Fellow townsmen and my noble constituents! : Representations of oratory on early commercial recordings
The advent of new technologies of communication and inscription will perforce be of interest to those of us concerned with the representation of performance, and indeed of anything else. In this paper we want to explore how the invention and early commercial development of the phonograph opened a cultural space for imagining how this new technology might be used for the representation of performance--specifically, oratorical performance--and how at least some of those imaginings were realized.Issue title: Performance Literature I.

Design considerations for CELT adaptive optics
California Institute of Technology and University of California have begun conceptual design studies for a new telescope for astronomical research at visible and infrared wavelengths. The California Extremely Large Telescope (CELT) is currently envisioned as a filled-aperture, steerable, segmented telescope of approximately 30 m diameter. The key to satisfying many of the science goals of this observatory is the availability of diffraction-limited wavefront control. We describe potential observing modes of CELT, including a discussion of the several major outstanding AO system architectural design issues to be resolved prior to the initiation of the detailed design of the adaptive optics capability
Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer Advancing from Conceptual Design
The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) project has completed its
Conceptual Design Phase. This paper is a status report of the MSE project
regarding its technical and programmatic progress. The technical status
includes its conceptual design and system performance, and highlights findings
and recommendations from the System and various subsystems design reviews. The
programmatic status includes the project organization and management plan for
the Preliminary Design Phase. In addition, this paper provides the latest
information related to the permitting process for Maunakea construction.Comment: 15 pages; Proceedings of SPIE Astronomical Telescopes +

O “narrador de máquina falante”: Cal Stewart e a remediação da contação de histórias
I offer in this paper a preliminary exploration of one historical instance of what I term the remediation of stardom, the process by which a performer for whom the qualities of stardom in the community milieu of copresence become a resource for stardom in the mass-mediated world of mechanical reproduction. I focus on the performance career of Cal Stewart, one of the earliest stars of commercial sound recording in the United States, who fashioned himself as “the talking machine story teller.” The recontextualization of a performance form from one medium to another involves both formal and pragmatic transformations as performers adapt communicative forms and practices to the affordances, participant structures, sensory modalities, and other constitutive features of a new medium. Those factors in turn will have a shaping influence on the process of symbolic construction by which stardom in one medium serves the creation of stardom in another.Apresento neste artigo uma exploração preliminar de um exemplo histórico daquilo que denomino remediar o estrelato, processo por meio do qual um performer com qualidades de estrelato no milieu da comunidade de copresença torna-se um recurso para o estrelato no mundo midiático de massa da reprodução mecânica. Concentro-me na carreira performática de Cal Stewart, uma das primeiras estrelas das gravações comerciais de áudio nos Estados Unidos, que se modelou como “o narrador de máquina falante”. A recontextualização da forma de uma performance de uma mídia para outra envolve transformações tanto formais quanto práticas, conforme os performers adaptam formas e práticas comunicativas aos recursos (affordances), estruturas participantes, modalidades sensoriais, e outras características constitutivas de uma nova mídia. Esses fatores, por sua vez, terão uma influência modeladora no processo de construção simbólica por meio do qual o estrelato em uma mídia é utilizado na criação do estrelato em outra mídia
