Sinopse

Nicolas Poussin(1594 - 1665) was undoubtedly a highly significant master of the historical genre. He shaped its aesthetics which, regrettably, subsequently became regarded as a set of hard-and-fast rules (a trap which the Russian followers of the founder of classicism also fell into). We know that Poussin attributed prime significance to the actual choice of matter for depiction, giving preference to subjects which provided food for profound thought. Creatively reworking the aesthetic legacy of the Ancients, he introduced into the realm of painting the concept of the “modus” (mood of depiction), which established the functional unity of three components: the idea, the structure of the depiction, and its perception by the viewer. Composition assumed a predominant significance in his artistic system. In a letter of 1665, Nicolas Poussin put forward three main theses: firstly, painting is simply imitation; secondly, it aims to bring delight; Thirdly, the artist is endowed with a natural talent that no one can give him or deprive him of.

    INCEPTION 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Inception is a mind-bending science fiction thriller directed by Christopher Nolan. The film follows Dom Cobb, a skilled thief who specializes in "extraction," stealing secrets from within a person's subconscious during dreams. Cobb is offered a chance to have his criminal past erased if he can perform the impossible: "inception," planting an idea in someone's mind without them realizing. To achieve this, he assembles a team and navigates multiple layers of dreams within dreams. The movie explores themes of memory, guilt, reality, and the power of the subconscious, blending action with deep philosophical questions about perception and identity. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Christopher Nolan has said that the snow-based third-level dream was inspired by his favorite James Bond film, On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).” 
      
    “Joseph Gordon-Levitt performed all but one of his own stunts during the famous hallway fight scene, which took place in a spinning hallway.” 
      
    “According to cinematographer Wally Pfister, Warner Brothers executives suggested making this movie in 3D, but Christopher Nolan rejected the idea, claiming it would distract from the storytelling.” 
      
    “Leonardo DiCaprio was the only choice for the role of Cobb, according to Christopher Nolan and producer Emma Thomas.” 
      
    “Christopher Nolan first pitched Inception to Warner Brothers after completing his third film, Insomnia (2002), and received approval. However, the movie wasn't written at that time. It took nearly eight years to complete the script.”

    It might seem odd—a punk band introducing poetry into someone's life. But what if this lyrical influence was the reason you became a writer in the first place? 
     
    Days and Days weaves together two stories. One is a tale of friendship and self-discovery that occurs during a backpacking adventure through England, Scotland, and Ireland. The other celebrates the highly influential yet underestimated United Kingdom band Leatherface, a group that The Guardian called "the greatest British punk band of the modern era." Without so much as a single hostel booked, Chris MacDonald and his friend Jason cross the Atlantic. They sleep in train stations, endure a haunting on top of a volcano in Edinburgh, are driven out of Belfast by the IRA, and witness the mother of all storms. They also find themselves in the rehearsal space of their teenage punk idols, a building steeped in cultural significance for the Sunderland music scene. 
     
    Days and Days is about the silver thread that connects us even after drifting apart. It's a story about forgiveness and reflection, how beauty can be found within callous cladding. Leatherface band members, colleagues, and friends generously share personal insights that guide the listener into the melancholy, darkness, and humor that surround Sunderland's best-kept secret.

    Music and Technology - A Very...

    This Very Short Introduction takes an expansive and inclusive approach meant to broaden and challenge traditional views of music and technology. In its most common use, "music technology" tends to evoke images of twentieth and twenty-first century electronic devices: synthesizers, recording equipment, music notation software, and the like. This volume, however, treats all tools used to create, store, reproduce, and transmit music—new or old, electronic or not—as technologies worthy of investigation. 
     
     
     
    In this broad view, technology in music encompasses instruments, whether acoustic, electric or electronic; engraving and printing; sound recording and playback; broadcasting; software; and much more. Mark Katz challenges the view that technology is unnatural, something external to music. It was sometimes said in the early twentieth century that so-called mechanical music (especially player pianos and phonographs) was a menace to "real" music; alternatively, technology can be freighted with utopian hopes and desires, as happens today with music streaming platforms like Spotify. Positive or negative, these views assume that technology is something that acts upon music; by contrast, this volume characterizes technology as an integral part of all musical activity and portrays traditional instruments and electronic machines as equally technological.
