<< La musica cambia e oggi nasce soprattutto dalla tecnologia, è determinata da quanto sei bravo a premere pulsanti. Puoi fingere sempre, battere i pugni sul tavolo e farla diventare una batteria. La cosa triste è che la bravura rischia di scomparire >>
<< Un esempio: ho suonato un brano molto veloce davanti a mia nipote di otto anni e lei alla fine mi ha detto: "Ci deve essere un bottone per farlo succedere automaticamente". Dopo venti anni di dedizione, anzi di asservimento alla chitarra, ecco cosa mi tocca sentire >> Jeff Beck

<< Global warming by just 2 degrees Celsius is likely to force some tropical plant, animal and human populations to relocate hundreds of miles from their current homes this century >>
AA << foresee dramatic population declines in Mexico, Central America, Africa, India and other tropical locales if ecosystems or humans move due to climate change. In their analysis, the pair used a model to demonstrate how climate dynamics in the tropics can dramatically magnify the consequences of climate change as it is experienced on the ground. This means even small climate changes can have dramatic impacts. >>
AA << describe climate-related displacements in the tropics as "an almost complete evacuation of the equatorial band" that could impact ecosystems as well as human well-being. >>

<< A new temporary "electronic tattoo" (..) that can measure the activity of muscle and nerve cells (..) is poised to revolutionize medicine, rehabilitation, and even business and marketing research. >>
<< The tattoo consists of a carbon electrode, an adhesive surface that attaches to the skin, and a nanotechnology-based conductive polymer coating that enhances the electrode's performance. It records a strong, steady signal for hours on end without irritating the skin. >>
<< The electrode (..) may improve the therapeutic restorationof damaged nerves and tissue -- and may even lead to new insights into our emotional life. >>

<< To investigate, [AA] devised an experiment using three quantum bits, the basic computational units of the quantum computer >>
<< By manipulating these qubits with electronic pulses, [AA] caused them to interact, rotate and evolve in the quantum analog of a highly sensitive classical [chaotic] system >>
<< The result is a map of entanglement entropy of a qubit that, over time, comes to strongly resemble that of classical dynamics — the regions of entanglement in the quantum map resemble the regions of chaos on the classical map >>
