Résumé:
« Pro eto (De ça) », grand poème épique, est certainement le chef-d'œuvre de Maïakovski. Ecrit lors d'une période de crise amoureuse (il rencontre à ce moment-là des déconvenues dans sa relation avec Lili Brik), mais aussi politique (avec la naissance de la NEP, c'est la question du devenir de la Révolution russe qui se pose), il fait surtout l'aveu d'une crise poétique profonde et magnifique. Ce poème est augmenté de trois autres longs poèmes, La flûte des vertèbres, j'aime, qui est une autobiographique lyrique et heureuse, et Lénine. Commencé avant la mort de Lénine et achevé après, Maïakovski y réaffirme son attachement à la Révolution et son refus de toute forme d'idolâtrie. Le Temps des Cerises réunit donc ces trois textes accompagné des collages de Rodtchenko, emblématiques du constructivisme russe, et de reproductions des éditions originales des poèmes de Maïakovski.

Résumé:
After a meteoric rise, China today is one of the world’s most powerful nations. Just a century ago, it was a crumbling empire with literacy reserved for the elite few, as the world underwent a massive technological transformation that threatened to leave them behind. In Kingdom of Characters, Jing Tsu argues that China’s most daunting challenge was a linguistic one: the century-long fight to make the formidable Chinese language accessible to the modern world of global trade and digital technology. 'Kingdom of characters' follows the bold innovators who reinvented the Chinese language, among them an exiled reformer who risked a death sentence to advocate for Mandarin as a national language, a Chinese-Muslim poet who laid the groundwork for Chairman Mao’s phonetic writing system, and a computer engineer who devised input codes for Chinese characters on the lid of a teacup from the floor of a jail cell. Without their advances, China might never have become the dominating force we know today.

Résumé:
Things in life tend to fall apart. Cars break down. Buildings fall into disrepair. Personal items deteriorate. Yet today’s researchers are exploiting newly understood properties of matter to program materials that physically sense, adapt, and fall together instead of apart. These materials open new directions for industrial innovation and challenge us to rethink the way we build and collaborate with our environment. "Things fall together" is a provocative guide to this emerging, often mind-bending reality, presenting a bold vision for harnessing the intelligence embedded in the material world. Drawing on his pioneering work on self-assembly and programmable material technologies, Skylar Tibbits lays out the core, frequently counterintuitive ideas and strategies that animate this new approach to design and innovation. From furniture that builds itself to shoes printed flat that jump into shape to islands that grow themselves, he describes how matter can compute and exhibit behaviors that we typically associate with biological organisms, and challenges our fundamental assumptions about what physical materials can do and how we can interact with them. Intelligent products today often rely on electronics, batteries, and complicated mechanisms. Tibbits offers a different approach, showing how we can design simple and elegant material intelligence that may one day animate and improve itself—and along the way help us build a more sustainable future.

Of all of the Brazilian modernist Oscar Niemeyer’s many built works, his Algerian projects are among the least well known.

Résumé:
Of all of the Brazilian modernist Oscar Niemeyer’s many built works, his Algerian projects are among the least well known. Beginning in 1968, Algeria’s President Houari Boumediene commissioned Niemeyer to build two universities and an Olympic sports hall, as well as a series of large-scale, never-realized projects across Algeria, in an attempt to forge a modernist, independent nation. In 2013, Jason Oddy produced an in-depth photographic survey of these buildings as they exist in Algeria today. This publication collects those images alongside archival documents and Oddy’s further research into Niemeyer’s Algerian work in order to explore the revolutionary politics that inspired and formed these buildings.
