Estampie

The estampie is a medieval dance and musical form which was a popular instrumental and vocal form in the 13th and 14th centuries. It is a poetry

From the ancient pictures from Tacuinum a handbook from medieval age, it become easy to say that it is a form of romance song in which people use to dance in a very sopesticated way. It was probably danced with sliding steps by couples to the music of vielles (medieval viols); its afterdance was the saltarello. In musical form the estampie derives from the sequence, a medievalgenre of Latin hymn..

The estampie is similar in form to the lai, consisting of a succession of repeated. According to Johannes de Grocheio, there were both vocal and instrumental estampies (for which he used the Latin calque "stantipes"), which differed somewhat in form, in that the vocal estampie begins with a refrain, which is repeated at the end of each verse. Also according to Grocheio, the repeating sections in both the vocal and instrumental estampie were called puncta, in the form:

aa, bb, cc, etc..

The two statements of each punctus differ only in their endings, described as apertum ("open") and clausum ("closed") by Grocheio, who believed that six puncta were standard for the stantipes with seven puncta . The structure can therefore be diagrammed as:

a+x, a+y; b+w, b+z; etc..

Sometimes the same two endings are used for all the puncta, producing the structure

a+x, a+y; b+x, b+y, c+x, c+y,

Estampie is a medieval dance and musical form which was a popular instrumental and vocal form in the 13th and 14th centuries .

The single most important use of the element gold is for wires that join integrated circuits to the conducting pads that then connect microelectronic chips with external circuitry. A typical application uses gold wires 1.0 milmil (0.001 inch) in diameter and 45 milmil long. Although the current under normal conditions is much less, such a wire will fuse (that is, melt and interrupt the current) when the current exceeds some 660 mAmA. A) Find the current density in the wire...
