Travels of a Renaissance Man is one man's experience discovering what lies beyond the cities and borders of America. Ezekiel Phillips' travel journey began in 2007 when popular television personality and philanthropist, Tavis Smiley along with his Pastor, Bishop Noel Jones showed love by sponsoring Phillips on a mission trip to the African city of Accra in the nation of Ghana. From that experience, the California native spring boarded into more than 16 different international excursions. Combine these life changing experiences with Phillips' dynamic film-making ability, and you get a rare behind the scenes glimpse into life on the ground in less developed nations like the Philippines and Haiti. The experiences captured during his travels enable him to add value to people's lives that have yet to embrace globalization and travel. As a result of exposing himself to new cultures, communities, and people, Phillips collaborates with like-minded young adults.

It is an in-depth look into the life lessons of one man who is daring to live without limits and speak revolutionary truth. Travels of a Renaissance Man is a 21st century success story about faith, family, self-reflection, and hope.When used properly the life lessons of this book can be your guide to unlocking all that lives in you.

Phillips has realized that this place is not found in the arms of a woman, the satisfaction of a purchase, nor the thrill of accomplishments. True inspiration comes from relentlessly pursuing the path that allows you to find your passion to live from within. Travels of a Renaissance Man challenges you to live life from the inside out and find what will make you want to live everyday like it is your last day on earth! See you at Departures.

Travel, Art and Collecting in South Asia questions what are ideas of vertiginous collecting, art-making and museums as expanded fields, including wonder houses and missionary museums (or museobuses) in Britain and South Asia. If the historiography of British India has privileged photography and the 'Imperial Picturesque', the emphasis here is on the formation of a creole modernity, one that considers the relationship between art and labour, including pearlescence and pearl fishing in Sri Lanka, and the iconoclastic/fetish debates and forms of collecting amongst missionaries. Eaton explores these themes alongside the genealogies and modernities of white(ness) in contemporary curating and amateur female practice, and how the museobus or museum as a unique object has informed the work of contemporary artist group Raqs Media Collective. This book will be of interest to scholars in art history, Asian history, and imperial and colonial history.
