navigating an intertwingularity: computational ambivalence in experimental music practice

This project offers a provisional, practitioner-oriented notion of ‘computational ambivalence’ in experimental music, addressing how many musicians sensitive to the non-neutrality of music technologies resist adopting a single overarching stance towards software, and therefore cannot extricate their technological questioning from music making itself. Computational ambivalence is established in relation to three idiosyncratically-defined ‘threads’ — experimental music, music computing, and critical cultural computing — and is exhibited in and through a ‘field guide’, speculative historical case studies on Iannis Xenakis’s Theraps and James Tenney’s Quintext, reflections on my own musical practice, and an accompanying portfolio of music and software

Jewish Studies in the Digital Age

The digitisation boom of the last two decades, and the rapid advancement of digital tools to analyse data in myriad ways, have opened up new avenues for humanities research. This volume discusses how the so-called digital turn has affected the field of Jewish Studies, explores the current state of the art and probes how digital developments can be harnessed to address the specific questions, challenges and problems in the field

New Perspectives in Biblical and Rabbinic Hebrew

"Most of the papers in this volume originated as presentations at the conference Biblical Hebrew and Rabbinic Hebrew: New Perspectives in Philology and Linguistics, which was held at the University of Cambridge, 8–10th July, 2019. The aim of the conference was to build bridges between various strands of research in the field of Hebrew language studies that rarely meet, namely philologists working on Biblical Hebrew, philologists working on Rabbinic Hebrew and theoretical linguists. This volume is the published outcome of this initiative. It contains peer-reviewed papers in the fields of Biblical and Rabbinic Hebrew that advance the field by the philological investigation of primary sources and the application of cutting-edge linguistic theory. These include contributions by established scholars and by students and early career researchers.
