E-book The Graphic Design : Idea Book

Albers advanced the idea that colour is continually deceptive, and that the exact same colour can evoke innumerable responses depending on how it is seen against other colours. He argued against ‘mechanically applying or merely implying laws and rules of colour harmony’, because of the subjective nature of perception – it is almost impossible to see a colour by itself and not interacting …

E-book Making a Laboratory : Dynamic Configurations with Transversal Video

e concept of the laboratory has a long history in theater and performance. Philosopher of science Robert Crease devoted a volume to developing an analogy between scientific experiments and theatri-cal processes, according to which a laboratory “is a particular space of action” (1993: 106, italics original). But the analogy between laboratory and theater is as problematic for philosophers of…

E-book Upon Entropy : Architectonics of the Image in the Age of Information

In computerized societies, Lyotard w rites, knowledge ceases to have an end in itself and starts to be produced in order to be sold and consumed. Exchange becomes its ultimate goal: the introduc-tion of the computer and information technology defines not only a society but a condition at large and a stage of progress in which knowledge turns into a commodity. According to Lyotard, such a con…

E-book The Digital, a Continent? : Nature and Poetics

Contingent observations like this can be traced to the beginnings of Greek speculative thought—dating back to the Milesian school—where some of “those [philosophers] who discoursed on nature” discovered them in a geometric relation. Similarly, architecture, building from its cosmic foundations and position relative to the sun, also participates in such climatic affairs. As the light of …

E-book Stories

Storytelling was clearly of major importance in the development of cinema and television, as well as new forms of printed and graphic media, during the early twentieth century. But even if these media were new (or, more accurately, new inf lections of existing screen and print forms), storytelling is as old and universal as any sense of consciousness, according to the neuroscientist, Antonio Da…

I disagree with such an evaluation and would rather claim that there is more meaning to the film, drawn to it from the original novel, than the audience can take in while watching the film only once, especially if those who watch it are unfamiliar with Herbert’s novel. In fact, every form of literature or visual media is in a way impacted by the time o…

E-Book Spaces: Exploring Spatial Experiences of Representation and Reception …

Film has long been defined as a temporal art, most famously by André Bazin and Andrei Tarkovsky. Yet more fundamentally it has always been a spatial art, transporting its audiences imaginatively to spaces and places other than those they literally inhabit. In the digital era, this spatial illusion and paradox has been greatly expanded – by the predominance of domestic film viewing, along wit…

Risible explores the forgotten history of laughter, from ancient Greece to the sitcom stages of Hollywood.

E-Book Animism, Materiality, and Museums: How Do Byzantine Things Feel?

Among our most cherished modern assumptions is our distance from the material world we claim to love or, alternately, to dominate and own.

E-book Masterpieces of the J. Paul Getty Museum : European Sculpture

I forget who first jokingly defined sculpture as something you bump into when you step back to look at a painting.

There are undoubtedly many reasons for this. We are a society geared to experiencing things on a flat plane rather than in …

E-book Gianni Versace

Versace posed and provoked the basic issues of fashion's role. Versace tantalized us with vulgarity.
