Extrait de : Conférence des masters, le 24 mars 2017. Université des Antilles
Description : À présent doctorant en Art et Musicologie, Marvin Fabien présente lors de cette conférence ses recherches de master portant sur le thème suivant « l'émergence des nouveaux médias dans les pratiques artistiques de la Caraïbe insulaire ». Il explique qu'en interrogeant l'évolution actuelle des arts plastiques dans la Caraïbe insulaire, il a constaté que l'émergence des nouveaux médias a été initiée par un choc technologique. L'intérêt pour lui est de s'interroger sur la présence des nouveaux médias dans les pratiques artistiques caribéennes, et d'étudier la façon dont les nouveaux médias questionnent les genres artistiques déjà existants. Il présente ensuite quelques notions et concepts importants, tels que la Porosité et la Transgression qu'il aborde pour éclaircir ses recherches. Enfin il explique que cette recherche l'a également conduit vers une autre perspective autour du concept de l'Open Source.

Résumé : Contract laborers were imported from China to Cuba in the nineteenth century to alleviate the severe labor shortage caused by the expansion of the sugar estates. Between 1847 and 1878, approximately 145,000 Chinese arrived in the island. As they were expected to work under conditions similar to slavery, the death rate was high. By 1899, the population was reduced to 14,863. The artist, Frederic Remington, well-known for his portrayal of the Old West, began his career at Harper's Weekly. On assignment as artist and correspondent in Cuba during the 1890s, he reported on conditions on the island, as well as the Spanish American War in 1898.

Résumé : International audience
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Climate change poses unprecedented challenges, ranging from global and local policy challenges to personal and social action. Heat-related deaths are largely preventable, but interventions for the most vulnerable populations need improvement. Therefore, the prior identification of high risk areas at the community level is required to better inform planning and prevention. We aimed to demonstrate a simple and flexible conceptual framework relying upon satellite thermal data and other digital data with the goal of easily reproducing this framework in a variety of urban configurations. RESULTS: The study area encompasses Rennes, a medium-sized French city. A Landsat ETM + image (60 m resolution) acquired during a localized heatwave (June 2001) was used to estimate land surface temperature (LST) and derive a hazard index. A land-use regression model was performed to predict the LST. Vulnerability was assessed through census data describing four dimensions (socio-economic status, extreme age, population density and building obsolescence). Then, hazard and vulnerability indices were combined to deliver a heatwave health risk index. The LST patterns were quite heterogeneous, reflecting the land cover mosaic inside the city boundary, with hotspots of elevated temperature mainly observed in the city center. A spatial error regression model was highly predictive of the spatial variation in the LST (R2 = 0.87) and was parsimonious. Three land cover descriptors (NDVI, vegetation and water fractions) were negatively linked with the LST. A sensitivity analysis (based on an image acquired on July 2000) yielded similar results. Southern areas exhibited the most vulnerability, although some pockets of higher vulnerability were observed northeast and west of the city. The heatwave health risk map showed evidence of infra-city spatial clustering, with the highest risks observed in a north--south central band. Another sensitivity analysis gave a very high correlation between 2000 and 2001 risk indices (r = 0.98, p < 10-12). CONCLUSIONS: Building on previous work, we developed a reproducible method that can provide guidance for local planners in developing more efficient climate impact adaptations. We recommend, however, using the health risk index together with hazard and vulnerability indices to implement tailored programs because exposure to heat and vulnerability do not require the same prevention strategies.

Résumé : International audience
The digital world authentic parallel organisation which deeply transforms the classical art organisation held by institutions, galleries, and collectors and that, mainly in the field of contempory art. Through a series of interviews, it reveals a lack of knowledge of this creative and collective energy and a protective reaction against these self appointed experts. The case of the photographer Alain Laboile whose recent fame comes out social network permits to better understand the resistance from official circles. We can say consequently that they resist to any legitimation witch ignore them.
C’est une véritable organisation parallèle des internautes qui se met en place et qui change en profondeur les instances de légitimation traditionnelles du milieu de l’art contemporain sans que les élites ne s’en aperçoivent véritablement ou ne consentent à l'accepter. Les entretiens que nous avons menés auprès des institutions, des galeristes et des collectionneurs, ont mis en évidence une méconnaissance de cette énergie créatrice et collective et une réaction de protection contre ces intrus d’une expertise autodidacte. Le cas du photographe Alain Laboile, dont la notoriété soudaine est née des réseaux sociaux, permet de mieux cerner les résistances des circuits officiels à une légitimation qui les contourne.
