  "Dale writes candidly about the challenges she's faced and what she found works. Staying Composed is a treasure trove of practical strategies for moving your artistic career forward... I recommend Staying Composed not only for composers, but for performers, writers, and any other creatives. Too many of us harbor fantasies of a short cut to 'making it,' instead of building our own career success, step by step, from where we are right now. Thank you, Dale, for writing this book to help us on the journey." —Angela Myles Beeching, author of Beyond Talent: Creating a Successful Career in Music 
  All artists have doubts and anxieties. What are yours? Managing procrastination, anxiety, and creative blocks? Knowing how to trust your work? Dealing with other people? Balancing the need to push through to the end of a work while keeping your health and sanity? Handling rejection . . . and your own success? 
  Dale Trumbore has faced each of these issues, and Staying Composed: Overcoming Anxiety and Self-Doubt Within a Creative Life is her answer. With humor and understanding, Dale breaks down each obstacle to a creative career and presents workable strategies for a long-range, manageable, and meaningful life in the arts.

  Domi, a suburban wanker, joins a street marketing company. There, he has a genius idea that will make a mess without limits. If you are curious of French underground culture, graffiti, slang, riots, art & revolution, this is your book. 
  "I was in a school called "bourgeois". And in the said school, I was automatically excluded by the associations of young rich white Parisians who had the art of intrigue and treachery in their blood. And all this beautiful world looked at each other in the white of the eye while rolling cigarettes and saying to themselves: "What the fuck am I doing here? Big, big doubt about the merits of decentralization. At least it kept me from getting up at noon, a bit like a civil servant reassured not to be unemployed..."

  Our Vampires Ourselves

  Nina Auerbach shows how every age embraces the vampire it needs, and gets the vampire it deserves. Working with a wide range of texts, as well as movies and television, Auerbach locates vampires at the heart of our national experience and uses them as a lens for viewing the last two hundred years of Anglo-American cultural history.“[Auerbach] has seen more Hammer movies than I (or the monsters) have had steaming hot diners, encountered more bloodsuckers than you could shake a stick at, even a pair of crossed sticks, such as might deter a very sophisticated ogre, a hick from the Moldavian boonies....Auerbach has dissected and deconstructed them with the tender ruthlessness of a hungry chef, with cogency and wit.”—Eric Korn, Times Literary Supplement”This seductive work offers profound insights into many of the urgent concerns of our time and forces us to confront the serious meanings that we invest, and seek, in even the shadiest manifestations of the eroticism of death.”—Wendy Doniger, The Nation”A vigorous, witty look at the undead as cultural icons.”—Kirkus Review”In case anyone should think this book is merely a boring lit-crit exposition...Auerbach sets matters straight in her very first paragraph. ’What vampires are in any given generation,’ she writes, ’is a part of what I am and what my times have become. This book is a history of Anglo-American culture through its mutating vampires.’...Her book really takes off.”—Maureen Duffy, New York Times Book Review

  Industrial design plays a pivotal role in modern industry by significantly influencing product functionality, aesthetics, user experience, and market competitiveness. One of the primary contributions of industrial design is the enhancement of product functionality and usability. Designers achieve this by thoroughly understanding user needs and behaviors, which allows them to create products that are intuitive and easy to use. This not only boosts customer satisfaction but also reduces the demand for customer support. 
    
  The aesthetic appeal and brand identity of a product are also heavily shaped by industrial design. A well-designed product can greatly enhance a brand’s image and market position, as the integration of form and function results in visually appealing products that stand out. This visual attractiveness is a critical factor in consumer decision-making and fostering brand loyalty. 
    
  Innovation and differentiation are crucial in a competitive market, and industrial designers play a key role here by merging creative thinking with technical expertise. This fusion leads to the development of unique features and functionalities that distinguish products from those of competitors.
