Download or read book The Colour Code written by Paul Simpson and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2021-10-07 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is The Colour Code different to other books on colour? Well, the short answer is that it is a whole lot more fun - not least because it is extensively illustrated. We don't just get a story about Mummy Brown (the pigment made from Egyptian mummies), we see a painting created with pigments from the remains of French kings. We are reminded of the blue/gold dress that swept Twitter, view paintings by Mondrian (red ones sell for higher prices) and Van Eyck (he invented an enduring green), and inspect the red soles of Louboutin shoes. We see what lumps of Indian yellow look like, while reading what they are made of (strained cow's urine). We get to see the latest most vibrant pigment - YinMn Blue - and have a real estate agent's tour of Frank Sinatra's ranch (he was obsessed by orange). We see William Morris's arsenic-inflected wallpapers and hear about whether wallpaper killed Napoleon. We encounter the pink pussy hats worn on the Women's March and Elvis's pink jackets from Lansky's in Memphis, take in a history of the black dress from Audrey Hepburn to Princess Diana and a rare black chicken (even its eggs are black) from Indonesia. Featuring a cast of actors, artists, chemists, composers, dentists, dictators, fashion designers, film-makers, gods, musicians, mystics, physicists, poets, quacks, tigers and tycoons, The Colour Code will change the way we all perceive the spectrum - and see the world.

Download or read book The Sensational Past How the Enlightenment Changed the Way We Use Our Senses written by Carolyn Purnell and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch—as they were celebrated during the Enlightenment and as they are perceived today. Blindfolding children from birth? Playing a piano made of live cats? Using tobacco to cure drowning? Wearing “flea”-colored clothes? These actions may seem odd to us, but in the eighteenth century, they made perfect sense. As often as we use our senses, we rarely stop to think about their place in history. But perception is not dependent on the body alone. Carolyn Purnell persuasively shows that, while our bodies may not change dramatically, the way we think about the senses and put them to use has been rather different over the ages. Journeying through the past three hundred years, Purnell explores how people used their senses in ways that might shock us now. And perhaps more surprisingly, she shows how many of our own ways of life are a legacy of this earlier time. The Sensational Past focuses on the ways in which small, peculiar, and seemingly unimportant facts open up new ways of thinking about the past. You will explore the sensory worlds of the Enlightenment, learning how people in the past used their senses, understood their bodies, and experienced the rapidly shifting world around them. In this smart and witty work, Purnell reminds us of the value of daily life and the power of the smallest aspects of existence using culinary history, fashion, medicine, music, and many other aspects of Enlightenment life.

They can even express our moods, from feeling blue to being tickled pink. What Can Colors Do? introduces children to color through vibrant artworks that inspire curiosity, joy, and surprise in young learners. Colorful paintings, sculptures, and objects from the Philadelphia Museum of Art help children think about how artists use color. How can colors express feelings? Can a color be loud or soft? As children learn the basics of color theory, from mixing to contrast and color wheels, they answer engaging, thoughtful questions that bring the world of art and their own experiences together.

Download or read book The Bush Diaries written by Jack Nargundkar and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [A]fter seeing their Iraq strategy unravel, North Korea get ignored, and the state of Palestine remain a wishful dream-I would dare say that the Bush Administration's foreign policy also needs substantive tuning. In the ultimate, if U.S. foreign policy is made more consistent with our core values, and the Bush Administration uses traditional diplomacy to further policy goals, its Second Term might turn out to be a memorable "American Intifada"! The Bush Diaries captures the true meaning of "freedom and democracy" by allowing an average American citizen to be heard. Author Jack Nargundkar comments, in real time, on the performance of not only President Bush, but also the pundits in the media who evaluate the presidency. The Wall Street Journal editorialized that the Bush economy had performed in a stellar fashion in 2002. The facts indicated something quite to the contrary-thus began Nargundkar's next couple of years of furious letter writing. Largely based on those letters as well as articles submitted to The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times, The Bush Diaries is a chronicle of Nargundkar's views of the George W. Bush era from 2001 to 2005.
