My analysis will address the following questions: What is the role of time and silence in the melancholy scenes of de Chirico’s early “metaphysical period” (1911–1918) and his articles prior to the year 1920, and how can the question of time be seen as a participant or catalyst in the phenomenon of synesthesia in de Chirico’s early works? How is it that, involuntarily, we find ourselves at the brink of synesthesia when describing de Chirico’s “enigmatic” paintings? It is symptomatic of the case that there is no description of de Chirico’s early works without reference to silence. With a conjuring trick he makes time the fifth sense. Slow time and high silence unite in his scenes, the beholder’s eye moves in the petrified, naked world, where the projective process of synethesia abounds.

Dysregulation of pH in solid tumors is a hallmark of cancer. In recent years, the role of altered pH heterogeneity in space, between benign and aggressive tissues, between individual cancer cells, and between subcellular compartments, has been steadily elucidated. Changes in temporal pH-related processes on both fast and slow time scales, including altered kinetics of bicarbonate-CO2 exchange and its effects on pH buffering and gradual, progressive changes driven by changes in metabolism, are further implicated in phenotypic changes observed in cancers. These discoveries have been driven by advances in imaging technologies. This review provides an overview of intra- and extracellular pH alterations in time and space reflected in cancer cells, as well as the available technology to study pH spatiotemporal heterogeneity.

Das Verhältnis von Verschwinden und Erscheinen wurde in der bildenden Kunst nirgends so explizit behandelt wie im Surrealismus. Exemplarisch kann dabei Das Rätsel des Orakels von Giorgio de Chirico und The Enigma of Isidore Ducasse von Man Ray herangezogen werden. Eingerahmt von einem Manifest zur Rolle des Traums wurde Man Rays Enigma bereits auf der ersten Seite der ersten Ausgabe der Zeitschrift Le révolution surréaliste abgedruckt. Wie im Beitrag gezeigt werden soll, wird die Beziehung von Verschwinden und Erscheinen im Surrealismus nicht nur visualisiert, sondern diese wird in ihrer Struktur von Anwesenheit und Abwesenheit analytisch und zugleich sinnlich seziert. </br></br>No epoch of the visual arts has treated the relation of disappearance and appearance as explicitly as surrealism. Especially Giorgio de Chirico’s The Enigma of the Oracle and Man Ray’s The Enigma of Isidore Ducasse can be used as examples. Framed by a manifesto on the role of the dream, Man Ray’s Enigma was printed on the first page of the first issue of the journal La révolution surréaliste. In this paper I show how in surrealism, the relation of disappearance and appearance is not only visualized, but dissected in an analytical and at the same time sensual way.

Ionic displacement modifying the electric field in the device is found as most likely reason for the hysteresis which is examined by separating fast and slow processes and comparing devices with and without blocking layer.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
