Gilles Binchois - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia David Fallows, "Gilles Binchois," The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, ed. Binchois is often considered to be the finest melodist of the 15th century, writing carefully shaped lines which are easy to sing, and utterly memorable; his tunes continued to appear in copies decades later, and were often used as sources for mass composition by later composers. Binchois wrote music for the court, secular songs of love and chivalry, music that was expected by the Dukes of Burgundy and that was evidently loved by them. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Gilles_Binchois   (443 words)

Encyclopedia: Gilles Duceppe Duceppe's victory in a by-election demonstrated, for the first time, that the party had electoral support in Quebec and was capable of winning elections. In 1990, Duceppe was elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the newly-formed Bloc Québécois in a by-election in Montreal's Laurier—Sainte-Marie riding. Duceppe later said his three-year membership in the W.C.P. (M.L.) was a mistake brought on by a search for fundamental change [1]. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Gilles-Duceppe   (2051 words)

Gilles Deleuze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Deleuze's main philosophical project in his early works (i.e., those prior to his collaborations with Guattari) can be baldly summarized as a systematic inversion of the traditional relationship between identity and difference. Deleuze suffered a severe respiratory ailment in the last decade of his life, and in 1995, he committed suicide, throwing himself from the window of his apartment. Deleuze borrows the doctrine of ontological univocity from the medieval philosopher John Duns Scotus. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Gilles_Deleuze   (2656 words)

Social Credit Party of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Réal's son, Gilles Caouette, was named acting leader five days after Fortin's death. Caouette was suffering from a snowmobiling accident, and therefore the powerful voice that had carried Social Credit in prior elections was silenced. When he was able to speak, Caouette focussed his attacks on the Progressive Conservatives and the New Democratic Party, instead of the Liberal Party, which was Social Credit's main competitor in Quebec. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Social_Credit_Party_of_Canada   (2075 words)

Gilles Deleuze [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was born in the 17th arrondisment of Paris, a district that, excepting periods in his youth, he lived in for the whole of his life. Deleuze's philosophical naturalism is thus critical, Spinozist and Nietzschean: it sets as the aim of philosophy the attack of all that belittles life: the sad passions of Spinoza, the passive and reactive forces of Nietzsche, and mythology, in Lucretian terms. Deleuze's work on the arts, he never ceases to remind the reader, are not to be understood as literary criticism, film or art theory. www.iep.utm.edu /d/deleuze.htm   (13883 words)

WOMusic :: artist Gilles Apap studied music at the Nice and Lyon conservatories in France, and in 1985 after being awarded the first prize in the contemporary music category at the Yehudi Menuhin Competition, he was invited by Menuhin to perform at a concert in Berlin in 1989. Hailed by the late Yehudi Menuhin as "the violinist of the 21st Century", Gilles Apap distinguishes himself as a resolute iconoclast. Menuhin described Apap as representing the direction in which music should evolve: on the one hand respect for the precious classical works, on the other hand, the discovery of contemporary (popular) music and its creative element. www.womadelaide.com.au /womusic/show-artist?wmu_artistid=artist_0799783acb0f6a0d141a47d5048882d7   (319 words)

Charles J. Stivale -- A-F Summary of L'Abecedaire de Gilles Deleuze Deleuze refers to someone recounting seeing a horse die in the street before the age of the automobile, and he translates this into the task of becoming a writer: Deleuze cites Dostoyevski, the dancer Nijinksi, Nietzsche, all of whom witnessed a horse dying in the street. Deleuze concludes by asking what relation one should or could have with an animal and speculates that it would be better to have an animal relation (not a human one) with an animal. Deleuze says that writing means pushing the language, the syntax, all the way to a particular limit, a limit that can be a language of silence, or a language of music, or a language that's, for example, a painful wailing (cf. www.langlab.wayne.edu /CStivale/D-G/ABC1.html   (7484 words)

Gilles Deleuze Gilles Deleuze, like Jacques Derrida, is a recent French philosopher and historian of philosophy whose name is associated with such movements as post-structuralism, post-modernism and deconstruction. This de-mystification of language allows Deleuze to return to a direct, empirical intuition of the self, absolutely unmediated by language, and thus he is not concerned to derive the essence of the unconscious from or through its linguistic effects, as in both deconstruction and Lacanian psychoanalysis. Deleuze died in pitiable circumstances in 1995, but the influence of his works has endured: both the work of the early Lyotard and that of the early to middle Derrida (particularly in the seminal essay Diffèrance, which quotes Nietzsche and Philosophy) have clearly been written under a more or less lengthy Deleuzean shadow. www.philosophers.co.uk /cafe/phil_nov2003.htm   (740 words)

Todd May - Gilles Deleuze: An Introduction - Reviewed by Keith Ansell Pearson, University of Warwick - Philosophical Reviews - University of Notre Dame In spite of their difficult and often obscure character, the writings of Gilles Deleuze (1925-95) are now widely recognised as constituting one of the most innovative projects in philosophy to have emerged in the second half of the twentieth century. Deleuze constantly re-invented the nature and terms of his thinking, making a series of decisions with respect to key concepts and constructions, but rarely made it explicit that he was doing this. Deleuze appears as an alien and exotic plant in the landscape of twentieth-century philosophy. ndpr.nd.edu /review.cfm?id=2741   (2341 words)

Gilles Deleuze's Bergsonian Film Project Deleuze continues, "In the city which is being demolished or rebuilt, neo-realism makes any-space-whatevers proliferate -urban cancer, undifferentiated fabrics, pieces of waste ground- which are opposed to the determined spaces of the old realism" (212). Deleuze describes five characteristics of the new time-image, which found their first expression in neo-realism: "...the dispersive situation, the deliberately weak links, the voyage form, the consciousness of clichés, [and] the condemnation of the plot" (Cinema 1, 210). Deleuze on the other hand, erected a two-volume Bergsonian philosophy of cinema toward the end of the century that stands as one of the most stimulating studies of time and cinema. www.horschamp.qc.ca /9903/offscreen_essays/deleuze1.html   (3573 words)

The Narrative-Machine: Buster Keaton's Cinematic Comedy, Deleuze's Recursion Function and the Operational Aesthetic Gilles Deleuze, Cinéma 1: L'image-mouvement, Les Editions de Minuit, Paris, 1983. That Deleuze's commentary on Keaton is not situated in the chapter on the large form of the action-image but in the one on the small form suggests that one should be wary about polarising the comedy of the small form and of the large form (polarising for instance, Chaplin and Keaton). While Deleuze himself is loathe to specify the role of the comic performer or the comedic in the discussions of cinematic comedy in either of his Cinema books (5), this essay explores the connection between the aesthetic that he identifies as specifically Keatonesque and the humorous quality of Keaton's narratives. www.sensesofcinema.com /contents/04/33/keaton_deleuze.html   (11977 words)

Cryptoanarchy through modern banking : Melbourne Indymedia Brassard and Bennett's invention sprung from their discovery of how principles from the previously unlinked fields of quantum physics and computer science could be combined to establish an unbreakable secret key. Already, experts agree, Brassard and Bennett's most famous invention, a technique known as quantum cryptography, is set to eliminate terrifying vulnerabilities that could soon arise in the way governments, banks, the military, business and the public use computers and the Internet to communicate and store data. Yet Brassard and Bennett haven't made a penny from these ventures; they've chosen not to patent their discovery in the hopes of fostering an environment where colleagues can feel unhindered in their efforts to develop the field. melbourne.indymedia.org /mail.php?id=87490   (199 words)
