By Hand and Eye: Dance in the Space of the Artist's Book
By Hand and Eye: Dance in the Space of the Artist’s Book Judith May Walton School of Communication and the Arts, Faculty of Arts, Education, and Human Development, Victoria University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (by performance / exhibition) (December, 2010) Abstract By Hand and Eye: Dance in the Space of the Artist’s Book is a practice-based research project that explores what potential there might be for dancing, or an expanded notion of dance, to be found and/or created in book form. For instance, how might a book dance, rehearse its contents? What relationships can be found or forged between the body and the artist’s book: the movement of the eye, the spacing of thought, temporality and duration, and the choreography of the page? These propositions have been explored and expanded through a tactile, experiential examination of selected artists’ books from the National Art Library (NAL) of the Victoria & Albert Museum, a translation/re-working of existing performances into book form, and the creation of unique artist-made books. The project seeks to embody and enact concepts and questions considered through the research; signalling, suggesting, amplifying, and marking, gestures and rehearsals for movement. This process has resulted in three outcomes: an exhibition of artist-made books with a performed opening, a recuperation of selected past performances remembered and re-made in book form, and a series of written discussion papers and accompanying video essays based on the artists’ book collection at the NAL at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. -

Pure Spinors to Associative Triples to Zero-Divisors
Pure Spinors to Associative Triples to Zero-Divisors Frank Dodd (Tony) Smith, Jr. - 2012 Abstract: Both Clifford Algebras and Cayley-Dickson Algebras can be used to construct Physics Models. Clifford and Cayley-Dickson Algebras have in common Real Numbers, Complex Numbers, and Quaternions, but in higher dimensions Clifford and Cayley-Dickson diverge. This paper is an attempt to explore the relationship between higher-dimensional Clifford and Cayley-Dickson Algebras by comparing Projective Pure Spinors of Clifford Algebras with Zero-Divisor structures of Cayley-Dickson Algebras. 1 Pure Spinors to Associative Triples to Zero-Divisors Frank Dodd (Tony) Smith, Jr. - 2012 Robert de Marrais and Guillermo Moreno, pioneers in studying Zero-Divisors, unfortunately have passed (2011 and 2006).

For Cl(2n) they can be described in terms of bivectors Spin(2n) and Spin(n) based on the twistor space Spin(2n)/U(n) = Spin(n) x Spin(n). Since (1/2)((1/2)(2n)(2n-1)-n^2) = (1/2)(2n^2-n-n^2) = = (1/2)(n(n-1)) Penrose and Rindler (Spinors and Spacetime v.2) describe Cl(2n) projective pure half-spinors as Spin(n) so that the Cl(2n) full space of pure half-spinors has dimension dim(Spin(n)) -

Theory of Trigintaduonion Emanation and Origins of Α and Π
Theory of Trigintaduonion Emanation and Origins of and Stephen Winters-Hilt Meta Logos Systems Aurora, Colorado Abstract In this paper a specific form of maximal information propagation is explored, from which the origins of , , and fractal reality are revealed. Introduction The new unification approach described here gives a precise derivation for the mysterious physics constant (the fine-structure constant) from the mathematical physics formalism providing maximal information propagation, with being the maximal perturbation amount. Furthermore, the new unification provides that the structure of the space of initial ‘propagation’ (with initial propagation being referred to as ‘emanation’) has a precise derivation, with a unit-norm perturbative limit that leads to an iterative-map-like computed (a limit that is precisely related to the Feigenbaum bifurcation constant and thus fractal). The computed can also, by a maximal information propagation argument, provide a derivation for the mathematical constant . The ideal constructs of planar geometry, and related such via complex analysis, give methods for calculation of to incredibly high precision (trillions of digits), thereby providing an indirect derivation of to similar precision. Propagation in 10 dimensions (chiral, fermionic) and 26 dimensions (bosonic) is indicated [1-3], in agreement with string theory. Furthermore a preliminary result showing a relation between the Feigenbaum bifurcation constant and , consistent with the hypercomplex algebras indicated in the Emanator Theory, suggest an individual object trajectory with 36=10+26 degrees of freedom (indicative of heterotic strings). The overall (any/all chirality) propagation degrees of freedom, 78, are also in agreement with the number of generators in string gauge symmetries [4]. -
The Cayley-Dickson Construction in ACL2
The Cayley-Dickson Construction in ACL2 John Cowles Ruben Gamboa University of Wyoming Laramie, WY fcowles,[email protected] The Cayley-Dickson Construction is a generalization of the familiar construction of the complex numbers from pairs of real numbers. The complex numbers can be viewed as two-dimensional vectors equipped with a multiplication. The construction can be used to construct, not only the two-dimensional Complex Numbers, but also the four-dimensional Quaternions and the eight-dimensional Octonions. Each of these vector spaces has a vector multiplication, v1 • v2, that satisfies: 1. Each nonzero vector, v, has a multiplicative inverse v−1. 2. For the Euclidean length of a vector jvj, jv1 • v2j = jv1j · jv2j Real numbers can also be viewed as (one-dimensional) vectors with the above two properties. ACL2(r) is used to explore this question: Given a vector space, equipped with a multiplication, satisfying the Euclidean length condition 2, given above. Make pairs of vectors into “new” vectors with a multiplication. When do the newly constructed vectors also satisfy condition 2? 1 Cayley-Dickson Construction Given a vector space, with vector addition, v1 + v2; vector minus −v; a zero vector~0; scalar multiplica- tion by real number a, a ◦ v; a unit vector~1; and vector multiplication v1 • v2; satisfying the Euclidean length condition jv1 • v2j = jv1j · jv2j (2). 2 2 Define the norm of vector v by kvk = jvj . Since jv1 • v2j = jv1j · jv2j is equivalent to jv1 • v2j = 2 2 jv1j · jv2j , the Euclidean length condition is equivalent to kv1 • v2k = kv1k · kv2k: Recall the dot (or inner) product, of n-dimensional vectors, is defined by (x1;:::;xn) (y1;:::;yn) = x1 · y1 + ··· + xn · yn n = ∑ xi · yi i=1 Then Euclidean length and norm of vector v are given by p jvj = v v kvk = v v: Except for vector multiplication, it is easy to treat ordered pairs of vectors, (v1;v2), as vectors: 1. -
Similarity and Consimilarity of Elements in Real Cayley-Dickson Algebras
SIMILARITY AND CONSIMILARITY OF ELEMENTS IN REAL CAYLEY-DICKSON ALGEBRAS Yongge Tian Department of Mathematics and Statistics Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada K7L 3N6 e-mail:[email protected] October 30, 2018 Abstract. Similarity and consimilarity of elements in the real quaternion, octonion, and sedenion algebras, as well as in the general real Cayley-Dickson algebras are considered by solving the two fundamental equations ax = xb and ax = xb in these algebras. Some consequences are also presented. AMS mathematics subject classifications: 17A05, 17A35. Key words: quaternions, octonions, sedenions, Cayley-Dickson algebras, equations, similarity, consim- ilarity. 1.

This consideration is motivated by some recent work on eigen- values and eigenvectors, as well as similarity of matrices over the real quaternion and octonion algebras(see [5] and [18]). In order to establish a set of complete theory on eigenvalues and eigenvectors, as well as similarity of matrices over the quaternion, octonion, sedenion alge- bras, as well as the general real Cayley-Dickson algebras, one must first consider a basic problem— how to characterize similarity of elements in these algebras, which leads us to the work in this article. Throughout , , and denote the real quaternion, octonion, and sedenion algebras, H O S n respectively; n denotes the 2 -dimensional real Cayley-Dickson algebra, and denote A R C the real and complex number fields, respectively. -

Arthur Raff Oral History
"0" Preface Page and Introductory Page An introduction by Art Raff to the following typed transcription and accompanying audio tapes: I started this on 28 March 1996 with a completely unplanned narrative ofreminiscences about my days of working for the Marine Physical Laboratory. I told ofevents just as they happened to come to mind, and thus the sequence is in no way chronological. Betty Shor typed a transcript from this fIrst tape. When I read the transcript I was embarrassed by the unprofessional quality ofmy audio tape. I took the liberty quite some time later to severely edit the transcript and add more events ofinterest, but left it in its original nonchronological sequence. So now in July 1996 I am making an audio to accompany the edited and enlarged transcript by reading the transcript to an audio tape recorder. I have compiled an index to help an interested person years from now to locate some event. This index will accompany the final transcript and audio tape.

Traffic flow prediction using Deep Sedenion Networks Alabi Bojesomo, Hasan Al-Marzouqi, Panos Liatsis Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department, Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi, UAE. {100046384, hasan.almarzouqi, panos.liatsis}@ku.ac.ae Abstract In this paper, we present our solution to the Traffic4cast2020 traffic prediction challenge. In this competition, participants are to predict future traffic parameters (speed and volume) in three different cities: Berlin, Istanbul and Moscow. The information provided includes nine channels where the first eight represent the speed and volume for four different direction of traffic (NE, NW, SE and SW), while the last channel is used to indicate presence of traffic incidents. The expected output should have the first 8 channels of the input at six future timing intervals (5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60min), while a one hour duration of past traffic data, in 5mins intervals, are provided as input. We solve the problem using a novel sedenion U-Net neural network. Sedenion networks provide the means for efficient encoding of correlated multimodal datasets. We use 12 of the 15 sedenion imaginary parts for the dynamic inputs and the real sedenion component is used for the static input. The sedenion output of the network is used to represent the multimodal traffic predictions. Proposed system achieved a validation MSE of 1.33e-3 and a test MSE of 1.31e-3. 1 Introduction In this contribution, we briefly summarize the methodology and experiments in tackling the Traf- fic4cast challenge 2020 [1]. The aim of the challenge is to predict future traffic flow volume and speed using traffic information projected on high resolution city maps. -
