Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published annually since 2008 "The Complete & Independent Guide to the Eurovision Song Contest" contains every statistic imaginable! Over 330 pages of historical records and analysis of voting, divided into three sections: 1. Qualification for Eurovision for the current year. We look at each country's qualification process, whether by internal selection or by nation competition. Where a national broadcaster has held a competition to select their artist and song, we give details of how the competition was organised, the points or voting percentages given to the top 3 and a brief profile of the winning performer. 2. Contest Details and Voting Record. A full record of every Contest since 1956. For each year we list the artists, the songwriters & composers. Then the points awarded by each country to each performer in table format. We include the semi-final details for each year since they were introduced, and now we have separate points given by each country's jury and public we show separate voting tables for both, and that's for the two semi-finals and the final for the current year. A complete record of every point awarded. We've all experienced the excitement of the announcement of the public voting results since the innovation of the separate points scoring, and next in this section we have a round-by-round record of the scoreboard to show how each country moved up and down the leaderboard as the points are announced. Finally in this section the book lists every country's Eurovision entry in country alphabetical order so you can look up any artist and see their performance in semi-finals and final. 3. Here's where the data really gets crunched! As well as the simple records such as most successful & least successful countries, whether internally selected artists do better than those who qualify through national competitions, winning margins, how well (and more commonly, how badly) the Big 5 perform, languages songs have been performed in and which type of act generally does best, we do a deep dive into complex statistical analysis & include data on average points received for each position in the running order since 1975, the closest & most one-sided voting relationships, how points awarded by juries differ from those given by the public, geographical and bloc voting and finally every country's voting record in every Contest. If you're curious about whether some countries always favour others, this is the section for you!

Book Synopsis Understanding the Eurovision Song Contest in Multicultural Australia by : Jessica Carniel
Download or read book Understanding the Eurovision Song Contest in Multicultural Australia written by Jessica Carniel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-02 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the first in-depth study of the Eurovision Song Contest from an Australian perspective. Using a cultural studies approach, the study draws together fan interviews and surveys with media and textual analysis of the contest itself. In doing so, it begins to answer the question of why the European song contest appeals to viewers in Australia. It explores and challenges the dominant narrative that links Eurovision fandom to post-WWII European migration, arguing that this Eurocentric narrative presents a limited view of how contemporary Australian multicultural society operates in the context of globalized culture. It concludes with a consideration of the future of the Eurovision Song Contest as Australia enters into the ‘Asian century’.
Book Synopsis An Orchestra Beyond Borders by : Elena Cheah
Download or read book An Orchestra Beyond Borders written by Elena Cheah and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together young musicians from Palestine, Israel and other countries of the Middle East, the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra is both one of the most acclaimed youth orchestras in the world and a rare note of hope in a war-torn region. Founded by Daniel Barenboim and Edward Said in 1999, it aims to promote Arab-Israeli understanding through music. In An Orchestra Beyond Borders, Elena Cheah, a professional musician and assistant to Daniel Barenboim, explores the orchestra's journey through the remarkable stories of the musicians that comprise it. These youthful testimonies are a window into the life of the region. Together, they communicate the musicians' ambitions and hopes, their varied and conflicting views on life and politics, and above all the orchestra's transformative ability to create an atmosphere of musical cooperation away from the implications and hardships of a world full of division and conflict.

Book Synopsis Sensory Design by : Joy Monice Malnar
Download or read book Sensory Design written by Joy Monice Malnar and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if we designed for all of our senses? Suppose for a moment that sound, touch, and odor were treated as the equals of sight, and emotion considered as important as cognition. What would our built environment be like if sensory response, sentiment, and memory were critical design factors, the equals of structure and program? In Sensory Design, Joy Monice Malnar and Frank Vodvarka explore the nature of our responses to spatial constructs--from various sorts of buildings to gardens and outdoor spaces, to constructions of fantasy. To the degree that this response can be calculated, it can serve as a typology for the design of significant spaces, one that would sharply contrast with the Cartesian model that dominates architecture today. In developing this typology, the authors consult the environmental sciences, anthropology, psychology, and architectural theory, as well as the spatial analysis found in literary depiction. Finally, they examine the opportunities that CAVE and other immersive virtual reality technologies present in furthering a new, sensory-oriented design paradigm. The result is a new philosophy of design that both celebrates our sensuous occupation of the built environment and creates more humane design. A revolutionary approach to the built environment that embraces all of our senses and modes of understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir by the master pianist, conductor and internationalist Daniel Barenboim - 'the closest thing that classical music can offer to Nelson Mandela' [THE TIMES] 'The power of music lies in is its ability to speak to all aspects of the human being-the animal, the emotional, the intellectual, and the spiritual.
