The Demolished Man Free FREE THE DEMOLISHED MAN PDF Alfred Bester | 256 pages | 08 Jul 1999 | Orion Publishing Co | 9781857988222 | English | London, United Kingdom Demolition Man (film) - Wikipedia Demolition Man is a American science fiction action film directed by Marco Brambilla in his directorial debut. Stallone is John Spartan, a risk- taking police officer, who has a reputation The Demolished Man causing destruction The Demolished Man carrying out his work. After a failed attempt to rescue hostages from evil crime lord Simon Phoenix, The Demolished Man are both sentenced to be cryogenically frozen in Phoenix is thawed for a parole hearing inbut escapes. Society has changed and all crime has seemingly been eliminated. Unable to deal with a criminal as dangerous as Phoenix, The Demolished Man authorities awaken Spartan to help capture him again. The story makes allusions to many other works including Aldous Huxley 's dystopian novel Brave New World[6] and H. Wells 's The Sleeper Awakes. The film was released in the United States on October 8, Inpsychopathic career criminal The Demolished Man Phoenix kidnaps a busload of hostages and takes refuge in an abandoned building. LAPD Sergeant John Spartan runs a thermal scan of the building; finding no trace of the hostages, he leads an The Demolished Man assault to capture Phoenix. Phoenix sets off explosives to destroy the building; the hostages' corpses are later found in the rubble, and Phoenix claims Spartan knew about them and attacked anyway. Both men are sentenced to lengthy terms in the city's new "California Cryo-Penitentiary", a prison in which The Demolished Man are cryogenically frozen and exposed to subliminal rehabilitation techniques. Raymond Cocteau. Phoenix is thawed for a parole hearing and escapes from the cryo- prison by saying a secret password, without knowing how The Demolished Man had learned it. Since the police are no longer equipped to deal with any sort of violent crime, Lieutenant Lenina Huxley has Spartan thawed and reinstated to apprehend Phoenix again. Spartan finds life in San Angeles to be depressing and oppressive, since all types of behavior deemed immoral or unhealthy have been declared illegal; conversely, many other members of the police force view Spartan as savage and uncivilized. Anticipating that Phoenix will attempt to secure firearms, Spartan leads Huxley to a museum and finds The Demolished Man looting an exhibit of weapons. Phoenix escapes and holds Cocteau at gunpoint, but is unable to kill him. Cocteau had orchestrated Phoenix's escape, implanted a command to prevent Phoenix from killing him, and ordered him to kill Edgar Friendly, the leader of a resistance group called the Scraps who refuse to conform. Spartan and Huxley witness this exchange on security cameras and review the cryo-prison records, learning to their shock that Phoenix's rehabilitation program was designed to turn him into an extremely dangerous criminal and terrorist. Spartan and Huxley confront Friendly in the underground ruins where the Scraps live and save him from an assassination attempt by Phoenix and a gang of criminals thawed by Cocteau to assist him. Phoenix taunts Spartan with the revelation that he had framed Spartan for the deaths of the hostages, who were already dead when the building exploded. Phoenix escapes to the cryo-prison, and Spartan pursues him with weapons provided by the Scraps. Unable to harm Cocteau, Phoenix has one of his gang kill him instead and begins thawing out the cryo-prison's most dangerous convicts. Spartan incapacitates Huxley for her protection and fights Phoenix, breaking a vial of a cryogenic chemical that rapidly freezes Phoenix's body solid. Spartan kicks his head off, shattering it, and escapes as the uncontrolled quick-freezing effect triggers an explosion that destroys the cryo-prison. The police fear that the loss of Cocteau and the cryo-prison will end society as they know it, but Spartan suggests that they and the Scraps work together to combine the best aspects of order and personal freedom. He kisses Huxley and they leave together. The original script was written by Peter Lenkovwho retained a story by credit. His initial pitch was rejected by an executive who didn't understand his "frozen cop" idea. The finished script, where a super cop has to battle The Demolished Man world's deadliest criminal, in a future where there is almost no crime, generated more interest. In the early drafts the script was a regular action movie, with no attempt at comedy. Waters pitched it as an action movie The Demolished Man of Woody Allen's Sleeper. Waters had an idea about a small part of Universal Citya shopping and entertainment area called CityWalkand wondered what it might be The Demolished Man if one day all of Los Angeles might be like that, and the idea grew from there. He cited the conclusion of the film, where society will need to find a new balance and compromise, as representing his own position in the political The Demolished Man ground. The Demolished Man looked around his bathroom and said he had a bag of seashells The Demolished Man the toilet as decorations, so Waters decide to use that. He said it was some of the fastest work he'd ever written, [19] and that he had only The Demolished Man on it for two and a half weeks. Dekker explained "If you don't show Kansas, Oz isn't all that special. Director Marco Brambilla had a background in shooting big-budget TV commercials, and this was his first feature film. Brambilla was working to make Richie RichThe Demolished Man Macaulay Culkinbut they couldn't get the budget they needed. The film went into production approximately eight months after that. Stallone passed on the project at first, but came back around to it. He liked the idea The Demolished Man two equal opponents in Spartan and Phoenix, and decided to take a chance on doing something he had not done before. Chan turned it down, not wanting to play a villain. Brambilla explained how he thought the film could be and his passion for the script they were writing, and the next day they received a call and Snipes agreed to do the film. Brambilla said of Snipes "he works The Demolished Man rehearsing too much, and he improvises a lot. The two of them, that combination of energies and the way they interact, really The Demolished Man the movie a lot of favors. They completely respected each other and were really professional, and they did get along. There was no ego or any competition between the actors. General Motors provided the production team with 18 concept vehicles, including the Ultralite. More than 20 fiberglass replicas of The Demolished Man Ultralite were produced to portray civilian and SAPD patrol vehicles in the film. After filming had completed, the remaining Ultralites were returned to Michigan as part of GM's concept vehicle fleet. The film featured the actual demolition of one of the buildings of the no longer operative Belknap Hardware and Manufacturing Company in Louisville, Kentucky. The Demolished Man enabled them to have more The Demolished Man over the explosion, instead of having to cut straight to the building being gone and rubble as they had been forced to do with other projects. And have the explosion and rubble more designed, so to speak. It's fun to do that, because those big pyrotechnics always look great", Silver noted. The film suffered repeated delays, and the original day production schedule ran to days. Heavy rains in Los Angeles delayed filming. A soundstage was The Demolished Man damaged in a fire. Insiders at Warner Bros. Silver rejected this view, saying, "Marco's done a brilliant job. We're over-schedule because this is a very hard movie to make, not because Marco The Demolished Man inexperienced. Demolition Man was the first production to film at the Los Angeles Convention Center after it was rebuilt in the s, it was used as the Cocteau Center. Several locations in Irvine were also used. The helicopter bungee jump at the start of the film was coordinated by Charles Picerni, and performed by stuntman Ken Bates. For safety, and due The Demolished Man the danger of recoil back into the helicopter blades, a decelerator was used instead of a real bungee, and Bates jumped feet from a Chinook helicopter. The film mentions Arnold Schwarzenegger having served as President of the United Statesafter a Constitutional amendment was passed allowing him to The Demolished Man for the office due to The Demolished Man popularity. Coincidentally, a day short of ten years after the film's release, the California gubernatorial recall election was scheduled. The election saw Schwarzenegger actually begin a political career as the 38th Governor of California from until Shortly after he was elected, an " Arnold Amendment " did get proposed. One of the film's focal points is Taco Bell The Demolished Man the sole surviving restaurant chain after "the franchise wars. Lines were re-dubbed and logos changed during post-production. A subplot involving Spartan's daughter was cut for pacing reasons. This led to some confusion at test screenings, where audiences thought Sandra Bullock was the daughter, and reacted negatively to the scene where they were about to have sex. In the novel, a terrorist and his enemy, a counter-terrorism soldier, are cryogenically frozen and awakened in the 22nd century to find violence has been purged from society. He did not file a lawsuit, as it would have been too expensive for him to hire a lawyer and fight against major Hollywood forces in the United States. He also claimed that Hollywood has plagiarized works of many Eastern European writers after the fall of the Iron Curtainand that he knows the person he claims to be responsible for illegally selling his idea to the filmmakers.

  • Cartoon and the Cult of Reduction
    Forced Perspectives: Cartoon and The Cult Of Reduction MARTINE LISA COROMPT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (by creative work and dissertation) August 2016 School of Art Faculty Of The Victorian College Of The Arts The University of Melbourne 2 FIG 1 Corompt, Martine Torrent – the endless storm 2015 still from the digital animation 3 4 ABSTRACT Summary Commencing with caricature and reductive imaging techniques, this research explores parallel tendencies evident within broader culture. The thesis argues this reductive predisposition became broader and more prominent during Modernism, the digital revolution of the 1990s, and is strongly manifest within various aspects of contemporary art and culture. Theorized as the ‘Cult of Reduction’ this tendency is both a cultural condition, and a studio methodology employed to create two dimensional projected animation and digital prints. Abstract Beginning with pictorial caricature as a historical predecessor to animation, the research attempted to find in caricature a meaningful methodology to provide a framework for two-dimensional animation. Incorporating digital processes with drawing and installation, reduction was understood and examined pictorially, temporally and materially. The thesis project considered caricature as a means of exploring pictorial representation as reduction, but soon recognized reduction had more broad implications, and parallel examples were discovered in areas such as economics, ecology lifestyle ideologies, as well as Fine art and design. While pictorial reduction was most obvious within Modernism, it also was resonant in less obvious ways within the digital art revolution of the 1990’s. It has been prevalent again in contemporary art as a ‘reductivist practice’ recognized by Mike Kelley’s essay ‘Foul Perfection: Thoughts on Caricature’ (1989).

  • Stallone Fights Studio's Accounting Methods
    Business Valuations: Stallone Fights Studio’s Accounting Methods Accounting issues take center stage in a recent dispute involving Sylvester Stallone's production company, Rogue Marble, and Warner Bros. Entertainment. The lawsuit charges Warner Bros. with breach of contract, unfair business practices and accounting fraud in connection with the revenues from the 1993 movie Demolition Man. Stallone seeks "full accounting" of revenues from the film, plus interest and damages. The suit doesn't yet specify damages, because Rogue Marble isn't "presently aware of the exact amounts of damages resulting" from the studio's alleged wrongdoing. However, the Oscar-nominated actor, writer and director — who's famous for his roles as Rocky Balboa and John Rambo — has a bigger fight in mind: His lawsuit alleges that "motion picture studios are notoriously greedy." And he wants them to account in a timely and open manner for amounts owed to actors, writers and filmmakers that are contingent on a film's performance. Here are the details of this high-profile case, along with an explanation of how its lessons about contingent consideration extend beyond Hollywood. Case Facts In 1992, Warner Bros. entered into an artist loan-out agreement with Rogue Marble for the services of Sylvester Stallone in Demolition Man, a sci-fi action film that also starred Wesley Snipes and Sandra Bullock. The loan-out agreement granted Rogue Marble certain percentages of the film's total defined gross after the amount exceed certain levels. Specifically, the contract granted: 15% of the gross when it exceeded $125 million, 17.5% when it exceeded $200 million, and 20% when it exceeded $250 million.

  • Computer Algorithms As Persuasive Agents: the Rhetoricity of Algorithmic Surveillance Within the Built Ecological Network
    COMPUTER ALGORITHMS AS PERSUASIVE AGENTS: THE RHETORICITY OF ALGORITHMIC SURVEILLANCE WITHIN THE BUILT ECOLOGICAL NETWORK Estee N. Beck A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2015 Committee: Kristine Blair, Advisor Patrick Pauken, Graduate Faculty Representative Sue Carter Wood Lee Nickoson © 2015 Estee N. Beck All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Kristine Blair, Advisor Each time our students and colleagues participate online, they face invisible tracking technologies that harvest metadata for web customization, targeted advertising, and even state surveillance activities. This practice may be of concern for computers and writing and digital humanities specialists, who examine the ideological forces in computer-mediated writing spaces to address power inequality, as well as the role ideology plays in shaping human consciousness. However, the materiality of technology—the non-human objects that surrounds us—is of concern to those within rhetoric and composition as well. This project shifts attention to the materiality of non-human objects, specifically computer algorithms and computer code. I argue that these technologies are powerful non-human objects that have rhetorical agency and persuasive abilities, and as a result shape the everyday practices and behaviors of writers/composers on the web as well as other non-human objects. Through rhetorical inquiry, I examine literature from rhetoric and composition, surveillance studies, media and software studies, sociology, anthropology, and philosophy. I offer a “built ecological network” theory that is the manufactured and natural rhetorical rhizomatic network full of spatial, material, social, linguistic, and dynamic energy layers that enter into reflexive and reciprocal relations to support my claim that computer algorithms have agency and persuasive abilities.

  • Iris Pattern Recognition with a New Mathematical Model to Its Rotation Detection
    Chapter 3 Iris Pattern Recognition with a New Mathematical Model to Its Rotation Detection Krzysztof Misztal, Emil Saeed, Jacek Tabor, and Khalid Saeed Abstract The work deals with the iris pattern recognition as one of the most popular automated biometric ways of individual identification. It is based on the acquired eye images in which we localize the region of interest – the iris. This extremely data-rich biometric identifier is stable throughout human life and well protected as internal part of the eye. Moreover, it is genetic independent, so that we can use it to identify or verify people among huge population. This chapter will present the human vision nature focusing on defects and diseases that change the surface information of the iris. Also will be shown the main stream and the historical background of mathematical research resulting in a new algorithm for automatic iris feature extraction. A special attention is paid to the method devel- oped to detect the iris rotation for accurate success rate under different destructive problems and environmental conditions. The obtained results after using the new mathematical model have proved the algorithm high success rate in iris pattern recognition. K.
