Children's & YA2018What on Earth am I?
by Lara Salomon
What on Earth am I? is Lara Salomon's and Megan Bird's first children's book together, investigating complex topics, like identity, diversity, and existentialism, for kids. It is a wonderful picture book for children with more questions than answers about the world. The book follows a young child’s over-active imagination, which often leaves them confused as to what kind of creature they are. They try their very best to discover the answer by recalling the many creatures that they've read about in their storybooks and fairytales. "I've been reading all these stories, and they've got me quite confused. Because they feature all these creatures, and I'm really not amused."

August 2001Lara Croft - Modell, Medium, Cyberheldin
Das virtuelle Geschlecht und seine metaphysischen Tücken
by Astrid Deuber-Mankowsky, EIDOS Interactive Germany, Agentur TBWA Frankfurt
Lara Croft, die Heldin des Computerspiels »Tomb Raider«, ist in kurzer Zeit zu einem »Cultural icon« geworden. Sie ist Traum-Frau und weibliche Heldin, Pin-up-Girl und »Grrl« in einem. Damit bedient sie männliche ebenso wie weibliche Ermächtigungsphantasien. Doch statt die hierarchische Geschlechterordnung zu unterlaufen, befördert der Kult um Lara Croft einen Prozeß, der als »Medialisierung« der Körper beschrieben werden kann und der die dualistische Geschlechtermetaphysik auf einem höheren Level auferstehen läßt. Welche Bedeutungsverschiebung durchläuft der Begriff des Geschlechtlichen im Zuge seiner Virtualisierung? Die Autorin nähert sich dieser Frage entlang einer Analyse der Entstehungs- und der Wirkungsgeschichte des Phänomens Lara Croft.

The ArtsOctober 2015Film light
Meaning and emotion
by Lara Thompson
In one of the first monographs of its kind to focus on the aesthetic and emotional impact of lighting in cinema, Lara Thompson looks at the way light informs the cinematic experience, from constructing star identities, sculpting natural light and creating imaginary worlds, to the seductive power of darkness, fading representations of the past and arresting twilight encounters. This groundbreaking and accessible introductory study offers a unique insight into the way illumination has transcended its diffuse functional boundaries and been elevated to a position of narrative and emotional importance, transforming it from an unobtrusive element of film style to an expressive and essential component. It includes analyses of over fifty renowned international films, discussed in inventive and illuminating combinations, from cinema's earliest moments to its most recent digital manifestations, and is essential reading for all those who want to understand what film light means and how it makes us feel. ;

Ohrwürmchen
by Britta Schwarz, Antje Bohnstedt, Johanna Lindemann, Kay Poppe, Ursula Illert, Frank Gustavus, Manfred Tophoven
In „Das kleine Wutmonster“ hören wir von Marvin, dem immer gleich das kleine Wutmonster auf der Schulter sitzt, ob Schwester Lara seine Kekse stibitzt oder sein blaues T-Shirt gerade in der Wäsche ist, wenn er es anziehen möchte. „Paul Wüterich“ erzählt von Piratenmaus Frida, die ihrem Freund Wasserdrache Paul zeigt, wie man mit seiner Wut umgeht, und „Die Prinzessin von Bestimm“ lernt ihren Sturkopf zu beherrschen – und eine Freundin kennen.
