  The Bauhaus Movement is one of the most influential art and design movements of the 20th century, shaping not only the world of architecture, but also industrial design, graphic design, and education. Founded in 1919 in Weimar, Germany, the Bauhaus school represented a radical shift in the way artists and designers approached their work, bridging the gap between art and industrial production. The term "Bauhaus," which translates to "building house," symbolized the school's fundamental belief in the fusion of craftsmanship and design with new technological advances. It advocated for an integrated, functional approach to design, emphasizing simplicity, clean lines, and the use of modern materials such as steel, glass, and concrete. 
  At the heart of the Bauhaus movement was the idea of total design, an approach that sought to unify art, craft, and industry into a single cohesive whole. The Bauhaus school emphasized collaboration between artists, architects, and designers, breaking down the traditional boundaries between fine arts and applied arts. This approach was revolutionary at a time when art was still often considered a separate entity from industrial production. The school encouraged students to experiment with new techniques and materials, while maintaining a commitment to functional design that was both aesthetically pleasing and usable in the modern world. 
  One of the defining features of the Bauhaus movement was its focus on the intersection of art and technology. The early 20th century saw rapid advancements in industrial production and materials science, which gave rise to new possibilities in design. Bauhaus educators believed that the application of these new technologies should be at the core of creative work. This philosophy led to the creation of iconic pieces of modern furniture, groundbreaking architectural designs, and revolutionary typography that defined the aesthetic of the era.

  TAKE IT EASY™ isn't about a new way of doing improv, nor is it meant to replace your own style or approach. Instead it's a mindset that can inform your performance and your approach to improvisation. The exercises and ideas in here will give you more freedom onstage, help you be less attached to the outcome and more in the moment, and generally see you having more fun. 
  This is not an ‘introduction to improv’ book, nor is it a how-to manual. This book is a collection of thoughts and observations designed to give people a different perspective on their craft, and it also includes games and exercises for people to do on their own or to bring to their group to reinforce some of the principles and ideas and thoughts expressed herein. 
  Improv is, paradoxically, a pursuit that requires both dedication and an absence of trying. For when a player is trying too hard, they will inevitably fail. This book, by longtime improviser and improv teacher Ryan Millar, is filled with stories, thoughts, advice, and exercises to help players improve their improv, and do more by doing less.  
  TAKE IT EASY™ is the chillest way to supercharge your improv.

  The Big Book of Pyramids Worldwide

  This book is intended as a survey of pyramids and possible pyramids worldwide. There are more than 50 different pyramids and sites reviewed. 
   I’ve broken this information into three sections as follows: 
   Best Known Pyramids-Those which are famous throughout the world and almost everyone knows about. 
   Lesser Known Accepted Pyramids-These are real documented sites which experts agree are real pyramids but not that well known throughout the world. 
   Possible Pyramid Constructions-These are likely pyramid constructions but not accepted by mainstream archeologists. Some are even the products of wishful thinking. However, all of these candidate structures I could find are included. 
   Many of the pyramid descriptions are from publically available articles. Some of the descriptions are also from my analysis of the individual structures and constructions. 
   In the book’s summary, there are also some discussions of other issues like pyramid ages, alignments, and who built them.
