Blue Yodo Waltz

1 scroll. Rivers are the source of all development, and civilizations are made up of individuals. The original of this scroll was a collage on a QRS player piano roll of Blue Danube Waltz (Strauss) which I happened to find at an antique shop. When I lived in Osaka, I took pictures of ordinary local people while walking along the city\u27s iconic Yodo river all the way to the bay as a collection of slice-of-life scenes of people in the limited area and time that I could experience at first hand, and laid them on the stream of the elegant waltz. Even though Japanese society is highly homogeneous and (she) tends to avoid making outstanding individuals, Osakans steadily carry down its unique culture just as modern European culture had been passed down in the people around Danube river --Artist\u27s statement, 23 Sandy Gallery website. Issued in a box of ajio washi, persimmon dyed Kurotani washi, and Skivertex Nuba over boards. Scroll is wrapped in a silk cloth and laid into an inner drawer, which slides into the outer boxhttps://digitalcommons.risd.edu/specialcollections_artistsbooks/1148/thumbnail.jp

Indigenous Antinuclear Literary Resistance: Jim Northrup’s Satire and Anishinaabe Trans/nationalism

“Indigenous Antinuclear Literary Resistance: Jim Northrup’s Satire and Anishinaabe Trans/nationalism” examines the way Jim Northrup (1943–2016), an Anishinaabe writer from the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa in northern Minnesota, engages Anishinaabe trans/nationalism as he combats nuclear colonialism in his satirical columns. The fundamental nature of Anishinaabe trans/nationalism, described by Joseph Bauerkemper and Heidi Kiiwetinepinesiik Stark in “Trans/National Terrain of Anishinaabe Law and Diplomacy,” forms the basis of Northrup’s resistance to nuclear colonialism as he critiques the nuclear power plant and radioactive waste threatening the Mdewakanton Dakota residents of the Prairie Island Indian Community. He adds another layer to the politics of Indigenous trans/nationalism when he ridicules plans to send the radioactive waste from Prairie Island to be stored on the land of other Indigenous nations such as the Western Shoshone and Mescalero Apache. On another level, by emphasizing the bonds between Anishinaabe people in the United States and Canada, Northrup implies that Anishinaabe nationhood precedes the borders of nation states, defying the ideology of “transnational” in a conventional sense. With Indigenous trans/nationalism at the center of its argument, this essay considers Northrup’s use of satire and humor as an atomic age strategy to manifest Anishinaabe nationhood as well as to establish transnational Indigenous alliances to combat nuclear colonialism. Northrup situates his antinuclear opposition as part of an enduring multilateral Indigenous resistance to settler colonialism, and, in so doing, he emphasizes the importance of exercising treaty rights and insisting on the inherent sovereignty of the Anishinaabe people

Post-apocalyptic vision and survivance: Nuclear writings in Native America and Japan

Post Apocalyptic Vision and Survivance: Nuclear Writings in Native American and Japan examines the way nuclear issues are addressed by American Indian and Japanese Atomic Bomb writers. At the core of my argument lies the fact that although American nuclear literature and criticism have developed during the Cold War, until recently the voices of actual witnesses to the devastating effects of nuclear weapons and their production have often been dismissed or unacknowledged. Among such witnesses are indigenous people in the Southwest whose lands have been exploited for uranium mining and milling, nuclear testing, and nuclear waste disposal. I particularly focus on Simon J. Ortiz (an Acoma Pueblo poet/short story writer/essayist), Leslie Marmon Silko (a Laguna Pueblo novelist), Marilou Awiakta (a writer of Cherokee heritage living in Appalachia), and Gerald Vizenor (an Anishinabe writer from Northern Minnesota) who address nuclear colonization, cross-cultural nuclear destruction, alternative thinking about the atom, or the ideology of nuclear peace in their fiction, poetry, and prose. I argue that these writers subvert and deconstruct the predominant apocalyptic nuclear discourse through their tribal, global, and ecological perspectives. Like its counterpart in America, Atomic Bomb literature in Japan has developed a complex and rich discourse. My dissertation, therefore, overviews Japanese Atomic Bomb literature as well, particularly discussing the colonial and global significance of works such as Masuji Ibuse\u27s Black Rain , Makoto Oda\u27s Hiroshima, and Kyoko Hayashi\u27s The Site of Rituals

Evaluation of Taste Properties of Commercially Available Salts

This study examined commercially available salts\u27taste properties. The salts were used in preparation of four dishes: asazuke of cucumber, asazuke of Chinese cabbage, clear soup, and green soybean rice. The respective tastes of the salts in those prepared foods differed from those of the salts alone. We evaluated the parameters: saltiness, mildness, unpleasantness, and palatability. Differences of the salt samples affected the perception of saltiness. Results of taste sensor analyses showed that monosodium glutamate (MSG) affected response patterns toward the salt solution
