a scientist finds a way of becoming invisible , but in doing so , he becomes murderously insane .
stalker is another powerful creature hayden encounters . this one however is completely invisible and it only reveals itself when shot or frozen in place .
jeff started playing video games in the ' 80s and has been writing about them for game informer since 2009 . over the years he has collected more video games and board games than he could ever hope to play in a single lifetime .
benjamin reeves is a writer , journalist , and geek sponge . for the last 12 years he has worked as an editor for game informer magazine . he has a passion for video games , comic books , and pizza .
lunchtime arrives , and the narrator returns to the locker room to retrieve his lunch , interrupting a union meeting . some members accuse him of being a “fink , ” or an informer , when they hear that he is brockway’s assistant . the men resolve to investigate the narrator and then allow him to retrieve his lunch . when brockway learns about the union meeting , he becomes furious and threatens to kill the narrator if he doesn’t leave the plant . the narrator denies belonging to the union . brockway and the narrator begin pummeling each other until brockway loses his dentures while biting the narrator . brockway blubbers about the union trying to steal his job . the narrator notices the boilers hissing , and brockway shouts for him to turn the valve in order to lower the pressure . the narrator doesn’t have the strength to do so , however , and the boiler explodes . the narrator falls unconscious under a pile of machinery and “stinking goo . ”
two people solve the mystery of the disappearance of a heavily insured emerald necklace .
the narrator arrives at the liberty paints plant . a huge electric sign reads “
in february ahead of the retail launch in march 2008 , the game was banned by the oflc ( the office of film and literature classification ) for sale in australia .
a bout de souffle was the first feature directed by jean - luc godard and one of the films introducing the french new wave in the late 1950s . godard had made several short films before a bout de souffle , but this feature established the international reputation of the director who is regarded as one of the most important filmmakers of the 1960s .
the narrator’s experiences at the liberty paints plant give ellison the chance to debunk a social and historical myth prevalent since before the civil war—that of the north as the land of freedom for black americans . the north , it turns out , perpetuates its own racist social structure , with which the narrator becomes further acquainted in the second half of the novel . the liberty paints plant serves as an extended metaphor for racial inequality in america . the factory’s authorities , with their slogans emphasizing concepts of whiteness and purity , imply the moral superiority of their whiteness . the inclusion of “liberty” in the factory’s name emphasizes that the factory’s leaders’ notions reflect those held by the leaders of america , a country supposedly founded on “liberty” and equality but in fact , ironically , advocating more freedom for the individuals it deems worthiest .
fill in the blank : the huge electric sign at the liberty paints plant reads : “keep america _ _ _ with liberty paints” .
when brockway boasts that one would have to crack open a chunk of coal painted with liberty paints’ optic white in order to determine its black essence , he illustrates how blackness becomes invisible beneath whiteness at the plant . mr . kimbro brags that the paint’s pure whiteness will cover anything , and indeed it covers the black chemical used to create it . that this specific shade of white is called “optic” equates whiteness with clarity . this label is ironic , however , because the brilliance of the paint is blinding . like a mask , the paint covers and conceals .
the blackmarket dealer is an arms dealer who supplies weapons and equipment without the governors on them to hayden for a number of rubles . he hides in the lasrian sewers all over the city .
dark sector has been one the most recent games to be banned in australia by the oflc . however on july 22 , 2009 , the full version of dark sector was released on the coverdisc of pc powerplay , an australian pc gaming magazine , although this is the censored version of the game .
later , the narrator is sent to the furnace room to assist the engineer , lucius brockway . brockway , who believes that assistants are always college - educated men who want to usurp his job , declares that he doesn’t need an assistant but sets the narrator to work anyway . he instructs the narrator to watch the pressure gauges on the boiler . brockway takes pride in his indispensable role in making optic white paint , liberty paint’s trademark color , since he alone can mix the base for the paint correctly . the slogan for the color is , “if it’s optic white , it’s the right white . ” the slogan reminds the narrator of an old southern saying : “if you’re white , you’re right . ”

hayden tenno ( voiced by [ michael rosenbaum ) is the game ' s main protagonist and anti - hero . infected by the technocyte virus , he sets out to stop the virus from spreading across the world .
an aristocratic but destitute southern family attempts to swindle an insurance company by faking the theft of a valuable emerald necklace . the company assigns operatives eve rogers and mike regan to the case . eve is nearly strangled by the scion of the family before being rescued by mike .
dark sector also has an online multiplayer aspect . there are only two modes ( titled ' infection ' and ' epidemic ' respectively ) and they feature : one randomly selected hayden character in a deathmatch against many soldier characters . another mode involves two hayden characters on separate teams ; with one team attempting to kill the opposing team ' s hayden first . in both modes , hayden will have superior powers compared to the soldiers . hayden will be able to become invisible , use the glaive , etc . whereas the soldiers cannot . the developer of dark sector , digital extremes , has also developed the critically acclaimed unreal series , well - known for their frantic and robust multiplayer .
after making contact with his superior again he is told that mezner has some infected on a ship and is trying to export the technocyte virus to the rest of the world . after fighting and hijacking another tank hayden pushes to the coast and hitches a ride on a helicopter to the ship . fighting the crew , he makes it into the cargo hold and accidentally releases a highly evolved technocyte monster which sinks the ship . hayden escapes with his life but yargo has been found and captured by the military .
when only a little of the black chemical remains , kimbro instructs the narrator to go to the tank room to get more . there , however , the narrator finds seven tanks marked by incomprehensible codes , leaving him unable to determine which tank contains the right chemical . he chooses one by scent and continues to mix and paint the tiles , but the tiles turn out sticky and gray , not hard and glossy . kimbro returns and becomes infuriated , scolding the narrator for putting concentrated remover into the paint and thereby ruining some seventy - five buckets of paint . kimbro fills the dropper with the correct chemical and leaves the narrator to his job . the paint samples still dry with a vague gray tinge , but kimbro doesn’t seem to notice .

working in dr . cranley ' s laboratory , scientist jack griffin was always given the latitude to conduct some of his own experiments . his sudden departure , however , has cranley ' s daughter flora worried about him . griffin has taken a room at the nearby lion ' s head inn , hoping to reverse an experiment he conducted on himself that made him invisible . unfortunately , the drug he used has also warped his mind , making him aggressive and dangerous . he ' s prepared to do whatever it takes to restore his appearance , and several will die in the process . written by garykmcd / edited by statmanjeff
hayden wakes up later with yargo , who tells him that he laced the booster with enferon , a chemical that kills the infected . he claims that he was worried that hayden would turn out like mezner because he had the same injections and the same infection , he also tells hayden that he can get a suit similar to the nemesis ' in the same building ; the vosro research facility , where the technocyte virus was made during the cold war . hayden saves yargo by sending him through the ventilation system and makes his way down towards the labs where the other suit is kept . after killing hordes of technocyte infested mutants and bypassing automated security systems , hayden discovers the suit in an airtight chamber . he enters the room , shooting the lock as he goes so nothing can follow him inside . just before he puts on the suit , nadia arrives outside the door and hayden pleads with her to leave before things get worse than they already are . she says that she ' s in too deep to get out now and that she is taking yargo to open the vault .
the game ' s main character is a man named hayden tenno ( voiced by michael rosenbaum of smallville fame ) , a morally ambivalent clean - up man employed by the cia . he has congenital analgia ( a real - life disorder ) which renders him unable to feel pain . on a mission in a fictional former eastern bloc nation , he is exposed to a biological compound which mutates him , dramatically changing his right arm , and giving him the ability to grow a three - bladed throwable weapon called a glaive at will . as explained in game informer magazine , the glaive is a part of his body , can be used to generate light , and can be controlled remotely by the player .
in the early ‘90s , id software flipped the gaming industry on its side when it popularized the first - person shooter with doom and wolfenstein 3d . now shooters are one of the most common video game genres on the market , delivering everything from high - intensity shootouts like call of duty to thought - provoking stories like bioshock and even sprawling loot - fests like borderlands . the diversity of today’s first - person shooter market is due – in large part – to the inventive trailblazing of the original deus ex . but to better understand the impact of ion storm’s original shooter / rpg hybrid , you have to time travel back to the beginning of its development , in the early ‘90s .
an aristocratic but destitute southern family attempts to swindle an insurance company by faking the theft of a valuable emerald necklace . the company assigns operatives eve rogers ( linda stirling ) and mike regan ( william henry as bill henry ) to the case . eve is nearly strangled by the scion of the family before being rescued by mike .
he arrives at the entrance of the vault to rendezvous his superior ( his name is revealed to be
dixon
as seen on his uniform ) , who says he has made a deal with mezner and gives him a booster
for the road
. hayden is outraged and stabs him in the neck with the booster , and tells him that he
likes it
[ the infection ] and goes to destroy mezner . he kills all of the men under his superior ' s command and then enters the vault . once inside , mezner tries to convince hayden to join him . this doesn ' t work and hayden goes deeper into the vault . he then finds the source of the technocyte , or at least the first known source : the submarine that appeared off the coast of lasria , only hayden finds out that the submarine was actually american ( either by accident or on purpose , we don ' t know ; it is implied that the american government knew all along ) . after the final showdown with mezner , and the technocyte hydra - like monstrosity he controls , yargo arrives to tell hayden that the transmission is still going out . hayden tries to fry the circuitry by using his glaive but before the dying mezner , who is not quite dead yet attacks him one last time stunning his right arm , before telling him
you are one of us now
. hayden then catches the now electrified glaive with his left hand and impales mezner ' s skull with it . with the transmission finally halted , the game ends with yargo saying
that was how it started , the irony of this disease , that in all the others it made evil , but for him it saved his soul
.
yargo menshik ( voiced by jürgen prochnow ) is a
sleeper agent
and a scientist who knows the origin of the technocyte virus .
the sales and product manager for afa interactive ( the local distributors of dark sector ) , adam zweck , told gamespot au that the game was banned due to its high impact violence , in particular the finishing moves the player can perform .
obviously we ' re disappointed in it .
we feel there is justification for an appeal . however , we ' re exploring several avenues at the moment to see what we can do to get the game on australian shelves .
hayden gets the suit and slaughters his way through infected and non infected alike , taking down 3 powered armour soldiers and finally finding nemesis . in the final showdown , hayden kills the nemesis and learns that it was actually nadia all along . she apologises for infecting hayden and tells him mezner is planning a worldwide transmission to spread the technocyte virus everywhere , hayden says that he can ' t stop him because the organization is in the way . nadia then tells him that she knows he ' ll
. . . do the right thing this time
, leaves him with the key to the vault , and then dies . hayden then hijacks another jackal tank and kills everyone in his path on his way to the vault .
he then arrives at a radio station to contact his superior for further instructions , with his right arm ' s skin degenerated and exposed flesh . the superior is informed of the situation and tells hayden to meet up with their sleeper agent , yargo mensik , to obtain boosters for the infection . soon , he hears the footsteps of an enemy soldier and attempts to ambush him . the soldier quickly gets the upper hand and pins hayden down . hayden ' s infected arm then produces the glaive , and slits the soldier ' s throat . another soldier enters the shed and shouts that he has
found him !
over his radio , only to be brutally decapitated by the glaive as hayden throws it at him . hayden continues along the coast , slowly gaining new abilities with the glaive as the infection progresses and produces some kind of metal that eventually surrounds his right arm completely , encountering both soldiers , haz - mat soldiers in masks , and the infected ( people infected with the virus and driven mad from pain . ) eventually hayden encounters a massive , ape - like monster with flesh covered in the same type of metal as hayden ' s infected arm . after a short conflict in which both hayden and the creature come to a neutral standstill , the monster is called back by some sort of signal .
the gunplay is similar to that of gears of war , resident evil 4 and dead space . the camera is positioned over the shoulder for third - person shooting , and the player can also take cover by standing next to an object such as a pillar or wall . while in cover , the player can pop out and fire , and also throw the glaive ; however there is no blind fire . there is also a sprint function , which works similar to that of gears of war . the game has no hud ( except for the ammo counter ) ; hayden ' s health is shown by the screen flashing red when he takes damage . if the player takes too much damage , the flashes will be faster , and a heartbeat will be heard , indicating hayden is
bleeding out
.
robert mezner ( voiced by dwight schultz ) is the game ' s main antagonist . cruel and ruthless , he plans to expand and spread the virus around the world . he claims he wants to create a new utopia .
hayden then makes his way further up the coast to a temporary military base set up in an abandoned pier . after fighting his way closer to the main building he overhears a lasrian soldier calling for help on a radio as he is slowly driven insane by the infection . hayden then delves into the basement area and after taking care of several infected makes his way to the roof . it is there he gains a new mutation ability and finally finds yargo . he tells hayden that his orders have been updated and gives him the booster to help slow the infection . hayden refuses and asks about the new intel .

although mort glickman is listed in the onscreen credits as the musical director of this film , richard cherwin is credited in that capacity by numerous reviews . according to a
. ” the narrator’s supervisor , mr . kimbro , leads him to a long room filled with buckets of paint . kimbro demonstrates the job : he opens buckets filled with a foul , milky brown substance and drips ten drops of another black chemical into them ; then he stirs the buckets vigorously until the paint becomes glossy white ; last , he applies the paint to small , rectangular wooden boards and waits for them to dry . if they dry brilliant white , then the job has been done correctly . kimbro brags that the optic white of liberty paints is the purest white that can be found anywhere . he says that it can cover up almost anything .
the oflc responded stating ,
dark sector contains violence that is high in impact and is therefore unsuitable for persons aged under 18 years to play .
the finishing moves and most violent game play includes decapitation , dismemberment of limbs accompanied by large blood spurts , neck breaking spurts , neck breaking twists and exploded bodies with post action twitching body parts . these moves are relatively easy to accomplish and once the player has mastered the moves and is able to get close to his foes , these violent moves can be executed ,
said the oflc ' s ruling .
successfully shooting an opponent results in the depiction of blood spray . when hayden cuts off his opponent ' s limb with the glaive , large amounts of blood spray forth from the stump and the injured person screams in agony which increases the impact .
sadly , spector’s plan didn’t work and the two teams immediately started causing more conflict , stalling the game - development process . there was so much tension between the two groups that spector had to name the two teams “design team 1” and “design team a , ” because neither group would concede to being called “2” or “b . ”

yargo tells him that he and the agency believe that mezner wants to recapture the infected which hayden released when he detonated the lasrian military base . mezner had retrieved an old transmitter which emits a signal that attracts technocyte creatures to its location and concealed it within an old church . we also learn that nadia , a woman hayden knows , is also working for mezner . hayden moves on towards the church to destroy the transmitter all the while taking care of legions of both lasrian soldiers and infected . being infected himself hayden is also attracted to the transmitter . on his way he fights a jackal tank and is knocked out after a fight with an agile , humanoid technocyte creature . he wakes up at night and continues his mission . eventually , he makes it into the church building where hayden and the colossus have one final showdown , after killing the colossus he makes his way into the catacombs and finds the transmitter . nadia , who has a deep - rooted hatred for hayden after his last meeting with her , confronts him . she escapes and leaves him to fight his way through a swarm of infected and escape before the c4 he set goes off .

set in the crumbling infrastructure of a fictional soviet - bloc country in the near future , the game features both single and multi - player action , with players working their way through a world where biological weapons are a hellish nightmare , let loose on an unsuspecting populace .
in a postmortem on the game inside the november 2000 issue of game developer magazine , spector talked about why his team faced so many design challenges . “i put together two groups of people with differing philosophies – a traditional rpg group and an immersive sim group . we were making a game designed to bust through genre boundaries , and i thought a little competition and argumentation would lead to an interesting synthesis of ideas . i thought i could manage the tension between the groups and that the groups and the game would be stronger for it . ”

despite all the technical problems , i still managed to finish homefront ' s campaign , but i can ' t say i had fun . all of the game ' s ambitions are undone by its flaws , offering only the rare glimpse of what could have been . dambuster has already stated they are committed to improving the game with additional patches , but given everything that ' s currently wrong , the studio faces a greater uphill battle than homefront ' s desperate underdogs .
the film ' s story is fairly simple . michel poiccard ( jean - paul belmondo ) , a small time hood , casually kills a policeman . he goes to paris to collect some money in order to leave the country , and tries to convince his american girlfriend patricia franchini ( jean seberg ) to go with him . she is less interested in accompanying him than she is in playing the role of an american intellectual in paris . ( she hawks the new york herald tribune on the champs - elysées while trying to establish herself as a journalist . ) when michel finally secures the money he needs and is ready to leave the city , patricia betrays him to the police , and he is shot as he half - heartedly attempts to escape .
at the beginning of the game when we do the prologue he ' s just kind of this anti - hero kind of guy . and very simply , concretely in the game , there are certain types of barriers that he has to open with contextual stuff . and then when he changes , then he begins tearing those things off and becomes much more brutal . so what we ' re trying to do is convey that evolution on the inside , but also convey it on the outside so that those game elements that are around him are evolving as he does .

these fundamental flaws are disappointing , because there are some interesting elements at play in homefront . the shift to an open - world setting was undoubtedly the right call for the series . the large zones you travel through contain plenty of character and open buildings to explore , and taking on the kpa forces demands novel hit - and - run tactics . customizing your guns in the heat of battle also works well , though being limited to two primary weapons meant i hardly touched a number of alternate guns . these features instill a sense of gameplay freedom that military shooters often lack ; i would have enjoyed them if it weren ' t for the perfect storm of other problems .

making his way to the train station he fights through more evolved versions of the infected and even more lasrian soldiers . he finds yargo as well as the creature he let out of the ship . after killing it and mutating again he gets yargo and attempts to use the booster , but yargo tries to say something . before yargo can get the words out , nemesis appears and forces them to split up . hayden attempts to take nemesis head on but he soon finds out he ' s still not strong enough to fight it . mezner arrives and offers hayden a chance to kill him , however mezner has grown powerful enough to mentally control technocyte infected victims , and begins to mentally overpower hayden . in a last ditch effort , hayden injects himself with the booster , which breaks mezner ' s control while simultaneously preventing further mutations . mezner tells him that he had the same booster and both he and hayden were being prepared for the technocyte ' s release . hayden passes out and both the nemesis and mezner leave him for dead .
the same is true for one of homefront : the revolution ' s biggest stumbling block : the framerate . despite a hefty day - one patch designed to improve performance , homefront ' s framerate frequently stutters , and on some occasions felt more like a slideshow than a video game . the best shooters aim for a solid 60 frames per second – homefront is lucky to claw its way to 30 , and rarely stays there for long . the performance issues don ' t just kill the already shaky gunplay – they also gave me headaches during prolonged play sessions , something i have never experienced in my many years playing shooters .
with a story penned by hollywood director and screenwriter john milius , the original homefront was an ambitious military shooter rendered mediocre by technical limitations , dated graphics , and a lack of distinguishing features . a few regime changes later – which include both the series ' developer and publisher – and homefront : the revolution returns with some novel additions including a unique take on the open - world format and on - the - fly weapon customization . unfortunately , developer dambuster studios failed to slay homefront ' s true enemy ; an unending litany of glitches , a . i . failings , and performance issues that do indeed differentiate homefront from other shooters , but for all the wrong reasons .
initially a windows version of dark sector was planned and was to be released on the same date as on consoles . but later it was dropped and there was no news on its release for a while . on january 19 , 2009 , some sites reported that a youtube video [ 1 ] was available , showing dark sector running on a pc . later it was confirmed that the game was indeed ported to windows and was on sale , though only in russia and the language was russian by default . after a while , hackers found ways to run the game in english . an english french version was added to steam on march 24 , 2009 . the pc version ' s multiplayer mode is only available via local area network play , as the game is a straight port of the console version with no extra code for internet connectivity .

in 1993 , burnt out on fantasy and science - fiction tropes , producer warren spector decided that he wanted to design a game set in the real world and started to draw up a design document for a game he called troubleshooter . unfortunately , spector was working for looking glass studios , which didn’t have the budget to fund the kind of game that spector dreamed of making .
in spite of deus ex’s long gestation and troubled studio culture , an impressive game started to take shape . the game was no longer set in the modern day , but something more inventive began to take shape . inspired by real - world conspiracy theories and shows and movies like the x - files and men in black , ion storm began to envision a sci - fi adventure that would wrap together cultural elements such as area 51 , cia drug trafficking , and even the john f . kennedy assassination .

of course , deus ex wasn’t the first shooter to break this mold . games like half - life had already experimented with telling meaningful stories in first - person . system shock has played with non - linear gameplay and environmental puzzle solving . and thief : the dark project had tested first - person stealth gameplay . deus ex , on the other hand , did all of this and more .

digital extremes has recently created a free - to - play title called warframe , and is a spiritual successor [ 2 ] to dark sector . this game borrows many names , similar models , and lore , but is set much farther in the future . the main protagonist faction is called the tenno , possibly named after dark sector ' s hayden tenno . in warframe , one may also acquire a glaive , which resembles hayden tenno ' s glaive . the lotus symbol is also a commonality between the two games . in it ' s first open beta anniversary , hayden ' s armor ( known ingame as excalibur proto - armor ) was made avaiable for 150 platinum for a week and in the second , hayden ' s glaive ( proto - glaive ingame ) was made avaiable for 50 platinum . it has never been confirmed by digital extremes that warframe is a direct continuation of dark sector , but rather a spiritual successor or
new beginning
.
all of homefront ' s shortcomings are compounded by a relentless barrage of glitches , which are more oppressive than the occupying kpa forces . you can ' t go 30 seconds without seeing something downright embarrassing . for starters , the game freezes for several seconds every time you complete an objective , acquire a new mission , or exit out of a weapons locker . getting stuck in the environment is an uncommon but ever - present threat , as is enemies spawning right in front of you .
viktor sudek is a minor agent captured by the lasrian hazmat team . he becomes infected and is promptly killed by hayden under orders to kill him by his superior .
developed by digital extremes . the game was released on march 25 , 2008 , in north america , march 27 , 2008 , in japan and april 4 , 2008 , in europe .
colossus is a powerful creature from the infected virus . it appears to be a large powerful entity which can climb walls and utterly level a building in seconds . hayden has a few encounters with this creature .

money ( rubles ) , ammo , weapon upgrades , and grenades can only be found in set locations , so they are impossible to farm . downed enemies drop their guns , though after his infection , hayden can only carry these weapons for a few seconds before they self - destruct . permanent weapons can be purchased and upgraded in black markets , one small for his off - hand use with the glaive ( replacing the pistol ) and one large , such as a shotgun or rifle .

dark sector was met with mixed reviews . many critics compared it to resident evil 4 and gears of war due to the similar style of play and story , yet it was praised for its visuals , originality of action and weapon - based gameplay .
nadia sudek ( voiced by julianne buescher ) is a woman who works along side mezner . hayden and nadia apparently know one another , but their connection isn ' t dwelled upon . she later turns out to be nemesis , a metallic creature with the same powerful abilities as hayden ' s .

as a shooter , deus ex took elements from other popular shooters of the day such as dark forces , system shock , and goldeneye 007 . but where most shooter developers were focused on improving visuals and working up large arsenals of weapons for players to cause havoc with , ion storm was hoping to break industry conventions and deliver a game that was part rpg , part first - person shooter , and part adventure game .

not everyone has time to train at the physiologically optimal time . however , for most people this is just an excuse . “not having time” to train actually means “i value training less than the thing i’ll do instead” . the things you make time for are the things you prioritize . in dutch , the word for priority is pronounced as the dutch equivalent of ‘prioritime’ . time equals priority .
it turns out that our tresillo rhythm is an example of a euclidean rhythm . we can generate it by plugging in the number of pulses and steps into bjorklund ' s algorithm :
swung pattern : here ' s the same rhythm we heard before , this time with quite a pronounced swing quantization value selected .

the second strategy to increase your performance when training at a suboptimal training time is to make sure you always train at that time . your body will adapt its circadian rhythm to the morning training stress and reduce the performance decrements at that time [ 1 , 2 ] .
you can find rhythm from external sounds just as you can find pitch . this can be found in conversation , maybe it’s a construction site where something’s being hammered . everything has rhythm , you’ve just got to listen out for it . so you can find contour , pitch , and rhythm from simple things around you . that’s the basis for a melody . endless ideas are at your fingertips ! what are you waiting for ?
in common time , which is four over four or four beats per measure , you ' ll intuitively count the beats out like . . .
we can define both a custom target rhythm as well . in addition , neither original _ rhythm nor target _ rhythm have to be fibonacci rhythms for the stretch algorithm to work ( although with this implementation they do both have to have the same number of pulses ) .
check out the contour on that . what i love about this melody is variation in rhythm , you’ve got this staggering arp - like a section , then a long note followed by the close of the melody in a different rhythm .
the peak performance time ( acrophase ) differs per activity . for example , swimming performance peaks a few hours later in the evening than most ground based activities . in general , endurance capacity seems to have a less pronounced circadian rhythm [ 1 , 2 ] . see the table below for an overview of the peak performance time for various studied performance measures [ 1 ] .
( we could actually try to estimate rhythmic patterns based on onsets and tempo , but that ' s for another time . )
remember earlier when i said you have to let a song breathe ? in addition to song sections changing feel and melodies switching around , you need to also vary the level of intensity throughout a song . by being a bit clever , you can achieve this in lots of different ways . one of my favorites is to drop into half - time or double time drums . it ' s rarely seen in hip - hop but you can even change tempo or time signatures . the most useful for this type of music is dropping out and bringing back different instruments . it can be as simple as dropping out high - hats for a section , dropping out the bass for a measure , or dropping out the snare .
too much variation in pitch and rhythm . consistency is key , keep it simple .
let ' s try that out with the same verse , going from an original rhythm with 8 steps ( i . e . in 4 / 4 meter ) to a target rhythm with 10 steps ( i . e . in 5 / 4 meter ) :
you might want to use a kick drum or a metronome when working on the rhythm for your melody . here’s how mine sounds so far :
what kind of magic is going on here ? why would the time of day affect how much muscle you gain after a workout ? it’s because of your circadian rhythm .

this is the chronological , or time , order of events in a reading passage .
in addition , the initially disappointing results of using naive time - stretch also indicate the importance of considering different perceptual levels of rhythm . we explored a solution using subdivision of pulses , but haven ' t dealt with perceptual levels of rhythm in a rigorous manner at all .

this is the part of the plot where the conflict begins to be worked out and tensions lessen .
we might classify it as a fibonacci rhythm , since every one of its pulse lengths is a fibonacci number . if we wanted to expand that rhythm along the fibonacci sequence , what would that look like ?

after identifying the scale you want to create your melody in , you need to come up with the rhythm for your melody . you see , melody isn’t just a succession of notes . it’s a rhythmic succession of notes . rhythm is extremely important in melody . don’t neglect it .
this melody has been stuck in my head for the past few months . it’s epic and memorable at the same time . you can hear it from 4 : 00 .
and as mentioned before , we ' ll use bjorklund ' s algorithm to generate the target pulse ' s rhythm . the trick here is to use the number of steps in the original pulse as the number of pulses for the target pulse rhythm ( hence the conversion to onsets earlier ) :
you can hear that the tresillo rhythm ' s pulses line up with the harmonic rhythm of
human nature
; generally , we want to pick rhythms and audio tracks that have at least some kind of musical relationship .
master house flipper points out 3 common mistakes to a rookie who is $ 3 . 5 million in the hole
. . . we can see that this makes sense , as we ' re time - stretching the first two pulses by the same amount , and then time - stretching the last pulse by a different amount .
this gets to the heart of the problem : when we time - stretch an entire pulse this way , we retain the original pulse ' s internal rhythm , essentially creating a polyrhythm in the target pulse ' s step ( i . e . metrical ) structure . even though we ' re time - stretching each pulse , we don ' t hear a difference because everything within the pulse gets time - stretched by the same amount .
basically what we want to do is : for each pulse , get the audio chunk that maps to that pulse , and time - stretch it based on our calculated pulse ratios .
below is the midi for the topline melody from this beautiful track . notice the difference in range and rhythm compared to insomnia . this here is an example of how simple melodies can be . look at it ! does it look complex ? no . it’s straightforward . the rhythm and variation make it memorable .
at this point it’s time for you to refer back to the contour line you drew ( or thought of ) and change around some notes until you find something that rings with you . don’t feel like you have to follow your contour line exactly . if something sounds out of place , fix it .
finally , i could see this stretch method being used in the context of a digital audio workstation ( daw ) , with both the symbolic meter data for a project and the raw audio signal for a track being modified . if embedded directly into a daw , this would open up possibilities for rapid experimentation of rhythm in a music production setting .
for many years , time out for rhythm remained the only columbia feature - length film with bit parts from the stooges unavailable in dvd format ( it never saw a vhs release ) . sony home entertainment finally gave the film a dvd release on august 7 , 2012 , as part of its manufactured - on - demand columbia choice collection series . on february 4 , 2014 , mill creek entertainment were due to re - release this film on dvd in their 6 movie set the three stooges collection .

similarly , plugging in different patterns for the original _ rhythm and target _ rhythm parameters yielded differing results , with some seeming more closely related to others . it ' s possible that there are some underlying rhythmic principles that more clearly explain how the relationship between the original and target rhythms affects how we perceive the stretched result .
however , with meticulous circadian rhythm control using supplementation , light therapy and consistent nutrition and training , you can shift your optimal training time greatly and you can achieve comparable results when training in the morning compared to training later in the day .

time out , the hit 1959 album by the dave brubeck quartet , was one of the first popular jazz works to explore meters beyond the traditional 4 / 4 and 3 / 4 . ( the first number , which is the top number of the time signature in sheet music , represents the number of beats in the measure , and the second number represents the note value that receives one beat . 4 / 4 means that there are four beats and a quarter note lasts for one beat , yielding four quarter notes in each measure . )

this is one of my all time favorites . the main melody is based in chords , and gives off a trance feel but acts as a pop song and does it damn well . as for the midi .
there are a ton of avenues to explore further , some of which we ' ve touched upon . for example , some of the most interesting results came from stretching a track so that the performance was converted from one meter to another ( e . g . 6 / 8 to 5 / 4 ) . sometimes this occurred as a happy coincidence of fibonacci stretch , but most of the time we had to pass in custom original _ rhythm and target _ rhythm parameters . i think it would be worthwhile to explore a version of the stretch method that could convert meter a to meter b without explicitly defining the rhythm patterns .

briefly : we ' re using ipython . display to do audio playback , librosa for the bulk of the audio processing and manipulation ( namely time - stretching ) , numpy to represent data , and matplotlib to plot the data .
( note that while we ' re expanding our original rhythm along the fibonacci sequence , this actually corresponds to a contraction when time - stretching . this is because we want to maintain the original tempo , so we ' re trying to fit more steps into the same timespan . )
now that the rhythm is nailed , it’s time to start sketching the outline of the melody . this is where you have to think ! i like to draw one on paper , but you can just paint a mental image in your head if you want to save the trees .
• your circadian rhythm is a 24 hour cycle of biological activity set by your internal clock . your sleep - wake cycle is one of many systems influenced by your circadian rhythm . • your hormonal milieu , gene expression and core body temperature have a circadian rhythm . together , they result in peak physical condition to train and recover in the late afternoon to early evening for most individuals . • the best time to work out is generally between 14 : 30 and 20 : 30 h if you have a regular sleep - wake cycle . • you can determine the optimal time to train by monitoring your maximum resting heart rate and training performance . some people do just fine training in the morning . • if you can’t train when your body is primed to do so , supplement with caffeine pre - workout and schedule your workouts when you can always train . getting in your workouts in the first place is of course always more important than when you do them .

even swing values won ' t give you a natural sense of timing , though . just as no musician can play every single note in a perfectly straight rhythm , they ' re no more likely to be able to play every note of a swung rhythmic pattern locked to a groove , either . natural timing variations in performance are a huge part of what makes rhythm sound natural , and it ' s worth bearing this in mind if you want to build grooves that sound less machine - like . the temptation when programming beats and even basslines is to input notes via step - time , or to immediately reach for quantization to eradicate any sense of natural timing . however , by recording in real time and holding back on ironing out timing inadequacies , you can bring a much more personal sense of groove to your tracks .

blue rondo a la turk
has a time signature of 9 / 8 . in 9 / 8 time , the nine eighth notes are usually divided into three groups of three , with the stress pattern one two three one two three one two three , but
blue rondo
has the pattern one two one two one two one two three . it even gets a bit more complicated : for most of the piece , there are three measures of the unusual 9 / 8 rhythm followed by one measure of the usual groups of three .
based on the circadian rhythm of your hormones , gene expression and your core body temperature , the best time to schedule your training sessions is between 14 : 30 and 20 : 30 h if you have a normal biorhythm and sleep during the night from roughly 12 : 00 – 08 : 00 h .
for those with an irregular sleep - wake cycle ( read : students ) , it’s preferable to wait at least 6 hours after awakening before training . the optimal training time will then be closer to 20 : 30 h than 14 : 30 h .
justin london is a professor of music at carleton college in minnesota who specializes in music perception and cognition , particularly with respect to musical meter . he says that brubeck actually inspired much of his research into rhythm and meter .
i knew that it had a visceral , toe - tapping sense of beat and rhythm ,
he says ,
but according to most theories of rhythm and meter developed in recent decades , it couldn ' t , given its uneven beat structure .

the rhythm section of a traditional rock & roll band refers not only to the drummer but to the relationship between drums , bass and often rhythm guitar . these instruments are responsible for providing the feel or groove of a track ' s rhythm , meaning that players need to add to the same groove , rather than create a series of different rhythmic performances that fight each other . this became particularly true when disco first gained popularity ; if you listen to performances of live disco bands like nile rodgers ' legendary chic , you ' ll hear how drums , bass and guitar swing and groove together .

we might also want to explore using onset detection to improve the actual time - stretching process . instead of choosing stretch regions purely based on where they fall in relation to the symbolic rhythm parameters , we could define regions in accordance with the sample indices of detected onsets as well , which could yield more natural sounding output .

when you start a development , it ' s really important that you keep that rhythm going through the project to complete it .

note that both the music notation and the array are symbolic representations of the rhythm ; the rhythm is abstracted so that there is no information about tempo , dynamics , timbre , or other musical information . all we have is the temporal relationship between each note in the sequence ( as well as the base assumption that the notes are evenly spaced ) .

never ever have we ever felt so low ( so low ) for we’ve heard the next rhythm of the night will be the last . without it , will anything ever make us feel whole again ? we all know there ain’t no party like an s club party . c’est la vie .
when experimenting with at what time your performance is optimal , you can use your heart rate as a guideline . resting heart rate and core body temperature are strongly correlated . therefore , the time of day when your resting heart rate peaks is often the best time to train . unfortunately , simple oral or insulated axilla ( under the armpit ) temperature readings are too noisy to measure your circadian rhythm [ 2 ] . the scientific gold standard is sticking a thermometer up your ass , but that’s probably reserved for the real die - hards . as some researchers put it , “ core temperature is often measured using a rectal probe , a thermistor inserted 10 to 12 cm [ 4 to 5 inches ] past the anal sphincter . participants are not always comfortable with this site [ … ] ” .
a : stomp sets aside a limited number of exclusive seats for each performance , which are considered to have the best views of the house . this is known as the rhythm & sounds zone because these seats are close enough to the performance , that you can feel the rhythms from your seats .
what appealed to you about synthesizers and new wave ? for me , new wave music was a blend of progressive rock and disco . i grew up on bands like genesis and pink floyd and rick wakeman . i studied piano . i was front and centre for the disco movement . for me , new wave was prog music with a disco backbeat .
there are of course others , but i’ll exclude them for sake of popularity and use ( especially in edm ) .
a : great news ! there is a full length filmed version of the stage production available for purchase on dvd .

man , the pro ' s beats are so simple . i can do that in a heartbeat .
and you ' ve been pumping out simple beats since , because you mistook their simple orchestration for a simple arrangement . they are doing things with three sounds that you couldn ' t do with 15 , and that ' s why they are selling exclusives for $ 100 , 000 a pop and you ' re leasing your tracks off of soundclick for $ 1 . 00 per download .
we are talking about rap or r & b for the most part here , i ' m assuming . that means there ' s a large emphasis on the drums and the pattern in which they thump out their rhythm . the most boring thing you can do is use all down beats . it ' s the number one reason your beats are boring . when you study music theory , you ' ll learn about something you can already feel , which is strong beats and weak beats .
we dig deeper . that is , we can treat each pulse as a rhythm of its own , and subdivide it accordingly , since each pulse is comprised of multiple steps after all .
not many people think about when the best time to train is . even fewer have the discipline to schedule their training sessions when they are biologically primed for maximum performance . it’s a shame to put in countless hours in the gym at a time when your body is not in top gear and can’t recover optimally from the training . by following this guide you can optimize your training schedule and fast - track your gains . all without training more or changing your diet .
a : premium ticket holders receive admission into the exclusive rhythm & sounds zone . these seats are close enough to the stage for greater potential to interact with the cast . in these seats , you get to experience nyc ' s landmark off - broadway classic , stomp , from the greatest views in the house .
the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
as you can hear , the modified track ' s rhythm is in line with the clicks , and sounds noticeably different from the original song . this is a pretty good place to end up !
this isn’t a theory article , but a basic understanding of music theory will make it easier to follow along . check out the tl ; dr guide to music theory if you need a primer .
one solution to this imperceptibility is to allow for the length of the modified measure to change as well . for example , a 2 - second measure with 8 steps ( 4 steps / second ) could be stretched into a 24 - second measure with 144 steps ( 6 steps / second ) . the longer time span might yield more interesting results , but it might also obscure the relationship between the modified track and the original track .
love , love , love this movie ! great for kids and adults . i would highly recommend as a good family movie .
straight beats and bass : this is worth bearing in mind if you ' re looking to bring swing to your productions . in this example , you can hear a programmed beat pattern playing against a bassline . for now , both parts are straight , using 1 / 16 note quantization to keep everything in strict time .
now men without hats are at last coming to australia , as part of nostalgia concert totally ’80s . doroschuk will share the stage with such ageing stars as limahl , martika , katrina and the waves , berlin , stacey q and paul lukakis , with australian acts real life and wa wa nee joining the bill . time out spoke to him on the phone to his home on vancouver island .
there are some limitations to the app , most prominent of which is its restriction to monophonic melodies ( one note at a time ) , meaning that harmonies are out of the question . the accuracy of the software also remains to be seen and the analysis of the recordings is performed in the cloud , meaning that you ' ll need a decent internet connection to take advantage of the app .
where can he go ? that’s one question that haunts this elusive and gentle film . another is : how did he get here ? perhaps that’s what he’s trying to figure out when he stares off into space . an adult daughter ( jena malone ) , who works in a bar , serves as a reminder — sometimes agonizing , sometimes consoling — of a different life , when george had a job , a family and a home . as the movie’s title suggests , he has lost track of the chronology that connects that past and his uprooted present . while “time out of mind” traces a few months in his life , from winter to spring , you can’t always tell how much time has passed from one scene to the next . a few minutes ? a week ? what’s the difference ?
with our knowledge of the song ' s tempo , beats , and measures , we can start bringing our symbolic rhythms into audio - land . again , let ' s work with our trusty tresillo rhythm :
pad glue : it ' s also interesting to note that your brain latches on to rhythm much more when it ' s exposed patterns like these . as our track is currently only using short , spiky percussive sounds , we ' re forced to focus on their timing , whereas if we add a sustained musical layer on top , our ear will be drawn away from rhythm alone . you can hear that here .
by the time you consider arrangement , you ' ve chosen your instrumentation already . so the question becomes not which instruments to use , but when to use them . you can ' t just start smashing them all at the same time or you ' ll just have a mess . if they all play , in unison , the same lead melody the singer is singing , then you don ' t have a song . you need to choose what purpose each instrument serves , such as harmonizing the lead melody , supporting it ' s rhythm , or bringing in the hype only in the chorus , etc .
the optimal time of day to train is not usually something that people think about , yet there is a science to optimizing your training times . by carefully planning your training schedule in accordance with your circadian rhythm , you will be stronger , faster and more powerful . after the training , you will gain more muscle . you will also increase your flexibility , reduce your chance of injuries and possibly sleep better .
yogabar is a new concept by the founder of fitness first and fit n fast that brings together food , fashion and fitness in one location . time out tried the yoga barre class , which was chock - a - block on friday lunchtime . we took our position at the ballet barre , picked up a set of hand weights as instructed and got straight into pulsing plié positions . the 45 - minute class doesn’t waste time with stretching or introductions – everyone is here to sweat as efficiently as possible before 4pm drinks at the office . it’s not for yoga or ballet purists , as the class borrows from both disciplines but at hard - core speed and to a soundtrack that includes justin bieber and calvin harris . using the pink hand weights and an inflatable ball , we adopted ballet’s first and second position to work through leg and arm repetitions – holding the barre for stability .
bondi junction studio soul flow yoga has weekly classes in yoga , art and creativity that you can attend individually for $ 45 , or book in a package for $ 110 . kundalini yoga teacher eilish bouchier leads an eight class series in awakening your creativity practicing kundalini yoga and mediation techniques . the studio also runs vinyassa and yin yoga , plus naam – a synthesis of yogic asana ( movement ) , mudra ( hand postures ) , breath , rhythm , stretching , acupressure and vocal vibration .
listening to the rendered track in part 4 . 5 , you can hear that aside from the beginning of each measure and pulse , the musical onsets in the modified track don ' t really line up with the target rhythm ' s clicks at all . thus , without the clicks , we have no way to identify the target rhythm , even though that ' s what we were using as the basis of our stretch method !
it’s one of those songs everyone knows even if they don’t know men without hats . it’s a viral thing . yeah , it’s weird . i have a lot of new fans from glee . but my son , who is a teenager now , he found out who i was when he was about seven or eight , and he found out because crazy frog did ‘safety dance’ . all of a sudden he was a celebrity at school , when his friends found out his father wrote the crazy frog song . that’s been the greatest thing : our old fans show up at our shows with their families , and everybody’s digging it . it’s really cool .
some people like having a visual counter - part to audio . i find looking at photos and scenery , even just walking outside can trigger ideas for melodies . for example , you could extract a melody contour from an object in an image ( like i’ve done here ) .

we can also work with source audio in other meters . for example , frank ocean ' s
pink + white
is in 6 / 8 . here i ' ve stretched it into 4 / 4 using the rhythm of the bassline , but you can uncomment the other supplied parameters ( or supply your own ! ) to hear how they sound as well :
torres suggests that they build the remaining structures at a fixed cost .
that way we can lower the asking price and get these things moving ,
he reasons .
if we shave time off construction , we shave dollars off the budget , we lower the ask and we put it on the market for a price that will sell .

i ' ve had a feeling for the last ten years or so maybe , that i ' m such a stupid loser of an idiot .
tim scheett performed a study in bodybuilders on the best time to work out . half of the participants trained before 10 am in the morning , the other half after 6 pm in the evening . while the results never got published outside of the 2005 nsca conference and didn’t reach statistical significance because of having only 16 participants in the study , look at the data below : the evening training group had much more favorable body composition changes .

one of my favourite albums as a kid in the 1980s was rhythm of youth , the debut album by men without hats . on receiving the album on vinyl for christmas one year and perusing the sleeve , i was surprised to learn that the band were canadian : i’d assumed they were part of the british new wave movement , which by then had already mutated into new romanticism .
note that the tresillo rhythm ' s pulse lengths all fall along the fibonacci sequence . this allows us do some pretty fun things , as we ' ll see in a bit . but first let ' s take a step back .
. . . which we can conveniently store as a list in python . actually , this is a good time to start diving directly into code . first , let ' s import all the python libraries we need :
i had to choose this one , i just did . insomnia is one of my favorite dance tracks of all time and i’m sure many others would agree with me when i say it’s catchy . let’s take a listen…
if you choose to go sparse , you have to keep things interesting by using unique sounds . pharell chose to use silly mouth sounds mixed with synths to a strange juxtaposition . but it worked . another trick is to keep your beat and rhythm the same , but change instruments , such as swapping out snares during the chorus or switching kicks halfway through a verse . the main trick to making full or sparse beats work has to do with the following section on arrangement .
two of the funnest parts of making beats is creating custom fills for the ends of sections and after you receive the vocals back from the rapper or singer . in regards to custom fills pre - vocals , go ahead and loop your song out with consistent rhythms that are predictable and repetitive . this gives the user something to lock into so they can focus on the vocals and lyrics . with familiarity you risk being boring for being memorable , but thankfully it opens up a chance to create even more interesting
ear candy
with fills .
to properly map the relationship between a rhythmic sequence and an audio representation of a piece of music , we ' ll have to do some feature extraction , that is , teasing out specific attributes of the music by analyzing the audio signal .
b ) we ' re adjusting an equally - spaced rhythm ( e . g . [ 1 1 1 ] ) to one that ' s not necessarily equally - spaced ( e . g . [ 1 0 1 0 1 ] )
of course , novelty is in the ear of the beholder . langham says that brubeck
was a very worldly person . within his travels he would go and hear other musicians and hear what they were doing , and he would incorporate that into his music .
in the case of
blue rondo a la turk ,
brubeck picked up the rhythm from street musicians in turkey .
it seemed very natural to them to be playing in this rhythm ,
langham says .
this rosebery studio is used for dance classes , such as hollaback , yoga and other physical disciplines such as trapeze , tissu , acrobatics and kids’ circus .

sometimes people break the mold . you have guys like mr . sche in memphis banging out heaters all day while sequencing on fruity loops and still using some default sounds , landing beats for guys like 8 ball and al kapone . you know why his beats still bang ? because he knows music theory . if anything is going to set you apart , it ' s this . yes , it sucks at first . you ' ll literally have to bust out a text book or read online and treat it like school . you ' ll have to study and do homework . but it ' s an investment into your business so get it done .
inspiration for this came initially from vijay iyer ' s article on fibonacci numbers and musical rhythm as well as his trio ' s renditions of
mystic brew
and
human nature
; we ' ll use original version of the latter as an example throughout . we ' ll also touch upon godfried toussaint ' s work on euclidean rhythms and bjorklund ' s algorithm , both of which are intimately related .
there ' s a range of dramatic conventions ( techniques ) that have been used to create dramatic effects in plays and spectacles for centuries . among these are :
in the hustle and bustle of kings cross is a hideaway yoga studio that specialises in hot yoga and pilates with three heated studios . one studio is warmed to 21 degrees , one to 27 degrees , and the other to 37 degrees . time out tried the hot mat pilates class , which focuses on the core for 50 minutes . our class was in the 27 - degree room , which doesn’t sound warm but once we began 100 pulses in the box position we were sweating buckets . there are approximately 40 mats in each studio , and so there is lots of space to feel comfortable and have your own space to stretch . our classroom is mirrored on one side , with clear views of the city out of an expansive window at the end of the room . heating the rooms isn’t just a perk for winter , one hot yoga hold their classes at human body temperature to maximise use of muscles and to burn fat . classes taken in their hottest room are at a much slower pace in order to get deep stretches in a vinyasa yoga session .
for the performer , unusual rhythms can be a challenge .
they feel very natural to me ,
langham says ,
but i grew up listening to dave ' s music !
joking aside , he says that the odd time signatures
don ' t allow you to play the normal riffs and ideas that you ' re so used to and comfortable doing when you ' re playing in a standard time signature .
he says that this disruption of the status quo can help musicians grow . london says that in order for the ensemble to synchronize in difficult meters , they have to use different strategies from what they usually do . they need to be more aware of the larger measure - to - measure structure of the piece , rather than just the shorter sections of the work .
