Download or read book "Seeing Red" Or "Tickled Pink"? Investigating the Power of Language and Vision Models Through Color, Emotion, and Metaphor written by Olivia Winn and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We use this model to examine the relationship between color and emotion devoid of confounding factors. Finally, we turn to figurative language as a resource, examining the pragmatics of visualizing metaphoric phrases. We demonstrate a novel approach to generating visual metaphor through the collaboration of large language models and diffusion-based text-to-image models, and in doing so create a novel dataset of visual metaphor with both literal and figurative captions. We then develop an evaluation framework using human-AI collaboration to examine the efficacy of the model collaboration, and choose a downstream task of visual entailment to evaluate the human-AI collaboration.

M. Wright 7/4 British actor Tom Holland has swung into the spotlight for his portrayal of a teenage Spider-Man. While many people know 23-year-old Holland only for this role, there’s so much more to the up-and-coming star. With a father who is a comedian and author, and a mother who is a photographer, Holland was bound to be drawn to the arts, which was first evidenced by his taking dance lessons as a child. Despite being bullied for dancing, he never gave up on his passion, later saying, “You couldn’t hit me hard enough to stop me from doing it.” His perseverance paid off because at just 10 years old, he was discovered by a choreographer for Billy Elliot the Musical. After intense training in dance and gymnastics, he took the lead in the show. Holland’s first film came in 2012 when he starred in The Impossible, a movie about a family caught in Thailand’s 2004 tsunami. His moving performance as a brave but terrified young boy won him praise and several awards, including the National Board of Review Award for Breakthrough Performance. Following this impressive start, Holland went on to act in a variety of films until he got his big break—being chosen to play Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 英國演員湯姆．霍蘭德因飾演青少年的蜘蛛人而備受矚目。雖然許多人只因為這個角色才認識二十三歲的霍蘭德，但這位明日之星可不只如此而已。 由於父親是喜劇演員和作家，母親是攝影師，霍蘭德注定會受到藝術吸引，這最早從他童年上舞蹈課就獲得了印證。儘管因跳舞遭到霸凌，但他從未放棄熱愛的事，後來他說過：「你再怎麼打擊我也不能阻止我做這件事。」他的堅持努力得到回報，因為他年僅十歲就被《舞動人生音樂劇》的舞蹈指導發掘。經過密集的舞蹈和體操訓練後，他在該劇中擔任主角。 霍蘭德主演的首部電影是二○一二年的《浩劫奇蹟》，是關於一家人受困於二○○四年泰國海嘯的故事。他飾演一名勇敢卻受到驚嚇的年輕男孩，其動人的演技為他贏得讚賞及好幾座獎項，包括「美國國家評論協會的最佳突破演出獎」。在初試啼聲就令人印象深刻後，霍蘭德繼續在各種類型的電影中演出，直到他得到這個大好機會——獲選為漫威電影宇宙中的蜘蛛人一角。 7/5 Landing the role of Spider-Man was a dream come true for Holland, who was so obsessed with the superhero that he ran around in at least 30 different Spider-Man suits during his childhood. It wasn’t just his love of the character that won him the part, though. The young actor says he can relate to Peter Parker because neither of them was ever “the cool kid at school.” On top of that, the acrobatic skills he continues to develop allow him to execute some of his own stunts. Holland was widely applauded for his energetic performance in Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, even receiving a BAFTA Rising Star Award. His success launched him into stardom, but he’s made sure not to let it go to his head because he knows that “the terrible thing about being famous is you start to believe it.” This self-awareness, along with reminders from his dad, has helped him stay grounded. This month, Holland is back again in Spider-Man: Far From Home, in which the teenage superhero faces off against villains during a school trip to Europe. With several other movies lined up for the promising young actor, our Spidey sense tells us that this is just the start of a brilliant career. 獲得蜘蛛人一角對霍蘭德來說是美夢成真，他小時候十分著迷於這名超級英雄，玩耍時穿過至少三十套的蜘蛛人服裝。不過，他獲得這個角色不只是因為他對蜘蛛人的熱愛。這名年輕演員說他對彼得．帕克感同身受，因為他們從來都不是「學校裡的酷小孩」。此外，他持續培養的特技能力讓他能親自做其中一些特技動作。 霍蘭德在二○一七年《蜘蛛人：返校日》中充滿活力的演出廣受讚賞，甚至獲頒「英國影藝學院電影獎明日之星」。他的成功使他躋身明星之列，但他確保自己不因此自滿，因為他知道「成名可怕的地方在於你開始信以為真。」這份自覺，加上父親的提醒都幫助他腳踏實地。 這個月，霍蘭德在《蜘蛛人：離家日》又回來了，電影中這名十幾歲的超級英雄到歐洲校外教學的期間對上了反派人物。還有好幾部電影在等著這位前程似錦的年輕演員，我們「蜘蛛人般的」直覺告訴我們這只是一個精彩生涯的開始。

Book Synopsis The Material Culture of Writing by : Cydney Alexis
Download or read book The Material Culture of Writing written by Cydney Alexis and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Material Culture of Writing opens up avenues for understanding writing through scholarship in material culture studies. Contributors to this volume each interrogate an object, set of objects, or writing environment to reveal the sociomaterial contexts from which writing emerges. The artifacts studied are both contemporary and historical, including ink, a Victorian hotel visitors’ book, Moleskine notebooks, museum conservators’ files, an early twentieth-century baby book, and a college campus makerspace. Close study of such artifacts not only enriches understanding of what counts as writing but also offers up the potential for rich current and historical inquiry into writing artifacts and environments. The collection features scholars across the disciplines—such as art, art history, English, museum studies, and writing studies—who work as teachers, historians, museum curators/conservators, and faculty. Each chapter features methods and questions from contributors’ own disciplines while at the same time speaking to writing studies’ interest in writers, writing identity, and writing practice. The authors in this volume also work with a variety of methodologies, including literary analysis, archival research, and qualitative research, providing models for the types of research possible using a material culture studies framework. The collection is organized into three sections—Writing Identity, Writing Work, Writing Genre—each with a contextualizing introduction from the editors that introduces the chapters themselves and imagines possible directions for writing studies research facilitated by material culture studies. The Material Culture of Writing serves as an accessible introduction to work in material culture studies for writing studies scholars, graduate students, and undergraduates, especially as it makes a distinctive contribution to writing studies in its material culture studies approach. Because of the interdisciplinarity of material culture studies and this volume’s contributors, this collection will appeal to a wide range of scholars and readers, including those interested in writing studies, the history of the book, print culture, genre studies, archival methods, and authorship studies.

Book Synopsis Washing the Brain Metaphor and Hidden Ideology by : Andrew Goatly
Download or read book Washing the Brain Metaphor and Hidden Ideology written by Andrew Goatly and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-17 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary metaphor theory has recently begun to address the relation between metaphor, culture and ideology. In this wide-ranging book, Andrew Goatly, using lexical data from his database Metalude, investigates how conceptual metaphor themes construct our thinking and social behaviour in fields as diverse as architecture, engineering, education, genetics, ecology, economics, politics, industrial time-management, medicine, immigration, race, and sex. He argues that metaphor themes are created not only through the universal body but also through cultural experience, so that an apparently universal metaphor such as event-structure as realized in English grammar is, in fact, culturally relative, compared with e.g. the construal of 'cause and effect' in the Algonquin language Blackfoot. Moreover, event-structure as a model is both scientifically reactionary and, as the basis for technological mega-projects, has proved environmentally harmful. Furthermore, the ideologies of early capitalism created or exploited a selection of metaphor themes historically traceable through Hobbes, Hume, Smith, Malthus and Darwin. These metaphorical concepts support neo-Darwinian and neo-conservative ideologies apparent at the beginning of the 21st century, ideologies underpinning our social and environmental crises. The conclusion therefore recommends skepticism of metaphor’s reductionist tendencies.

Book Synopsis Journey to Self-Awareness by : Noreen M. Guzie
Download or read book Journey to Self-Awareness written by Noreen M. Guzie and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-08-30 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The awareness of our personal development as individual human beings is a spiritual path. Many people in our day are coming to realize this is true. Their experience serves to enlarge the idea of spirituality which traditionally has been limited to churchgoing or esoteric practice. As we become increasingly conscious of ourselves as unique persons, as we honor our experience, we awaken our sense of possessing an expanded spirit that takes more and more of life into its embrace. Noreen and Tad Guzie have been leaders in the movement of celebrating expanded self-awareness. 'Journey to Self-Awareness' is a workbook that allows us to reflect on the stories, symbols, and rituals of our particular lives. As we honor them consciously we become aware of their sacred character and the holy path we have been walking as human beings.
