Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Begin the Millennium Rhyme presents the authors original song lyrics over five decades, at the end of the twentieth century, into the new millennium. Raised in the American West in the 1950s and 1960s, Richardson chronicles a personal narrative in 124 song lyrics, the internal and cultural shifts, tenor, and style of his era, reflecting the influences of folk-rock and Americana songwriting. His writing takes the reader on a journey of short stories in rhyme, of time and place. These crafted stories are married to rhythm and melody, as sung on guitar, solo, or performed in band arrangements and sound recordings. This collection offers autobiographical and social observations of an American songwriter in the late twentieth century.

Download or read book PopDaddy written by Jeffrey Roach and published by Popdaddy Press. This book was released on 2016-02-14 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PopDaddy is a new novel from Southern writer Jeffrey Roach that recounts the heartwarming and hilarious tale of how he and his partner Ken started a family in one of the unlikeliest places. The book takes place in the early 2000s, when single parent adoptions were the only way for a gay couple to adopt a baby from Guatemala and begins when the couple's best friend announces she's pregnant. Ken wants a baby too. What follows is a whirlwind eighteen-month journey that takes them from Dallas to Guatemala and back, as they work to bring baby Jackson home to meet his big, extended family. Along the way they discover that being "out" takes on a new urgency when the duo becomes a trio and that the word family is broad enough to include them. An excerpt from Chapter 6: ""Maybe we should go to Guatemala." "And try to smuggle him back home? That sounds crazy, even for me." "No, silly. We aren't going to try to bring him back, but at least we can visit with him. Hold him. I don't know about you but I'm tired of only knowing our son through other people's pictures of him." Yes, I totally swooned when he said our son. He was right, we had seen lots and lots of pictures. Each new arrival would be carefully inspected for minor changes in our son, and then dutifully sent along to friends and family. This, in turn, would generate a flood of email conversation between us and them: Is his hair getting longer? Look how black his eyes appear in this one! Isn't he handsome? Each picture was like another little stitch into the fabric of our lives that pulled him closer to us; he was no longer Carlos Enrique, an orphaned child in Guatemala, but Baby Jackson. And with each passing picture Baby Jackson became a little more firmly entrenched, not only in our lives, but also in the lives of the people who mattered most to us. "I think we should go see him. Go make sure that he's doing alright; make sure he knows that we are waiting for him." Ken was already convinced enough for the two of us."

This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Rise and Fall of American Art, 1940s-1980s, Catherine Dossin challenges the now-mythic perception of New York as the undisputed center of the art world between the end of World War II and the fall of the Berlin Wall, a position of power that brought the city prestige, money, and historical recognition. Dossin reconstructs the concrete factors that led to the shift of international attention from Paris to New York in the 1950s, and documents how ‘peripheries’ such as Italy, Belgium, and West Germany exerted a decisive influence on this displacement of power. As the US economy sank into recession in the 1970s, however, American artists and dealers became increasingly dependent on the support of Western Europeans, and cities like Cologne and Turin emerged as major commercial and artistic hubs - a development that enabled European artists to return to the forefront of the international art scene in the 1980s. Dossin analyses in detail these changing distributions of geopolitical and symbolic power in the Western art worlds - a story that spans two continents, forty years, and hundreds of actors. Her transnational and interdisciplinary study provides an original and welcome supplement to more traditional formal and national readings of the period.

Book excerpt: Two giant mystical devil dogs with mystical powers and unwilling caretakers have been roaming the earth freely for centuries, undetectable by man. These hellish abominations’ only purpose is to spread and perpetuate the pure essence of hate, anger, division, selfishness, resentment, unforgivingness, malice, and all the lower characteristics of the human spirit by biting their victims—never killing anyone physically but totally decimating and destroying the heart, mind, and soul of their victims horribly and totally beyond repair. They are always accompanied by one member of that cursed and unwilling resentful bloodline family of caretakers who abhor and utterly despises everything that has to do with the dogs, bound to the hounds only by a supernatural generational curse. Unwillingly, they have attended only to the dogs’ mortal needs down through the last four centuries and no more. And now, through some miraculous twist of fate, soon, they are unbeknownst to them. They will be totally lifted of that burden for good. So read on and see how the Brune family finally free themselves from the curse of the HATE HOUNDS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First uno and foremost thank -U- all glory be to God/and his magnificent son Jesus. About the book. As I stated somewhere in these stories turned testimonies, when the thought crossed my mind to write the newly fashioned devotional book, whether I was watching television, eating or doing some female stuff, bathing dressing, getting to mama’s or chilling on our front porch, should I wear this or that? The ensemble was well put together. I did not feel like trying to know if I could style my hair this way or that, and left it to its own mind, and went forward in the day. And after checking me out @ home, and then again for confirmation quickly checking me out as I passed someone’s parked car, and accepted for eternity you are a negro gypsy hippy bottomline, leave your hair as it is. It crossed my mind again, that you should write something concerning the new diversity and arguabaly that has actually been around since the beginning of time. Who is straight? Who is lgbtq? And whose business is it really? Not talking to myself yet out loud thoughts escaping my mind, and sheba baby was ignoring me she’d heard enough earlier. And you have enough praying concerning your own, and 14% give and take a % of us have had our shared experiences, male and female, and still thankful to have conceived and birth children, hello & hello. So yes, really speaking for the females in our family.Then it crossed my mind that I understood the difference between this and that and of the universe 40% of diseases and hopefully sooner than later cures.. Well we’d all have to go back to the beginning of time to hopefully understand just how many diseases occurred in the land of purity. God's creation. Humans mess up. Only he knows and has the answer to what the words read. Personally I am good where I am in 2023. Oh my goodness gracious! God/Jesus got my attention early right about 2:30 am. Write what you are reading, and I was not nor will be the only one to wonder, or write about the touchy topic and you have experience, and have read Romans 1 uno:26 vienta y seis, and I laughed, cried and smiled and did some mellow shouting. I prayed he would answer and here we are. Inspired specifically by, and through Christ the one who created it and us all. Here we are, please enjoy every word and with much understanding. Continually praying for ourselves and as many as our hands, and hearts can handle. Peace and peacefulness unto us all peace on earth and more unity around the universe.

This book was released on 2014-06-16 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dazzling look at the artists working on the frontiers of science. In recent decades, an exciting new art movement has emerged in which artists utilize and illuminate the latest advances in science. Some of their provocative creations—a live rabbit implanted with the fluorescent gene of a jellyfish, a gigantic glass-and-chrome sculpture of the Big Bang (pictured on the cover)—can be seen in traditional art museums and magazines, while others are being made by leading designers at Pixar, Google’s Creative Lab, and the MIT Media Lab. In Colliding Worlds, Arthur I. Miller takes readers on a wild journey to explore this new frontier. Miller, the author of Einstein, Picasso and other celebrated books on science and creativity, traces the movement from its seeds a century ago—when Einstein’s theory of relativity helped shape the thinking of the Cubists—to its flowering today. Through interviews with innovative thinkers and artists across disciplines, Miller shows with verve and clarity how discoveries in biotechnology, cosmology, quantum physics, and beyond are animating the work of designers like Neri Oxman, musicians like David Toop, and the artists-in-residence at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. From NanoArt to Big Data, Miller reveals the extraordinary possibilities when art and science collide.

Download or read book Science, Fables and Chimeras written by Philippe Murillo and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of science provides numerous examples of the way in which imagination, religion and mythology have sometimes helped and sometimes hindered scientific progress. While established ideas and beliefs clearly held back the discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo and Darwin, the intuitive knowledge found in mythology, art and religion has often proved useful in indicating new ways in which to explore or represent new knowledge of the world. Stories, fables and images have contributed to drawing a fuller picture of the past, understanding the present and imagining the future. The essays in this book, written by academics, writers and artists from various fields ranging from La Fontaine’s fables to nanotechnology and modern art, all point out the ways in which imagination works its way into all the fields of knowledge. At both ends of the spectrum, the hybrid nature of the chimera emerges as a pivotal symbol of both man’s predation instinct and a powerful symbol of his fear of extinction. This interdisciplinary book, weaving together visual representation, literature, mysticism, and science, will appeal to historians of science, philosophy, art and religion. It will also be of interest to scholars in cultural studies and anthropology. Drawing on recent scientific research and artistic production, the volume will additionally interest a wider audience wishing to learn more about man’s obsession and fascination with the potent symbolism of dinosaurs and dragons and all hybrid forms generated by the human imagination and recent technology.

Download or read book Applied Arts in British Exile from 1933 written by Marian Malet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yearbook Volume 19 continues an investigation which began with Arts in Exile in Britain 1933-45 (Volume 6, 2004). Twelve chapters, ten in English and two in German, address and analyse the significant contribution of émigrés across the applied arts, embracing mainstream practices such as photography, architecture, advertising, graphics, printing, textiles and illustration, alongside less well known fields of animation, typography and puppetry. New research adds to narratives surrounding familiar émigré names such as Oskar Kokoschka and Wolf Suschitzky, while revealing previously hidden contributions from lesser known practitioners. Overall, the volume provides a valuable addition to the understanding of the applied arts in Britain from the 1930s onwards, particularly highlighting difficulties faced by refugees attempting to continue fractured careers in a new homeland. Contributors are: Rachel Dickson, Burcu Dogramaci, Deirdre Fernand, Fran Lloyd, David Low, John March, Sarah MacDougall, Anna Nyburg, Pauline Paucker, Ines Schlenker, Wilfried Weinke, and Julia Winckler.

This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scottish zoologist D'Arcy Wentworth Thompson's visionary ideas in On Growth and Form continue to evolve a century after its publication, aligning it with current developments in art and science. Practitioners, theorists, and historians from art, science, and design reflect on his ongoing influence. Overall, the anthology links evolutionary theory to form generation in both scientific and cultural domains. It offers a close look at the ways cells, organisms, and rules become generative in fields often otherwise disconnected. United by Thompson's original exploration of how physical forces propel and shape living and nonliving forms, essays range from art, art history, and neuroscience to architecture, design, and biology. Contributors explore how translations are made from the discipline of biology to the cultural arena. They reflect on how Thompson's study relates to the current sciences of epigenesis, self-organization, biological complex systems, and the expanded evolutionary synthesis. Cross-disciplinary contributors explore the wide-ranging aesthetic ramifications of these sciences. A timeline links the history of evolutionary theory with cultural achievements, providing the reader with a valuable resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's an alarming moment when it dawns on parents that their child is in trouble. And if you aren't perceptive you may never know until you find a half-smoked marijuana joint in a jeans pocked on laundry day or a sexy love note left inadvertently on a dresser or a citation from the police. In times like these, when children are making adult decisions that are often devastatingly destructive, parents must examine the facts and learn how to be what their kids need them to be before it's too late.
