Acclaimed designer Chip Kidd brings his unique sensibility to this seminal address in this gorgeous edition that commemorates Gaiman's inspiring message.

Book The Necessity of Errors

Download or read book The Necessity of Errors written by John Roberts and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truth and error are interdependent; claims to truth can be made only in the light of previous error. In The Necessity of Errors, John Roberts explores how, up to Hegel, emphasis was placed on error as something that dissolves truth and needs to be eradicated. Drawing on the fragmented corpus of writing on error, from Locke to Luxemburg, Adorno to Vaneigem, and covering five key areas from philosophy to political praxis, this wide-ranging account explores how we learn from error, under what conditions, and with what means. Errors, Roberts finds, are productive, but not in any uniform sense or under all circumstances-a theory of errors needs a dialectics of error.

Book Error  Glitch  Noise  and Jam in New Media Cultures

Download or read book Error Glitch Noise and Jam in New Media Cultures written by Mark Nunes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divided into three sections, Error brings together established critics and emerging voices to offer a significant contribution to the field of new media studies. In the first section, "Hack," contributors explore the ways in which errors, glitches, and failure provide opportunities for critical and aesthetic intervention within new media practices. In the second section, "Game," they examine how errors allow for intentional and accidental co-opting of rules and protocols toward unintended ends. The final section, "Jam," considers the role of error as both an inherent "counterstrategy" and a mode of tactical resistance within a network society. By offering a timely and novel exploration into the ways in which error and noise "slip through" in systems dominated by principles of efficiency and control, this collection provides a unique take on the ways in which information theory and new media technologies inform cultural practice.

Book Muses of One Mind

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wesley Trimpi
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2009-11-01
  • ISBN : 1725227126
  • Pages : 434 pages

Download or read book Muses of One Mind written by Wesley Trimpi and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describing how ancient discussions of literature borrowed their descriptive terms from mathematical, philosophical, and rhetorical disciplines, Wesley Trimpi shows that when any one of these three types of discourse was sacrificed to one or both of the other two, the resulting imbalance proved destructive to literary discourse. Preoccupation with exhortatory (rhetorical) intention reduced literary works to displays of eloquence or ideology; preoccupation with cognitive (philosophical) intention led to didacticism; and preoccupation with formal (mathematical) excellence resulted in "aesthetic" expression for its own sake. In tracing the relationship of the three disciplines to literary discourse through the Middle Ages, this work diagnosis the increase of such reductive preoccupations after the Neoplatoic reconstruction of classical literary theory. Since 1600 these imbalances have continued to exist, obscured by proliferating and competing "theories" and "methods" of literary interpretation. Taking theoria in the ancient sense of "inclusive observation," Professor Trimpi points to an alternative to contemporary critical orthodoxies.

Book Unjustified Enrichment

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stephen Swann
  • Publisher : Walter de Gruyter
  • Release : 2010-03-12
  • ISBN : 3866538987
  • Pages : 776 pages

Download or read book Unjustified Enrichment written by Stephen Swann and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010-03-12 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Unjustified enrichment" is one of the three main non-contractual obligations dealt with in the DCFR. In recent years unjustified enrichment has been one of the most intellectually animated areas of private law. In an area of law whose territory is still partially uncharted and whose boundaries are contested, this volume of Principles of European Law will be invaluable for academic analysis of the law and its development by the courts. During the drafting process, comparative material from over 25 different EU jurisdictions has been taken into account. The work therefore is not only a presentation of a future model for European rules to come but provides also a fairly detailed indication of the present legal situation in the Member States.

  • Release : 2024-03-22
  • ISBN : 1003860672
  • Pages : 418 pages

Download or read book The Muse of Coding written by Richard Garfinkle and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-03-22 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives students and experienced programmers a way to see coding as an art and themselves as artists whose personal views, experiences, and ways of thinking can make their programs better for themselves and their users. This book shows in a good-humored and sympathetic way how the artistic and practical sides of programming are the same, delving into the methods of coding, the history of art, and the ways in which artists and audiences interact and benefit each other. Not confined to a single language or style of coding, this book provides a widely applicable framework for people to learn what languages and styles work best for them at present and as the field evolves. It can be used as a classroom text or for personal study and enrichment.
