Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2024The machinic city
Media, performance and participation
by Marcos P. Dias
As human and machine agency become increasingly intermingled and digital media is overlaid onto the urban landscape, The machinic city argues that performance art can help us to understand contemporary urban living. Dias analyses interventions from performance artists such as Blast Theory, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Rimini Protokoll, which draw from a rich history of avant-garde art movements to create spaces for deliberation and reflection on urban life, and speculation on its future. While cities are increasingly controlled by autonomous processes mediated by technical machines, Dias analyses the performative potential of the aesthetic machine, as it assembles with media, capitalist, human and urban machines. The aesthetic machine of performance art in urban space is examined through its different components - design, city and technology actants. This unveils the unpredictable nature and emerging potential of performance art as it unfolds in the machinic city.

April 1996The Best of H. P. Lovecraft
by H. P. Lovecraft, Rudolf Hermstein, H. C. Artmann
Mit seinem Cthulu-Mythos wollte H. P. Lovecraft eine Atmosphäre kosmischen Grauens schaffen, die Archaisches mit den modernen Erkenntnissen der Wissenschaft verbindet und unserer Zeit angemessen ist. Die Angst hielt er für das älteste und stärkste Gefühl, mit dem er in seinen Erzählungen gerne spielte. Die besten Erzählungen von H. P. Lovecraft sind in diesem Rand zusammengefaßt.

Meurtre par la Cabale
by Nathan Erez et Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman
Meurtre par la Cabale Un Thriller ésotérique fondé sur les secrets de la cabale Nathan Erez et Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman Un thriller israélien qui associe deux éléments apparemment sans rapport l’un avec l’autre : une série de meurtres étranges et le déchiffrage d’anciens textes cabalistiques, avec leur sens caché et mystique. Un professeur de Jérusalem, expert dans le déchiffrage d’anciens manuscrits hébraïques, est chargé d’une mystérieuse mission, qui l’envoie sur trois continents. Il devient mêlé à une série de meurtres, qui le dépassent complètement. Mais il découvre rapidement que s’il ne parvient pas à déchiffrer les manuscrits énigmatiques à l’aide de ses connaissances de la cabale, beaucoup de vies, y compris celles des membres de sa propre famille, seront menacées. Entremêlés avec ce récit passionnant se trouvent de curieux passages rappelant les nombreuses conquêtes qu’a subies la ville de Jérusalem au cours de sa longue histoire ; leur connexion et leur signification ne se révéleront qu’à la fin du livre. Meurtre par la Cabale est une aventure passionnante et au rythme soutenu. Grâce à sa structure remarquable et son sujet captivant (la cabale), vous ne pourrez simplement pas le poser avant d'en connaître la fin. La solution surprenante de ce drame intègre des éléments cabalistiques et entoure le récit de magie, laissant le lecteur presque à bout de souffle. Ce livre a été écrit par Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman, en coopération avec le mystérieux cabaliste Nathan Erez, qui refuse obstinément de révéler son identité. Le Dr Silberman a écrit 17 livres jusqu’à ce jour, parmi lesquels une collection d'histoires courtes, des romans et deux livres pour enfants, ainsi que des recherches et des publications académiques. Le Dr. Silberman est conférencière de littérature dans les meilleures universités israéliennes et son travail lui a valu plusieurs prix. Elle a participé à de nombreux congrès internationaux. L’auteur est mère de trois enfants. L'édition italienne a été publiée en fin 2005 par Barbera Editore et a été chaleureusement acclamée par les médias ; celle en espagnol est sortie en mi- 2006, et l'édition portugaise en octobre 2006. L'édition tchèque est parue en Mars 2008.

The environmentMay 1997Phosphorus Loss from Soil to Water
by Edited by H Tunney, P C Brookes, A E Johnston
Phosphorus is an essential element for plant growth and its input has long been recognised as necessary to maintain profitable crop production. However, phosphorus inputs can also increase the biological activity of surface waters and this can lead to the destruction of such aquatic ecosystems. Advanced eutrophication of surface water leads to problems with its use for fisheries, recreation, industry and drinking, due to the increased growth of undesirable algae and aquatic weeds, and oxygen shortages caused by their death and decomposition. It is therefore important to have a good understanding of the causes and mode of phosphorus loss from soil to water, to enable the problems to be controlled and managed. This book has been developed from an international workshop held in Ireland in late 1995. It is the first comprehensive consideration of the topic, and many leading researchers in the area have contributed to it. It is essential reading for all soil scientists and freshwater biologists, as well as for environmentalists, ecologists and agriculturalists concerned with sustainable land management and pollution. The book is also recommended to fisheries managers, fertilizer manufacturers and biologists working for water utilities.
