Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Surface and Apparition
Book SynopsisSurface is one of the most intensely debated topics in recent arts, humanities and social science scholarship. The changing technologies which manufacture the actual and virtual surfaces of today are radically altering our perception of thresholds and borders. In contrast to the responses to preceding industrial revolutions, contemporary concerns with surface seem preoccupied with its function of mediation or passage, rather than with that of separation or boundary. In Surface and Apparition, each chapter explores a different meaning and function of the material and immaterial qualities of ''surface''.Case studies include various surfaces from computer screens, ''artisanal'' engines and glass architecture to gauzy veils, the planetary surface of supply chain capitalism, and spatial embodiment in street markets. International scholars of design, architecture, film, media, fine art, fashion, textiles, silversmithing, woodworking and archival practices account for how the material Trade ReviewWe live, increasingly, in an age of surfaces - navigating our lives more and more via flat screens and fleeting appearances. Surface and Apparition provides a timely historical and theoretical viewpoint on this condition, through a series of inventive case studies. The book usefully challenges the stereotype of superficiality, showing that surfaces properly attended to can yield narratives of temporal and haptic subtlety. The volume is excitingly diverse in its contents, with respect to time period and geographical space, ranging from technology to hand craft. Nonetheless mounts a clear, powerful argument in favor of surface as an expressive, sensitive register of history. -- Glenn Adamson, Yale Center for British Art, USAThis is a truly remarkable and enjoyable, multidisciplinary investigation of surface. The details, insights, and theoretical explorations catch the imagination and open up important new avenues for thought and practice. The subtlety and nuance of this collection, each chapter providing unique haeccaties – those specific qualities that mark something as uniquely ‘it’ – that stay with the reader long after reading. This is an important work – for the student and scholar, but also for the inquisitive, the curious, and the reader who has always felt there must be something more to what meets the eye, the touch, the feel. -- Timothy Carroll, University College London, UKSurface and Apparition: The Immateriality of Modern Surface provides a coruscating assembly of reflections and arguments on the idea of the surface. The reader will come away astonished and invigorated by the density and depth of the ways in which different kinds of surface are brought to thought by the essays in Yeseung Lee's volume -- Steven Connor, University of Cambridge, UK‘Surface is now our becoming’ suggests Yeseung Lee in her introduction to this dazzlingly tactile exploration of surface by the collection of eminent makers and thinkers she has assembled for Surface and Apparition: The Immateriality of Modern Surface. Ground-breaking and provocative, the texts in this volume understand surface as both material and immaterial, concerned with transition and constant modification rather than with separation and boundaries. In our current climate where contact, transmission and diffusion are paramount concerns, this volume is both prophetic and essential reading -- Jonathan Faiers, University of Southampton, UKIn a dozen wide-ranging and provocative essays, representing as many distinct disciplinary perspectives, Surface and Apparition opens out onto the ways in which surfaces - from those of glass containers to the Earth itself - mediate multifaceted material and social dynamics. It shows that surfaces do more than contain or conceal; they are mutable ecologies encompassing multitudes, combinatory and often unstable processes composed as much of desire and thwarted intention as materials, means and design. -- Sandy Isenstadt, University of Delaware, USATable of ContentsList of Contributors Acknowledgements Prologue: Surface Matters, Giuliana Bruno (Harvard University, USA) Introduction, Yeseung Lee (De Montfort University, UK) 1.

John Catt Educational Ltd People, Pens and Paper: Fresh Ideas for Schools
Book SynopsisPeople, Pens & Paper is about creative and fresh ideas. It's not a creative rule book, but a suggestive guide of techniques and projects to make the creative process more fluid and more enjoyable for students. Often, it's our setting and mindset that determines creative output, so in order to be truly effective we need to set the scene, and that also includes within ourselves. At this initial stage of the process all we need are paper, pens and people - we keep it organic and focus on generating solutions without any interference. With the projects featured, there's a focus on seeking out solutions for our planet rather than profit and commercialism. These ideas are recorded in a simple sketch book. This book can then help form a 'portfolio' of concepts for each student, so not only do the ideas look to help our world, they also show initiative and entrepreneurial flair, useful for life beyond school. From a marketing campaign for a local charity through to looking at ways to solve traffic issues at a school, teachers will be able to use innovative projects to inspire and also foster habitual ways to conceptualise, be it written or doodled.Readers will find no rules or quick-fixes.People, Pens & Paper is all about the process.

Intellect Books Design and the Digital Humanities: A Handbook for
Book SynopsisThis is an essential practical guide for academics, researchers and professionals involved in the digital humanities, as well as designers working with them. It prepares readers from both fields for working together, outlining disciplinary perspectives and lessons learned from more than twenty years of experience, with over two dozen practical exercises. The central premise of the book is a timely one – that the twin disciplines of visual communication design and digital humanities (DH) are natural allies, with much to be gained for researchers, students and practitioners from both areas who are able to form alliances with those from the other side. The disciplines share a common fundamental belief in the extraordinary value of interdisciplinarity, which in this case means that the training, experience and inclinations from both fields naturally tend to coincide. The fields also share an interest in research that focuses on humanities questions and approaches, where the goal is to improve understanding through repeated observation and discussion. Both disciplines tend to be generative in nature, with the ultimate end in many cases of designing and creating the next generation of systems and tools, whether those be intended for dealing with information or communication. The interdisciplinary nature of this book is both a strength and a challenge. For those academics and practitioners who have worked with the other discipline, this will be a much-welcomed handbook of terminology, methods and activities. It will also be of interest to those who have read about, seen presented and used the outcomes of successful design and DH collaborations, and who might be interested in forming similar partnerships. However, for all they have in common, design and digital humanities also have significant differences. This book discusses these issues in the context of a variety of research projects as well as classroom activities that have been tried and tested. This book will provide both design and the digital humanities with a better mutual understanding, with the practical intention of working effectively together in ways that are productive and satisfying for everyone involved. Design education has a long history, a presence in many post-secondary institutions, and a robust market for educational and practice-based literature. The Digital Humanities community, in contrast, is much younger, but rising rapidly, both academically and within industry. Both design and DH are collaborative disciplines, with much in common in terms of vision, but with confusing overlap in terminology and ways-to-practice. The book describes and demonstrates foundational concepts from both fields with numerous examples, as well as projects, activities and further readings at the end of each chapter. It provides complete coverage of core design and DH principles, complete with illustrated case studies from cutting-edge interdisciplinary research projects. Design and the Digital Humanities offers a unique approach to mastering the fundamental processes, concepts, and techniques critical to both disciplines. It will be of interest to those who have been following previous work by bestselling authors in the fields of visual communication design and the digital humanities, such as Ellen Lupton, Steven Heller, Julianne Nyhan, Claire Warwick and Melissa Terras. This guide is suitable for use as an undergraduate or masters-level text, or as an in-the-field reference guide. Throughout the book, terms or concepts that may not be familiar to all readers are carefully spelled out with examples so that the text is as accessible as possible to non-technical readers from a range of disciplines.Table of ContentsIntroduction Selling the Value of Design The Epistemological Modes of Knowledge Production Change is scary i) Territory of Possible Engagements ii) Moving the Goalposts What expertise looks like i) Who are Designers? ii) Who are the Digital Humanists? iii) What Expertise in Collaboration Looks Like EXERCISES: Meaning Creating understanding Defining DH i) What do Digital Humanists Do?
