FEDORA. Excerpts from essays, transcript of interviews and group discussions on students' future perception. Part 3: Interviews, Finland.
<p>Finnish-language dataset. Related to a research article that is awaiting acceptance for publication: <em>Future, technology and agency: Students’ experiences from a course on futures thinking and quantum computing</em>.</p> <p>As per ethical concerns and participants' consent, the dataset is given in a fully anonymised form. Instead of students' interviews (the context of which is given in the article). In a nutshell, 21 upper-secondary school students were interviewed in 2018 regarding their experiences on taking an experimental science course that combined ideas from futures thinking and quantum computing. The present dataset contains all 245 transcribed passages from 21 student interviews that were initially marked as relevant to the research goals (i.e. how students saw their conceptions change over the course). Additionally, for each passage the final coding that was used in the analysis for the research paper is shown. The "number-letter codes" were used as shorthands; the full names of the codes correspond closely with the final, English-language codes in the paper.</p> <p>To preserve full anonymity, students are not identified by any marker or pseudonym here; rather, the passages are given alphabetically. The start and end of passages has not been checked for additional or missing first and last characters. Please also note that the character > marks change of speaker. Identifying the interviewer and interviewee should be straighforward based on the context.</p> <p>Please contact the corresponding author for more information.</p> <p> </p> <p>--</p> <p> </p> <p><a href="https://zenodo.org/communities/futuresthinking?page=1&size=20">FEDORA Project</a> README:</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>README</strong></p> <p><strong>Data Set Title:</strong> “FEDORA.

a message from Jiří (video essay)
<p>The beginning of cinema, the materiality of film, and today's audio messaging.<br> The message from scholar and film theorist Jiří Anger on his research on the Czech film pioneer Jan Kříženecký made me see the things he is obsessed with. Visual research guided by a colleague's voice.</p>
Practices of Viewing II: Pause (video essay)
<p>Pause is just a click away. The fact that on our devices we can pause a film whenever we want makes us forget how unsettling this actually is. Thinking about how dangerous it once has been when the images come to halt should help us to see this practice as subversive. The ability to pause doesn't give us more control, but exposes both us and the medium to what we cannot fathom.</p> <p>Video can also be viewed under: https://transferences.org/videoessays/practices-of-viewing-pause/</p>

The 1-codes are omitted. While these are unrelated to the article of this analysis, the 2B-2D codes correspond to the categories in the article.

Beyond the Human: Exploring Non-Spatial Becomings in Warhammer 40k (video essay)
<p>Video essay created to compensate for a cancelled talk at the Warhammer Conference, Heidelberg and online, September 27-28, 2024</p> <p>It explores the profound philosophical implications of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, proposing a radical reconceptualization of ontology. Through an examination of space, time, consciousness, and the mind-matter relationship in 40k, it challenges traditional philosophical frameworks and introduces the concept of "un-human becomings."</p> <p>The presentation delves into how Warhammer 40k's unique elements—such as the Warp, Necrons, and the Tyranid Hivemind—push beyond conventional understandings of existence, offering new perspectives on reality that transcend human-centric philosophies. It suggests that these fictional concepts may serve as a prescient glimpse into future philosophical paradigms.<br><br>-------<br><br></p> <p>Sources for the images and videos will be added in October 2024. </p> <p>Voice-over by "Killian, The Vampire" created with typecast.ai.<br>Music by Guilherme Bernardes William from Pixabay.</p>
The Apocalypse Within: Portraying Psychological Resilience and Anti-Fragility Through Games Like Hellblade (video essay)
<p>Video essay on the idea of "inner apocalypses" as exemplified by the game Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, presented during the Future and Reality of Gaming (FROG) Conference, Vienna, October 11–13, 2024.</p> <p>This presentation explores the concept of apocalyptic individuality in video games, with a particular focus on Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. It examines how games are redefining apocalyptic narratives by shifting from external, world-ending scenarios to deeply personal, psyche-shattering experiences. The talk delves into the portrayal of mental health in gaming, the concept of inner apocalypses, and how interactive media can create shared experiences of personal crises. It discusses the potential of games to foster empathy and understanding of complex psychological states. The presentation concludes by reflecting on how this new approach to apocalyptic narratives in gaming might influence our broader understanding of individual struggle, collective empathy, and the nature of reality itself.</p> <p>-------</p> <p>Voice-over by "Anabelle, The Ghost" created with typecast.ai.<br>Music by Guilherme Bernardes William from Pixabay.</p>

Practices of Viewing I: F.FWD (video essay)
<p>A research video essay, for study purposes only.</p> <p>Fast forwarding – nothing is as despised and as omnipresent among those in love with cinema. But what if we consider the speeding up of film as a reflexive practice that connects contemporary media consumption with the experimental beginnings of cinema before standardization. Instead of making our viewing quicker the acceleration of moving images can make them more complex, revealing what was always at their center but invisible to human perception.</p> <p> </p>

The Role and Risks of Essay Writing Services in Academic Pursuits
<p>In contemporary academia, the proliferation of online essay writing services such as Essayservice.com has sparked debates regarding their ethical implications and academic integrity. While these platforms offer assistance to students overwhelmed with academic tasks, their usage raises concerns about plagiarism and the erosion of genuine learning.</p> <p>Essay writing services like <a title="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/honest-essayservicecom-review-what-i-supposed-find-sana-a-kroh-ikyyc" href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/honest-essayservicecom-review-what-i-supposed-find-sana-a-kroh-ikyyc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Essayservice.com</a> provide customized essays, research papers, and other academic assignments for a fee. They promise original content, timely delivery, and confidentiality. However, students must be cautious about the potential risks associated with their utilization.</p> <p>One significant concern is the ethical dilemma of submitting work that is not one's own. Using these services could lead to academic dishonesty and undermine the purpose of education, which is to foster critical thinking and intellectual growth. Moreover, there's a risk of getting caught for plagiarism, which can result in severe consequences, including expulsion from educational institutions.</p> <p>Furthermore, reliance on essay writing services deprives students of the opportunity to develop essential skills such as research, writing, and critical analysis. Academic success should not be measured solely by grades but also by the knowledge and skills gained through the learning process.</p> <p>Despite the allure of convenience, students should prioritize academic integrity and personal growth over shortcuts offered by essay writing services. Instead of outsourcing their assignments, they should seek support from professors, academic advisors, and writing centers to enhance their skills and overcome academic challenges legitimately.</p> <p>In conclusion, while essay writing services like Essayservice.com offer a quick fix to academic pressures, their usage comes with ethical and academic risks. Students must weigh these considerations carefully and make informed decisions that prioritize their long-term academic and personal development.</p>
music, crystal, memory (video essay)
<p>In Wong Kar-Wai's 2046 the use of music from other sources, from other films, becomes an additional layer to its multi-layered images and narrative. </p> <p>By musical cue the film gets into an intimate conversation with other films. The themes, topics, and obsessions of one melt and merge with the other. And one director at the height of his career touches the other who makes his final film. </p> <p>Time is folded into two. Sound and image crystallise.</p>

Practices of Viewing III: Muted (video essay)
<p>"Sound cinema has invented silence"<br> (Robert Bresson) </p> <p>On Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter the standard setting for videos is "mute". More than 120 years after its invention silent cinema has become the default mode.<br> Today's practice is supposed to make video consumption smoother. But it could also make us think about the frightening power silence could only attain with the advent of cinematic sound. In muting we might hear something far more unsettling than what words and images can express.</p>
