Description:

A computer in your pocket…

In this book, Professor Asimov, noted scientist, teacher, and author introduces the reader to the delights of the slide rule. "A slide rule," he says, "doesn’t seem as impressive as a giant electronic computer, but it has many advantages. It is small enough to put in your pocket, it need not cost more than a couple of dollars, it can’t go out of order, and, best of all, it can solve almost any numerical problem that you meet up with under ordinary circumstances. To add to all that, it is simple to operate. If you know grade-school arithmetic, you can use a slide rule, even though you may not quite see how it works!"

With his ususal enthusiasm and talent for making both entertaining and understantable, Professor Asimov explains the principles of the slide rule. Once you thoroughly understand these principles – once you know what you are doing and why – it will be simple to use the slide rule on problems that arise from day to day.

Title: Sketching methods
Author: Sweeney, Walter Campbell, 1876- [from old catalog]
Language: angielski
Year: 2023
Subjects: Architecture, Nonfiction
Publisher: Rockport Publishers
ISBN: 9780760380611
Total pages: 54

Description:

Take an expansive and provocative tour of architectural theory and practice, exploring everything from basic concepts to speculative design and subversive interventions.
Universal Principles of Architecture illustrates in 100 concepts the importance, possibilities, challenges, and roles that architecture plays in shaping the world. This radical and perhaps surprising survey is divided into five sections: Archetypes, Methods, Conditions, Relationships, and Imaginaries. And, each of the five sections in the book introduces in 20 principles architecture at different scales and stages of the design process.

Through an inclusive and holistic approach, the book refers to initial design ideas, creative design approaches, reflections on the effects of the built and destroyed environments, and architectural desires and aspirations to transform the world and engage with the cosmos.
Because architecture is the converging point where many fields of knowledge, ideas, forms, approaches, methods, sensibilities, and materials meet, the book provides a flexible and dynamic space where the material, conceptual, and social take shape.

Written, illustrated, and designed by critically acclaimed architects, educators, and authors Cruz Garcia and Nathalie Frankowski of WAI Architecture Think Tank, Universal Principles of Architecture combines accessible writing with otherworldly images like the ones they have displayed in exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou Metz, Museum of Modern Art New York, Neues Museum Nuremberg, and Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology Lisbon.

The principles include:

  • Figurative Archetypes
  • Parasitic Architecture
  • Diagramming
  • Modelling
  • Three-Dimensional Printing
  • Carbon Neutral
  • Biomimicry
  • Inclusive Design
  • Participatory Design
  • AI Cities
  • Queer Cartographies
  • Intergalactic Architecture

    Intended as an intergenerational and transdisciplinary reference volume, the book presents an ambitious overview of what architecture has been and can be in a world full of urgent challenges and abundant opportunities for social and ecological responsibility, and design creativity.
    This book will challenge your preconceived notions of what architecture is and how it can be used.
    The titles in the Rockport Universal series offer comprehensive and authoritative information and edifying and inspiring visual examples on multidisciplinary subjects for designers, architects, engineers, students, and anyone who is interested in expanding and enriching their design knowledge.

    Description:

    The landscape oil sketch first appeared in British art in the 177os and flourished during the first two decades of the nineteenth century, pioneered by J.M.W. Turner and John Constable. By the i8ios the widespread habit of painting in oil and watercolour from nature had led some British landscape painters to aspire to create a direct naturalism of a kind unprecedented in the history of British art, though by the 1820s the practice of taking oil paints into the countryside had effectively disappeared. This book explores the development, variety and innovation of this important phenomenon. Taking oil paints into the countryside was something very new for British art. So were the ways in which Regency artists pursued this type of study. These departures are explored in detail here by art historians Michael Rosenthal and Anne Lyles, alongside full-colour illustrations of ninety oil paintings from Tate’s substantial collection.

    Description:

    "One of country music’s greatest songwriters has given us his own private tour of the collective genius of his profession." -Malcolm Gladwell, bestselling author and host of the Revisionist History podcast

    Bobby Braddock, the only living songwriter to have written number-one country songs in five consecutive decades, celebrates standout lines in more than eighty country masterpieces. Unique stories give the reader a behind-the-scenes look at classics from Hank Williams, Bill Anderson, Roger Miller and Merle Haggard, as well as twenty-first-century icons like Alan Jackson, Taylor Swift and Eric Church. Artist Carmen Beecher brings these tales to vivid life with strikingly realistic illustrations of seldom-seen songwriters, easily recognizable superstars and unforgettable song characters. From late 1940s jukebox hits to present-day chart toppers, Braddock and Beecher offer a magical journey from the songwriter’s pen to the singer’s lips to the listener’s ear.

    "Country Music’s Greatest Lines works as an insider’s take on the business of country, and it also sent me to a dozen records I wanted to hear immediately. Braddock and Beecher evoke the mythology of country without sentimentalizing the music or its creators. It’s a remarkable achievement." –Nashville Scene

    "We see how stand-alone powerful and effective a few well-crafted lines can be, even when removed from the context of the entire song." Sounds Like Nashville

    "Country songs, from Hank Williams till today, remain faithful to their tradition of reminding their listeners about the life they live. Braddock, a 60-year creator of songs, remembered that when he decided to write this book." –American Songwriter

    Learn how to draw a multitude of menacing monsters, creepy cryptids, and gruesome ghouls in this step-by-step drawing guide.
    Shh. Did you hear that? That must have just been the wind rustling the leaves of the trees overhead-or could it have been Bigfoot?
    (Definitely Bigfoot.)
    Cryptids are animals whose legends are spread far and wide at slumber parties, sleepaway campfires, or on internet webpages you stumble across at 2 a.m. Their existence has never been confirmed by science but that doesn’t make them any less fascinating! In Cryptid Creatures, learn how to draw 35 different types of cryptids from all around the world and pick up a thing or two about their origins as well.
    For artists of all skill levels, this step-by-step drawing book will show you how to sketch basic shapes and forms as well as use shading techniques to help your drawings come alive. Learn to draw such creatures as:

  • Bigfoot, aka Sasquatch, the iconic cryptid said to inhabit the Pacific Northwest of North America
  • The Loch Ness Monster, the underwater sea creature said to lurk in the depths of Scotland’s Loch Ness. Affectionately known as Nessie.
  • The Mongolian Death Worm, a gigantic worm that allegedly lives in the most remote reaches of the Gobi Desert. Probably wants a friend.
  • The Bunyip, a creature of ambiguous description stated to haunt bodies of water in Australia.
  • Mothman, the classic harbinger of doom.
  • . . . And more!
    This book also provides guidance on cryptid anatomy so you can create your own, unique cryptids. With both drawing instruction and tales of global folklore to engage your mind, Cryptid Creatures will transport you to a world of shadows and spookiness that will have you producing "realistic" illustrations with a touch of the fantastical in no time flat.

    “The style of this book is loose and easy, about having fun, and learning to work within the confines of black and white rather than depending on color.” –Art Elements

    Working with only positive and negative lines and shapes keeps the focus on the basics: composition, balance, and harmony. And using white and black gel, ink, and paint pens on black, tan, and gray papers allows you to experience drawing in a whole new way! Drawing in Black & White is a clever drawing and design book that contains 36 inspiring exercises and a gallery of artwork. Follow the tips and draw on black, gray, and tan paper to learn how different colored papers can make simple images pop. You’ll find lessons on drawing, pattern drawing, drawing with cut paper, and simple collage. Learn to see your drawings a new way by drawing in black and white!

    “While confined to only two colors, black and white, this guide’s techniques, materials, and tools are not nearly so limited . . . Readers with some experience drawing and painting are the best audience for this guide, but there is plenty here for beginners and advanced artists, too.” –Library Journal

    “The goal of the book is to let you be familiar with black and white media, to draw and have fun . . . It’s a fun activity book for those who want to dabble with art.” –Parka Blogs
