The Cinematic Gaze as ‘A Long Loving Look at the Real’: Andrei Tarkovsky and Walter Burghardt’s Theology of Contemplation

“…50 The opening of Nostalghia bears significant similarities to this genre, and even prompted Paul Schrader to write about the scene described above in his new introduction to the 2018 edition of Transcendental Style in Film, comparing Tarkovsky's style to that often seen in slow cinema. Schrader describes the long take as 'the sine qua non of slow cinema,' 51 and observes that Tarkovsky uses the long take just as the slow cinema filmmakers that followed him do; 'the Tarkovsky long shot is more than long. It's meditative.'…”

“…It's meditative.' 52 Interestingly, Schrader also compares Tarkovsky's rendering of time to Bergson's philosophy: 'for Tarkovsky duration was more than mere waiting. It was Henri Bergson's 'durée', duration, time itself, the vital force governing and meditating upon all organic life.'…”

“…It was Henri Bergson's 'durée', duration, time itself, the vital force governing and meditating upon all organic life.' 53 Yet Schrader errs when he writes that Tarkovsky 'was not interested in the spiritual per se.' 54 Contrary to what Schrader suggests, Tarkovsky was deeply invested in his Russian Orthodox tradition and in understanding the world through the vision of Christian theology; Sculpting in Time, for example, is filled with spiritual and theological language, including numerous references to Christ, which is unsurprising given the number of 'Christ-figures' in his films.…”

Bulk Droplet Vitrification: An Approach to Improve Large-Scale Hepatocyte Cryopreservation Outcome

“…In our previous study, we have determined L P (1.11 μm/atm/min), P S (7.70 μm/min) and σ (0.581) for rat hepatocytes in exposure to DMSO at 4°C 19 . To simplify our calculation, we substituted DMSO for EG which will result in a small but acceptable deviance because the relative density difference is less than 1% and (DMSO 1.101 g/cm 3 vs EG 1.11 g/cm 3 ) and the size difference of the molecules is very small, assuming a hard sphere model (radius-DMSO 2.9 Angstrom vs radius-EG 2.18-2.44 Angstrom) 33,34 . We calculated…”

Interferometer for force measurement by shortcut-to-adiabatic arms guiding

“…Closer to our goal, Mandel et al [16] demonstrated transport of the spin-dependent wavefunctions in optical lattices moving in opposite directions with a scheme proposed in [17], and Steffen et al [10] built a single-atom interferometer based on a similar setting. To implement our scheme we envision, for each spin, double supperlattices composed by an ultra-deep optical lattice as a "conveyor-belt" trapping potential [18] with negligible tunneling, see [19] and references therein, while the compensating force may be achieved by a second lattice with much larger periodicity than the trapping lattice to make it effectively homogeneous for each arm wavefunction. Factors of ten between the periodicities of two lattices are routinely found playing with the angle between the crossing beams [20] and even higher factors are technically possible [21].…”
