PIWeCS: enhancing human/machine agency in an interactive composition system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper focuses on the infrastructure and aesthetic approach used in PIWeCS: a Public Space Interactive Web-based Composition System. The concern was to increase the sense of dialogue between human and machine agency in an interactive work by adapting

A Covariant Information-Density Cutoff in Curved Space-Time

open access: yes, 2003
In information theory, the link between continuous information and discrete information is established through well-known sampling theorems. Sampling theory explains, for example, how frequency-filtered music signals are reconstructible perfectly from ...

Alloying-related trends from first principles: An application to the Ti--Al--X--N system

open access: yes, 2013
Tailoring and improving material properties by alloying is a long-known and used concept. Recent research has demonstrated the potential of ab initio calculations in understanding the material properties at the nanoscale.

Towards predictive modelling of near-edge structures in electron energy loss spectra of AlN based ternary alloys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although electron energy loss near edge structure analysis provides a tool for experimentally probing unoccupied density of states, a detailed comparison with simulations is necessary in order to understand the origin of individual peaks.

Biological and Biologically Inspired Functional Nanostructures: Insights into Structural, Optical, Thermal, and Sensing Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biological and biologically‐inspired functional nanostructures with structural, thermal, optical, and sensing applications are reviewed. The role of nanoscale features in biological materials on performance is described, and their blueprints are used for bio‐inspired nanomaterials, synthesized using advanced techniques (i.e., photolithography, bio ...

X_System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The X_System makes the playing, writing, and learning of music – even when using unconventional tunings – more intuitive, more logical, more expressive, and better sounding. The X_System allows for: • different temperaments to be chosen at the flick of

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.
