Book Description
Sound and Score brings together music expertise from prominent international researchers and performers to explore the intimate relations between sound and score and the artistic possibilities that this relationship yields for performers, composers and listeners. Considering "notation" as the totality of words, signs, and symbols encountered on the road to an accurate and effective performance of music, this book embraces different styles and periods in a comprehensive understanding of the complex relations between invisible sound and mute notation, between aural perception and visual representation, and between the concreteness of sound and the iconic essence of notation. Three main perspectives structure the analysis: a conceptual approach that offers contributions from different fields of enquiry (history, musicology, semiotics), a practical one that takes the skilled body as its point of departure (written by performers), and finally an experimental perspective that challenges state-of-the-art practices, including transdisciplinary approaches in the crossroads to visual arts and dance.

Understanding Game Scoring
Author: Mack Enns
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000473643
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
Understanding Game Scoring explores the unique collaboration between gameplay and composition that defines musical scoring for video games. Using an array of case studies reaching back into the canon of classic video games, this book illuminates the musical flexibility, user interactivity and sound programming that make game scoring so different from traditional modes of composition. Mack Enns explores the collaboration between game scorers and players to produce the final score for a game, through case studies of the Nintendo Entertainment System sound hardware configuration, and game scores, including the canonic scores for Super Mario Bros. (1985) and The Legend of Zelda (1986). This book is recommended reading for students and researchers interested in the composition and production of video game scores, as well as those interested in ludo-musicology.

New approaches to evaluation and management of dysphagia in neurological disease
Author: Masahiro Nakamori
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832553621
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
Neurological diseases tend to cause dysphagia which can lead to aspiration pneumonia, influencing patient mortality and morbidity, and increase the cost of medical care. Thus, it is essential to implement better evaluation, intervention, and rehabilitation for dysphagia. Many protocols and tools for assessing dysphagia, including aspiration, have been developed. Videofluoroscopic and videoendoscopic examinations are the current gold standard for assessing dysphagia. In addition, novel methods and instruments have been developed which are non-invasive and simple to implement. As for clinical intervention, several effective rehabilitation protocols as well as traditional methods have been utilized. Moreover, novel machines such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation, and transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the neck are being introduced and are expected to improve neuromuscular function.
