The Music of Sounds and the Music of Things

The Music of Sounds and the Music of Things

Leigh Landy; John Richards

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

nidottu

Halvin toimitettuna 74,10 €

This book investigates two areas in which the appreciation of sonic creativity can be easily acquired across diverse cultures, ages and interests: the music of sounds – making music with any sounds, part of today’s sampling culture and the music of things – and the creation of instruments using existent materials (another type of sampling?) involving the notion of ‘instrument as composition’ as part of today’s DIY (or DIT, do it together) culture. The book offers broad discussions regarding the music of things (written by John Richards) followed by the music of sounds (written by Leigh Landy). These chapters are followed by a focus on the workshop demonstrating the collaborative and inclusive potential in both areas, and a spotlight on eight artists with a broad diversity of backgrounds and approaches to sound and music who discuss their perceptions. The book’s conclusion focuses on similarities and differences between the music of sounds and the music of things, suggesting, finally, that both might form part of the 21st- century’s folk music landscape. The book is primarily aimed towards students interested in current forms of sonic creativity but will be of interest to those interested in broader issues of sampling culture, hacking and sound studies.

The Gorgon Flower

The Gorgon Flower

John Richards

UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND PRESS
2024
pokkari
A young woman is haunted by the disappearance of her grandmother, a brilliant mathematician whose research uncovered the basis for parallel universes. A botanist travels across the seas in search of an elusive, deadly flower that was also his late father's obsession. A talented painter produces his best work - unsettling masterpieces with strange, fantastical elements - years after he was last seen in person. In this gothic-inspired collection of stories, John Richards pushes the limits of what short fiction can be. With settings that range from rural France to medieval Italy to nineteenth-century Borneo, The Gorgon Flower is an impressively crafted, engrossing debut by a bold new writer.

By simplifying difficult ideas, Richards makes his subject accessible to both experts and novices, and he offers a vivid picture of the sociological, ethical, and economic repercussions that would arise from the widespread adoption of intelligent machines. Detail-oriented and enthusiastic, Richards explores how artificial intelligence (AI) interacts with fields as diverse as neuroscience and ethics to reveal the far-reaching effects of such technology. With the relentless march of artificial intelligence, "The Rise of Machines" is a compelling guide that encourages readers to ponder the implications of a future where machines increasingly share the stage with humanity.

The Political Economy of Education in South Asia

The Political Economy of Education in South Asia

John Richards; Manzoor Ahmed; Shahidul Islam; Fazle Abed

University of Toronto Press
2021
pokkari
With the exception of Sri Lanka, South Asian countries have not achieved quality basic education – an essential measure for escaping poverty, inequality, and social exclusion. In The Political Economy of Education in South Asia, John Richards, Manzoor Ahmed, and Shahidul Islam emphasize the importance of a dynamic system for education policy. The Political Economy of Education in South Asia documents the weak core competency (reading and math) outcomes in government primary schools in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, and the consequent rapid growth of non-government schools over the last two decades. It compares the training, hiring, and management of teachers in South Asian schools to successful national systems ranging from Singapore to Finland. Discussing reform options, it makes the case public good and public priorities are better served when both public and non-government providers come under a strong public policy and accountability framework. The Political Economy of Education in South Asia draws on the authors' broad engagement in education research and practice in South Asia, as well as analysis by prominent professors of education and NGO leaders, to place basic education in a broad context and make the case that universal literacy and numeracy are necessary foundations for economic growth.
