Book Tomorrow s Sights and Sounds

Download or read book Tomorrow s Sights and Sounds written by Albert F. Schmid and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-10-02 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Body language, music, visual displays, and even different sounds are methods of communication, but words still remain the primary method for transfer of thought. Perhaps someday in the future, humans will be able to exchange information from the brain to another person directly. But for now, we are generally limited to our language and the fragile and imprecise medium of words. The basic problem with words is that they mean different things to different people. In his teaching, Jesus used a method of using words to convey a lesson, called a parable, an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. Trying to understand or to define words is often no easy task and occasionally requires a unique methodology to accomplish the purpose. Tomorrows Sights and Sounds attempts to demonstrate an effective use of words by definition, poetry, devotionals, lessons, and a review of holidays and their religious connection. God has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8)

Book Rare Astronomical Sights and Sounds

Download or read book Rare Astronomical Sights and Sounds written by Jonathan Powell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-17 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​The universe contains many unusual sights and sounds, most of which are either very difficult to witness or simply go unnoticed. With the right tools, time, and location, some of the often talked about but seldom seen and heard gems in our skies can finally be observed. This book introduces readers to the rare and ephemeral happenings above our heads. It offers a crash course in astronomical history, detailing the observations, assumptions, and inventions of different cultures over time as they turned their studies to the stars. Using this as a baseline to redefine truly "rare" occurrences, Jonathan Powell then provides modern-day astronomers at all levels with pointers for what they can witness and when. From phenomena as old and far-off as a supernova witnessed a thousand years ago, and as recent and nearby as Sputnik's famous beeping, this book covers everything that one must know to see, hear, and appreciate the astronomical events happening around us.

Book Identity Designs

    Book Details:
  • Author : Karen A. Cerulo
  • Publisher : Rutgers University Press
  • Release : 1995
  • ISBN : 9780813522111
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Identity Designs written by Karen A. Cerulo and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National symbols, modern totems with ancient roots, remain entities for which men and women continue to march, debate, fight, and die. Modern political leaders still drape their campaigns in such symbols; modern revolutionaries still defile them. Identity Designs explores the source of this long-standing power--the way national symbols are selected, the manner in which their meaning is conveyed, their potential effects, and the sustenance of their power. In particular, the book charts the role of design in the selection of symbolic images, thus demonstrating that symbols are chosen not just for what they convey, but how they convey their message. Karen Cerulo shows that the symbolic designs of a nation's identity are not simply the products of indigenous characteristics, as conventional wisdom might suggest. Rather, the banners and songs by which nations represent themselves are generated by broad social forces that transcend the peculiarities of any one nation. Cerulo's analysis acquaints readers with a set of social structural factors that delimit rules of symbolic expression. Further, the book suggests the benefits of adhering to these rules and explores the costs of violating them.

  • Author : Emily Zazulia
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2021-10-15
  • ISBN : 0197551939
  • Pages : 345 pages

Download or read book Where Sight Meets Sound written by Emily Zazulia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main function of western musical notation is incidental: it prescribes and records sound. But during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, notation began to take on an aesthetic life all its own. In the early fifteenth century, a musician might be asked to sing a line slower, faster, or starting on a different pitch than what is written. By the end of the century composers had begun tasking singers with solving elaborate puzzles to produce sounds whose relationship to the written notes is anything but obvious. These instructions, which appear by turns unnecessary and confounding, challenge traditional conceptions of music writing that understand notation as an incidental consequence of the desire to record sound. This book explores innovations in late-medieval music writing as well as how modern scholarship on notation has informedsometimes erroneouslyideas about the premodern era. Drawing on both musical and music-theoretical evidence, this book reframes our understanding of late-medieval musical notation as a system that was innovative, cutting-edge, and dynamicone that could be used to generate music, not just preserve it.

  • ISBN : 192848090X
  • Pages : 374 pages

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second World War involved most of the countries of the world and left so many millions dead and maimed, disorganised and devastated through personal and communal loss. This book recovers some of South Africa’s soldiers’ experiences from the physical and mental debris of the war. Individuals are important; their lives – used as lenses – give us colour and texture, and their voices tell the stories of ordinary soldiers. Using their memoirs and diaries, the vitality of their endeavours is reasserted, their successes and failures, victories and indecencies are re-examined, and their magnanimity and the general triumph of the human spirit are celebrated.

  • Publisher : Routledge

  • ISBN : 1000207366
  • Pages : 254 pages

Download or read book Icons of Sound written by Bissera V. Pentcheva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Icons of Sound: Voice, Architecture, and Imagination in Medieval Art brings together art history and sound studies to offer new perspectives on medieval churches and cathedrals as spaces where the perception of the visual is inherently shaped by sound. The chapters encompass a wide geographic and historical range, from the fifth to the fifteenth century, and from Armenia and Byzantium to Venice, Rome, and Santiago de Compostela. Contributors offer nuanced explorations of the intangible sonic aura produced in these places by the ritual music and harness the use of digital technology to reconstruct historical aural environments. Rooted in a decade-long interdisciplinary research project at Stanford University, Icons of Sound expands our understanding of the inherently intertwined relationship between medieval chant and liturgy, the acoustics of architectural spaces, and their visual aesthetics. Together, the contributors provide insights that are relevant across art history, sound studies, musicology, and medieval studies.
