Video in Opera Stage

Introduction Advances in technology and the corresponding creation of digital technologies have significantly impacted the performing arts (Poole & Ho, 2011). Opera has not escaped the technological advancements and as such, new forms of opera have emerged in both digital and virtual formats (Symonds & Karantonis, 2013). Salter (2010) explains that since the 1990s, the scenography of opera has emerged with technological advancements transforming stages into video and monitor accompaniments. The obvious payoff is an enhanced experiential, virtual reality of the opera’s stage. The new technologies blur the lines between the opera’s stage and the motion picture common in ...

The functionalist perspective is based on the premise that the various structures in society as well as social institutions act collectively in order to satisfy the needs of society. When it comes to explaining the prevalent role of social media, the functionalist approach suggests that both the latent and manifest functions of society determine which trends become popular in the digital world. Since the functionalist perspective attempts to explain the stability and cohesion that is required for societies to maintain their existence, individual differences are largely ignored in favor of social equilibrium. This perspective assumes that different elements of ...

The Canadian healthcare and social assistance sector falls under the NAICS classification. The sector entails a publicly funded healthcare system. The sector is guided by the provisions of the Canada Health Act of 1984 (Belchetz). The sector, relative to its peers in most other countries including the U.S and Mexico, is unique. Its uniqueness arises from the fact that despite being predominantly publicly funded, most of the healthcare services at the point of sale are provided for by private practitioners. The Canadian healthcare and social assistance sector has been billed in many quarters as a model to be followed ...

One of the predominant elements of the 2016 Presidential election in the United States was the ways in which the American press underestimated the appeal that Donald J. Trump had, first among Republican voters in the primaries and then among American voters in the general election. National polling had the Democratic nominee, leading Trump by a significant enough percentage for the media to assume that Clinton would end up winning the election. Despite winning the popular vote, though, she failed to carry several states that had voted Democrat for more than three decades, and those electoral votes gave the ...

Lab report: electrical conductance

Lab report: electrical conductance

Introduction

Electrical conductance is the property of an electrical conductor that determines how fast it contacts – how easily current flows through it (Shaw, 1911, p. 281). When a potential difference is applied across various types of conductors, current flows through the conductors at different rates. The rate at which the current flows through a particular conductor for a particular potential difference is dependent on the specific property of the conductor, referred to as electrical conductance. Conductance determines how well current flows through a particular conductor. Conductance is the inverse (reciprocal) of the property of the conductor ...

Three phase induction motors

Introduction The three-phase induction machine is the most widely used among the rotating machines. An induction machine offers an almost constant speed within its normal operating range when operated off a constant-voltage, constant-frequency, and with the electric power source. The cost of purchasing these machines is very low, and they require little maintenance. However, speed control is difficult and very expensive. Therefore, the rotor current of the three phase induction motors is not induced by electrical connections, but rather the rotation of magnetic field.

Titus Andronicus is one of the bloodiest of Shakespare's tragedies, with many characters dying or being tortured both on stage and off. What stands out in the mist of all this violence, though, is that the imagery used in many of the lines echoes it. Characters often use metaphors referring to hands and tongues, and other body parts, which mirror the condition of the characters they are talking about. A particularly powerful example is the dialogue in Act II between Lavinia and her cousin Marcus Andronicus. By matching the extreme violence of what has happened to Lavinia with the ...
