Download or read book O Meu Gravador de Sonhos written by Ana Rita Afonso and published by Chiado Editora. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À noite, enquanto dormes, o teu cérebro produz sonhos extraordinários, uns agradáveis outros nem tanto. E se tivesses uma máquina capaz de os gravar e de os exibir? Por mero acaso, numa feira de velharias, essa máquina acabou por vir parar às mãos do João Pedro, desencadeando-se a partir daí uma série de aventuras invulgares, contagiantes e imprevisíveis. O gravador de sonhos, considerado o objeto mais valioso do mundo, é muito cobiçado por perigosos bandidos, como os ladrões de sonhos. Prepara-te, tudo pode acontecer! ____________________ Aos pais, educadores e professores. É um livro que pensa muito nas “crianças e adolescentes digitais”, pouco atraídos pela leitura em suporte papel e cada vez mais dependentes da “realidade online” ou dos jogos eletrónicos. Procura-se seduzi-los. Os livros podem ser envolventes, divertidos e inesquecíveis. Criar a disponibilidade para ler um livro implica, entre outras, a capacidade para estar em ligação com o nosso mundo interno, relação que parece cada vez mais comprometida. A tónica descritiva pretende funcionar, também, como uma espécie de ilustração, com riqueza cromática e sem limites para o processo imaginativo. A liberdade e a criatividade estão convocadas para transformar a realidade – que aparece aqui contaminada pelo fantástico. Esta obra foi alvo de um “pré-teste” com oito crianças entre os dez e os quinze anos. Os resultados foram animadores.

Download or read book Beyond Caring written by Alexander Zeldin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm a hard worker. I don't push him to the . . . You know I don't go out for breaks when I'm not supposed to. I don't stay in the loo when I'm not supposed to. If I was that kind of person I could have him done for discrimination . . . I just get on with things you know. Four people arrive to work the night shift in a meat factory. They meet for the first time. They are employed as cleaners by a temp agency. They are all on zero-hours contracts. Every shift, they clean. Every four hours, they take a break. They drink tea or coffee together. They read magazines. They chat. As it gets light, they go home or to another job. The cycle goes on. And on. Strangers. Until something stirs, until isolated people get too close to one another, too fast. Alexander Zeldin's brutally honest and darkly humorous play, written through devising with the ensemble of the premiere production, exposes stories of an invisible class. It received its world premiere at The Yard on 1 July 2014 and transferred to the National Theatre's Temporary Theatre on 28 April 2015.

Book Johnny Marr  Set the boy free

Download or read book Johnny Marr Set the boy free written by Johnny Marr and published by Editora Belas-Letras. This book was released on 2022-06-13 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UMA JORNADA NA MENTE CRIATIVA DE JOHNNY MARR, MÚSICO QUE INFLUENCIOU UMA GERAÇÃO DE GUITARRISTAS DESDE THE SMITHS. "Nunca descobri por que me sentia tão atraído pela guitarra quando era criança e por que ela me acompanhou por toda minha vida. Ser guitarrista tem sido minha identidade, para o mundo e para mim mesmo. Tem sido desse jeito desde que vi a primeira em uma vitrine aos cinco anos, e não conheço uma vida diferente disso desde aquele momento." Início da década de 1980, subúrbios de Manchester. O guitarrista jovem Johnny Marr bate à porta de Steven Morrissey, cantor semidesconhecido, alguns anos mais velho que ele, e o convida para fundar uma banda juntos. Desse encontro, nasce um dos grupos de rock mais famosos de todos os tempos: The Smiths. Poucas bandas tiveram tanto impacto quanto The Smiths e poucos músicos são tão celebrados quanto Johnny Marr. No entanto, A autobiografia não é apenas a história de uma das bandas icônicas dos anos 1980. É a história de um menino que cresceu em uma família irlandesa, operária e católica, que rapidamente descobre o poder da música e da arte. É a história de um adolescente que observa com curiosidade e entusiasmo as grandes mudanças sociais na Inglaterra pós-industrial, os movimentos da contracultura juvenil, os novos gêneros musicais — do glam rock ao punk e à new wave. E é também a história de um músico já maduro, que, após a dissolução, dos Smiths não tem medo de tomar novos caminhos. Desde então, Marr não parou de explorar os limites da música. Ele se juntou a bandas como The Pretenders, Modest Mouse, The The e The Cribs, além de ter colaborado com Hans Zimmer. Aqui, pela primeira vez, ele conta sua versão da história. Alternando memórias pessoais, insights musicais e reflexões sobre a sociedade e os costumes, esta obra é uma jornada em uma das mentes criativas mais férteis da música pop contemporânea.

Book Paris Hollywood

    Book Details:
  • Author : Peter Wollen
  • Publisher : Verso Books
  • Release : 2020-05-05
  • ISBN : 1789608155
  • Pages : 485 pages

Download or read book Paris Hollywood written by Peter Wollen and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new collection of essays on film, all written over the last ten years, Peter Wollen explores an extraordinarily wide range of topics, stretching from an analysis of 'Time in Film and Video Art' to a study of 'Riff-Raff Realism' in British films. There are provocative discussions of the works of established auteur directors such as Howard Hawks and Alfred Hitchcock and of the film-making careers of such experimental movie-makers as William Burroughs and Viking Eggeling, the dadaist pioneer of abstract film. The collection also includes fascinating studies of a number of film classics, such as John Huston's Freud, Jean Renoir's Rules of the Game and Ridley Scott's Blade Runner. Other essays deal with the relationship of film to the other arts, such as dance and architecture, and explore the interaction between film and anthropology. This is not a theoretical book but it is one that suggests many new approaches to thinking about film and many unexpected connections between film studies and the history of such strangely related activities as espionage, psychoanalysis, Stalinism, love of speed and digital technology. Full of fascinating new insights, Peter Wollen's new book is based on the premise that there are no fixed ways of writing about film but, rather, a plethora of paths leading in very different directions, each contributing to a new understanding of the twentieth century's major art-form.

Book Love is the Cure

Download or read book Love is the Cure written by Elton John and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2012-07-17 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first ever book by music legend and author of the bestselling Me, Sir Elton John: a personal, passionate and illuminating journey of his fight to end the AIDS epidemic. In the 1980s, Elton John saw friend after friend, loved one after loved one, perish needlessly from AIDS. In the midst of the plague, he befriended Ryan White, a young Indiana boy ostracized by his town and his school because of the HIV infection he had contracted from a blood transfusion. Ryan's inspiring life and devastating death led Elton to two realizations: His own life was a mess. And he had to do something to help stop the AIDS crisis. Since then, Elton has dedicated himself to overcoming the plague and the stigma of AIDS. He has done this through the Elton John AIDS Foundation, which has raised and donated $275 million to date to fighting the disease worldwide. Love Is The Cure is Elton's personal account of his life during the AIDS epidemic, including stories of his close friendships with Ryan White, Freddie Mercury, Princess Diana, Elizabeth Taylor, and others, and the story of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. With powerful conviction and emotional force, Elton conveys the personal toll AIDS has taken on his life - and his infinite determination to stop its spread. Elton writes, 'This is a disease that must be cured not by a miraculous vaccine, but by changing hearts and minds, and through a collective effort to break down social barriers and to build bridges of compassion. Why are we not doing more? This is a question I have thought deeply about, and wish to answer - and help to change - by writing this book.' The sale of Love Is the Cure will benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
