Download or read book The Wretched of the Screen written by Hito Steyerl and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2013-04-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hito Steyerl's writing we begin to see how, even if the hopes and desires for coherent collective political projects have been displaced onto images and screens, it is precisely here that we must look frankly at the technology that seals them in. The Wretched of the Screen collects a number of Steyerl's landmark essays from recent years in which she has steadily developed her very own politics of the image. Twisting the politics of representation around the representation of politics, these essays uncover a rich trove of information in the formal shifts and aberrant distortions of accelerated capitalism, of the art system as a vast mine of labor extraction and passionate commitment, of occupation and internship, of structural and literal violence, enchantment and fun, of hysterical, uncontrollable flight through the wreckage of postcolonial and modernist discourses and their unanticipated openings. e-flux journal Series edited by Julieta Aranda, Brian Kuan Wood, Anton Vidokle
Download or read book A Wretch Like Me written by Stephanie KOONTZ and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wretch Like Me is a powerful testimony of what God's saving grace and redemption can do for those trapped in the clenches of addiction. Addiction has no filter. Addiction is controlled by the thief; ready to steal, kill, and destroy. This Christian Living autobiography offers insight to the life, and mindset, of someone trapped inside addiction and eating disorders. Stephanie's life was controlled by bulimia and severe alcohol abuse for over fifteen years. After the tragic death of her daughter, Stephanie gave up on life, and wanted to just simply die. Severe alcohol, abuse, and malnourishment, led to countless seizures from alcohol withdrawals. Nothing was worth living for. After the birth of her second child, the enemy continued to whisper his lies into her ear, "it is all your fault that your daughter is gone," and she believed him. She quickly fell back into the deepest level of torment and Hell that addiction has to offer. Homeless, violently sick of being sick, and painfully alone, Stephanie was finally desperate for change. This book takes you on a journey through the painful life of an addict, visions of Hell, and by God's grace alone, we come out together on the other side, walking in His freedom and truth. If you are struggling with an addiction or alcoholism, this book is for you. If you are trapped by an eating disorder, this book is for you. If you know nothing about addiction other than the destruction it is causing a loved one, and you want to gain insight, this book is for you. If you see the same homeless man asking for help on that same street corner, day after day, and don't know how to help, then this book is for you to give to him. Stephanie's autobiography is raw and unfiltered, but filled with mighty wisdom and truth, guiding you to the solid fact that foot of the cross is always level. Stephanie humbled herself, surrendered her life to Jesus, and now God has taken her prior mess and made it into a beautiful message full of His redemption and grace. Think your life is too far gone, and not worth saving? Come read through this journey. He can, and will, rescue A Wretch Like Me.

Download or read book The Wretch of the Sun written by Michael Cisco and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reading "The Wretch of the Sun" is akin to a ghost looking at its reflection in a mirror in a haunted house and finding nothing there, or too much there. An out-of-control freight train going from this world to the other and back whiteout / without knowing where it will stop, if ever."--Harry O. Morris A haunted house is a house with its own story. A ghost is someone about whom stories are told, who is unable to tell his or her own story. Death can be understood as the inability to tell one's own story; whether that death is literal is another question. Ghosts exist in imagination, which is real. A story, to be a told story, needs a listener or reader. Ghosts, as I have been saying, appear to need someone to whom to appear. So we discover the story of the suicides, and we solve the riddle alongside the narrating busy body of the story, and bury the bones together in one grave; the disturbances cease. But a house once haunted will always be haunted; it isn't the disturbance but the story that haunts it. The haunted house draws attention to the secret it keeps like a master who teases his pupils with unanswerable riddles. Or like secret police, who can't be entirely effective if they are entirely secret. These aren't questions that contain their own answers, like math problems. I do not have the answer any more than you do, because the answer isn't in the question, the answer is to leave behind the idea that a question is a door that an answer pulls finally shut. Once we've dutifully recited to the last syllable every thing we know, we are chastened or even taken aback by the paltry incommensurability of what we've just said with the haunted wealth that extends within and without us in all directions. At that moment, the suggestive ambivalence of a story will have to seem truer than the abbreviation of a hollow answer. "Michael Cisco's works are indispensable to contemporary fantastic literature. They not only elevate this genre, they hover above it."--Thomas Ligotti "Michael Cisco is of a different kind and league from almost anyone writing today."--China Mieville

Download or read book Wretched Saints written by Noel Jesse Heikkinen and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The truth of the gospel of Jesus,” Heikkinen writes, “is that I am nothing more than a wretch and so much more than a saint.” Have you ever wondered if God could really save you? Have you ever thought grace might not be enough? In Wretched Saints, Heikkinen reveals the rough and beautiful side of grace so clearly that readers face up to the scars of sin—and have a renewed, startling realization that God’s incredible gospel is true. Wretched Saints shows how grace is the ridiculously unwarranted posture of God that transforms sinners into saints, gives freedom to lavish grace on others, and stubbornly shapes us all to look like Jesus.
