Purpose: This paper is to remind the Balinese folklore of legendary love story King Jaya Pangus Harkajalancana and Paduka Sri Cacangkaja Cihna (Kang Cing Wie) in Dalem Balingkang by composing a minimalist music with Western, Balinese, Chinese elements. Research methods: The musical work done referring exploration stage, experimental (improvisation) forming stage. three stages are applied as ref...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine whether running in a minimalist shoe results in a reduction in ground reaction forces and alters kinematics over standard shoe running. The secondary purpose of this study was to determine whether within-session accommodation to a novel minimalist shoe occurs. METHODS Subjects were 14 male, rearfoot striking runners who had never run in a min...

Minimalist theories of spoken language planning hold that articulation starts when the first speech segment has been planned, whereas non-minimalist theories assume larger units (e.g., Levelt, Roelofs, & Meyer, 1999a). Three experiments are reported, which were designed to distinguish between these views using a new hybrid task that factorially manipulated preparation and auditory priming of sp...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of minimalist running shoes on oxygen uptake during running before and after a 10-week transition from traditional to minimalist running shoes. Twenty-five recreational runners (no previous experience in minimalist running shoes) participated in submaximal VO2 testing at a self-selected pace while wearing traditional and minimalist running sho...

Minimalist grammars are a mildly context-sensitive grammar framework within which analyses in mainstream chomskyian syntax can be faithfully represented. Here it is shown that both the derivation tree languages and derived tree languages of minimalist grammars are closed under intersection with regular tree languages. This allows us to conclude that taking into account the possibility of ‘seman...

This article argues that the social construction of the borders of Europe is the combined effect of a historical trajectory in which the construction of its outer and its inner boundaries interact. These boundaries make sense to the people because they have a narrative plausibility. On such narrative resonance, real hard borders are grounded. The idea of narrative boundary construction is embed...

As indicated by many researchers (Lecomte, 1998; Cornell, 1997) the minimalist framework as worked out in the Minimalist Program (Chomsky, 1995) and the resource conscious logics such as Multimodal Categorial Grammar (Moortgat, 1996) show many similarities. The two theories are the product of distinct scientific traditions, but they aim to give a similar explanation for grammatical knowledge an...

Squash is associated with a high incidence of chronic injuries. Currently there is a trend in many sports for players to select minimalist footwear. The aim of the current investigation was to examine the effects of squashspecific, running shoes and minimalist footwear on the kinetics and 3-D kinematics of the lunge movement in squash players. Twelve male squash players performed lunge movement...
