moto perpetuo

Perpetual Motion The first album Motus Perpetuus, (2004) which simply means Perpetual Motion includes the bands' Following the Sign 3 Song EP from 2001.

Think of kinesis as analogous to the enthalpy (I may well be misusing this term from physical chemistry, but I like the way it sounds) of a closed system: it encompasses all the notes that move the music ahead in time. Chopin's Etude in E-flat Minor, op. 10, no. 6, illustrates all of these motional types.

perpetual, permanent: perpetuus,-a,-um (adj. A), continuous throughout, uninterrupted, unbroken; constant, general, universal, entire, whole; permanent; everlasting; syn.

measure, manner Latin, measure, manner.

In kinesis, an organism changes its movement in a non-directional way - e.g., speeding up or slowing down - in response to a cue. For example, woodlice move faster in response to temperatures that are higher or lower than their preferred range.

In biology, the term kinesis means movement, especially the kind that's caused by a stimulus. If you turn on the kitchen light at night and see cockroaches scatter, they are showing kinesis.

moto perpetuo is a borrowing from Italian. Etymons: Italian moto perpetuo.

Moto perpetuo literally means 'perpetual motion' but is also the name for a fast piece of music, usually of equal note lengths.

movement, motion Noun. Italian, movement, motion, from Latin motus, from motus, past participle of movēre to move.

in perpetuum in British English Latin (ɪn pɜːˈpɛtjʊəm ) adverb. for ever.

Kinesis, like a taxis or tropism, is a movement or activity of a cell or an organism in response to a stimulus (such as gas exposure, light intensity or ambient temperature). Woodlouse activity decreases as humidity increases. Unlike taxis, the response to the stimulus provided is non-directional.

An example of kinesis is the movement of a cell or an organism as a result of its exposure to certain stimuli such as light, temperature, and chemical. The two main types of kineses are orthokinesis and klinokinesis.
