This essay illustrates, by means of an analysis of the film, Wag the Dog the relationship betweenmedial hybridization and cognitive “strange loops”. As defined by Douglas Hofstadter, the‘strange loop’ is a concept rooted in the subjectivity of individual perception that integratesdifferent levels of abstraction. Applied to “intermedial” practice it provides a heuristic platformf...
متن کاملWag the dog: skepticism on seizure alert canines.
Some dogs can signal human seizure activity. Seizure response dogs (SRDs) recognize and respond to ongoing seizure and postseizure compromise, whereas seizure alert dogs (SADs) may warn of impending seizure.1-5 Canine companions may have an additional stress reduction benefit that can lead to decreased seizure frequency.5 In this report we describe a dog that warns of psychogenic nonepileptifor...
متن کاملAlteration in Neuregulin 1/ERbB4 in Absence Epilepsy: Regulatory Effect on TRPV1 Expression
Introduction: The footprint of Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) / ERbB4 in the pathophysiology of some neurological disorders and TRPV1 regulation has been indicated. The alterations in NRG1 and ErbB4 as well as the TRPV1 signaling pathway were investigated during the development of absence epilepsy in the genetic animal model of absence epilepsy. Methods: Male WAG/Rij and Wistar rats were divided into fou...
متن کاملCritical Parameters Affecting Water Alternating Gas (WAG) Injection in an Iranian Fractured Reservoir
Microscopic oil displacement of water flooding and sweep efficiency of continuous gas injection could be improved by water alternating gas (WAG) injection. The WAG injection process aims to squeeze more oil out of the reservoirs; in this method, water and gas are alternatively injected into the reservoir. Also, availability of hydrocarbon or CO2 gases in the field makes it attractive for gas-ba...
متن کاملExperimental Study and Modeling of Gravity Drainage during WAG Process in Fractured Carbonate Rocks
The experimental study and modeling of gravity drainage during Water Alternative Gas Injection, WAG process, in carbonate rock for one of the Iranian off-shore reservoir at lab-scale were carried out. The mechanism of gravity drainage during the WAG process, and its contribution to the oil recovery in the fract...
