Summary:
"Designed for Habitat presents potent evidence of the link between design and dignity, particularly in the context of low-income housing. It captures a crucial trifecta of perspectives - Habitat for Humanity leaders, homeowners, and designers. Their powerful, sometimes explosive stories aren't sugarcoated by Hinson and Miller; the pair makes clear that these collaborations present huge challenges for often-opposing cultures, but can yield unprecedented payoffs. With America's housing in a perpetual state of crisis, such partnerships are more important than ever. This highly-instructive, landmark book is an unmatched guide for future collaborations. It communicates so clearly and so convincingly to Habitat and its homeowners that they too deserve good design; indeed, we all do." -John Cary, Author, The Power of Pro Bono; Founder & Editor, PublicInterestDesign.org

Most of the photographs were taken in the busiest parts of Manhattan (Penn Station, China Town, Times Square) between 2009 and 2011. At the first look, the photographs might seem boring and dull. In a way The Present is about nothingness, "nothing moments of life". The present is a period of time between the past and the future, also referred to as now. The images capture the same places, shot from the same position, with just few moments apart. While the street photography is about a perfect frozen moment, Paul Graham shifts it by creating a combinations before/after.

Summary:
Part of the Architectural Papers series, The Middle East explores the architecture of a nearly paradoxical region. Both the cradle of culture, where much remains of thousands of years of human society, the Middle East is also an area of great flux in contemporary history. This volume explores this dichotomy in three sections. The first, “Beyond the View,” investigates notions of the Middle Eastern architecture through a comparative study of different parts of the Arab world. “Case Studies” focuses on three exceptionally different cities—Beirut, Amman, and Doha—through an investigation of recent and future building projects. The final chapter, “Limits” looks at the architectural practices of countries that constitute the geographic, cultural, and political limits of the region: Israel, Turkey, and Iran.

Les punks des années 70 ont désormais fait place aux cyberpunks. Eux aussi proclament un "No Future" mais inversé : "Nous avons déjà demain, c'est aujourd'hui que nous voulons." Loin de n'être qu'un sous-genre de la science-fiction, le Cyberpunk est un véritable phénomène culturel. Il essaime dans tous les modes d'expression, de la musique à la bande dessinée en passant(...)

Loin de n'être qu'un sous-genre de la science-fiction, le Cyberpunk est un véritable phénomène culturel. Il essaime dans tous les modes d'expression, de la musique à la bande dessinée en passant par le jeu vidéo ou mieux encore le cinéma, où il excelle. Dans cet univers, "le dingue d'informatique et le rocker se rejoignent". Mark Downham cartographie cette nébuleuse en effervescence. Il en dessine l'esthétique et dissèque la genèse du phénomène, en le rapportant à la critique du spectacle de Debord, ici étendue à l'emprise de la technologie sur la vie quotidienne.

Summary:
Kristin Ross’s new work on the thought and culture of the Communard uprising of 1871 resonates with the motivations and actions of contemporary protest, which has found its most powerful expression in the reclamation of public space. Today’s concerns —internationalism, education, the future of labor, the status of art, and ecological theory and practice — frame and inform her carefully researched restaging of the words and actions of individual Communards. This analysis of an event and its centrifugal effects brings to life the workers in Paris who became revolutionaries, the significance they attributed to their struggle, and the elaboration and continuation of their thought in the encounters that transpired between the insurrection’s survivors and supporters like Marx, Kropotkin, and William Morris.

Summary:
Bridges can be high or low, long or short, straight or curvy. Some are designed to blend in, while others stand out. But each one tells a story: a reminder of our history, a testament to ingenuity and engineering, an invitation to imagine the possibilities of the future. Literally and symbolically, bridges connect us—to new places, new cultures, and new people. With(...)

But each one tells a story: a reminder of our history, a testament to ingenuity and engineering, an invitation to imagine the possibilities of the future. Literally and symbolically, bridges connect us—to new places, new cultures, and new people. With poetic text and sweeping illustrations, Marc Majewski delivers a unique, accessible look at bridges all around the world: from San Francisco’s incredible Golden Gate to the Victoria Falls Bridge connecting Zambia and Zimbabwe to England’s Tower Bridge and Japan’s Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge and many in between. Both informational and thought-provoking, ''Bridges'' shows how these awe-inspiring structures unite the manmade and natural worlds, and how they bring humanity together.

Summary:
The research exhibition ''BioMedia: The age of media with life-like behavior'' at ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe presents works that intersect the realms of art, science, and technology. The media systems on show, which range from digital, computer-generated, and computer-simulated systems to complex adaptive robots and interactive installations, simulate various different aspects of life beyond movement and raise fundamental questions about the interaction between human and non-human beings and what inorganic life might mean in the future. The term ''BioMedia'' or biomimetic media is used here to refer to media that exhibit life-like forms of behaviour. Over sixty artists have contributed works illustrating the exhibition themes. The book accompanying the show focuses on the artworks, which are described in detail in richly illustrated texts.
