This document explores how technology has affected music listeners, creators, and audiences. It discusses three main topics: technological revolutions in music like recorded music and digital formats that changed how music is created and consumed; how technology impacts interaction with and ownership of music; and the idea of post-humanism in music where biology and technology or humans and machines collaborate to create art in new ways.

The document summarizes the economic, social, and political impacts of the Industrial Revolution through a series of photographs. [1] Economically, it depicts laborers being dismissed from factories and the growth of technological progress through steam engines and factories. [2] Socially, it shows the urbanization of cities as people moved near factories and poor working conditions in factories. [3] Politically, it images child labor, the working conditions that led the government to create laws protecting workers like the Mines Act and Factory Acts.Theme 6

This document discusses the themes of feminism, including the historical waves of feminism from the late 1800s to today. It also discusses how gender roles and descriptors are social constructs that have been challenged by feminism. Examples are given of how feminism has provided alternative narratives for analyzing culture and media, with the goal of making visible social constructs that normalize certain viewpoints. Outcomes can include either challenging or reinforcing these social constructs through cultural works and analyses from different perspectives.Theme 4

This document examines the relationship between language and values. It discusses how words can shape our experience of the world but that their meanings depend on context and the people involved in the communication. Pirandello is quoted emphasizing that the same words can be interpreted differently by different people. George Monbiot is also quoted criticizing how language can be used to justify harming others, such as describing killing as "mowing the lawn." The document examines how language can reveal power structures and be used to isolate and undermine groups. It provides examples of analyzing language for biases relating to gender, ethnicity, and invisibility.Theme 1

This document explores different ways that art and artists can be censored. It discusses three main themes: censorship by authority through silencing dissenting voices like musicians in Iraq and the band Pussy Riot in Russia, censorship through the idea of "post-truth" and controlling the narrative using social media as seen in protests, and internal self-censorship as a result of dominant cultural values being promoted by powerful groups in society.Theme 3

Globalization has led to greater interconnectedness and the spread of ideas worldwide. This has both positive and negative impacts on local communities and their cultures. While ideas and information are more widely shared, local identities formed by community traditions and customs have become more important. Some community cultures risk being lost as dominant cultures spread, though globalization also allows for new hybrid cultural forms to emerge from the mixing of distinct cultural traditions.Lesson 2

This document provides an overview of classes 16-17. There will be two assignments: an ethnography and a 2000-word dissertation. The document discusses various definitions of music from composers and musicians and aims to understand music as a cultural object that provides insights into both its producers and the society that receives it. It also briefly outlines the history of music from its origins to its commercialization and discusses Georgina Born's definition of music as having simultaneous sonic, discursive, visual, technological, mediatic, corporeal, and temporal forms of existence.Remix Culture!

Western popular culture includes many stories (with different formats and media, including musical works) concerning the man-machine relationships. Most of them with strong mythic resonances (from Greek and other mythologies nourishing Western culture) and more oriented towards the dystopian than utopian.
The influence of these visions of mythical background has provoked an interesting debate in recent decades on the man-machine relationship, mainly affecting the agency (who controls the actions of the machine?)
That debate moves (with much of its resonances) to the field of music, where the recent development of IAMUS intensifies the controversy. In that field, this debate is connected with other elements that have nurtured the "myth of music" (established within industrial society): especially, the author (genius) and the authenticity".
Understanding the man-machine relationships in the field of music, and ponder their future considering inventions like Iamus, requires the consideration of a number of ideas and items.
Among others, the "authorship" as an idea established within industrial society (and its system of cultural industries). Also, that all musical composer has always used in his/her creative activity any technology (mechanical, electrical, digital). This digital technology, by the way, is one of the factors that influence the profound changes affecting the various phases of musical activity, that show many examples like these: remix, music selection lists, Shazam, failure of fixed contexts for music listening, breaking the IP model ... But the use of such technology is not yet affecting several major foundations that established the cultural industries to guaranty the success to their products -and to boost consumption. For example, that the relationship between listener and music product relies on the existence of recognizable musical patterns and in the right combination between repetition and innovation.
This intervention observes the Iamus and its creations from the cultural analysis, which provides some of the key ideas with which to better understand the present and future of music.Lecture2 newmediacontext

The document discusses the evolving definitions of new media over time. Originally in the 1960s, McLuhan viewed new media as extensions of human senses that would facilitate new forms of social interaction and change. In the 1980s-90s, new media became associated with emerging digital technologies and their impact on media production. More recently, new media is understood as a phase in a medium's evolution where innovations are experimented with, and as a framework that facilitates social and cultural innovations through various technologies in a way that is independent of any single technology.Technology

Technology refers to the making and use of tools, machines, and techniques to solve problems or perform tasks. It involves the study of techniques and their applications. Technologies have significantly impacted humans and other species' ability to control their environments through inventions like controlled fire, tools, machines, and information technologies that have allowed global interaction. While technology has advanced economies and society, it also produces pollution, depletes resources, and raises ethical issues about its social and environmental impacts. Philosophical debates exist around whether technology improves or worsens the human condition.Technology

Technology refers to the collection of techniques, skills and processes used to develop goods and services. The simplest form of technology is the development and use of basic tools, while more advanced technologies like the printing press, telephone and Internet have lessened physical barriers to communication. Technology has many effects, including developing more advanced economies, allowing pollution and depletion of resources which harm the environment, and influencing societal values by raising new ethical issues.Lecture2 newmediacontext 2012

New media has been defined in various ways throughout history as new technologies emerged and evolved. Originally, McLuhan viewed new media as extensions of human senses that would facilitate mediated public spheres and social change. Popularly in the 1980s-90s, new media referred to emerging digital mass media. More recently, new media is understood as a perspective representing the activities of people using innovative technologies to extend and mediate human experiences through hybrid social and cultural spaces.Convergence culture

Convergence culture refers to the combination of old and new media technologies. There are five types of convergence: technological, economic, social/organic, cultural, and global. Technological convergence involves digitizing old media, economic convergence occurs when a company controls multiple media forms, social convergence is when people multitask with different media, cultural convergence allows media to be experienced across multiple platforms, and global convergence incorporates different cultures into media. Convergence is an ongoing process that is leading to disputes around its social and economic impacts.Heidegger[1]![Heidegger[1]](https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/heidegger1-090517232347-phpapp01-thumbnail.jpg?width=560&fit=bounds)

Heidegger explores the essence of technology and how it reveals the world. He argues that technology is not just a means to an end, but rather a way of revealing that frames nature as "standing reserve" or resources to exploit. Modern technology challenges nature to provide energy and supplies in an ordering that risks denying humanity a more original relationship with truth. However, Heidegger sees the danger of technology not as demonic but as the possibility that its way of revealing the world as standing reserve could close us off from other, more primal modes of revelation.Music technology

This document discusses the history and evolution of popular music and media technologies. It explores how recording technologies in the late 19th/early 20th century commodified music by separating the listener from the live performance. New technologies like radio broadcasting further changed listening experiences. The document then outlines the development of formats like records, tapes, MP3s, and streaming services and how they shaped music consumption. It also examines debates around how media/technologies deterministically shape culture or are shaped by social forces.Music and technology

By the mid-20th century, humans had achieved the ability to leave Earth's atmosphere and explore space. Technology refers to the making and use of tools, machines, techniques and methods to solve problems or achieve goals. It has significantly increased humans' ability to control their environment. While technology has benefits like improved communication, it also has downsides such as pollution and weapons that can harm the environment and people. Its influence on society and human values continues to be philosophically debated.Digital Prohibition: Piracy and Authorship in New Media Art

The act of creation requires us to remix existing cultural content and yet recent sweeping changes to copyright laws have criminalized the creative act as a violation of corporate rights in a commodified world. Copyright was originally designed to protect publishers, not authors, and has now gained a stranglehold on our ability to transport, read, write, teach and publish digital materials. Contrasting Western models with issues of piracy as practiced in Asia, Digital Prohibition is the first book to discuss the politics of creative work and emergent models of authorship in a digital age.
It explores the creation of new media forms by artists and groups who use technology to challenge established models and practices. It starts from the premise that creativity is no longer a useful concept in an age of data glut and perfect copies; instead we must now think of creative practice as a kind of creative critique and atactical aesthetics that repurpose existing materials in order to explore the nature of media and how they affect us. It does this through three different aesthetic approaches: interruption (stoppage and repetition), disturbance (critique and event), and capture/leak age (performance and documentation). The book is wide-ranging in its definition of authorship, exploring methods as diverse as sampling, mashups, hacktivism, social media, tactical media, productive mistranslation and digital anthropophagy.

1. Copyright aims to encourage creativity by preventing unauthorized use of creative works, but it primarily benefits large media corporations who control global music revenues.
2. New technologies like mp3s and file sharing have threatened the music industry's control over distribution, leading to lawsuits against sites like Napster. However, studies found file sharing did not significantly reduce music sales.
3. Debates over copyright and new media reveal ongoing struggles over cultural ownership and control in the digital age. While the music industry claims new technologies harm profits, others argue they enable new forms of creative expression.Ulrich Beck Theory of Risky World (technoculture & risk)

Ulrich Beck's theory of risk society argues that modern society is increasingly preoccupied with future risks generated by technology and industrialization. Beck defines a risk society as one that deals systematically with hazards introduced by modernization itself. Technoculture both generates risks, like viruses or data breaches, and provides solutions, like anti-virus software, that can paradoxically create new risks. While technology brings benefits to daily life, it also introduces risks regarding privacy, security, and environmental hazards that society must continually negotiate.Piracy in Musical Audio-Visual Production and Distribution: A Forensic Engine...

McLuhan believed that new media technologies are not just simple tools but have the power to completely reshape human association and thought. He coined the phrase "the medium is the message" to describe how each medium affects society in different ways. The emergence of the Internet has facilitated a global community as McLuhan predicted, allowing for new forms of one-to-one and one-to-many communication to transform how people interact and share information worldwide.Technology and values

2) These traits have benefited profits but also exacerbated issues like pollution, inequity, unemployment, and consumerism. Gandhi predicted this a century ago and proposed evolving "humane technologies" in tune with non-violence and self-sufficiency.
3) Gandhi's vision was for small, village-based technologies that meet local needs through cooperation and without exploiting people or the environment. This decentralized approach could realize equality while protecting moral values.Technoculture and Risk Theory

Persia, now known as Iran, is located in Western Asia. In 1979, the Iranian Revolution established Iran as an Islamic Republic after Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the Shah. This led to increased tensions with Iraq and the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s. Current president Hassan Rouhani has sought to improve relations with Western nations. Iranians have certain human rights protected under law, including rights to life, free speech, fair trials, and freedom of religion, though these rights are at times restricted by the Islamic government. The documentary "No One Knows About Persian Cats" highlights underground music in Iran.Retail Part 2

Censorship of music can take several forms that repress artists and influence. It can ban songs, limit performances, and control influences. Censorship is often used to exert cultural norms and influence behavior for political, religious, or other reasons. However, censorship is not always bad - some view it as a way to curb objectionable content.

A scattered radiation survey in a radiology department is an essential process for ensuring radiation safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Scattered radiation, which is secondary radiation deflected from its original path after interacting with a patient or other objects, poses a potential hazard to healthcare professionals, patients and general public.
Protection for Healthcare Workers and General Public: Scattered radiation surveys pinpoint areas where scattered radiation levels are highest. This helps in identifying workspaces or equipment where additional shielding or protective measures may be needed.
Since prolonged exposure to scattered radiation increases the risk of conditions like cancer and cataracts, surveys help to ensure that exposure stays within safe limits, adhering to regulatory standards and minimizing long-term health risks. Survey helps to protect Workers and General Public.
Radiation Survey data for safety improvements: The data collected in these surveys allows the X-ray department to make informed decisions about room layout, equipment placement, and workflow adjustments to further reduce exposure.
Surveys help identify where lead aprons, thyroid shields, and lead glasses are most effective, and when extra protective barriers or shields might be necessary for staff safety.
Radiation Survey for image quality: Clear, high-contrast images are essential for accurate diagnoses. When scattered radiation is minimized, the images are of higher diagnostic quality, helping radiologists detect abnormalities and make precise evaluations.

Breastfeeding is a fundamental right for both baby and mother, offering complete nutrition and vital immunological support. It's hygienic, economical, and shields infants from diseases. Additionally, breastfeeding fosters a strong mother-child bond, promoting overall well-being. Breastfeeding is the natural process of feeding an infant with breast milk, providing essential nutrients and immunity, promoting growth, strengthening mother-child bonding, and reducing disease risks.
Exclusive breastfeeding means feeding an infant only breast milk, without any additional food or drink for the first six months.Unit 3_Hash function and MD5 working.pdf

- 2. AIM To explore how changes in technology have affected the music listener, maker and audience 1. Technological music revolutions 1. Interaction and ownership 1. Post-humanism
- 3. ARGUMENT Music is a human phenomenon. Technology is a separation from humans. Technology is increasingly used in music-making. I am going to suggest that music explores new possible realities before we have the time/opportunity/need to do so on an existential level.
- 6. POST-HUMANISM for art to be considered post-human, it must be produced under at least two-conditions. Firstly, there must be a convergence, or collaboration, of biology and technology, or human and machine. Secondly, the product must somehow interrupt the flow of art production. https://loudmimedave.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/post-humanism-and-music-production-an-essay/
