Sinopse

Automated Parking Systems explores the potential of robotic parking to revolutionize urban landscapes and address parking scarcity. It examines automated parking systems (APS) as a technologically advanced solution, offering optimized space utilization compared to traditional parking garages. One intriguing fact is that APS can significantly reduce the space required for parking, potentially freeing up valuable land for other urban development purposes. The book also highlights how APS contribute to smart city initiatives by reducing traffic congestion and promoting sustainable practices. The book argues that APS are both technologically feasible and economically viable, presenting them as a forward-thinking alternative for urban planners and architects. It begins by introducing the fundamental principles of APS operation and design. Later chapters delve into specific technologies, integration of sensors and control systems, and architectural considerations for various building types. The book progresses to analyze real-world case studies and economic feasibility, offering a comprehensive view of APS. This book uniquely blends engineering precision with architectural vision, providing a holistic perspective on APS. It moves beyond technical descriptions to address the aesthetic and functional integration of these systems into urban environments. By providing a comprehensive and evidence-based overview of APS, the book offers practical insights for planning, design, and implementation, making it a key resource for professionals interested in architecture, technology, and urban development.

Film Trivia Metaverse

MEMENTO 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
Memento is a psychological thriller directed by Christopher Nolan that follows Leonard Shelby, a man suffering from anterograde amnesia, which prevents him from forming new memories. Unable to remember anything beyond a few minutes, Leonard embarks on a quest to find the person responsible for the attack that killed his wife. Using Polaroid photographs and tattoos as his only means of retaining information, Leonard struggles to piece together the truth. The film explores themes of memory, perception, and self-deception, with its nonlinear narrative structure reflecting the fragmented and unreliable nature of Leonard's memory. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“Jennifer Todd, impressed by Carrie-Anne Moss's performance in "The Matrix," suggested her for the role of Natalie. Despite competition for the role, Christopher Nolan cast Moss, believing she added depth to the character.” 
  
“The idea for the film’s subject matter emerged when Christopher Nolan and his brother Jonathan took a road trip. By the time they reached Los Angeles, the entire screenplay had been discussed between them.” 
  
“Although the opening sequence is played backward, all sound effects are normal, except for Teddy’s scream, which is reversed.” 
  
“Guy Pearce improvised many of the voiceovers for Leonard’s character.”

Elton John's Blue Moves

Matthew Restall

By 1976, Elton John was the best-selling recording artist and the highest-grossing touring act in the world. With seven #1 albums in a row and a reputation as a riveting piano-pounding performer, the former Reggie Dwight had gone with dazzling speed from the London suburbs to the pinnacles of rock stardom, his songs never leaving the charts, his sold-out shows packed with adoring fans. Then he released Blue Moves, and it all came crashing down.Was the commercially disappointing and poorly reviewed double album to blame? Can one album shoot down a star? No, argues Matthew Restall; Blue Moves is a four-sided masterpiece, as fantastic as Captain Fantastic, as colorful as Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, a showcase for the three elements--piano-playing troubadour, full orchestra, rock band--with which Elton John and his collaborators redirected the evolution of popular music. Instead, both album and career were derailed by a perfect storm of circumstances: Elton’s decisions to stop touring and start his own label; the turbulent shiftings of popular culture in the punk era; the minefield of attitudes toward celebrity and sexuality. The closer we get to Blue Moves, the better we understand the world into which it was born--and vice versa. Might that be true of all albums?

Monument Eternal

Alice Coltrane, Ashley Kahn

The long-awaited reissue of Alice Coltrane’s original spiritual teachings and reflections, which provide powerful insight into her transcendent music, cherished by millions across the globe.  
ALICE COLTRANE (1937–2007) was a composer, master of various musical instruments, improviser, spiritual leader, and wife of John Coltrane. Throughout her adult life, she worked within and combined a broad range of musical genres, including gospel, R&B, bebop, free jazz, Indian devotional song, and Western art music. She recorded more than twenty full-length albums for Impulse and Warner Bros. Her music speaks to her experiences as a child playing for church congregations in Detroit; the transcendent and mind-bending avant-garde improvisations she performed with her husband John Coltrane; and her religious pilgrimages to India.  
When Monument Eternal was originally published in 1977, Alice Coltrane was living in Southern California and had recently become a swami, building and nurturing an alternative spiritual community. In these pages, she says that the book is “based upon the soul’s realizations in Absolute Consciousness and its spiritual relationships with the Supreme One.” Monument Eternal offers deep insight into Coltrane’s tremendous musical output and shines a light on her transformation from Alice McLeod, Detroit church organist and bebopper, to sage thought leader Swami Turiyasangitananda. It also reflects the extraordinary fluidity of American religious customs in the mid- and late-twentieth century.  
Akashic’s long-awaited reissue of Monument Eternal includes a new foreword by Ashley Kahn.

Marlon Brando in Private - 'I...

George Englund

'Riveting' Kirk DouglasFrom his first Oscar, Marlon Brando built an impenetrable fortress around his private life: unauthorised releases—or snapshots of him, even by friends—were forbidden. George Englund was Brando's closest friend for almost fifty years and the last person to visit him before his death. Based on deeply personal stories from the death of their sons to Jackie Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, he draws Brando's life as only they knew it. A young actor emerges who was beautiful in every way; driven by his instinctive talent to break new ground, athletic, muscular, seductive, intelligent and generous. And, from early on, seeds of self-destruction began to grow.
