Download or read book The Ongoing Technological System written by Smaïl Aït-El-Hadjait and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The high level of innovation currently transforming our society and its technological dynamics can be seen as a second wave of innovation of the third technological system, which emerged in the late 1970s. This book discusses the concept of technological systems, focusing on the tools used for formalizing the organization of technology in society and its dynamics of evolution. The author uses these tools to characterize the contemporary technological system and to model its specific dynamics. In doing so, he raises questions about the continuity of the current technological system, and its capacity to generate powerful innovatory movements.
Download or read book Messiaen Perspectives 2 Techniques Influence and Reception written by Robert Fallon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on Messiaen’s relation to history - both his own and the history he engendered - the Messiaen Perspectives volumes convey the growing understanding of his deep and varied interconnections with his cultural milieux. Messiaen Perspectives 1: Sources and Influences examines the genesis, sources and cultural pressures that shaped Messiaen’s music. Messiaen Perspectives 2: Techniques, Influence and Reception analyses Messiaen’s compositional approach and the repercussions of his music. While each book offers a coherent collection in itself, together these complementary volumes elucidate how powerfully Messiaen was embedded in his time and place, and how his music resonates ever more today. Messiaen Perspectives 2: Techniques, Influence and Reception explores Messiaen’s imprint on recent musical life. The first part scrutinizes his compositional technique in terms of counterpoint, spectralism and later piano music, while the second charts ways in which Messiaen’s influence is manifest in the music and careers of Ohana, Xenakis, Murail and Quebecois composers. The third part includes case studies of Messiaen’s reception in Italy, Spain and the USA. The volume also includes an ornithological catalogue of Messiaen’s birds, collates information on the numerous ’tombeaux’ pieces he inspired, and concludes with a Critical Catalogue of Messiaen’s Musical Works.
Download or read book French Philosophy of Technology written by Sacha Loeve and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-28 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering an overall insight into the French tradition of philosophy of technology, this volume is meant to make French-speaking contributions more accessible to the international philosophical community. The first section, “Negotiating a Cultural Heritage,” presents a number of leading 20th century philosophical figures (from Bergson and Canguilhem to Simondon, Dagognet or Ellul) and intellectual movements (from Personalism to French Cybernetics and political ecology) that help shape philosophy of technology in the Francophone area, and feed into contemporary debates (ecology of technology, politics of technology, game studies). The second section, “Coining and Reconfiguring Technoscience,” traces the genealogy of this controversial concept and discusses its meanings and relevance. A third section, “Revisiting Anthropological Categories,” focuses on the relationships of technology with the natural and the human worlds from various perspectives that include anthropotechnology, Anthropocene, technological and vital norms and temporalities. The final section, “Innovating in Ethics, Design and Aesthetics,” brings together contributions that draw on various French traditions to afford fresh insights on ethics of technology, philosophy of design, techno-aesthetics and digital studies. The contributions in this volume are vivid and rich in original approaches that can spur exchanges and debates with other philosophical traditions.
Download or read book Semences et plants 2e d written by MACIEJEWSKI Jean and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Produire des semences et des plants certifiés, c’est concourir au progrès agricole que permet l’évolution constante de la génétique et de ses applications. Cinquante pour cent de la productivité des principales productions agricoles lui sont redevables. Cependant, la législation actuelle fait débat : en effet, elle tend à se durcir afin d’apporter des garanties pour l'utilisateur sur la qualité germinative, la pureté spécifique, la pureté variétale, l'état sanitaire, et à encadrer la production des semences commerciales. Cette nouvelle édition de Semences et plants a pour vocation de faire un point sur l’état actuel de la production de semences et de plants certifiés au vu des récentes évolutions de la réglementation. Les bases scientifiques et les données techniques inhérentes à cette production sont largement développées. Documenté et complet, cet ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants et aux formateurs de l’enseignement agricole, aux agents du développement agricole et aux agriculteurs – qu’ils soient multiplicateurs ou usagers – qui y trouveront les connaissances techniques et économiques qui leur sont indispensables.

Download or read book Business Model of an Informal Property Management Entreprise written by Arnaud Segla and published by The Wisemen Council. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Amaru is a proactive developer who has chosen to enter the Informal Property Management Company (EGII) sector. He now wishes to market his project for a Limited Liability Property Management Company in order to gain recognition for his talent and professionalism in administration. The project proposes to offer property management services on behalf of members of the Diaspora on the one hand. And, on the other hand, local people who don't have the time or the means to pay a professional real estate broker. The market for intermediation in real estate asset management is marked by legal risk and investment losses, but also by a great need for regularity, which is why we want to position ourselves as a facilitator for our target clientele, which is essentially made up of nationals from the Diaspora and wealthy middle-class local individuals with property to manage. Compared to the market, it has the advantage of being results-oriented, which enables us to grasp the need for reliable players with integrity. The business model aims to offer services ranging from rent collection, caretaking and housekeeping to site enhancement and development, using multi-skilled staff to guarantee the customer a facilitated property management experience. Sales will be facilitated by a marketing strategy emphasizing price flexibility for fair pricing according to risk.

Download or read book Messiaen s Musical Techniques The Composer s View and Beyond written by Gareth Healey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite Messiaen's position as one of the greatest technical innovators of the twentieth century, his musical language has not been comprehensively defined and investigated. The composer's 1944 theoretical study, The Technique of My Musical Language, expounds only its initial stages, and while his posthumously published Traité de rythme, de couleur, et d'ornithologie contains detailed explanations of selected techniques, in most cases the reader is left to define these more precisely by observing them in the context of Messiaen's analyses of his own works. Technical processes are nevertheless in many cases the primary components of a work or movement. For instance, personnages dominate 'Joie du sang des étoiles' from the Turangalîla-symphonie, and in certain cases, such as 'L'échange' from the Vingt regards sur l'Enfant-Jésus, the process (asymmetric augmentation) is the only structuring element present. Given this reliance on idiosyncratic techniques, clear comprehension of the music is impossible without a detailed knowledge of Messiaen's methods. Gareth Healey charts their development and interconnections, considers their relationship with formal structures, and applies them in refined and extended form to works for which Messiaen himself left no published analysis.
Download or read book The Emergence of Pressure Blade Making written by Pierre M. Desrosiers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human development is a long and steady process that began with stone tool making. Because of this skill, humans were able to adapt to climate changes, discover new territories, and invent new technologies. "Pressure knapping" is the common term for one method of creating stone tools, where a larger device or blade specifically made for this purpose is use to press out the stone tool. Pressure knapping was invented in different locations and at different points in time, representing the adoption of the Neolithic way of life in the Old world. Recent research on pressure knapping has led for the first time to a global thesis on this technique. The contributors to this seminal work combine research findings on pressure knapping from different cultures around the globe to develope a cohesive theory. This contributions to this volume represents a significant development to research on pressure knapping, as well as the field of lithic studies in general. This work will be an important reference for anyone studying the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic periods, lithic studies, technologies, and more generally, cultural transmission.
