Alan Turing: Artificial intelligence as human self‐knowledge

This article explores the life and ideas of Alan Turing (1912–1954), commonly known as the father of artificial intelligence (AI), and highlights the process whereby the human self is reconceptualized in the development of Turing's ideas of machine intelligence. I will further illustrate how this process of self‐reconceptualization – composed of the pursuit, adaptation and transformation of self‐knowledge – is closely related to contemporary digital life. In doing so, I wish to reveal the ways in which Turing's underlying self‐transforming agenda of AI can contribute to our understanding of the human self, for AI, as I will argue, leads to questions of existence and existential anxieties.     

3D打印技术在龙门石窟金刚经洞修复中的应用

为了缓解龙门石窟金刚经洞因局部坍塌引起的水害、微生物等病害发育问题,利用3D打印技术对坍塌部位进行修复:修复部件以光敏树脂为打印材料,修复部件为空心结构以减轻荷载；对修复部件进行光场、温度场仿真设计,使洞窟内日光辐射强度降低至日光直射的50%~56%,窟内温度分布差值由6.6℃降低到1.9℃；修复部件采用S8801涂覆内外表面,S8801老化实验后主要性能保持率均大于90%,并采用玄武岩纤维与玻璃纤维增强修复部件内表面。经多次降雨后观察,龙门石窟金刚经洞由缺失导致的雨水倒勾等问题得到有效缓解。该工作为3D打印技术与不可移动石质文物修复工作结合奠定基础。     

德沃夏克《幽默曲》音乐表现形式之比较

德沃夏克是19世纪捷克民族乐派的主要代表人物,他的钢琴小品《幽默曲》因脍炙人口的旋律被广为流传。本文以《幽默曲》为例,探讨在音乐本体（乐谱）不变的情况下,音乐表现形式与表现内容之间的关联。
