Summary:
Dusk, the transitional hour bridging day and night, symbolizes the border between conscious and unconscious, light and dark or life and death. Further, in ancient Japanese culture, dusk was considered to be the time when one might encounter dark creatures. The images of "At dusk" are to visualize inner reality of a person who has been through change in her life, moving from one culture to another. While it is a personal project, it has a possibility to be collective, triggering similar evocative effects in a viewer’s mind. The images exist somewhere between reality and fantasy, and those often somber images are inspired by the fragmented memories of my childhood, long discarded fears and vaguely recalled nightmares.

Summary:
Born in Kiev in 1917, at the start of the Russian Revolution, Maya Deren died forty-four years later in New York City. In her brief life, she established herself as a pioneering experimental filmmaker, prolific writer, accomplished photographer, and crusader for a personal and poetic cinema.

Summary:

He peers into a vast body of information and images, and captures and re-photographs what he finds most interesting. He chooses the motif, he enlarges it, crops it and digitally manipulates it.

Summary:
Juan Hein has turned his fascination towards the realm of technology, mining the digital cloud instead of seeking clouds in the sky. He peers into a vast body of information and images, and captures and re-photographs what he finds most interesting. He chooses the motif, he enlarges it, crops it and digitally manipulates it. This process stretches the final image into something in between an almost classical etching, with strong sculptural aspects, and a deliberately pixelated digital meta-reality. By doing this, Hein points to the very origin of the picture – historically, technically and conceptually. In the age of fake news, the book is asking one simple question; is what you see true or false? Is it beauty or horror, a paraphrase of an illusive Chinese proverb or a meta-reality created by the mastermind. Hopefully the answer will remain in flux just as fluid and transient as the clouds themselves.

Summary:
This publication gathers a diversity of voices and perspectives with the aim of capturing methods and expressions of care and communal effort, as well as theoretical reflections on sympathy as a position of caring-for. While sympathy may carry connotations of charity, as that which acts from a distance, the publication underscores sympathy as what also enables forms of action and imagination. It is by way of sympathy that interconnectivity and interdependency are felt as well as made categorical, articulating a position of concern and collaboration especially beyond one's immediate relational circles. From interpersonal care to rhythms of collaboration and resistance, the publication offers reflections on how personal compassion and impersonal force can be deployed, lending to a disposition of solidarity and the crafting of unlikely companionships.

Originally published in 1756, "A treatise on civil architecture" is an architecture handbook in which Chambers explains the basics of the art of building, aiming "to collect into one volume what is now dispersed in a great many, and to select, from mountains of promiscuous Materials, a Series of Sound Precepts and good Designs." The guidebook is supplemented by texts andl illustrations of classical building types and their functions. Received with considerable acclaim upon its release, "A treatise on civil architecture" quickly became the most popular practical work on architecture in the English language and has since been republished several times.
