Download or read book Hitchcock s Motifs written by Michael Walker and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the abundant Alfred Hitchcock literature, Hitchcock's Motifs has found a fresh angle. Starting from recurring objects, settings, character-types and events, Michael Walker tracks some forty motifs, themes and clusters across the whole of Hitchcock's oeuvre, including not only all his 52 extant feature films but also representative episodes from his TV series. Connections and deeper inflections that Hitchcock fans may have long sensed or suspected can now be seen for what they are: an intricately spun web of cross-references which gives this unique artist's work the depth, consistency and resonance that justifies Hitchcock's place as probably the best know film director ever. The title, the first book-length study of the subject, can be used as a mini-encyclopaedia of Hitchcock's motifs, but the individual entries also give full attention to the wider social contexts, hidden sources and the sometimes unconscious meanings present in the work and solidly linking it to its time and place.

Download or read book Discovery of Ill Known Motifs in Time Series Data written by Sahar Deppe and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes a novel motif discovery for time series, KITE (ill-Known motIf discovery in Time sEries data), to identify ill-known motifs transformed by affine mappings such as translation, uniform scaling, reflection, stretch, and squeeze mappings. Additionally, such motifs may be covered with noise or have variable lengths. Besides KITE’s contribution to motif discovery, new avenues for the signal and image processing domains are explored and created. The core of KITE is an invariant representation method called Analytic Complex Quad Tree Wavelet Packet transform (ACQTWP). This wavelet transform applies to motif discovery as well as to several signal and image processing tasks. The efficiency of KITE is demonstrated with data sets from various domains and compared with state-of-the-art algorithms, where KITE yields the best outcomes.

Or multiple motifs can be added together to make something larger, including a scarf or a placemat. By stitching even more motifs together, you can even create a wrap or an afghan. The designs that can be made using motifs are limitless. As an extra bonus, the book contains symbol crochet for each motif and design. The four designs are a scarf, a hat, a cowl, and a blanket. All motifs and projects can be made using Plymouth Encore worsted-weight yarn.

Download or read book Motifs of Life Altering Experiences written by Dr. Don J. Feeney Jr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-04-14 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manuscript reveals dynamics of life altering experiences as collaborative products of unwitting entrainents. Unwitting entrainments synchronizing our Motifs can emerge into Life Altering Experiences. The manuscript strives to depict the ironic timing of synchronized entrainment present in perfect harmony. Taking two extra minutes drinking a Starbuck's coffee saves a life creating just enough delay missing the 9-11 tragedy. Addictions, divorce, financial ruin, damaged careers, can all result from unwitting entraining of synchronoized Motifs. Fortuitous as well as disastrous coincidence of synchronizing events are possible outcomes of life altering experiences. Formativeness of multifaceted motifs lie at the core of good and evil manefestations of events affecting trauma and triumph. Recognition and utilization techniques through time alteration of furture designs highlight multi-dimensional consciousness of critical factors in survival and transformation.
