Book excerpt: "One of a rare breed of artist - the neon artist, whose canvas is the night illuminated by a magic crayon of brilliant and sinuous, liquid light - Lili Lakich is also the founder and director of the world's only museum dedicated to this extraordinary art form, the Museum of Neon Art in Los Angeles. Lakich's own neon sculptures, created over a period of twenty years, have brought expressiveness to a medium sometimes considered cold and commercial. Often highly charged with emotion and monumental in size, they are like jewels salvaged from the modern world, transformed into icons of glistening beauty made all the more startling by their garnish orgins."--BOOK COVER.

Download or read book Flickering Light written by Christoph Ribbat and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without neon, Las Vegas might still be a sleepy desert town in Nevada and Times Square merely another busy intersection in New York City. Transformed by the installation of these brightly colored signs, these destinations are now world-famous, representing the vibrant heart of popular culture. But for some, neon lighting represents the worst of commercialism. Energized by the conflicting love and hatred people have for neon, Flickering Light explores its technological and intellectual history, from the discovery of the noble gas in late nineteenth-century London to its fading popularity today. Christoph Ribbat follows writers, artists, and musicians—from cultural critic Theodor Adorno, British rock band the Verve, and artist Tracey Emin to Vladimir Nabokov, Langston Hughes, and American country singers—through the neon cities in Europe, America, and Asia, demonstrating how they turned these blinking lights and letters into metaphors of the modern era. He examines how gifted craftsmen carefully sculpted neon advertisements, introducing elegance to modern metropolises during neon’s heyday between the wars followed by its subsequent popularity in Las Vegas during the 1950s and '60s. Ribbat ends with a melancholy discussion of neon’s decline, describing how these glowing signs and installations came to be seen as dated and characteristic of run-down neighborhoods. From elaborate neon lighting displays to neglected diner signs with unlit letters, Flickering Light tells the engrossing story of how a glowing tube of gas took over the world—and faded almost as quickly as it arrived.
Download or read book The Domain Matrix written by Sue-Ellen Case and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Domain-Matrix is about the passage from print culture to electronic screen culture and how this passage affects the reader or computer user. Sections are organized to emulate, in a printed book, the reader's experience of computer windows. Case traces the portrait of virtual identities within queer and lesbian critical practice and virtual technologies. The book poses several key questions: How do the competing orders of print and the screen situate the body? How do they treat notions of the "live"? Written to encourage a reading strategy somewhere between print and hypertext, the book is divided into sections which prompt the reader to link them in non-sequential orders.
