Secara garis besar penyajian Kala adalah memadukan instrumen musik Barat dan etnis yang sebagian besar instrumen terdiri dari instrumen perkusi seperti marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, chime, drumset, bonang Sunda, cetik, rebana serta ditambah dengan instrumen melodis seperti akodion, biola, gambus, dan electric bass. Motif dan teknik permainan merupakan salah satu penggambaran dari ketiga zaman tersebut yang menghasilkan suasana liar, agamis, dan modernisasi dan bernuansa etnis Lampung dan Melayu.Kata kunci: Kala/waktu, sejarah Lampung.ABSTRACTThe Kala Music Composition. This composition is a representation of a human mindset change which is alwaysmoving forward from time to time. Kala which means time is a refl ection of a history starting from when the history andthe civilization were formed and developed in the past. Then, the time development is divided into a three-part time(prehistory, history, modern) to describe the changes that may occur at any time, especially in the province of Lampung.Basically, the presentation of Kala is combining the western and ethnic musical instruments that most of the them consistof percussion instruments such as marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, chime, drum set, bonang Sunda, cetik, tambourines, and melodic instruments such as accordion, violin, harp, and electric bass. The motive and technique of the performance is one of the three depictions of the era that produces the wild and religious atmosphere, modernization, and that is nuanced by Lampung and Malay ethnics.Keywords: Kala /time, history of Lampung

For percussionists, rhythm notation represents more than a mere temporal sequence of music; it also assists the selection and execution of the appropriate technique. This musical execution is often dependent on the percussion instrument, although it is safe to argue that the movement sequence when sounding an instrument is independent of its size and proportions. Starting from the first beats, it is as crucial to learn and master movement routines as it is to understand and feel the time between notes, since these together enable one to play out rhythm notation precisely and internalise the correct motor processes. Applying the adequate movement sequences during the learning process consciously could result in substantial self-control abilities, which can also be utilised during practice. In the past centuries, the style of percussionists’ performance has transformed substantially due to the evolution of instruments and mallets, as well as performers’ efforts towards faster tempos. In this study, a brief overview on the history of percussion instruments is followed by the presentation of the technical evolution and milestones of how snare drums and other drums are played. When practicing percussion instruments, we must bear in mind the vast contribution of percussionists from bygone centuries, who laid the foundations of modern-day techniques either in wars or for others’ entertainment. Keywords: tabor, snare drum, traditional grip, rudimental

Abstract The field of music therapy commonly uses percussion instruments. To some degree, the drum set has been included in the literature. Percussion training, and in this case drum set training, specific to music therapy practice have likely lagged behind the instruments’ uses in the field, potentially resulting in limitations to effective practice. Andragogically speaking, the field benefits from resources that take into account the needs of students and clinicians, while also addressing training program challenges (such as time and accessibility of drum sets). The purpose of this article is to provide an approach to learning the drum set that promotes relevant use and relevant play, without necessarily always needing to be at a drum set to practice. The author first situates the history of the drum set and discusses its common set up and use. Through the use of body percussion, vocalizing/singing, and other processes, the author proposes a way to promote a stronger understanding of how to use the drum set for accompaniment, recreating, composing, and improvising. The author breaks down and scaffolds technical drum set tasks, but then promotes their integration. Visuals and video resources are included. The author concludes with implications for practice, training, and research.

abstract Right lateral slippage on the Hayward fault has faken place in the Irvington and Niles districts of Fremont since the well known 1868 Hayward earthquake which produced surface ruptures from San Leandro to Warm Springs. This post-1868 movement has been occurring without being identified with strong earthquakes. Structures and railroads crossing the Hayward fault in the area under study date back to 1866. Fault slippage can be observed at ten separate locations along the strike of the Hayward fault in the Irvington-Niles districts of Fremont, California. One location predates the 1868 earthquake. There is no evidence for parallel lines of fault slippage within the approximately 200-foot wide fault zone. The slippage appears to have occurred within a 10-foot wide band parallel to the strike of the fault. Structures and railroads built at different times during the past 100 years give a time-history of the slippage. The slippage, if any, between 1868 and 1909 is unknown. From 1909 until as late as 1949 or early 1950, there was no observed fault slippage. Approximately one-half foot of slippage occurred between about 1949 or early 1950 and about 1957, and no measurable slippage since 1957.

The past tense can only be studied through the present. For the study of the past, one can draw conclusions about past events by taking the present objects or present-day memoirs as residuals of the past. The arguments on which conclusions are drawn are based on observation of current things, events and relationships. "1Since time immemorial, humans have been trying to discover the past. With the development of knowledge, humans started searching for evidence related to the knowledge of the past and facts were proved with the appropriate evidence. Historians also have to use various evidence for factual presentation of knowledge related to the past. Archaeological material has become the mainstay of scientific and factual study of the history of the past. The major source of archaeological material is human creativity and artistic expression. Whose utilitarian form comes to us in the form of man-made pottery. Pots are used by historians as part time and society as special. भूत काल का अध्ययन केवल वर्तमान के माध्यम से ही किया जा सकता है। बीते हुए समय के अध्ययन के लिये वर्तमान वस्तुओं अथवा वर्तमान में विद्यमान संस्मरणों को भूतकाल के अवषेषों के रुप में लेकर उनसे भूतकाल की धटनाओं के बारे में निष्कर्ष निकाला जा सकता है। वे तर्क जिनके आधार पर निष्कर्ष निकाले जाते वे वर्तमान वस्तुओं, घटनाओं तथा सम्बन्धों के अवलोकन पर आधारित होते हैं।’’1अनादि काल से मानव अतीत की खोज के लिए प्रयत्नषील रहा है।़ ज्ञान के विकास के साथ मानव ने अतीत के ज्ञान सम्बधीं साक्ष्य खोजने प्रारम्भ किये और उपयुक्त साक्ष्यों से तथ्य प्रमाणित किये जाने लगे। इतिहासकार को भी अतीत सम्बंधी ज्ञान की तथ्यात्मक प्रस्तुति के लिये विभिन्न साक्ष्यों का प्रयोग करना पड़ता है। पुरातात्विक सामग्री अतीत के इतिहास के वैज्ञानिक एवं तथ्यपूर्ण अध्ययन का प्रमुख आधार बन गई है। पुरातात्विक सामग्री का प्रमुख स्त्रोत मानव की सृजनात्मकता और कलात्मक अभिव्यक्ति है। जिसका उपयोगितावादी स्वरुप मानव द्वारा निर्मित मृद्भांड के रुप में हमारे सामने आता है। मृद्भांडों को, इतिहासकार काल विषेष तथा समाज विषेष के रुप में प्रयोग करते हैं।


scholarly journals The historical parallels between today's events in the Donbass and the pages of its past of hundred years ago, when this region was in the center of a fierce struggle between different political forces, social strata, and hostile groups are analyzed in this article. The main attention is focused on the investigation of attempts to create an anti-Ukrainian identity in the Donbass based on the use of prepared facts of events related to the history of the creation and short-term existence of the Donetsk-Kryvyi Rih Soviet Republic. It was determined that during almost the entire period of Ukraine’s independence in the Donbas, with the active participation of the Kremlin, Soviet and imperial interpretations of history were spread, ideas of a special regional identity were formed, and the ideological basis of anti-Ukrainian insinuations was created. At the same time, history was used as a kind of propaganda, and manipulation of the past. It was one of the main strategies of anti-Ukrainian forces in the Donbass. Stereotypes were instilled that this region is the territory of the formation of "novoros", "the people of Donbass", who have their own mentality and even traditions of statehood, unrelated to the history of Ukraine. All this became the ideological basis of the bloody events associated with the attempt to create in 2014 the so-called "people’s republics" in the territory of Donbass. Pseudo-referendums were held in this region, pseudo-independent republics headed by puppet governments, fully controlled by the Kremlin, were proclaimed like a hundred years ago, in order to restore imperial domination in Ukraine, according to the experience of the Bolsheviks. On the example of historical parallels of personal destinies of people who are forced one way or another to lead regional separatist movements or become puppets in the hands of external puppeteers by the revolutionary events of both a hundred years ago and today. It is reminded of the inadmissibility of ignoring the laws of historical development.

This article reviews painting and graphics of Adyghe artists, which plotlines and images resemble musical instruments, musicians, and in a certain way, music itself. The author assumes that the entire heritage in this area can be divided into three groups. The first group contains the artworks that are perceived as historical documents testifying to the presence or absence of certain types of musical instruments, ways of playing those, dances, dance positions, moves, etc.; this also includes paintings with ethnographically precise reproduction of the past or present reality, which depicts music and motions. The second group contains the portraits of prominent musicians who significantly contributed to the history of regional culture. The third group is comprised of the musical instruments and dance, which visualize something secret behind the traditional things. Each group has a special technique and means of visualization of music and musical instruments. The novelty of this research lies in examination of the canvases of Adyghe painters preserved in the funds of the North Caucasus branch of the State Museum of Oriental Art (Maykop), and are virtually unknown to the general audience; in articulation of the topic aimed at examination of means of visualization of music, musical instruments and musicians in painting and graphics; in the proposed non-homogeneous classification of painting heritage related to music, musical instruments and musicians, which can be implicated to any other regional culture; in determination of the role of this type of cultural heritage for future generation. It is stated that painting and graphics exhibited in museums are not perceives so much the past as the present, which is included in the cultural and emotional-psychological life of modernity.

General properties of step heat waves are explained using the "response plane" which has axes of final enthalpy and absorbed power. As examples of heat waves we discuss the time development of ionizing radiation fronts in interstellar H II clouds, compare the description of chemical reactions in the response plane and the pv diagram, determine the operation conditions of steady fusion reactions, explain the time history of decaying laser sparks, and survey possibilities of thermonuclear fusion with lasers. All such heat waves exhibit similar fluid behavior since these phenomena occur due to the absorption of some energy into the ambient medium.

It is generally accepted that history is an element of culture and the historian a member of society, thus, in Croce's aphorism, that the only true history is contemporary history. It follows from this that when there occur great changes in the contemporary scene, there must also be great changes in historiography, that the vision not merely of the present but also of the past must change.
