The construction of subjectivities and enemies in global warming
It has been argued that the issue of global warming has become incorporated into a postpolitical condition that has deprived it of a proper political subject. In this article, the depoliticizing process is examined through a historical analysis of Swedish election campaigns, 1988 to 2014, a domain that traditionally features political language and politicizations. The analysis shows how the rhetoric of political parties was characterized by an in…
Visions of the good future
The relationship between time and politics is complex and multilayered, especially in issues such as global warming. This facilitates political playing with and about time; political actors use and frame time in various ways. Drawing upon the work of Reinhart Koselleck, this article examines temporal statements about the environment and the climate in Swedish election campaigns 1988 to 2018 and shows how political rhetoric has been constituted by…
Relations between perceived affect and liking for melodies and visual designs
Sensory valuation is a fundamental aspect of cognition. It involves assigning hedonic value to a stimulus based on its sensory information considering personal and contextual factors. Hedonic values (e.g., liking) can be deemed affective states that motivate behavior, but the relations between hedonic and affective judgments have yet to be established. To fill this gap, we investigated the relations between stimulus features, perceived affect, an…
Disrupting the Present and Opening the Future
This article examines the temporal rhetoric of Extinction Rebellion and Fridays For Future to discuss how the new generation of climate movement organizations offers ideas of an open future that can be acted upon. Research has shown how climate organizations create economic and social disruptions. However, as the article shows, they also create temporal disruptions. Taking theoretical inspiration from critical utopian studies, the article states …
On the need for (con) temporary utopias
This article examines how the discourse of the new generation of environmental youth movements highlights time and temporality in order to explain the possibilities of change that the movements offer. This is done by analyzing three influential and transnational youth climate movements-Earth Uprising, Extinction Rebellion, and Fridays For Future-in relation to three influential diagnoses of the current political condition: postpolitics, populism,…
Venturing beyond Koselleck’s Erwartungshorizont
For a long time, the reception of German historian and theorist Reinhart Kosellecks work focused on disciplinary and methodological aspects of conceptual history (Begriffsgeschichte). However, in recent years, there has been an increased interest in Kosellecks more theoretical discussions on historical time and temporality, highlighting his oeuvre of a theory of the conditions for possible histories (Historik). Taking its cue from the current tre…
History Politics and (Re)forming the Future
During the First World War, the legitimacy of established polities was challenged throughout Europe. Not only did the war affect the great powers; smaller nations that were not directly involved also experienced a resurgence of constitutional disputes. While these controversies have been analyzed as conceptual struggles, this article – inspired by Reinhart Koselleck’s theory of historical times – suggests that they can also be understood as ideol…

The Changing Meanings of the Welfare State: Histories of a Key Concept in the Nordic Countries . Ed. Nils Edling. New York: Berghahn Books, 2019. Pp. 343. Since the 1940s, the welfare state has become an established political concept as well as an academic term. Most often, however, the concept is
Democracy in the Plural
The article explores some of the composite concepts of democracy that were used in Sweden, primarily by the Social Democrats during the interwar years. Should these be seen as pluralizations of the collective singular democracy or as something qualitatively new? By showing how these concepts relate to each other and to democracy as a whole, the article argues that they should be considered statements about democracy as one entity, that democracy …
Rhetorics of Nordic Democracy
Jussi Kurunmaki & Johan Strang (Eds) Helsinki, Finnish Literature Society, 2010 297 pp., 240 SEK, ISBN 978-95-2222-228-2 It is no overstatement to argue that much has been written about democratic
Affect, Attitude and Evaluation of Multisensory Performances
The EU-IST project MEGA (Multisensory Expressive Gesture Applications; see www.megaproject.org) addresses innovative technologies for multimodal interactive systems in artistic scenarios. Basic research on expressive communication in music, gesture and dance has been focused by EU-IST-funded European researchers in psychology, technology and computer engineering. The output from this cooperation with artists has also revealed ideas and innovation…
The Mega Project
This article presents a survey of the research work carried out within the framework of the European Union-IST project MEGA (Multisensory Expressive Gesture Applications, November 2000 – October 2003; www.megaproject.org). First, the article introduces a layered conceptual framework for analysis and synthesis of expressive gesture. Such a framework represents the main methodological foundation upon which the MEGA project built its own research. A…
Attempts to Reproduce a Pianist?s Expressive Timing with Director Musices Performance Rules
The Director Musices generative grammar of music performance is a system of context dependent rules that automatically introduces expressive deviation in performances of input score files. A number of these rule concern timing. In this investigation the ability of such rules to reproduce a professional pianist’s timing deviations from nominal note inter-onset-intervals is examined. Rules affecting tone inter-onset-intervals were first tested one …
Toward a computational model of expression in music performance
This article presents a computational model of expression in music performance: the GERM model. The purpose of the GERM model is to (a) describe the principal sources of variability in music performance, (b) emphasize the need to integrate different aspects of performance in a common model, and (c) provide some preliminaries (germ = a basis from which a thing may develop) for a computational model that simulates the different aspects. Drawing on …
Music from Motion
The common association of music with motion was investigated in a direct way. Could the original motion quality of different gaits be transferred to music and be perceived by a listener? Measurements of the ground reaction force by the foot during different gaits were transferred to sound by using the vertical force curve as sound level envelopes for tones played at different tempi. Three listening experiments assessed the motion quality of the r…
Musical punctuation on the microlevel
In this investigation we use the term musical punctuation for the marking of melodic structure by commas inserted at the boundaries that separate small structural units. Two models are presented that automatically try to locate the positions of such commas. They both use the score as the input and operate with a short context of maximally five notes. The first model is based on a set of subrules. One group of subrules mark possible comma position…
Mailed Suggestions Improve Visual Quality of Poster Presentations
Mailing poster presenters a brochure suggesting ways to improve their posters led to visually better posters. A brochure describing 24 ways to improve poster presentations was mailed to a random sample of presenters two months prior to the 1994 Annual Convention of the Swedish Medical Association. Three pairs of observers, unaware of who had received the brochure, evaluated 146 posters [88 recipients ( n = 105), 58 nonrecipients ( n = 70)]. Broch…
Speech and music performance
Speech and music performance are two important systems for interhuman communication by means of acoustic signals. These signals must be adapted to the human perceptual and cognitive systems. Hence a comparitive analysis of speech and music performances is likely to shed light on these systems, particularly regarding basic requirements for acoustic communication. Two computer programs are compared, one for text-to-speech conversion and one for not…
Rules for automated performance of ensemble music
Recently developed parts of a computer program are presented that contain a rule system which automatically converts music scores to musical performance, and which, in a sense, can be regarded as a model of a musically gifted player. The development of the rule system has followed the analysis-by-synthesis strategy; various rules have been formulated according to the suggestions of a professional string quartet violinist and teacher of ensemble p…
