Intent on breaking down restrictive boundaries and rebelling against the whole limiting notion of genre, the writers in this collection create for themselves a space in which wild experimentation can take place.
The Alt. Cyberpunk. Chatsubo Anthology
Alt.Cyberpunk.Chatsubo… A low rent, high tech literary Usenet newsgroup hiding in a dark bar behind a red door called Charlie in a back alley of on-line culture. The Alt.Cyberpunk.Chatsubo Anthology is a collection of writings from the hard edge, from the dingy city streets to distant planets or right down into the inner workings of the human mind. The stories within are the end result of a global collective. We come from different backgrounds, different cultures and different countries. We have in common a desire to share our works with each other, and other connoisseurs of the written word who like to sit and read the tales we have to tell.
Techno
America. today. walking through the city. life is modular. mix and match friends. cell phones. disposable computers. bored kids creating self tailored disorders. finally, sexuality is not an issue. besides its a currency in itself. accelerating technology. and music. and raves. and djs. life is a record where the turntable needle plays only the good parts. floating political communities of winnable radicals where information is prestige. so some thing. wish. want. and believe. isolated micro-communes. a global mega corporation with only three employees. girls who study the history of the united states through all of its 2 am parties. guys who try to forget life from day to day and unknowingly sell their memories on the emotional black market. shopping is a lifestyle. design is a nation. nanotechnology in the hands of the young. some checkout mainframe computers from the local library. others obsess over new versions of the united states that upload daily across the internet.
Creative Practices for Visual Artists
Contrary to popular belief, the practice of art isn’t just a product of innate talent or artistic vision; artwork emerges from an intentionally constructed and maintained artistic practice. Developed from interviews with more than 75 mid-career artists, Creative Practices for Visual Artists examines the methods and approaches highly successful artists use to stay creatively robust for a lifetime. Offering practical strategies and concrete solutions, it also looks at the impacts of digital and social media, as well as recent changes in the educational system that can hinder the formation of a strong artistic practice. Artist and educator Kenneth Steinbach addresses key issues such as: the role of embodied research and non-objective experimentation; reframing one's approach to studio time; forms of productive conflict; the positive role of anxiety; and the importance of failure for the artist. The book will be useful to students and emerging artists, the instructors that teach them, and established artists looking to develop stronger studio habits. The companion website, www.creativepracticesbook.com, provides links to artists' websites and further information.
