![]() ![]() In 2014 I decided to start a project that would be part of my spiritual path that would paint a picture within its own folklore with influences from all that has helped me on this path. Also, I am intrigued by folk music that had a dark feel to it and that moved me in some way shape or form. S: Since I was very young, I have always been into different folktales especially ones that connect closely to nature and mysticism. ![]() Hi Sean, can you tell us a bit about the origins of Osi and the Jupiter what was the catalyst to getting the project started? When you listen to the notes and imagery of Osi and Jupiter it will take you to a time where nature was the dominant force untouched by humankind, to a time where the land wights and the gods roamed free. The mix of Norse/Appalachian music is such a unique combo that surprisingly works very well because there is an inherent sense of nature and the mysteries that lie beyond the veil. Osi and Jupiter have always been one of those music projects that I immediately gravitated towards. He took the time out of his busy schedule making music to answer my questions with a sense of depth and introspection. I got the pleasure to interview Osi and the Jupiter mastermind Sean Deth and our conversation led to many different paths from the origins of the project to the meaning behind his music. “ Stave” Osi and the Jupiter (August 27, 2021) ![]()

Boss Battles also return in a form more akin to previous Face-Off modes, and they no longer feature the attack power-ups used in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. #Guitar hero world tour guitar pack full#The Band Career mode works in a similar fashion, offering up to four players the opportunity to advance through a full career, with the Battle of the Bands mode letting two groups duke it out online. ![]() The singing mechanic resembles Karaoke Revolution and SingStar in that it requires vocalists to match the pitch and notes of each song, whereas drummers must be timely when depressing the kick drum and striking the proper combination of drum and cymbal pads.Ī revamped single-player Career mode lets gamers advance their musician through a series of gigs by playing a specific number of songs, with the option to change difficulty level or instrument at any time. As with all titles in the Guitar Hero series, gamers must "play" their instruments by rhythmically matching onscreen prompts in order to earn high scores and unlock new songs. For the first time in the series, wannabe rock stars can simulate singing and drumming in addition to the familiar strumming of guitar-shaped controllers, and with the addition of a bass guitar, up to four players can form a band and jam together. The first name in music instrument gaming returns with a Rock Band-esque focus on full band simulation, the ability for players to create their own music, and more than 80 new tracks in Guitar Hero: World Tour. ![]() ![]() ![]() I say unapologetic because you either get into the groove of things and fight another day, or you won’t be making it to the home world after all. It remains the unapologetic space RTS that opens up the ‘battlefield’ in all four dimensions. The gameplay itself hasn’t changed much, and nor should it. The music has been enhanced as well and reminds us how well suited it was to space battles and the deadly cosmic dance of starships.īattles in all 4 dimensions can be intimidating, but rewarding Homeworld’s strength was the story it was telling as we went about commanding our fleet and so to have the narrative that Relic weaved over 15 years ago brought back with such clarity is a beautiful thing. Audio has come a long way from the crackling and popping late 90s, to fancy digital optical surround sound set ups. The audio in the game is another leap as they’ve gone over all of the sounds to clean them up, to the point where you could almost swear they weren’t the original audio files, but they are. Even the original Homeworld 1 & 2 UIs have been stripped out in favour of the direction the sequel was going in with better management for building and research, alleviating a frustration of being taken away from the action. Gearbox has injected much of today’s advancements in visual fidelity into both games, and it’s only when you actively see the original next to its remaster can you truly appreciate just how far the studio has gone.

These pseudo SOI structures studied in this. It has been shown that this approach leads to improved performance and lower power dissipation for sub 100nm CMOS technologies. In this paper, with the help of extensive TCAD simulations, a novel channel and source/drain (S/D) impurity profile engineering has been proposed for pseudo SOI MOSFET structures in order to reduce their junction capacitances.

An analytical model is developed which can predict Lateral channel-engineering (pocket or halo implant) has been The normal and reverse short-channel effect of LDD MOSFET's with It has also been investigated for analog performance like trans-conductance generation factor (gm/ID) and overall gain (gmR0). The device has been investigated for digital performance parameters like the variation of substrate–body voltage on DIBL, IOFF, ION and the threshold voltage VT for sub 100nm technology generation. The impact of gate dielectric permittivity along with the different angles of halo implants on short channel performance contributing to the DIBL, the subthreshold swing, ION/IOFF ratio, and the threshold voltage VT are studied for two different EOT thicknesses. In this paper, we systematically increase the value of gate dielectric (3.9–50) and investigate its effects on conventional, low angle of tilt (10o) and high angle of tilt (50o) halo implants for different device parameters of 100nm n-MOSFETs using two different EOT viz. HALO IMPLANT ION IOFF GAIN RO SIMULATORThe impact of high permittivity gate dielectrics with different equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) for conventional, low and high tilt angle halo implants on the performance of 100nm n-MOSFETs device is studied using device simulator Synopsys ISE-TCAD. The accuracy of the results has been verified by 3-D SILVACO ATLAS. The aforementioned devices are also tested for transconductance (gm) which is an analog performance parameter. The high-? dielectric Hafnium oxide (HfO2) exhibits the best material to minimize SCEs for GAA structures. The parameters are evaluated for various high-k dielectric materials. These parameters are also termed as Short Channel Effects (SCEs) and for a nanoscale device performance these parameters needs to be controlled. The study is based on the ground of logic performance parameters which are Ion/Ioff current ratio, Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL), Subthreshold Swing (SS) and Threshold voltage (Vt) roll-off. The comparative study of Double Gate MOSFET (DGMOSFET), Tri-gate Fin Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) and Gate All Around (GAA) FinFET structures has been done for 22nm and 16nm technologies. FinFETs are the alternative new device structure, which replaces the MOSFET. The MOSFET device performance deteriorates when it is scaled down to 45nm node and an alternative device structure being studied. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the past, the band has stated that they attempt to bring the audience along on a journey in the lore of their music and story, and experiencing their music live, they absolutely crush that goal. Leaning on a more guitar-oriented style of synthwave, epic solos and enormous bass lines abound as they smoothly transitioned from song to song. What’s really special about them is that the quality of music is such that even if their wasn’t already a graphic novel for each release, a new listener could easily imagine what that might look like just by listening to them!Ībsolutely it does! Shrouded in mystery with their cloaks and masks, their image on stage is exactly and mysterious and otherworldly as the music that they play. Their melding of what is an intrinsically visual genre (its overall sound being very closely tied to imagery and iconography from the 80s and most especially John Carpenter-esque soundtracks) to a fully realized lore and storyline ( here) is nothing short of brilliant and grounds their music. Hailing from Boise, Idaho, they have been around the block in terms of creating synthwave music (having been active since 2013), but (in my opinion) have been sorely underrated most of that time. When Magic Sword cleared me to photograph them during their current tour with Avatar at the Fillmore, I was beyond stoked – both because this would be my first photographic experience in the Twin Cities, but also because Magic Sword are AWESOME. ![]() Being a recent transplant to the Minneapolis area, I was excited to get into the venues in the area and see what they’re like. As previously discussed, it’s been both strange and rewarding to see the rise once again of the kind of active instrumental synth rock that used to wash over the landscape in the wake of Tangerine Dream.It was a special experience being at this concert. Much of the artists creating it labored in near-obscurity for years before the axis shifted their way once again, including S U R V I V E. The quartet has toiled away in the shadows of Austin’s music scene since 2008 before suddenly being thrust into the spotlight when two of its members provided the soundtrack to the Netflix hit Stranger Things. #MAGIC SWORD BAND YOUTUBE SERIES#While well-deserved, the success of that series has overshadowed the band’s big-league recording debut RR7349. The group’s second album flows like the score to an obscure 80s science fiction flick, the kind that thrived on VHS and is remembered more for the music than the visuals. The creamy “Dirt,” the hazy “Sorcerer” and the pulsing “Wardenclyffe” utilize gorgeous electronic tones and enigmatic atmospheres that encourage you to make up your own bizarre 80s filmic artifact. RR7349 deserves to be spun as often as Stranger Things. Zombi has been at the forefront of the synthwave revival for years, and, as with S U R V I V E, one of its members has a side gig as a soundtrack composer. The Mind’s Eye is Steve Moore’s latest (though the film came out in 2015), following Cub earlier this year. As such, it’s much harder to divorce from the visuals it’s meant to accompany than his work with Zombi. That’s not to say he’s not a master of texture and movement – a tune like “The Shot” brings on the perfect atmosphere for the horror flick it supports, with just enough energy to keep from being wallpaper but not enough to distract from the action. Most of the pieces are under two minutes, so they die before they get old, though the closing “End Credits,” which encapsulates most of the ideas Moore put into the soundtrack, is a significant exception. Though not as compelling as Moore’s work with his main band, The Mind’s Eye still catches the ear. Mysterious ensemble Magic Sword also produces a soundtrack with Legend EP, the group’s second release. ![]() But it’s for a comic, instead of a film, one revolving around a strange, powerful weapon and the Keeper charged with guarding it. Fortunately, having the pages turn in front of you isn’t necessary to enjoy the sounds of these three tracks. A steady electro-pulse and buzzing bass tones keep the rhythms percolating as synths and guitars exchange melodies with dramatic flourishes. On paper it sounds like progressive rock, and there is some of that ambience, though the sonics favor early videogame music just as much. ![]() ![]() ![]() Primary structural material of the structure.The performance of outrigger structural system is dependent on the: This way, the overall overturning moment is reduced. When a structure with an outrigger system is subjected to lateral load, the core structure's lateral force is transferred to the perimeter columns via outriggers and then to the ground. It engages the outer columns and the central core for safe load transfer. Here, the outriggers act as a stiff arm that connects with the perimeter column. As shown below, outriggers reduce the core moment from top to down under the lateral load.įigure-5 and 6 show a high-rise structure with an outrigger structural system. This, hence, allows to prevent structural and non-structural damage in the structure. The incorporation of outriggers efficiently controls the excessive drift due to lateral loads. This causes high drift and overturning effects on the structure. The core structure of a high-rise building is subjected to cantilever deformation, as shown in Figure-3, while the frame structures surrounding the core are subjected to portal type deformation. High-rise buildings are subjected to large lateral deformation either due to wind or seismic loads. Principle of Outrigger Structural Systems This is performed by the positive interaction between the core and the perimeter system through outriggers. Other than outriggers, the structure is accompanied by belt trusses around the perimeter to provide extra lateral resistance.īoth the core and perimeter systems together with the outrigger control the behavior of the whole building. ![]() Figure-2 shows a truss type outrigger connected to the perimeter column. The core system and mega columns located in the perimeter are connected using outriggers. Whereas the perimeter system is a combination of mega columns. It is a combination of units like lifts, staircases, ducts, etc. Benefits of Outrigger Structural SystemĪn outrigger structure functions in a high-rise building by tying together two systems (see Figure-2), namely,Īs shown in Figure-1, the core structure is the most critical unit of a high-rise building.Features of Outrigger Structural System.Principle of Outrigger Structural Systems. ![]() ![]() Also, it comes with a clip-on tuner that helps to keep the instrument in tune.
