Synopsis

"Light and Color" explores the physics behind our perception of color, revealing how light waves interact with matter and our eyes. It traces the journey from natural phenomena like rainbows, caused by light dispersion, to technological advancements such as LED lighting, highlighting the importance of understanding wavelength, frequency, and amplitude. The book argues that color is less an inherent property of objects and more a product of physics combined with the human visual system.

 
The book begins by establishing the fundamental properties of light waves before examining the human visual system and its interpretation of different wavelengths as colors. It delves into practical applications like LED technology, emphasizing its impact on energy efficiency.

 
"Light and Color" distinguishes itself by integrating the physics of light with the biology of color perception and the technology of light emission, providing a holistic understanding often missing in specialized treatments. The book's approach is informative and accessible, making complex concepts understandable through diagrams, graphs, and real-world examples. It connects physics with biology, chemistry, and engineering, showcasing the pervasive nature of light and color in different domains.

 
By understanding these principles, readers can apply them to real-world situations, from color mixing in art to improving energy efficiency in lighting systems.

    An accessible yet erudite deep dive into how platforms are remaking experiences of death 
     
     
      
    Since the internet's earliest days, people have died and mourned online. In quiet corners of past iterations of the web, the dead linger. But attempts at preserving the data of the dead are often ill-fated, for websites and devices decay and die, just as people do. Death disrupts technologists' plans for platforms. It reveals how digital production is always collaborative, undermining the entrepreneurial platform economy and highlighting the flaws of techno-solutionism. 
     
     
      
    Big Tech has authority not only over people's lives but over their experiences of death as well. Ordinary users and workers, though, advocate for changes to tech companies' policies around death. Drawing on internet histories along with interviews with founders of digital afterlife startups, caretakers of illness blogs, and transhumanist tinkerers, the technology scholar Tamara Kneese takes listeners on a vibrant tour of the ways that platforms and people work together to care for digital remains. What happens when commercial platforms encounter the messiness of mortality?

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    The Plague explores the profound changes and enduring continuities that shaped European society in the wake of the Black Death and other crises of the 1300s. Through a series of thematic chapters, the book examines the resilience of communities, the evolution of social and economic structures, the persistence of faith, and the seeds of cultural and intellectual transformation. Far from being an age of unmitigated darkness, the fourteenth century emerges as a dynamic period of adaptation, creativity, and the quiet beginnings of the modern world.
