Sound Recording As a Factor of Evolution of the Piano Performing Style in XX Century

Роль звукозаписи как источника и катализатора изменений, произошедших в фортепианном исполнительстве в XX веке, мало исследована в отечественном музыкознании. Цель автора — восполнить данный пробел, раскрыв влияние звукозаписи на развитие фортепианного искусства. В центре внимания — репертуарные предпочтения, возможности и подходы исполнителей; анализ производится в рамках предложенной периодизации звукозаписи (ранней, классической, цифровой). В эпоху ранней звукозаписи трансформация исполнительских средств связана с временны´ м аспектом. Период классической звукозаписи характеризуется стремлением к идеальному исполнению в студии звукозаписи, что обусловлено технологическими открытиями в области обработки звука, становлением типа пианиста-интерпретатора и возникновением типа исполнителя-постмодерниста. Идеалы качества эпохи цифровой записи привели к формированию высоких стандартов концертных исполнений, а развитие компьютерных технологий — к появлению новых исполнительских техник. В статье представлены основные стилевые тенденции, возникшие под влиянием звукозаписи, обозначены основные проблемы современного исполнительства. The role of the sound recording as a source and catalyst of changes that took place in the piano performance in the XX century is researched rather little in the native musicology. The aim of the author is to fill this gap by examining the influence of the sound recording on the piano performing style. In the spotlight there are performing techniques, repertoire preferences and interpretative approaches which are analyzed within the framework of the suggested periodization of the sound recording — early, classical, digital. In the days of early sound recording, transformation of performing techniques is connected with the temporal aspect. The period of classical sound recording is characterized by the desire of an ideal performance in the studio of sound recording, owing to technological discoveries in the area of sound processing, and emergence of such types of musicians as pianist-interpreter and postmodern performer. The ideals of quality of the era of digital recording led to formation of high standards in concert performance, and development of computer technologies created new performing techniques. The article presents the main stylistic trends which appeared under the influence of sound recording, and outlines the main problems of the contemporary performance.

Generation of a Multi-Scale Historic BIM-GIS with Digital Recording Tools and Geospatial Information

This paper discusses the creation of an integrated historic BIM-GIS for the complex of San Pietro al Monte, an important Romanesque monument in Civate (Italy) inscribed in the UNESCO tentative list with other seven medieval Benedictine settlements. The reason behind the choice of an integrated H-BIM-GIS solution is motivated by the large extension of the considered area (about 30 km2) and the need for multi-scale digital information integrated into a 3D parametric environment. The model includes geospatial information at a territorial scale and in situ digital data capturing the complex at a higher level of detail. The work aims at exploring the pros and cons of a novel parametric 3D environment able to integrate both BIM and GIS data, methods, and processing tools in the case of historic buildings and sites.

Impact of Masks on Speech Recognition in Adult Patients with and without Hearing Loss

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The coronavirus 2019 pandemic has altered how modern healthcare is delivered to patients. Concerns have been raised that masks may hinder effective communication, particularly in patients with hearing loss. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of masks on speech recognition in adult patients with and without self-reported hearing loss in a clinical setting. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Adult patients presenting to an otolaryngology clinic were recruited. A digital recording of 36 spondaic words was presented to each participant in a standard clinical exam room. Each word was recorded in 1 of 3 conditions: no mask, surgical mask, or N95 mask. Participants were instructed to repeat back the word. The word recognition score was determined by the percent correctly repeated. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 45 participants were included in this study. Overall, the mean word recognition score was 87% without a mask, 78% with a surgical mask, and 61% with an N95 mask. Among the 23 subjects (51.1%) with self-reported hearing loss, the average word recognition score was 46% with an N95 mask compared to 79% in patients who reported normal hearing (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.001). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Our results suggest that masks significantly decrease word recognition, and this effect is exacerbated with N95 masks, particularly in patients with hearing loss. As masks are essential to allow for safe patient-physician interactions, it is imperative that clinicians are aware they may create a barrier to effective communication.

Automated ECG Interpretation—A Brief History from High Expectations to Deepest Networks

This article traces the development of automated electrocardiography from its beginnings in Washington, DC around 1960 through to its current widespread application worldwide. Changes in the methodology of recording ECGs in analogue form using sizeable equipment through to digital recording, even in wearables, are included. Methods of analysis are considered from single lead to three leads to twelve leads. Some of the influential figures are mentioned while work undertaken locally is used to outline the progress of the technique mirrored in other centres. Applications of artificial intelligence are also considered so that the reader can find out how the field has been constantly evolving over the past 50 years.

INTEGRATION BETWEEN BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR HISTORIC BUILDINGS AND SITES: HISTORIC-BIM-GIS

The paper presents a novel prototype of integrated Historic BIM-GIS able to deal with multi-source, -scale, and -temporal information. It combines elements from the cartographic scale to a more detailed level of detail towards the building. It can be defined as a 3D virtual environment with an associate (geo)database able to encapsulate heterogeneous data not limited to products derived from the geometric survey, notwithstanding digital recording and its deliverables play a fundamental role. The system also provides a good interoperability level so that BIM and GIS software can exchange information, avoiding the implementation of functions and tools already available in other software packages. The example proposed in this contribution is related to the system of fortified structures around the city of Sondrio. Here, a single 3D environment was developed to encapsulate information from the cartographic level in an area of more than 135 km2 to the scale of 1:1 for specific architectural elements.

Reconsidering the Topography of al-Balīd (Oman): A Preliminary Review of the Graphical Documentation

In the last 70 years several groups investigated the ancient site of al-Balīd. From Costa onwards all researchers placed their spatial data on the grid provided by the Italian archaeologist; in order to precise the positioning of the monuments and of the single excavations, the scholars sub-divided the original grid in smaller units. Jansen introduced a completely 3D digital recording system by the use of total station. Isenberg improved the information system using more sophisticated and accurate spatial technologies. From Jansen onwards all data were geo-referenced according to local cartographical coordinates. The paper focused on the graphical documentation provided by each research group and on the methodology underlying the data.

From roadman to royalties: Inter-representational value and the hypercapitalist impulses of grime

This paper explores how digital media can cause the representational value of rap artists to be transformed. Ubiquitous access to digital recording, production and distribution technologies grants rappers an unprecedented degree of representational autonomy, meaning they are able to integrate the street aesthetic into their lyrics and music videos, and thus create content that offers a more authentic representation of their (past) lives. Sidestepping the mainstream music industry, the digital enables these integrations and bolsters the hypercapitalist impulses of content creators. I illustrate these ideas through a case study of grime artist, Bugzy Malone, who uses his music to narrate his evolution from a life of criminality (selling drugs on the street; a ‘roadman’), to one in which his representational value is recognised by commercial brands who want to partner with him because of his street credibility (collecting ‘royalties’). Bugzy Malone’s commercial success is not predicated on a departure from his criminal past, but the deliberate foregrounding of it as a marker of authenticity. The representational autonomy provided by digital media can therefore enable artists to maximise the affective cachet of the once-criminal self.
