  • TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian
    Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian To learn more about The UCSD Guardian's coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, click here → TV Review: “The Great” May 25, 2020 Chloe Esser “The Great” doesn’t care about history, and neither should you. From creator of “The Favourite” Tony McNamara comes another historical retelling that slides right out of the conventions typically associated with the period drama genre into a terribly clever, terrifically dark piece of its own. “The Great” covers Russian empress Catherine the Great’s rise to power as a teenage girl — with some massive liberties. The show neatly balances the courtly decadence and subtle power plays of “The Favourite” with the blood, sex, and quick wit that’s to be expected in a world where all historical dramas must compete to be the next “Game of Thrones.” Nevertheless, it’s a well-maintained balance. Heavily stylized, effortlessly witty, and maybe a bit needlessly obscene, “The Great” is a show that knows exactly what it is, whether or not that has anything to do with actual history. The show begins with German teenager Catherine (Elle Fanning), who has come to Russia to marry a man she has never met –– Emperor Peter III (Nicholas Hoult). An idealist and intellectual caught up in the wave of Europe’s Enlightenment, Catherine has big plans for Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian her new home, and she is disappointed to find a court more concerned with hunting, sex, and booze than discussing the latest Voltaire.

BINGHAM Norman, Oklahoma 2017 AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF TWITCH STREAMERS: NEGOTIATING PROFESSIONALISM IN NEW MEDIA CONTENT CREATION A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION BY _______________________________ Dr. Eric Kramer, Chair _______________________________ Dr. Ralph Beliveau _______________________________ Dr. Ioana Cionea _______________________________ Dr. Lindsey Meeks _______________________________ Dr. Sean O’Neill Copyright by CHRISTOPHER M. BINGHAM 2017 All Rights Reserved. Dedication For Gram and JJ Acknowledgements There are many people I would like to acknowledge for their help and support in finishing my educational journey. I certainly could not have completed this research without the greater Twitch community and its welcoming and open atmosphere. More than anyone else I would like to thank the professional streamers who took time out of their schedules to be interviewed for this dissertation, specifically Trainsy, FuturemanGaming, Wyvern_Slayr, Smokaloke, MrLlamaSC, BouseFeenux, Mogee, Spooleo, HeavensLast. and SnarfyBobo. I sincerely appreciate your time, and am eternally envious of your enthusiasm and energy. Furthermore I would like to acknowledge Ezekiel_III, whose channel demonstrated for me the importance of this type of research to semiotic theory, as well as CohhCarnage and ItmeJP, whose show Dropped Frames, allowed further insight into the social milieu of professional Twitch streaming. I thank Drew Harry, PhD, Twitch’s Director of Science for responding to my enquiries. Finally, I thank all the streamers and fans who attended TwitchCon in 2015 and 2016, for the wonderful experience.

Children’s Workshops; Errata. 8 The Ink and Paint of Music Amin Bhatia recounts a day in his life as an “electronic composer” for animated TV shows, explaining his tools and techniques. 11 The Burgeoning of a Project: Pierre Hébert’s La Plante humaine [English & Italian] Andrea Martignoni delves into Pierre Hébert’s radical method for marrying animation with music. 20 The Dream of Color Music, and Machines That Made it Possible William Moritz gives a quick and dazzling historical overview attempts to create visual music using “color organs.” 25 Who’s Afraid of ASCAP? Popular Songs in the Silly Symphonies From 1929 to 1939, Disney’s Silly Symphonies united animation with a rich array of music, including such songs as “Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.” J.B. Kaufman reports. 28 Carl Stalling and Humor in Cartoons Daniel Goldmark shows how Carl Stalling, who may have been the most skilled and clever composer of car- toon music Hollywood ever had, used music to create gags and help tell a story at the same time. 31 Voice Acting 101 So, you want to be a voice actor?

See more information. Memory Insufficient the games history e-zine About the Editor: Zoya Street is a freelance video game historian, journalist and writer, working in the worlds of design criticism and digi- tal content business strategy. zoyastreet.com | @rupazero Memory Insufficient is a celebration of history. First and foremost, it is an attempt to promote and encourage historical writing about games; social histories, biographies, historically situated criticism of games and anything else. It is also a place to turn personal memories of games past into eye-opening written accounts. It is a place to honour the work of game developers who have influenced the path of history. It is a place to learn what games are - not as a formal discipline, but as lived realities. Like all historical study, Memory Insufficient is fundamentally about citizenship. It’s not enough to just remember and admire the games of the past. History is about understanding our place in the world; as developers, as critics and as players. The power of history is to reveal where the agents of change reside, and empower us to be the change we want to see. Memory Insufficient is a celebration of history, not just as fact but as action.

  • Brian Carlisle
    Auburn CA 1:31:04 m4v Brian Carlisle An interview conducted by Peter Asaro with Selma Šabanović November 21 2010 Q: Okay, so why don't we just start by having you introduce yourself and tell us where you were born and where you grew up. Brian Carlisle: Hi. I'm Brian Carlisle. I was born in San Francisco. I grew up in both San Francisco and Marin County and then later lived down in the Peninsula. Q: And where did you do your undergraduate studies? Brian Carlisle: I went to both undergraduate and graduate work at Stanford University. So I studied mechanical engineering there at Stanford. And a professor was a gentleman named Bernie Roth, who was very well known in the robotics community and who was also the advisor and professor for a number of other colleagues that I subsequently worked with, including Bruce Shimano, whom I believe you've also interviewed. Q: How did you first become interested in robotics? Brian Carlisle: I was always kind of interested in mechanical things. My grandfather was a pattern maker who made patterns for big diesel engines. So what he did was make big wooden patterns for these giant engines that would pull freight trains around. And I visited him several times in Ohio. And he took me one time to his factory where he worked. And I was sort of fascinated by the whole process of making things, and creating something that was big and strong and powerful and mechanical. So that got me interested in mechanical things at a very early age.

  • Breaking It All Down
    Vol: 1 No: 1 Fall 2013 About the Front Cover “Science fiiction and Anime together? Sounds like Gundam to me. Or at least, 80s era gigantic mecha with a realistic bent. A proper sense of their massive scale is a must.” About the Artist Brian A. Caslis is an artist living in Oregon. You can find more of his work athttp://greencoat7.tumblr.com/ Vol: 1 No: 1 Fall 2013 Hello, and welcome to Breaking It All Down: The Zine! This is meant as something of a companion volume to my web-series “Breaking It All Down”, as occasionally viewed on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/user/CountZeroOr. Part of the point of the show was to discuss science fiction books and movies, as well as discussing video games from a literary SF perspective. Over time, I realized that while I had a certain degree of engagement with younger audiences, older SF fans generally prefer to take in discussion of SF in writing, rather in videos, with a few exceptions. In particular, Harlan Ellison has started up his own YouTube channel, which thus far he’s been using to upload some of the older video clips he did for The Science Fiction Channel (back before it contracted a case of Syfy). Consequently, if I wanted to get in a dialog with older fans who might be interested in my views on SF, it would have to be in writing. However, in this day and age of blogs, combined with the fact that I’m already writing for a web page – Bureau42.com, I would, theoreti- cally, have that covered, I thought.

This new data structure stores the octree in a pruned flattened fashion where only header and active leaf nodes are stored in a linear array. This generates high levels of lossless compression when applied to 3D geometry where clusters of homogeneous information exist. This data structure yields fast, log(n) look-up times and initial results show that when coupled with bespoke scanning methods searching times can surpass that of direct access. Hierarchical pyramid visualisations techniques are also presen- ted using the information stored at each level in the tree structure.
