Download or read book Mannequins in Museums written by Bridget R. Cooks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mannequins in Museums is a collection of historical and contemporary case studies that examine how mannequins are presented in exhibitions and shows that, as objects used for storytelling, they are not neutral objects. Demonstrating that mannequins have long histories of being used to promote colonialism, consumerism, and racism, the book shows how these histories inform their use. It also engages readers in a conversation about how historical narratives are expressed in museums through mannequins as surrogate forms. Written by a select group of curators and art historians, the volume provides insight into a variety of museum contexts, including art, history, fashion, anthropology and wax. Drawing on exhibition case studies from North America, South Africa, and Europe, each chapter discusses the pedagogical and aesthetic stakes involved in representing racial difference and cultural history through mannequins. As a whole, the book will assist readers to understand the history of mannequins and their contemporary use as culturally relevant objects. Mannequins in Museums will be compelling reading for academics and students in the fields of museum studies, art history, public history, anthropology and visual and cultural studies. It should also be essential reading for museum professionals who are interested in rethinking mannequin display techniques.

Download or read book Richard Phillips written by Marcus Steinweg and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first monograph on New York-based contemporary artist Richard Phillips, best known for his large-scale paintings that are ultracool in execution and very hot in effect. Richard Phillips's hyperrealistic oil paintings embody themes as broad as power, politics, celebrity, fashion, ideology, beauty, and sex, and pose questions about the status of painting today: Does the medium remain valid, or has it become a historical pastime? Pornography, propaganda, advertising, entertainment, fashion--Phillips incorporates material from a range of sources to confront what is at the core of contemporary image making, from the power of celebrity branding to complicity between viewer and viewed. The book's exploitative design strategy celebrates the commercial and fashion alliances of the artist's practice, while revealing the complex politics behind the imagery the artist chooses to paint.

Download or read book Speech Production and Speech Modelling written by W.J. Hardcastle and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1990-06-30 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speech sound production is one of the most complex human activities: it is also one of the least well understood. This is perhaps not altogether surprising as many of the complex neurological and physiological processes involved in the generation and execution of a speech utterance remain relatively inaccessible to direct investigation, and must be inferred from careful scrutiny of the output of the system -from details of the movements of the speech organs themselves and the acoustic consequences of such movements. Such investigation of the speech output have received considerable impetus during the last decade from major technological advancements in computer science and biological transducing, making it possible now to obtain large quantities of quantative data on many aspects of speech articulation and acoustics relatively easily. Keeping pace with these advancements in laboratory techniques have been developments in theoretical modelling of the speech production process. There are now a wide variety of different models available, reflecting the different disciplines involved -linguistics, speech science and technology, engineering and acoustics. The time seems ripe to attempt a synthesis of these different models and theories and thus provide a common forum for discussion of the complex problem of speech production. Such an activity would seem particularly timely also for those colleagues in speech technology seeking better, more accurate phonetic models as components in their speech synthesis and automatic speech recognition systems.

Download or read book Robust Process Mining with Guarantees written by Sander J. J. Leemans and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-25 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents techniques for process discovery, conformance checking and enhancement. For process discovery, it introduces the Inductive Miner framework: a recursive skeleton for discovery techniques that in itself provides several guarantees. The framework is instantiated in several concrete discovery techniques, each of which targets a specific challenge of process discovery, such as incompleteness of information or noisy behavior. For conformance checking, it introduces the Projected Conformance Checking framework, which focuses on speed, but nevertheless provides several guarantees, such as that for certain classes of models, it can decide language equivalence. For enhancement, it introduces the Inductive visual Miner, a well-polished end-user focused tool that includes process discovery, conformance checking and that can visualize performance on a discovered model, all without any user input.
