Alternating electric current, also known as AC, is a type of electrical current where the direction of flow of electric charge periodically reverses. This means that the voltage level also alternates between positive and negative values. Unlike direct current (DC), where electricity flows in one direction, AC can easily be transformed to different voltage levels, making it ideal for generating and supplying electricity over long distances.

In mathematics, a conjugate typically refers to a pair of mathematical expressions or quantities that are connected by a specific mathematical operation yet have opposite components. The term conjugate can have different meanings depending on the domain of math:

1. In complex numbers, the conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign.

2. In algebra, the conjugate of a binomial expression (a b) is its corresponding binomial formed by negating the second term (a - b) or vice versa.

3. In abstract algebra, conjugate elements in a group are elements related through a similarity transformation.

4. In geometry, conjugate diameters of an ellipse or hyperbola are any two diameters such that a tangent line to the curve at the endpoint of one diameter is parallel to the other diameter, and vice versa.

The broader meaning for conjugate includes the idea of forming a complementary or related pair in a particular mathematical situation.

Volapük was a French avant-garde band created in 1993 by the drummer Guigou Chenevier, along with Michel Mandel and Guillaume Saurel. In the 1970s Chenevier was a member of Etron Fou Leloublan, a band that was part of the Rock in Opposition movement. Takumi Fukushima became a later addition to the group, playing on Polyglöt which was released in 2000. Volapük announced their breakup in 2010.
The bands style draws from a number of Eurasian ethnic musical traditions, from Spain to the Balkans to Mongolia. Unlike other avant-garde bands that rely on the use of nonmusical sounds, Volapüks music retains more of their folk music roots. Volapük is the name of an artificial language, which also draws its form from multiple language sources.
