Résumé:
Roger's Connection demonstrates the link between form and function in structures, both natural and man made. The magnetic connections allow an infinite number of angles to be made at each hub which are not locked into place. Without a locking mechanism, it is not possible to build artificially stable structures which stand by virtue of a rigid connection. Therefore(...)

Résumé:
Roger's Connection demonstrates the link between form and function in structures, both natural and man made. The magnetic connections allow an infinite number of angles to be made at each hub which are not locked into place. Without a locking mechanism, it is not possible to build artificially stable structures which stand by virtue of a rigid connection. Therefore Roger's Connection only allows forms to be erected which are stable due strictly to their form. A valuable lesson for aspiring architects, engineers and professionals concerned with structure.

David Parisi offers the first full history of haptic interface technologies, showing how the efforts of scientists and engineers over the past 300 years have gradually remade and redefined our sense of touch.

Résumé:
David Parisi offers the first full history of haptic interface technologies, showing how the efforts of scientists and engineers over the past 300 years have gradually remade and redefined our sense of touch. Through lively analyses of electrical machines, videogames, sex toys, sensory substitution systems, robotics, and human-computer interfaces, Parisi shows how the materiality of touch technologies has been shaped by attempts to transform human into more efficient processors of information.

The volume presents the most varied forms of exhibition buildings of the last decade and reveals their spatial and architectural concepts: from the white cube idea that exists chiefly to display the exhibit itself, to a flamboyant freestanding structure, which enriches the image of the city and involves the works in its dynamic spatial configuration. A broad diversity of museums is considered: museums of businesses and institutes, of technology and toys, of literature and architecture.

Résumé:
Drooping lazily over waterways, shading gardens, guarding hedgerows—the willow tree is a poetically formed plant, but also a practical one. For millennia, the wood of the willow has been used for baskets, furniture, fences, and toys, while finding its place in the watercolors of Monet, Shakespearean tragedies, Hans Christian Andersen, and The Lord of the Rings.

For millennia, the wood of the willow has been used for baskets, furniture, fences, and toys, while finding its place in the watercolors of Monet, Shakespearean tragedies, Hans Christian Andersen, and The Lord of the Rings. Telling the willow’s rich and multilayered tale, Alison Syme explores its presence in literature, art, and human history.

Résumé:
Bruno Munari (1907-1998) has been no doubt the most eclectic italian artist-designer. Since his very first experiences in the 30s among the artists of the Second Futurism, he always dedicated his creative activity to every form of “experimentation”, with a particular attention to the world of children and their games and toys. His works in the fields of painting, sculpture, design, photography and didactics cross their languages and poetics following the path of his very personal inventiveness.
