Opis - Na łamach tej książki, jej autor oficer-mechanik, od 39 lat pracujący na statkach morskich, z których ostatnich 23 spędził na jednostkach obcych bander, wprowadza Czytelników w zanikający już marynarski świat odległych, egzotycznych portów z ich specyficznym klimatem i znajdującymi się w nich tawernami i innymi przybytkami marynarskiej infrastruktury. Największymi jednak atutami książki są autentyczny, marynarski język, a także wierne oddanie atmosfery statku jako miejsca pracy, a przede wszystkim pływającego domu oraz problemów, filozofii życia, rozterek itp. jego mieszkańców " marynarzy. Zawarte w niej opowiadania, anegdoty, dialogi kipią nie tylko humorem, ale przede wszystkim skłaniają do zadumy, a nadto pełne są autentycznej morskiej wiedzy. Dodajmy, że opisywany przez Stanisława M. Szczepańskiego marynarski świat, jest już w zaniku. Dzisiaj uchował się on jedynie na niewielkich konwencjonalnych statkach, zawijających do małych, peryferyjnych portów. Tym większa chwała autorowi książki, że resztki tego specyficznego, marynarskiego klimatu, który przed laty był inspiracją dla wielu pisarzy " marynistów, stara się również dzisiaj zaprezentować Czytelnikom i uchronić od zapomnienia.

Image Ethics In Digital Age - 2212826370

Image Ethics In Digital Age University of Minnesota Press

Inne 1

Over the past quarter century, dramatic technological advances in the production, manipulation, and dissemination of images have transformed the practices of journalism, entertainment, and advertising as well as the visual environment itself. From digital retouching to wholesale deception, the media world is now beset by an unprecedented range of moral, ethical, legal, and professional challenges. Image Ethics in the Digital Age brings together leading experts in the fields of journalism, media studies, and law to address these challenges and assess their implications for personal and societal values and behavior. Among the issues raised are the threat to journalistic integrity posed by visual editing software; the monopolization of image archives by a handful of corporations and its impact on copyright and fair use laws; the instantaneous electronic distribution of images of dubious provenance around the world; the erosion of privacy and civility under the onslaught of sensationalistic twenty-four-hour television news coverage and entertainment programming; and the increasingly widespread use of surveillance cameras in public spaces. This volume of original essays is vital reading for anyone concerned with the influence of the mass media in the digital age. Contributors: Howard S.

Texturing Space Adocs

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Texture weaves and relates. It moves through things, holding them together, providing contours, shaping forms. This publication is an experimental and collaborative exploration of texture from an artistic, design and conceptual angle. Based on a year-long research process between Zurich and Hong Kong the book seeks to give an account of processes of texturing as practice and material effect in urban environments. Texture, we claim, is not a mere surface structure of built configurations but hints at the dynamic and processual nature of urban ecologies as expanded cartographies. As part of a research-creation seminar at Zurich University of the Arts a modular and mobile lab for engaging with urban textures was designed and used at different sites. These ex- plorations are reflected upon from different perspectives such as philosophy, design, sociology, sound, media studies, and literature. Each of these encounters becomes a texturing of its own kind. The publication addresses researchers, artists and designers interested in artistic and design research practices and methods from a transdisciplinary and process-oriented point of view. With contributions by Sher Doruff, Karmen Franinovic, Erin Manning, Brian Massumi, Toni Pape and others. Amélie Brisson-Darveau lives and works between Montreal and Hamburg. She received her MFA from Concordia University in the Fiber Art program. Her artistic projects aim at offering an alternative experience of the obscure and unseen elements of social environments by shaping them in volume and exploring their tangibility. Installation, drawings and performing actions are the mediums she privileges to make this experience accessi-ble. Her work has been shown in internationally. Christoph Brunner is Assistant Professor for Cultural Theory at Leuphana University Lüneburg. His research focuses on the politics of aesthetics in art, media and activism. He is currently working on a book project called "Activist Sense: Towards a Political Aesthetics of Experience."

Politics of Touch University of Minnesota Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Political philosophy has long been bound by traditional thinking about the body. Through an engagement with the state-centered vocabulary of this discipline, Politics of Touch examines the ways in which bodies continually run up against existing political structures. In this groundbreaking work, Erin Manning reconsiders how politics attempts to paralyze the body through the idea of the national body politic. In Politics of Touch, Manning develops a new way to conceive the role of the senses, and of touch in particular. Exploring concepts of violence, gender, sexuality, security, democracy, and identity, she traces the ways in which touch informs the body. In an original and expansive analysis of tango--a tactile, rhythmic, and improvisational dance--Manning asserts the necessity of considering the sensing body in motion in order to think about its political implications. With a fresh vision and an original theoretical basis, Manning shows the body as its own ontological category, and in doing so redefines our understanding of the sense of touch in philosophical and political terms. Erin Manning is assistant professor of fine arts at Concordia University and the author of Ephemeral Territories (Minnesota, 2003).
