The Mouse Machine: Disney and Technology

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Throughout Disney`s phenomenally successful run in the entertainment industry, the company has negotiated the use of cutting-edge film and media technologies that, J. P. Telotte argues, have proven fundamental to the company`s identity. Disney`s technological developments include the use of stereophonic surround sound for Fantasia, experimentation with wide-screen technology, inaugural adoption of three-strip Technicolor film, and early efforts at fostering depth in the animated image. Telotte also chronicles Disney`s partnership with television, development of the theme park, and depiction of technology in science fiction narratives. An in-depth discussion of Disney`s shift into digital filmmaking with its Pixar partnership and an emphasis on digital special effects in live-action films, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean series, also highlight the studio`s historical investment in technology. By exploring the technological context for Disney creations throughout its history, The… [detailed...]

John Lusk
The MouseDriver Chronicles: The True-Life Adventures of Two First-Time Entrepreneurs

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comJohn Lusk and Kyle Harrison seemed slightly out of their minds when, unlike their fellow MBAs, they skipped on flashy, lucrative offers from dot-coms to become entrepreneurs. Specifically, to produce and sell a computer mouse designed to look like a golf-club head (a state-of-the-art titanium driver to be exact). `I wanted to feel the pain of starting a company,` Lusk writes in this clear and insightful memoir, `to go into debt, have my ego crushed and experience first-hand the thrill of working like a dog for months without a paycheck.` Since he also expected to make a million in two years, it`s not surprising that all these come to pass. The duo struggle with the fundamentals of making and selling, run-ins with typhoons, shabby off-shore manufacturing, and soon dot-com envy sets in. But when the dot-coms start going belly-up, this little-retail-product-company-that-could shows that the basics of business still apply--a handy lesson for those wondering what happened after… [detailed...]

The Moviegoing Experience, 1968-2001

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe experience of going to the movies, be it a single screen theater, twin, multiplex or drive-in, is affected by many different factors that have shifted over the years. Just as movies emerged from silent to talking, black and white to color, there has invariably been change in the way movies are made, copied, distributed and viewed. This change in the moviegoing experience, for better or for worse, is worth studying. This work examines the American moviegoing experience from 1968 to 2001?the way in which movies are made and regulated (including the demise of the Production Code and the emergence of the ratings system) as well as changes in lighting, cinematography and coloring techniques. The projection practices of the past and present, during and after the presence of the Projectionists Union, and the advent of the `platter,` which allowed for automated projection, are discussed. How home video and cable affected the content of films after the… [detailed...]

Andrew Motion, introduction by Langdon Hammer
The Mower: New &, Selected Poems

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Mower introduces the poetry of British poet laureate Andrew Motion to American readers for the first time. This selection, chosen by Andrew Motion himself, is an outstanding representation of the poet`s varied body of work elegies, sonnets, poems of social and political observation, and unsentimental poems about childhood, post-war England, and natural life composed over the course of three decades.A significant and consistent feature of Motion`s work, throughout his shifts in style and changes in imaginative topog­raphies, is his signature clarity of observation, his un­willingness to sacrifice intelligibility or embrace opacity. Instead, Motion employs the full power of the English language to do his bidding, and, in love with words as he is, the words cooperate, communicate transforming the intangible, the abstract into intelligible images, associations, and ultimately, knowledge.In his role as poet laureate for the past ten years, Motion has worked to make poetry more widely… [detailed...]

No observer of Asian affairs would have considered this to be possible, given the history of military conflicts, insurrections, and major political problems that affected many Asian countries after the end of the Second World War. India and Pakistan, the countries of Indochina, and the two Koreas had major conflicts. Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Sri Lanka faced guerrilla insurrections. China loosed murderous Red Guards on their own population, while Cambodia, under the Khmer Rouge, surpassed this record by murdering 15 to 20 percent of the country`s population, particularly the more educated groups.
