Abstract
Today, the use of mobile social networks has become an important and sensitive issue. It is rooted in several social factors. In the present era, the level of users’ skills has also become a vital issue for human societies. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between users’ skills and positive and negative uses of mobile social networks. To conduct this survey, a multi-stage cluster sampling method was used and 385 young people in Yazd, Iran were selected. The data gathering tool was a questionnaire that was validated with content and structural validity as well as Cronbach's alpha coefficient for reliability. The findings showed that there were significant relationships between the users’ skills and negative and positive uses of mobile social networks. The users’ skills explained 0.33% and 0.14% of the variance of positive and negative uses of mobile social networks, respectively. The results of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) also showed that the model had a suitable goodness of fit.

Now a day’s jewel designers have been used motifs which have been taken from Persian traditional culture and typography. These types of motifs were led to writing motifs and development of discursive challenge about the identity of jewelry. The aim of this study is how new signs of “written motifs” have clearly appeared in Persian contemporary jewelry. This research has been done by the descriptive and comparative method based on Laclau and Mouffe's discursive analysis and then two group of jewelry which are inspired by “writing motifs” were analyzed by “semiotics of writing”. In conclusion, regardless of constraints of merely traditional decorative functions of the jeweler, the emphasis on the importance of the context of a written motif, the transmutation of massage to the audience and at last but not least conversion of jewelry to media are the main factors of the transformation of a visual motif to written motifs.

This paper seeks to study the Iranian microcelebrities and their use of the new media to entering at the star system. Efforts have been made to examine the role of social networks in deepening the celebrity culture and creating a new kind of "stardom" by examining five of the Instagram users. For study of Instagram pages, the qualitative method of social semantics have been used. This research is the first internal research that addresses the phenomenon of Iranian microcelebrities, and in particular how they use Selfie To enter at the star system. The findings of this paper show that with the growth of social networks, the celebrity culture in Iran has been changed. The traditional star system, which had hitherto been based on hierarchies and specific norms of the mass media, has now undergone a change. The consequences of this transformation are the entry of ordinary people into the star system. In the meantime, a major way of presenting a desirable self is Selfie images that are often based on gender discourse. By publishing Selfie images, the viewer enters into the most personal moods of life belonging to these emerging stars. This shows that the mechanisms for spread of microcelebrity in social networks are changing the important aspects of the culture and the boundaries of privacy. Changes in the Celebrity culture can be correlated with other Macrocultural changes such as increasing individualism, deepening of the secularism and weakening of some of the indices of religiosity in Iranian society.

Galleries are the meeting point of the values of the artistic and the market community; galleries accord the aesthetic values with the values of the market by determining the price of art works. This accordance is more important for emerging artists, as it can enable them to continue their activities. In this article, for studying the alignment and conflict between the values of the artistic community and the market community, the function of galleries and art fairs with consideration on their role in introducing emerging artists have been studied. Therefore, the concept of emerging artists has been addressed first; then the field study of the annual exhibition of ‘Haft Negah’ has been considered, and the role of this event in introducing the emerging artists into the Iranian art community has been critically evaluated. The methodology is based on a field study (in four periods 2012 to 2015) of ‘Haft Negah’ in which artists whose works have been sold at least in three periods were evaluated, and some of them were identified as emerging artists. The works of these emerging artists were evaluated by a group of referees (consisted of nine critics, gallery owners and artists). The research results showed that there is a great difference of opinion between the values of the art community activists and the beneficiaries of the Iran’s art market; In this market, some criteria such as innovation and novelty of the artist have the least importance (the lowest coefficient of influence in the regression model);

Satan is a general term for an entity that, before human creation, has had a long history of worshiping the Lord. He was driven from God's temple by refusing to prostrate to Adam; and put his eternal enmity towards Bani Adam. Descriptions and interpretations about Satan are not limited to the celestial scriptures and include other written sources. The existence of illustration in some of these books has led to the formation of examples of Satan's image among them. In the old visual culture of Iran, Satan's images have been featured in some illustrated manuscripts. These images, which we know as painting works, represent the various images of Satan in accordance with the subject matter of the text. The present paper focuses on the recognition of the visual culture dominant in Iranian painting and its main purpose is examining the various narratives of the narrators of Satan and classifying them. The questions posed in the paper, respectively, describe the various visual narratives of the devil in painting, the various literary sources written for illustrating the images and the amount of text and image matching. By answering these questions, the image of the devils in the painting was categorized into various forms of the demons, angels, humans and hybrid being; images which are based on a wide variety of literary sources, and in addition to the effect of the text, have also benefited from the artistic taste of painters.
