This book was released on 2006 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La musique, en tout cas la classique - nous ne le cachons pas -, est morte. Tout comme l'art - en tout cas l'art classique - est mort. Mais il y a plusieurs manières de mourir pour l'art - et donc pour la musique. L'une est de se voir progressivement substituer soit propre négatif autodérisoire, dont la fonction (ludico-critique) est alors d'exhiber ce que nous ne voulons ni voir ni entendre. L'autre est de mourir à la mode hégélienne, celle qui consiste à se conserver tout en se dépassant, c'est-à-dire à se " sublimer ". Toutefois, une exception se fait jour. A côté des dérélictions faciles et de la sublimation diffuse et partout répandue qui fait de l'art d'aujourd'hui un " art à l'état gazeux ", il est encore permis de trouver dans la musique, si l'on peut ainsi s'exprimer, un noyau solide : les œuvres majeures du XXe siècle - celles qui relèvent du " nouvel esprit musical " - pointent en direction d'une théorie axiomatique des espaces sonores, dont les chercheurs explorent des modèles possibles. L'existence de cette musique " nouménale " nous a semblé pouvoir inspirer une nouvelle philosophie. Car, si l'art (classique) est mort, la philosophie (traditionnelle) ne peut pas vivre encore bien longtemps, sinon de cette vie de mort-vivant qui est celle de l'art (classique). Nous lui avons cherché un avenir plus heureux, qui la fît échapper à la pétrification muséale comme à la dégénérescence communicationnelle. Mais dans une époque où, pour parler le langage du XIXe. siècle, la participation de l'activité de l'individu à l' " œuvre totale de l'esprit " s'est désormais réduite à rien ou presque, nous ne pouvons guère nous bercer d'illusions. La philosophie, aujourd'hui délocalisée (à l'image des entreprises multinationales et des produits esthétisés qu'elles fabriquent), est probablement déjà, elle aussi, à l'état gazeux. Nous avons tenté, très modestement, de refroidir si peu que ce soit cette transparente vapeur, d'amorcer, si possible, une légère recondensation.

It is a state-of-the-art source of cutting-edge studies in the new interdisciplinary field of universal logic. The papers touch upon a wide range of topics including combination of logic, non-classical logic, square and other geometrical figures of opposition, categorical logic, set theory, foundation of logic, philosophy and history of logic (Aristotle, Avicenna, Buridan, Schröder, MacColl). This book offers new perspectives and challenges in the study of logic and will be of interest to all students and researchers interested the nature and future of logic.
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 Mathematics and Music written by Gerard Assayag and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-07-10 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Western Civilization Mathematics and Music have a long and interesting history in common, with several interactions, traditionally associated with the name of Pythagoras but also with a significant number of other mathematicians, like Leibniz, for instance. Mathematical models can be found for almost all levels of musical activities from composition to sound production by traditional instruments or by digital means. Modern music theory has been incorporating more and more mathematical content during the last decades. This book offers a journey into recent work relating music and mathematics. It contains a large variety of articles, covering the historical aspects, the influence of logic and mathematical thought in composition, perception and understanding of music and the computational aspects of musical sound processing. The authors illustrate the rich and deep interactions that exist between Mathematics and Music.

Download or read book Current of Music written by Theodor W. Adorno and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fleeing the Nazis, Theodor W. Adorno lived in New York City as a refugee from 1938 until 1941. During these years, he was intensively involved in a study of how the recently developed techniques for the nation-wide transmission of music over radio were transforming the perception of music itself. This broad ranging radio research was conceived as nothing less than an investigation, partly empirical, of Walter Benjamin's speculative claims for the emancipatory potential of art in the age of its mechanical reproduction. The results of Adorno's project set him decisively at odds with Benjamin's theses and at the same time became the body of thinking that formed the basis for Adornos own aesthetics in his Philosophy of New Music. Current of Music is the title that Adorno himself gave to this research project. For complex reasons, however, Adorno was not able to bring the several thousands of pages of this massive study, most of it written in English, to a final form prior to leaving New York for California, where he would immediately begin work with Max Horkheimer on the Dialectic of Enlightenment. Robert Hullot-Kentor, the distinguished Adorno scholar, reconstructed Adorno's project for the Adorno Archive in Germany and provides a lengthy and informative introduction to the fragmentary texts collected in this volume. Current of Music will be widely discussed for the light it throws on the development of Adorno's thought, on his complex relationship with Walter Benjamin, but most of all for the important perspectives it provides on questions of popular culture, the music of industrial entertainment, the history of radio and the social dimensions of the reproduction of art.

Download or read book Music and the Occult written by Joscelyn Godwin and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is an adventure into the unexplored territory of French esoteric philosophies and their relation to music. Occultism and esotericism flourished in nineteenth-century France as they did nowhere else. Many philosophers sought the key to the universe, some claimed to have found it, and, in the unitive vision that resulted, music invariably played an important part. These modern Pythagoreans all believed in the Harmony of the Spheres and in the powerful effects of music on the human soul and body. Faced with the challenge of the rationalist Enlightenment, then with that of modern scientism, they adapted their occultism to the prevailing style ... A widely published musicologist and authority on esotericism, Godwin is able to give a clear and concise context for these philosophers' often surprising beliefs, and he demonstrates how this "speculative music" influenced composers such as Satie and Debussy, who were familiar with occultism. His long study of music and the Western esoteric tradition makes him uniquely qualified to unravel the strange story of these forgotten sages."--Publisher's description.
