Book Synopsis Music on the Move by : Danielle Fosler-Lussier
Download or read book Music on the Move written by Danielle Fosler-Lussier and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is a mobile art. When people move to faraway places, whether by choice or by force, they bring their music along. Music creates a meaningful point of contact for individuals and for groups; it can encourage curiosity and foster understanding; and it can preserve a sense of identity and comfort in an unfamiliar or hostile environment. As music crosses cultural, linguistic, and political boundaries, it continually changes. While human mobility and mediation have always shaped music-making, our current era of digital connectedness introduces new creative opportunities and inspiration even as it extends concerns about issues such as copyright infringement and cultural appropriation. With its innovative multimodal approach, Music on the Move invites readers to listen and engage with many different types of music as they read. The text introduces a variety of concepts related to music’s travels—with or without its makers—including colonialism, migration, diaspora, mediation, propaganda, copyright, and hybridity. The case studies represent a variety of musical genres and styles, Western and non-Western, concert music, traditional music, and popular music. Highly accessible, jargon-free, and media-rich, Music on the Move is suitable for students as well as general-interest readers.
Download or read book Keep It Moving? written by Rachel Rivenc and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kinetic art not only includes movement but often depends on it to produce an intended effect and therefore fully realize its nature as art. It can take a multiplicity of forms and include a wide range of motion, from motorized and electrically driven movement to motion as the result of wind, light, or other sources of energy. Kinetic art emerged throughout the twentieth century and had its major developments in the 1950s and 1960s. Professionals responsible for conserving contemporary art are in the midst of rethinking the concept of authenticity and solving the dichotomy often felt between original materials and functionality of the work of art. The contrast is especially acute with kinetic art when a compromise between the two often seems impossible. Also to be considered are issues of technological obsolescence and the fact that an artist’s chosen technology often carries with it strong sociological and historical information and meanings. www.getty.edu/publications/keepitmoving

When she sees a gorgeous flickering man named Vincent, she learns that they are Muses. With his help, she finds herself creating exquisite songs that she loves almost as much as songs by her favorite bands--Radiohead, M83, and The Black Keys--and she is falling in love in a way she never knew was possible. While trying to maintain her newfound friendships and her band, she falls deeper into the world of the Muses. When the original Greek Muses wake to find a world in which the internet has given everyone the tools to be an artist, a battle between traditional and new methods of creation ensues.

Book Synopsis Writing Illness and Identity in Seventeenth-Century Britain by : David Thorley
Download or read book Writing Illness and Identity in Seventeenth-Century Britain written by David Thorley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a survey of personal illness as described in various forms of early modern manuscript life-writing. How did people in the seventeenth century rationalise and record illness? Observing that medical explanations for illness were fewer than may be imagined, the author explores the social and religious frameworks by which illness was more commonly recorded and understood. The story that emerges is of illness written into personal manuscripts in prescriptive rather than original terms. This study uncovers the ways in which illness, so described, contributed to the self-patterning these texts were set up to perform.

Book Synopsis Every Step a Struggle by : Frank Manchel
Download or read book Every Step a Struggle written by Frank Manchel and published by New Academia Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2007 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book pays tribute to the sacrifices and achievements of seven individuals who made difficult and controversial choices to insure that black Americans shared in the evolution of the nation's cultural heritage. Transcriptions and analyses of never-before published uncensored conversations with Lorenzo Tucker, Lillian Gish, King Vidor, Clarence Muse, Woody Strode, Charles Gordone, and Frederick Douglass O'Neal reveal many of the reasons and rationalizations behind a racist screen imagery in the first three-quarters of the twentieth century. This primary source, replete with pictures, documentation, and extensive annotations, recounts through the words of important participants what happened to many film pioneers when a new generation of African-Americans rebelled against the nation's stereotyped film imagery. "A unique historical resource, this book is a fitting tribute to these artists, reminding us of their courage, integrity, and perseverance to succeed against great odds. The thorough, meticulous annotations make it an indispensable addition to collections in film studies and African American studies." -Denise Youngblood, Professor of History, University of Vermont. "The author has taken a unique approach and may have even created a new genre of writing: the interview embellished with scholarly commentary. It is a fascinating experiment. . . This book belongs in every research library and in all public libraries from mid-size to large cities. It fills in lacunae between existing studies." -Peter C. Rollins, Editor-in-Chief of Film & History.
Book Synopsis My Self, My Muse by : Patricia Boyle Haberstroh
Download or read book My Self, My Muse written by Patricia Boyle Haberstroh and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique look into the minds and creative processes of contemporary Irish women poets, this book focuses on the transformation of their life experiences into poetry that blends personal identity with national identiry. It assembles many voices around common themes that are emerging to change Irish poetry permanently. Patricia Boyle Haberstroh, whose book Women Creating Women: Contemporary Irish Women Poets was a Choice Outstanding Academic book in 1996, shows in this new work how nine of the most prolific Irish women writers generate their poetry, broadening our understanding of the context of the poems. She pairs each author's verse with a companion (and often autobiographical) prose piece to illuminate the ways in which the poetry expresses the poet's personal experience. As women in a politically and religiously charged, male-dominated genre and country, these poets feel compelled to transcend daily life by articulating against the "norm." In this book, they describe the issues they confronted in their growth as poets and the strategies they developed to translate life into art. In linking these poets—drawn from Northern Ireland and England as well as the Republic of Ireland—Haberstroh throws into relief the characteristics that define their unique, individual subjects, themes, and styles.
Book Synopsis Writing on the Move by : Rebecca Lorimer Leonard
Download or read book Writing on the Move written by Rebecca Lorimer Leonard and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Rebecca Lorimer Leonard shows how multilingual migrant women both succeed and struggle in their writing contexts. Based on a qualitative study of everyday multilingual writers in the United States, she shows how migrants’ literacies are revalued because they move with writers among their different languages and around the world. Writing on the Move builds a theory of literate valuation, in which socioeconomic values shape how multilingual migrant writers do or do not move forward in their lives. The book details the complicated reality of multilingual literacy, which is lived at the nexus of prejudice, prestige, and power.

Book excerpt: Midlife Muse is a paranormal women’s fiction and fantasy novel and an action and adventure tale from USA Today Bestselling Author Donna McDonald. I may look like a 40-year-old woman, but inside I'm a goddess. My name is Goddess Atlanta. Haven't you heard of me? No? Bet you've heard of my twin sister, Athena, the Goddess of War. Sure. Everyone’s heard of her. Shunned by my birth family, I grew up with the Muses as sisters and friends. Being a Muse sucked, though, and I failed at inspiring others. What can I say? Being a warrior is the song that sings in my blood. Just hand me a sword and move back while I call down lightning. Be careful though because my aim’s not what it used to be. Becoming a 40-year-old and mostly mortal woman has taken a toll, especially on my knees. Because of my father, my entire pantheon is also mortal and dying. I have to find a worthy champion to help me save us all. Failure is not an option no matter how old or mortal I get. My name is Atlanta, Goddess of the Doomsday Prophecy. And this is my Mortal Midlife Story. AUTHOR NOTE: This new story is both paranormal and fantasy (think Trolls, Pegasi, and Dragons) and women’s fiction (think issues of aging). Romantic elements are also included. This is the first book in my new series which has its roots in Greek mythology. You can count on the good guys winning some of their battles, but that’s the only promise I can make. As with all my work, there will be lots of laughs along the way.

Book Synopsis Nurses on the Move by : Mireille Kingma
Download or read book Nurses on the Move written by Mireille Kingma and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South African nurses care for patients in London, hospitals recruit Filipino nurses to Los Angeles, and Chinese nurses practice their profession in Ireland. In every industrialized country of the world, patients today increasingly find that the nurses who care for them come from a vast array of countries. In the first book on international nurse migration, Mireille Kingma investigates one of today's most important health care trends. The personal stories of migrant nurses that fill this book contrast the nightmarish existences of some with the successes of others. Health systems in industrialized countries now depend on nurses from the developing world to address their nursing shortages. This situation raises a host of thorny questions. What causes nurses to decide to migrate? Is this migration voluntary or in some way coerced? When developing countries are faced with nurse vacancy rates of more than 40 percent, is recruitment by industrialized countries fair play in a competitive market or a new form of colonialization? What happens to these workers—and the patients left behind—when they migrate? What safeguards will protect nurses and the patients they find in their new workplaces? Highlighting the complexity of the international rules and regulations now being constructed to facilitate the lucrative trade in human services, Kingma presents a new way to think about the migration of skilled health-sector labor as well as the strategies needed to make migration work for individuals, patients, and the health systems on which they depend.

Book excerpt: As for the earth, in the 2040s, with the technology of the silicon carbide which was included in the coming to practical use step, to make energy saving moved ahead in entering, the beginning in the 2010s and the atomic control technique made leaping progress. In the 2040s, the human race desired in the atomic beneficence and was reaching the atomic times which are at the height of prosperity. On the way which returns to NASA after spending the New Year holiday in Japan on January 3rd in 2050, Takeru and Rumi of the undergraduate arrived at San Francisco Airport in America. They were space Pilot's egg. When thinking whether or not it felt the shake of the disastrous earthquake for several seconds while resting at the airport lobby, the huge explosive sound as earsplitting in the moment occurred. The airplanes to be flying in the air began to collide in the air. Moreover, at the ground, it occurred in the place where the crash among the trains and the crash among the cars result and surely, it took on an aspect as it sees hell. Moreover, 5 minutes later, the time speed of the earth had begun to decline gradually. The body that the influence of the extraordinary magnetic field began to shrink Naotsune in the sun gradually and to have come and for the distribution of the dark matter which exists at the interplanetary in the solar system which was keeping a balance to have begun a malfunction in the past As for the earthquake with mighty magnitude 9.0 which occurred in San Francisco on January 3rd in 2050, the nuclear reactor in all-America each place made a meltdown occur in the influence of the earthquake. After that, the shocking truth that the energy of the huge atomic-explosion did a leak to the superconductive cable which was set up around the all-America mainland through the power-transmission wire at the exploded nuclear power plant and that it caused the huge extraordinary magnetic field came to light. Most of the machines by which a computer system and an IC chip all over the world were embedded were cruelly, too, destroyed and all the information of the person, goods, the money had disappeared with the occurrence of the huge magnetic field this time. Moreover, in the whole world, the atomic dust of radioactivity material diffused, and the human race sheltered in the shelter which got ready in the underground depth and became the status that it cannot help being content with the cellar life. In the next day of the worldwide destruction which is due to the extraordinary magnetic field, the leader in the whole world gathered to the United Nations and reviewed the ideal way of the world in the future. As a result, it resulted in the conclusion that there is a alternative only in only 6 month grace's there being and immigrating to the other planet even if it estimates the shelter life of the human race long. It is an immigration to the twin earth. After that, the formation to seem a huge spacecraft by the distant sky in each main city in the whole world *of* showed the appearance. It is the group of the spaceman who did the appearance of the human race and the Tweedledum and Tweedledee that appeared at the ground from the inside of the formation of the spacecraft which was staying in the of metropolis sky. They called the earth in the twin planet which they live in Muses. It said that it came to sense the critical status of the earth this time via 200 pieces of Mannen and to extend a hand. Takeru and Rumi were chosen as the selection member and about 1 month as Team Member which scouts the other party, stayed at the earth in the twin planet. In the story of the Muses person, they seem equipped with the ability for the elasticity of the speed in the time to be able to be controlled, being free by the individual level. Therefore, it is possible for night to rejuvenate the age if it takes medicine for the rejuvenation, Powers, by 1 tablet if it can be chosen, being free and wanting to return in the young period. Likewise, if swallowing Powers for aging if wanting to return to the elderly, it is possible to be transformed into the elderly. Saying that it prepares for the interior of the body in the associating time machine feature in the past, the future at present In Muses which the genetic engineering cleared up by developing exceedingly and multiplying 10 pieces of Mannen all of the mysteries of the life-phenomenon, it is the society which can control a life perfectly. The love is a free love and the concept, the marriage, doesn't exist. Its copy can be created by making cultivate it while being in home using the life hatch equipment, too. A born double is already transplanted in the experience and the memory like him. Because the speed in the time can be controlled, there are not concepts such as the productivity and the value, the efficiency, too, in Muses and the one which becomes the root of the various evils such as the money, too, doesn't exist. However, in Muses, the population increased explosively and reached 100 times the earth, too. It is in the water resources and the source of protein in the rich earth that they aimed secretly. The terrestrial kind immigrated to Muses and was immersed to the life of the paradise in Muses but it had begun to notice a sense of incongruity. There, it was dense or the god of the omniscient and almighty evil in the galactic system at the four dimensions space boiled and was making the holocaust plan of the earth people-out progress.
