This paper describes AR-Jazz, an augmented reality application designed to visualize sound and movements in live jazz performances. The augmented scenario is achieved within the program Max MSP Jitter, with an integrated inertial sensor and a microphone. As a display, a cinema screen is used. The application was first shown at the SedaJazz Festival 2007 in Valencia (Spain). In first place, a wo...

This article examines cinematic remembrances of the Atlantic slave trade through the lens of Paul Robeson-starring British film The Song of Freedom (1936). An exceptional visualization of the horrors of the Middle Passage in transatlantic interwar cinema, the production nevertheless recapitulates an abolitionist visual paradigm characterized by lacunae and distortion. Yet, it also serves as an ...

This paper studies the interaction between vertical integration and platform ecosystem, two co-existing intra-organizational forms. Specifically, the work investigates the moderating role of platform strategies on the relationship between vertical integration and performance. The study analyzes data from 1922 cinemas of China’s film industry that is undergoing business transformation as a resul...

Contrast inherent inflow-enhanced multi-phase angiography combining multiple-phase flow-alternating inversion-recovery (CINEMA-FAIR) is an arterial-spin-labeling-based four-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography (4D-MRA) technique. Two neuroradiologists independently evaluated the depiction of the intracranial vasculatures in healthy subjects with 3T 4D-MRA using CINEMA-FAIR. Our results in...

We describe the architecture and implementation of our comprehensive multi-platform collaboration framework known as Columbia InterNet Extensible Multimedia Architecture (CINEMA). It provides a distributed architecture for collaboration using synchronous communications like multimedia conferencing, instant messaging, shared web-browsing, and asynchronous communications like discussion forums, s...

This paper describes the configuration of distributed multimedia applications using the CINEMA system. Components, interconnected by links via ports are used to handle multimedia data. Configuration management controls these interconnections, establishes components in threads on different systems and allows an interactive control of data handling functions. We present an object-oriented interfa...
