Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slant Steps explores the vital role of the semi-periphery—artistic communities working between the provinces and the metropole. Premised on the collective fascination with the found object Slant Step, the book details a history of encounters among artists, filmmakers, critics, and others operating in and out of the Bay Area during the long 1960s. They revised the terms of the counterculture, the appeal of consumer goods, and the surfaces and materials of industrial design and contemporary sculpture. Whether extending to international exchanges or shrinking to local coteries, these circles helped develop process, funk, and conceptual art as they forged new directions for the art world and its members. Yet when these groups degraded their own works alongside those of their rivals, they made their political and aesthetic commitments difficult to decipher, reorganizing the ties between the visual arts and the New Left. Merging sociologies of art with the tradition of social art history, Jacob Stewart-Halevy uncovers the oblique perspectives and values of the semi-periphery, revealing its enduring impact upon contemporary art, above all in the field of pedagogy.

Book excerpt: "In 1965 the artist William T. Wiley found a mysterious slanted object in a Northern California salvage shop and gifted it to his student Bruce Nauman, setting off a series of artistic exchanges that continued for nearly five decades. What started as a California story soon became national phenomenon, resulting in new works by artists such as Ray Johnson, Nauman, Richard Serra, and Wiley who were drawn to the enigma of the slanted green stool. Since the 1960s the Slant Step has developed a cultlike following and inspired innumerable sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, films, poems, and an influential artists' book published by artist Phil Weidman in 1969. This long overdue republication of the Slant Step Book features a facsimile of the 1969 artists' book and a companion collection of new essays and visual responses by contemporary writers and artists who extend the legacy of the Slant Step into our present moment.

Book excerpt: This volume contains the Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing (ICIAP 2005), held in Cagliari, Italy, at the conference centre “Centro della Cultura e dei Congressi”, on September 6–8, 2005. ICIAP 2005 was the thirteenth edition of a series of conferences organized every two years by the Italian group of researchersa?liated to the International Association for Pattern Recognition (GIRPR) with the aim to bring together researchers in image processing and pattern recognition from around the world. As for the previous editions, conference topics concerned the theory of image analysis and processing and its classical and Internet-driven applications. The central theme of ICIAP 2005 was “Pattern Recognition in the Internet and Mobile Communications Era”. The interest for such a theme was con?rmed by the large number of papers dealing with it, the special session devoted to pattern recognition for computer network security, and the emphasis of twoinvited talks on Internet and mobile communication issues. ICIAP 2005 received 217 paper submissions. Fifteen papers were collected into the two special sessions dealing with Pattern Recognition for Computer Network Security and Computer Vision for Augmented Reality and Augmented Environments.
