The Palace Project

This paper seeks definitions aiding design methodologies for evolving virtual morphologies, by the examination of one such morphology in analogue architecture: The Topkapı Palace. 1 Background The interest that instigated this study lies in a project developed earlier this year, entitled “The Bridge Project” [01], a virtual 3D structure of free associative content derived from the internet, one...

Pompeii in the Crystal Palace: Comparing Victorian and Modern Virtual, Immersive Environments

This JISC funded project involves building a virtual 3D model in Second Life, a multiuser online world, of the Pompeian Court, a life-size model of a Pompeian house built in the Crystal Palace in 1854. We wish to examine how the social and educational experiences and reconstructive possibilities offered by the virtual environment compare with those of the original Court. By examining these them...

An Excursion to the Kolmogorov Random Strings

We study the set of resource bounded Kolmogorov random strings: R t = fx j K t (x) jxjg for t a time constructible function such that t(n) 2 n 2 and t(n) 2 2 n O(1). We show that the class of sets that Tur-ing reduce to R t has measure 0 in EXP with respect to the resource-bounded measure introduced by 17]. From this we conclude that R t is not Turing-complete for EXP. This contrasts the resour...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
