Musical materials for new opera
Bakalářská práce „notové materiály v nové opeře“ se zabývá problematikou a specifiky hudebních materiálů při uvádění současných hudebně-dramatických děl se zaměřením na operu. Autor práce si bere za cíl zmapovat proces práce s hudebními materiály od záměru vytvořit umělecké dílo, přes samotnou kompozici, úpravu a tisk, zkoušení s výkonnými umělci, premiéru, až po jeho poslední uvedení – tedy derniéru. Praktický obsah textu je pojat ze tří stran – z pozice skladatele, hudebního nakladatele a producenta opery. Práce mimo jiné také hovoří o uvádění současných oper v českém prostředí.The main topic of the work „Musical materials for new opera“ is musical materials in the context of contemporary musical performances with the focus on opera plays. The author of the work aims to map the working process with the musical materials in its various stages: from the intention of creation of the artwork, throughout the composition itself, editing and print, rehearsing with the artists, the premiere, up until the last show – derniére. The content of the work is grasped from three perspectives – the perspective of the composer, the publisher, and finally, the producer of the opera. Additionally, the work touches the process of putting on contemporary opera plays in the Czech cultural context
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
Digital Management of Theatres
Diplomová práce s názvem Digitální řízení divadla se zabývá implementací a využitím digitálních technologií a informačních systémů v divadelních institucích. Práce zdůrazňuje roli digitálních technologií v modernizaci produkce, správě dat a komunikačních procesů, které jsou klíčové pro efektivní provoz divadel. Zkoumáním strategického řízení IT a rozhodovacích procesů tato práce poukazuje na význam propojení digitální strategie s cíli organizace pro zlepšení celkového výkonu. Výzkum se zaměřuje na jedinečné výzvy digitální transformace, kterým čelí divadla, a porovnává je s širšími snahami o digitalizaci v rámci organizací. Na příkladu Paláce Akropolis práce poskytuje podrobnou analýzu divadelního ERP systému KOPR a ilustruje jeho dopad na provozní efektivitu. Cílem této práce je nabídnout poznatky a pohledy na problematiku digitální transformace v oblasti řízení kulturních institucí.The thesis titled Digital Management of Theatre explores the implementation and use of digital technologies and information systems in theatre institutions. The work emphasizes the role of digital technologies in modernizing production, data management, and communication processes, which are crucial for the efficient operation of theatres. By examining strategic IT management and decision-making processes, this study highlights the importance of aligning digital strategy with organizational goals to improve overall performance. The research focuses on the unique challenges of digital transformation faced by theatres and compares them with broader digitalization efforts within organizations. Using the example of Palác Akropolis, the thesis provides a detailed analysis of the theatre's ERP system KOPR and illustrates its impact on operational efficiency. The aim of this work is to offer insights and perspectives on the issue of digital transformation in the management of cultural institutions
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We 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
We 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
