This essay presents the methodologies, meanings and challenges in the development of the “Dromology of Orbital Bodies”, Hugo Paquete project, started between 2019-2020 and still ongoing. The project aims to track military and commercial satellites, by converting their movement information in real time by a process of data sonification received from the hacked satellites. Therefore, this essay presents the technical challenges in the project building, as well some of the obtained sonic results. Also is presented the dimension of conceptual meanings associated with the project from a philosophical and critical point of view, in a combination of conceptual approach and technical exploration where concepts such as chronoscopic time, cyberpunk, gray ecology and acoustemology are related as conceptual frames, of a time where the sound happens mediated by technology. The presented concepts are influences in the production, composition and musical performance processes that I develop with special interest in systems theory and where unpredictability operates alongside real-time relationships. In this experimentation I use sound granularization and compositional aesthetic techniques historically centered in a noise and micro post-digital rhythm aesthetics.

In the past few years, radiotherapy (RT) has experienced a major technological innovation with the development of hybrid machines combining magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and linear accelerators. This new technology for MR-guided cancer treatment has the potential to revolutionize the field of adaptive RT due to the opportunity to provide high-resolution, real-time MR imaging before and during treatment application. However, from a technical point of view, several challenges remain which need to be tackled to ensure safe and robust real-time adaptive MR-guided RT delivery. In this manuscript, several technical challenges to MR-guided RT are discussed. Starting with magnetic field strength tradeoffs, the potential and limitations for purely MR-based RT workflows are discussed. Furthermore, the current status of real-time 3D MR imaging and its potential for real-time RT are summarized. Finally, the potential of quantitative MR imaging for future biological RT adaptation is highlighted.

A control simulation model, called LOCUS, is used to investigate the effects of spatially distributed rain and the possibilities to benefit from this phenomenon by means of real time control. The study is undertaken for a catchment in Copenhagen, where rainfall is measured with a network of 8 rain gauges. Simulation of a single rain event, which is assumed to be homogeneous, i.e. using one rain gauge for the whole catchment, leads to large over- and underestimates of the systems output variables. Therefore, when analyzing a single event the highest possible degree of rainfall information may be desired. Time-series simulations are performed for both an uncontrolled and a controlled system. It is shown that from a statistical point of view, rainfall distribution is NOT significant concerning the probability of occurrence of an overflow. The main contributing factor to the potential of real time control, concerning minimizing overflows, is to be found in the system itself, i.e. the distribution of available storage and discharge capacity. When other operational objectives are involved, e.g., to minimize peak flows to the treatment plant, rainfall distribution may be an important factor.

This film makes three observations on the filming of tactility and movement in order to adequately convey tacit knowledge in embodied ways. The author, Wuon-Gean Ho, studied the craft of traditional woodblock printmaking in Japan, and demonstrates planning, carving and printing of a woodblock print. The first observation is that an alteration of the time-base of the film and subsequent manipulation of the soundscape can provide embodied affects. Secondly the film refers to the effect of mirror-touch-synaesthesia with close macro shots and intimate angles. Thirdly, the use of a birds’ eye point of view, with the hands of the artist in the same anatomical position as the viewers’ hands, enables the gaze of the viewer to mimic that of the maker, conveying haptic knowledge through poetic means.The voiceover to the film is made with deliberate reference to ASMR videos that engender a sense of intimacy. The non-objectivity of the recording process is commented upon. The conclusion is that constructed scenarios might convey more than real-time truthful indexical footage.

<div class="WordSection1"><p align="center"><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p><em>Th</em><em>e idea of regulating of governor’s authority as representative of central government to the regency/ town government after the amendment of 1945 constitution is aimed at answering two legal problems. They are: (1) How is the regulation of the authority of governor as representative of central government after the amendment of 1945 constitution, (2) How is the idea governor as the representative of government. In order to answer such a questions the research   conducted by using legal/normative research. The approach that used is statue approach and conceptual approach. The regulating of governor’s authority as representative of central government as stipulated in Art. 32 of Act No.32 year of 2004 do not have firm validity in 1945 Constitution. Such the authority of governor is conducted as the implementation of principle of de-concentration, while such a principle does not clearly formulated in 1945 constitution. Besides it does not have constitution’s validity, the regulating of governor’s authority in Act No.32, 2004 does not have clear concept since on one hand such authority is attribution, an on one hand that authority is a delegation and even in practice it is a mandate. According of Unitary state’s point of view the authority of governor as direct representative of central government  after the amendment of 1945 constitution should be in delegation form. Therefore it is not directly enumerated in Act regarding the Local government (attribution).The president that would transfer that authority in government regulation (pp). The delegation of authority to the governor should cover the affair of general government in province, so it is not just limited to a certain affair.Besides in conducting the authority, the governor as representative of central government needs certain organ that assist the governor in performing his authority and as the organ of central government.</em></p><p><strong><em>Key word: </em></strong><em>The idea, governor’s authority, government’s representat, unitary state.</em></p><p align="center"><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Gagasan penaturan kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah terhadap kabupaten/ kota setelah perubahan Undang-Undang Dasar 1945 bertujuan menjawab 2(dua) problem hukum, yakni :   (1) Bagaimana pengaturan kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah setelah perubahan UUD 1945, dan (2) Bagaimana gagasan kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah. Untuk menemukan jawaban pertanyaan yang muncul dilakukan penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan (<em>statute approach</em>) dan pendekatan konseptual (<em>conceptual approach</em>). Pengaturan kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah dalam Pasal 38 UU No. 32/2004 tidak memiliki validasi yang tegas dalam UUD 1945.Kewenangan gubernur tersebut dilakukan dalam rangka pelaksanaan asas dekonsentrasi, sementara asas dekonsentrasi tidak dirumuskan secara tegas dalam UUD 1945.Selain tidak memiliki validasi konsitusi, pengaturan kewenangan gubernur dalam UU No. 32/2004 tidak jelas konsepnya karena satu sisi kewenangan tersebut berupa atribusi, pada bagian lain berupa delegasi dan bahkan dalam praktek berupa mandat. Menurut sudut pandang sistem negara kesatuan (<em>unitary state</em>) kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah langsung setelah perubahan UUD 1945 haruslah berupa delegasi kewenangan.Jadi tidak ditegaskan (dirinci) langsung dalam UU mengenai pemerintahan daerah (atribusi). Presiden yang akan melimpahkan kewenangan tersebut nantinya dalam Peraturan Pemerintah. Pelimpahan kewenangan kepada gubernur tersebut ruanglingkupnya haruslah mencakup urusan pemerintahan umum di provinsi jadi tidak dibatasi pada urusan tertentu saja.Selain itu dalam menjalankan kewenangan gubernur sebagai wakil pemerintah perlu organ tertentu yang membatu gubernur dalam menjalankan kewenangannya dan merupakan organ pemerintah.</p><p><strong>Key word: </strong>Gagasan<strong>, </strong>Kewenangan Gubernur, Wakil Pemerintah, Negara Kesatuan.</p></div>

A general teaching hospital provides an excellent setting for the teaching of psychiatric residents. The Canadian model for a teaching network, including general and specialty hospitals, allows for special interests to develop within given hospitals. A department of psychiatry which chooses the teaching of psychotherapy as a special interest is examined. The teaching occurs in all areas of the department (ambulatory, inpatient, consultation-liaison) and is backed up by appropriate seminars. Individual supervision provides the backbone of the teaching program. The special interest exists within a department which must answer all of the psychiatric needs of a general hospital population. From the university point of view, the network is strengthened by the existence of various areas of concentrated interest within various component units of the network.

The news that Halsey Stevens, an American University professor, was preparing a book on Bartók, aroused keen interest among sympathisers with the Hungarian composer, and publication-date was impatiently awaited. The author received very generous assistance from every quarter: a research grant from his university, and direct and indirect material information from a large number of people most of whose help is duly acknowledged in the preface. Why was it, then, that the book did not come up to expectations? The answer lies, partly, in Prof. Stevens's self-imposed limitations. The title says: “The Life and Music of Béla Bartók”, and Prof. Stevens seems to be careful to confine himself, almost literally, to the description of the two points his title indicates. His aims are more clearly defined in the foreword, where he says: “This book is concerned primarily with Bartók's music, approached from both the analytical and the critical point of view” (though the latter point of view is rather tentatively approached), and in a passage later on in the book: “… it has nowhere been the intention in this book to examine Bartók's work from the standpoint of its motivations, physical, psychological, or otherwise …” (p.250). I submit that this approach, though conducive of valuable information, is essentially a wrong one to adopt.
