Pierre-Michel MengerCollège de FranceAnnée 2023-2024Sociologie du travail créateurColloque - Boulez : l'invention au pouvoir ? Les années 1975-1995 - « …quasi vidua … ». On Anthèmes 2Session 4 : La musique en questionIntervenant :Gerald BennettFondateur et Ancien Directeur de l'Institute of Computer Music and Sound Technology, Université des Arts de ZurichColloque organisé pour le centenaire de la naissance de Pierre Boulez par le Pr Pierre-Michel Menger, chaire Sociologie du travail créateur, et Nicolas Donin, professeur de musicologie à l'université de Genève.Avec le soutien de la Fondation du Collège de France et de son grand mécène LVMH.RésuméPierre Boulez reminds us that one of the sources of the form of Anthèmes 1 is the plainchant Lamentations of Jeremiah, which he sang in his youth during the First Nocturne service on Holy Thursday. The most striking feature of this piece is the setting of the Hebrew letters that separate the various verses of the text. Boulez translates this idea by using the harmonics of the solo violin to separate the sections of Anthèmes, referring to the harmonics as "letters." He insists that he uses only the structure of the Lamentations in his music, not their content. In reality, however, the music itself often suggests the opposite, as examples will show. It is unlikely that a reader as sensitive as Boulez would refer to a work with such expressive content solely for formal reasons.During a discussion of Anthèmes 2 with Peter Szendy on the occasion of its first French performance in October 1997, Boulez explains why he abandoned his belief that music had to be athematic. Jonathan Goldman has admirably described and illustrated what constitutes a "theme" in the Anthèmes pieces. It is important to note how the use of themes influences the task of composition by adding an expressive dimension. At the same time, the choice of digital techniques to create the electronic accompaniment in Anthèmes 2 strongly defines and limits its expressive potential. The thematic material in the piece fulfills many functions: the articulation of large-scale form, the furnishing of coherent musical patterns on which to elaborate, dramatic contrast, historical reference, the creation of a musical-metaphorical context for the composition. All of these will be discussed with examples.

Sight Village exhibitions are a great way to learn more about products and services designed for blind and partially sighted people in your area.  Barry Snell has been chatting to many of the exhibitors & managed to catch up with Ian Kennedy from Sight & Sound Technology.

How can Cereset sound technology treat brain imbalances and create a relaxed and harmonious mental state? In this episode, Jason Prall and Andrew DeGregorio discuss how they learn about Cereset. They mention that they both faced health challenges that traditional medicine couldn't solve. They turned to alternative healing methods and eventually met, forming a deep bond. Together, they explored different healing approaches and decided to start Cereset, a place offering unique healing technologies to help others. Their goal is to make a positive difference in people's lives by easing suffering and promoting well-being. They were skeptical at first, but seeing Andrew's amazing results and hearing other success stories changed their minds. They explain deeper about Cereset which uses sensors to read brain activity and plays tones back to the person. This helps the brain recognize and fix any problems. They realized that many health issues come from stuck patterns in the body, and Cereset helps unstick them, letting the body heal itself naturally. Cereset is like a brain tune-up using sound. It relaxes the mind and creates new pathways for well-being. It helps with sleep problems, anxiety, PTSD, concussions, and other issues related to brain balance. Discover how Cereset focuses on overall brain harmony instead of targeting specific conditions, which can help with many different problems caused by brain imbalance. Tune in now!Highlights:-Serious illness experienced by Jason and Andrew-Importance of addressing stuck patterns in chronic illnesses for healing-Power of sound in healing-The concept of Cereset balancing the brain internally to support various conditionsResources MentionedWebsite | www.cereset.comInstagram | @ceresetsandiegoAbout the Guest:Jason Prall is a health educator, practitioner, author, & filmmaker.

What stories remain hidden behind one of the most significant inventions of the nineteenth century? Kaleidophonic Modernity: Transatlantic Sound, Technology, and Literature (Fordham University Press, 2023) reexamines the development of mechanical sound recording technology by charting the orbits of writers, scientists, and artists in France and the United States. Working between comparative literature, the history of science, and urban studies, Dr. Brett Brehm builds a bridge between visual culture and sound studies. Kaleidophonic Modernity places the poet and inventor Charles Cros and his lover, the celebrated concert pianist and salonnière Nina de Villard at the heart of modern aesthetic and scientific vanguards. Cros's scientific endeavors ranged from color photography, to telecommunications, to mechanical sound reproducibility. In his poetry the Surrealists found an ancestor and inspiration. His literary and scientific works prove startling and relevant to predicaments of technological media in his own time and ours. For nearly twenty years Nina de Villard presided over a supremely daring intellectual salon.

What stories remain hidden behind one of the most significant inventions of the nineteenth century? Kaleidophonic Modernity: Transatlantic Sound, Technology, and Literature (Fordham University Press, 2023) reexamines the development of mechanical sound recording technology by charting the orbits of writers, scientists, and artists in France and the United States. Working between comparative literature, the history of science, and urban studies, Dr. Brett Brehm builds a bridge between visual culture and sound studies. Kaleidophonic Modernity places the poet and inventor Charles Cros and his lover, the celebrated concert pianist and salonnière Nina de Villard at the heart of modern aesthetic and scientific vanguards. Cros's scientific endeavors ranged from color photography, to telecommunications, to mechanical sound reproducibility. In his poetry the Surrealists found an ancestor and inspiration. His literary and scientific works prove startling and relevant to predicaments of technological media in his own time and ours. For nearly twenty years Nina de Villard presided over a supremely daring intellectual salon.

Welcome and happy new year from all at Sight and Sound Technology. Our podcast returns for a new year with an exciting new addition. We have introduced podcast transcripts starting with this episode. We hope this will be of use to our deafblind friends, and also to anyone who simply wants to quickly find content without having to listen to the show. Please let us know if this feature is helpful. On this episode Stuart meets Fraser Fleming and Graham Gunning, founders of Triple Tap Tech, a charity in Glasgow who advise, help, support and train people with a visual impairment on everything to do with technology.

The blind community is not without its fair share of innovators: Louis Braille himself, of course, alongside many others who brought us the braille code we know and love today. Elsewhere, the blind community has invented talking book players, screen readers, notetakers and so much more. For blind musicians, many of the most notable technological innovations in the past thirty years or so have come from Dancing Dots, makers of the Goodfeel braille music translator, Cake Talking scripts for the Sonar Digital Audio Workstation, and Sibelius Speaking. In this episode, we catch up with its founder, Bill McCann. We talk about how he came to found Dancing Dots and what his products do, before discussing the advantages of his favourite braille displays – the QBraille XL and Canute 360 – and the mechanics of reading music using refreshable braille.

Ruth Gallagher-Carr is one half of the duo behind the hugely successful Getting AT Ready conference, which she developed alongside her colleague Carolyne Smith. She's also been responsible for building a thriving presence for Sight and Sound Technology in Scotland, and, for working as part of a team to develop a robust quality management system in the company. As Ruth prepares to move to the next chapter in her career, Stuart sits down with her for a reflective chat about her time with Sight and Sound Technology and almost 17 years in total working in the sight loss sector. Merry Christmas from the Sight and Sound Technology podcast team!

We are delighted to be collaborating with Sight and Sound Technology for our inaugural online conference to mark World Braille Day. Find out more in this episode, and register for the conference here.

As head of Sight and Sound Technology, the largest supplier and distributor of technology and devices designed for visually-impaired and blind individuals, Glenn Tookey wouldn't be disappointed if he went out of business. But until there are cures for all eye diseases, he remains a strong advocate for his customers. OIS Podcast host Rob Rothman, MD, kicked off a lively discussion with Tookey that covers the company's beginnings four decades ago, how he  evaluates new products, and how he plans to bring those products to more patients. Tookey's tech industry career includes stints in telecom, data processing, and even pinball machine repair. In 2008, he saw a mobile phone designed to help people with vision loss. Inspired by the design and the purpose, he later bought Sight and Sound.As CEO, Tookey frequently evaluates new technology from emerging inventors and developers. He also readily advises on product design, market access, and other product launch elements for products that aren't ready for prime time. Too often, he said, innovators fail to address pricing (too expensive), market access (no reimbursement), or usability (too obtrusive or complicated).Moving forward, Tookey plans to stay on top of new technology and widen the company's reach. Connecting patients to products is as much of a challenge in the UK and Ireland as it is in the United States, but he's hoping to change that. Tookey wants to raise awareness with ophthalmologists, occupational therapists, opticians, and teachers to promote referrals and to bring greater independence to the blind and visually impaired. Listen to this podcast to discover: What Tookey sees as the most exciting solutions for creating independence for the visually impaired and the blind.The potential for augmented reality and virtual reality in this space. The reimbursement challenges for visual impairment hardware, software, and services in the UK, Ireland, and the US.The biggest mistake inventors make when developing devices for the visually impaired or blind.Click “play” to listen.

Hello and welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! You've probably heard me talk a lot about the importance of understanding how your environment affects your health, mindset, emotional wellness and perspective in life. It's truly indisputable that everything: from the food we eat, to the media we consume, to the people and creatures we interact with on a daily basis shape who (and how!) we are in a very real way. That's why I am thrilled to present you with today's guest, Ross Newkirk, whose inventions actively upgrade the coherence of the immediate environment while harmonizing the electromagnetic fields and constant distractions we each face in our world today. Let's be honest… It's really difficult to find your joy while constantly navigating the many stressors and responsibilities of the typical lifestyle! I have to tell you that Ross Newkirk's Core Harmonizer absolutely changed my LIFE in that regard, and I don't make that claim lightly! You'll hear my personal story about my first time using it in this episode… An amazing experience that completely took me by surprise. In this episode you can also look forward to hearing about coherence, the importance of activating discernment and how to intuitively find your path and purpose. Ross shares insight into his spiritual upbringing, the pain of suddenly losing both parents and his healing journey through grief. He describes the human condition beautifully, and this episode is full of his unique sayings and ideas surrounding identity, self-criticism, spiritual connection, loneliness, creativity and healing. We also talk about EMF's, Marcel Vogel and Vogel-cut crystals, the many inventions of Ross's father and the three "brains" in the human body. *SPECIAL GIFT ALERT* Ross and his team have generously offered a great discount for my listeners!

Today I'm joined by Allyn Evans, the Executive Director of the Monroe Institute. In today's episode, Allyn discusses how Edgar Cayce opened her eyes to the reality that we are more than our physical bodies, and how her spiritual exploration eventually led her to the Monroe Institute. We then discuss the history of the Institute and the development of binaural beats, sound technology and frequency following response. We next discuss the preparatory process for Monroe's “Gateway Experience” and how its used to support higher states of conscious awareness. From there, we talk about ongoing projects at the Monroe Institute including Allyn's spoon bending course and the Expand app. We then talked about how the author of The Men Who Stare at Goats tried and failed to debunk the Institute's remote viewing course. Next, we talk about the military and intelligence community's work with the Gateway Process. We end the conversation talking about sound healing for chronic illness, miracles, and non-physical friends. Outros for this and all episodes available at entangledpodcast.substack.com. Please enjoy!

Listen in through the next few episodes as we will bring you lots more conversations and interviews we have recorded at Sight Village.
