conveniencia y la muestra estuvo conformada por 283 estudiantes. La técnica utilizada fue la encuesta y los instrumentos utilizados fueron: Inventario SISCO del estrés académico y la Escala de Procrastinación Académica (EPA). Se utilizó el software estadístico SPSS versión 26 para analizar los datos. Los resultados encontrados muestran que existe una correlación del rho 0,00 (p<0,05), en otras palabras, entre ambas variables existe relación altamente significativa (p<0,01), es decir, a mayor puntaje en estrés académico mayor índice de procrastinación. Asimismo, con respecto a las dimensiones del estrés (estresores, síntomas, y estrategias de afrontamiento) y la procrastinación, se obtuvo un índice de significancia del 0,00 (p<0,05); por ello, se puede afirmar que, entre cada una de las dimensiones del estrés y la procrastinación, existe relación altamente significativa.The objective of this research was to establish the relationship between procrastination and academic stress in psychology students at a university in Lima in the year 2021.

The type of sampling was non-probabilistic by convenience and the sample consisted of 283 students. The technique used was the survey and the instruments used were: SISCO Academic Stress Inventory and the Academic Procrastination Scale (EPA). SPSS version 26 statistical software was used to analyze the data. The results found show that there is a correlation of 0.00 (p<0.05), in other words, between both variables there is a highly significant relationship (p<0.01), that is, the higher the academic stress score, the higher the procrastination index. Likewise, with respect to the dimensions of stress (stressors, symptoms, and coping strategies) and procrastination, a significance index of 0.00 (p<0.05) was obtained; therefore, it can be affirmed that, between each of the dimensions of stress and procrastination, there is a highly significant relationship
