The emergence and complexification of symbolic practices in the Homo lineage: an archaeological and cognitive perspective Émergence et complexification des pratiques symboliques dans la lignée Homo : une approche archéologique et cognitive

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Recent archaeological discoveries, reviewed in this essay, challenge traditional views on the emergence of human symbolic cognition. Once believed to have originated in Europe around 40,000 years ago, new evidence shows it emerged much earlier across diverse regions.

Mortal relationality: waria family care and the ethics of dying in Bali Relationnalité mortelle : soins familiaux des waria et éthique des mourants à Bali

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Can a good death occur for those who balance on the edges of grievability? In Bali, where death marks a transition within the cycles of reincarnation, a good death depends on the mortuary care performed by intimate others – care that may be foreclosed to those whose lives are shaped by stigma.

Modern theatrics of love: desires and consumption in the Indian middle class Le théâtre moderne de l'amour : désirs et consommation dans la classe moyenne indienne

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article analyses class construction amongst the urban Indian middle class, through a novel prism of romantic love, specifically performances of romantic love which in turn highlight anxieties of being middle class. The article explains how a performance of romantic love before marriage is used as a basis by the middle class to claim being global ...

Equal before time: on the sensory suspension of accumulated time in Sichuan, China Égaux devant le temps : suspension sensorielle du temps accumulé au Sichuan (Chine)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Food and alcohol indulgence, along with tea‐drinking, gambling, and gossip, are integral to a characteristically Sichuanese ethos of ‘life enjoyment’ (xiangshou shenghuo). Beyond mere pleasure, sensory, ludic, and comic experiences temporarily strip participants of both their formal and subjective qualities.

Staging friendship: towards an anthropology of everyday geopolitics in South Asia L'amitié mise en scène : vers une anthropologie de la géopolitique du quotidien en Asie du Sud

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article studies Indian‐Bangladeshi friendship ethnographically, as a contested political imaginary, claim, and relation, from the vantage of its shared borderlands. Staging friendship, I show, is a geopolitical project that engages equally the highest echelons of the Indian and Bangladeshi states and ordinary residents of its marginalized ...

MUSIC and Ramanujan: MUSIC-like algorithms for integer periods using nested-periodic-subspaces

2017 51st Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers, 2017
Can the MUSIC algorithm be used for period estimation? Prior works in this direction were based on modifying the search over the conventional complex-exponentials based pseudospectrum to look for harmonically spaced peaks. For applications where the period of the discrete signal can be well approximated by integers, this paper proposes much simpler ...

Period Music

Tempo, 1952
In his presidential lecture to the English Association Mr. A. L. Rowse consoled his audience by the remark that if “writing is not at a high peak at the moment, English painting is enjoying a more creative period than it has since the eighteenth century, and English music than at any time since the Elizabethans.” I am not competent to discuss this ...

Rhythm and periodicity detection in polyphonic music

1999 IEEE Third Workshop on Multimedia Signal Processing (Cat. No.99TH8451), 1999
We describe a novel approach for detecting perfect and imperfect periodicities in polyphonic music. The approach relies on beat and rhythm information extracted from the raw data after low-pass filtering. The beat and rhythm information is analyzed with a binary tree or trellis tree parsing depending on the length of the pauses in the underlying signal.

Meter and Periodicity in Musical Performance

Journal of New Music Research, 2001
This paper presents a psychoacoustically based method of data reduction motivated by the desire to analyze the rhythm of musical performances. The resulting information is then analyzed by the “Periodicity Transform” (which is based on a projection onto “periodic subspaces”) to locate periodicities in the resulting data.
