以简约主义为基础的音乐作曲技术分析

简约主义音乐通常被认为是自20世纪开始发展起来的音乐风格以及创作模式,这种音乐的最大特点就是多次重复使用主题乐段,并且缓慢地或者不加更改地表现出和谐的音乐整体,与此同时,作曲家在创作过程中很少使用音乐材料完成创作,在高音素材方面主要以自然音体系作为基础,其中也使用了非功能的方式构成和弦进行。值得提到的是,简约主义音乐对于西方音乐发展产生了至关重要的作用,其在诞生之初虽然受到了很多音乐批评家的严厉批评,这些人认为简约主义音乐太过单一、死板且缺少动力,然而它却在学术研究方面以及先锋音乐家内获得了认可,此类音乐所包含的简约使一直追求单纯性音乐的作曲家们找到了创作灵感,获得了共鸣。简约主义音乐促使音乐发展进入了全新的阶段,许多著名作曲家逐渐通过这种作曲方式进行创作。     

Minimalist Instruction for Learning to Search the World Wide Web

This study examined the efficacy of minimalist instruction to develop self-regulatory skills involved in Web searching. Two versions of minimalist self-regulatory skill instruction were compared to a control group that was merely taught procedural skills to operate the search engine. Acquired skills were tested on Web search tasks and search tasks in an online library catalogue. Self-regulatory skill instruction was found to increase practice time by 25%. However, it did not enhance search performance on the test tasks. Explanations are advanced for these findings and topics for further research are identified.     

底线伦理、最低限度的道德与当代价值观教育

底线伦理、最低限度的道德的提出有着复杂的社会原因,当代社会道德滑坡和不断出现的突破道德底线的事件是直接的原因.价值观教育是道德教育的精神内涵,底线伦理、最低限度的道德的理论向价值观教育提出了新的要求,也提供了解决道德价值观教育缺乏实效问题的可能途径.价值观的非理性和非知识性特点使得价值观教育要远复杂于理性的知识教育.关乎个人道德成长、关乎个人与他人关系、个人与社会关系等的价值观是底线伦理和最低限度的道德所必须要求的;价值观教育的途径和方法需要吸收现代德育研究成果,使其更为生动和易被青少年所接受;价值观教育还要求一个公正的社会.

Against accumulation: lifestyle minimalism,de-growth and the present post-ecological condition

The post-2008 financial crisis era has seen an upsurge in popular cultural narratives that implicitly challenge principles of economic productivity, consumption and growth by lamenting a so-called ‘world of too much,’ advocating ethics of minimalism, and renouncing everyday busyness. Narratives range from lifestyle advice on simplicity and de-cluttering private homes, to quests for the reduction of individual labor, communication, social contacts and distraction. This article questions these narratives in terms of eco-politics. Using Kate Soper’s concept of ‘alternative hedonism,’ the article analyzes a selection of five self-help books and one blog that promote lifestyle minimalism in order to interrogate their potential in stimulating de-growth eco-politics through popular culture. Drawing on post-ecological theory, it argues that narratives of lifestyle minimalism are paradoxical in that they resist yet at the same time promote capitalist cultures of growth. To overcome this limitation, it is crucial to understand and transform the narrative premises of lifestyle minimalism in ways that contextualize problems of ‘excess,’ ‘clutter’ and ‘a world of too much’ as intrinsic to the current system of capital accumulation. The article concludes by reflecting on the potential of an eco-movement that joins the alternative culture of minimalist hedonism with the eco-political agenda of de-growth.
