Det danske performanceteater Hotel Pro Forma har siden grundlæggelsen i 1985 dyrket samspillet mellem arkitektur, musik, bevægelse og ord ud fra billedkunstneriske principper og har med sit markante æstetiske formsprog fået en fremtrædende plads i det danske og internationale teaterlandskab. Hotel Pro Forma er især kendt for at eksperimentere med avanceret lyssætning og anden moderne teknologi i iscenesættelsen. I hele Hotel Pro Formas levetid har Kirsten Dehlholm været kunstnerisk leder for teatret, der fungerer som atelier, laboratorium og produktionsselskab. Det har gennem 30 år konstant afsøgt nye veje i spændingsfeltet mellem performance, billedkunst, installation og opera. Skønhedens Hotel belyser en række forestillinger, der udvider forståelsen af begrebet scenekunst. 17 forskere går i denne bog tæt på værkernes kunstneriske virkemidler og de kunstneriske processer og fokuserer på relationerne mellem teori og praksis. Det hele hænger sammen i en Hotel Pro Forma-forestilling, men ikke altid, som vi forventer.
The first biography of the noted Soviet pianist Sviatoslav Richter
Data Ethics of Power takes a reflective and fresh look at the ethical implications of transforming everyday life and the world through the effortless, costless, and seamless accumulation of extra layers of data. By shedding light on the constant tensions that exist between ethical principles and the interests invested in this socio-technical transformation, the book bridges the theory and practice divide in the study of the power dynamics that underpin these processes of the digitalization of the world.
The bastard step-child of Milton Friedman and Anthony Bourdain, Socialism Sucks is a bar-crawl through former, current, and wannabe socialist countries around the world. Free market economists Robert Lawson and Benjamin Powell travel to countries like Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, and Sweden to investigate the dangers and idiocies of socialism—while drinking a lot of beer.
Contrastive Linguistics, roughly defined as a subdiscipline of linguistics which is concerned with the comparison of two or more (subsystems of) languages, has long been associated primarily with language teaching. Apart from this applied aspect, however, it also has a strong theoretical purpose, contributing to our understanding of language typology and language universals. Issues in theoretical CL, which also feature in this volume, are the choice of model, the notions of equivalence and contrast, and directionality of descriptions. Languages used for illustration in this volume include English, German, Danish, and Polish.
