Download or read book Collecting and Exhibiting Computer Based Technology written by Petrina Foti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer technology has transformed modern society, yet curators wishing to reflect those changes face difficult challenges in terms of both collecting and exhibiting. Collecting and Exhibiting Computer-Based Technology examines how curators at the history and technology museums of the Smithsonian Institution have met these challenges. Focusing on the curatorial process, the book explores the ways in which curators at the institution have approached the accession and display of technological artifacts. Such collections often have comparatively few precedents, and can pose unique dilemmas. In analysing the Smithsonian’s approach, Foti takes in diverse collection case studies ranging from DNA analyzers to Herbie Hancock’s music synthesizers, from iPods to born-digital photographs, from the laptop used during the filming of the television program Sex and the City to "Stanley" the self-driving car. Using her proposed model of "expert curation", she synthesizes her findings into a more universal framework for undertanding the curatorial methods associated with computer technology and reflects on what it means to be a curator in a postdigital world. Collecting and Exhibiting Computer-Based Technology offers a detailed analysis of curatorial practice in a relatively new field that is set to grow exponentially. It will be useful reading for curators, scholars, and students alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Running away from the school that she hates, headstrong and rebellious, beautiful young Petrina Lyndon clambers over a wall into a country road, flinging her bag over before her and narrowly missing a dashingly handsome young Earl, to whom she complains about the ‘horrible, beastly’ Guardian who placed her at the school and how he never listens to her. She is even more shocked when the Earl reveals that he himself is actually her Guardian, the Earl of Staverton. And although he is not the elderly ‘stuffed shirt’ she expected, he is cold and unfriendly and unimpressed by her stated desire to go to London and become one of the ‘Lady-Birds’ that she has heard so much about. She tells the Earl that she wants to enjoy herself and not get married to some boring and stuffy aristocrat. The Earl is horrified at this unseemly and ignorant revelation and tells her so in no uncertain terms. Determined to dissuade her from a path that would lead her into depravity and danger the Earl insists that she allows him to launch her into Society as a debutante in an effort to marry her off. But Petrina has very different ideas. And she resolves to somehow steal his Lordship’s heart!

Download or read book The Island of Lost Dolls written by Eric Scott and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Kellie had a dragon living the paddock at the back of her house. She also had trolls, but she didn't know about them yet. The dragon hadn't been there very long and it had never spoken. It hadn’t breathed fire, nor roared a scary roar. But that was because it was made from wood.” When a large tree branch dried out it looked a lot like a dragon with a long forked tail, four wriggly limbs protruding from a thick body, and a large mouth where the branch had separated from the tree. It looked fearsome enough but when Kellie and her Dad had finished with the paint tins, it looked even scarier. Kellie called it David the Snake Dragon. In this fast-moving and exciting book for early readers, which is also designed for parents to read to their children, Kellie and Gregory discover that their favourite toys have been stolen and David comes to life. He takes the children to the Island of Lost Dolls, a place where lost dolls used to live happily ever after, but when a wicked doll declares herself queen she make all the dolls her slaves. Kellie Gregory and David with the help of the mysterious Regina must fight to save not only their own toys but all the others too.

Book excerpt: My first trip to Europe, and it’s all murderous monsters and no sightseeing… My ex-boyfriend escaped from the dungeons of the usurper and current Dark Queen. I promised I’d save him, even if he doesn’t want me to. But I wasn’t prepared for what’s happened on Earth since I’ve been living it up as the Heir to the Light Throne. I unleashed hell when I broke the world and thousands of magical minds with it. Hordes of hungry vampires with no control roam Central Europe. Shifters with no Alpha to unite them and keep them sane during the full moon ravage the countryside. And weirdest of all are the evil, misogynistic monks dead set on ridding the world of witches. Dodging monsters and monks should be child’s play for the world breaker – aka me. But ending the fighting between the supernaturals is proving a lot harder. I need to unite the werewolves and vampires to fight the monsters I unleashed when I broke the world. Otherwise, I won’t survive to take the Fae throne...
