Johnny Marr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (979 words)
Johnny Marr (born John Martin Maher on 31 October 1963 in Ardwick, Manchester) is an English guitarist, keyboardist, harmonica player and singer, and is best known as the man behind the music of The Smiths.
Marr, in The Smiths, was known for a delicate, angelically sweet guitar style that could evoke musicality from just a few well-chosen notes.
However in the Smiths, Marr was far more open minded to stick to the Roger McGuinn jangly sound that he is often praised for.
David Marr (1600 words)
Marr's theory was formulated in rigorous terms, yet was sufficiently concrete to be examined in view of the then available anatomical and physiological data.
In analyzing the memory capacity and the recall characteristics of the hippocampus, Marr integrated abstract mathematical (combinatorial) constraints on the representational capabilities of codons with concrete data derived from the latest anatomical and electrophysiological studies.
Marr and Poggio, 1977], were provided by an observation that subsequently grew into a central legacy of Marr's career: the understanding of any information processing system is incomplete without insight into the problems it faces, and without a notion of the form that possible solutions to these problems can take.
