Audiomobiles, Sculptures and Conundrums
Roberto Gerhard was a pioneer of electronic music in England creating a number of substantial concert, theatre and radio works from as early as 1954. Gerhard’s electronic music is one of the richest repositories for understanding the development of the composer’s late compositional technique. Apart from the Symphony no.3, ‘Collages’, none of Gerhard’s electronic music is published. This paper will discuss aspects of Gerhard’s electronic music, focusing on Audiomobiles (1958-59) and Sculptures (1963)
Roberto Gerhard’s Sound Compositions: A Historical-Philological Perspective. Archive, Process, Intent and reenactment
This research advances the current state of knowledge in the field of early tape music both empirically and methodologically. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact that the electronic medium exerted in the musical thinking of Roberto Gerhard, one of the most outspoken, prolific and influential composers in the Spanish diaspora whose musical legacy, for the most part unknown, is a major landmark in the early history of electroacoustic music. Gerhard’s personal tape collection, one of the largest historical archives of its kind reported in the literature, is exceptional for both its antiquity (50+-year-old tapes) and its abundance of production materials. Through the digitisation and analysis of the composer’s tape collection this research argues that the empirical study of audio documents sets out a basis for a broader understanding of textual processes. More specifically, the research demonstrates that the reconstruction of works based on magnetic tape sketches is a powerful method to advance the understanding of early tape music. This research also examines Gerhard’s sound compositions in relation to the post-war context in which they were composed. Finally, this research presents performance documentation that proposes an approach to the electroacoustic music repertoire in which creativity is not at odds with rigor and critical discernment demonstrating that archival study can be closely aligned to the concept of re-enactment
Gymnetron crassirostre Lucas 1849
Gymnetron crassirostre Lucas, 1849 This taxon was described from specimens from Chevrolat's collection collected in the surroundings of Algiers. It was compared with R. tetra and said to differ by the smaller and narrower body and mainly by the distinctly shorter and more curved rostrum. Lucas (1849) illustrated habitus, rostrum in lateral view and antenna. Brisout de Barneville (1862) considered this taxon as a variety of R. tetra with yellow vestiture but, after examination of a syntype, placed it in synonymy with G. verbasci Rosenschoeld (Brisout de Barneville, 1865). In Klima (1934) and Hoffmann (1958), G. crassirostre is considered as a synonym of R. tetra. In Chevrolat's collection at NHRS we found two male specimens, placed next to each other and labelled respectively “ 425 [handwritten under a round card blue upside and white downside] / crassirost [sic] Lucas - Gymnetron teter Meg. Alger [handwritten upside and downside the same rectangular white thin card]” and “ 183 [printed on a rectangular white card] / crassirostris Luc Ba[rbarie] [handwritten on a blue rectangular card]”. These specimens are almost identical with the lectotype of G. verbasci (see above) and one of them is probably the specimen that Brisout de Barneville (1865) received from Boheman as a syntype of G. crassirostre. They agree with the original description in the body length of 5 mm, the colour of the elytral integument and the vestiture composed of moderately dense, short, greenish yellow scales, but not at all in the shape of the rostrum (long and straight in lateral view in these specimen vs. very short and distinctly curved in lateral view in Lucas' original description and line drawing). We think that this intriguing conflict can be resolved with another specimen we found adjacent to the previous two specimens. It is the holotype of Gymnetron lanigerum Brisout de Barneville, 1862 (presently R. lanigera) which is labelled “ 191. [handwritten under a semicircular card blue upside and white downside] / Gymnetron lanigerum Chv. Barb [arie]. Lucas [handwritten on a blue rectangular card] / 191. [printed on a rectangular white card]”. This specimen corresponds exactly to that illustrated by Lucas as crassisostre. In conclusion we believe that Lucas erroneously combined the characters of two different species in a single description. Therefore, following Boheman's opinion (Brisout de Barneville, 1865). we here designate the first of the two above mentioned male specimens, which is labelled with the number “ 425 ”, as the lectotype of Gymnetron crassirostre.Published as part of Caldara, Roberto, Casalini, Roberto & Baviera, Cosimo, 2012, Taxonomic and nomenclatural notes on the Rhinusa tetra (Fabricius) species complex (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), pp. 31-40 in Zootaxa 3329 on page 35, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.28123

Roberto Tibau and the process of making architecture
Este estudo documenta a vida e a obra de Roberto José Goulart Tibau (1924-2003), arquiteto brasileiro. O objetivo fundamental - e mais importante - é reunir informações sobre os projetos e obras mais significativos desenvolvidos durante sua atividade profissional, tornando-os acessíveis através dessa pesquisa. O trabalho baseou-se em pesquisa bibliográfica, levantamento e registro das obras e projetos realizados, currículo profissional, e depoimento de Tibau, concedido ao autor, em 1998. Em Roberto Tibau e o fazer arquitetura são descritos os caminhos percorridos pelo arquiteto; o contexto histórico de sua formação e atuação profissional; a relação de sua produção arquitetônica com outras obras da época; e eventuais referências projetuais utilizadas na criação dos seus projetos. Este trabalho vem preencher uma lacuna bibliográfica considerável, trazendo à luz, a obra deste significativo arquiteto, que dedicou sua vida ao trabalho na prancheta, na qual deixou sua marca de humanista.This study documents the life and work of Roberto José Goulart Tibau (1924-2003), a Brazilian architect. It aims to collect information about the most significant projects developed during the years of his professional career, which will become available through this research. The present study based on bibliographical research, examination and registration of the projects executed by the architect, his resumé, and his testimonial to the author of this research, in 1998. In Roberto Tibau and the process of making architecture there is a description of the ways in which his projects were conceived; the historical context through his professional activity since graduation, the relation between his own production and the production of other architects of the same period, and the projecting references used for his creations. This research is also an attempt to fill a signicant bibliographical gap of architecture history in Brazil by bringing to light the work of this relevant architect, who dedicated his life to working on his drawing table, leaving to us his humanistic style

Gymnetron vulpes Lucas
Gymnetron vulpes Lucas Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849: 459; Brisout 1862: 659; Reitter 1908: 17. This taxon was described from a single specimen collected at Milah (Constantine province, Algeria) and is now housed in the general collection of the MNHN. It corresponds exactly to the original description and illustration and is labelled as follows " 756 [handwritten under a blue round label] / Gymnetron vulpes, Lucas [handwritten white rectangular label] / Museum Paris, Algérie, coll. H. Lucas 78 - 49 [typewritten grey rectangular label] / TYPE [typewritten red rectangular label]". It is a male and here designated as the lectotype of Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849 (des. Caldara). Lucas (1849) referred to the fact that, according to the opinion of Roussel, this species is also common in the environs of Alger, where the larva develops on Celsia cretica L. (syn. of Verbascum creticum (L.) Cav.). Brisout (1862) believed erroneously that this specimen was only a teneral individual of G. p i l o s u m and therefore synonymised these two taxa. In fact, it is a junior synonym of the species called Gymnetron marmota Fairmaire, 1883 by Reitter (1908), presently placed in Mecinus (Caldara 2001). Moreover, the specimens collected on Celsia cretica actually belong to R. tetra (Fabricius, 1792).Published as part of Caldara, Roberto, Ić, Milana Desan Č, Gassmann, Andre, Legarreta, Lorenza, Emerson, Brent C. & Toševski, Ivo, 2008, On the identity of Rhinusa hispida (Brullé) and its current synonyms (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), pp. 61-68 in Zootaxa 1805 on page 63, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18265
