Description:

A celebration of amateurism by Erik Kessels, Complete Amateur explains how to let go of everything you know and embrace things you know nothing about.
Full of brilliant masterpieces by absolute beginners (and also by artists who have kept experimenting with a beginner’s approach),this photographic guide invites you to exercise your amateur muscle and escape the traps of professionalism. “Do it like you don’t know what you’re doing”, says Kessels, suggesting that going in blind is sometimes the only way to see clear.

Description:

"Hello, my name is Thomas Thwaites, and I have made a toaster." So begins The Toaster Project, the author’s nine-month-long journey from his local appliance store to remote mines in the UK to his mother’s backyard, where he creates a crude foundry. Along the way, he learns that an ordinary toaster is made up of 404 separate parts, that the best way to smelt metal at home is by using a method found in a fifteenth-century treatise, and that plastic is almost impossible to make from scratch. In the end, Thwaites’s homemade toaste, a haunting and strangely beautiful object, cost 250 times more than the toaster he bought at the store and involved close to two thousand miles of travel to some of Britain’s remotest locations. The Toaster Project may seem foolish, even insane. Yet, Thwaites’s quixotic tale, told with self-deprecating wit, helps us reflect on the costs and perils of our cheap consumer culture, and in so doing reveals much about the organization of the modern world.

Chase Soria

Every budding actor knows acting is a difficult gig. There will be grueling auditions and punishing rejections. If you’re lucky, there’ll be roles that pay the bills and even roles that won’t.

Roles we don’t believe in.

But that’s what acting is-acting as if we do believe in them.

So when the semester’s production project is announced and I’m cast as one of the leads, I’m ecstatic. A lot of responsibility, a lot of work, but I’m up for it. Even when I find out what my role is and who my partner is. Amos, the brooding James Dean wannabe, is my on-screen boyfriend. Which is great, except for the fact he hates me.

I can do this. It’s just acting.

Nothing more.

Amos Beddington

The 90s are back, apparently. 90210 and Friends, but with a reality TV spin, which means cameras following us around as if they’re capturing the everyday lives of Franklin U students.

Me, but not me.

Me, with no more than a character description, no script or screenplay. Method acting, being the character 24/7, not just when the cameras are rolling. With a campus boyfriend.

Method acting is immersive and intense, and it can be confusing if the lines begin to blur. I mean, I’ve dreamed of being with the irritatingly gorgeous and annoyingly popular Chase Soria, and now I have to be his on-screen boyfriend?

I’m a good actor, sure. But how can I be convincing when I’m not sure I can even convince myself?

Description:

Books are our first and most lasting form of information technology. Books preserve ideas, yes, but they also provoke new ones- they are true tools for thinking. In The Idea Machine, Joel J. Miller shows that books are one of the most important but overlooked factors in the making of our contemporary world. And they still have lessons to teach us.
Polls indicate reading is on the decline, but as we deal with concerns about artificial intelligence and social and political division, the history of the book offers a path of understanding and patterns for engagement. They can even help us navigate what’s coming next. Starting with the surge of book culture in ancient Athens and then moving through the centuries, from monks and militaries to rebellions and the Renaissance, and even to more modern-day implications of books as tools of liberation and the novel’s impact on our humanity, Miller highlights the features and functions that make books indispensable to cultural evolution. Subject to its own periods of technological upheaval and social unrest, the history of the book can point us away from failed past responses and toward more fruitful adaptations that will benefit us all. The Idea Machine reframes the history of the book as the eye-opening story of humanity’s first mobile information device. Books do more than record thinking; they serve as tools to facilitate it.
More than a history of the book as an object or a simple consideration of the literature it has contained, The Idea Machine is the history of the book as a technology that transformed the peoples and societies that embraced it, and which maintains a vital role in a world where technological advancements seem to render it obsolete and ideological division might render our shared future untenable.

Description:

Excerpt from On the Safe Abolition of Pain: In Labour and Surgical Operations, by Anæsthesia With Mixed Vapours

I have endeavoured to anticipate all the more common sources of danger in the anaesthetic process here indicated. By the mixed vapour method the depression resulting from pure chloroform is counteracted, and by my appa ratus the precise dose is not only estimated, but, by a simple contrivance, rendered incapable of passing into excess. The practitioner has but to look on the face of his instrument to see what is the nature of the vapour he is administering to his patient and this is so combined as to unite in itself a stimulant and a narcotic influence which are capable of alternation of intermixture and of relative adjustment with extreme facility and accuracy.

The system I have here advocated was briefly described in the Lancet for February loth of this year, and some extracts from my paper in that journal, with an account of my original instrument, are given in the body of this book.

All subsequent experience of this method of abolishing pain has confirmed the hope then expressed that we had in it an easy, agreeable, and safe anaesthetic process. May such be the experience also of all the future.
