Autor: Almeida, Paulo Oliveira Freire
Resumo: O trabalho de síntese “Imagem Conceptual e Processo Criativo” foi apresentado em 2002 no ambito das Provas de Aptidão Científica e Pedagógica e foi elaborado como investigação
decorrente da minha prática pedagógica na disciplina de Desenho de Arquitectura, do 2º ano da
Licenciatura em Arquitectura da Universidade do Minho, e tem como objectivo a consolidação de
conteúdos programáticos do exercício Concepção, integrado na fase Desenho e Projecto. Este trabalho de síntese pretende aprofundar e fundamentar os conteúdos teóricos do exercício “Concepção” integrado na fase
“Desenho e Projecto”, da Disciplina de Desenho de Arquitectura do segundo ano da licenciatura em Arquitectura da Universidade do Minho de 1998 a 2005, sob a coordenação do Professor Joaquim Pinto Vieira, também responsável pela orientação deste trabalho.
Na referida fase, o desenvolvimento do processo gráfico durante a realização de um projecto, é dividido em três etapas: Concepção: fase inicial onde se consideram os conceitos e ideias fundamentais do projecto. Formalização: onde se investigam e desenvolvem as diversas, hipóteses formais.
Ilustração: onde se apresenta o resultado e conclusão do projecto
Descrição: Trabalho de síntese apresentado nas provas de aptidão científica e pedagógica, na àrea disciplinar de desenho, 2002. Orientação, professor Doutor Joaquim Pinto Vieira

Título: Yoga and Qigong for health: two sides of the same coin?
Autor: Boaventura, Paula; Jaconiano, Sónia Isabel Rodrigues Cabral Moraes; Ribeiro, Filipa
Resumo: Yoga and qigong are ancient mind–body practices used in the East for thousands of years to promote inner peace and mental clarity. Both share breathing techniques and slow movements and are being used as alternative/complementary approaches to the management of disease, especially chronic problems with no effective conventional treatments. However, information comparing the health benefits of both approaches is scarce, and the choice between yoga or qigong practice may only depend on patients’ preferences or practice availability. The aim of the present paper was to overview yoga and qigong use for health benefits under different pathological conditions. Yoga and qigong seem to have similar effects, which might be expected, since both are similar mind–body approaches with the same concept of vital life-force energy and the practice of meditative movements. Problematic research issues within the literature on yoga and qigong are the small sample sizes, use of different styles, significant variance in practice duration and frequency, short duration of intervention effects, and the usage of a non-active control group, thus emphasizing the need for further high-quality randomized trials. Studies comparing yoga and qigong are warranted in order to assess differences/similarities between the two approaches for health benefits.

Resumo: FURNISH is organizing an open call to select 4 teams throughout Europe which will digitally fabricate and deploy urban elements for the purpose of adapting temporary public spaces to meet the new challenges and opportunities presented by the COVID-19 crisis. FURNISH aims to merge the challenge of gaining more public space through ‘tactical urbanism’, which can reconfigure a street to expand the area for pedestrians and leisure, with local digital manufacturing. The call is open to Fab Labs, research groups, designers or makers able to produce rapid solutions to the urgent spatial problems and opportunities posed by the novel coronavirus. Interested teams must submit their qualifications between September 10 and September 25, along with a declaration of responsibility for testing their designs with end users and (not compulsory but favourable) evidence of having sought a letter of support from a local institution expressing interest in hosting the pilot installation (e.g. a municipality, university campus, cultural centre, etc.). The objective is to develop the designs and prototypes in collaborative workshops featuring all the selected FURNISH teams, therefore it is not necessary to have a design prepared to apply. Pilot installations will be installed and tested by December. Each selected team will receive up to 10.000€ to fund the fabrication and implementation of their prototypes. All designs developed under the FURNISH project will be documented in an open-source format, enabling replication anywhere in the world. The AEIOU (Amplification Element for Interactive Open Urbanism) prototypes are movable autonomous spatial devices that allow to amplify sound due their megaphone shape in diverse urban contexts. The design was thought to amplify the sound of drums, as they are used at the Pinheiro parade, in the city of Guimarães. The prototypes design was supported by parametric modelling tools, namely for the design and discretisation of the curved surfaces of the “megaphones”. The structure of the prototypes and surfaces are produced by CNC milling process, with a structure defined by a contouring system, built in birch plywood (30 mm thickness). The AEIOU prototype intends to generate new ways of expressing a traditional event, by means of an interaction that keeps social distancing but simultaneously reaches the greatest number of people, spreading the positive feeling that is present in such a traditional celebration.

Resumo: Workshop realizado no âmbito do The “Right to Design” states that the benefits of well-designed products - being it functional, emotional or any other - should be available to anyone. We are calling talented, curious designers for a “hands on” workshop, to address two specific challenges and discuss some contradictions that emerge from labeling designs.
