Sylvie COËLLIER Aix-Marseille University -LESA Mark Manders, L'usine silencieuse
No full textTexte principal du catalogue de l'exposition de l'artiste flamand Mark Manders au Carré d'Art-Musée d'Art contemporain de NîmesMark Manders set up his home and studio in a former textile factory in Belgium. He is gradually occupying the entire space, arranging living rooms, winter and summer studios, rooms for drawings and for ideas, offices, corridors lined with books and with archives, spaces for materials, for wood machines, welding machines, the kiln, and also: a guest pavilion, quarters for close friends, a courtyard, a wildlife garden, a henhouse … Mark Manders says that we must look at each of his installations as a room in a building which, taken together, gradually make up his self-portrait. This is a principle he initiated early on. In 1986, at age 18, he was a young man at a crossroads, wondering what road to take: music, writing or art. From this reflection on identity there emerged the idea for a book-self-portrait, an idea that fascinated him. However, picking up his writing tools – ball-point pens, pencils, rulers, a rubber, scissors, brushes, pots of glue, ink pots – he drew on the floor the plan for a building.Mark Manders abrite sa maison et son atelier dans une ancienne usine textile en Belgique. Il en prend peu à peu tout l'espace, aménageant pièces à vivre, ateliers d'hiver et d'été, salles pour les dessins et les idées, bureaux, couloirs à bibliothèque, à archives, remises pour les matériaux, espaces pour les machines à bois, à souder, pour le four à céramique, et puis aussi : pavillon pour les amis, appartement pour les intimes, cour, jardin sauvage, poulailler… Mark Manders dit qu'il faut regarder chacune de ses installations comme une pièce d'un bâtiment dont l'ensemble constitue peu à peu son autoportrait. C'est un principe qu'il a initié très tôt. A 18 ans, en 1986, le jeune homme alors à la croisée des chemin
Mark Manders : Singing Sailors
No full textHoptman argues that Manders’ sculpture is built on the same principle as linguistic meaning, and she avers that he deploys elements of architecture to construct a narrative framework and concretise abstract thought. In Marije’s interviews with the artist, they discuss specific works and his working process. Since he finds the world more complex than language, Manders claims to write his self-portrait with objects. Bio-bibliography 2 p. 4 bibl. ref

Border tax adjustment and the EU-ETS, a quantitative assessment
No full textIf the EU stands alone in adopting climate policy and imposes a strict emissions ceiling, competitiveness of EU energy-intensive sectors will be affected negatively. Relocation of EU energy-intensive firms to countries with a lax regime also leads to carbon leakage. However, when use is made of the opportunities of the Clean Development Mechanism these impacts are very modest. Border tax adjustments (BTAs) to ‘level the playing field’ between domestic and foreign producers may be considered to address the concerns about both competitiveness and carbon leakage. It is far from clear whether these measures are WTO-proof. Simulations show that both an import levy and an export refund restore competitiveness to a certain extent. BTAs may lower the costs for energy-intensive sectors, but induce higher costs for other sectors. This paper uses a general equilibrium model to quantify and assess the implications of a number of policy scenarios.
Comics as a Way of Doing, Encountering, and Making Religion
No full textWhat can be learned from the research presented in Culture, Comics, and Religion. Faith imagined? De Groot collects and systematizes the results and suggests paths for further research. He shows how comics are a way of doing, encountering, and making religion in liquid modernity, and argues that comics deserve more attention from the perspective of material religion, lived religion, and fiction-based religion

Objective measures of the sound quality of adaptive feedback cancellers in hearing aids (Poster)
No full textObjective prediction of the sound quality of music processed by an adaptive feedback canceller
No full textAdaptive feedback cancellers in hearing aids can produce unpleasant sounding distortion artefacts (entrainment) in response to periodic inputs, including music. Reliable objective metrics that predict user-perceived distortion could significantly reduce development costs for new hearing aids. The aim of this study was to gain insight into the ability of different objective metrics to predict subjective ratings of the sound quality of music processed by adaptive feedback cancellation. The metrics tested consisted of perceptual measures from established audio quality models (including PEAQ, PEMO-Q and Rnonlin). Neural networks were used to map between the values of the perceptual measures and a subjective scale of perceived quality. Training data consisted of values of perceptual measures obtained from ten different excerpts of orchestral music processed by a simplified model of a hearing aid with an adaptive feedback canceller, and corresponding subjective ratings obtained from 27 normal hearing subjects. An optimal combination of perceptual measures to use as inputs to a network input was found using an extended Fourier amplitude sensitivity test (EFAST). Our results suggest that the most salient inputs to a multivariate model of measured quality ratings consist of perceptual measures related to spectral noise loudness, modulation differences between clean and processed signals, and correlation-based measurement of nonlinear distortion. The intraclass correlation between mean subjective ratings and the output of a network combining these perceptual measures was high (r=0.95), which compares favourably to results from previous studies of perceptual quality metric
