Abstract

"MOONBIT is a hybrid work comprised of experimental poetry and a critical theory of the poetics and politics of computer code. It offers an extended intellectual and creative engagement with the affordances of computer software through multiple readings and re-writings of a singular text, the source code of the Apollo 11 Guidance Computer or the "AGC." MOONBIT re-marks and remixes the code that made space travel possible. Half of this book is erasure poetry that uses the AGC code as the source text, building on the premise that code can speak beyond its functional purpose. When we think about the 1960s U.S. space program and obscure scientific computer code, we might not first think about the Watts riots, Shakespeare, Winnie the Pooh, T.S. Eliot, or scatological jokes. Yet these cultural references and influences along with many more are scattered throughout the body of the code that powered the compact digital computer that successfully guided astronauts to the Moon and back and in July of 1969. MOONBIT unravels and rewrites the many embedded cultural references that were braided together within the language resources of mid-century computer code. MOONBIT also provides a gentle, non-expert introduction to the text of the AGC code, to digital poetics, and to critical code studies. Outlining a capacious interpretive practice, MOONBIT takes up all manner of imaginative decodings and recodings of this code. It introduces some of the major existing approaches to the study of code and culture while provide multiple readings of the source code along with an explanation and theorization of the way in which the code works, as both a computational and a cultural text"--

Abstract

Libérée de la tutelle athénienne en 314 avant notre ère, dans les remaniements géopolitiques qui marquent les débuts de la période hellénistique dans le monde égéen, Délos construit peu à peu son indépendance politique et économique. La communauté des Déliens redéfinit au cours des e et e siècles la place centrale que l’île n’a cessé d’occuper dans les circulations économiques, financières et culturelles de la Méditerranée. Cette étude s’appuie principalement sur les sources épigraphiques comptables, plus de cinq cents comptes et inventaires gravés qui furent exposés dans le sanctuaire d’Apollon, mais aussi sur les sources numismatiques et les vestiges archéologiques du front de mer, pour réenvisager la question de la place de Délos dans l’économie hellénistique. Loin d’être une exception à écarter des séries, la documentation délienne est le révélateur de situations économiques égéennes et témoigne des capacités des communautés grecques à s’adapter au changement dans des époques troublées. Derrière les chiffres gravés sur la pierre apparaissent des communautés humaines et des sociétés dont les activités économiques éclairent d’un jour nouveau l’histoire de cette partie de la Méditerranée. Freed from Athenian guardianship in 314 BCE, at a time of geopolitical changes which marked the beginnings of the Hellenistic period in the Aegean world, Delos gradually built up its political and economic independence. The Delian community redefined, during the third and second centuries, the central place that the island had constantly occupied in the economic, financial and cultural flows of the Mediterranean. This study is mainly based on epigraphic accounting sources, including more than five hundred accounts and engraved inventories that were visible in the sanctuary of Apollo, but also on numismatic sources and archaeological remains on the seafront, in order to re-consider the question of Delos’ place in the Hellenistic economy. Far from being an exception to be excluded…

Abstract

A reference book for the musician's practical work of interpretation, this volume, after a general presentation of 18th century principles for determining a tempo, offers a compendium of all Mozart's autograph tempo markings in 420 lists of pieces of similar character. Thus, a comparison of slower and quicker movements is made possible by 434 music examples, and there follows a wide-ranging collection of relevant texts taken from historical sources. The book does not claim to know "the single correct tempo" for the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It hopes to be of assistance in the unavoidable search by every interpreter for the "true mouvement" of each work-for the work itself, for the performer, the instrument or instruments, the room, the public, the nature of the event. It follows that there can be no absolutely "authentic" tempo for Mozart's works. And yet his tempo markings, since he chose them so meticulously, should be taken equally seriously with the other parameters of his famously precise notation.

Abstract

La musique s’invite au sein de notre existence, dans notre subjectivité la plus intime. Elle est ainsi un champ privilégié d’exploration pour la sémiotique existentielle, horizon musicologique nouveau développé par Eero Tarasti. Cette théorie s’enracine dans la sémiotique classique (Claude Lévi-Strauss, Algirdas Julien Greimas), relue et transfigurée par la philosophie allemande et existentielle (Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Heidegger…), et dans une moindre mesure, par la philosophie française (Sartre, Ricœur). Utilisant cette méthode sémiotique moderne comme support d’analyse, l’ouvrage cherche à expliquer pourquoi les grands compositeurs de notre tradition occidentale (Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Schumann, Wagner…) fascinent toujours autant les auditeurs et musiciens du monde entier.
