Stella F. Simon
Full text linkStella F. Simon and Miklos Bandy’s 1927–28 16mm film, Hands: The Life and Love of a Gentle Sex, is a short, experimental, feminist film whose aesthetic is drawn from American and European modernist photography movements and early avant-garde film traditions. The film’s underlying melodramatic narrative formula is complicated by the use of hands as both protagonists and as the central aspect of its modernist mise-en-scène. However, as with so many of the women who collaborated with men in the silent era, official credit did not go to Simon but to Bandy. The titles on all of the extant film prints credit Bandy as the film’s director, but attribute the idea to Simon. When it published four frame enlargements from the film, the British art film journal Close-Up equally attributed the film to him “after an idea by Stella F. Simon.” However, a review published the following month praised “Miss Simon’s” experiment with abstract, constructivist “scenery” (Blakeston 137). This August 1929 article, therefore, becomes the first source in new research that supports Simon as the film’s principle director (Richter 1971, 44; Barr 21; Horak 1995, 43-44; Wild 93-105). Little is known about Bandy, who was the author of one of the first articles in France to discuss Swedish abstract experimentalist Viking Eggeling’s short film Symphonie Diagonale (1924) in Germaine Dulac’s journal, Schémas. Modernist composer Marc Blitzstein wrote and performed the film’s original four-hand mechanical piano score and made a composite recording of it in March 1936 at the behest of RCA and the Museum of Modern Art (Lehrman 35)
RELIGION AS LAW: MEANING AND CONTEXT OF LAW IN AL-FARABI'S PHILOSOPHY
No full textAccording to the medieval Islamic philosophers, both law (nāmūs, sharī‘a) and tradition (sunna) are words closely related to other three words: religion (milla, dīn) and community (umma).
The aim of this article is to show what al-Farabi means with law, why he chooses to use nāmūs or sharī‘a and how he relates these words with religion. Understanding the meaning of law in al-Farabi’s philosophy will allow us to shed more light on the meaning of religion in a pre-modern historico-philosophical context

Massive turbulent separation: an investigation of shear-layer interfaces
No full textThe massively separated flow behind a backward-facing ramp is investigated using particle image velocimetry, in the perspective of designing active separation control. Beyond the usual one-point statistical analysis, we address the issue of the characteristic length-scales corrugating the interfaces featuring the turbulent separation. Our preliminary results evidence the multi-scale nature of these interfaces. This fact might hold promise for new sizing criteria for fluidic actuators intended to alleviate separation effects
