How to Find a Needle in a Haystack From the Insider Threat to Solo Perpetrators

How to Find a Needle in a Haystack From the Insider Threat to Solo Perpetrators

Searching for a needle in a haystack is an important task in several contexts of data analysis and decision-making. Examples include identifying the insider threat within an organization the prediction of failure in industrial production or pinpointing the unique signature of a solo perpetrator such as a school shooter or a lone wolf terrorist. It is a challenge different from that of identifying a rare event (e. g. a tsunami) or detecting anomalies because the needle is not easily distinguished from the haystack. This challenging context is imbued with particular difficulties from the lack of sufficient data to train a machine learning model through the identification of the relevant features and up to the painful price of false alarms which might cause us to question the relevance of machine learning solutions even if they perform well according to common performance criteria. In this book Prof. Neuman approaches the problem of finding the needle by specifically focusing on the human factor from solo perpetrators to insider threats. Providing for the first time a deep critical multidimensional and methodological analysis of the challenge the book offers data scientists and decision makers a deep scientific foundational approach combined with a pragmatic practical approach that may guide them in searching for a needle in a haystack. | How to Find a Needle in a Haystack From the Insider Threat to Solo Perpetrators

The Music of George Harrison

The Music of George Harrison

George Harrison was one of the most prolific popular music composers of the late 20th century. During his tenure with the Beatles he caught the wave of 1960s pop culture and began channeling its pervasive influence through his music. Often described as The Invisible Singer his solo recordings reveal him to be an elusive yet essential element in the Beatles’ sound. The discussion of George Harrison’s Beatle tracks featured in the text employs a Songscape approach that blends accessible music analysis with an exploration of the virtual space created on the sound recording. This approach is then used to explore Harrison’s extensive catalog of solo works which due to their varied cultural sources seem increasingly like early examples of Global Pop. In that sense the music of George Harrison may ultimately be viewed as an important locus for pan-cultural influence in the 20th century making this book essential reading for those interested in the history of songwriting and recording as well as the cultural study of popular music.

Lennon and McCartney Painting with Sound

Lennon and McCartney Painting with Sound

Lennon and McCartney: Painting with Sound explores the work of two of the most influential composers of the twentieth century. Five decades after the breakup of the Beatles the music of John Lennon and Paul McCartney continues to fascinate and inspire. Evidence suggests that their uniquely eclectic approach can be traced back to the Liverpool College of Art. Following on that idea this book explores the creative dialogue between John Lennon and Paul McCartney both with the Beatles and on their own that grew out of that early influence. The book is presented in three sections: I. Stretching the Canvas considers the Liverpool College of Art as the backdrop for John and Paul’s early collaborations with painter and musician Stuart Sutcliffe. This is followed by discussions of select works created by the Beatles between 1962-69. II. Extending the Space focuses on the long-distance creative dialogue between Lennon and McCartney as demonstrated in their respective solo recordings of the 1970s. III. New Colours considers the final works of the Lennon and McCartney creative dialogue as well as various McCartney solo projects released in the years that followed Lennon’s death in 1980. Here the focus is on Paul’s development as a painter its effect on his creativity and his subsequent efforts to establish the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts as a world-class arts conservatory. | Lennon and McCartney Painting with Sound

Death and (Re) Birth of J.S. Bach Reconsidering Musical Authorship and the Work-Concept

Death and (Re) Birth of J.S. Bach Reconsidering Musical Authorship and the Work-Concept

While the study and redefinition of the notion of authorship and its relationship to the idea of the literary work have played a central role in recent research on literature semiotics and related disciplines its impact on contemporary musicology is still limited. Why? What implications would a reconsideration of the author- and work-concepts have on our understanding of the creative musical processes? Why would such a re-examination of these regulative concepts be necessary? Could it emerge from a post-structuralist revision of the notion of musical textuality? In this book Trillo takes the …Bach… project a collection of new music based on Johann Sebastian Bach’s Partita No. 1 for solo violin BWV 1002 as a point of departure to sketch some critical answers to these fundamental questions raise new ones and explore their musicological implications. | Death and (Re) Birth of J.

Bahlabelelelani – Why Do They Sing? Gender and Power in Contemporary Women’s Songs

Bahlabelelelani – Why Do They Sing? Gender and Power in Contemporary Women’s Songs

Indigenous societies steeped in patriarchy have various channels through which they deal with abusive characteristics of relations in some of these communities. One such route is through songs which sanction women to voice that which bound by societal expectations they would not commonly be able to say. This book focuses on the nature of women’s contemporary songs in the rural community of Zwelibomvu near Pinetown in KwaZulu-Natal. It aims to answer the question ‘Bahlabelelelani – Why do they sing?’ drawing on several discourses of gender and power to examine the content and purposes of the songs. Restricted by custom women resort to allusive languages such as found in ukushoza a song genre that includes poetic elements and solo dance songs. The songs when read in conjunction with the interviews and focus group discussions present a complex picture of women’s lives in contemporary rural KwaZulu-Natal and they offer their commentary on what it means to be a woman in this society. | Bahlabelelelani – Why Do They Sing?

Abortion and the Private Practice of Medicine

Abortion and the Private Practice of Medicine

Originally published in 1986 Abortion and the Private Practice of Medicine was the first book to look at abortion from the perspective of physicians in private practice. Jonathan B. Imber spent two years observing and interviewing all twenty-six of the obstetrician-gynecologists in “Daleton ” a city that did not have an abortion clinic. The decision as to whether when and how to perform abortions was therefore essentially up to the individual doctor. Imber begins the volume with a historical survey of medical views on abortion and the medical profession’s response to the legalization of abortion in the United States. Quoting extensively from his interviews he looks at various characteristics of doctors that may affect their professional opinion on abortion: their age gender religious background and length of residence in the community; the nature of their training and prior experience; and the setting of the practice (whether group or solo). Imber found that the physicians’ reasons for agreeing or refusing to perform abortions revealed considerable differences of opinion about how they construe their responsibilities.

Exhibiting Outside the Academy Salon and Biennial 1775-1999 Alternative Venues for Display

Exhibiting Outside the Academy Salon and Biennial 1775-1999 Alternative Venues for Display

In recent years there has been increasing scholarly interest in the history of museums academies and major exhibitions. There has been however little to no sustained interest in the histories of alternative exhibitions (single artwork solo artist artist-mounted entrepreneurial privately funded ephemeral etc. ) with the notable exception of those publications that deal with situations involving major artists or those who would become so - for example J. L. David’s exhibition of Intervention of the Sabine Women (1799) and The First Impressionist Exhibition of 1874 - despite the fact that these sorts of exhibitions and critical scholarship about them have become commonplace (and no less important) in the contemporary art world. The present volume uses and contextualizes eleven case studies to advance some overarching themes and commonalities among alternative exhibitions in the long modern period from the late-eighteenth to the late-twentieth centuries and beyond. These include the issue of control in the interrelation and elision of the roles of artist and curator and the relationship of such alternative exhibitions to the dominant modes structures of display and cultural ideology. | Exhibiting Outside the Academy Salon and Biennial 1775-1999 Alternative Venues for Display

Lighting Dance A Study of Technical Philosophical and Psychological Shadows

Lighting Dance A Study of Technical Philosophical and Psychological Shadows

Lighting Dance pioneers the discussion of the ability of lighting design to foreground shadow in dance performances. Through a series of experiments integrating light shadow and improvised dance movement it highlights and analyses what it advances as an innovative expression of shadow in dance as an alternative to more conventional approaches to lighting design. Different art forms such as painting film and dance pieces from Loie Fuller the Russell Maliphant Dance Company Elevenplay Pilobolus and the Tao Dance Theater served to inspire and contextualise the study. From lighting to psychology from reviews to academic books shadows are examined as a symbolic and manipulative entity. The book also presents the dance solo Sombreiro which was created to echo the experiments with light shadow and movement aligned to an interpretation of cultural shadow (Jung 1954 in Samuels Shorter and Plaut 1986; Casement 2006; Ramos 2004; Stein 2004; and others). The historical development of lighting within dance practices is also outlined providing a valuable resource for lighting designers dance practitioners and theatre goers interested in the visuality of dance performances. | Lighting Dance A Study of Technical Philosophical and Psychological Shadows

Love's Labor Essays on Women Equality and Dependency

Love's Labor Essays on Women Equality and Dependency

This new edition of Eva Feder Kittay’s feminist classic Love’s Labor explores how theories of justice and morality must be reconfigured when intersecting with care and dependency and the failure of policy towards women who engage in care work. The work is hailed as a major contribution to the development of an ethics of care. Where society is viewed as an association of equal and autonomous persons the work of caring for dependents figures neither in political theory nor in social policy. While some women have made many gains equality continues to elude many others as in large measure social institutions fail to take into account the dependency of childhood illness disability and frail old age and fail to adequately support those who care for dependents. Using a narrative of her experiences caring for her disabled daughter Eva Feder Kittay discusses the relevance of her analysis of dependency to significant cognitive disability. She explores the significance of dependency work by analyzing John Rawls' influential liberal theory and two examples of public policy—welfare reform and family leave—to show how theory and policy fail women when they miss the centrality of dependency to issues of justice. This second edition has updated material on care workers her adult disabled daughter and key changes in welfare reform. Using a mix of personal reflection and political argument this new edition of a classic text will continue to be an innovative and influential contribution to the debate on searching for greater equality and justice for women. Love’s Labor has spoken to audiences around the world and has had an impact on readers from many countries and in many disciplines: philosophy sociology disability studies nursing. It has been required and supplementary reading on many undergraduate courses on Ethics Feminist Ethics Gender and Religious Ethics Political Theory Bioethics and Disability Studies. It has been translated into Italian Japanese and Korean. | Love's Labor Essays on Women Equality and Dependency

The Places of Van Morrison’s Songwriting Venturing in the Slipstream

The Places of Van Morrison’s Songwriting Venturing in the Slipstream

What can we learn about Van Morrison’s life and work as a songwriter through his songs? This book looks closely at the lyrics and music from a selection of his songs. Some are very well-known - ‘Brown Eyed Girl’ ‘Cleaning Windows’ and ‘The Healing Game’. Others are less familiar. Through these songs the book offers insights into some of the most important ideas that the songwriter has explored across his five-decade plus career starting from the Them period and extending through his solo albums. These readings show how thinking about Morrison’s use of place provides a specific lens that contributes to a greater understanding of his art. The songs are organized into chapters that reflect many of the important places in Morrison’s work as he ventured professionally and imaginatively away from the places of his upbringing towards a wider musical world. These places are in city streetscapes and country landscapes – in home places of streets and ditches in the enclosed spaces of rooms in the expansive reaches of the natural world in indeterminate and specific foreign lands. A picture emerges of the journey that Van Morrison details through his songs one that sees him first wandering as a boy through his East Belfast haunts and then venturing out to a wider world away from this local place. | The Places of Van Morrison’s Songwriting Venturing in the Slipstream

Towards Good Lighting for the Stage Aesthetic Theory for Theatrical Lighting Design

Towards Good Lighting for the Stage Aesthetic Theory for Theatrical Lighting Design

Towards Good Lighting for the Stage: Aesthetic Theory for Theatrical Lighting Design explores the theoretical underpinnings of effective lighting design from conceptualization to live performance. Through an investigation of the author’s own aesthetic point of view—grounded in a broad investigation of art and design that blends pop culture and fine art theory and practice—this book documents the author’s thinking on the design process to fill the unexplored gap between an aesthetic philosophy and its expression in composition. Redefinitions of the artist artwork and spectator link beauty and artistic efficacy to arrive at a set of principles for assessment that demand that contemporary lighting design surpass utilitarian visibility to become a vital part of the total artwork that is a theatrical production. Inspired by the movements of the broader art and design worlds of the mid-19th century through present day—citing influences as diverse as Jennifer Tipton Lois Tyson Dieter Rams and Dave Hickey—this book charts a course from the artistic team’s dramaturgical work to a solo studio concept to the tech table. Engaging and wide-ranging Towards Good Lighting for the Stage synthesizes years of cross-disciplinary research and case studies of the author’s own work into provocative reading for practitioners of lighting design advanced students and academics as well as those interested in connecting theatrical practice aesthetic theory and visual art. | Towards Good Lighting for the Stage Aesthetic Theory for Theatrical Lighting Design
