With the aim of contributing to scholarship on costume designers’ agential collaboration within contemporary dance, this article centres creative authorship designer. Using notions ‘signature style’ and ‘authorship’ as key research lenses, it investigates work Finnish designer Erika Turunen specifically her with choreographer Tero Saarinen. Drawing from in-person interviews materials related co...

objective : the major objective of this study was to determine the means and 95% confidence interval of normal 6 years old children's motor-verbal skills. based on the results of this study we could develop a measure to diagnose abnormal motor skills. in addition, in this follow-up study, we compared the first-graders' motor-verbal skills to their own skills one year earlier. method: ...

From the perspective of poetry therapy, author relates Western views poetic time, rhythm, literary creation, and metaphoric language to ancient Chinese conceptions literature haiku tradition. The analyzes develops practical approaches using for therapeutic, rehabilitative, preventive purposes. In haikus, he detects potential explorative meditative self- communal transformation, flexible coping ...

the number of students who can not complete school programs is a serious problem facing many educational systems in all educational levels . drop oui and repetition are one of the most common matters that many educators and researchers interest to study it. there are many reasons on the retention and non-completion patterns, but it can find rarely a philosophical viewpoint on the problem. the a...

We demonstrate the generation of two-photon correlation trains based on spectral filtering of broadband biphotons. Programmable amplitude filtering is employed to create biphoton frequency combs, which when coupled with optical dispersion allows us to experimentally verify the temporal Talbot effect for entangled photons. Additionally, an alternative spectral phase-filtering approach is shown t...

Industrial Design lies at the interface between the aesthetic elements of styling and appearance, and the innovation which is driven by science and technology. It requires the application of knowledge from a multiplicity of interdependent disciplines. The teaching Industrial Design of at our university, favours the heuristic approach taking inspiration from the natural world[1], the creation of...

Composing drum patterns and musically developing them through repetition and variation is a typical task in electronic music production. We propose a system that, given an input pattern, automatically creates related patterns using a genetic algorithm. Two distance measures (the Hamming distance and directed-swap distance) that relate to rhythmic similarity are shown to derive usable fitness fu...

Using a time-gated dual quadrature spectral interferometry technique, for the first time we demonstrate single-shot characterization of both spectral amplitude and phase of approximately 1THz bandwidth optical arbitrary waveforms generated from a 10 GHz frequency comb. Our measurements provide a temporal resolution of 1ps over a record length of 100ps. Singleshot characterization becomes partic...

In this paper I investigate the effects of changes in demand structure caused by population aging on the Japanese economy using a multi-sector new Keynesian model with job creation/destruction. I consider upward revisions in forecast for the speed of Japanese population aging as unexpected shocks to its demand structure. I find that the shocks caused around 0.3 percent point deflationary pressu...
