Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of recording movements of the human body is almost as old as the art of dancing: it has been said that the ancient Egyptians had a system of notation, but there is no real evidence to prove that this was so. The present system was developed by the Russian dancer Vladimir Ivanovich Stepanov at the end of the 19th century. It is based on existing music notation, and although basic is certainly practical: one has only to read the official testimonial, signed by such people as Petipa and Johanssen, to realise this. Lessons in the system were given at the Imperial Ballet Schools, and many ballets of the period were notated in it. Stepanov's book is no more than a skeleton key, showing the general principles of his system and their application, yet even as it stands it can be used to decipher old notations - it was by means of notations made in Stepanov's system that Nicolai Sergeyev was able to reproduce The Sleeping Princess for Diaghilev, and other ballets for the Sadler's Wells Ballet and International Ballet. More recently, other hands have used the system to revive ballets long thought to have been irrevocably lost.

Book excerpt: "In this book I have sought to help [the surgeons] by a re-statement of the principles which underlie the art of orthopœdic surgery. My chapters are based on a score of lectures given at the Royal College of Surgeons of England in the winter 1917-18 on "The anatomical and physiological prinicples underlying the treatment of injuries to muscles, nerves, bones and joints' ... I have sought .. to introduce [the reader] to the 'Menders of the maimed' as they were in the heyday of life. In only this way, I conceive can medical history be written."--Pref.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of the ways human movement can be represented as a formal language and how this language can be mediated technologically. In Motion and Representation, Nicolás Salazar Sutil considers the representation of human motion through languages of movement and technological mediation. He argues that technology transforms the representation of movement and that representation in turn transforms the way we move and what we understand to be movement. Humans communicate through movement, physically and mentally. To record and capture integrated movement (both bodily and mental), by means of formal language and technological media, produces a material record and cultural expression of our evolving kinetic minds and identities. Salazar Sutil considers three forms of movement inscription: a written record (notation), a visual record (animation), and a computational record (motion capture). He focuses on what he calls kinetic formalism—formalized movement in such pursuits as dance, sports, live animation, and kinetic art, as well as abstract definitions of movement in mathematics and computer science. He explores the representation of kinetic space and spatiotemporality; the representation of mental plans of movement; movement notation, including stave notation (Labanotation) and such contemporary forms of notation as Choreographic Language Agent; and the impact of digital technology on contemporary representations of movement—in particular motion capture technology and Internet transfer protocols. Motion and Representation offers a unique cultural theory of movement and of the ever-changing ways of representing movement.

Download or read book The Psychology of Graphic Images written by Manfredo Massironi and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2001-08-01 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the nature of one of the most ancient tools for nonverbal communication: drawings. They are naturally adaptable enough to meet an incredibly wide range of communication needs. But how exactly do they do their job so well? Avoiding the kinds of aesthetic rankings of different graphic domains so often made by art historians and critics, Manfredo Massironi considers an extensive and representative sample of graphic applications with an open mind. He finds a deep mutuality between the material components of images and the activation of the perceptual and cognitive processes that create and decipher them. Massironi first examines the material components themselves: the mark or line, the plane of representation (the angle formed by the actual drawing surface and the depicted objects), and the position of the viewpoint relative to the depicted objects. The roles played by these three components are independent of the content of the drawing; they function in the same way in concrete and abstract representations. He then closely scrutinizes the choices made by the person planning and executing the drawings. Given that any object can be depicted in an infinite number of different ways, the drawer performs continuous work emphasizing and excluding different features. The choices are typically unconscious and guided by his or her communicative goals. A successful graph, be it simple or complex, is always successful precisely because the emphasized features are far fewer in number than the excluded ones. Finally, he analyzes the perceptual and cognitive integrations made by the viewer. Drawings are not simply tools for communication but important instruments for investigating reality and its structure. Richly illustrated, the book includes a series of graphic exercises that enable readers to get a sense of their own perceptual and cognitive activity when inspecting images. Massironi's pathbreaking taxonomy of graphic productions will illuminate all the processes involved in producing and understanding graphic images for a wide audience, in fields ranging from perceptual and cognitive psychology through human factors and graphic design to architecture and art history.

This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its fourth edition 'Tyldesley and Grieve's Muscles, Nerves and Movement' has established itself as the leading textbook for the study of movement by occupational therapists. The book provides students with a sound understanding of the way in which bones, joints, muscles and nerves allow the body to perform movement during daily activities. Early chapters provide a foundation for the study of movement, with the complexity of detail increasing as the book progresses. Functional anatomy is related to the movements of daily living and is supported by activities for experiencing and observing the way we perform everyday tasks. Later chapters consider the integration of sensory and motor processes for the planning and execution of movement. This fourth edition has been extensively updated and revised. Highly illustrated and now in full colour throughout the book also includes: • Case histories with self assessment exercises • Summary boxes • Key terms • Practice notepads
