Lisa Levy is an established New York visual artist who hosts the popular podcast "Dr. Lisa Gives a Shit" on Apple Podcasts. There are over 100 images of her ''popular'' text based artwork that comprise the art book "The Thoughts In My Head". The book was conceptualized by the written language that''s out in the world — graffiti, signs, posters, flyers, matchbooks — in one big cauldron. "Depending on how it''s contextualized, the meaning can be changed radically, often in a humorous way. When you use words without an image, the emotion evoked by the words comes from the context in style. When you see the painting, ''If I’ve never offended you, we’re not that close.'', you see the words on a canvas — it reads as an artwork. If someone else places that painting in their home, that saying is coming from them. If I hand someone a matchbook that I have, with those same words printed on them, I’m hoping it makes them feel closer to me, and it helps me feel less self-conscious about being appropriate, which I am often not, though I have no desire to offend." For close to 30 years, Lisa worked as an ...

A searching account of the ethics and aesthetics of the home- the place that is most important in determining human happinessA bedroom, a kitchen, a bathroom - are these three rooms all that make a home? Not at all, argues Emanuele Coccia. The buildings we inhabit are of immense psychological and cultural significance. They play a decisive role in human flourishing and, for hundreds of years, their walls and walkways, windows and doorways have guided our relationships with others and with ourselves.They reflect and reinforce social inequalities; they allow us to celebrate and cherish those we love. They are the places of return that allow us to venture out into the world. In this intimate, elegantly argued account, Coccia shows how the architecture of home has shaped, and continues to shape, our psyches and our societies, before then masterfully leading us towards a more creative, ecological way of dwelling in the world.

In his page-turning and inspiring first book, legendary songwriter and recording artist Jason Derulo shares his 15 rules for finding success in any pursuit, and invites everyone—especially artists and creators—to start on their path to greatness.In 2009, an 18-year-old son of Haitian immigrants burst onto Billboard music charts with the instant #1 song, “Whatcha Say,” which sampled a surprising hook and opened with what would prove to be one of the catchiest lines in pop music history – the artist’s own name, sung out loud. Defying every possible odd, Jason Derulo cemented himself again and again, hit after hit, as one of the hardest working singers, dancers, and performers in the world and a risk-taking force of nature.This is the remarkable story of Derulo''s come up, told through the valuable principles that guided and propelled him toward artistic excellence. Waking at 4am to catch buses across Miami so he could attend performing arts schools on scholarship, entering himself into local singing competitions at the mall on the weekends, and penning hundreds of songs before he ever saw the inside of a recording studio, Derulo’s commitment to his dream – and dedication to seeing it come true – is the stuff ...

A brand-new translation of a philosophical classic of the ancient world, The Teaching of Ptahhatp, written in Egypt 4,000 years ago. The Teaching of Ptahhatp, composed two millennia before the birth of Plato, is the oldest surviving statement of philosophy in the ancient world and the earliest witness to the power of the written word. It ought to begin the list of the world’s philosophy classics, yet it has been largely forgotten since it was rediscovered in the nineteenth century.Egyptologist Bill Manley’s new translation corrects this oversight, rendering into approachable modern English for the first time Ptahhatp’s profound yet practical account of ‘the meaning of life’, written many centuries before the supposed dawn of western philosophy. Manley introduces Ptahhatp, who served as Vizier to the Old Kingdom pharaoh Izezi (c. 2410–2375 BC), and the world of dynamic ideas and new technologies – writing among them – within which he worked, illuminating the nuances of his language and philosophy.In addition, Manley’s new translation of Why Things Happen, the oldest surviving account of creation from anywhere in the world, reveals how Ptahhatp’s account of the human condition is founded in distinctive ancient Egyptian beliefs about the nature of truth and reality.

Triple-Oscar-winning, world-renowned animator – and author of the seminal book The Animator’s Survival Kit – Richard Williams’ legendary career in the world of animation is brought to the page here for the first time.Written with his wife and collaborator, Imogen Sutton, Adventures in Animation follows the life and career of this pivotal figure in animated features, from the influential moment when, aged five, Williams saw Snow White, right through his career of more than sixty years. Over those decades, Williams created full-length features, short films, title sequences for films and hundreds of commercials – all of which were graced by his characteristically elegant, sinuous lines and magnificent imagination. Williams’ place in animation history is assured: he directed the Academy Award-winning 1971 adaptation of A Christmas Carol and perhaps most famously worked as Director of Animation on Who Framed Roger Rabbit, for which he won two Academy Awards. Serving as the linkman between the original creators of the world of Disney (Snow White, Dumbo, The Jungle Book) and the current generation of digital animators (Toy Story, The Incredibles and Ice Age), it is fair to say that his like will not be seen again.Williams’ first book, The Animator’s Survival Kit, and ...

What does it mean to market yourself as a business in today's job search world? Finding a job used to be simple. Now . . . well, it’s complicated. In today’s economy, you can’t just be an employee looking to get hired—you have to market yourself as a business, one that can help another business achieve its goals.  That’s a radical transformation in how we think about work and employment, says Ilana Gershon.
