Infernal Sound Cues: Aural Geographies and the Politics of Noise [PDF]
Modern Drama, 2005 Every time Hamlet dies, “the world,” as Shakespearian scholar Wes Folkerth puts it, “fills up again with sound […] To hear, Hamlet tells us with his final breath, is what it is to be alive”. While that sentiment would be rightly and hotly contested by the Deaf community, it strikes those of us who can hear and who have no experience of Deaf culture as

Thinking geo/graphically: The interdisciplinary space between graphic design and cultural geography [PDF]
, 2012 In relation to the understanding and representation of everyday life and place, it is clear that many cultural geographers are beginning to explore what one might call “creative” qualitative research methods, the majority of which draw on the discipline ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Biomechanical‐to‐electrical energy conversion devices are uniquely suited for self‐driven physiological information monitoring and powering human–computer interaction systems. These devices based on micro‐/nanoarchitectured inorganic dielectric materials (MNIDMs) have shown ultrahigh electromechanical performance and thus great potential for practical ...

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Il suono come forma di conoscenza dello spazio che ci circonda. Una prospettiva musicologica [PDF]
, 2015 In contemporary culture, a form of knowledge that privileges the sense of sight is prevailing, while it is often neglected how important hearing might be for the understanding of reality around us, especially of places, spaces and territories.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This work introduces a versatile and straightforward approach for directly fabricating electrospun 3D nanofibrous sponge using a selection of solvents, avoiding potentially toxic additives or additional steps. The most important novelty in this study is a one‐step electrospinning process that simultaneously imparts three‐dimensionality and ...

Comments on Allan Bomhard, “The Origins of Proto-Indo-European: The Caucasian substrate hypothesis” [PDF]
, 2019 The main claims of Bomhard's paper are that PIE originated in Central Asia, which accounts for its Eurasiatic properties such as resemblant pronouns (Uralic, IE, Kartvelian, Turkic, Mongolic, Tungusic) and originally agglutinating morphology; then it ...

Moving sonic geographies: realising the Eerie countryside in music and sound
cultural geographies, 2022 This paper investigates how sound produces and transforms space and place as it moves and travels. In charting the movement of sound from field recording to music studio, and from rehearsal to performance space, this paper examines the aesthetic and affective geographies that are developed and the consequences of this travel.
