Given a scanned score page, Optical Music Recognition (OMR) attempts to reconstruct all contained music information. However, the available OMR systems lack the ability to recognize transposition information contained in complex orchestral scores. 1 An additional unsolved OMR problem is the handling of orchestral scores using compressed notation. 2 Here, the information of which instrument has ...

Concurrent feedback provided during acquisition can enhance performance of novel tasks. The 'guidance hypothesis' predicts that feedback provision leads to dependence and poor performance in its absence. However, appropriately structured feedback information provided through sound ('sonification') may not be subject to this effect. We test this directly using a rhythmic bimanual shape-tracing t...

Scholars understand shopping malls as central commercial and social settings. Some argue that malls’ designs attract and seduce consumers, while others contend that mall authorities exclude vulnerable groups and prohibit free expression. Ethnographic studies, by contrast, document how consumers interpret and shape malls as social settings. Drawing on qualitative research in two Santiago, Chile,...

Hermans’ polyphonic model of the self proposes that dialogical relationships can be established between multiple I-positions (e.g. Hermans, 2001a). There have been few attempts, however, to explicitly characterise the forms that these intrapersonal relationships may take. Drawing on Buber’s (1958) distinction between the ‘I-Thou’ and ‘I-It’ attitude, it is proposed that intrapersonal relationsh...

Optical reporters enable the direct and minimally invasive probing of molecular events in complex environments such as living cells and tissues. While significant achievements have been made in the area of fluorescent sensors for metal ions and small organic compounds,1 probes that report directly on enzyme activity are less developed by comparison, with the exception of reporters for hydrolase...

This article interrogates the translation strategies involved when transposing Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan novels into a play – first produced in UK. My Brilliant Friend, adapted by April De Angelis and directed Melly Still, was based on of Ann Goldstein staged at National Theatre (London) 2019/2020 following its success Rose Theatre, Kingston 2017. In investigating ‘making’ play, particularly ...

The Italian approach to determining background values (BGVs) of metals and trace elements in marine sediments according the national legislation transposing water framework directive (WFD) has been illustrated. This study may be helpful for all countries that need establish local BGVs correct assessment contamination areas with wide geological geochemical variability and, particularly, those as...
