Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1900-talet förändrades musiklivets villkor i grunden. Bruket av nya elektroniska ljudmedier innebar att musik kunde framföras utan musikers faktiska närvaro. En av konsekvenserna var att ”levande musik” myntades som begrepp. Såväl fackföreningar som proggaktivister och kulturpolitiker ville försvara den levande musiken mot dess förmenta motsats, ”mekanisk musik”. As indicated by the subtitle – “legislation, sound media and the defence of live music” – this thesis explores the intersections of politics and technology, economy and aesthetics. It concerns the changing preconditions for the commodification of music during the 20th century, caused by the use of loudspeakers and radio broadcasting, primarily in Sweden. It was around 1930 that “live music” (leva

The top layer of a road is made up of a mixture of stones and bitumen and the durability is dependent on how well the bitumen adheres to the stones. The standard way of determining the bitumen coverage in the industry is the so called rolling bottle method, where a number of stones cov- ered with bitumen are put in a rolling bottle and the bitu- men coverage is estimated after different times.

Daß Schweden während der sogenannten Großmachtzeit (1620-1720 ) enge Beziehungen zu den europäischen Kulturländern unterhielt, ist allgemein bekannt. Was aber war nach der Großmachtzeit geschehen, in der Zeit nach den Kriegszügen Karls XII., also während der sogenannten Freiheitszeit zwischen 1720 und 1771? Das Repertoire der Hofkapelle aus diesen Jahren ist größtenteils verschollen. Die beiden Un

Gas chromatographic methods for the determination of cyclic organic acid anhydrides (OAAs) in industrial air are reviewed. The OAAs discussed are phthalic, hexahydrophthalic, methylhexahydrophthalic, tetrahydrophthalic, methyltetrahydrophthalic, trimellitic, maleic, and octenylsuccinic anhydride. Solid sorbent sampling methods, using Amberlite XAD-2 or Tenax, are used for sampling of OAA vapour. T

När man möter en mamma eller pappa berättar de kanske om sitt barn. Men är barnen deras? I många andra sammanhang talas det om våra barn: skolan, sjukvården, föreningar gör också anspråk på att äga barnen. Världen kring handikappade barn sätter förhållandet på sin spets: där finns en myriad av yrken och institutioner, som hävdar att de både vet mer och vet bäst. Experternas kunskaper är eftersökt

When the Ostra Torn area of Lund, Sweden was further developed in the 1990s, storm water was connected to the old separate storm water system. This increases the risk of flooding near the connection points. In this paper, the function of the system is analyzed using Storm Water Management Model SWMM. Consequences of extreme storms are investigated: It is shown that it is not necessary to connect t

Arm lymphoedema and impaired shoulder mobility and muscle strength are well known side-effects to breast cancer treatment. The aim of this prospective study was to follow closely and describe the arm volume, range of motion of the shoulder and muscle strength of the shoulder and hand after breast cancer treatment in order to form a basis for further studies in the area including physiotherapy inte
