No full textRecording of Pierre Barbaud's Inspiravit Aeolus. During the months of July - August 1979, Barbaud did his holiday homework on the island of Panarea, which is part of the eight Aeolian Islands in southern Italy. The title refers to the character Aeolus from Homer's Odyssey who is the Keeper of the Winds. In the hours of siesta, he blows with great gentleness on the bougainvillea; this is the inspiration for all of the algorithms in the piece. After returning to Paris, Barbaud asked Frank Brown and Geneviève Klein to provide the sound sampling program in data that did not provoke violent attacks. A poor telephone transmission during a first experiment, was the cause of a crash that did not lack beauty. The following communications were normal, and everything from those transmissions were kept in the piece
Edouard Bauhain and Raymond Barbaud, the crossed paths of two architects, from the belle époque to the inter-war period
No full textA Paris, en 1895, deux architectes, Raymond Barbaud et Édouard Bauhain s’associaient. Après une activité commune qui dura jusque vers 1910, ils se séparèrent et poursuivirent chacun de leur côté une tout aussi riche activité jusqu’à la fin des années 1920. En suivant les parcours croisés de ces deux architectes, c’est un double portrait qui est dressé, des origines provinciales, en passant par la formation et les débuts professionnels, les engagements, les carrières communes et individuelles.L’activité de Raymond Barbaud et Édouard Bauhain a pris place dans un contexte géographique double voire triple, avec des œuvres parisiennes, charentaises et bordelaises, pour l’essentiel issues de commandes passées par une clientèle constituée de bourgeois parisiens, ou notables ruraux, d’industriels ou de professions libérales, et structurée par des réseaux économiques, politiques ou culturels. Majoritairement constituée d’édifices privés, la production architecturale de Barbaud et Bauhain comprend aussi bien des typologies traditionnelles que des innovations programmatiques. Ils y font la démonstration de leur maîtrise des modèles historiques autant que de leur connaissance de la production contemporaine.L’œuvre de Barbaud et Bauhain révèle toute la richesse de la palette entre matérialité et esthétique. N’écartant pas les aspects constructifs, entre techniques éprouvées et nouveaux systèmes, ils recherchèrent en permanence l’expression esthétique propre à satisfaire le caractère de chaque programme. La décoration intérieure est traitée selon l’éclectisme stylistique domestique propre à la période, tout en incluant les dispositifs du confort moderne. Enfin, leur collaboration avec les sculpteurs se révèle exemplaire tant dans l’ornementation que dans la statuaire.In Paris, in 1895, two architects, Raymond Barbaud and Edouard Bauhain became partnered. After a joint activity until around 1910, they separated and each one pursued a rich activity until the late 1920s. Through the crossed paths of these two architects, a double portrait is taking shape, from their provincial origins, to their common and individual careers, passing by their training, their professional debut and their commitments. The activity of Raymond Barbaud and Edouard Bauhain took place in a double or even a triple geographic context, with works in Paris, in the Charente county and in Bordeaux, mostly for a clientele of Parisian bourgeois, rural notables, industrialists or independent workers, a clientele structured by economic, political or cultural networks. Mostly constituted of private buildings, the architectural production of Barbaud and Bauhain includes both traditional typologies and programmatic innovations. The architects demonstrate their mastery of historical models as well as their knowledge of contemporary production. The work of Barbaud and Bauhain reveals a rich architectural palette between materiality and aesthetics. Not neglecting the constructive aspects, between tried and tested techniques and new systems, they constantly sought the aesthetic expression able to satisfy the character of each program. The interior decoration is treated according to the domestic stylistic eclecticism typical of the period, while including the features of modern comfort. Finally, their collaboration with the sculptors is exemplary in the field of ornamentation and of statuary
L'ordinateur et la musique
No full textDans notre précédent numéro nous avons signalé le rôle déjà important des ordinateurs dans la création artistique et les recherches qui se poursuivent dans ce sens. Il est un domaine qui a été particulièrement exploré : celui de la musique. La rigueur de la composition harmonique s'accommode volontiers de la rigueur du calcul. La " musique de machine " sera-t-elle pour autant une "musique inhumaine", dépouillée de toute affectivité, et remplacera-t-elle la musique traditionnelle ? On peut, plus simplement, concevoir que la musique " imaginaire ", " stochastique " ou " algorithmique " n'est pas destinée à supplanter toute autre musique, mais sera une tout autre musique.
A partir de données établies par Pierre Barbaud, Robert Philippe examine ici les différents aspects de cette question.Barbaud Pierre, Philippe Robert. L'ordinateur et la musique. In: Communication et langages, n°3, 1969. pp. 17-25
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry
No full textThis work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in
Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after
which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and
expatiated on the indispensable roles of these key actors in Nigerian Book Industry and in
the emerging Information Society. Furthermore, the various constraints to book
development were identified while the paper advised on how the Book Industry can be
further promoted in Nigeria. However, the paper concluded and made recommendations
on how the Book sector can help in enhancing scholarship in the country
