Download or read book Doing the Time Warp written by Sarah Taylor Ellis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing the Time Warp explores how song and dance – sites of aesthetic difference in the musical – can 'warp' time and enable marginalized and semi-marginalized fans to imagine different ways of being in the world. While the musical is a bastion of mainstream theatrical culture, it also supports a fan culture of outsiders who dream themselves into being in the strange, liminal timespaces of its musical numbers. Through analysing musicals of stage and screen – ranging from Rent to Ragtime, Glee to Taylor Mac's A 24-Decade History of Popular Music – Sarah Taylor Ellis investigates how alienated subjects find moments of coherence and connection in musical theatre's imaginaries of song and dance. Exploring an array of archival work and live performance, such as Larry Gelbart's papers in the UCLA Performing Arts Collections and the shadowcast performances of Los Angeles's Sins o' the Flesh, Doing the Time Warp probes the politics of musicals and consider show the genre's 'strange temporalities' can point towards new futurities for identities and communities in difference.

Download or read book Time Warped written by Claudia Hammond and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are obsessed with time. However hard we might try, it is almost impossible to spend even one day without the marker of a clock. But how much do we understand about time, and is it possible to retrain our brains and improve our relationship with it? Drawing on the latest research from the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and biology, and using original research on the way memory shapes our understanding of time, acclaimed writer and broadcaster Claudia Hammond delves into the mysteries of time perception. Along the way, she introduces us to an extraordinary array of colourful characters willing to go to great lengths in the interests of research, such as the French speleologist Michel, who spends two months in an ice cave in complete darkness. Time Warped shows us how to manage our time more efficiently, speed time up and slow it down at will, plan for the future with more accuracy, and, ultimately, use the warping of time to our own advantage.
Download or read book Future Science Does the Time Warp written by Rodney Bartlett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-12-18 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These ideas started making themselves at home in my brain 30 or 40 years ago. But the ideas' arrivals have been much more detailed and frequent since I discovered the science website vixra.org at the start of 2012. I'm not a professional of any kind - just your average citizen, with a burning desire to understand how everything works (my main interest is cosmology).* I can't say I've been originating the ideas presented here. My feeling as I typed these thoughts has always been that they already exist (though, since physics' Unification appears to connect every point and time in the Cosmos, not on early 21st-century Earth in every case). And I'm just a student, learning about them. * It doesn't matter that I'm not a professional scientist. Keep the following words said in 2015 by scientist Professor Neil Turok in mind - "We need a very different view of basic physics. This is the time for radical, new ideas." He believes this is a great time in human history for the revolution to occur.

Download or read book Now and Then We Time Travel written by Fraser A. Sherman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 400 films and 150 television series have featured time travel--stories of rewriting history, lovers separated by centuries, journeys to the past or the (often dystopian) future. This book examines some of the roles time travel plays on screen in science fiction and fantasy. Plot synopses and credits are listed for films and TV series from England, Canada, the UK and Japan, as well as for TV and films from elsewhere in the world. Tropes and plot elements are highlighted. The author discusses philosophical questions about time travel, such as the logic of timelines, causality (what's to keep time-travelers from jumping back and correcting every mistake?) and morality (if you correct a mistake, are you still guilty of it?).

Download or read book When Time Warps written by Megan Burke and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inquiry into the phenomenology of “woman” based in the relationship between lived time and sexual violence Feminist phenomenologists have long understood a woman’s life as inhibited, confined, and constrained by sexual violence. In this important inquiry, author Megan Burke both builds and expands on this legacy by examining the production of normative womanhood through racist tropes and colonial domination. Ultimately, Burke charts a new feminist phenomenology based in the relationship between lived time and sexual violence. By focusing on time instead of space, When Time Warps places sexualized racism at the center of the way “woman” is lived. Burke transports questions of time and gender outside the realm of the historical, making provocative new insights into how gendered individuals live time, and how their temporal existence is changed through particular experiences. Providing a potent reexamination of the theory of Simone de Beauvoir—while also bringing to the fore important women of color theorists and engaging in the temporal aspects of #MeToo—When Time Warps makes a necessary, lasting contribution to our understanding of gender, race, and sexual violence.
