Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Accounting for approximately 10 % of the land mass of Planet Earth, the Antarctic is a Global Commons we collectively neglect. Far from being a pristine natural landscape, the continent is a contested territory which conceals resources that might prove irresistible in a world with everincreasing population growth. The 26 quadrillion tons of ice accumulated on its bedrock, equivalent to around 70 % of the fresh water on our planet, represent at once the most significant repository of scientific data available, providing crucial information for future environmental policies, and the greatest menace to global coastal settlements threatened by the rise in sea levels induced by anthropogenic global warming.'Antarctic Resolution' advocates the rejection of the pixelated view of Antarctica offered to us by Big Data companies and urges the construction of a high-resolution image focusing on the continent's unique geography, unparalleled scientific potential, contemporary geopolitical significance, experimental governance system, and extreme inhabitation model. Only the concerted determination of a transnational network of multidisciplinary polar experts - represented here in the form of authored texts, photographic essays, and data-based visual portfolios - could construct such an image and reveal the intricate web of growing economic and strategic interests, tensions, and international rivalries, which are enveloped in darkness, as is the continent for six months of the year. Learning from Antarctica's spirit of cooperation, 'Antarctic Resolution' aspires to launch a platform, an agency for change, where citizens can undertake a true Antarctic resolution and engage in a unanimous effort - independent of nation - to shape the future of the Antarctic and, in turn, of our planet.; Im Zeitalter des Anthropozän ist es zwingend, unsere Aufmerksamkeit nach Süden zu richten: aufdie Antarktis. Sie ist ein Kontinent, der nur 10% der Erdoberfläche ausmacht, aber 70% des Süsswassers der Welt speichert. Einerseits eine wesentliche Datenquelle für zuverlässige Prognosen desKlimawandels, ist sie andererseits die grösste Bedrohung für alle Küstengebiete.Zum 200. Jahrestag der Entdeckung des Südpols erscheint mit Antarctic Resolution eine Publikation, die ein hochauflösendes Bild des hyper-überwachten, aber zugleich vernachlässigten Kontinents bietet. Eine Resolution, die sich für eine echte transnationale und interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit einsetzt, bringt zum ersten Mal in der antarktischen Bibliographie internationale Experten und Praktikeraus den Bereichen Wissenschaft, Architektur, Ingenieurwesen, Geschichte, Politikwissenschaft,Recht, Anthropologie, Literatur, Kunst und Technologie zusammen.Die ganzheitliche Agenda von Antarctic Resolution gipfelt im ersten umfassenden Archiv antarktischer Architektur. Es enthüllt die einzigartige Entwicklung von Wohn- und Architekturtypologien unter extremen Bedingungen: von der allerersten Hütte, die jemals auf dem Kontinent gebaut wurde, bis hin zu hochentwickelten zeitgenössischen Bauten. Zudem stellt es die Beweggründe in Frage, die zu einer unerwarteten architektonischen Redundanz auf dem Kontinent geführt haben.Entwickelt von der gemeinnützigen Organisation UNLESS, die Architektur als Prämisse für territoriale Untersuchungen sieht, stellt Antarctic Resolution akademische Inhalte und visuelle Informationen einander gegenüber. Neben archivarischer und zeitgenössischer Fotografie beinhaltet das Buch auch Zeichnungen, Diagramme und Kartografien aus dem globalen Netzwerk des Polar Labors. Das Buch erzählt kein abschliessendes Narrativ. Vielmehr bietet es fundierte Erkenntnisse in fragmentarischer Form - Blitze, die einen Kontinent erhellen, der jährlich sechs Monate lang in Dunkelheit gehüllt ist.Mithilfe dieser interdisziplinären, interkulturellen Untersuchungen präsentieren die Gestalter geeignete und differenzierte Lösungen für die globale Kommunikation. Durch die Auseinandersetzung mit den Problemen und Möglichkeiten der mehrsprachigen Typografie und visuellen Repräsentation setzt sich 'Visual Coexistence' ein für ein Design, das als Werkzeug eines globalen Verständnisses dient.…

Dan Winters (born October 21, 1962) is an American portrait photographer, illustrator, filmmaker and writer. He was born in California on October 21, 1962. He first studied photography and the darkroom process starting in 1971 as a member of his 4-H club. In 1979, while a high school senior, he worked full-time in the motion picture special effects industry in the area of miniature design. He went on to study photography at Moorpark College. In 1986, he began his career in photography as a photojournalist. He moved to New York City, where magazine assignments came rapidly. Known for the broad range of subject matter he is able to interpret, he is widely recognized for his iconic celebrity portraiture, his scientific photography, and his photojournalistic stories. He has created portraits of celebrities such as Bono, Neil Young, Barack Obama, the Dalai Lama, Stephen Hawking, Leonardo DiCaprio, Helen Mirren, Johnny Depp, Kate Winslet, Angelina Jolie, Sandra Bullock, Brad Pitt, Steven Spielberg. He has won over one hundred national and international awards from American Photography, Communication Arts, The Society of Publication Designers and Life, among others. In 1998, he was awarded the prestigious Alfred Eisenstadt Award for Magazine Photography. After beginning his career as a photojournalist for a daily newspaper in southern California, Dan Winters moved to New York to begin a celebrated career that has since led to more than one hundred awards, including the Alfred Eisenstadt Award for Magazine Photography. An immensely respected portrait photographer, Dan is well known for an impeccable use of light, color, and depth in his evocative images. In Road to Seeing, Dan shares his journey to becoming a photographer, as well as key moments in his career that have influenced and informed the decisions he has made and the path he has taken. Though this book appeals to the broader photography audience, it speaks primarily to the student of photography, whether enrolled in school or not, and addresses such topics as creating a visual language; the history of photography; the portfolio; street photography; personal projects; his portraiture work; and the need for key characteristics such as perseverance, awareness, curiosity, and reverence. By relaying both personal experiences and a kind of philosophy on photography, Road to Seeing tells the reader how one photographer carved a path for himself, and in so doing, helps equip the reader to forge his own.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 178, [4] pages. Illustrated endpapers. Illustrations. DJ, in a plastic sleeve, is soiled, worn, torn, chipped and missing portions at top and bottom. Preface by Henry G. Alsberg. This work was Sponsored by the Guild's Committee of Federal Writers' Publications, Inc. This is on of the American Guide Series. This work is organized in the following sections: Washington: The Planner, The Plan and Its Evolution; Government: The Capitol, The White House, The Departments and Independent Agencies; Embassies, Shrines and Monuments, Historic Houses, Churches, Museums, Libraries, Galleries, and Learned Societies, Organizations, International and National, Festivals and Scenes, Environs, Arlington, Mount Vernon, Alexandria, Virginia, and Outline Tours in Washington and Vicinity. The Federal Writers' Project (FWP) was a federal government project in the United States created to provide jobs for out-of-work writers during the Great Depression. It was part of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), a New Deal program. It was one of a group of New Deal arts programs known collectively as Federal Project Number One. The FWP employed thousands of people and produced hundreds of publications including state guides, city guides, local histories, oral histories, ethnographies, and children's books. In addition to writers, the Project provided jobs to unemployed librarians, clerks, researchers, editors, and historians. The American Guide series, the most well-known of the FWP's publications, consisted of guides to the then 48 states, as well as the Alaska Territory, Puerto Rico, and Washington, D.C. The books were written and compiled by writers from individual states and territories, and edited by Alsberg and his staff in Washington, D.C. The format was generally uniform, and each guide included detailed histories of the state or territory, with descriptions of every city and town, automobile travel routes, photographs, maps, and chapters on natural resources, culture, and geography. The inclusion of essays about the various cultures of people living in the states, including immigrants and African Americans, was unprecedented. In each state a Writers' Project non-relief staff of editors was formed, along with a much larger group of field workers drawn from local unemployment rolls. The people hired came from a variety of backgrounds, ranging from former newspaper workers to white-collar and blue-collar workers without writing or editing experience. W. Lincoln Highton (Photographer--unless otherwise (illustrator).…
