The document discusses strategies for attracting an indie audience to a magazine. It suggests using cover photos that feature indie musicians to draw in fans. It also recommends using large font for artist names on the cover and contents page to highlight featured content. Additionally, it advises addressing the reader directly using possessive pronouns to make them feel part of the indie community and included in content about music and social issues.
The document summarizes how the media product represents particular social groups. It represents young people through casual language typically found in music magazines. It represents both males and females by using gender-neutral and slightly female-oriented colors. It represents middle-class audiences through photographs of white, indie people and rough design elements, appealing to pride in working-class backgrounds.
The document discusses how the media product represents young people through casual language, sporting terms, and colors that appeal to both males and females. It also aims to represent the middle class target audience through a rough design aesthetic and uses photographs that primarily depict white, indie people to represent the typical audience for the genre in the area where it is produced, despite the genre appealing to people of all ethnicities.
The document discusses strategies for attracting and addressing an indie audience in a magazine. It suggests using large photographs of people who represent the indie genre to help readers connect and identify with them. It also recommends using a large masthead on the cover to prominently feature the main artist being covered. Additionally, it advises directly addressing the reader using words like "your" to make them feel included in the indie social group and providing entertaining content to encourage reading.
The document discusses strategies for attracting and addressing an indie audience in a magazine. It suggests using large prominent photographs on the cover that feature people who represent the indie genre to help readers identify with them. It also recommends using a large masthead across the cover and highlighting artist names in larger font to draw attention to the featured content. The text aims to make readers feel like they are part of an exclusive yet social indie group by directly addressing them, using possessive pronouns, and providing content that helps build their personal and social identities within that community.
The document discusses how the media product represents different social groups through design choices. It represents young people through casual language and terms related to sports and energy. Both males and females are represented through the use of colors like purple, black, and off-white that appeal to both genders. The rough design appeals to middle class readers who value humble backgrounds, and photographs primarily show Caucasian indie music fans, as the target area has few ethnic minorities, though the genre appeals more broadly.
The audience for this media product includes both males and females, as evidenced by its gender-neutral color scheme of white, black, and purple. It targets individuals who identify with the indie genre through their clothing, music, and taste for unique vintage items. Examples of indie artists and bands that this audience may listen to are also provided to further define this target demographic.
IPC MEDIA would be a suitable company to distribute the magazine because they have experience distributing similar magazines like NME and have been in business since 1988. IPC publishes a wide variety of magazines internationally and nationally, demonstrating their reliability and ability to distribute the magazine to indie readers worldwide. Their focus on different audiences also makes them a good fit to distribute a gender neutral magazine.
IPC media would be well-suited to distribute the magazine because they have experience distributing similar magazines like NME that target the same audience, and because the magazine's focus on both men and women could help expand IPC's portfolio across gender categories.

The document discusses how the media product represents different social groups through design choices. It represents young people through casual language focused on energy. Both males and females are represented through a purple color that appeals to both genders. The magazine represents a middle-class, white audience through photographs of white indie people and design elements that appeal to those from poorer backgrounds.
The document summarizes how the author's media product uses and develops conventions of real magazines. It follows many conventions such as including a masthead, date, price, and barcode. However, it also challenges some conventions such as placing the taglines across the bottom instead of left and right. Overall, the author strives to make the product look realistic while also adding some personal stylistic choices.

The document discusses criteria for images to work well together in a double page spread (DPS). It provides examples of images that do and do not work well together. Images that work well together have a visual connection like similar aesthetics, colors, crops, and were taken at the same time. The images provided as examples do not work well together as a DPS because they have different colors, crops, and some are portrait while others are landscape orientation.
This document discusses potential front cover photographs for an indie magazine. Three example photographs are presented that would work well, while one is presented that would not work well. The examples that would work well show a model making eye contact, have a plain background, and feature clothing fitting the target audience. The example that would not work has an unattentive model, busy background, and incorrect orientation.
The document discusses three potential front cover photograph examples for an indie magazine. For each example, the key points made are:
Example 1: The photo has the subject holding a guitar but is overexposed and he isn't making eye contact.
Example 2: The photo works well because the subject is making eye contact, the background is plain, and his clothes fit the target audience.
Example 3: This photo works best because the subject is making eye contact, the plain white background follows research, his clothes fit the audience, and his black/white attire fits the magazine's color scheme.
This document provides details on the design choices for a magazine cover and contents page. The author chose a deeper purple color based on feedback that it would appear more gender neutral. For the cover, a mid-shot portrait was selected as research found this helps readers feel connected to the person featured. The contents page includes a range of studio and live shots to showcase the variety of articles. Photographs of different angles were used to give readers insight into the bands from multiple perspectives.
The document discusses photographs taken as possibilities for the front cover of a magazine. It notes that all photos were taken in portrait orientation to fit an A4 page size, and used medium shots showing from head to chest. This type of mid-shot was chosen because research found it is commonly used on magazine covers. Three example photos are described, with the third said to work best because the model makes eye contact, has a plain white background, wears clothes fitting the target audience, and his black and white appearance fits the magazine's color scheme.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
