Music devised for the film Viva Voce by Keith Piper
No full textI was asked by Keith Piper to provide some musical material for the film, Viva Voce. He and I then shared ideas about the music of the 1920s that could have been heard by the frequenters of the Gargoyle Club of which Rex Whistler was a member. The heyday of the US ragtime craze had passed by this time but left influences in the music of a number of touring bands one of which was the Plantation orchestra with American jazz singer and dancer, Florence Mills whose song I’m a Little Blackbird, Looking for a Bluebird was a hit, and has since been seen as a plea for racial equality.
Keith Piper’s Viva Voce film, 2024 is installed in the old member’s dining room, Tate Britain. In Viva Voce, Keith Piper stages an imagined conversation between artist Rex Whistler and a fictional academic, Professor Shepherd, who asks Whistler about his 1927 mural 'The Expedition in Pursuit of Rare Meats', challenging him on its racist narrative and imager

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Prolonged metabolic recovery allows late identification of ischemia in the absence of electrocardiographic and perfusion changes in patients with exertional angina.
No full textRegional myocardial perfusion and exogenous glucose uptake were assessed in 10 normal subjects and 10 patients with coronary artery disease and stable angina pectoris using 82Rubiduim and 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose with positron emission tomography. At rest regional myocardial perfusion and glucose uptake in patients were comparable with those in normals. In 7 patients and 5 normals a supine bicycle exercise test was performed within the positron camera. In all 7 patients, exercise induced typical chest pain and ischemic electrocardiographic changes accompanied by regional abnormalities of myocardial perfusion which normalized 5 to 14 minutes after the end of exercise. In these patients 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose was injected during recovery from exercise when all the parameters that were altered during the test, including myocardial perfusion, were back to control. In all 7, glucose uptake in the regions which showed abnormal perfusion during exercise was significantly higher than in the non ischemic regions (i.e. the ones with a normal increment of 82Rubidium uptake during exercise). In 2 patients the test was repeated on a different day and 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose was injected during exercise in the presence of frank ischemia. In contrast to the injection following exercise, in both patients, glucose uptake in the ischemic region was found to be lower than in the non ischemic ones. In conclusion, in patients recovering from exercise-induced ischemia exogenous glucose utilization is enhanced in the previously ischemic myocardium. This occurs in the absence of symptoms and electrocardiographic changes and allows the identification and location of previous myocardial ischemia
