    The Documentary Art of Filmmaker Michael Rubbo

    No full text
    Michael Rubbo’s groundbreaking work has had a deep and enduring impact on documentary filmmaking worldwide, though his name has remained relatively unknown. In The Documentary Art of Michael Rubbo, author D.B. Jones traces Rubbo’s filmmaking from his days as a film student at Stanford, through his twenty years at the National Film Board of Canada, where Rubbo developed his distinct documentary style. Jones then describes Rubbo’s post-NFB venture into feature film directing, followed by Rubbo’s return to his native Australia, first as an executive with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and later as a director of feature-length documentaries and maker of short, personal films for YouTube. Exploring locales from Montreal to Vietnam, topics as diverse as plastic surgery and French Marxism, and from interviewing Margaret Atwood to documenting a failed attempt to interview Fidel Castro, Rubbo’s wide-ranging work establishes his innovative, personal, lyric, and spontaneous documentary style. In The Documentary Art of Michael Rubbo D.B. Jones reveals not only the depth of meaning in Rubbo’s films, but also the depth of their influence on filmmaking itself

    Equilibrium and growth forms of sucrose crystals in the {h0l} zone. II. Growth kinetics of the {101} d-form

    No full text
    The aim of the work is to assess the steady growth morphology of the zone of sucrose crystals by measuring the growth rates of its individual faces. Experimental results on the kinetics of (101)-d form are presented and discussed in this paper. The novelty consists in the shape of growth isotherms, which, at the moment, can be interpreted only qualitatively. Some possible parametrs determining this shape are considered throughout

    Equilibrium and growth forms of sucrose crystals in the {h0l} zone. 1. Theoretical treatment of {101}-d form

    No full text
    Observed (h0l) growth forms of the sucrose crystal are compared with calculated ones, on the basis of attachment energy plots. Agreement is found for all forms only if a modification of character of the ( 101)-d face is taken into considation. Calculation of equilibrium and growth forms have been carried out using two potential foe dispersion and bond energy respectively. The same method is applied for studying the spiral growth shape on the (101) face and its field of validity is discussed: a low driving force values, the attachment energy at the steps is the relevant energy, determining the shape of spirals on (101) face of sucrose

    La stampa di traduzione nel collezionismo inglese tra la fine del Settecento e gli inizi dell’Ottocento. Il caso di Francesco Bartolozzi: un italiano a Londra nel fondo Douce

    No full text
    Lo scopo del contributo è quello di fornire un resoconto parziale su alcune stampe di traduzione del vasto repertorio cartaceo di Francesco Bartolozzi, volendo integrare le ricerche fin qui condotte nei campi fondamentali della letteratura artistica, del disegno riproduttivo e del collezionismo; tali stampe risultano più rappresentative di altre nel lascito di Douce per le loro implicazioni storico-critiche, in un momento importante della Storia dell'arte, del gusto e del collezionismo inglese che, verso la seconda metà del Settecento e gli inizi dell'Ottocento, testimonia il grande interesse per l'Italia e la sua arte e vede il formarsi delle grandi collezioni di Old Masters, come prodotto culturale sulla scia dell'esperienza del Grand Tou

    Sucrose crystal growth kinetics in the presence of some peculiar impurities

    No full text
    The effect of some impurities on the growth rate of the single faces of sucrose crystals together with its morphology variation, is studied. The kinetic data are qualitatively explained on the grounds of the direct interaction between the impurities and the structure of the different faces of sucrose crystals

    Sostanze coloranti nel cristallo di saccarosio

    Cristalli di saccarosio ottenuti in presenza di varie sostanze coloranti sia in laboratorio che in scala pilota hanno mostrato l'importanza decisiva della velocità di crescita per l'inclusione di queste nelle loro facce (110), (111), (011), (11-1): quanto più è rapida la crescita, tanto maggiore la colorazione acquisita dai relativi settori

    La colorazione dei cristalli di zucchero in funzione di alcuni parametri della cristallizzazione industriale. Sucrose crystals colour as a function of some industrial crystallization parametrs

    Sulla base dei risultati raggiunti in una precedente ricerca, che aveva individuato nella cinetica di accrescimento la principale causa di inglobamento di sostanze coloranti nei cristalli di saccarosio, gli Autori proseguono la sperimentazione allo scopo di poter trasferire le loro conclusioni alla pratica della cristallizzazione industriale
