Synopsis

In "Vision by Radio, Radio Photographs, Radio Photograms," C. Francis Jenkins explores the pioneering intersections of radio technology and visual representation. Jenkins, a key figure in the early developments of both radio broadcasting and early motion picture technologies, employs a blend of scientific inquiry and imaginative speculation. The book is structured around Jenkins' innovative theories on how sound waves could be transformed into visual images, reflecting the avant-garde spirit of the early 20th century. He engages with contemporaneous debates surrounding the nature of perception, media, and the burgeoning field of electrical engineering, articulating a vision that precedes the modern conception of multimedia art. C. Francis Jenkins, often overlooked in the annals of media history, was a prolific inventor and one of the foremost thinkers in radio technology during its inception. His passion for the convergence of sound and sight stemmed from his experience in the field of engineering and a keen interest in the potential of emerging technologies to enhance human communication. His bold experiments laid foundational concepts that would inform the future of visual media. Readers intrigued by the synthesis of technology and art will find Jenkins' work not only prescient but profoundly liberating. This book serves as a vital historical document that challenges conventional distinctions between auditory and visual experience, urging contemporary readers to reconsider the boundaries of sensory perception. A must-read for scholars and enthusiasts of media theory, Jenkins' insights remain remarkably relevant today.

Self-Portrait

Celia Paul

A rich, penetrating memoir about the author's relationship with a flawed but influential figure—the painter Lucian Freud—and the satisfactions and struggles of a life lived through art. 
 
 
 
One of Britain's most important contemporary painters, Celia Paul has written a reflective, intimate memoir of her life as an artist. Self-Portrait tells the artist's story in her own words, drawn from early journal entries as well as memory, of her childhood in India and her days as a art student at London's Slade School of Fine Art; of her intense decades-long relationship with the older esteemed painter Lucian Freud and the birth of their son; of the challenges of motherhood, the unresolvable conflict between caring for a child and remaining committed to art; of the "invisible skeins between people," the profound familial connections Paul communicates through her paintings of her mother and sisters; and finally, of the mystical presence in her own solitary vision of the world around her. 
 
 
 
Self-Portrait is a powerful, liberating evocation of a life and of a life-long dedication to art. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

One Step BeyondVolume One

Merwin Gerard

Created by Merwin Gerard and produced by Collier Young, One Step Beyond was hosted by John Newland, "your guide to the supernatural" (also credited as "Our guide into the world of the unknown"). Newland, who also directed every episode, presented tales that explored paranormal events and various situations that defied "logical" explanation. Unlike other anthology programs, the ABC network series episodes were presented in the form of straightforward 30-minute docudramas, all said to be based on "human record" (implying historically factual events); however, the incidents depicted were closer to popular urban legends dramatized for the screen. The program included the corporate name of sponsor Alcoa in its title for its initial run. In syndication, the program title became simply One Step Beyond.   This volume includes Four tales of the supernatural from worlds beyond our own. Included are: Episode One: The Bride Posessed - A bride begins to predict features of an area she's never seen.  Audio from the television broadcast of January 20th, 1959; Episode Two: Night of April 14th - A girl dreams of drowning in the ocean, then learns her fiance plans a honeymoon for them -- aboard the Titanic.  Audio from the television broadcast of January 27th, 1959; Episode Three: Emergency Only - Coming out of a hypnotic trance, Ellen Larrabee predicts a dangerous train trip for a skeptical witness.  Audio from the television broadcast of February 3rd, 1959; and Episode Four: The Dark Room - A Woman photographer is almost strangled by a man she doesn't know.  Audio from the television broadcast of February 10th, 1959.
