Download or read book Kristian Schuller Anton s Berlin written by Nadine Barth and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stylish, beautifully designed portrait of Berlin's bohemia In this striking hardcover volume, Romanian German fashion photographer Kristian Schuller (born 1970) presents his personal vision of the characters who epitomized Berlin's legendary nightlife--artists, actors, musicians and unclassifiable eccentrics. Whether in the studio or in the gardens of Berlin, these photographs foreground the multifaceted and fluid Berlin that is continuously reinventing itself. In one image shot on the green grass of a cemetery, a taut male model rests on his arms and upper body, appearing serene. Meanwhile his legs kick high above him, enveloped in poppy-red cloth that seems to grow out of him in a mycological fashion. Styled by his frequent collaborator and wife, Peggy Schuller, such images display the energy, strangeness and elegance that Schuller brings to this work and to his assignments for clients such as Vogue and Harper's Bazaar.
Download or read book Nicholas Nixon written by Jordan Alves and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der amerikanische Fotograf Nicholas Nixon ist für seine großformatigen Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografien bekannt, in denen er eine besondere Verbindung zu den Betrachtenden herstellt und sie an intimen Momenten im Leben teilhaben lässt. Für seine wohl ikonischste Serie, The Brown Sisters, begleitete er vier Schwestern über 46 Jahre hinweg. Seine Praxis umfasst jedoch ein viel breiteres Spektrum, etwa das einfache Leben im Süden der USA oder Landschaftsporträts der rohen industriellen Gegenden rund um Detroit. Ausgehend vom Aspekt der Intimität gibt die Monografie einen erstmaligen Überblick über Nixons Œuvre. Sie ist eine Reise durch das Leben und Werk des Künstlers – einerseits aus der Ferne, andererseits intim und nah – und zeigt auch neue, bislang unveröffentlichte Fotografien.
Download or read book Computational Paralinguistics written by Björn Schuller and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the methods, tools and techniques that are currently being used to recognise (automatically) the affect, emotion, personality and everything else beyond linguistics (‘paralinguistics’) expressed by or embedded in human speech and language. It is the first book to provide such a systematic survey of paralinguistics in speech and language processing. The technology described has evolved mainly from automatic speech and speaker recognition and processing, but also takes into account recent developments within speech signal processing, machine intelligence and data mining. Moreover, the book offers a hands-on approach by integrating actual data sets, software, and open-source utilities which will make the book invaluable as a teaching tool and similarly useful for those professionals already in the field. Key features: Provides an integrated presentation of basic research (in phonetics/linguistics and humanities) with state-of-the-art engineering approaches for speech signal processing and machine intelligence. Explains the history and state of the art of all of the sub-fields which contribute to the topic of computational paralinguistics. C overs the signal processing and machine learning aspects of the actual computational modelling of emotion and personality and explains the detection process from corpus collection to feature extraction and from model testing to system integration. Details aspects of real-world system integration including distribution, weakly supervised learning and confidence measures. Outlines machine learning approaches including static, dynamic and context‐sensitive algorithms for classification and regression. Includes a tutorial on freely available toolkits, such as the open-source ‘openEAR’ toolkit for emotion and affect recognition co-developed by one of the authors, and a listing of standard databases and feature sets used in the field to allow for immediate experimentation enabling the reader to build an emotion detection model on an existing corpus.
Download or read book William Mullan Odd Apples Special Edition written by and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A limited, large-format edition of this gorgeous study of apples, featuring a print from the series This large-format (9 x 11.25 inches) special edition of New York photographer William Mullan's (born 1989) Odd Applesincludes a print of the photograph titled Hidden Rosehoused in a pergamin paper sleeve inserted in the book. Mullan's obsession with apples began when he saw his first Egremont Russet at a Waitrose grocery store outside of London. Fascinated by its gnarled, potato-like appearance and shockingly fresh, nutty flavor, Mullan began searching for, and photographing, rare apple varieties. In Odd Apples, each apple is lovingly rendered and styled according to its individual "personality"--a combination of its looks and its flavors. The apples are set against complementary brightly colored backdrops; they are peeled or unpeeled, cut or whole, skin shriveled or perfectly smooth and shiny. Mullan embraces each apple's idiosyncratic aesthetic qualities completely.
Download or read book Multi Modal Sentiment Analysis written by Hua Xu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-26 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The natural interaction ability between human and machine mainly involves human-machine dialogue ability, multi-modal sentiment analysis ability, human-machine cooperation ability, and so on. To enable intelligent computers to have multi-modal sentiment analysis ability, it is necessary to equip them with a strong multi-modal sentiment analysis ability during the process of human-computer interaction. This is one of the key technologies for efficient and intelligent human-computer interaction. This book focuses on the research and practical applications of multi-modal sentiment analysis for human-computer natural interaction, particularly in the areas of multi-modal information feature representation, feature fusion, and sentiment classification. Multi-modal sentiment analysis for natural interaction is a comprehensive research field that involves the integration of natural language processing, computer vision, machine learning, pattern recognition, algorithm, robot intelligent system, human-computer interaction, etc. Currently, research on multi-modal sentiment analysis in natural interaction is developing rapidly. This book can be used as a professional textbook in the fields of natural interaction, intelligent question answering (customer service), natural language processing, human-computer interaction, etc. It can also serve as an important reference book for the development of systems and products in intelligent robots, natural language processing, human-computer interaction, and related fields.

Download or read book Faces of Talent written by Till Brönner and published by TeNeues. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In true Blue Note tradition the cover of Till Bronner's self-titled 2012 album is in itself a work of art. The musician--who had played with Natalie Cole and Dave Brubeck before he became a celebrity himself--enjoys being photographed by star photographer Andreas H. Bitesnich, resulting in portraits that are cool but without a hint of artificiality. Bronner is not only one of the best and most successful jazz trumpet players of our time, but he also has a special relationship with the visual arts. Since the moment he received his first Leica camera, he discovered a love of photography and is turning the tables. He captures internationally famous musicians and actors from Beth Ditto to Armin Muller-Stahl, David Guetta to Gregory Porter. Because of his musical background, Bronner has the necessary feeling for timing and the right orchestration. His photographic style is spare and no method is an end in itself. The result: impressive black-and-white portraits that reveal unknown sides of familiar faces. When viewing these images you can immediately sense that there is a special relationship between the photographer and his subjects-- making these photos exceptionally compelling. SELLING POINTS: This successful jazz musician shows us another exciting facet of his artistic talent Till Bronner's photographs will be honoured in an exhibition at the September 2014 Photokina Fair in Cologne, Germany An illustrated book that will enrapture music fans and photography lovers alike 120 duotone photographs

Download or read book Cl mentine Deliss written by Clémentine Deliss and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For quite some time now, ethnographic museums in Europe have been compelled to legitimate themselves. Their exhibition-making has become a topic of discussion, as has the contentious history of their collections, which have come about through colonial appropriation. Clearly, this cannot continue. That the situation can be different is something that Clémentine Deliss explores in her current publication. She offers an intriguing mix of autobiographically-informed novel and conceptual thesis on contemporary art and anthropology. Reflections on her own work while she was Director of Frankfurt's Weltkulturen Museum (Museum of World Cultures) are interwoven with the explorations of influential filmmakers, artists and writers. She introduces the Metabolic Museum as an interventionist laboratory for remediating ethnographic collections for future generations. CLÉMENTINE DELISS has achieved international renown as a curator, cultural historian and publisher of artist's books. In her role as Director of the Weltkulturen Museum in Frankfurt, as a curator, and as a professor and researcher at eminent institutes and academies, she focuses on transdisciplinary and transcultural exchanges. She is Associate Curator of KW Berlin and Guest Professor at the Academy of Arts, Hamburg.

Download or read book Israel a Photobiography written by Micha Bar-Am and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As spectacular and moving as Bar-Am's photos are, Thomas L. Friedman's compelling essay provides an anchor in the form of an eloquent reflection on the unfolding of the first fifty years. Israel's contributions to politics and culture, to religion and commerce, have made a tremendous mark on the world, and these issues Friedman addresses with the perception of an outsider who has spent almost a quarter of his life in the area. While Bar-Am's photos show us the events that have shaped Israel's path, Friedman's essay explores the implications of Israel's first fifty years and the nation's powerful struggle between its past and its future.
