'Enigmatic territories': geographies of popular music

Hogan, Eileen
'Enigmatic territories': geographies of popular music
(2007)
Hogan, Eileen
Abstract:
Music is by nature geographical. Musical phrases have movement and direction, as though there are places in the music: quiet places and noisy places, places that offer familiarity, nostalgia or a sense of difference, while the dynamism of music reflects changing lives. Sound is a crucial element in the world we construct for ourselves, and the world that others construct and impose on us (Connell and Gibson 2003: p280).

‘Dancing’ with Nietzsche: his contribution in the redefinition of the value of individual’s physical dimension
(2017)
Adamakis, Manolis
Abstract:
Friedrich W. Nietzsche is one of the few important philosophers that often mention the art of dance in his works, especially in the Birth of Tragedy and Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The purpose of this study is to analyze Nietzsche's contribution to the philosophical foundation of dance. In addition, it will be attempted to present, through dance's approach, the primary role the philosopher assigns to the human physical dimension, in contrary to the intellectual one. Through petitions in the Athenian tragedy and especially through the relation between the Dionysian and Apollonian element, he approaches dance, which represents the absolute and collective affirmation of life. Furthermore, the "dancing" Zarathustra consents in secular life and creates new values through the dancing experience. He treats the body as equal, or even superior, to the soul, which is a simple component of the physical self. In conclusion, Nietzsche exalts dance and considers it an integral par...

"The Given Note": traditional music and modern Irish poetry
(2016)
Crosson, Seán
Abstract:
"The oldest records indicate that the performance of poetry in Gaelic Ireland was normally accompanied by music, providing a point of continuity with past tradition while bolstering a sense of community in the present. Music would also offer, particularly for poets writing in English from the eighteenth century onwards, a perceived authenticity, a connection with an older tradition perceived as being untarnished by linguistic and cultural division. While providing an innovative analysis of theoretical work in music and literary studies, this book examines how traditional Irish music, including the related song tradition (primarily in Irish), has influenced, and is apparent in, the work of Irish poets. While looking generally at where this influence is evident historically and in contemporary Irish poetry, this work focuses primarily on the work of six poets, three who write in English and three who write primarily in the Irish language: Thomas Kinsella, Seamus Heaney, Ciaran ...

“You’ll Never Kill Our Will To Be Free”: Damien Dempsey’s “Colony” as a critique of historical and contemporary colonialism
(2017)
Power, Martin J.; Dillane, Aileen; Devereux, Eoin
Abstract:
This article, through a musical, lyrical, and contextual analysis of the Irish recording artist Damien Dempsey’s song “Colony,” probes contemporary discourses concerning colonialism and postcolonialism. In presenting Dempsey’s work through this lens, we seek to interrogate how one singer employs protest song as a vehicle for social critique in a nuanced fashion. Our reading reveals different levels of meaning, in part dependent on contextual knowledge. Furthermore, the simple structure belies the complexity of the issues involved in any discussion of postcoloniality in Ireland and beyond, and because of this the song is rendered all the more potent and persuasive.

(In)Determinacy: incorporating openness in programmed music and performance
(2015)
Wentworth, Sara
Abstract:
This portfolio and commentary demonstrates the use of indeterminacy as a method for creating live music and theater performances. The included works draw from Dadaist and Surrealist collage, avant garde theater, contemporary art, and contemporary composition, and use code, networked media, and open performance systems to create scores and environments. These works deconstruct and reconstruct topics of psychology, communication, and motivation. Seeking a balance between control and chaos, fragmentation is used as a method of experimentation, allowing for chance, variation, and feedback between technologies and performers, creating what Umberto Eco termed ‘open works.’

1916 and Irish literature, culture and society: an introduction

1916 and Irish literature, culture and society: an introduction
(2016)
Crosson, Seán
Abstract:
1916 marked an important moment in the development of modern Ireland. The continuing resonance of the Republican Rising that took place in that year was evident in the now much quoted editorial of The Irish Times (18 Nov 2010) the day after it was announced Ireland was to receive a financial bailout from the EU and IMF. "Was it for this?" the editorial asked, "the men of 1916 died." However, the Rising was but one of a range of significant events in 1916. Beyond the political sphere, 1916 marked the publication of James Joyce's first novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and also saw the foundation of Ireland's first indigenous film production company, The Film Company of Ireland, whose co-founder James Mark Sullivan was arrested after the Rising and charged with complicity. 1916 was also the year in which Ireland was aligned to Greenwich Mean Time for the first time, supplanting Dublin Mean Time, bringing the island temporally closer to the r...

(2017)
Doris, Margaret
Abstract:
This dissertation provides an investigation of British provincial cello playing in the lateeighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries through a comprehensive examination of the biographical histories and the pedagogical outputs of the cellists and cello treatise authors, Johann Georg Christoph Schetky (1737–1824), Joseph Reinagle (1752–1825) and John Gunn (c.1765–1823). Through re-evaluation and analysis of the biographical profiles of Schetky, Reinagle and Gunn, in combination with a contextual review of their cello treatises, a provincial trend in British cello treatise authorship has been revealed. Schetky was principal cellist with the Edinburgh Musical Society [EMS], whilst Reinagle was principal cellist of the Oxford Musical Society, after starting his career as a violinist with the EMS. Less is known of the performance profile of John Gunn, however analysis of his cello treatises reveals considerable evidence regarding his career path. The diverse musical careers of Schetky, R...

A Common Awareness and Knowledge Platform for Studying and Enabling Independent Living – CAPSIL
(2010)
Bennis, C.; McGrath, D.; Caulfield, B.; Knapp, R. Benjamin; Coghlan, Niall
Abstract:
The population of the world is growing older, and the balance of old to young is shifting so that by 2050 over 30% of the population is expected to be over 60 years old[1], with particularly high ratios of old to young in the EU, USA and Japan. CAPSIL is an FP7 Coordinating Support Action that incorporates a strategic international coalition of University and Industrial partners that already have extensive teams developing hardware/software/knowledge solutions to independent living based on user requirements. CAPSIL has two fundamental goals: 1. To carry out an analysis of the state of the art with regards to technology, healthcare and public policy in the EU, US and Japan for enabling independent living for older adults. Based on this analysis, develop a detailed roadmap for EU research to achieve effective and sustainable solutions for independent living 2. To support aging research by proposing procedures to incorporate all of these diverse solutions into WiKi entries (CAPSIL WiK...

A Comparative Analysis of Instrumental Teaching Provision in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Denmark
(1998)
Nolan, Rachel
Abstract:
This study is a comparative analysis of the provision for instrumental teaching in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Denmark. It attempts to redress the lack of research on this subject in the Republic of Ireland by examining European systems of music education and comparing the results with instrumental teaching provision in the Republic of Ireland. Chapter 1 comprises an overview of music education in the Republic of Ireland today. It consists of an examination of the value of music education and the value of music performance. Its significance in the Irish education system is gauged by a survey of music in primary and post-primary schools, and an assessment of levels of participation in the post-primary music examinations. Its economic significance as part of the cultural industries and its social significance as a leisure activity is also addressed. Chapter 1 also contains a brief summary of recent educational research in Great Britain. Chapters 2, 3, 4, an...

A Comparative Investigation of Industry, Academics' and Students' Perceptions on Essential Sustainability Knowledge, Competencies and Skills
(2017)
Scott, Lloyd
Abstract:
Design and construction educational programmes offered throughout the world play a vital role in sustainability education by producing professionals knowledgeable and competent in sustainable practices. It is extremely important to align the sustainability knowledge of the graduates to the industry expectations. This paper compares industry expectations about essential sustainability knowledge with both academics’ and students’ perceptions of requisite knowledge about sustainability. A three stage mixed research approach was adopted for the study. Essential sustainability knowledge expected from recent graduates was identified through literature review and surveys of design and construction firms. Students enrolled in design and construction programs were surveyed to measure their perceptions about requisite knowledge about sustainability. The position and perception of academics was analysed from survey data. Subsequently, the three sets of data were analysed using Simple Relative ...

A cure for the soul? The benefit of live music in the general hospital
(2007)
Moss, Hilary; Nolan, E; O'Neill, Desmond
Abstract:
From 2005 to 2006 a professional orchestra (the Irish Chamber Orchestra) performed in a university teaching hospital with the aims of bringing live music to patients who could not access traditional concert venues and of improving quality of life for patients and staff. This was the first time an orchestra was resident in a hospital in the Republic of Ireland. An independent contemporaneous evaluation was carried out to assess the benefit of live music for patients. Live music in hospital was found to enhance the quality of the aesthetic environment of the hospital, with both patients and staff stating that listening to live music helped them to relax, feel happier and more positive. Patients’ perception of the hospital was affected positively by live music in waiting areas. Music was found to have strong emotional effect and the individual preferences and experiences of patients need to be carefully taken into account when programming music in hospital. Listening to live music whil...

A Graph-Theoretic Approach to Timbre Matching
(2003)
Lysaght, Thomas; Timoney, Joseph
Abstract:
This paper presents a novel approach to the matching problem associated with timbre morphing. In particular a graph-theoretic technique, that of subgraph isomorphism, is applied to find correspondences between graph representations of a feature set for each timbre. The features are identified from Wigner distributions of the sounds using an adaptation of the McAulay-Quatieri sinusoidal analysis techniques. These features are then interpreted as nodes in graph representations of timbre. An audio morphing application can then be implemented by the application of spatial warping and linear interpolation of the Wigner distributions based on the correspondences established.

A Homomorphic Interpretation of the Complex Fm Expansion
(2012)
Timoney, Joseph; Lazzarini, Victor
Abstract:
A Complex Frequency Modulation (FM) signal is one whose instantaneous phase is time-varying according to a complicated dynamic function. This paper commences with the standard expansion for the spectrum of a Complex FM signal. It then explains how this can be interpreted in terms of a series of convolutions. The Homomorphic processing framework, in essence, provides a means by which a convolution operation can be related to a product operation which can then be transformed into an addition. This is very useful as it offers an approach for the fast computation of the theoretical spectra of complex FM signals, and further then leads to a cepstrum-like representation that will only display the modulation indices of the FM components. ‘Liftering’ of this representation can be carried out to alter the proportion of modulation components in the FM signal. Examples of the various stages of this processing will be given to illustrate its usefulness in the analysis and synthesis Complex FM s...

A method of morphing spectral envelopes of the singing voice for use with backing vocals
(2014)
Roddy, Matthew; Walker, Jacqueline
Abstract:
The voice morphing process presented in this paper is based on the observation that, in many styles of music, it is often desirable for a backing vocalist to blend his or her timbre with that of the lead vocalist when the two voices are singing the same phonetic material concurrently. This paper proposes a novel application of recent morphing research for use with a source backing vocal and a target lead vocal. The function of the process is to alter the timbre of the backing vocal using spectral envelope information extracted from both vocal signals to achieve varying degrees of blending. Several original features are proposed for the unique usage context, including the use of LSFs as voice morphing parameters, and an original control algorithm that performs crossfades between synthesized and unsynthesized audio on the basis of voiced/unvoiced decisions
