Book excerpt: "They gave me dreams of euphoria, life without pain, and took the body I no longer needed. No one wakes from the pod dreams. No one ever wanted to. Except, I did."Alex rouses to near darkness, glass enclosing him on all sides, drowning in salty fluid. Except, his lungs don't burn for air, his mind doesn't fade away, and there is a mechanical umbilical cord extending out of his navel.The Institute offers many services, but their specialty is a release from reality. All a Dreamer needs to pay is everything they have: blood, bone marrow and stems cells. A donation to biotech science. Thousands of broken souls sleep in their pods, every thought and each emotion manipulated, improved. Alex is the only man to wake, to get out. The world outside is as beautiful as it is cruel. Phosphorescent mushrooms illuminate streets patrolled by military police. There are riots in the capitol of this moon colony, and the never-ending war is coming home. Can Alex pave a life of normality in a world ripping itself apart? To escape his past, the trauma and addiction, that lead him to a pod? He meets a group of unlikely friends, and perhaps life will be different this time.Despite how Alex runs, the horrifying nature of his reality pursues him. The pods Dreams keep tugging him back.I Dream in Colour is a story of loneliness, and the dark places our minds can go to. It is filled with visuals of wonder, in a strange, alien world. Mostly, it is about the human capacity to hold onto hope-and to lose it.Perfect for fans of Jeff Vandermeer, Phillip K. Dick and N. K. Jemisin.What readers are saying about I Dream in Color"It feels real, with a filter of the surreal put over it." - Goodreads Review"There is one word that keeps coming to me to describe this book: Powerful." - Goodreads Review"The dystopian world has resonance and a grounding in reality that is, frankly, deeply unnerving." - Goodreads Review

Book Synopsis Do You Dream in Color? by : Laurie Rubin
Download or read book Do You Dream in Color? written by Laurie Rubin and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colors, Rubin tells us, affect everyone through sound, smell, taste, and a vast array of emotions and atmospheres. She explains that although she has been blind since birth, she has experienced color all her life. In her memoir Do You Dream in Color?, Laurie Rubin looks back on her life as an international opera singer who happens to be blind. From her loneliness and isolation as a middle school student to her experiences skiing, Rubin offers her young readers a life-story rich in detail and inspiration drawn from everyday challenges. Beginning with her childhood in California, Rubin tells the story of her life and the amazing experiences that led her to a career as an internationally celebrated mezzo-soprano. Rubin describes her past as a "journey towards identity," one she hopes will resonate with young people struggling with two fundamental questions: "Who am I?" and "Where do I fit in?" Although most of us aren't blind, Rubin believes that many of us have traits that make us something other than "normal." These differences, like blindness, may seem like barriers, but for the strong and the persistent, dreams can overcome barriers, no matter how large they may seem. This is what makes her story so unique yet universal and so important for young readers.

Download or read book Chromatopia written by David Coles and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This origin story of history’s most vivid color pigments is perfect for artists, history buffs, science lovers, and design fanatics. Did you know that the Egyptians created the first synthetic color and used it to create the famous blue crown of Queen Nefertiti? Or that the noblest purple comes from a predatory sea snail? In the Roman Empire, hundreds of thousands of snails had to be sacrificed to produce a single ounce of dye. Throughout history, pigments have been made from deadly metals, poisonous minerals, urine, cow dung, and even crushed insects. From grinding down beetles and burning animal bones to alchemy and pure luck, Chromatopia reveals the origin stories behind over fifty of history’s most vivid color pigments. Featuring informative and detailed color histories, a section on working with monochromatic color, and “recipes” for paint-making, Chromatopia provides color enthusiasts with an eclectic story of how synthetic colors came to be. Red lead, for example, was invented by the ancient Greeks by roasting white lead, and it became the dominant red in medieval painting. Spanning from the ancient world to modern leaps in technology, and vibrantly illustrated throughout, this book will add a little chroma to anyone’s understanding of the history of colors.
