Mexican Theatre Networks: Institutional Changes and Collaboration Patterns, 1900-1989
Israel Franco1, Miguel Escobar Varela2
1Centro Nalcional de Investigación, Documentación e Información Teatral Rodolfo Usigli, Mexico; 2National University of Singapore, Singapore
We analyse collaboration networks in Mexican theatre productions from 1900 to 1989. Our results suggest that the periods with more stable funding tended to have more closely knit communities, and institutional eras are dominated by more stratified and distinct communities.
Exploring Regional Variations in Melody Types of Japanese Children’s Songs:A Quantitative Approach
Akihiro Kawase, Ayaka Kojima
Doshisha University, Japan
This study investigates regional variations in Japanese children’s songs (warabe uta) by classifying melodies into "word-based" and "melodic" types using machine learning and GIS tools. Results reveal distinctive regional and demographic trends, with Kyoto’s melodies more "melodic" and urban areas favoring "word-based" styles, highlighting sociocultural and environmental influences.
Rethinking the Past: Network Modeling and Audio Spectral Analysis in the Study of Memory and Identity of the Visegrad Group
Anatolii Iashchenko
Sapienza University of Rome, Italy
This study explores the collective memory and national identity of the Visegrad Group (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia) using innovative methodologies such as digital humanities, network modeling, and audio spectral analysis. Combining historiographical analysis with emotional and spectral analyses, it reveals intergenerational and sociocultural dynamics shaping memory and identity.
