    Design guidelines for quality atriums

    Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1986.MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH.Bibliography: leaves 164--165.Modern technology has made it ecomically feasible to span large glass-enclosed structures which are socially sufficient and convenient for less mobile groups of the society like handicapped, elders and children to virtually spend days, weeks or even months in a comfortable indoor climate. However, it is plausible that any positive effects of a manipulated environment can turn sour if the created climate is not closely simulating natural condition. There is a danger of building in faulty and shortsighted presumptions neglecting the close relationship that exist between social, biological, medical, technical and aesthetical needs. This thesis, divided in two parts, has the broad aim to strengthen the architectural and technical foundation for a good atrium design in order to provide a suitable environment for the coexistence of people and plants in relation to comfort, health, climate, technique, aesthetics, and energy consumption. The scientific purpose is to establish new design criteria and methods in order to create a useful base for intelligent decisions in fulfilling the ultimate vision of a living atrium. The study will specifically focus on design guidelines with respect to climatic conditions affecting plant growth and human health and comfort within atriums. Part one is a discussion regarding major variables affecting human health, comfort and plant growth in atriums. Also included is a detailed study, recently conducted by the author, investigating the. impact of new glazing technology on plant growth. Part two presents various useful design guidelines which can be used to moderate climatic conditions and enhance plant growth in atriums. A detailed lighting investigation, conducted by the author, is also presented as a design tool for determining the distribution of illumination levels in top-lit atriums during overcast conditions. The method can be used to rapidly identify plant growth zones in an arbitrarily proportioned and top-lit light-well.by Kenneth Gardestad.M.S

    The invisible artist: Arrangers in popular music (1950-2000): Their contribution and techniques

    No full text
    This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel University.This thesis is based on the research conducted by the author for the series, Richard Niles' History of Pop Arranging, seven thirty-minute documentary programmes for BBC Radio 2, researched, written and presented by the author and broadcast in 2003. It also draws on interviews conducted by the author (and other research) between 2002 and 2007 both for the radio series and for this thesis and on the author's experience as a professional arranger in popular music working with many of the genre's significant recording artists including Paul McCartney, Ray Charles, Cher, Tina Turner, Westlife, Tears For Fears, Dusty Springfield, James Brown, Pet Shop Boys, Kylie Minogue and producers including Trevor Hom, Steve Lipson, Steve Mac and Steve Anderson. It will be argued that the role of the arranger in popular music has often been undervalued and that during a critical period of popular music history (1950-2000) arrangers played a significant part in the evolution of musical content. This thesis is, to the best of the author's knowledge, the first time (apart from the above mentioned documentary) the subject has ever been examined. The arranger is "invisible" because musical arrangers are often un-credited on record liner notes or in books or articles concerning popular music. A considerable amount of research has been necessary to determine who wrote many of the arrangements considered herein. Motown's Berry Gordy purposely kept the names of musicians and arrangers off the records because he feared others might 'poach' the trademark 'Motown Sound'. Other record labels considered the job of the arranger to be reminiscent of an earlier era, diluting the Rock 'n' Roll image of emotion and spontanaeity they wished to promote. Some producers and recording artists disliked sharing credit for their work. Motown arranger David Van dePitte told the author that arranging was "thankless and anonymous - a very service-oriented profession where others often take credit for what you've done." Arranging has therefore remained an intrinsically unseen art created by 'invisible' artists. By analyzing many recordings, revealing the techniques and concepts they have used in their work to create popular records, arrangers and their art will be made more 'visible'
