Book Synopsis Spiral to the Stars by : Laura Harjo
Download or read book Spiral to the Stars written by Laura Harjo and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All communities are teeming with energy, spirit, and knowledge, and Spiral to the Stars taps into and activates this dynamism to discuss Indigenous community planning from a Mvskoke perspective. This book poses questions about what community is, how to reclaim community, and how to embark on the process of envisioning what and where the community can be. Geographer Laura Harjo demonstrates that Mvskoke communities have what they need to dream, imagine, speculate, and activate the wishes of ancestors, contemporary kin, and future relatives—all in a present temporality—which is Indigenous futurity. Organized around four methodologies—radical sovereignty, community knowledge, collective power, and emergence geographies—Spiral to the Stars provides a path that departs from traditional community-making strategies, which are often extensions of the settler state. Readers are provided a set of methodologies to build genuine community relationships, knowledge, power, and spaces for themselves. Communities don’t have to wait on experts because this book helps them activate their own possibilities and expertise. A detailed final chapter provides participatory tools that can be used in workshop settings or one on one. This book offers a critical and concrete map for community making that leverages Indigenous way-finding tools. Mvskoke narratives thread throughout the text, vividly demonstrating that theories come from lived and felt experiences. This is a must-have book for community organizers, radical pedagogists, and anyone wishing to empower and advocate for their community.

Book excerpt: An accessible, informative guide to identifying constellations and other incredible features of the sky, whether you’re hiking, camping, or stargazing from your backyard. Discover the Stars leads you on a tour of all the stars and constellations visible with the naked eye and introduces you to deep-sky objects that can be seen with binoculars or a simple telescope. The tour is conducted by the editor of Astronomy magazine, Richard Berry, whose two-color, computer-plotted sky maps and clear instructions make stargazing fun and productive from your first night out. The heart of Discover the Stars is two sections of big, beautiful sky maps and charts. The first section features twelve maps that show the entire sky overhead as it appears during each month of the year. These outline all the constellations visible anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, and the accompanying text reveals the rich ancient mythology that surrounds the star groups. The second section is made up of twenty-three star charts that depict smaller regions of the sky in great detail. These charts give the names of key stars and lead you to fascinating features such as stars with unusual colors, double stars, variable stars, nebulae, and galaxies. Separate chapters cover basics, such as how the stars move through the sky, how to find your way around the moon and the planets, making an astronomer's flashlight, and choosing and using a telescope—all in terms that are easy to grasp and remember. Discover the Stars is the perfect introduction to the heavens, simple enough to be useful if you're just starting out but packed with enough information to keep you learning and enjoying the stars for years to come.

Book Synopsis The Perfect Shape by : Øyvind Hammer
Download or read book The Perfect Shape written by Øyvind Hammer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses the spiral shape as a key to a multitude of strange and seemingly disparate stories about art, nature, science, mathematics, and the human endeavour. In a way, the book is itself organized as a spiral, with almost disconnected chapters circling around and closing in on the common theme. A particular strength of the book is its extremely cross-disciplinary nature - everything is fun, and everything is connected! At the same time, the author puts great emphasis on mathematical and scientific correctness, in contrast, perhaps, with some earlier books on spirals. Subjects include the mathematical properties of spirals, sea shells, sun flowers, Greek architecture, air ships, the history of mathematics, spiral galaxies, the anatomy of the human hand, the art of prehistoric Europe, Alfred Hitchcock, and spider webs, to name a few.

Book Synopsis The Sacred Language of the Stars by : Peter Trutmann
Download or read book The Sacred Language of the Stars written by Peter Trutmann and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-08 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK: What if geometric motifs in pre-Columbian American art, long dismissed as merely decorative, hold meaning of astronomical time and ancient cosmovision? In The Sacred Language of the Stars, Dr. Peter Trutmann shares compelling scholarly evidence for this conclusion, culminating in a preliminary dictionary of geometric symbols, and demonstrations of how the three motifs can be used to read richer meaning in complex visual scenes written by ancient Peruvian and Mesoamerican cultures.The book begins with a background on the curious lack of systematic research of these motifs, despite their prevalence in much of the art of pre-Columbian Americans from the south of South America through to North America, and proceeds to the analysis of three motifs: the stair-like stepped motif, the spiral motif, and the triangle motif, which are displayed on the cover of the book. The hypothesized meanings are verified using 'Rosetta Stone'-like scenes featuring the motifs and cross-checked with computer-based astronomic information and early writings.After half a millennium of destruction, suppression, and dismissal of indigenous culture knowing the meaning of these motifs provides new tools to help us interpret history from the perspective of the ancient Americans and gives them back a voice. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr. Peter Trutmann is a scientist by training. He is author of numerous peer reviewed papers, reviews and books and has worked for well-known universities including Cornell University in the USA, the ETH-Zurich in Switzerland, La Trobe University in Australia and international research organizations. His research frequently connects with ancient and traditional knowledge. From an early professional age he incorporated anthropological approaches into biological research to provide insights into the complexity of constraints on local systems of food production and perceptions of indigenous farmers. Over the last ten years he has been investigating key neglected themes in the Andes with the Swiss NGO, Global Mountain Action. Part of this effort includes a quest to better understand the meaning of the mysterious geometric motifs used from South to North America that until now have been largely overlooked, but which provide insight into the minds, cosmovision and communication of Ancient Americans.
