Summary

"Projection Magic" takes readers on a fascinating journey through the evolution of projection technology, from the humble magic lantern to today's cutting-edge digital systems. This comprehensive exploration reveals how these innovations have fundamentally shaped entertainment, education, and visual communication across three centuries.

 
The book masterfully combines technical insight with historical context, making complex concepts accessible to both technology enthusiasts and general readers. The narrative unfolds chronologically through three major technological eras: the mechanical age of film projectors, the electronic revolution of video systems, and the digital transformation marked by LCD, DLP, and laser technologies.

 
Drawing from patent archives, technical documentation, and pioneer interviews, the book illuminates crucial developments like the standardization of early cinema and the breakthrough of digital light processing. Particularly intriguing is the examination of how wartime optical innovations influenced projection advancement and how the rise of home entertainment drove consumer projector development.

 
The book stands out for its practical approach to technical concepts, offering valuable insights for audio-visual professionals while maintaining accessibility for general readers. Through detailed case studies and real-world examples, readers gain a comprehensive understanding of projection system selection, optimization, and maintenance.

 
The work concludes by addressing contemporary challenges, including the competition between projection technology and LED screens, providing a thoughtful perspective on the future of visual display technology.

    *2026 Selah Audio Finalist!!*Brent Maher, who has produced seven Grammy Award winning records and over twenty #1 singles has written this musical novel, “Night of the Orphan Train”, bringing to life the little-known story of 250,000 homeless orphans who were swept off the streets of New York City and shipped off in boxcars to every state in the union from 1854 until the early 1920s.

We follow their journeys from their childhood to young adulthood with the Orphan Trains, World War I, and Angels Unawares profoundly impacting each of their lives.

    With his fiery piano-playing style and powerful stage presence, Jerry Lee Lewis enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame. Although his time as a relevant artist was comparably brief, that short time in the sun was nothing short of revolutionary. While his run lasted, Lewis played a pivotal role in forging what would become classic rock and roll and rockabilly.Lewis burst onto the music scene with his 1957 hit "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On," which was quickly followed by the iconic "Great Balls of Fire." Both songs exude an undeniable drive and raw energy that fueled a musical revolution. It was the fleeting yet spectacular success of Lewis and his fellow 1950s musical pioneers that paved the way for even greater musical achievements in the future. In this book, we delve into the life and legacy of "The Killer," Jerry Lee Lewis, in all its glory.

    NO RULES. NO PROBLEM. 
     
     
     
    Bruce Lee remains the gold standard that all martial artists are compared to. But could he actually fight? World Champions in karate competition have gone on record to point out that he never once competed in tournaments. Were his martial abilities merely a trick of the camera? 
     
     
     
    For the first time ever, Bruce Lee authority and bestselling author John Little takes a hard look at Bruce Lee's real-life fights to definitively answer these questions with over thirty years of research that took him thousands of miles. Little has tracked down over thirty witnesses to the real fights of Bruce Lee as well as those who were present at his many sparring sessions (in which he was never defeated) against the very best martial artists in the world. 
     
     
     
    From the mean streets of Hong Kong, to challenge matches in Seattle and Oakland, to the sets of his iconic films where he was challenged repeatedly, this is the incredible real-life fighting record of the man known as the "Little Dragon," who may well have been the greatest fighter of the twentieth century.

    What Kirkus describes as a "masterful revelation about life and art imitating each other in maintenance and repair" in a starred review, Dwell Time is an illuminating debut memoir by one of the few prominent Latinas in the field of art and architectural conservation; a moving portrait of a Cuban Jewish family’s intergenerational trauma; and a story about repair and healing that will forever change how you see the objects and places we cherish and how we manage damage and loss. 
     
    Renowned art conservator Rosa Lowinger spent a difficult childhood in Miami among people whose losses in the Cuban revolution, and earlier by the decimation of family in the Holocaust, clouded all family life. 
     
    After moving away to escape the “cloying exile’s nostalgia,” Lowinger discovered the unique field of art conservation, which led her to work in Tel Aviv, Philadelphia, Rome, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Charleston, Marfa, South Dakota, and Port-Au-Prince. Eventually returning to Havana for work, Lowinger suddenly finds herself embarking on a remarkable journey of family repair that begins, as it does in conservation, with an understanding of the origins of damage. 
     
    Inspired by and structured similarly to Primo Levi’s The Periodic Table, this first memoir by a working art conservator is organized by chapters based on the materials Lowinger handles in her thriving private practice – Marble, Limestone, Bronze, Ceramics, Concrete, Silver, Wood, Mosaic, Paint, Aluminum, Terrazzo, Steel, Glass and Plastics.  Through Lowinger’s relentless clear-eyed efforts to be the best practitioner possible while squarely facing her fraught personal and work relationships, she comes to terms with her identity as Cuban and Jewish, American and Latinx.
