What is Text: Definition and 566 Discussions

TEXT is the band founded by Kristofer Steen, David Sandström, Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström. All, except Bäckström, were ex-members of hardcore band Refused. Stylistically, they have little in common with Refused. Their debut album, Text, is a mix of spoken word, music of various styles, and ambient sound effects, often producing an ethereal, avant-garde sound. Apart from the three "Tableau" tracks (which are one piece, split up across the album), each track could be described as fitting into a different genre. In 2008, a second album, Vital Signs, was released. Yet again the style of music is far from Refused and the first Text album. Only Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström appear on this album.
The record came out on Demonbox Recordings in Sweden and on Buddyhead in America and the rest of the world. Text – "Text" was Buddyhead #4 and considered a building block in what is now a very successfully diverse indie-boutique-label run by music journalist Travis Keller. Text announced a US tour the year after the record was released on Buddyhead but due to conflicts with International Noise Conspiracy tours, it was cancelled.

    Sometimes when I write an integral or sum the limits are not written out under and above the integral/sum sign, but on the right making the total symbol rather big.

    Differential Equations Text: Finding Rigor & Clarity

    Can anyone recommend an elementary but rigorous text on differential equations that takes care to distinguish between a function, f: X \rightarrow Y, and its value f(x) \in Y, as Spivak does in his Calculus. I find I'm getting rather confused by the traditional y=y(x) type dual-meaning notation.
