Résumé:
The photographs in Geomancy were taken from October 2007 to November 2008, using an Olympus Stylus with color film. I had left New York for Beijing, where I lived on Xindong Lu, sometimes tutored English, and occasionally wrote a column called "Raw China" for Vice. The city embodied an almost too good to be true clichéd "otherness" with an overabundance of literally(...)

Résumé:
The photographs in Geomancy were taken from October 2007 to November 2008, using an Olympus Stylus with color film. I had left New York for Beijing, where I lived on Xindong Lu, sometimes tutored English, and occasionally wrote a column called "Raw China" for Vice. The city embodied an almost too good to be true clichéd "otherness" with an overabundance of literally foreign colors, textures, shapes, and structures. Put another way, China, and Beijing in particular, is extremely photogenic. The title comes from a reference to the Forbidden City in the accompanying story "The First Bus of Beijing" about riding the No. 1 bus. It couldn’t be more appropriate, as Geomancy is a concept taken very seriously in China that means "the art of placing or arranging buildings or other sites auspiciously."

Résumé:
This book documents the experiences of Montrealers past and present, creating a portrait of the storied city unlike any other. Drawn from the celebrated column in Maisonneuve magazine, this anthology features Canadian writers chronicling a quintessential part of local life. Narrated with the intimacy of journal entries, each letter bridges the playful and profound. In early dispatches, Melissa Bull ditches a boyfriend over pétanque in Parc Laurier; Sean Michaels watches Arcade Fire lose Battle of the Bands; Deborah Ostrovsky frets over the sublime sophistication of the Plateau’s French children. More recently, Ziya Jones spends a summer herding sheep through Parc du Pélican; Eva Crocker performs in a “fake orgasm choir” at the Rialto Theatre; and André Picard takes a pause from the pandemic by running up Mount Royal.

These pieces reveal a great deal about the city’s past and its rich store of historic dwellings. Along with exploring the deep and even mystical connections people feel to the place where they live, these pieces, taken as a whole, offer a mosaic of domestic life in one of the world’s most fascinating cities and a vivid portrait of the true meaning of home in the 21st-century metropolis.

In the nineteenth century, Marx rejected the notion of homo sapiens, offering instead homo faber to indicate how consciousness follows from the primary activity of making. Against this, a certain ludic tradition has imagined a homo ludens, humans defined through their relationship with games and play. Cabinet 45 features Joshua Glenn on H.G.

Résumé:
The Technical Schools complex in Groningen was designed in 1922 by the then director of technical education, civil engineer Jan Gerko Wiebenga, in collaboration with the Rotterdam architect Leendert Cornelis van der Vlugt. The original complex comprised a secondary and a junior secondary technical school plus two rows of workshops and laboratories and various outbuildings in between. Wiebenga’s decision to construct the schools in concrete was unusual in that at the time this method of construction was considered suitable only for industrial buildings. The materialization, column structure and window bands all gave the building an unprecedentedly modern appearance. Over the years, the buildings have been radically altered, partially demolished and extended. The Wiebenga complex has recently been renovated, restored and completely adapted to modern educational requirements. Every effort was made to enhance the identity of the original buildings of what is now officially recognized as a modern national monument and the architectural design of the conversion is closely related to the principles of the original concept.
