Recording Studio Design

Recording Studio Design

Recording Studio Design Fourth Edition explains the key principles of successful studio design and construction using straightforward language and the use of practical examples appreciated by readers of previous editions. Updated to reflect new industry standards this fourth edition addresses improvements in cinema sound with specific attention paid to B-chain electroacoustic response and calibration. Using over 50 years’ experience author Philip Newell provides detail on the practical aspects of recording in various environments not only exploring the complex issues relating to the acoustics but also providing real-world solutions. While the book contains detailed discussions about performing rooms control rooms and mobile studios concepts of the infrastructures are also discussed because no studio can perform optimally unless the technical and human requirements are adequately provided for. In this new edition sound for cinema provides a platform for highlighting many wider electroacoustic topics in a way that is relatively easy to visualise. The way in which sound and vision interact is an important aspect of many modern multimedia formats. The new edition includes: A new Chapter 22 that will thoroughly reflect recently published SMPTE investigations which will drastically impact standards for cinema sound; The inclusion of new academic research and its practical applications; An entire new illustrated chapter on room construction principles; and The consolidation of ideas which were only emerging when the earlier editions were published.

The Artist-Philosopher and Poetic Hermeneutics On Trauma

The Artist-Philosopher and Poetic Hermeneutics On Trauma

Focusing on the aesthetic representation of trauma George Smith outlines the nexus points between poetics and hermeneutics and shows how a particular kind of thinker the artist-philosopher practices interpretation in an entirely different way from traditional hermeneutics. Taking a transhistorical and global view Smith engages artists writers and thinkers from Western and non-Western periods regions and cultures. Thus we see that poetic hermeneutics reconstitutes philosophy and art as hybridizations of art and science the artist and the philosopher subject and object. In turn the artist-philosopher's poetic-hermeneutic reconstitution of philosophy and art is meant to transform human consciousness. This book will be of interest to artists and scholars working in studio practice art history aesthetics philosophy cultural studies history of ideas history of consciousness psychoanalytic studies myth studies literary studies and creative writing. | The Artist-Philosopher and Poetic Hermeneutics On Trauma

Decline and Reimagination in Cinematic New York

Decline and Reimagination in Cinematic New York

Decline and Reimagination in Cinematic New York examines the cinematic representation of New York from the mid-1960s through the mid-1980s placing the dominant discourse of urban decline in dialogue with marginal perspectives that reimagine the city along alternative paths as a resilient adaptive and endlessly inspiring place. Drawing on mainstream independent documentary and experimental films the book offers a multifaceted account of the power of film to imagine the city’s decline and reimagine its potential. The book analyzes how filmmakers mobilized derelict space and various articulations of “nature” as settings and signifiers that decenter traditional understandings of the city to represent New York alternately as a desolate wasteland a hostile wilderness a refuge and playground for outcasts a home to resilient and resourceful communities a studio for artistic experimentation an arcadia conducive to alternative social arrangements and a complex ecosystem. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of film studies media studies urban cinema urban studies and eco-cinema.

The book contributes to the critical understanding of inequitable abstracting processes’ growing determination of increasing parts of our world and foregrounds art’s position amidst these. It also functions as an interface both extending the fertile current discourse around care to a contemporary art focus and at the same time exploring how radical art practices might contribute to a politics rooted in an ethics of care. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history studio art philosophy and politics. | Art Labour Text and Radical Care
