Sinopse

Sneaker Market Boom explores the remarkable journey of sneakers from functional athletic wear to coveted collector's items and potent symbols of fashion and status. This evolution is driven by design innovation, strategic business decisions, and profound cultural influences, creating a multi-billion-dollar market. The book argues that the current sneaker market boom is a carefully constructed ecosystem, fueled by collaborations, limited releases, and digital marketing, rather than a mere trend.

 
The book's approach is interdisciplinary, blending design, business, and sociology to provide a comprehensive understanding. Readers will discover how early endorsements by sports icons like basketball players paved the way for signature sneaker lines and how advancements in materials and manufacturing enhanced both performance and aesthetic appeal. The business side dissects marketing strategies and the impact of "hype" on resale platforms. The cultural impact explores how sneakers have become a form of self-expression within hip-hop and youth culture.

 
The book progresses across chapters, first by examining design and technology, then dissecting the business of sneakers, and finally analyzing its cultural impact. Evidence is drawn from archival materials, interviews, case studies, and market research, offering practical knowledge for students, enthusiasts, and industry professionals interested in the sneaker industry, consumer culture, and the forces shaping contemporary fashion and business.

    In this richly illustrated landmark book, author and journalist Will Ellsworth-Jones documents the sold, stolen and destroyed works of Banksy, one of the most renowned and controversial artists of our time. 
    This is a book about what you can't see: the works that have disappeared entirely, whether destroyed by authorities or whisked into people's private art collections to languish on walls or in collector's vaults. These remarkable works are as elusive as their creator, but are returned here for public consumption and enjoyment.
    A victim of his own success, Banksy is famous the world over and yet more famously disdainful of the spotlight, preferring to remain anonymous. Considered by many to be one of the greatest living artists in the world and to others a rogue vandal with a political agenda, Banksy has scandalised and enlightened the art world since his acts of guerrilla art began to appear on the streets of Barton Hill in Bristol over 25 years ago. His artworks can now be found on streets across the globe, adorning the walls of some of the world's most distinguished galleries and even being sold for millions at private auctions. 
    
    
    Works unveiled in Banksy's Lost Works include:
    • The pieces painted on partially destroyed buildings around Kyiv, Ukraine, one of which has already been cut off the wall by a group of locals. 
    • Valentine's Day Mascara in Margate that has now been restored and housed in Dreamland after several interventions by Thanet District Council.
    • Banksy's disappearing rats, an early symbol of the artist routinely painted over by councils when the name Banksy was more synonymous with 'vandal' than 'artist'.
    This book, showcasing the often mysterious and occasionally mundane disappearances of works by one of the art world's more elusive figures, is a truly indispensable addition to the library of any Banksy fan. Sold, stolen or destroyed, discover Banksy's works that have disappeared from the wall.

    Strumming the Guitar Book 1 is a detailed course for beginners and upward, focusing solely on the subject of guitar strumming. Separate sections take on strumming, changing chords and coordinating chord changes while strumming, therefore maintaining a thorough approach throughout with components broken down at every level. With this incremental method, this guitar strumming book enables the beginner to absorb everything important from the start and progress consistently as the difficulty level increases.
    Guitar Strumming Techniques - Before anything else, the  basics of strumming are covered from the ground up for the beginner, assisted with professional hand drawn illustrations. Learn how to hold the plectrum for strumming, how to strum chords that require you to miss certain strings, pre-emptive chord changing, open strums and more.
    Guitar Strumming Patterns - There are 70 different guitar strumming patterns that can be used  throughout the book, all written with easy to understand, graphical, strumming diagrams.
    Reading Rhythmical Notation - Understand the common language of music by becoming familiar with rhythmical notation. Learn whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes and their equivalent rests, dotted notes, ties and the basics of time signatures. All shown with clear charts and diagrams.
    Chord Changes - Seven  groups of chord changes are included, made up almost entirely of open chords. The book starts with the easiest chord changes in which fretting finger locations can be shared, moving to chord changes in which fretting fingers relocate with the same shape, then more difficult chord changes where fretting  fingers need to relocate in independent directions, such as C major to G major open chords or Aadd9 to Dmaj7 open chords.
    Strumming Exercises and Study Pieces - Every section includes strumming exercises that combine chord changes with strumming, each section concluding with a musical study piece using the skills learnt and practised in styles of Slow Pop, Spanish style, Grunge and Country Pop. In total there are 85 strumming exercises and 10 musical study pieces, while more combinations can be found by selecting from the 70 given strumming patterns to use with them.
    Audio and Video - All exercises and musical study pieces are demonstrated with audio (downloadable 154 MB). All study pieces have a demonstration audio track and a backing audio track in which the rhythm guitar part has been removed for you to play over. Online videos (of which there are 21 in total size of 775 MB) are also used to enhance explanations.

    Hounds Of Love invites you to not only listen, but to cross the boundaries of sensory experience into realms of imagination and possibility. Side A spawned four Top 40 hit singles in the UK, ‘Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)’, ‘Cloudbusting’, ‘Hounds of Love’ and ‘The Big Sky’, some of the best-loved and most enduring compositions in Bush’s catalogue. On side B, a hallucinatory seven-part song cycle called The Ninth Wave broke away from the pop conventions of the era by using strange and vivid production techniques that plunge the listener into the psychological centre of a near-death experience. Poised and accessible, yet still experimental and complex, with Hounds Of Love Bush mastered the art of her studio-based songcraft, finally achieving full control of her creative process. When it came out in 1985, she was only 27 years old.This book charts the emergence of Kate Bush in the early-to-mid-1980s as a courageous experimentalist, a singularly expressive recording artist and a visionary music producer. Track-by-track commentaries focus on the experience of the album from the listener’s point of view, drawing attention to the art and craft of Bush’s songwriting, production and sound design. It considers the vast impact and influence that Hounds Of Love has had on music cultures and creative practices through the years, underlining the artist’s importance as a barrier-smashing, template-defying, business-smart, record-breaking, never-compromising role model for artists everywhere.
