OnLine - The Performance - Premiere - Venice Biennale of Architecture 2014 - Fundamentals, Salon d'Armi, Arsenale, opening day, 7th June 2014, Venice, Italy. Face tracking, clmtrackr portrait leaks. Code modulation by Henner Wöhler.
i took this to remember where everything went as i disassembled it to repair a broken VCO modulation slider. but everything is packed in there VERY tightly and soon after this, i chickened out and paid a tech to fix it instead. oh well... works great now!
My cat Anime is nodding off here, but music fans know you can't nap through a show that plays The Fall, Califone, T Rex, Mouse on Mars, Graham Parker, Firewater, and music from the "Return of the DJ" & "Modulations & Transformations" compilations. I mean how does that show even EXIST?
Well, it won't for long, I'm doing my last Can Haz DJ show on Radio Valencia tonight starting early (for me) at 8pm and running until 2am. 6 hours. That's 25% of a whole day! And I still, definitely cannot fit everything in that I'd like to.
I am going out with an extended echoey bang. Playing Jazz, Punk, Rap, Glitch and other Electronica, good old rock and roll, plus New Wave, Dub, country-dust-songwriting-Americana-whaddyacallit, a horde of amazing covers, and a bit of everything else.

This innovative device offers unprecedented tonal variety and expression for all wind instruments. Using powerful digital processors you can twist and shape your tone for unlimited creativity whether in silent practice, the recording studio, or on-stage performance. The ST5 was designed to work especially well with the Silent Brass Pickup Mutes or with Yamaha MC7 microphone (or similar microphones). A range of 32 high-resolution digital effects including reverbs, delays, distortion, pitch change, modulation, dynamics and 4-band EQ can be used - up to 6 at a time - to alter and enhance your sound. 50 preset effect programs are provided, and memory for 50 user programs lets you store your own creations. The built-in tuner, metronome with rhythm patterns, and phrase sampler, make the ST5 a powerful practice tool. While inputs for external sources such as recordings allow real-time pitchchange so you can play along with any music.
I can recognize Alfred Brendel playing Schubert on the Radio long before they announce the performer. This Pianist specializes in Schubert and plays it magically. He plays a Bosendorfer and he generates a sound which is both warm and constructive. He maximizes Shubert's modulations with ease and imagination (almost to mystical levels). How do I know this? because I have listened to Brendel since my teans when he came to my School and played a recital.

One of Scarpa's late works, completed posthumously, it makes use of his signature extruded stepped modulation. The base unit is a 5.5x5.5cm square, which is a consequence of Scarpa's obsession with the number 11.

Alain Wergifosse, Belg die geruime tijd in de experimentele scene van Barcelona actief was, is naar zijn grijs en nevelig thuisland teruggekeerd om er inspiratie te vinden voor zijn nieuwe klank- en beeldprojecten. In Spanje werkte hij met zijn power-trio Obmuz, met Nad Spiro, Macromassa, Marcel.li Antunez, Cluster, Zbigniew Karkoski, Francisco Lopez en anderen. Hij organiseerde ook mee het festival NONOlogic met Eli Gras en het LEM van GTS.
Gedurende 6 weken zal hij het station Brussel Congres innemen en bespelen. We krijgen onbestaande architectuur te zien, microscopische beelden, erosies, lichtmodulatie, electromagnetische golven worden hoorbaar gemaakt. Het geheel is één groot ‘work in progress’ (atelier/tentoonstelling/residentie) dat zijn publiek toonmoment zal kennen op 18 februari in een luidruchtig klankexperiment/concert dat de hele ruimte zal doen weerklinken als een instrument. Alain Wergifosse zal de treinen doen zingen en de ratten doen flippen.

Letzigrund Zürich, 18. Juni 2003
Tages-Anzeiger, 19.6.03:
Eine ehrliche Haut für alle Generationen
Ein Meister der Modulation: Herbert Grönemeyer liess sich und seine Musik im Stadion Letzigrund feiern.
Von Philippe Amrein
Das demografische Grübeln geht bereits lange vor Konzertbeginn los: Woraus setzt sich die grönemeyersche Fangemeinde eigentlich zusammen? Auf seiner aktuellen Tournee «Das Beste von Gestern bis Mensch» spielt er immerhin für ein Publikum von weit über 500 000 Menschen. Nun, es findet sich der leicht angegraute Popliebhaber aus alten «Das Boot»-Tagen neben der gutmütigen Industriekauffrau, der Musikpluralist im abgewetzten «Santana»-Shirt neben dem jugendlichen Fan.
Der Meister kennt sein Publikum. Er schmeisst sich sofort in Stadionrockpose, joggt flott über die ganze Bühnenbreite und schmettert seine schnörkellose Stahlrohrpoesie mit kehliger Stimme ins Stadionrund. Nach zwei Haudrauf-Rocknummern stimmt Grönemeyer eine balladeske Nummer an, bei der ihn sein Saxofonist und ein mehrköpfiges Streicherensemble begleiten. Als auf der Videowand schliesslich ein Fan in Grossaufnahme gezeigt wird, der einen «VFL Bochum»-Schal schwenkt, hebt Herbert sofort zu seiner legendären Zeile an: «Tief im Westen, wo die Sonne versinkt.» Ein erster Höhepunkt, den er mit der Modifikation einer weiteren Zeile nachdrücklich markiert: «Bist keine Weltstadt wie Zürich.» Im Hintergrund werkelt derweil Grönemeyers äusserst versierte Band, die ihn mit modernen Grooves und souveräner Popmusik begleitet, mal stampfend und funky, mal entrückt und besinnlich. Bereits in der ersten Konzerthälfte gleiten sie dann in eine blubbernde Version des letztjährigen Superhits «Mensch». Das gesamte Publikum singt mit, und sofort kriegt man eine ehrliche Gänsehaut, die bis zum Ende des emotional und musikalisch mitreissenden Konzerts anhält. Und dann geht das dermatologische Grübeln los.
These examples demonstrated a markedly changed styles - coloration was less intense, more in-line with the Renaissance, so was the modulation of the figures, more naturalistic and less flatly stylized.

Poncirus trifoliata
Planted by Dr. Douglas Goldman
'Trifoliate Orange, Poncirus trifoliata (syn. Citrus trifoliata), is a member of the family Rutaceae, closely related to Citrus, and sometimes included in that genus, being sufficiently closely related to allow it to be used as a rootstock for Citrus. It differs from Citrus in having deciduous, compound leaves, and pubescent (downy) fruit.
It is native to northern China and Korea, and is also known as the Chinese Bitter Orange.[1]
The plant is fairly hardy (USDA zone 5) and will tolerate moderate frost and snow, making a large shrub or small tree 4–8 m tall. Because of the relative hardiness of Poncirus, citrus grafted onto it are usually hardier than when grown on their own roots.
Contents [show]
[edit]Description
Poncirus trifoliata is recognisable by the large 3–5 cm thorns on the shoots, and its deciduous leaves with three (or rarely, five) leaflets, typically with the middle leaflet 3–5 cm long, and the two side leaflets 2–3 cm long. The flowers are white, with pink stamens, 3–5 cm in diameter, larger than those of true citrus but otherwise closely resembling them, except that the scent is much less pronounced than with true citrus. As with true citrus, the leaves give off a spicy smell when crushed.
The fruits are green, ripening to yellow, and 3–4 cm in diameter, resembling a small orange, but with a finely downy surface. They are very bitter, are not edible fresh, but can be made into marmalade, and when dried and powdered, they can be used as a condiment.

[edit]Uses
[edit]Cultivation
The cultivar "Flying Dragon" is dwarfed in size and has highly twisted, contorted stems. It makes an excellent barrier hedge due to its density and thorns. Such a hedge had been grown for over 50 years at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater.[1]
[edit]Medicinal
[edit]Traditional medicine
The fruits of Poncirus trifoliata are widely used in Oriental medicine as a remedy for allergic inflammation.[2]
[edit]Potential pharmacology
In vitro studies show that extracts of the fruits of Poncirus trifoliata inhibit NF-κB activation in mast cells.[3] The chemical compounds neohesperidin and poncirin isolated from Poncirus trifoliata may be useful for the treatment of, and/or protection from, gastritis.[4] Poncirus trifoliata extracts have been shown to possess in vitro anti-allergic, antitumor,[5][6] anti-inflammatory and antiviral activities.[7] Poncirus trifoliate extract could possess a wide range of beneficial activities for neurodegenerative disorders.[8] A water extract, taken for 10 weeks, suppressed weight gain in rats.[9]

After years of hating the typeface used on BTS signage, I’ve come to appreciate its functional efficiency. It’s plain and unadorned, yet successfully combines the legibility of looped letterforms with low stroke modulation without looking too old fashioned.
This is the same Bezier curve with a curve modulated onto it, using the even spacing along the curve already developed.
Intention- To show Post Processing and Color Contrast
Edit- Removed all color but the pink, increased the blacks, used dodge and burn on the entire image
Outcome- I loved the way the sunlight really made this picture come to life. It looks like a constant back light was on the picture.
Reference- Freeman says that in visual terms black and white allows more expression in the modulation of tone in conveying texture.

Here's the signal flow in order:
distortions and pre:
1. Bass signal first runs through the Big Muff for optional, over-the-top, distortion.
2. Then into the MXR M80 for fatness, tone and more-pleasing, tasteful distortion.
modulation section:
3. MXR Bass Auto Q M-188 for underwater funk and resonant weirdness.
4. Octave pedal for low frequency bombs.
5. MXR Phase 90 for soaring
signal split
6. I use the Boss Tuner's two outputs to split my signal
7a. The normal output goes straight to the DOD mixer at the end of the chain.
7b. The bypass (always-on) output goes to the volume pedal
8. The Ernie Ball volume is used to carefully feed signal to one or both of the next two pedals.
9. Boss digital delay for space exporation.
10. Finally I turn on the Line6 Tap Tremolo to give the audience nightmares.
11. Both the delay/tremolo signal and the straight signal meet at the DOD mixer and then to the amp.
With the tuner engaged (muted) this allows for volume-swelling through the delay/tremolo chain to create ambient cues.

Shifting Paradigms from Mass Production to Mass Customization
Computational architecture and design course
Conventional construction methods all depart from the basic premises of mass production: standardization, modulation and a production line. What these systems developed during the last two centuries fail to take into account are the evolutionary leaps and bounds the manufacturing industry has taken over the last decades. With the introduction of CNC technologies and rapid prototyping machines have altered the paradigms of fabrication forever. It is due to these new tools that it is now possible to create (n) amount of completely unique and different pieces with the same amount of energy and material that is required to create (n) identical pieces. The possibilities for implementation of new forms, textures, materials and languages are infinite due to the versatility that these new tools offer a growing network of architects, designers, fabricators that are integrating them into their professional practices to generate unique and precise objects that respond to countless data and real-life conditions.

Now available at REI -- the exclusive U.S. retailer for this German engineered line of mountain bikes -- Ghost has entered 2016 with a cadre of lighter, stiffer and cooler rides. Plus the 27.5" wheels offer greater cornering control than the 29ers but still continue to eat up ground as your pedal your heart out.
Much like the Tacana X, it’s the frame that makes the difference. Shorter, more agile geometry, a high-end frame finish, and an optional dropper seat post will give you that extra confidence when the terrain gets exciting. Factor in the light weight and you will find yourself taking time out of your training buddies which is precisely what you want in a mountain bike. A step up from the standard Kato hardtail line, it's perfect if you're looking to upgrade from your first bike. Starts at $1,699.00.
Details:
Hydroformed aluminum frame is stiff and strong; slack head tube angle allows good control on descents; steep seat tube angle creates an efficient riding position for climbs
27.5-in. wheels offer an optimal mix of control, speed and maneuverability
Rock Shox Reba RL, Solo Air fork features 120mm of travel to smooth uneven terrain, remote lockout for climbing, and QR 15 axel for stiffness and guaranteed wheel alignment
Shimano Deore double crankset is paired with a 10-speed, 11-36t cassette for a wide gear range capable of the steepest climbs and descents
Shimano Deore SL shifters and Deore XT plus rear derailleur work together to transition quickly and smoothly through the gear range
Shimano Deore XT Plus rear derailleur reduces chain slap and increases shifting accuracy over the roughest of terrain
Shimano hydraulic disc brakes and 180mm rotors provide powerful one-finger braking and exceptional modulation
Schwalbe Rocket Ron 27.5 x 2.25 tires excel in the toughest of trail conditions, including mud, hard-packed, rocky and loamy environments

Description of work: Renaissance Hotels tasked architect Jose R. Marchand and interior designer Jorge Rossello with renovating and saving this beachside landmark. "[B]y the mid-1990s the venerable La Concha hotel had been shuttered, abandoned and left to rot...Originally designed by Osvaldo Toro and Miguel Ferrer, with an eccentric but utterly loveable seashell-shaped restaurant by Mario Salvatori [sic], La Concha was a beautifully massed, expertly sited, vividly inventive building perfectly in sync with its time. Closely attuning the hotel to its sun-swept setting, the architects created deep-shading overhangs, open corridors, windows and doors that gave onto lush interior courtyards and provided cross ventilation, and beautifully lacy quiebra-sol (their take on a brise-soleil) for further modulation of the light and heat" (Frank, Michael. "La Concha Revival". Architectural Digest. Aug 2009, p. 103-104. Print).

Ever think your computer is trying desperately to communicate with you??? Freaky.
You get a cookie if you can explain the modulation's cause.
The Geisha is by definition "one who performs the arts" (union of "gei" art, and "sha" person). Its beauty is expressed in the refined execution of various disciplines such as dance, traditional chant, the tea ceremony ', the careful dressing of the kimono, the art of conversazioe and practicing calligraphy Kanji. All this is meant to entertain Japanese businessmen and politicians during otherwise boring dinners. Sexual performance are not included in the package, the main function of the geisha is to entertain using his whole being: the modulation of the breath and the voice, the body that is forged through years of hard training, careful vestitizione and flawless makeup .
