Sinopse

Ink Making Methods explores the rich history and complex chemistry behind ink, tracing its evolution from ancient soot-based concoctions to modern, chemically sophisticated formulas. The book uniquely blends art history and archival science, examining how different ink recipes influenced manuscript production and artistic techniques across civilizations. Early inks, for instance, relied on readily available materials like gum Arabic as binders, significantly shaping writing styles of the time. The narrative progresses chronologically, starting with ancient inks and their cultural significance, then moving to the alchemical innovations of the Medieval and Renaissance periods, exemplified by the widespread use of iron gall ink. This type of ink, while historically important, is known for its corrosive effect on parchment. The book culminates in an exploration of modern ink chemistry, detailing the role of synthetic dyes and pigments while also addressing the environmental impact of ink production. Throughout, the book combines historical accounts, scientific data, and artistic analyses to provide a comprehensive understanding.

    Finnish mythology is filled with stories from northern gods and goddesses, magical animals and feisty forest spirits. Finland was an agricultural society for hundreds of years and before that the inhabitants were hunter-gatherers. Our mythology and folktales are intertwined with the surrounding nature, clear lakes, northern lights and the forest, which was the home of all kinds of mysterious events. In this book you will become familiar with old Finnish gods and goddesses and ancient festivals. We will go through different deities that represent different seasons. All of these gods and goddesses have different messages for us and they can teach us valuable lessons, about ourselves, nature around us, and the universse.   
    Summer Solstice was the time to honor the thunder god Ukko, who brought the rain and life with him. This was the time to party and be merry. All kinds of spells and magic was performed during this magical day. The biggest festival of the year, however was the harvest festival Kekri. This was the time when the spirits and ghosts wondered among the living. Ancestors were remembered and they were invited to join the festivities. Many of the modern Finnish Christmas traditions, are in fact, based on the old Kekri celebration. In March when the earth woke up from it's sleep, the goddess Akka was celebrated. Spring equanox was known as matopäivä the day of the snakes. During this day, snakes woke up from hibernation and they danced to honor the earth goddess. 
    This book is perfect for anyone who is fascinated by history, folklore and old European cultures and anyone who is interested in magic, myth and lore. You will learn about ancient customs and traditions and how you can implement these teachings in your personal life. 
    Niina is a folklorist and mythology researcher. She has created multiple courses on her native Finnish folklore.

    The Actor's Mindset: Acting as a Craft, Discipline, and Business uniquely prepares actors to live full, successful lives as performing artists. While most acting books focus on either the art or the business of entertainment, Archibald looks at the entire picture of what it means to be an actor, focusing on the foundations of both the artist and the entrepreneur to guarantee a complete and fully functioning approach to a career. 
     
     
     
    The Actor's Mindset is divided into three distinct parts: "The Craft," "The Discipline," and "The Business." 
     
     
     
    Archibald's unique experience as both an actor and a coach gives him an unparalleled perspective on the current industry landscape. While classic method texts still circulate, and there are actors who have written books that address craft, none have Archibald's depth of knowledge and experience in coaching, nor approach the art from a professional standpoint instead of solely an instructional one. The success of Craig's approach is exemplified by the success of his clients, a roster that includes Constance Wu, John Slattery, and two-time Academy Award nominee Dan Futterman.

    **Read by the Author** 
    The long-awaited memoir from country music legend, Clint Black—a raw, intimate, and unflinching story that traces his rise from struggling songwriter to chart-topping superstar and enduring music legend. 
    Over twenty million records sold. Twenty-two number one career singles. 31 top ten singles. Nearly two dozen gold and platinum awards. Countless CMA and ACM awards. A Grammy Award. A star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. When it comes to modern music, few artists have had a bigger or more lasting impact than Clint Black. Since bursting onto the country music scene in 1989 with Killin’ Time—the triple-platinum debut that delivered five consecutive number one singles—Black has built a genre-defining career spanning nearly four decades. Having written the soundtrack of a generation, Clint now puts pen to paper to write, for the first time, the story of the man behind the music. 
    In his long-awaited memoir, Black shares the unfiltered, extraordinary account of his journey from a kid with a dream on the outskirts of Houston to a country music legend. From his near-death experiences as a young boy, to his decision to drop out of high school to pursue music, to countless years struggling as an unknown young artist, playing at any nightclub or hotel bar that would have him, Black’s path to success had more twists than the Texas two-step. 
    Once fame hit and the stakes got higher, Black didn’t let the pressure of big crowds, big money, or big labels steer him off course. By writing from the heart and sticking to his guns, he built a legacy on his own terms. These values proved to be Black’s north star navigating superstardom, including a difficult lawsuit against his ex-manager, Bill Ham; subsequently founding his own record label; recording with heroes such as Jimmy Buffett, Merle Haggard, and Eric Idle; his whirlwind romance and everlasting marriage with actress Lisa Hartman Black; and most recently, a critical issue with a cervical spine injury, which threatened the very thing that made him a star: his voice. 
    With vivid, deeply personal stories—all told with Black’s signature charm—he recounts how his steadfast dedication to his beliefs and his passion for music led him to success after success, and through storm after storm. For longtime fans and newcomers alike, Killin’ Time is a revelatory and rare glimpse of the iconic life and career of a once in a generation talent.
