Full textA comunicação visual desempenha um papel fundamental na compreensão de múltiplas realidades, sobretudo quando esta tem a capacidade de modificar a perceção das mesmas. Na dança, este tipo de comunicação torna-se essencial para interpretar corretamente as diversas obras, bem como os movimentos que lhes são inerentes. O presente projeto de investigação tem como objeto de estudo a notação de dança. A dança não possui um sistema de notação de universalmente padronizado, fator que condiciona o seu desenvolvimento a nível criativo, educativo e profissional, bem como a documentação de movimento coreográfico que assegure a sobrevivência do trabalho desenvolvido neste âmbito e a sua preservação histórica. O principal objetivo desta investigação consiste em compreender os sistemas de notação de dança considerados casos de referência, identificando os principais problemas e qualidades dos mesmos. O processo investigativo segue uma metodologia não intervencionista de base qualitativa. A abordagem tomada no processo da revisão da literatura abrangente de diversas áreas de conhecimento do campo investigativo do design de comunicação, como a semiologia e a semiótica, o design gráfico, a notação, bem como as áreas da música e da dança, conduziu a uma compreensão das mesmas. Por sua vez, esta permitiu realizar uma análise de casos de estudo relevantes, possibilitando a recolha de informações fundamentais para percecionar a realidade e o contexto do ambiente e do espaço em investigação, assim como as principais problemas e qualidades dos mesmos. Deste modo, foi possível avaliar os resultados obtidos. O principal resultado desta investigação consiste num contributo para o desenvolvimento da comunicação visual na dança, bem como para o conhecimento da área em questão.
ABSTRACT: Visual communication plays a fundamental role in the comprehension of multiple realities, particularly when it has the capacity to modify their perception. In dance, this type of communication becomes essential to correctly interpret the multiple works, as well as the movement inherent to them. This investigation project’s subject of analysis is the notation of dance. Dance does not have a universally standardized system of notation, a factor which conditions it’s development on a creative, educational and professional level, as well the documentation of choreographic movement which would ensure the survival of the work developed in this context and its historical preservation. The main goal in this research is to understand the dance notation systems considered as reference cases and identifying their main problems and qualities. The investigative process follows a non-interventionist, qualitative based methodology. The approach taken in the process of literature revision, which spans multiple areas of knowledge from the investigational field of communication design, like semiology and semiotics, graphical design, notation, as well as some fields of music and dance, has led to comprehension of these.In turn, it has allowed a relevant case study analysis to be made, enabling the gathering of information vital to perceiving the reality and the context of the environment and the space being investigated, as well as the main issues and qualities of these. This allowed for the analysis of the obtained results. The main result of this investigation consists of a contribution to the development of visual communication in dance, as well as to the knowledge of the field in question.

Resumo: O presente trabalho foi motivado pela experiência pessoal de sua autora como musicista com deficiência visual e representa a continuidade da Dissertação de Mestrado intitulada "Leitura musical na ponta dos dedos: caminhos e desafios do ensino da musicografia braille na perspectiva de alunos e professores", defendida no Departamento de Música,do Instituto de Artes da Unicamp. Nele são abordados aspectos relativos ao ensino e à difusão do código musical em braille, enfatizando-se, sobretudo,as concepções subjacentes à Educação Inclusiva. Esta pesquisa possui um enfoque qualitativo, pois visa apreender as percepções dos indivíduos frente aos desafios da alfabetização musical em braille. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio do acompanhamento e estudo de três casos, nos quais três sujeitos experienciaram o processo de aprendizado da notação musical desenvolvida para os cegos. Além disso, foi realizada uma investigação acerca dos meios utilizados para a transcrição de partituras em Braille, delineando-se as peculiaridades desse processo. Na análise dos dados coletados, discute-se o papel do educador musical, do aluno com deficiência visual e do especialista em aplicações da musicografia braille. Como desdobramentos deste trabalho, há a produção de um áudio-documentário que retrata o desenvolvimento da pesquisa e a implantação de um acervo musical que contém obras em braille. São, por fim, levantadas questões relevantes, que podem resultar em novas investigações sobre o tema e na implementação de iniciativas favoráveis ao ensino e a difusão da musicografia braille. A pesquisa contou com o apoio da FAPESP e com a infraestrutura do Laboratório de Acessibilidade da Biblioteca Central Cesar Lattes da UNICAMP

Resumo: O presente estudo foi motivado pela experiência pessoal de sua autora,musicista com deficiência visual. Ele aborda aspectos referentes ao ensino da Musicografia Braille, que por sua vez, consiste na notação musical criada por Louis Braille para uso de pessoas cegas. A partir de um enfoque qualitativo, buscou-se investigar a percepção de estudantes de Música com deficiência visual e de seus respectivos professores acerca das condições atuais de aplicação da Musicografia Braille ao campo da educação musical. Por meio de entrevistas e questionários, os sujeitos relataram suas experiências, a partir das quais se pôde estabelecer um panorama sobre o ensino desse sistema de escrita. Para análise dos dados, foi utilizada a técnica de formulação do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo, que visa apreender os pensamentos e as crenças comuns a uma dada população. Os dados colhidos foram discutidos mediante o stabelecimento de categorias e subcategorias concebidas a partir dos depoimentos. Nesse estudo, buscou-se também investigar e avaliar as ferramentas tecnológicas atualmente utilizadas para a produção de partituras em Braille e, de acordo com essa avaliação, foram criados procedimentos que otimizassem a transcrição de obras musicais. Com base na realização desse estudo, concluiu-se que, na atualidade, há muitos obstáculos que impedem o acesso ao ensino da Musicografia Braille, dos quais decorre a grande desinformação por parte de alunos e professores. Apontou-se para a necessidade de uma maior difusão da notação musical em Braille, tanto através de novas produções acadêmicas, quanto através de iniciativas que facilitem a implantação de acervos musicais transcritos para esse Sistema
Abstract: The current study was motivated by the author's life experience being both blind and a musician. It covers different aspects of Braille Music Writing, which is the musical notation created by Louis Braille for blind musicians. Using a qualitative approach, this study investigates the opinion of blind music students and their teachers regarding the current application of Braille Music Writing in musical education. Subjects described their experiences with Braille Music Writing through interviews and questionnaires, enabling the researcher to establish a panorama of music teaching in Braille. Data was analyzed using the technique of formulation of the General Subject Discourse that aims to extract and summarize thoughts and beliefs of a given population. Subjects' opinions were divided into categories and results were drawn from each category. In his study, the author also investigated current technological tools commonly used to produce Braille music sheets, and created a protocol to optimize musical transcription into Braille. The author concluded that there are many obstacles that currently obstruct the access of blind students and their professors to Braille Music Writing, and therefore generates misinterpretation of its potential and usage. As a consequence, the author emphasizes the need for diffusion of information regarding Braille Music writing both through its use within the university and the establishment of Braille music sheets libraries

Vincent, Marc. "Validation de la simulation de l’astigmatisme : application aux verres progressifs Effect of simulated and real spherical and astigmatism defocus on visual acuity and image quality score Subjective Evaluation of Defocus and Astigmatism Combinations Using Image Simulation in Presbyopes Method of assigning progressive addition lenses based on subjective image quality score." Thesis, université Paris-Saclay, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020UPASP043.
Full textVision through a progressive addition lens is a dynamic process especially in near vision when reading. The wearer is led to look into the side parts of the lens. These areas contain astigmatism, which can be particularly annoying. There are different types of progressive addition lenses that are characterized by a specific distribution of astigmatism around the periphery. The objective, in the long term, would be to allow a selection of progressive addition lenses by presenting the future wearer with simulated images for which he or she would have to give notes related to the quality of the perceived image. Using an optical calculation (i.e., convolution between an object and a point spread function), we can simulate the appearance of an image seen through an optic. The objective of this work is therefore to validate the possibility of simulating vision through a progressive addition lens and to make the link between vision quality and wearer choice. In a first step, we compared the quality of vision through adaptive optics simulating spherical and cylindrical defocus with simulated images showing the same optical defects. A difference in vision quality between 20 (i.e. spherical blur) and 35% (i.e. astigmatic blur) between simulated and optical blur was observed. The simulated blur was always greater than the optical blur. These differences were less than the clinically significant difference. In a second step, we directly used a progressive addition lens. The optical defocus tested were then spherical and cylindrical combinations corresponding to specific points of the progressive addition lens along the horizontal axis passing through the near vision optical center. We considered in the simulation of our images that the subject could accommodate. We observed that accommodation played a role when comparing the optical blur with the simulated blur. Presbyopic subjects appear to be able to produce a low level of accommodation that offsets some of the deleterious effect of astigmatism on image quality. We then set up a full-field progressive addition lens analysis device leading to the choice of a type of progressive lens by different wearers. At the same time, we measured vision quality (i.e., simulated image scoring and visual acuity measurement) along the horizontal axis of near vision for these same subjects. The results of the latter study showed that visual acuity is not a good test for predicting vision quality through progressive lenses; the test only worked for 65% of the subjects. On the contrary, the subjective image scoring test predicted the final design choice for 90% of the subjects. Although the statistical results obtained for the different simulated image conditions show a real difference between the real and simulated conditions, we observe that simulated images taking into account some accommodation (i.e., change of sphere in the simulation) are closer to reality. Accommodation thus seems to play an important role when astigmatism is introduced. The study of accommodation in the presence of astigmatism would make it possible to optimize the simulation of the images

Full textThe purpose of this research is to analyse graphic scores and the sound-image interaction arising thereform. The research corpus includes both scores that use a notation of a more plastic caracter like the subtype textual or verbal, and some mixed scores, which allow a glimpse into the text-image relationship established. Once the instrumental music is a performative art, we will also deal with some enunciative aspects presents both in writing the work, carried out by the composer, as in his interpretation, during reading and performance of the work for the interpreter. The methodology consist in developing and applying the concepts of intersemioticity, emphasizing its linguistic basis, and linearity and tabularity in visual enunciated. We also intend to relate these concepts to the way occurs the enunciation in different instances of the musical text. Moreover, this research will also have a diachronic bias, in the sense that we intend to address some types of notation used throughout music history and how the transition between systems of notation occurred

Full textThe present work involves an analytical description of the behaviors of blind and visually impaired pianists when memorizing and rendering on the piano various tasks presented to the ear or on written material adapted to their visual disability. This adaptation, which consists in transcribing ordinary music scores in braille, for the blind, or in large print, for the visually impaired, entails important consequences. Two conditions result in those musicians having to perform a very difficult integrating and synthesizing task: on the one hand, musical braille is complex, being highly abstract and characterized by permanent spatial linearity; on the other hand, the technique for enlarging ordinary texts is not compatible with synthetic reading and a very restricted visual field. Those circumstances lead us to investigate how those musical notations and the mental representations they generate affect the memorizing process when vision is totally or partially lacking. The main objective is to pinpoint the specific processes underlying the assimilation of the data inscribed on the reading material. To this end, I have carried out a case study involving young non-professional blind and visually impaired pianists using diverse reading procedures

Goal-oriented modeling languages are one of the most important areas in requirements engineering. Almost all requirements are described in graphical languages to facilitate communication and representation. The i* language can be used in the early phase in modeling requirements to analyze and describe the goals and intentions of system stakeholders. The i* goal-oriented language has received much attention from academics but few real-world projects have conducted goal-oriented requirements analysis using the language. Therefore, some scholars have tried to improve the i* language from the perspective of cognitive effectiveness. Moody proposes some propositions based on the visual notations of the i* language. Since these propositions are not validated, this study aims to empirically compare cognitive effectiveness between two designs of visual notations for the i* language. The results revealed that there were significant differences in comprehension correctness and perceived ease of use between the two groups. Although reading time did not significantly differ, reading time by the participants learning the visual design proposed by Moody was shorted than reading time by the other group learning the original i* language.

Full text“Mixed-method thinking” is an approach to composition characterized by the interaction of three streams of compositional thought: instrumental, electroacoustic and computing-based. It takes the form of a network within which the composer goes back and forth between these three types of conceptualization and succeeds in finding equivalences between parameters. Instrumental thinking is connected to the Western notated compositional tradition, electroacoustic thinking alludes to practices derived from the analog studio environment and the acousmatic music tradition, and computing-based thinking refers to visual programming and spectral analysis practices. Common areas exist where all three forms of thinking interact: Ivo Malec’s notion of the instrumental studio, Helmut Lachenmann’s notion of musique concrète instrumentale, computer-assisted composition, spectral music, the montage approach to instrumental composition, acousmatic music inspired by the written musical tradition and genres combining instruments with fixed media or electronics. These areas comprise the influences around which I composed a corpus of two cycles of works: Les Larmes du Scaphandre and Nano-Cosmos. Analysis of these works demonstrates the notion of “mixed-method thinking” through the adoption of electroacoustic thinking in my instrumental composition practice, computational thinking in my musical practice, and instrumental thinking in my electroacoustic practice.
