De l’ONF à Télé-Québec : le parcours de Pierre F. Brault, compositeur de musique de film et de télévision
Le compositeur québécois Pierre F. Brault (1939-2014), surtout connu pour la musique de la populaire série télévisée Passe-Partout, a principalement oeuvré dans les milieux télévisuels et cinématographiques. Il a composé 86 trames sonores, notamment pour les films Rouli-Roulant (Claude Jutra, 1966), Red (Gilles Carle, 1970), LeVent (Ron Tunis, 1972) ainsi que La faim (Peter Foldès, 1973). Au début de sa carrière, Brault a également mis en musique les textes des chansonniers Robert Charlebois, Clémence Desrochers et Claude Gauthier. Il a par la suite touché à l’enseignement de la musique (École nationale de théâtre, 1971-1975) et à la production d’albums (Tout l’monde est malheureux, 1975). Dans ses oeuvres, le compositeur a exploré plusieurs genres, dont le jazz, le rock psychédélique et la musique électroacoustique. Sa trajectoire met en évidence certaines réalités propres aux musiciens de l’image et les compromis auxquels ils doivent faire face. Malgré tout, Brault a pu bénéficier d’une diffusion à grande échelle propre au cinéma et à la télévision ainsi que de conditions salariales avantageuses. Dans cet article sont résumées, en grande partie à l’aide de sources inédites, les principales étapes de la vie professionnelle de Pierre F. Brault et est proposée une réflexion sur le rôle de la musique de film et de télévision dans sa carrière.Quebec composer Pierre F. Brault (1939-2014), best known for the music of the popular television series Passe-Partout, worked mainly in television and film. He composed 86 soundtracks, most notably for Rouli-roulant (Claude Jutra, 1966), Red (Gilles Carle, 1970), Wind (Ron Tunis, 1972) and Hunger (Peter Foldes, 1973). Early in his career, Brault set to music the lyrics of Clémence Desrochers, Robert Charlebois and Claude Gauthier. He then went on to teach music (École nationale de théâtre, 1971-1975) and produce albums (Tout l’monde est malheureux, 1975). In his works, the composer explored numerous genres, including jazz, psychedelic rock and electroacoustic music. Brault’s career also highlights the realities of film composers and the compromises they face. Nevertheless, Brault was able to benefit from film and television’s wide distribution as well as from its lucrative wages. This article summarizes, largely using unpublished sources, the main stages of Pierre F. Brault’s professional life and provides insight into the role of film and television music in his career
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
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
