  • Powers of Divergence Emphasises Its Potential for the Emergence of the New and for the Problematisation of the Limits of Musical Semiotics
    ORPHEUS What does it mean to produce resemblance in the performance of written ORPHEUS music? Starting from how this question is commonly answered by the practice of interpretation in Western notated art music, this book proposes a move beyond commonly accepted codes, conventions, and territories of music performance. Appropriating reflections from post-structural philosophy, visual arts, and semiotics, and crucially based upon an artistic research project with a strong creative and practical component, it proposes a new approach to music performance. This approach is based on divergence, on the difference produced by intensifying Powers of the chasm between the symbolic aspect of music notation and the irreducible materiality of performance. Instead of regarding performance as reiteration, reconstruction, and reproduction of past musical works, Powers of Divergence emphasises its potential for the emergence of the new and for the problematisation of the limits of musical semiotics. Divergence Lucia D’Errico is a musician and artistic researcher. A research fellow at the Orpheus Institute (Ghent, Belgium), she has been part of the research project MusicExperiment21, exploring notions of experimentation in the performance of Western notated art music. An Experimental Approach She holds a PhD from KU Leuven (docARTES programme) and a master’s degree in English literature, and is also active as a guitarist, graphic artist, and video performer. to Music Performance P “‘Woe to those who do not have a problem,’ Gilles Deleuze exhorts his audience owers of Divergence during one of his seminars. And a ‘problem’ in this philosophical sense is not something to dispense with, a difficulty to resolve, an obstacle to eliminate; nor is it something one inherits ready-made.

The series is intended to target an academic audience interested in the following areas: – Traditional fields of humanities whose research paths are focused on issues of current concern; – New fields of humanities emerged to meet the demands of societal changes; – Multi/Inter/Cross/Transdisciplinary dialogues between humanities and social and/or natural sciences; – Humanities “in disguise”, that is, those fields (currently belonging to other spheres), that remain rooted in a humanistic vision of the world; – Forms of investigations and reflections, in which the humanities monitor and critically assess their scientific status and social condition; – Forms of research animated by creative and innovative humanities-based

The plays are customarily passed over as an appendage to his poetry, and the prose works are almost entirely neglected, except as philosophical documents. Though the poems are constantly being examined and explicat¬ ed, the prose style is mentioned only incidentally: "one may observe in passing that the section on history in A Vision includes the finest 1 rhythmic prose written in English since that of Sir Thomas Browne." The paradox is that though Yeats* s dramatic movement, in the form of the Abbey Theatre, exerted great influence on English and American drama, his plays themselves remain outside the realm of influence and have not passed into the tradition of English drama.

  • IAU Mercurian Nomenclature
    Appendix 1 IAU Mercurian Nomenclature 1. IAU Nomenclature Rules Since its inception in Brussels in 1919 [1], the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has gradually developed a planetary nomenclature system that has evolved from a purely classically based system into a quite so- phisticated attempt to broaden the cultural base of the names approved for planetary bodies and surface features. At present, name selection is guided by 11 rules (quoted verbatim below) in addition to conventions decided upon by nomenclature task groups for individual Solar System bodies. The general rules are as follows1: 1. Nomenclature is a tool and the first consideration should be to make it simple, clear, and unambiguous. 2. In general, official names will not be given to features whose longest di- mensions are less than 100 metres, although exceptions may be made for smaller features having exceptional scientific interest. 3. The number of names chosen for each body should be kept to a minimum. Features should be named only when they have special scientific inter- est, and when the naming of such features is useful to the scientific and cartographic communities at large. 4. Duplication of the same surface feature name on two or more bodies, and of the same name for satellites and minor planets, is discouraged. Duplications may be allowed when names are especially appropriate and the chances for confusion are very small. 5. Individual names chosen for each body should be expressed in the language of origin.
