Enchanting David Bowie
No full textA longstanding, successful and frequently controversial career spanning more than four decades establishes David Bowie as charged with contemporary cultural relevance. That David Bowie has influenced many lives is undeniable to his fans. He requisitions and challenges his audiences, through frequently indirect lyrics and images, to critically question sanity, identity and essentially what it means to be 'us' and why we are here.
Enchanting David Bowie explores David Bowie as an anti-temporal figure and argues that we need to understand him across the many media platforms and art spaces he intersects with including theatre, film, television, the web, exhibition, installation, music, lyrics, video, and fashion. This exciting collection is organized according to the key themes of space, time, body, and memory - themes that literally and metaphorically address the key questions and intensities of his output

A modified Moore method for teaching undergraduate mathematics
No full texthas had a profound influence on educators [3]. Professor Moore's most important departure from age-old teaching practices was that he gave no lectures. Instead he gave his students theorems to prove and required them to work on the proofs until they were correct. Professor Moore selected 474 DAVID W. COHE
Principles of Vibrational Spectroscopic Methods and their Application to Bioanalysis
No full textVibrational spectroscopy, particularly FTIR, has been in use for a long time to determine secondary structure features of biomolecules. FTIR studies of proteins and peptides are usually concerned with the amide groups and their deuterium-substituted analogs and carboxyl groups. FTIR spectroscopy is ideal for the study of conformational changes and protein unfolding, as well as investigation of hydration effects around and inside biomolecules. It is also much used in the study of biomembranes and biomembrane-associated proteins, providing possibilities to study surface orientation. FTIR has been successfully applied to the study of adsorption of biomolecules to solid surfaces, involving either attenuated total reflection (ATR) or grazing incidence reflection (GIR) accessories. FTIR microscopy has provided possibilities for the study of proteins in their native environment, such as in serum, whole blood, bone, brain tissue, and many other matrices. Although the application of FTIR directly to clinical studies and diagnosis has been very much debated, some promising results have been obtained for the in vivo monitoring of glucose, hemoglobin, urea, albumin, phosphocreatine, and nitric oxide. A significant portion of this chapter focuses on various types of Raman spectroscopy, including SERS, as well as terahertz (THz) spectroscopy. In particular, it will present the state of the art in Raman, including laser sources, spectrometers, detectors, Raman microscopy (confocal and micro-Raman), Raman imaging, fiber optic probes for in vivo and in vitro analysis, and methods to obtain depth profile information. The issue of fluorescence interference will be considered from the perspectives of excitation wavelength selection and data treatment. Methods to optimize signal to noise with minimized excitation laser irradiance to avoid sample damage are also discussed. This chapter then reviews applications of Raman spectroscopy to bioanalysis. Areas discussed include pathology, cytopathology, single-cell analysis, in vivo and in vitro tissue characterization, chemical composition of cell components, proteomics, metabolomics, large-scale screening, microorganism identification, biocompatible materials, and counter biowarfare methods. Finally, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is still much used for determination of the functional groups that are in direct contact with noble metal surfaces or nanostructures. Finally, terahertz spectroscopy has given many new possibilities for studies of low-frequency interactions between electromagnetic radiation and biomaterials. In contrast to spectroscopic techniques at shorter wavelengths, THz spectroscopy directly probes long-range dynamics in biomolecules (such as conformation of DNA and proteins), vibrations of inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonds in solid-state materials, as well as picosecond dynamics in liquid solutions. This chapter reviews modern instrumentation and techniques for THz spectroscopy, with emphasis on applications in bioanalysis
Cult: A Composite Novel
No full textCult (redacted)
The first component of the thesis is a composite novel called Cult which falls into two parts with seven narratives in each. Part 1 tracks the protagonist, Ellen, from her first involvement with the cult through to her eventually leaving it. Although fiction, the first half of the book answers the kinds of questions the author is asked when people discover that she was once a sannyasin (a follower of the guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh). While the experiences of meditation, group therapy and communal living are all faithfully rendered within the stories, the need for strong characters, narrative drive and a lightness of touch takes precedence.
Part 2 picks up Ellen’s story some twenty or so years later and explores what becomes of her in middle age. It also looks at other groups in society, such as academia, the law and the internet dating community which each have their own jargon, hierarchies, rituals and rules but are not considered to be cults.
The book examines the question raised in the Epigraph, ‘how do we be together when we feel so alone’ with a focus on relationships other than the familial and the romantic.
Collisions, Chasms and Connections: a Performative Exploration of the Composite Novel Form
The second part of the thesis is both a critical and creative response to three contemporary American books: Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout; A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan; and Legend of a Suicide by David Vann. The critical element comprises a close reading of the three books; a chronological reconstruction of their overarching storylines; and a consideration of what their authors have said about writing the books. It concludes that, in the composite novel, the simultaneous presentation of multiple views and storylines operate much like a 3D image to give the impression of depth to the characters and situations rendered. The creative element of the essay is a playful and personal response to the texts
The AgriRover : a reinvented mechatronic platform from space robotics for precision farming
No full textThis paper presents an investigation of a novel development of a multi-functional mobile platform for agriculture applications. This is achieved through a reinven-tion process of a mechatronic design by spinning off space robotic technologies in terrestrial applications in the AgriRover project. The AgriRover prototype is the first of its kind in exploiting and applying space robotic technologies in precision farming. To optimize energy consumption of the mobile platform, a new dynamic total cost of transport algorithm is proposed and validated. An autonomous navi-gation system has been developed to enable the AgriRover to operate safely in unstructured farming environments. An object recognition algorithm specific to agriculture- has been investigated and implemented. A novel soil sample collect-ing mechanism has been designed and prototyped for on-board and in-situ soil quality measurement. The design of the whole system has benefited from the use of a mechatronic design process known as the Tiv model through which a plane-tary exploration rover is reinvented into the AgriRover for agricultural applica-tions. The AgriRover system has gone through three sets of field trials in the UK and some of these results are reported
