Summary

Micro Roads explores a groundbreaking shift in architecture and urban planning: self-repairing road infrastructure. It highlights the potential of integrating technology like self-healing materials and micro-robotics to address the challenges of aging road infrastructure. Imagine roads that autonomously mend cracks using polymer asphalt infused with self-healing agents, or micro-robotic systems that detect and repair damage before it escalates. This approach promises to minimize disruptions, reduce maintenance costs, and create more sustainable urban environments.

 
The book begins by examining the limitations of current road construction and maintenance techniques. It then transitions into a detailed exploration of the science behind self-healing materials, including nanotechnology, and the engineering aspects of micro-robotic systems. Micro Roads delves into the ethical considerations and potential risks associated with deploying autonomous systems. It presents data on the cost-effectiveness and environmental impact of these technologies, making it a valuable resource for architects, engineers, urban planners, and anyone interested in the future of sustainable infrastructure.

    In 'We The Youth": Keith Haring's New York Nightlife', the second book in his Art Decades series, Dave Haslam explores how the nightlife and music of rundown downtown areas of New York in the late 1970's and early 1980's were formative influences on the life and art of Keith Haring. 
Haslam takes us on an adventure through the clubs and venues that filled Keith Haring's nights out; spaces that offered thrill, opportunities, possibly, and a sense of community. We hear how graffiti artists and DJs became inspirations to him; we meet Madonna, the B-52's, Arthur Russell, Grace Jones and Jean-Michel Basquiat; and then the mid-80's AIDS epidemic changes everything... 
Art Decades is a highly original and wide ranging series of mini books by writer, broadcaster and former Hacienda DJ, Dave Haslam. From Courtney Love to Sylvia Plath, from homelessness to cultural regeneration, the series explores a variety of subjects rooted in cities, in recent history and lived experience, and a love for music, literature, and art.
