Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is one of the early exponents of expressionist
and art cinema. The techniques in the movie function as a kind of mirror rather than a
tool of entertainment. As an autonomous language specific to cinema has not yet been
developed, the relationship with reality is handled on a more subjective level. The
qualities of the space in Dr. Caligari oscillate between two-and three-dimensional
spaces. The built environment has its own reality and aims to reflect a kind of mental
construct in order to constantly express the subjective expression of the creator. The
director uses a frame story to change his perspective. The forms in the built
environment basically appear on the edge, as if they were deformed as a result of a
certain impact. The technique of a frame story has also been used in architecture by
means of intermediate spaces in order to blur the distinction between public and private
in architecture.
