Escobar

Após a trágica morte de um amigo, Escobar, o narrador que dá nome ao primeiro romance do jornalista Márwio Câmara, resolve escrever alguns fatos que marcaram seus últimos meses. Dentro desse processo de expurgação terapêutica, o professor de Literatura revive uma série de questões de seio amoroso, sexual e familiar, que perscrutará toda a engenharia labiríntica da trama. Dividido em cenas, o romance apresenta enredo fragmentado, que, em alguns momentos, soa como um misto de diário, poesia e roteiro cinematográfico. É nessa hibridação de linguagens que o leitor vai experienciar as vivências amorosas de Escobar assim como a sua estranha obsessão por uma poeta, nomeada apenas como R. Porém, o grande eixo da narrativa está na amizade entre o protagonista e o melancólico Bruno, homossexual não assumido que vive uma paixão platônica por um amigo do trabalho. O romance de Câmara trata sobre as complexidades do amor e do desejo humano em linguagem poética e inovadora, com textos de orelha e quarta capa do escritor Marcelino Freire; e da professora e pesquisadora Dirce Waltrick do Amarante.

Mario Giacomelli

A new look at the work of Mario Giacomelli, one of Italy’s foremost photographers of the twentieth century. Mario Giacomelli (1925–2000) was born into poverty and lived his entire life in Senigallia, a seaside town along the Adriatic coast in Italy’s Marche region. He purchased his first camera in 1953 and quickly gained recognition for the raw expressiveness of his images. His preference for grainy, high-contrast film and paper produced bold, geometric compositions with glowing whites and deep blacks. Giacomelli most frequently focused his camera on the people, landscapes, and seascapes of the Marche, and he often spent several years expanding and reinterpreting a single body of work or repurposing an image made for one series for inclusion in another. By applying titles derived from poetry and literature to his photographs, he transformed ordinary subjects into meditations on time, memory, and existence. Spanning the photographer’s earliest pictures to those made in the final years of his life, this publication celebrates the J. Paul Getty Museum’s extensive Giacomelli holdings, formed in large part through a significant gift from Daniel Greenberg and Susan Steinhauser.

Mario Lavista

Composer, pianist, editor, writer, and pedagogue Mario Lavista (1943-2021) was a central figure of the cultural and artistic scene in Mexico and one of the leading Ibero-American composers of his generation. His music is often described as evocative and poetic, noted for his meticulous attention to timbre and motivic permutation, and his creative trajectory was characterized by its intersections with the other arts, particularly poetry and painting. Lavista was a relational composer; he did not write music as a private enterprise but for and alongside people with whom he established close relations. Understanding analysis as an affective practice, author Ana R. Alonso-Minutti explores the in...

The Game Boy Advance platform as computational system and cultural artifact, from its 2001 release through hacks, mods, emulations, homebrew afterlives. In 2002, Nintendo of America launched an international marketing campaign for the Game Boy Advance that revolved around the slogan “Who Are You?”—asking potential buyers which Nintendo character, game, or even device they identified with and attempting to sell a new product by exploiting players' nostalgic connections to earlier ones. Today, nearly two decades after its release, and despite the development of newer and more powerful systems, Nintendo's Game Boy Advance lives on, through a community that continues to hack, modify, emula...

Karate Kata: For the Transmission of High-Level Combative Skills, Vol. 2

We all know the meaning of the word kata. Even to nonpractitioners it is a familiar karate practice. Plus, the word has long been incorporated into the English language. For this reason I choose to write the plural as “katas,” and not follow the Japanese tradition where “kata” can be both singular or plural. By doing this I’ve ruffled feathers already, since many hold such a sacred bond with the time and place where karate took shape. Trouble with one word? Now how about the whole Okinawan martial tradition as passed on through katas? A kata is much like a family jewel that has passed down through generations. It holds a significance that is difficult to decipher, and many dispute ...
