What is jazz?

Jazz is the name of a certain type of popular music. Originally it was American Negro music, but it has evolved into a mix of several different kinds of music from many parts of the world. One of the main characteristics of jazz is its rhythm. The jazz melody combines elements of African and European music, but its harmony comes mainly from Europe. Another characteristic feature of jazz is improvisation. This means creating something impromptu, under the influence of a momentary mood. Most jazz is played this way. Music is created as the performer plays. Jazz has changed and evolved over the years, but it has retained its core qualities.

One of the genres of music that contributed to the development of jazz was the blues. Jazz music is a third of the blues. Blues are more than half of the popular works of rock and roll. Even some American country and western music is written in blues form. The main contribution to the development of jazz was made by musicians from New Orleans. New Orleans jazz, sometimes referred to as Dixieland, combines the deep emotionality of blues and Negro religious song, as well as elements of ragtime and European folk music. Later came big band jazz, or swing music.

In the forties and fifties came what was called modern jazz. This modern jazz was more complex harmonically and melodic than earlier styles of jazz. But its most outstanding feature was its new approach to rhythm. When creating a melody, the performers used new rhythms, and the drums played in a more complex style.

Another major step in the development of jazz was the "new direction" of the sixties. This is a free form of jazz. The whole group of performers could change the tempo and speed of the piece several times during the performance without planning it in advance. This does not mean that the music is becoming disorganized: it is simply that it has become freer in spirit and manner. So you can see that jazz is a style of music that is constantly changing but retains its basic qualities.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

White graphene for microcircuit cooling 26.07.2015

Rice University scientists studied the properties of a columnar allotropic variety of boron nitride (BN), which is called "white graphene" due to its isoelectronicity with carbon and the ability to form layers one atom thick, and concluded that this material has a higher thermal conductivity than the structures that form it. separately.

Modeling the parameters of a material in which the layers are connected by nanotube columns showed that its thermal conductivity depends on the distance between the columns and their length.

The study may be promising for solving the problem of microchip cooling.
