virtuell
Die als Sog empfundenen kulturellen Produkte unserer Zeit wollen in den verschiedensten Formen konsumiert und diskutiert werden, wer welche Erfahrungshorizonte genießt, bestimmt hier jedoch die Kaufkraft. Das Global Village als Gated Community erzeugt und reproduziert Hierarchien, deren Dekonstruktion und Reflexion an ein emanzipatorisches Konzept des Virtuellen gebunden ist. Losgelöst von Materialität und Kostenpunkt einer Virtual Reality-Brille widmet sich SYN #15 "virtuell" dem, was denkbar ist, erfahrbar gemacht wird.
Remote and Hybrid Work
In Remote and Hybrid Work: What Everyone Needs to Know(R), long-time remote work scholar and consultant Barbara Z. Larson provides an accessible and critical resource for understanding the remote and virtual workplace, and how to lead in this new work environment. Remote and hybrid work have become defining features of the twenty-first century workplace, and affect almost all of us, including those who work daily in the office. As many people discover the benefits and challenges of working from home, co-workers are contending with emptier offices and virtual teams, managers are learning how to lead from a distance, and businesses and governments are working through the policy implications of...
Der Betrachter von der Kette gelassen - Robert Bressons "Au hasard Balthazar"
Robert Bressons uvre ist nicht nur von spiritueller und religiöser Tiefe, es fasziniert auch hinsichtlich seiner filmästhetischen Formierung. Dabei gilt "Au hasard Balthazar" (1966) vielen Kennern als Bressons Meisterwerk schlechthin, entfaltet der Film doch im basalen Handlungsstrang eine "Passionsgeschichte" ganz ungewöhnlicher Art: den Leidensweg des Esels Balthazar. Susanne H. Kolter verknüpft in ihrer Studie diese theologische Dimension mit einer luziden Analyse der Bressonschen Ästhetik, die einerseits geprägt ist durch ein "fragmentarisches Prinzip" und andererseits durch die Affinität des Regisseurs zur Malerei. All dies stellt Kolter in die Perspektive des offenen Kunstwerks ein, das den Betrachter ganz bewusst von der Kette lässt.

Intonational Phonology
This second edition presents a completely revised overview of research on intonational phonology since the 1970s, including new material on research developments since the mid 1990s. It contains a new section discussing the research on the alignment of pitch features that has developed since the first edition was published, a substantially rewritten section on ToBI transcription that takes account of the application of ToBI principles to other languages, and new sections on the phonetic research on accent and focus. The substantive chapters on the analysis and transcription of pitch contours, pitch range, sentence stress and prosodic structure have been reorganised and updated. In addition, there is an associated website with sound files of the example sentences discussed in the book. This well-known study will continue to appeal to researchers and graduate students who work on any aspect of intonation.
