Download or read book Humankind written by Timothy Morton and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A radical call for solidarity between humans and non-humans What is it that makes humans human? As science and technology challenge the boundaries between life and non-life, between organic and inorganic, this ancient question is more timely than ever. Acclaimed object-oriented philosopher Timothy Morton invites us to consider this philosophical issue as eminently political. In our relationship with nonhumans, we decide the fate of our humanity. Becoming human, claims Morton, actually means creating a network of kindness and solidarity with nonhuman beings, in the name of a broader understanding of reality that both includes and overcomes the notion of species. Negotiating the politics of humanity is the first crucial step in reclaiming the upper scales of ecological coexistence and resisting corporations like Monsanto and the technophilic billionaires who would rob us of our kinship with people beyond our species.

Download or read book Painting Miniature Female Figures written by Andrea Press and published by . This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Painting miniatures, though a relatively small sector, is one of the most widespread hobbies throughout the world. The modellers and painters prefer mainly military figures and model vehicles, closely followed by fantasy figures. However, painting female figures presents an alternative to these, taking second place among the preferences of many painters, perhaps due to a lack of knowledge or the difficulty it presents. From now on and thanks to this publication, all this is history.When painting a female figure, one should simply be familiar with the appropriate techniques in order to obtain the picturesque effects that portray finesse, avoiding sharp lights and shadows used on military figures. Airbrush techniques, almost always feared by the majority of painters, provide really surprising finishes that can later be applied to other types of tasks.The sensuality, glamour and eroticism that occasionally accompany female figures cannot be forgotten, making this publication an essential guide for overcoming the fear of this type of figure painting that can provide great satisfaction once the pieces are finished. This is undoubtedly a new style that breaks away from traditional techniques that are repeated in conventional figure painting.The publication is designed in a very visual way, accompanying the reader with brief and concise explanations on the use of different techniques, illustrative step-by-step processes. The examples described include how to paint figures ranging from 30mm fantasy miniatures to large scale figures, as well as specific techniques for simulating skin, hair, lips and everything that comprises the female figure as a whole, in which sensuality is a key factor.
