  Do you like scary movies? Have you ever wondered why? 
   
   
   
  In Nightmare Fuel, Nina Nesseth explores the strange and often unexpected science of fear through the lenses of psychology and physiology. How do horror films get under our skin? And why do we keep coming back for more? 
   
   
   
  Horror films promise an experience: fear. But how exactly do filmmakers pull this off? The truth is, there's more to it than just loud noises and creepy images. 
   
   
   
  With the affection of a true horror fan and the critical analysis of a scientist, Nesseth explains how audiences engage horror with both their brains and bodies, and teases apart the elements that make horror films tick. Nightmare Fuel covers everything from jump scares to creature features, serial killers to the undead, and the fears that stick around to those that fade over time. 
   
   
   
  With in-depth discussions and spotlight features of some of horror's most popular films—from classics like The Exorcist to modern hits like Hereditary—and interviews with directors, film editors, composers, and horror academics, Nightmare Fuel is a deep dive into the science of fear, a celebration of the genre, and a survival guide for going to bed after the credits roll.

  Encargos comunes (inglés)

  "Encargos Comunes" se presenta como un proyecto editorial que resume, a partir de tres obras de arquitectura, la práctica e investigación desarrollada por la oficina de arquitectura Taller25 en torno a esta profesión y su vínculo con la clase media contemporánea chilena. Estas obras identifican y visibilizan tres demandas sobre la vivienda: una Construcción nueva, una Reforma y una Ampliación, realizadas en comunas que normalmente se conocen como "Pericentrales" y "Periféricas" de la región Metropolitana (Lo Prado, San Bernardo y Maipú), cuyos mandantes o dueñas/os se inscriben en lo que estadísticamente se define como la clase media, transformándose así en un compendio atípico dentro de la disciplina de la arquitectura. De esta manera, la publicación propone una discusión crítica sobre la producción de la vivienda, y no de cualquier vivienda, sino de las más comunes de todas y, paradójicamente, menos abordadas desde el campo editorial y de divulgación en el área, como pueden ser las operaciones sobre la vivienda de y para los sectores medios.

  "So sensitive and descriptive. I loved the forms and images that came to my mind as I read it!" 
  Alejandra Mantiñan - for the chapter The meaning of your personal-development path in tango 
  Connection, expression, wonderful tandas; what if you could get more of this? 
  In this unique audiobook, which became the most translated tango book in the world, Dimitris takes you on a journey of exploring connection, awareness, and meaning in tango. 
  In its short chapters, tango philosophy and meaningful stories merge with practical conclusions in a personal conversation that can change the way you experience your tango forever. 
  This audiobook is for those who look for meaning, connection, and awareness in tango; in one word: Tangofulness. 
  It is for those who know how it is to be hugged and feel safe; for those who have experienced a few best-tanda-of-my-life moments and want more of them. 
  Above all, it is for those who want to explore the origin of meaningful connection in argentine tango, not as an intellectual process, but as a practical way to experience tangofulness more often and in greater intensity. 
  Dimitris Bronowski took his first tango steps in 2009. 
  In 2019 he quit his job to dedicate himself to his passion: tango. He is the publisher of the bestselling book Tango Tips by the Maestros, a tango blogger, creator of the podcast and newsletter 'The Curious Tanguero', and a student of tango. His vision is to help one million people experience moments of meaning through tango.
