DELUS Issue 1 adopts a water-centric lens through the notion of "Chasing Water" and presents a collection of writings forming an anthology. Nine essays delve into various bodies of water, inviting us to explore their diverse manifestations. Using the term "chasing," DELUS seeks to highlight waters role in shaping and sustaining landscapes and urban environments, as well as the continuous efforts to influence its course. From the transformation of Englands Fens to intricate irrigation systems in the Mediterranean and the environmental consequences of water harvesting infrastructures in Chile and Australia, each contribution explores the ways in which water may be pursued or repelled. Seemingly contradictory, "Chasing Water" reflects on the challenge of capturing, storing, and distributing water in a world where it can be abundant yet inaccessible.DELUS is an annual publication that explores emerging themes, topics and methods from landscape and urban studies. Founded in 2022 by the Institute for Landscape and Urban Studies (LUS) at ETH Zurich, it brings academic knowledge to a broader audience and fosters exchange among designers, artists, scientists, scholars and students.

Sobre los abismos de la adiccion. Sobre la tristeza que la acechaba constantemente. Riley supo que tenia que cumplir el deseo de su madre y compartir esos recuerdos, incandescentes y dolorosos, con el mundo.Para permitir que la conozcamos por fin.Este libro extraordinario esta compuesto tanto de la voz de Lisa Marie como de la de Riley, una madre y una hija comunicandose incluso despues dela muerte para intentar curarse la una a la otra. Profundamente conmovedor e intensamente revelador, De aqui a lo desconocido es una obra inigualable: las ultimas palabras de la unica hija de una autentica leyenda.

Eve Babitz died on December 17, 2021. Found in the wrack, ruin and filth of her apartment, a stack of boxes packed by her mother decades before. Inside, a lost world, centred on a two-story rental in a down-at-heel section of Hollywood in the sixties and seventies. 7406 Franklin Avenue, where writers and artists mixed with movie stars, rock n rollers and drugs. Franklin Avenue was the making of one great American writer: Joan Didion, a mystery behind her dark glasses and cool expression, her marriage to John Gregory Dunne as tortured as it was enduring. It was also the breaking and then the remaking - and thus the true making - of another great American writer: Eve Babitz, goddaughter of Igor Stravinsky, nude of Marcel Duchamp, consort of Jim Morrison (and many, many others), a woman who burned so hot she finally almost burned herself alive. Didion and Babitz formed a complicated alliance, a friendship that went bad, amity turning to enmity. With deftness and skill, journalist Lili Anolik uses Babitz, Babitzs brilliance of observation, Babitzs incisive intelligence and, most of all, Babitzs diary-like letters - letters found in those sealed boxes, letters so intimate you dont read them so much as breathe them - as the key to unlocking Didion.

Una relectura de la intimidad en la Edad Media a través del arte románico.Vulvas, partos, penes erectos y parejas en pleno coito pueblan las iglesias románicas de nuestra geografía repartidos por portadas, capiteles y canecillos. Estas imagenes sexuales, algunas de ellas muy explicitas, han generado estupor, sorpresa e incluso rechazo en nuestra contemporaneidad, dando lugar a todo tipo de explicaciones sobre sus intenciones y significado. Sin embargo, su proliferacion y espontaneidad indican que, lejos de tratarse de una representacion del pecado, como a menudo se han interpretado, mostraban una sexualidad mucho mas abierta y acorde con la mentalidad de quienes promovieron la construccion de estos templos.El libro demuestra como, entre los siglos XI y XIII, tuvo lugar una intensa lucha por el poder politico en la que el sexo (o su ausencia) se convirtio en uno de los principales argumentos legitimadores de las elites sociales. Una batalla ideologica que dejo su huella en las imagenes sexuales romanicas que desafian nuestra logica actual.

An informative, inspiring, richly illustrated book on contemporary moving-image art. This book sets out to use the latest technologies to short-circuit the universally understandable language of the mass media and to make art once again a critical mirror of its time. Around sixty artists from more than twenty countries are presented in eight chapters, that address social, political, and scientific themes (racism, climate change, capitalism, eccentricity, sex, zeitgeist, and fashionable and frightening technologies) in a way that is playful and innovative.HEINZ PETER SCHWERFEL (*1954) lives in Paris. He works as a journalist, filmmaker and curator, and is the author of books on artists (Georg Baselitz, Jannis Kounellis) and non-fiction books such as Kunst-Skandale and Kino und Kunst. As a filmmaker, he produced films about Christian Boltanski, Rebecca Horn, Anish Kapoor, Christoph Marthaler, Annette Messager, Bruce Nauman, Cees Nooteboom, and many others, as well as TV series for the art channel ARTE (Design, Live Art). In addition, he curated exhibitions of work by Shirin Neshat, Julian Rosefeldt, and Loukia Alavanou (Greek pavilion, 2022 Venice Biennale).

A no-holds-barred rampage through gigs, clubs, boardrooms, drugs and booze, mad scenes, brilliant signings, machine gun quotes and a resilient wild spirit.A true believer in the power of music and more importantly a believer in the people that make music Noel GallagherMcGee was our Malcolm McLaren and Tony Wilson. An instigator and motivator, a born upsetter. Ive never met anyone like him Bobby Gillespie Music is like no other business. Its about being at the right place at the right time, following your nose and diving in feet first. Its about being plugged into the mystical electricity and about surfing on the wild energy. Its about how to fuck up and how to survive and be sustained by the holy grail of the high decibel. No-one captures this wild feral spirit better than Alan McGee whose helter-skelter career through music has made him a major force. Wilder than his bands, more out of control than his most lunatic singer, more driven than his contemporaries and closer in spirit to the rocknroll star he could never be himself, McGee was always in a rush. Creation would sign people and not just the music. McGee understood that running an indie label is mainly about the charisma, the game changers, the iconography and the story. Its about never being boring. His ability to start a raw power ruckus brought the visceral danger back to a moribund mid-eighties music scene. His nose for danger and his ear for classic guitar rocknroll brought us The Jesus and Mary Chain, Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, Teenage Fanclub and Ride before topping out in the nineties with the biggest band in the world, Oasis. By no means a conventional instruction manual or business book, How To Run an Indie Label tells you everything you need to know about how to be a creative force.

From the bestselling author of Beethoven: The Man Revealed, In Search of Beethoven is John Suchets latest and most personal book dedicated to the life of this extraordinary composer. Part biography, part memoir, part travelogue, Suchet draws on his own life and career as a foreign correspondent and news anchor to show how Beethovens music has accompanied him through the best and worst of times. It was with him as a music-loving and adventurous teenager, as a journalist entering Beirut in the grip of civil war, and as he has continued to explore the old cities of Bonn and Vienna, in search of the man behind the music. In this novel and compelling book, we see Beethoven brought vividly and sometimes painfully to life. Suchet traces Beethovens footsteps from his early years in Bonn to his dying days in Vienna, taking us on a journey both literal and symbolic, as he uses his own experience as a Beethoven aficionado to demonstrate the life-changing power of great music.
