![]() The result is – rather unsurprisingly – that they are the smallest species of Boa so far recognised. Out there, food, water and hiding places are all scarce. Sonoran Boas, on the other hand, live in the Sonoran Desert biotope. Red Tail Boas grow the largest, coming from rich, densely forested tropical areas where they have had room to evolve into very large snakes. They’re all tough, hardy survivors, but some habitats just allow for animals to reach a larger size. Remember that these weights are highly variable – these are broad guidelines only! Species Male Female Red Tail Boa ( Boa constrictor) 15 to 40lbs (7-18kg) 25 to 60lbs (12-27kg) Common Boa ( Boa imperator) 10 to 20lbs (4.5-9kg) 18 to 33lbs (8-15kg) Sonoran Bao ( Boa sigma) 10-20% lighter than Common Boas 10-20% lighter than Common Boas Boa Constrictor Size in feetĪs you may have guessed from the weight table above, Boa Constrictors also vary greatly in length according to their species. A nice Red Tail Boa ( Boa constrictor) Boa Constrictor weight chart In fact, Ball Pythons, Hognose Snakes, and Garter Snakes, all have larger females than males. You may notice a similar pattern of sexual size dimorphism in other snake species. ![]() This is the direct cause of their larger size when compared with males. Females need a bigger body to accommodate these large litters, and more fat reserves to provision them with. Boas have a lot of babies in one go – anywhere from a dozen to over 40. Whichever species you choose, females are almost always longer and heavier than males. Check out the table at the end of this section for a rough guide. The other two species are smaller and a lot lighter. ![]() These snakes can achieve lengths of up to 12 feet, and weights of as much as 90 to 100lbs (45kg), though 25 to 60lbs (12-27kg) is more common. There are three species, which we’ll discuss in a moment, but the largest is by far the True Red Tail Boa ( Boa constrictor). If you want to know how much your Boa will weigh, the main thing to consider is the species. Once it reached 8 or 9ft, though, its growth would have slowed down and it would have gotten just as heavy as the other one. Unfortunately, I sold it (you can’t keep them all) so I don’t know how big it eventually got. However, the 7ft long snake was younger and still growing at a fast pace. There was nothing wrong with either of these animals. Their girth and weight also tend to increase as they mature, with older animals being stockier and heavier than younger ones of a similar length.įor example, I can personally remember handling an 8ft long Red Tail Boa that weighed 26lbs (12kg), and a 7ft long one that weighed only 15lbs (7kg). By this I mean any species whose scientific name starts with “ Boa”. This is especially true of heavy-bodied species, like those in the Boa complex. One thing you’ll know if you’ve kept snakes is that their weight increases almost exponentially as they get longer.

Take for instance the change-blindness illusion from vision (e.g., O’Regan et al., 1999) 1. Illusions are a vivid way to remind us about some basic but essential facts about perception. Illusions as a Signature of Perceptual Inference We will then conclude by speculating on the potential role of ambiguity in the appreciation of music. Finally, through a few musical illustrations and a computational model, we will suggest that perceptual ambiguity has been part of the composer’s repertoire for quite some time. For our purposes, we will emphasize recent studies, both behavioral and neuro-physiological, that have made use of so-called bistability illusions based on ambiguous stimuli. We will then describe the problem that ASA has to solve and what we know of the neural processes involved. We will first briefly discuss the potential of illusions to reveal fundamental principles of perception in general. The aim here is not to repeat those arguments, but rather to provide a brief review, aimed at the non-specialist and biased toward perceptual illusions: we argue that illusions seem to be both a powerful investigation tool for neuroscientists and an important expressive device for musicians. ![]() ASA has also been studied in a musical context, with the hypothesis that many of the established rules of polyphonic writing in the Western tradition may be underpinned by perceptual principles ( Huron, 2001). It has long been and still is one of the hot topics of auditory neuroscience, with its share of important advances and ongoing controversies (e.g., Shamma and Micheyl, 2010 for a review). ASA refers to the ability of human listeners to parse complex acoustic scenes into coherent objects, such as a single talker in the middle of a noisy babble, or, in music, a single melody in the midst of a large orchestra ( Bregman, 1990). More precisely, we address the issue of auditory scene analysis (ASA). This paper aims at highlighting some cross-connections that, we argue, may exist between auditory neuroscience, perceptual illusions, and music. We then put forward the opinion that some degree perceptual ambiguity may participate in our appreciation of music. By means of a few musical illustrations and by using a computational model inspired by neuro-physiological principles, we suggest that this relies on a detailed (if perhaps implicit) knowledge of the rules of ASA and of its inherent ambiguity. Interestingly, musicians will not always aim at making each physical source intelligible, but rather express one or more melodic lines with a small or large number of instruments. After reviewing some of those studies, we turn to music, which arguably provides some of the most complex acoustic scenes that a human listener will ever encounter. Recently, the neural mechanisms implicated in the transformation of ambiguous sensory information into coherent auditory scenes have been investigated using so-called bistability illusions (where an unchanging ambiguous stimulus evokes a succession of distinct percepts in the mind of the listener). ![]() However, the acoustical problem is ill-posed and it must be solved from noisy sensory input. ![]() In general, ASA uncovers the most likely physical causes that account for the waveform collected at the ears. The pivotal issue is auditory scene analysis (ASA), or what enables us to make sense of complex acoustic mixtures in order to follow, for instance, a single melody in the midst of an orchestra. In this review paper aimed at the non-specialist, we explore the use that neuroscientists and musicians have made of perceptual illusions based on ambiguity. 4 Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, MD, USA.3 Fondation Pierre-Gilles de Gennes pour la Recherche, Paris, France.2 Département D’études Cognitives, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, France.1 Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique and Université Paris Descartes, UMR 8158, Paris, France.Daniel Pressnitzer 1,2* Clara Suied 1,2,3 Shihab A. The diaphragm is in a different position. There is a certain feeling I like about sitting in that position. I decided to get off drums my voice was improving more than my drumming was, although I felt, and still do, that I play and sing quite well. I played in bands all through school, actually I was a drummer-singer. I went to COS (College of the Sequoias) in Visalia, California for two years. When I was fourteen we moved eight miles to Lemoore, California. I was born in the small California town of Hanford in the San Joaquin Valley. To start at the beginning, what is your background? After sitting in on a rehearsal for the band, Steve and I repaired to a restaurant on San Francisco's Pier 39, a few blocks from his apartment, to talk vocal music. It was when Journey was rehearsing for the Departure sessions, that we were able to get together with VOICE Editorial Advisory Board Member Steve Perry long enough for an interview. This all in prelude to the Departure album scheduled for release in March. Last fall Columbia issued Journey's three pre-Perry albums in one single set called In The Beginning. They have bucked the trend at the height of the record recession, having sales surge after sales surge." CBS Records' Mike Jensen said, "The addition of Steve Perry to Journey has made them a platinum act. The chemistry was obviously right, for the next Journey album, Infinity was their biggest yet. They melded well with the remaining founders of Journey, Gregg Rolie (keyboard, vocals), Neal Schon (lead guitar), and Ross Valory (bass). They were replaced by Steve Smith on drums and Steve Perry as lead vocalist. In 1977 George Tickner and Aynsley Dunbar left to seek their fortunes elsewhere. Formed in 1971, Journey was well along to becoming a top draw when changes to personnel occurred. In such an environment it was not surprising to find the top Columbia recording quintet Journey, homed-based. He started his solo career in 1982 with the release of his debut solo album, Don't Fight It, with Kenny Loggins.The San Francisco Bay Area has spawned its share of innovative rock groups. Perry has also had a successful solo career. During his tenure, Steve provided lead vocals on nine albums. They broke up after being unable to secure a record deal.Īs he was about to give up he received a call from Walter 'Herbie' Herbert, the manager of Journey. Then there was the Prog Rock band, Pieces, which he formed after moving to Thousand Oaks, California. Steve kicked off his career in a band named Ice, which quickly disbanded due to improper management. Perry's father was a vocalist who co-owned a radio station called KNGS. Perry penned several hit songs during his time.īorn to Portuguese parents, Raymond Perry and Mary Quaresma, he was raised as an only child in Hanford, California. Lead singer for Journey Steve Perry served the band during their most commercially successful time. Journey lead singer Steve Perry in a black and white vertical striped shirt.( Source : Sadly, right before their inaugural tour in support of their debut album, Steve was replaced by Ron Wikso. He formed a band named The Storm with Journey members, Steve Smith and Ross Valory in 1991. Gregg debuted as a soloist following his departure from Journey. That said, he contributed his vocals on albums including Evolution, Infinity, and Departure. He changed his position from lead vocals to co-lead vocals after Steve Perry joined the band in 1977. Rolie served as a lead singer for the albums Journey, Look into the Future, and Next. Aside from lead singer, he was also the keyboardist and harmonicist. In 1973, Gregg joined a new band with Neal Schon, which eventually turned into Journey. Several notable Santana songs like Black Magic Woman, No One To Depend On, and Oye Coma Va, feature his voice as the lead vocalist. Like in Journey, he was the original lead singer of Santana too. The name was later shortened to simply Santana.Īs a co-founder, he experienced the first wave of success of the band and was a part of several hit albums. Gregg then joined Carlos Santana and three others to start the Santana Blues Band in 1966. He played with a group named William Penn while he was in his senior year at Cubberley High School in California, in 1965. One of the band's co-founders, Rolie, was also one of the five founders of the Santana band.īorn in Seattle Washington, Rolie started his career early. The original lead singer of Journey is Gregg Rolie.

Rather, it contains a pattern of life that can be interpreted as a computer (actually, unbounded numbers of such patterns, most of which are short lived due to flaws), which simulates a non-determinstic computer, which proceeds to exhastively simulate entire families of universes. I used QSynth as a MIDI synthesiser, JACK and audacity to record the audio. The Conway's game of life doesn't directly contain it. Included in the code are some recordings of various examples, in. This allows the listener to hear the evolution of the game without having to sit through half an hour of notes! I experimented with different speeds of note and different musical scales and the following video is of “Gosper’s Glider Gun”, with each note being played in a fraction of a second.

I coded a bounded square of cells (32×32), and ran the automaton rules over the set. ![]() So, using a little bit of code, some MIDI sounds and a lunch break, I explored just that.
