Decolonizing Biblical and GraecoRoman Antiquities.

Exploring Text, Media and Memory investigates the link between memory and media by asking a series of questions pertinent to our time.

In ten original essays, Danish music and media scholars discuss aspects of music on the radio from the 1920s until today.

"Tatiana Chemi's book is consistent in its argumentation and comprehensive in regards to the subject it deals with. It results in an original contribution, as it brings together the different aspects of the "comic experience" Samuel Beckett had, discussing them at the different stages of his literary, dramatic, and cinematographic production." -- Giancario Alfano, Associate Professor in Literature, Second University of Napoli, Italy

Buildings, bridges and tunnels are continuously exposed to forces of nature such as wind, waves, earthquakes and even traffic. Because these forces are hard to predict and model, it is also hard to predict how these structures respond. Stochastic Dynamics introduces a way of modeling forces and responses using stochastic systems, providing a method of statistical analysis where precise predictions are impossible. Including topics such as stochastic processes, stochastic vibration theory of linear structures, reliability theory of dynamicstructures and Monte Carlo techniques, this book explains stochastic structural dynamics and how to apply it to modern structures.

The objective of this work is not to suggest complete theories, neither absolute design solutions. It much more takes the path of directing the attention to a way of approaching architectural design via tectonic generators' and the arrangement of these in order to create a continuum of ideas, which gradually raise design knowledge. Three short theoretical texts are provided by Adrian Carter, Michael U Hensel and Isak Worre Foged in the effort to direct the attention to tectonic works, ideas and questions. These are followed by a series of student projects, who for a short and intense period worked within a methodology that progressively implements tectonic vantage points. Descriptions, questions and images are intended to inspire new methodological approaches in architecture that care for the joint integration of performative and formal aspects in architecture.
