  • Immersion Into Noise
    Immersion Into Noise Critical Climate Change Series Editors: Tom Cohen and Claire Colebrook The era of climate change involves the mutation of systems beyond 20th century anthropomorphic models and has stood, until recent- ly, outside representation or address. Understood in a broad and critical sense, climate change concerns material agencies that im- pact on biomass and energy, erased borders and microbial inven- tion, geological and nanographic time, and extinction events. The possibility of extinction has always been a latent figure in textual production and archives; but the current sense of depletion, decay, mutation and exhaustion calls for new modes of address, new styles of publishing and authoring, and new formats and speeds of distri- bution. As the pressures and re-alignments of this re-arrangement occur, so must the critical languages and conceptual templates, po- litical premises and definitions of ‘life.’ There is a particular need to publish in timely fashion experimental monographs that redefine the boundaries of disciplinary fields, rhetorical invasions, the in- terface of conceptual and scientific languages, and geomorphic and geopolitical interventions. Critical Climate Change is oriented, in this general manner, toward the epistemo-political mutations that correspond to the temporalities of terrestrial mutation.

  • Michael Jackson's Gesamtkunstwerk
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 11, No. 5 (November 2015) Michael Jackson’s Gesamtkunstwerk: Artistic Interrelation, Immersion, and Interactivity From the Studio to the Stadium Sylvia J. Martin Michael Jackson produced art in its most total sense. Throughout his forty-year career Jackson merged art forms, melded genres and styles, and promoted an ethos of unity in his work. Jackson’s mastery of combined song and dance is generally acknowledged as the hallmark of his performance. Scholars have not- ed Jackson’s place in the lengthy soul tradition of enmeshed movement and mu- sic (Mercer 39; Neal 2012) with musicologist Jacqueline Warwick describing Jackson as “embodied musicality” (Warwick 249). Jackson’s colleagues have also attested that even when off-stage and off-camera, singing and dancing were frequently inseparable for Jackson. James Ingram, co-songwriter of the Thriller album hit “PYT,” was astonished when he observed Jackson burst into dance moves while recording that song, since in Ingram’s studio experience singers typically conserve their breath for recording (Smiley). Similarly, Bruce Swedien, Jackson’s longtime studio recording engineer, told National Public Radio, “Re- cording [with Jackson] was never a static event. We used to record with the lights out in the studio, and I had him on my drum platform. Michael would dance on that as he did the vocals” (Swedien ix-x). Surveying his life-long body of work, Jackson’s creative capacities, in fact, encompassed acting, directing, producing, staging, and design as well as lyri- cism, music composition, dance, and choreography—and many of these across genres (Brackett 2012).

  • ATMOSPHERIC DIVING SUITS Kyznecov RR, Egorov IB
    УДК 004.9 ATMOSPHERIC DIVING SUITS Kyznecov R.R., Egorov I.B., Scientific adviser: senior teacher Labusheva T.M. Siberian Federal University In our lives, information technology is found almost in everything - in smart stoves and in supercomputers. And atmospheric diving suits are not an exception. The report is dedicated to them. It will show the way they are connected to our future profession and what they can do. The most important periods of the atmospheric diving suit evolution are given below: LETHBRIDGE 1715 (UK) The first recorded attempt at protecting a diver in a rigid armor was done by John Lethbridge of Devonshire. It happened in England in 1715. The oak suit offered by him had a viewing port and holes for the diver’s arms. Water was kept out of the suit by greased leather cuffs which sealed around the operator’s arms. The device was said to have made many working dives to 60ft/18m. Lethbridge’s device probably performed as claimed. It is known from the painstaking work of Belgian expert, Robert Stenuit. Working under the protection of Comex with assistance from Comex’s founder, Henri Delauze, Stenuit imitated and operated as the "Lethbridge Engine," using only materials and techniques available in day time. JIM In 1960s an English company called DHB was interested very mush in Atmospheric Diving Suits. With the help of the government it started to perfect the Peress Tritonia suit from 1930 that it found out by coincidence and luck. After performing some tests with the old suit it became obvious that the joints had to be designed again.
