AESTHETIC POLITICS OF AFFECT AND AUTONOMY In Arundhati Virmani (ed.), Political Aesthetics: Culture, Critique and the Everyday, London, Routledge, 2016, p.71-86. The emergence of techno music – commonly used in France as electronic dance music – in the early 1990s is inseparable from rave parties as a form of spatiotemporal deployment. It signifies that the live diffusion via a sound system powerful enough to diffuse not only its volume but also its sound frequencies spectrum, including infrabass, is an integral part of the techno experience. In other words listening on domestic equipment is not a sufficient condition to experience this music.

    THURSDAY 8 SEPTEMBER 2016: SESSIONS 1‐4 Maciej Fortuna and Krzysztof Dys (Academy of Music, Poznán) BIOGRAPHIES Maciej Fortuna is a Polish trumpeter, composer and music producer. He has a PhD degree in Musical Arts and an MA degree in Law and actively pursues his artistic career. In his work, he strives to create his own language of musical expression and expand the sound palette of his instrument. He enjoys experimenting with combining different art forms. An important element of his creative work consists in the use of live electronics. He creates and directs multimedia concerts and video productions. Krzysztof Dys is a Polish jazz pianist. He has a PhD degree in Musical Arts. So far he has collaborated with the great Polish vibrafonist Jerzy Milian, with famous saxophonist Mikoaj Trzaska, and as well with clarinettist Wacaw Zimpel. Dys has worked on a regular basis with young, Poznań‐based trumpeter, Maciej Fortuna. Their album Tropy has been well‐received by the audience and critics as well. Dys also plays in Maciej Fortuna Quartet, with Jakub Mielcarek, double bass, and Przemysaw Jarosz, drums. In 2013 the group toured outside Poland with a project ‘Jazz from Poland’, with a goal to present the work of unappreciated or forgotten or Polish jazz composers. The main inspiration for Krzysztof Dys is the work of Russian composers Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin, Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev, American artists like Bill Evans and Miles Davis, and last but not least, a great Polish composer, Grayna Bacewicz. TITLE Classical Inspirations in Jazz Compositions Based on Selected Works by Roman Maciejewski ABSTRACT A few years prior to commencing a PhD programme, I started my own research on the possibilities of implementing electronic sound modifiers into my jazz repertoire.

  • Neotrance and the Psychedelic Festival DC
    Neotrance and the Psychedelic Festival GRAHAM ST JOHN UNIVERSITY OF REGINA, UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND Abstract !is article explores the religio-spiritual characteristics of psytrance (psychedelic trance), attending speci"cally to the characteristics of what I call neotrance apparent within the contemporary trance event, the countercultural inheritance of the “tribal” psytrance festival, and the dramatizing of participants’ “ultimate concerns” within the festival framework. An exploration of the psychedelic festival offers insights on ecstatic (self- transcendent), performative (self-expressive) and re!exive (conscious alternative) trajectories within psytrance music culture. I address this dynamic with reference to Portugal’s Boom Festival.

  • Lessons Learned from Swedish Family Policies
    Uppsala, Sweden November 10, 2010 Dear Reader, This is a draft text of the lecture given for the Forum Européen de Femmes in Brussels on November 3, 2010. This is not the actual text presented – it is rather the text written from memory after the presentation using the actual slides. As this presentation was given with a special target group in mind, who also had the opportunity at the presentation to ask questions, there will of course be ques- tions raised by this written presentation which are not possible for me to answer in person. I am working on an condensed English translation of the Swedish book on which this presentation is based. When this book is published in late 2011, this should hopefully answer some more questions. At The Mireja Institute home page you will also find more written work in English by me. The will also be the possibility to pre-order the book.

All three Platform meetings have brought interesting ideas and generated reflections that the Pop & Jazz Platform Working Group (PJP WG) would like to share with higher music education (HME) institutions around Europe. “Yesterday, in the excellent keynote by Dominic Murcott, I heard a beautiful, well-articulated and passionate plea. A plea to rethink what higher music education stands for. A plea for the musician as an artist, rather than a performer. A plea for music as an art, rather than a skill. A plea for a revaluation of creativity, originality and imagination. A plea that propels us forward in asking existential questions.

  • Using Cognitive Work Analysis to Identify Opportunities for Enhancing Human-Heavy Vehicle System Performance
    Using Cognitive Work Analysis to identify opportunities for enhancing human-heavy vehicle system performance Ida Bodin Handledare KTH/JTH: Anette Karltun Handledare Scania: Stas Krupenia Date: 2013-06-25 Master Thesis in Ergonomics and MTO, Second Level, 30 hp KTH STH Campus Flemingsberg Abstract In the road transportation industry development is moving towards more advanced technology and the use of automation in the driving environment is increasing. Re- garding the safety risks associated with an unconsidered use of a high degree of auto- mation, it is expensive to develop automatic systems dealing with complex situations. As there is still much improvement to do in this area, this thesis aims to contribute to developing safe autonomic systems to assist truck drivers. The aim of the study was twofold, namely 1) to use Cognitive Work Analysis to iden- tify opportunities for enhancing human-heavy vehicle system performance and 2) to contribute to improving the possibilities for identifying opportunities for enhancing system performance through the development of a method of prioritizing Activities using a Contextual Activity Template. To identify the opportunities for improvement, the first two phases of a Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) – Work Domain Analysis (WDA) and Control Task Analysis (ConTA), were conducted. To complete the WDA, five hours of interviews were conducted with a senior tech- nical adviser from Scania CV AB as well as a two hour interview with an experienced commercial driver. Additionally, an observation study was conducted during which three video cameras were used to capture sixteen hours of footage (per camera) from 35 hours (2500kms) of observation (one driver/day over a four day period).
