Unlike other methods, which are based on a procedural analysis of the chordal structure, our tuning scheme continually solves a system of linear equations, rather than relying on sequences of conditional if-then clauses. In complex situations, where not all intervals of a chord can be tuned according to the frequency ratios of just intonation, the method automatically yields a tempered compromise. We outline the implementation of the algorithm in an open-source software project that we have provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the tuning method. The first attempts to mathematically characterize is particularly pronounced if m and n are small. musical intervals date back to Pythagoras, who Examples include the perfect octave (m:n = 2:1), noted that the consonance of two tones played on the perfect fifth (3:2), and the perfect fourth (4:3). a monochord can be related to simple fractions Larger values of mand n tend to correspond to more of the corresponding string lengths (for a general dissonant intervals. If a normally consonant interval introduction see, e.g., Geller 1997; White and White is sufficiently detuned from just intonation (i.e., the 2014).

  • Native Americans, Europeans, and the Raid on Pickawillany
    ABSTRACT “THE LAND BELONGS TO NEITHER ONE”: NATIVE AMERICANS, EUROPEANS, AND THE RAID ON PICKAWILLANY In 1752, the Miami settlement at Pickawillany was attacked by a force of Ottawa and Chippewa warriors under the command of a métis soldier from Canada. This raid, and the events that precipitated it, is ideally suited to act as a case study of the role of Native American peoples in the Ohio Country during the first half of the eighteenth century. Natives negotiated their roles and borders with their British and French neighbors, and chose alliances with the European power that offered the greatest advantage. Europeans were alternately leaders, partners, conquerors and traders with the Natives, and exercised varying levels and types of control over the Ohio Country. Throughout the period, each of the three groups engaged in a struggle to define their roles in regards to each other, and to define the borders between them. Pickawillany offers insights into this negotiation. It demonstrates how Natives were not passive victims, but active, vital agents who acted in their own interest. The events of the raid feature a number of individuals who were cultural brokers, intermediaries between the groups who played a central, but tenuous, role in negotiations. It also exhibits the power of ritual violence, a discourse of torture and maiming that communicated meanings to friends and rivals alike, and whose implications shaped the history of the period and perceptions of Natives.

    ABSTRACT ACIIPIHKAHKI: IŠI KATI MIHTOHSEENIWIYANKIWI MYAAMIONKI ROOTS OF PLACE: EXPERIENCING A MIAMI LANDSCAPE by JOSHUA SUTTERFIELD This thesis explores an individual interpretation of Miami Ecological Knowledge (MEK), which is a form of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) specific to the Miami people. Through the research project my own identity and understanding of concepts such as landscape, place, time and nature have evolved into a multifaceted and multicultural interpretative lens. This work combines MEK and ecological science to provide an example of Native American research within an academic setting. The research is guided by the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma‘s cultural revitalization effort and is intended as a contribution to that effort. Because this research was directed by the Miami Tribe‘s interest in cultural revitalization it contributes to what has been referred to as decolonization. aciipihkahki: iši kati mihtohseeniwiyankwi myaamionki Roots of Place: Experiencing a Miami Landscape A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University In partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography by Joshua Sutterfield Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor_____________________________ Professor Thomas C.
