Broyles Special Activities and Innovation Operations Evaluation Group Copyright © 2017 CNA Abstract The military is on the cusp of a major technological revolution, in which warfare is conducted by unmanned and increasingly autonomous weapon systems. However, unlike the last “sea change,” during the Cold War, when advanced technologies were developed primarily by the Department of Defense (DoD), the key technology enablers today are being developed mostly in the commercial world. This study looks at the state-of-the-art of AI, machine-learning, and robot technologies, and their potential future military implications for autonomous (and semi-autonomous) weapon systems. While no one can predict how AI will evolve or predict its impact on the development of military autonomous systems, it is possible to anticipate many of the conceptual, technical, and operational challenges that DoD will face as it increasingly turns to AI-based technologies.

  • The AGA Song Book up to Date
    3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago.

  • Tian Zhuangzhuang: an Author Haunted by the Images*
    Szkice filmoznawcze Alicja Helman https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8266-6038 Wydział Zarządzania i Komunikacji Społecznej Uniwersytet Jagielloński Tian Zhuangzhuang: An Author Haunted by the Images* Key words: biopic, minority genre, ethnographic cinema, religion, ritual Słowa kluczowe: biografia filmowa, gatunek „minority”, kino etnograficzne, religia, rytuał Introduction The last film Tian Zhuangzhuang made was 2009’s The Warrior and the Wolf (Láng Zāi Jì). Not until 2015 has he participated, as one of three directors, in a blockbuster Lady of The Dynasty (Wángcháo de Nǚrén Yáng Guìfēi), where his contribution is difficult, if not impossible to isolate. As the aficionados of his talent had accurately predicted, the director never managed to put himself on the map again, amidst the transformations of China’s Film Industry that took a turn towards commercialization, conquest of foreign markets, and competition with Western production at home. Unable to find funds or producers, let alone audiences for his “cinematic project,” Tian did not only refuse to make films as forced upon him, but did not need to; most probably, he could not. His output proper – counting out student films – can be narrowed down to the period between the years 1985 (On the Hunting Ground [Lièchǎng zhā sā]) and 2006 (The Go Master [Wú Qīngyuán]), encompassing projects consistent with his views, temperament, and an idiosyncratic language of film art. However, even within this timeframe, we will find features from which Tian evidently distances himself. We ought to distinguish four feature films from the period 1987–1991, which Tian was attached to as director, rather than perceiving them as works of his own choosing.

  • 'Here for Good' Campaign Fact Sheet
    ‘HERE FOR GOOD’ CAMPAIGN FACT SHEET Introduction 2010 sees Standard Chartered Bank unveil ‘Here for good’, its new worldwide brand platform and the first global positioning campaign produced by the Bank in 40 years. Here for good is an authentic expression of Standard Chartered’s values and aims to resonate with customers, clients and staff. It attests to the Bank’s commitment – to its customers and clients; to the communities and markets in which it operates; and to the way in which the Bank chooses to conduct its business. Developed with global creative partner TBWA, Here for good will deepen knowledge about who Standard Chartered is and what it stands for. Brand Belief Here for good is both a brand promise and a tagline. Although it can stand alone, it is also the last phrase in the Brand Belief – a powerful statement of purpose that questions, searches and redefines the traditional role of a bank, and lays out Standard Chartered’s brand promise. This script anchors the advertising campaign across print, television and online. Can a bank really stand for something? Can it balance its ambition with its conscience? To do what it must. Not what it can. As not everything in life that counts can be counted. Can it look not only at the profit it makes but how it makes that profit? And stand beside people, not above them. Where every solution depends on each person. Simply by doing good, can a bank in fact be great? In the many places we call home, our purpose remains the same.

    Film gatekeepers corp. presents… So this is China? Chinese cinema(s) distribution and circulation: between global markets, capitalist art-houses, and informal venues of resistance. By Rebeca Lucia Galindo B.Sc., Universidad Autónoma de Bucaramanga, 2009 Extended Essay Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Communication in Global Communication Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology Rebeca Lucia Galindo 2014 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2014 Approval Name: Rebeca Lucia Galindo Degree: Master of Arts (Communication) Title: Film gatekeepers corp. presents… So this is China? Chinese cinema(s) distribution and circulation: between global markets, capitalist art-houses, and informal venues of resistance Supervisory Committee: Program Director: Yuezhi Zhao Professor Katherine Reilly Senior Supervisor Professor Sun Yingchun Supervisor Communication University of China Date Defended/Approved: August 8, 2014 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract This paper argues that our access of Chinese films is mediated by politicized cannons, non-transparent global distribution patterns, and the commodified need of cultural audiovisual references. To observe how global distribution and circulation of Chinese cinemas materialize an exploratory case study was used to analyze those Chinese films that have been distributed in important art-houses in Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, and Peru in recent years. The analysis shows how distribution for that part of the global south is translocal and problematically rooted in European and U.S. hegemonic media capitals. This has implications for how we think about China’s ideological projection. Este documento argumenta que el acceso a los filmes chinos está mediado por cánones politizados, patrones globales no-transparentes y la necesidad comodificada de referencias culturales audiovisuales.

  • Contested Images of China, Japan, and Russia: Landscape and Language in Purple Sunset (2001)
    1-2 _________________________________________________________ Contested Images of China, Japan, and Russia: Landscape and Language in Purple Sunset (2001) Yingjin Zhang Abstract This paper analyzes the innovative ways in which film director Feng Xiaoning contests conventional images of China, Japan, and Russia and resituates racial identities at a life-and-death threshold at the end of WWII in Purple Sunset (2001). The spectacular natural landscape of Northeast China (or Manchuria) provides an unusual stage for three isolated human beings (a male Chinese laborer, a Japanese schoolgirl, and a female Russian soldier) who are lost in the wilderness and struggle to outsmart their enemies and outgrow their predesignated identities, and their different uses of language heighten the fragility of human communication and existence. The outcome is at once tragic and heroic, and the film succeeds in capturing the beauty of life and death and the contested nature of memory and identity. Keywords landscape, language, images, memory, China, Japan, Russia, war film Introduction: Staging the Purple Sunset Near the end of Purple Sunset (dir. Feng Xiaoning 2001), the battle is over, and Nadja (Anna Dzenilalova), a female Russian army nurse, admires the beautiful sunset—“Look at the sunset; it’s purple,” she says in Russian. Against the huge glowing sun, we see the silhouettes of Japanese POWs throwing down their guns one by one. The soundtrack switches to English as we hear a radio announcement: “After this inhuman war, peace returns to the world. All races, the white, the yellow, and the black of all beliefs can live together peacefully to build a new world.

  • The Film Works of Tian Zhuangzhuang Book Review
    TRANSMISSIONS: THE JOURNAL OF FILM AND MEDIA STUDIES 2018, VOL.3, NO. 1, PP. 89-93. Maciej Stasiowski Jagiellonian University Prayer Wheels for the Other: Haunted by the Images: the film works of Tian Zhuangzhuang book review There is a sequence in The Horse Thief (1986), in which an elderly Buddhist monk spins his prayer wheel, sitting in close proximity to a flock of Himalayan vultures feasting on a corpse. Seen separate at first, in the next shot both of these activities are filmed together. On the Tibetan plateau, balance is maintained – there is place for religious practice and for ravenous devouring. As another shot supersedes the scene, we take on Norbu’s perspective. Whether he beholds the spectacle from a distance is debatable. Is he really witnessing the non-event described above, or is he just blankly staring at the horizon, as he does so often? The director intends to keep his audience guessing, beguiling them into arranging images into a coherent narrative on their own and draw their own conclusions. Tian Zhuangzhuang’s cinema inhabits a niche that has been quite difficult to share with him. For all the facts, contexts, even story developments he decides to leave out, it offers sublime beauty that had drawn the attention of audiences worldwide, despite undergoing incredible hardships in the process of reaching them. The Blue Kite (1993), smuggled to Cannes, earned him not only a Grand Prix at the Tokyo International Film Festival in 1993, but a ten-year ban on making films. Nonetheless, in toto, his filmography – oscillating between arthouse “chamber pieces” and purely commercial ventures – remains confusing for critics and audiences alike, ever since his first “proper” films, from the robustly idiosyncratic On the Hunting Ground (1984), to his latest brash with heroic fantasy genre in The Warrior and the Wolf (2009).
