Sinopsis

Mosaic Designs explores the captivating world of mosaics, revealing how artists transform materials like glass and stone into stunning visuals. It delves into the art, design, and techniques that underpin mosaic creation from historical roots to modern innovations. The book shows us that mosaics are not just decorations, but a sophisticated form of artistic expression. For example, the book examines how mosaic techniques evolved since their prominence in Roman and Byzantine art. The book systematically explores mosaic creation, beginning with materials like tesserae and smalti, plus the essential tools and techniques. It progresses through a comprehensive history, from ancient Roman pavements to contemporary artists, analyzing key design principles, such as color theory and spatial arrangement. This approach provides readers with both historical context and practical insights, enabling them to appreciate and even create their own mosaic art.

Talking Heads' Fear of Music

Jonathan Lethem

It's the summer of 1979. A 15-year-old boy listens to WNEW on the radio in his bedroom in Brooklyn. A monotone voice (it's the singer's) announces into dead air in between songs ""The Talking Heads have a new album, it's called Fear of Music"" - and everything spins outward from that one moment. Jonathan Lethem treats Fear of Music (the third album by the Talking Heads, and the first produced by Brian Eno) as a masterpiece - edgy, paranoid, funky, addictive, rhythmic, repetitive, spooky and fun. He scratches obsessively at the album's songs, guitars, rhythms, lyrics, packaging, downtown origins, and legacy, showing how Fear of Music hints at the directions (positive and negative) the band would take in the future. Lethem transports us again to the New York City of another time - tackling one of his great adolescent obsessions and illuminating the ways in which we fall in and out of love with works of art.
