Summary:
Great American writers—William Carlos Williams, Jonathan Edwards, Emily Dickinson, Noah Webster, Hart Crane, Wallace Stevens, Henry James — all in the physicality of their archival manuscripts — are the presiding spirits of Spontaneous Particulars: Telepathy of Archives. Also woven into Susan Howe’s newest book are beautiful photographs of embroideries and textiles from anonymous craftspeople.

Summary:
The world is filling with ever more kinds of media, in ever more contexts and formats. Glowing rectangles have become part of the scene; screens, large and small, appear everywhere. Physical locations are increasingly tagged and digitally augmented. Amid this flood, your attention practices matter more than ever. You might not be able to tune this world out. So it is worth remembering that underneath all these augmentations and data flows, fixed forms persist, and that to notice them can improve other sensibilities. In Ambient Commons, Malcolm McCullough explores the workings of attention through a rediscovery of surroundings.

Summary:
Google, Facebook, Amazon, mais aussi les banques et les assureurs : la constitution d’énormes bases de données (les « big data ») confère une place de plus en plus centrale aux algorithmes. L’ambition de ce livre est de montrer comment ces nouvelles techniques de calcul bouleversent notre société. À travers le classement de l’information, la personnalisation publicitaire, la recommandation de produits, le ciblage des comportements ou l’orientation des déplacements, les méga-calculateurs sont en train de s’immiscer, de plus en plus intimement, dans la vie des individus. Or, loin d’être de simples outils techniques, les algorithmes véhiculent un projet politique. Comprendre leur logique, les valeurs et le type de société qu’ils promeuvent, c’est donner aux internautes les moyens de reprendre du pouvoir dans la société des calculs.

Visuality for architects: architectural creativity and modern theories of perception and imagination
$32.00
(available to order)
Summary:
This book examines the ways in which new theories of human visuality create a different understanding of architectural design, practice, and education. This new understanding coincides with and supports formalist approaches to architecture that have become influential in recent years as a result of the digital revolution in architectural design.
