Book excerpt: This collection of artwork and writings by renowned artist, Duncan Regehr is a gem. Never one to be bewitched by the appearance of things, Duncan Regehr has devoted his life to going below the surface, reaching into the depths of psychology and the unconscious. His paintings and poetry explore his well-thought-out and penetrating assessment of humanity and the evolution of his social consciousness. Here he looks back at his relationship to nature, society, and the human condition. In series such as "Geoscapes," "Smokin Gun," and "The Grand Theme," he depicts environmental and societal changes—where we have come from and where we are headed. In the spectacular paintings presented here, Regehr's clarity of thought about our complex world is characteristically rendered with jewel-like use of color and many-faceted imagery. The accompanying poetry reveals a man of sensitivity to human experience and to the order of nature.

Book excerpt: A Book of Paintings and Poetry - containing the artwork of Taos painter, Bill Rane (1927-2005) adorned by the poetry of eleven poets from the West and Southwest. In September of 2007, upon the two year commemoration of Rane's passing, an ekphrasis event took place at RANE Gallery in Taos, New Mexico titled: Reflections on Rane. Poets, reflecting upon their chosen Rane painting, read their poems in celebration of the artist's work. THE MASTER'S HAND is the result of that evening's spoken word performance. Each painting and a detail from the painting is shown in vibrant color accompanied by its illuminating poem. Andrea Watkins states in her preface, the poems took on unique forms - "As companion pieces to the artist's luminous paintings of women, the sea, horses, orchards of ripening fruit, birds, shells, earth and sky, they wove a tapestry of Bill's world, expressing the joyous pulse of humanity."

Book Two Bits

  • Author : Christopher M. Kelty
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2008-06-09
  • ISBN : 9780822342649
  • Pages : 402 pages

Download or read book Two Bits written by Christopher M. Kelty and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2008-06-09 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Two Bits, Christopher M. Kelty investigates the history and cultural significance of Free Software, revealing the people and practices that have transformed not only software but also music, film, science, and education. Free Software is a set of practices devoted to the collaborative creation of software source code that is made openly and freely available through an unconventional use of copyright law. Kelty explains how these specific practices have reoriented the relations of power around the creation, dissemination, and authorization of all kinds of knowledge. He also makes an important contribution to discussions of public spheres and social imaginaries by demonstrating how Free Software is a “recursive public”—a public organized around the ability to build, modify, and maintain the very infrastructure that gives it life in the first place. Drawing on ethnographic research that took him from an Internet healthcare start-up company in Boston to media labs in Berlin to young entrepreneurs in Bangalore, Kelty describes the technologies and the moral vision that bind together hackers, geeks, lawyers, and other Free Software advocates. In each case, he shows how their practices and way of life include not only the sharing of software source code but also ways of conceptualizing openness, writing copyright licenses, coordinating collaboration, and proselytizing. By exploring in detail how these practices came together as the Free Software movement from the 1970s to the 1990s, Kelty also considers how it is possible to understand the new movements emerging from Free Software: projects such as Creative Commons, a nonprofit organization that creates copyright licenses, and Connexions, a project to create an online scholarly textbook commons.

Book The Myth of the Rational Voter

Download or read book The Myth of the Rational Voter written by Bryan Caplan and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest obstacle to sound economic policy is not entrenched special interests or rampant lobbying, but the popular misconceptions, irrational beliefs, and personal biases held by ordinary voters. This is economist Bryan Caplan's sobering assessment in this provocative and eye-opening book. Caplan argues that voters continually elect politicians who either share their biases or else pretend to, resulting in bad policies winning again and again by popular demand. Boldly calling into question our most basic assumptions about American politics, Caplan contends that democracy fails precisely because it does what voters want. Through an analysis of Americans' voting behavior and opinions on a range of economic issues, he makes the convincing case that noneconomists suffer from four prevailing biases: they underestimate the wisdom of the market mechanism, distrust foreigners, undervalue the benefits of conserving labor, and pessimistically believe the economy is going from bad to worse. Caplan lays out several bold ways to make democratic government work better--for example, urging economic educators to focus on correcting popular misconceptions and recommending that democracies do less and let markets take up the slack. The Myth of the Rational Voter takes an unflinching look at how people who vote under the influence of false beliefs ultimately end up with government that delivers lousy results. With the upcoming presidential election season drawing nearer, this thought-provoking book is sure to spark a long-overdue reappraisal of our elective system.
