This document summarizes the history of housing development in the ancient region of Sistan in southeastern Iran. It describes the three main types of housing that existed in the late 20th century: 1) black tents used by nomadic dairy farmers and tribes, 2) clay domed houses that became popular across villages, and 3) imarets or mansions used by rulers. It notes that foreign influence and new building technologies led to the development of buildings with thick walls and white paint to reduce heat. The paper examines the evolution of housing types in the Sistan region over time.
Supporting Academic Research on Sex and Sexuality Across Cultures and Discipl...Shirin Eshghi
Abstract:
Japanese literary works that feature sexual content have been a major focus of academic scholarship in recent decades.The ability to support this research often proves problematic. Information on sexual material is often missing from the collections and services mandate of source countries. Publications are often hard to identify even when vendors are willing to supply them. Without a tradition of collecting and classifying such material within Japan, we are left to rely on a Western framework of handling and housing the works. This presentation, considers the challenges associated with building and managing erotic collections across languages and disciplines.

The first lecture will introduce the phenomenon of shrines in Central Asian history and then focus on a shrine at Balkh and the way society’s needs shaped its different legacies. The second lecture considers the ways in which a shrine could encourage formaƟ on of an individual tradition of exclusive claim to the shrine and its material benefits and how that tradion on led to the formation of a new city. The third lecture suggests how the meaning of a building conceived to commemorate the glory of an individual and his descendants could be reshaped to legitimize new ideologies and the final lecture considers the sacred space created by a holy artefact and the ways in which its community exploited that space. All the lectures will link the ever-changing architecture to the societal contexts.

Abstract
Art in the twentieth century has been innovated and evolved more than previous centuries. So as in
contemporary art, the artist's individual influence has surpassed the influence artist's work and the artist is
the focus of attention, whereas in the old art, the artist's work was influential and also the artist's works
were formed based on peoples tastes. But today, by focusing on the artist, people's tastes have been
pushed aside and the artist's feeling has been emerged. Absence of art work in interior building creates
contradiction with human who favors art. The created space should have artistic features or could place
art works inside to the best of manifestation in order to be able to interact with cognitive ability of human.
This point can also be insisted on that nature inventory of interior space is designed for human and
without interior space; the building appears like a great statue. Art movements formed in recent decades
have caused that new needs will be felt whether for displaying works in a particular environment or
integrating the space and art work; in a wider environment, the created interior space can be looked at as
an art work in the prevailing art movements.
