Reality Bytes
Reality Bytes is a collection of essays by Bart Lootsma, written in the years from 1998 to 2009. "Byte" is a unit of digital information used in information technology and most commonly consists of eight bits. Reality Bytes is also the title of an essay by Bart Lootsma, in which he investigates the relationship between society and architects and town planners. Bart Lootsma, Professor of Architecture as well as architectural historian, critic and curator, is one of the most multi-faceted figures amongst contemporary architectural theorists. He has produced numerous publications, including "Superdutch", an appraisal of contemporary architecture in the Netherlands published in 2000. In Reality Bytes he has now for the first time compiled hitherto (mostly) unpublished texts on architectural theory, on Second Modernism, on populism and architecture, on landscape architecture and on the changing role of architects in society.

At Home Afloat
Considering accounts written by Northwest Coast marine tourists between 1861 and 1990, Nancy Pagh examines the ways that gender influences the roles women play at sea, the spaces they occupy on boats, and the language they use to describe their experiences, their natural surroundings, and their contact with Native peoples. Unique features of this book include its interdisciplinary nature and its combination of scholarly information and a style that general readers will appreciate. The text is engaging but also serves to make fresh and relevant links between scholarship in diverse areas of inquiry; for example, Western Canadian and American history, feminist geography, post-colonial theory, and women and environments.
Brad's Jewels
Brad Lowe, a New York City socialite wanted what his parents had, love, compassion for each other and the finer things in life. While stationed with the United States Air Force as a B52 co-pilot during the Vietnam War, he fell in love with Cantana, a nineteen-year-old Thai girl while on Rest and Recuperation leave. After losing the love of Cantana, he continued his search, which led him to success, love and romantic failures. Cantana’s memory continued plaguing him for years and played a huge role in his path to become one of the world’s renowned jewelers thus creating what most women in the world want, ‘Jewelry’. In the end, it was a question that his mother asked that led Brad to the love of his life while opening a store in Dallas Texas. Afterwards, he received a letter from Bangkok that interrupted his life and drew him back to Thailand. What he found in Bangkok took him by total a surprise.

Customize
Everywhere we see evidence of standardisation, the serial production of goods and services, uniformity across the globe, and people are beginning to react against this trend. The wish to alter, modify, improve, and distort the standard model is becoming increasingly apparent, and it applies as much to products, building components or plans for town development, as to cultural commonplaces and rituals. This publication provides fascinating reports on some of the rebellious strategies that have been discovered in towns such as Paris, Wuppertal, Seoul and London. Interviews with architects in Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Spain, France and the USA reveal a subversive attitude, which is no longer prepared to accept uniform standards and globalization to the detriment of individuality and idiosyncrasy.
