Murat Aydemir
Images of Bliss: Ejaculation, Masculinity, Meaning

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Minnesota Press
Description: Aristotle believed semen to be the purest of all bodily secretions, a vehicle for the spirit or psyche that gives form to substance. For Proust`s narrator in Swann`s Way, waking to find he has experienced a nocturnal emission, it is the product of `some misplacing of my thigh.` The heavy metal band Metallica used it to adorn an album cover. Beyond its biological function, semen has been applied with surprising frequency to metaphorical and narratological purposes. In Images of Bliss, Murat Aydemir undertakes an original and extensive analysis of images of male orgasm and semen. In a series of detailed case studies-Aristotle`s On the Generation of Animals, Andres Serrano`s use of bodily fluids in his art, paintings by Holbein and Leonardo, Proust`s In Search of Lost Time, hard-core pornography (both straight and gay), and key texts from the poststructuralist canon, including Lacan on the phallus, Bataille on expenditure, Barthes on bliss, and Derrida on dissemination-Aydemir… [detailed...]

Images of Organization: The Executive Edition

— y.
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
Description: Effective managers are skilled in the art of `reading` the situations that they must organize or manage. Professor Morgan`s book is designed to develop the art of reading and understanding organizations. Firstly, he shows how many of our conventional ideas about organizations and management build upon a small number of images, especially mechanical or biological ones. Secondly, by exploring these and alternative images, he shows how to develop new ways of thinking about organizations. Thirdly, he demonstrates how this method of analysis can be used for the management and design of organizations. And fourthly, he explores the theoretical implications raised by this kind of analysis. Morgan works from the premise that our theories and explanations of organizational life are based on metaphors that lead us to see and understand organizations in distinctive, yet partial ways. He demonstrates how the use of different metaphors provides new ways to manage and design organizations. Overall,… [detailed...]

Description: Winner of the MEA`s 2008 Marshall McLuhan Award for Outstanding Book in the Field of Media Ecology. Richard Barbrook argues that, at the height of the Cold War, the Americans invented a truly revolutionary tool: the Internet. Yet, for all of its libertarian potential, hi-tech science soon became a tool of geopolitical dominance. The rest of the world was expected to follow America`s path into the networked future. Today, we`re still told that the Net is creating the information society. Barbrook shows how we can reclaim its revolutionary purpose: how the DIY ethic of the internet can help people shape information technologies in their own interest and reinvent their own, improved visions of the future.

Description: Television, video games, and computers are easily accessible to twenty-first-century children, but what impact do they have on creativity and imagination? In this book, two wise and long-admired observers of children`s make-believe look at the cognitive and moral potential--and concern--created by electronic media. As Dorothy and Jerome Singer show, violent images in games and TV are as toxic as many observers have feared by stimulating destructive ideas and troubling aggression. But should all electronic media be banned from children`s lives? Calmly and authoritatively, the Singers argue that in fact some screen time can enrich children`s creativity and play, and can even promote school readiness. With guidance from parents and teachers, empathy, creativity, and imagination can expand and intensify in the electronic age. [detailed...]
