Download or read book The Aelectrosonic Kontraste Cahier 1 written by Douglas Kahn and published by Sonic Acts Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘What is the nature of electronic music?’, asks Douglas Kahn, Professor at the National Institute for Experimental Arts at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, in his essay for The Aelectrosonic. He locates his answer in the ‘corresponding nature for electronic music found in the physical nature of electricity and electromagnetism’, what he calls, ‘The Aeloctrosonic’. Found, as he writes, ‘Apart from the crack of lightning and its echo in thunder’, but also ‘in atmospheric electricity and the sound of the auroras’. This is the starting point for The Aelectrosonic, the first Kontraste Cahier. The small publication contains the titular essay that locates the roots of electronic music in the 19th century when Thomas Watson listened in to the sounds of the telephone wires by Douglas Kahn and an introductory text by Arie Altena.

Download or read book The Private Science of Louis Pasteur written by Gerald L. Geison and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Private Science of Louis Pasteur, Gerald Geison has written a controversial biography that finally penetrates the secrecy that has surrounded much of this legendary scientist's laboratory work. Geison uses Pasteur's laboratory notebooks, made available only recently, and his published papers to present a rich and full account of some of the most famous episodes in the history of science and their darker sides--for example, Pasteur's rush to develop the rabies vaccine and the human risks his haste entailed. The discrepancies between the public record and the "private science" of Louis Pasteur tell us as much about the man as they do about the highly competitive and political world he learned to master. Although experimental ingenuity served Pasteur well, he also owed much of his success to the polemical virtuosity and political savvy that won him unprecedented financial support from the French state during the late nineteenth century. But a close look at his greatest achievements raises ethical issues. In the case of Pasteur's widely publicized anthrax vaccine, Geison reveals its initial defects and how Pasteur, in order to avoid embarrassment, secretly incorporated a rival colleague's findings to make his version of the vaccine work. Pasteur's premature decision to apply his rabies treatment to his first animal-bite victims raises even deeper questions and must be understood not only in terms of the ethics of human experimentation and scientific method, but also in light of Pasteur's shift from a biological theory of immunity to a chemical theory--similar to ones he had often disparaged when advanced by his competitors. Through his vivid reconstruction of the professional rivalries as well as the national adulation that surrounded Pasteur, Geison places him in his wider cultural context. In giving Pasteur the close scrutiny his fame and achievements deserve, Geison's book offers compelling reading for anyone interested in the social and ethical dimensions of science.
