Mentioning Design orientated books, has anyone read Made You Look by Stefan Sagmeister? What a fabulous object that book is, cost me a fortune but it was well worth it. If anyone gets a chance to have a look at it, please take the time. |
||||||||
|

|
|
nope it's by Leslie Cabarga it's pretty nifty the combinations are by Eras Victorian, Art Deco, 60s....etc the Rave Section is very cool covers most of the Dance/Techno Culture color schemes.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's cool, _awt_ : have you read A Garden of Pomegranates by Israel Regardie? or The Book of Thoth, by Aleister Crowley? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i read the book of thoth while doing a study on crowley. quite interesting stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey cool, you've studied Crowley too--well, did you like study him for school, or "study" him? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
both. first i got interested, then made 20-page essay of him. i got the crowley thoht tarot when i was 12 or something so that is how it all started. my history teacher did no evaluate my essay btw because he didn't want to read stuff about crowley. i am ever bitter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fuck! I would be bitter too! Did you try to complain to someone else at the school? That ignorance is shocking : / |

marlowe, you should read that book which contains letters written by Satie. it's fantastic, the man was soooooo strange. what is the title of the book about satie's compositional technique? i would like to lay my hands on such a book...:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw i'm in between books right now, but the next book i'm going to read will be naked lunch (just saw the movie by david croenenberg, it's awsome...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its funny how people (including my teacher) reat to crowley. 'omg he is the guy who founded satan worshipping!' or something. lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bremzen: The introduction to the Compositional book mentioned the letters, and highly recommend them :) The book is called "Satie the Composer", and is written by a Robert Orledge. neetta: yeah, I had the misfortune to watch a documentary on what is meant to be the most liberal Tv channel here, and it kept calling him evil, a black magician, and yes, a satanist--I was fuming throughout! >:( |

I'm in too many literature courses, and I'm supposed to have finished Canterbury Tales, Purgatorio, The Book of Good Love, Guide to the Perplexed, the Gazelle, a thick stack of essays by Freud, Barthes, Hegel, and Kant, half of the Hebrew Bible and a good portion of Divus Julius by Monday. It's not happening. |

brian jacques(sp?) - redwall stephen king - needful things |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mm, Needful Things is one of my favourite Stephen King books--pretty good book. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes but "the shining" is better and "it" scared me a lot more than needfull things but did u read insomnia marlowe ?, i think this may be the best kings book |
||||||||

Still reading American Pastoral by Philip Roth (been busy with school and work). Amazing book though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I was very taken with Insomnia--thought it was very good at the time--I liked The Shining a lot, too--Only read the first part of It, I think-- |

Just finished reading "The Lucifer Principle" by Howard Bloom for the second time. Focused on his thesis that social structures are a type of superorganism. It's right interesting, so check it out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
reading short storys by raymond carver if anyones seen the movie shortcuts this is the book |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ohh yeah, I remember hearing about "The Lucifer Principle" a couple of years ago I think--So, you recommend it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, it's thought provoking. I also recommend "The Ego and It's Own" by Max Stirner. Amoralist egoism at its finest, called the most revolutionary book ever written. Dangerous stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right. I'll join in. Paul, did you read the book of interviews with David Lynch "Lynch on Lynch" published by Faber & Faber..? I have that one, its very interesting. I've just read "Don't panic" - a book about Douglas Adams and how he wrote the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. (and its written by Neil Gaiman). it was nice. also, I'm reading "eating naked", strange short stories by Stephen Dobyns. and I have to read "Oedipus Rex", the play. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nope, I haven't read the Lynch Interviews--I read one once in a film magazine, but that's about the extent of it :) Sounds interesting, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which book about Lynch were you reading then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's called 'Weirdsville USA' and it's about his movies/Tv work--I'm up to the 2nd series of Twin Peaks with it--I failed to realise that his movies are littered with references to The Wizard Of Oz! :) |

lullaby is about a journalist who tries to figure out a story behind all of these crib deaths that occur and discovers that the root of all these deaths is a lullaby that the parents would read the baby before bed that kills them. "sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you." *bam!* you're dead! |
