    O lado surpreendente da queda: minha experiência com o contato improvisação
    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2020-02-17) Itavo, Camila Vinhas; Abdala Junior, Roberto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7014946989727038; Vilela, Ana Lucia; Reinato, Eduardo José; Camargo, Robson Corrêa de; Abdala Junior, Roberto
    Contact Improvisation is analyzed from the perspective of cultural performances as a unique form of contemporary dance that emphasizes the surprising side of falling, inspired in the words of writer, anthropologist and dancer Cynthia Jean Novack (1947-1996) for whom contact improvisation “emphasizes the wildness and awkwardness of falling ”(NOVACK, 1990, p.151). The ethnographic description of this dance and its dialogical essence are presented as forms of social self-reflexivity, through the narrative, in a funneling movement of participant observation, from macro to microcosm, starting from what is given in the world to the person who writes this analysis, in search for the understanding of the relationship between the experiences provided by this performance and the multiplicity of meanings that refer to it that make it cultural performances. From what is given in the world, two testimonies available online in audiovisuals with the creator of this performance (1972), Steve Paxton, one from Juniata College, USA, in the 36th anniversary of contact improvisation, and another from the Dancing Museum, France. These two narratives are taken as sources of the ethnographic description which highlight essential performance characteristics and motivational issues which generated this dance movement. In the second chapter, the narratives which underpin the funneling of the ethnographic description are some of the writings of Steve Paxton, published by Contact Quarterly’s Contact Improvisation Sourcebook (1997), a special historical collection of this dance journal launched in 1975 as a space for reflection, debate and circulation of movement studies and experiences resulting from the performance. Along with these writings, aspects of the history of contact improvisation and the Small Dance, presented as a preparation technique for the movement, as the warming up of the perception for the dance of contact improvisation. The third chapter presents the contact improvisation class as a performance and focuses on participant observation, including my experience as a dancer, contactor, dance and contact improvisation teacher as an object of reflection on the performance load of possible transformation and transportation (Schechner, 2011) available in the classroom and at the jam sessions.

    Simulações históricas e civilizações digitais: representações do tempo histórico em “Sid Meier’s Civilization”
    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2023-04-27) Silva, Alex Alvarez; Abdala Junior, Roberto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7014946989727038; Abdala Junior, Roberto; Cerri, Luis Fernando; Jongbloed, Enrique Uribe; Teixeira, Rafael Saddi; Christino, Daniel
    This research addresses representations of the past and historical time in digital games, based on the Sid Meier's Civilization game series and game narratives elaborated by its players. From a perspective that combines the theory of history and historical consciousness with the field of game studies, an analysis of the procedural structure of the first five main titles of the series is presented in order to highlight the assumptions underlying the way these games simulate historical and social processes. Once the main procedural axes that structure the series games are identified, a qualitative approach is taken to a set of player-produced works shared publicly on the CivFanatics Forums website, highlighting the ways in which players mobilize their historical imagination in dialogue with the games. Finally, the comparison between the players' narratives and the procedural nature of the games enables a series of observations on the historical sensitivity of players in the face of these historical-themed strategy games.

    A invenção do futuro no cinema: representações de futuro nos filmes de Méliès, Lang e Menzies
    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2021-05-11) Vidal, Juliana Barros Pettersen da Costa; Abdala Junior, Roberto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7014946989727038; Abdala Junior, Roberto; Trovão, Flávio Vilas Boas; Mendes, Breno
    This work proposes an analysis of three films with a futuristic theme dating from the beginning of the 20th century: Le voyage dans la Lune (1902) by Georges Méliès, Metropolis (1927) by Fritz Lang and Things to Come (1936) by Willian Cameron Menzies. The analysis has as a theoretical assumption the methodological possibility of transforming films into historical documents, as suggested and initiated by the third generation of the Annales School in the 1970s, following the singular acceleration process of time in modernity (Koselleck, 2006), so as to enable fiction to project futures which are different from the past, recognizing the typically modern structure of narrative present in cinema (CHARNEY and SCHWARTZ, 2004) and the characterization of cinematographic works as a historical artifact integrated into the historical culture of its time (RÜSEN). From these premises, the objective is to analyze, discuss and compare the first representations of future in Western cinema and propose a reflection on the possible relationship between the selected films and the collective expectation of future at the time of their realization.
