REALITAS MAGIK DALAM MUSIK TRADISIONAL MINANGKABAU SEBUAH PERSPEKTIF KAJIAN BUDAYA
Magic, is culture elements which has been depeloped since the primitive era. The development of civilization and culture does not disappear the belief of the attitude which are related with magic. The fact show, that until now (modern era and some even called if a postmodern), magic still plays important function and role in society, eventhough substantially the purposes that wants to be achieved are different. This brief writing tries to discuss in such analytic descriptive way about magic realization within traditional music of Minangkabau. This phenomenon is interesting to be discuss specially with if connects to Moslem as the majority belief in Minangkabau society. In Moslems there are not allowed comparing the belief and attitudes which are related with magic especially black magic, since those beliefs and attitudes consider as comparing two Gods. But on the other hand, the beliefs and attitudes that are related with magic are some how a fact and reality that cannot be argued in the Minangkabau society which one of them is implemented by the people through traditional music
Interview with Erica Uszak: Scholarship Recipient for 2018 CWI Summer Conference
Recently, the CWI reached out to Erica Uszak ’22 to reflect on her experience at the 2018 CWI Summer Conference. Uszak, currently a freshman at Gettysburg College studying History and the Civil War, was one of ten high school students to receive a scholarship to attend the conference. Any high school student with an interest in history is eligible to apply for the High School Scholarship. [excerpt
Integrability of dominated decompositions on three-dimensional manifolds
We investigate the integrability of two-dimensional invariant distributions (tangent sub-bundles) which arise naturally in the context of dynamical systems on 3-manifolds. In particular, we prove unique integrability of dynamically dominated and volume-dominated Lipschitz continuous invariant decompositions as well as distributions with some other regularity conditions
Integrability of C^1 invariant splittings
We derive some new conditions for integrability of dynamically defined C^1
invariant splittings in arbitrary dimension and co-dimension. In particular we
prove that every 2-dimensional C^1 invariant decomposition on a 3-dimensional
manifold satisfying a volume domination condition is uniquely integrable. In
the special case of volume preserving diffeomorphisms we show that standard
dynamical domination is already sufficient to guarantee unique integrability.Comment: 12 page
War and the Coronavirus pandemic
Catherine Connolly reflects on the use of war metaphors in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, the violence of ongoing sanctions, and the need for solidarity in the face of alienation
