Diffusion of comptency management tools allow to analyze how they are used by employees (Gilbert, 2003). This article shows that the analysis of unexpected uses is a way to better understand the dynamics of those tools. Data collected in a petrochemical company that pays the competencies for 10 years show that a management tool is consituted by heterogeneous elements that are articulated. The unexpected uses weak this articulation. Those uses appear therefore as an explanation of the trajectory of this management tool.

AbstractIn this excerpt from her book Sackbut Blues, Gayle Young outlines the story of early electronic music, and provides a window into a specific historical era when scientific and artistic innovation were strongly supported by the public and by public institutions. It is based on many interviews with colleagues of Hugh Le Caine as well as excerpts from written correspondence. The musical intentions of Le Caine's instruments are outlined, as well as the technical means of creating them. His early emphasis on touch-sensitive keys, and the simultaneous control of many different musical parameters, was evident in the 1948 sackbut, an instrument in which he used voltage control for the first time, making the sackbut the first analogue synthesizer. His 1955 composition Dripsody, made on his prototype multi-track, used a keyboard similar to that in the sackbut, but rather than control electronic tone generators, it controlled the playback speed of several reels of tape. For Le Caine, sound was the basic medium of music, whether electronic or sampled.
