This book will be a collection (curated by John Foster) of the best hand-crafted design out there from all corners of the globe. This kind of collection will connect with designers on a gut level and it will be the ultimate collection of this type (and era) of work. For those that look to these books for inspiration this will provide that not only for their work in the office but also their personal bursts of creativity. But this book is not limited to designers who work on their own or do jobs on the side. Global corporations have begun to embrace this mode of design to create a more authentic experience for consumers who are bombarded with computer-generated art on a daily basis, so all designers — whether they work in-house at a large company or at a design studio — must get ready for a new more authentic design revolution.

Rock 'n' Roll Myths
|
Rockport Publishers
|
Автор: Durchholz Daniel Издательство: Rockport Publishers, 2012 |
PDF, 240 страниц, 7.20 МБ
|
It's perhaps the relative modernity of rock 'n' roll that makes the genre a minefield of myths and legends accepted as truth. History hasn't had time to dissect the bunk. Until now. Discover the real stories behind rock's biggest crocks, how they came to be but why they have persisted. Did Cass Elliott really asphyxiate herself with a ham sandwich? Did the Beatles spark a spliff in Buckingham? Did Willie Nelson do the same in the White House? Did Keith Richards get a complete oil change at a Swiss clinic in 1973 to pass a drug test necessary to embark on an American tour with the Stones? Then there's the freaky (did Michael Jackson own the remains of the Elephant Man?), the quasi-medical (Rod Stewart and that stomach pump?), the culinary (did Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne really do all those things to bats, chickens, etc. onstage?), and the apocryphal (did Robert Johnson sell his soul to the Prince of Darkness in exchange for mastery of the blues?). In all, more than 50 enduring lies are examined, explained, and debunked.

Star Trek
|
Rockport Publishers
|
Автор: Greenberger Robert Издательство: Rockport Publishers, 2012 |
PDF, 256 страниц, 7.68 МБ
|
This is the first book to combine an authoritative history of the Star Trek franchise — including all six television series and eleven feature films — with anecdotes about the show from those who helped shape it from the outside in: the fans. Star Trek expert Robert Greenberger covers everything from show creator Gene Roddenberry's initial plans for a series combining science-fiction and Western elements, the premiere of the original series in 1966, its cancellation, the franchise's return in an animated series, and its subsequent history on television and film, up to expectations for the 2013 J.J. Abrams film. Along the way, Greenberger analyzes Star Trek 's unique cultural impact and tremendous cult following, including the famous (and first ever) save-the-show mail campaign. But this isn't a sugarcoated history; this book chronicles the missteps as well as the achievements of Roddenberry and others behind the franchise. Approximately two dozen sidebars provide personal experiences of dedicated Trekkies who influenced or became a part of the franchise. Star Trek fandom is unparalleled in the effects it has had on the franchise itself. The book is illustrated with a large collection of photographs of memorabilia, many of which have never been seen before in print.
