Dark dots seem to appear Jenkins started out as a gifted aircraft mechanic but grew frustrated with his boring, low paying job and created an armor plated, mechanical suit and embarked on a criminal career as the "Beetle". He would later become a regular foe of Spider-Man, often as he worked as a henchman for various criminal organizations. Jenkins later organized his own group of criminals known as the Sinister Syndicate. When a large number of costumed heroes seemingly died in a battle against Onslaught, Helmut Movement in Squares, by Bridget Riley Op art, short for optical art, is a style of visual art that uses optical illusions.

Typically, they give the viewer the impression of movement, hidden images, flashing and vibrating patterns, or of swelling or warping. History Francis Picabia, c. The Prandtl—Glauert singularity was incorrectly predicted to occur under these conditions. The Prandtl—Glauert singularity is the prediction by the Prandtl—Glauert transformation that infinite pressures would be experienced by an aircraft as it approaches the speed of sound.

Because it is invalid to apply the transformation at these speeds, the predicted singularity does not emerge. This is related to the earlyth-century misconception of the impenetrability of the sound barrier. Reasons of invalidity around Mach 1 The Prandtl—Glauert transformation assumes linearity i. This assumption becomes inaccurate at high Mach numbers and is entirely invalid in places where the flow reaches supersonic speeds, since sonic shock waves are instantaneous and thus manifestly non-linear changes in t The firm provides integrated packaging products and machinery for the food, beverage, household goods and pharmaceutical industries.

If the temperature drops below the saturation temperature a cloud forms. In the case of aircraft, the cloud is caused by expansion fans decreasing the air pressure, density and temperature below the dew point.

Then pressure, density and temperature suddenly increase across the stern shock wave associated with a return to subsonic flow behind the aircraft. Since the local Mach number is not uniform over the aircraft, parts of the aircraft may be supersonic while others remain subsonic — a flight regime called transonic flight. In addition to making the shock waves themselves visible, water condensation can also occur in the trough between two crests of the shock wav Edge detection includes a variety of mathematical methods that aim at identifying points in a digital image at which the image brightness changes sharply or, more formally, has discontinuities.

The points at which image brightness changes sharply are typically organized into a set of curved line segments termed edges. The same problem of finding discontinuities in one-dimensional signals is known as step detection and the problem of finding signal discontinuities over time is known as change detection. Edge detection is a fundamental tool in image processing, machine vision and computer vision, particularly in the areas of feature detection and feature extraction.

It can be shown that under rather general assumptions for an image formation model, discontinuities in image brightness are likely to correspond to: The single was released from their album II.

Example of a photograph in JPEG format bit color or Posterization occurs across the image, but is most obvious in areas of subtle variation in tone. Posterized photo of a hibiscus. Posterization or posterisation of an image entails conversion of a continuous gradation of tone to several regions of fewer tones, with abrupt changes from one tone to another. This was originally done with photographic processes to create posters.

It can now be done photographically or with digital image processing, and may be deliberate or an unintended artifact of color quantization. Cause The effect may be created deliberately, or happen accidentally. For artistic effect, most image editing programs provide a posterization feature, or photographic processes may be used. Unwanted posterization, also known as banding, may occur when the color depth, sometimes called bit depth, is insufficient to accurately sample a c A human visual system model HVS model is used by image processing, video processing and computer vision experts to deal with biological and psychological processes that are not yet fully understood.

Such a model is used to simplify the behaviours of what is a very complex system. As our knowledge of the true visual system improves, the model is updated. It is common to think of "taking advantage" of the HVS model to produce desired effects. Examples of taking advantage of an HVS model include colour television. Originally it was thought that colour television required too high a bandwidth for the then available technology.

Then it was noticed that the colour resolution of the HVS was much lower than the brightness resolution; this allowed colour to be squeezed into the signal by chroma subsampling. Another example is image compression, like JPEG. Our HVS model says that we cannot see high frequency detail so in JPEG we can quantise these components without a perceptible loss of quality.

Formed in , the group has released three full-length studio albums, one extended play and one compilation album. Finsterforst means "dark forest" and it is a reference to "Schwarzwald" "black forest" , a wooded mountain range in the band's home state. Besides the usual line-up of instruments used in metal electric guitars, bass, drums , the band's sound relies heavily on accordion melodies, with the occasional use of instruments, such as the tin whistle and the oboe. The band's genre is often dubbed pagan metal because of its use of harsh vocals. Several band members play in both bands.

Look up gamut in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Typical CRT gamutThe grayed-out horseshoe shape is the entire range of possible chromaticities, displayed in the CIE chromaticity diagram format see below. The colored triangle is the gamut available to the sRGB color space typically used in computer monitors; it does not cover the entire space.

The corners of the triangle are the primary colors for this gamut; in the case of a CRT, they depend on the colors of the phosphors of the monitor. At each point, the brightest possible RGB color of that chromaticity is shown, resulting in the bright Mach band stripes corresponding to the edges of the RGB color cube.

In color reproduction, including computer graphics and photography, the gamut, or color gamut , is a certain complete subset of colors. The most common usage refers to the subset of colors which can be accurately represented in a given circumstance, such as within a given color space or by a certain output device.

It counters the force of gravity by using either static lift or by using the dynamic lift of an airfoil,[1] or in a few cases the downward thrust from jet engines. Common examples of aircraft include airplanes, helicopters, airships including blimps , gliders, and hot air balloons. The science of aviation, including designing and building aircraft, is called aeronautics. Crewed aircraft are flown by an onboard pilot, but unmanned aerial vehicles may be remotely controlled or self-controlled by onboard computers.

Aircraft may be classified by different criteria, such as lift type, aircraft propulsion, usage and others.

Member feedback about Cornsweet illusion: Our recording from may be the only stand-alone recording featuring works solely for brass trio. There are other recordings that include some trios as part of a musical compilation, but a pure brass trio recording is indeed a rare bird. That recording project required several intense sessions and was simultaneously exhilarating, educational and fatiguing.

There are three distinctive voices, there is nowhere to hide and there are precious few rests to be found in most of the literature for that ensemble. Those are the facts. I am sure that one of the main reasons we do not see more brass trios on the concert circuit has to do more with the fatigue factor than anything else.

The bass trombone, and I may be slightly biased in this opinion, can be a better fit than tenor as the bottom voice on much of the trio repertoire. I played tenor on one or two of the works on the Maryland Brass Trio recording and the rest were performed on bass. It is that dissimilarity that makes the group sound a bit more colorful. With regard to range, I have not yet found any works containing notes too high for an accomplished bass trombonist. Can you put into words the educational, musical and personal influence of Norman Bolter on your life?

Before I answer that question directly, I must state that Norman Bolter had a profound influence on me well before we had even entered into a student-teacher relationship. It has since become a revered classic recording, but at that time it was the very cutting edge of brass chamber music performance. E very player was a virtuoso. Being a trombonist, my ear bent in the direction of the trombonist, Norman Bolter. While I was most likely too young to understand what I heard in his playing that appealed to me at that time, I can say that it spoke to me and drew me in to learn more.

His home was warm, inviting and I felt very comfortable in those surroundings for most of our lessons, as others sometimes took place at Symphony Hall. He worked with me a great deal on articulation of all kinds, from the most basic of a tenuto up to lightening fast multiple tongue. Analogies played a big role in this methodology. His imagination is without bounds. Norman also worked with me a great deal on other basics such as range-building and intervals. I tend to push both of those basic disciplines firmly on my own young and not-so-young students as well.

I think that the time put into both of those endeavors tend to make for a more secure and fearless player. We did not spend an exorbitant amount of time on orchestral repertoire in the first two years of our three years together. My main take-away from Norman was a very firm underpinning in all of the basics of trombone playing viewed though a wide lens. The world of music-making and trombone playing was expanded though him. Those who have studied with Norman over the years will probably agree that his fertile imagination and sometimes ethereal approach to teaching may have caught them off guard at one point or another.

I was a sponge to take in whatever he had to offer, from the basics of articulation to creating a sound color that was purple. He is responsible for many of the tools in my trombone tool chest. Since this question asked me directly about just one of my teachers, I think it fair to at least mention my two years of study with Douglas Yeo and my final year of study with John Swallow at NEC.

Yeo taught me how to win and keep bass trombone positions in major US symphony orchestras, and Mr. Swallow tipped everything I had learned to previous 5 years upside down and asked me to reassemble it all in my own authentic voice. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

More than any other single human -being, tubist Chester Schmitz etched Jabba the Hutt in our collective consciousness. His tuba embodied the villan for John Williams, but the real man seems more infused by Dietrich Fischer Dieskau than Jabba musically; and embodies Christ more than the force spiritually. Perhaps this Star Wars solo was among the things that inspired the great composer John Williams to write a tuba concerto for Mr. Whether Tubby The Tuba , or a laundry list of great accomplished solos, Schmitz caressed the unwieldy mass of brass to soloistic heights with the heart of an artist.

From his perch as retired principal tubist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Pops,he has even more to add, with and without the tuba…. What are your most memorable moments with John Williams and his music? Of course, top of the list was the world premiere of the Tuba Concerto he dedicated to me in Also, he wrote some nice solos…..

Reivers , his first concert as pops conductor, Jabba the Hutt , and just plain good parts. What are the best solo settings for tuba you have found? What makes them effective? Tuba solos emanating from within the orchestra are the best. What three things are most important to you? Which 3 things are important to me? Second, Jesus loves me.

Third, Jesus has saved me and given me eternal life, because He loves me and died for me, rose from the dead for me, and will come to take me home with Himself. Who were your biggest musical inspirations? What did you learn from each? Rostropovich, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, and Richter.

I listened and studied them during my college years. Eventually I performed with Fischer-Dieskau, heard Richter play 2 recitals live, and played many concerts with Rostropovich. How important is a warm up, and how has yours changed over the years? Playing properly is almost infinitely more important than requiring a specific warm-up. How did you develop such a beautiful, non-intrusive articulation? If that be so, good…and thank you. Proper preparation to play and understanding of breathing. I have put up 3 FB posts on that very subject within the last few days.

What reflections on a life in music do you have for a young person starting out today? Would you do anything differently? If that young person desires to have a career in music, AND……. When I began the tuba, I practiced 4 to 12 hours every day for 6 months, then, all my formative years, I listened to good classical music day and night. Yes, while I slept! I love good music! How do you change your approach from solo to chamber to orchestral? Different instruments for different orchestral music, including the euphonium and contrabass trombone, sizes, keys, etc.

I have played cello parts in a string quartet with 2 violins and a viola bless them! How do you see the tuba? Some artists get to make music through their voice. A violin and a cello are also simpler. To sing through 30 feet of metal is a challenge those folks will never encounter, yet the music must be just as good.

I got the tuba. If I were to do it again, and the Good Lord gave me a choice, I would sing and play the violin on the side. However, what I got to do on the tuba was a great privilege. To play with those phenomenal artists who make up the Boston Symphony was a Blessing from Heaven. As I said, Jesus loved me, and He still does. Thanks for the interview, David. Nose-breathing is also the way you breathe — automatically — all day long….. One should not drop the jaw to breathe, nor should they use those vowel concepts.

Doing this then makes it possible to set your emouchure, with playing pressure, before you breathe, top and bottom center on mouthpiece rim, so that you, after your breath, are immediately ready to make that sound….. It is not only very easy, but it also is the correct way to prepare and breathe in order to play any brass instrument. Hope you find this recent recording of No. Congratulations, Wes, and thanks! Come young soul and drink from the spring Come old friend and swim in the stream Dance my feet and twirl into smoke, Whirl my body back to the sea, the sea.

A genius has a knack for seeing the future, when others seem so deeply rooted in the past. Of seeing so far beyond the box, that the box never was. Beyond the horizons of New Mexico, and deeper than the Black Forest, she has sought expression, beauty and relevance. If you HAD to choose…which would you live without, words or music?

Definitely words, though I love them too. As an instrumentalist turned vocalist, what insights have the differing approaches to breath wrought? AC Hmmm… There is wholeness to singing in that the whole body must participate. The sound is produced within the body and resonates from there.

The empty spaces in the body create the resonance and every cell vibrates with the vocal chords. When we sing, billions of activities must coordinate and cooperate. When we sing what we will then play, the integration that is necessary for making a whole, complete musical idea real has already been achieved. When we then play the same passage, so many subtle aspects of the music are improved, sometimes in indescribable ways. There is a richness added. The basics are all there, sound, style, phrasing, aliveness, connection, etc.

Many say, if you can sing it, you can play it. I guess I would say, if you can sing it, you can sing it. To have that intimate, heart-connection with our listeners? To be moved and to move others just as singers do? Have you found inspiration or interest with any colleagues in the club, either historic or living? Well, the artists you just named all blow me away with their deep connection to their instruments. Louis Armstrong constantly demonstrated that trumpet and voice were just different timbres.

Our instruments, our voices are crucibles that can turn our pain and sorrow into music. Whether it killed the wicked witch of remains to be discovered. A month of chrysalis and ice crystals. The old black dog lies motionless in a pile of brown leaves. I have seen him there many times before. Belly on the earth, his only chance to heal. Part spaniel, part shepard, part shag rug.

He becomes part of the pile of leaves, part of the snow patches, as silent as the line of trees that border his sagging house. How many times have I thought, he is dead. And then the next day he is back, faintly breathing, passionate in his stillness, agog in sleep as if sleeping for the wintering earth herself. I walk carefully so as not to slip on the ice. The small, tidy houses of Montoya Street look hermetically sealed, still as frozen toys, dreaming of spring antics and colored socks.

My winter dog lies as a frigid vision over the town which sleeps without knowing it, awakens into further dreaming. Knowing without knowing, I know.

My ears loping toward every faint sound, my nose inhaling the palette of the bluish peach morning, stiff-legged, uncollared, prevailing toward someone perhaps calling my name as the cold settles further into the earth and the morning seems to stop time itself. The heap of dog has not moved. Somehow I know he still breathes. I see the mountain now, indigo, watching, the only being awake in this season. He said, ok you have a year to learn how to sing and work up this piece.

Now, I hardly had a speaking voice, let alone a singing voice! But serendipity brought me to a wonderful voice teacher I met in the dorm at a music festival in Switzerland. It turned out she also lived in Munich and she offered to take up the challenge. I had to learn to back off a lot in in terms of support so as not to force my voice and wreck my vocal chords. She was patient but relentless and taught me classic bel canto technique.

She told me I was a dramatic soprano and that if I worked hard I could be an opera singer. My goal was specific and she brought me to the point where I could sing this difficult minute-long piece and play the tricky trombone part as well, not to mention acting Beckett…a year later we premiered Winnie in Rome. I should mention that I could not have done this without the Alexander Technique. It helps a person learn new things. One is then able to transcend preconceptions and assumptions about how to do something and truly open to the new. It allows you to be a clean slate. After Winne ,came The Miriam Trilogy, a minute program without pause that included: Then came Cybeline , an odd combination of Schubert, Electronics and cartoons.

Cybeline is a cyborg who tires to prove to the scientists that she is human by being a talk show host. Aletheia is the new one we just premiered at the ITF She is in a cage the whole piece. What is your voice type? I started out as a soprano and I guess I am a mezzo now. And are you concerned about the unique requirements of producing the music for its longevity, or does that motivate you to record, or seek proteges? I believe that this kind of performance art is the future.

It takes tremendous courage or insanity to undertake this kind of work. One has to play the trombone, sing, act and move—all at world class levels. No single aspect can be halfway. William and I are busy making video documentation of our various pieces. Right now we are working on The Mirror which is all pantomime, mask-work and trombone playing. We want musicians of the future to be able to do these works. Every gesture I make is notated in each score.

The scores are not just musical scores but also stage directions as well. It is all spelled out. Because the first part is published in BOTH C and Bb transposition both are included with each purchase , these duos will work in almost any combination: Each of these ten concert duos have been arranged, performed and refined by Brian Neal, solo trumpet of the Dallas Brass, and David Brubeck, bass trombonist.

During four seasons, the Brubeck-Neal Duo presented these arrangements in dozens of concerts. A significant milestone in the development of the under-served duo genre.

Call in Navy specialist Natalie Mannix, recruited from Juilliard by way of Michigan, and your problem is well on its way to being solved.

Graceful, assured, powerful, never shaken, and stirring! Going to a large university was such an important part of my growth as a person and a musician. I wanted to experience everything, and I guess I can still stay that. I played in the marching band and hockey band for two years, joined clubs, went to parties with friends, worked toward a pre-med degree, held five part-time jobs and cheered on sports teams.

I had a lot of fun but worked very hard. In order to pursue both degrees, I took an overload of credits and took classes two summers. I received a very well-rounded education and enjoyed so many experiences that prepared me for life and the sacrifice of spending the next two years in a practice room. You were ensconced and successful in the DC area, with friends and a hard won reputation. I would not have made such a big change for just anywhere. The reputation and culture of UNT really excited me.

When I interviewed there I was so impressed with the support from the administration and the faculty members, and the students were so excited to learn. One thing I love about UNT is the autonomy given to the professors to design a curriculum for their students. We have three professors in the trombone studio, five teaching fellows and an adjunct jazz professor. Because of the size of our department, we are able to offer many choices to the students: We put equal importance on classical and jazz studies since we want our students to be well-rounded musicians when they graduate.

The college of music encourages this and offers additional innovative programs to help students be marketable when they graduate, like music entrepreneuriship and performing health. What do you think are the biggest factors that lead to a successful career in music during the transition of having just graduated college with a Bachelor or Masters? Musicians need to be life-long students in order to be successful. Now that your teachers and friends from college are no longer there all the time, you need to be self-motivated. Go to concerts, take every gig that comes your way, meet people, start your own ensembles, take lessons with professionals in the area, start a teaching studio.

If you love it and have the passion to succeed, all of this will be fulfilling. You never know what opportunity will lead to something else. Many trombonists have won great jobs after losing auditions. Be open to ancillary paths that may lead to a musically fulfilling career outside of the one you imagined. What is your secret to a good legato? The answer for me is part mental, part physical. Dennis Smith, my teacher at Michigan, had the most silky smooth legato. I can still hear it. Every time I hear a soloist play with great legato or a singer shape a beautiful phrase, I try to take a mental recording of it.

Imitation has always been a very important part of my learning. For the physical execution of legato, the projection and smoothness of the air stream makes all the difference. If the air has someplace to aim, it becomes smoother and more beautiful. Always focus on the music! Every note goes or comes back from a musical peak in the phrase.

For some players, the coordination of slide and tongue is problematic. Many slide connection problems become obvious when hearing your playing back. What did you learn recording a CD? What would you do the same and differently next time? I learned that it is nearly impossible to get everything perfect, and that is ok! I am hard on myself when listening to takes.

It is especially difficult in a dry recording studio where you hear every little thing. If I record another CD, I would record in a nice hall with good acoustics. It would allow me to enjoy the music more and direct the focus away from my critical thoughts. As I went, I got better at thinking less and focusing on the music more. What I set out to do was get people excited about new composers and new music. To me, that is the most important and rewarding part of recording and performing.

What has your rich career in the military added to your resilience and outlook that you emphasize to students? There were many days in the Navy Band that I struggled with fatigue, the weather or the physical demands. At the end of the day though, I always tried to remember how grateful I was to be able to play trombone for a living.

After all, how many people can say that? I try to carry that gratitude with me in every part of my life. It keeps things in perspective. We may find ourselves on some pretty terrible gigs I once marched dressed like a clown in a rainy parade through Newark, NJ! On the same note, I hate to see students take the trombone so seriously that they are brought to tears or depression. Being grateful and remembering the original joy in making music can help with that mindset.

When you arrived at Juilliard, did you have the feeling that you should have been there all along, or were you glad that you saved it for grad school? I am so glad I saved it for grad school. I did not have the discipline and drive to put enough hours in the practice room. It was hard enough at the age of 22 when I was totally committed. That being said, what great training it was! The attention I gave the trombone in those two years and everything I learned from Joe Alessi is the basis for everything I can do now.

How have your accomplishments on euphonium colored your perspectives on trombone? Euphonium players tend to orient as soloists, where as trombonists are more ensembley oriented as a rule. I have always been more drawn to solo playing. I was a self-taught euphonium player. At first I borrowed musicality from great soloists then ultimately developed my own. This was great musical training for the trombone. Even in the uniformity of orchestral playing, phrasing and musical style are just as important. Every note has to be musical.

How do you achieve such consistent articulation, and what is your ideal of beauty with regards to articulation? In training to be an orchestral trombonist, consistency is everything: I used to do attack exercises from the Marsteller Daily Routines book, and if I missed an attack I would start from the beginning. Joe Alessi later reinforced this attention to detail and focused concentration. I took it to a whole new level by playing Arbans every day for three years.

I guess you can say that I am a recovering perfectionist! The tongue is just a release valve for the air and sound. Variety in articulation, as well as color and dynamics, are the key to playing expressively. I strive for consistency, so that I always make intentional decisions in the execution of beautiful music.
