Este está dividido em duas partes: na primeira o autor trata de maneira minuciosa do acorde de nona aumentada presente em Vier Lieder Op. 2 do compositor Alban Berg (1885-1935). Abordando este acorde de diversas maneiras, o autor propõe que sua origem está na estrutura intervalar do acorde de Tristão. Na segunda parte, o autor apresenta uma recapitulação das propriedades do sistema tonal a partir das ideias de Ferdinand de Saussure (1857- 1913) e de Roman Jakobson (1896-1982), para construir um método de composição que forneça de modo inovador uma referencialidade à escuta semelhante àquela que ocorre no sistema tonal.
O mundo mudou. O mundo sempre muda. Perpetuum Mobile: expressão latina para designar movimento infinito. E nesse novo mundo, a música clássica, erudita, é completamente dispensável. O efeito que Mahler produzia com centenas de músicos pode ser alcançado com um DJ e uma caixa de som. Sorry, it’s over, a música clássica morreu! Os moralistas músicos de conservatório aliados aos burgueses da arte contemporânea dirão: É o fim da Música! A raça humana está cada vez mais estúpida, não há nem modulações na música de mercado! . Não passam de copistas, escribas com raiva de Gutenberg. Para que modular? Se fosse preciso, os músicos pop o fariam! Acreditem, eles não são nad...
This extremely practical introduction to musical analysis explores the factors that give unity and coherence to musical masterpieces. Having first identified and explained the most important analytical methods, Nicholas Cook examines given compositions from the last two hundred years to show how different analytical procedures suit different types of music.
The five-volume set IFIP AICT 630, 631, 632, 633, and 634 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International IFIP WG 5.7 Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems, APMS 2021, held in Nantes, France, in September 2021.* The 378 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 529 submissions. They discuss artificial intelligence techniques, decision aid and new and renewed paradigms for sustainable and resilient production systems at four-wall factory and value chain levels. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Part I: artificial intelligence based optimization techniques for demand-driven manufacturing; hybrid approaches for production pl...
This work focuses on the experience of a Brazilian cassava starch agro-industry in developing its technological capabilities since 1917, when it was first established. Its main purpose is to explore how the process of technological progress which occurred along with that industrialization, especially regarding the starch industry, has been determined by the following variables: I) the pattern of capital accumulation, II) the capability of the related technical base to both the promotion or absorption of technological changes, and III) firms' strategies towards innovation.

Umberto Eco published his first novel, The Name of the Rose, in 1980, when he was nearly fifty. In these “confessions,” the author, now in his late seventies, looks back on his long career as a theorist and his more recent work as a novelist, and explores their fruitful conjunction. He begins by exploring the boundary between fiction and nonfiction—playfully, seriously, brilliantly roaming across this frontier. Good nonfiction, he believes, is crafted like a whodunnit, and a skilled novelist builds precisely detailed worlds through observation and research. Taking us on a tour of his own creative method, Eco recalls how he designed his fictional realms. He began with specific images, m...
This books is the product of research conducted in the Brazilian Border with Bolívia in 2013, where a migrant temporary shelter hosted, under a humanitarian visa, hundreds of Haitians that had fled several stages of human insecurity back in their homeland. In order to survive and with the dream of leaving soon, migrants strategise their relationships and harnest social navigation skills. This fieldwork was part of the Master of Social and Cultural Anthropology programa at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, for which the author was granted a VU Scholarship.
