Ode to Construction ? Abstraction in the Digital Age' explores the intersections of graphic design and art through the means of generative code, gesturing playfully and melancholically towards the foundational legacies of the Suprematist and Constructivist movements of the early 20th century.00At once a book, website, and exhibition, 'Ode to Construction' demonstrates the fluidity of design?s materializations within the conditions of the digital, moving effortlessly between screen, print, and space. By reanimating the formal strategies of modernist abstraction, graphic designer Polina Joffe probes the technical and social registers of design today.00Exhibition: Onomatopee, Eindhoven, The Netherlands (08.10.-01.11.2020).
A Kirkus Reviews Best Book An NCTE Notable Poetry Book Fourteen poems compiled by award-winning poet and anthologist Lee Bennett Hopkins introduce readers to the various construction people who collaborate to create a high-rise hotel building, from architect to crane operator to glaziers and more. How does an empty lot transform into a new hotel? This anthology begins with a busy construction site, and an architect's (and her daughter's) dreams drawn on blueprint paper. Next, workers with huge machines--backhoes, dump trucks, cement mixers, etc.--roll in. Poems full of noise and action describe every step of the construction process. From welders and carpenters building the skeleton of the building to plumbers and electricians making its insides work, this book celebrates people and equipment working together to build something magnificent.

"From the ancient Akashic Records, renowned psychic Edgar Cayce gives an amazingly detailed and fascinating vision into the legendary world of Atlantis and its extraordinary people. The section on the people and places of Atlantis is exclusive to Cayce's visions into this celebrated paradise. Cayce's readings describe the powerful crystal; the flying machines that could soar through the air, under water, and out into space; the energy generators that harnessed the sun's rays and channeled them into building a magnificent country of luxury, wealth, and peace. Cayce's discourses describe how the Atlanteans rejuvenated their bodies regularly, allowing them to live hundreds of years longer than we do today. But he also tells of how this great culture fell from grace and power, destroying itself and its continent in the process. In a strangely prophetic discourse, Cayce says that many ancient Atlanteans are reincarnating in the world today, bringing with them both the good and evil of that ancient land. Drs. Gregory and Lora Little, and John Van Auken present this story in an absorbing narrative of the legends of Atlantis and the latest discoveries in the ongoing search for remnants of the lost continent. The book contains over a hundred illustrations--some never published before. Included in the story of Atlantis are vignettes of the forgotten lands of Mu and Lemuria, the legend of Lilith and Amilius, Plato's history, and strange creatures of Atlantean lore. This book includes a complete description of and update on the three Atlantean record caches that Edgar Cayce identified and the modern-day explorations seeking to find these lost halls of the ancient records."--Back cover.
Author's aim is to make the readers easily understand the theory of complex variables. He explains this subject matter from a rudimentary to advanced level in a very simple manner. Organized in two parts, this book explains exact definitions of different terms used by supplying worked-out examples wherever found necessary. A large number of examples have been solved in the book to acquaint the readers with different techniques. Furthermore, a large number of problems have been supplied with answers at the end of each chapter. The first part of the book (Chapters 1 through 11) containing analysis of complex variables will be useful for the undergraduate students of engineering and science. The second part of the book (Chapters 12 through 20) is written in complex domain and is targeted towards advanced level readers who are either pursuing postgraduate studies in Mathematics or research in Applied Mathematics. The first part is prerequisite for this section of the book.
This volume forms a record of the lectures given at this International Conference. Under the general heading of the equations of mathematical physics, contributions are included on a broad range of topics in the theory and applications of ordinary and partial differential equations, including both linear and non-linear equations. The topics cover a wide variety of methods (spectral, theoretical, variational, topological, semi-group), and a equally wide variety of equations including the Laplace equation, Navier-Stokes equations, Boltzmann's equation, reaction-diffusion equations, Schroedinger equations and certain non-linear wave equations. A number of papers are devoted to multi-particle scattering theory, and to inverse theory. In addition, many of the plenary lectures contain a significant amount of survey material on a wide variety of these topics.
