It argues that music and street performances are conceived and therefore utilised as sonic acts of political struggle in urban realm. Starting with a general understanding of hearing mechanisms, the study elucidates the relationships among territoriality of soundscape, identity construction, social segregation and polarisation, and finally, power struggle. Within the framework of the intersection area of these concepts, the paper discusses the processes of politisation of soundscape through music as a form of protest event that is performed in public realm. Throughout the paper, it is focused on the significant cases of public protests as well as political events that occured in public space. The main emphasis is on the use of sound technologies to impose power on masses of people. The paper tackles the question of how the salient characteristics of soundscape are sonically adopted as means for counter-political acts in public realm.展开更多

Although developed for a gaming system, the game's music mode is a streamlined tool built upon basic music theory and music composition. Through familiar video game sounds and icon and Westem music notation, players are able to compose chipttme works and explore the nature of sound through an inviting interface. Similar music composition software upgrades the process of composition established in Mario Paint, allowing for digital distribution and dissemination. Mario Paint continues to inspire new projects in the areas of video games and scholastic studies. Mario Paint and its successors are very reasonable entry-level programs for chiptune composers and fledgling music students展开更多

She leaves an Austrian convent to be a governess at Captain Georg von Trapp's home. With her kindness, honesty, and teaching wisdom, she wins the seven children's trust, respect, and love. This paper analyzes the teaching philosophy embedded in this film, such as how to identify students' strengths and weaknesses to develop their potentials, how to encourage students to meet new challenges, how to improve students' ability to resist frustration, how to understand students and build a harmonious relationship with them, and how to teach students with effective methods, etc., teachers can benefit a lot from this aesthetically significant film from the perspective of pedagogy and psychology.展开更多
