Exploring the process of developing an improvisation concert within the framework of intensity of interaction
2012
This project views musical performances as collaborative practices, within which intensity is a relational phenomenon. The study is in one part a search for and an elaboration of various means of identifying, analyzing, and unveiling the elements, the variety of tendencies and tensions within musical performances. At the same time, the focus is on the musical communication in detail and as a whole. Therefore, the study speaks about the Intensity of Interaction. The presentation demonstrates the method of double stimulation, which is based on the work by Vygotski. Therefore, the study uses intensity ratings as part of the stimulated recall interview. This means that video recordings of the n…
Analysis of corporal gestures in dance students’ improvisations as a response to controlled musical parameters
2009
This study addresses the lack of a theoretical basis in dance piano accompaniment music geared towards dance. We study which musical features are perceptually most relevant and prompt specific dance movements and gestures, particularly in academic dance.11 musical pieces using an academic style (duration approximately 30s) were composed for the experiment and recorded on a piano. The pieces varied along 6 musical features: mode, tempo, time signature, intensity, anacrusis and syncopation. For each video-recorded improvisation, we analyzed the performance of movement and gesture types. One-way ANOVAs were performed taking each musical feature as a factor and each movement as a dependent vari…
Improvvisazione, rito, scrittura: Scelsi e lo statuto d'opera
2008
L'articolo analizza il corpus delle composizioni di Giacinto Scelsi (in particolar modo i Quartetti) confrontandolo con le categorie dello statuto dell'opera d'arte musicale, così come si è consolidato nella musica europea degli ultimi secoli.
Building composite indicators in tourism studies: Measurements and applications in tourism destination competitiveness
2017
Abstract Composite indicators are useful tools to synthesize and monitor multidimensional phenomena. The aim of this paper is twofold: to offer the methodological foundations to build composite indicators in tourism and to evaluate a set of currently available composite indicators. Tourism destination competitiveness indicators constitute the object of this contribution. Their definitions, concepts and measures are analyzed and their evaluation is performed through the application of an original protocol. The results highlight that several methodological issues still surround the measurement of destinations competitiveness indicators. This paper provides tourism scholars and practitioners w…
Tools of Improving the Quality of Information on Websites
2022
Purpose: Identification of methods and tools of improving the quality of information on websites. The investigated instruments, techniques and mechanisms are described with regard to solving problems of the information quality from the user’s perspective. Design/methodology/approach: Literature studies along with analysis of tools of improving the quality of information on websites. The analysis of tools for improving the quality of information was conducted within four areas: information integration, information validation, providing context of information, as well as adjusting information to be used. The presented examples concern, among others, information websites, government sites, onl…
Pd and PdAu on mesoporous silica for methane oxidation: Effect of SO2
2007
Abstract Palladium and gold–palladium catalysts supported on mesoporous silica were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation. They were characterized by XPS, XRD, BET, and FTIR acidity measurements. The activity was tested in the oxidation of methane under lean conditions. The effect of adding SO 2 to the reactant mixture was investigated. Test reactions were consecutively performed to evaluate the thermal stability and poisoning reversibility. The palladium catalyst performed quite well in terms of the light-off temperature ( T 50 300 °C) and SO 2 tolerance. Moreover, the activity, which decreased after a night treatment in SO 2 at 350 °C, was completely recovered in subsequent cycles. …
Hydrodesulfurization cobalt-based catalysts modified by gold
2007
Cobalt catalysts supported on amorphous SiO2 and ordered mesoporous silica (MCM-41) were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation. Gold was added by consecutive impregnation or by co-impregnation. The materials were characterised by XPS, XRD and TPR techniques and evaluated in the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of thiophene in order to investigate the effect of the noble metal on the structure and on the catalytic behaviour of the supported cobalt. Co/MCM-41 exhibited higher HDS activity and higher stability than the Co/SiO2. Moreover, in contrast to silica case, the gold impregnated MCM-41, produced an enhancement of the cobalt catalytic activity, and this is likely to be related to an incre…
