  • A History of Electroacoustics: Hollywood 1956 – 1963 by Peter T
    A History of Electroacoustics: Hollywood 1956 – 1963 By Peter T. Humphrey A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music and the Designated Emphasis in New Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor James Q. Davies, Chair Professor Nicholas de Monchaux Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Nicholas Mathew Spring 2021 Abstract A History of Electroacoustics: Hollywood 1956 – 1963 by Peter T. Humphrey Doctor of Philosophy in Music and the Designated Emphasis in New Media University of California, Berkeley Professor James Q. Davies, Chair This dissertation argues that a cinematic approach to music recording developed during the 1950s, modeling the recording process of movie producers in post-production studios. This approach to recorded sound constructed an imaginary listener consisting of a blank perceptual space, whose sonic-auditory experience could be controlled through electroacoustic devices. This history provides an audiovisual genealogy for electroacoustic sound that challenges histories of recording that have privileged Thomas Edison’s 1877 phonograph and the recording industry it generated. It is elucidated through a consideration of the use of electroacoustic technologies for music that centered in Hollywood and drew upon sound recording practices from the movie industry. This consideration is undertaken through research in three technologies that underwent significant development in the 1950s: the recording studio, the mixing board, and the synthesizer. The 1956 Capitol Records Studio in Hollywood was the first purpose-built recording studio to be modelled on sound stages from the neighboring film lots. The mixing board was the paradigmatic tool of the recording studio, a central interface from which to direct and shape sound.

Smith, Staff Reporter NEW YORK -- When a man with a unique beard announces that Beethoven's last quartets are actually storage devices for noble emotions -- emotions that he can now reproduce with an Apple computer -- some sort of background check is in order. Now then: Who is Professor Manfred Clynes, and what are his scientific credentials? Prof. Clynes, an esteemed neuroscientist, formulated the basic biological law that explains, among other things, why it is impossible to smell the fading of an odor. He also invented the machine that was for many years the standard laboratory device for measuring brain waves. Fair enough. And his musical credentials? Prof. Clynes has performed piano recitals to great acclaim on three continents. He studies with Pablo Casals. Sir Yehudi Menuhin, the violin virtuoso, calls him a friend and "a brilliant musician". Well. And his literary credentials? Prof. Clynes is a published poet and the author of five books. He coined the word "cyborg". He also coined the word "sentics" to describe a new science entirely of his own devising. Anything else? A fan letter from Albert Einstein maybe? "Your art combines a clear understanding of the inner structure of the music with a rare spontaneity of expression. I am convinced that you will meet with the understanding to which your achievement entitles you," Einstein wrote to Prof.

  • The Meaning of Self-Presenting As a 'Cyborg'
    Ars Vivendi Journal No.1 (August 2011): 2-17 The Meaning of Self-presenting as a ‘Cyborg’ Kaname UEMURA* *Graduate School of Core Ethics and Frontier Sciences, Ritsumeikan University 1. The cyborg There are some people who use technology as part of their bodies and self-present as “cyborgs”. In this paper I consider, through examining the case of a woman who received an OOKP transplant, the connotations of references to “cyborg” when used in self presentation. “Cyborg” is a word that was created by Manfred Clynes and Nathan Kline by combining the words “cybernetics” and “organism”. Human beings cannot survive in outer space, and Clynes and Kline originally conceived of “cyborgs” as astronauts who attached biological feedback devices to their bodies in order to maintain homeostasis and thereby survive in what would otherwise be a lethal environment (Clynes & Kline 1960 ). Danna Haraway sees the idea of the cyborg as a combination (hybrid) of a living creature and a machine and uses this a metaphor for the violation of boundaries which has been one of the goals of the western scientific tradition. This tradition has struggled to overcome the boundaries built by the dichotomies of self and other, mind and body, culture and nature, man and woman, and creator and created. Haraway points to three boundaries being destroyed in the high-tech culture of the latter half of the twentieth century: the border between humans and animals, the border between living creatures (humans and animals) and machines, and the border between the physical and the non-physical. He maintains that the ontological distinction between machines and living creatures has already disappeared (Haraway 1991).

  • Manfred Clynes, a Neuroscientist and Concert Pianist, Says "Pulses" Show How the Masters Would Have Wanted Their Works to Be Performed
    The New York TImes - February 22, 2000 Page 1 of 6 February 22, 2000 Imbuing a Computer's Performance With Human Emotion (diagram) How Would Great Composers Play It? Some Clues By BOB TEDESCHI nyone who plays Beethoven, Mozart or Bach faces issues that have plagued performers throughout the centuries: namely, the composer's score provides scant guidance on how to approach many facets of the music. Performers make educated guesses as to how loudly to play individual notes, for instance, or how to accent four consecutive quarter notes, but they remain guesses. Susan Spann for The New York Times Dr. Manfred Clynes, a neuroscientist and concert pianist, says "pulses" show how the masters would have wanted their works to be performed. Now Dr. Manfred Clynes, a neuroscientist and concert pianist who lives in Sonoma, Calif., has discovered what he says are clues as to how exactly the masters would have wanted their pieces performed. Dr. Clynes, a former neuropsychology professor at the University of Melbourne, who coined the term "cyborg" and has performed to the acclaim of people like Yehudi Menuhin and Albert Einstein, has identified what he says are patterns in the music of master composers. Those patterns, or "pulses," show how a composer favors louder and longer notes at consistent points in a phrase, much as poets resort to patterns of phrasing or painters favor certain brush strokes. Dr. Clynes argues that similar patterns exist on higher levels in musical compositions, like the way composers stress certain bars in a movement. http://www.superconductor.com/clynes/nyt2-22-2000.htm 25/11/2003 The New York TImes - February 22, 2000 Page 2 of 6 Performances of Beethoven, for instance, carry his characteristic strength and intensity when, in four-note sequences, the second note is played shorter and softer than the others, whereas the notes in Mozart's sequences are more consistent in length and amplitude.

The thesis opens with an account of the origins of the piano étude in the works of Chopin and Liszt, situating it within the political, economic, and aesthetic conditions of the 19th century. Subsequently, sets of études by Cage, Ligeti, Nancarrow, and Lizée are studied, each using a different body of theoretical literature—including utopian thought, queer theory, and posthumanism—to understand how this limit manifests in musical works.

Downloaded from sss.sagepub.com at St Petersburg State University on January 11, 2014 ABSTRACT Cyborgs – cybernetic organisms, hybrids of humans and machines – have pervaded everyday life, the military, popular culture, and the academic world since the advent of cyborg studies in the mid 1980s. They have been a recurrent theme in STS in recent decades, but there are surprisingly few cyborgs referred to in the early history of cybernetics in the USA and Britain. In this paper, I analyze the work of the early cyberneticians who researched and built cyborgs. I then use that history of cyborgs as a basis for reinterpreting the history of cybernetics by critiquing cyborg studies that give a teleological account of cybernetics, and histories of cybernetics that view it as a unitary discipline. I argue that cyborgs were a minor research area in cybernetics, usually classified under the heading of ‘medical cybernetics’, in the USA and Britain from the publication of Wiener’s Cybernetics in 1948 to the decline of cybernetics among mainstream scientists in the 1960s.

  • Expression and Movement in Music
    Hearing through the Body: Expression and Movement in Music Georgios Papageorgiou Music Department, Royal Holloway, University of London, United Kingdom 2012 A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Georgios Papageorgiou, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 2 Abstract This thesis engages with complex issues of musical expression and movement, and their relation, on the one hand, to musical structure and, on the other hand, to embodied musical experience. It aims to fill a gap in music theory and analysis: most methods overemphasise abstract conceptualisation of structural relations at the expense of the more dynamic, intuitive aspect of musical experience. As a solution, it offers a specific analytical method that can be used to explore dynamic aspects of music as experienced through the whole body. Drawing mainly on nineteenth-century piano music, I analyse aspects of structure in both composition and performance in terms of expressive and motional qualities, revealing the relationship between musical and physical movement. Expressivity in music derives its meaning, at least partly, from the embodied experience of music: performers shape expression through their whole body while listeners react to it in a comparable way, albeit less overtly. Two related systems of graphic notation are introduced, which provide a non-verbal means of representing expressive movement and at the same time encourage an immediate, visceral relationship to the music. The first notation captures the animated quality of expressive movement by analogy with the motion of a bouncing ball, while the second breaks down the expressive musical flow into discrete gestural patterns of specific motional character.
