A clear, nontechnical guide to why cryptocurrency exists, how it reshapes trust and money, and why it matters beyond speculation. How do we build trust in a digital world where institutions, platforms, and intermediaries increasingly mediate money, identity, and ownership? In Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, Marco Di Maggio offers an essential guide to cryptocurrencies and blockchains—two of the most misunderstood technological and economic transformations of the digital age. Rather than focusing on price charts, hype cycles, or programming details, Di Maggio explains why these technologies exist, what problems they attempt to solve, and why they matter for people who are not crypto insiders. Using plain language, analogies, and real-world examples, the book explains how cryptocurrencies reshape core concepts of money, property, markets, and governance. The author explores topics such as how and why Bitcoin is used as a financial fallback, what stablecoins are and how they have become critical infrastructure for global payments, and how NFTs introduced a new notion of ownership and identity on the internet. Written for curious readers, journalists, students, policymakers, and professionals, Cryptocurrency provides a conceptual framework for understanding crypto as infrastructure, not ideology—helping readers see past the noise to grasp the deeper forces reshaping money, trust, and coordination in the digital economy.

"Love is two minutes and fifty-two seconds of squelching noises" (Johnny Rotten, Rolling Stone)
 
 
The theory is that sex sells. And sex sells music.
 
The connections between music and sexuality are long-standing, 'rock'n'roll' itself being a slang term for sex, and there are many ways in which artists have explored sex and love through the medium of sound. Some of the records discussed in this book are experiments in expressing sexual desire through musical forms, mixing musical and sexual sounds. Others use sex purely as a marketing device or as 'whimsical entertainment' (sexualised images on LP covers, for example). Other records examine the politics of sexuality and/or offer a subversive take on the relationship between popular music and eroticism.
 
As an accessible form of entertainment, the LP was part of the 'democratization' of sexuality and erotica, something that was previously only available to the upper classes collecting erotic and pornographic materials on their many travels around the globe. Recorded music extended the reach of sexual content from literature, with books such as An ABZ of Love by Inge and Sten Hegeler (1963) or Alex Comfort's The Joy of Sex (1972), into the audio-visual realm.
 
The 'stirrings of the soul', the animation of the spiritual and the emotional, is what 'heavy conscious creation' is about and the sexual aspect of this is significant and profound.
 
Canadian electroacoustic composer Robert Normandeau once claimed that 'music, unlike other contemporary art forms, has hardly dealt with eroticism as a genre'. This book tries to fill in the gaps that this statement implies.
 
And the "two minutes and fifty-two seconds of squelching noises" that Johnny Rotten spoke about are here, sometimes literally, in musical form.

The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series

What lies underneath digital platforms—their invisible architecture and governance that determine everything visible. Every time you unlock your phone, stream a show, or start your car, you’re entering a world shaped by thousands of engineering decisions you’ll never see. Most platform conversations fixate on their visible canopy—business models, user experience, competitive strategy—the “leaves,” in a sense. Platforms by Amrit Tiwana excavates their roots. The book begins with a simple DNA test that separates authentic from faux platforms, then traces the forces turning tractors, pacemakers, and elevators into platforms. Using the platform trinity, the author explores principles behind why platforms behave so differently, why superior technology doesn’t always win, and why—unlike products that reach a final form—platforms never stop evolving. From there the book explains platforms’ two hidden root systems: The first system, architecture, shows how Lego-like “modular” design, frozen interfaces, and prefab building blocks let thousands of outsiders contribute pieces that snap into colossal systems. The second system, governance, describes where architecture confronts human behavior. Elegant architecture flails with poor governance, so both demand discipline.

Die Washingtoner Prinzipien von 1998, fordern die Signatarstaaten zu "gerechten und fairen Lösungen" im Umgang mit "NS-Raubkunst" auf. Das Vereinigte Königreich setzte diesen Appell im Jahr 2000 mit Einrichtung des "Spoliation Advisory Panel" (SAP) um, das seither einen Streitbeilegungsmechanismus bietet, um auf die Ansprüche Berechtigter zu reagieren. Dieser Band nimmt die 22 Empfehlungen in den Blick, die das Panel bislang ausgesprochen hat. Die Entscheidungen werden vor dem Hintergrund der englischen Rechtstradition und -praxis sowie der historischen Rolle des Vereinigten Königreichs analysiert, systematisiert und einem abstrakten Regelwerk zugeführt. Die so sichtbar gemachte Entscheidungslinie des SAP kann als Diskussions- und Vergleichsgrundlage für die Restitutionspraxen anderer Staaten herangezogen werden.

It's time to shed the beauty myth and find a new freedom.In this powerful and precise book, Saskia Alais examines how we originated harmful beauty ideals and the many ways in which we continue to perpetuate them.

Unlock the wisdom and knowledge within the depths your mind - Nancy Kline shows you how with theories and practical sessions, as well as results from its use in business leadership, coaching, team development and personal relationships. Nancy Kline has identified 10 behaviors that form a system called a Thinking Environment™, a model of human interaction that dramatically improves the way people think, and thus the way they work and live. Listening - the quality of people's attention for each other - is the core of this method. Most people think they listen well, but they rarely do - not at this level. Listening this way is a radical act. The power of effective listening is recognized as the essential tool of good management. In this book, Nancy Kline describes how we can achieve this, and presents a step-by-step guide that can be used in any situation. Whether you want to have more productive meetings, solve business problems, create bold strategies, or build stronger relationships, this book offers you a new world of possibilities. From blue chip companies developing high-powered teams to individuals seeking personal growth, a Thinking Environment has come to mean transformation of the highest quality.

Der Band richtet den interdisziplinären Blick auf die vielgestaltigen Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Literatur, Tanz und Musik. Dabei leiten die allen drei Kunstformen innewohnenden Elemente Rhythmus, Körper und Narration die untersuchten Fragestellungen an. Welche verschiedenen Interaktions- und Rezeptionsdynamiken charakterisieren den Austausch zwischen Text, Bewegung und Klang? Adaptionsprozesse und Übertragungsphänomene sind dabei gleichermaßen zu berücksichtigen, sowie auch der künstlerische Austausch und die Kooperationen zwischen verschiedensten Akteuren der drei Kunstformen. Die drei transversalen Elemente - Rhythmus, Körper und Narration - ermöglichen einen abstrahierenden Zugang und damit ein vertiefteres Verständnis von komplexen Korrelationen im künstlerisch-kreativen Schaffen sowie in den Produkten dieser Arbeit. Klingt die rhythmische Musikalität eines Textes beispielsweise für den Autor anders als für denjenigen, der ihn vertonen möchte, und denjenigen, der ihn laut oder leise liest? Oder haben die körperlichen Bewegungen beim Spielen eines Musikstücks nicht auch tänzerisches Potential? Sowohl Musik als auch Tanz erschaffen Narration, während der Schreibprozess durch Klanglichkeiten motiviert werden mag.

What does it mean to be governed and what does it mean to resist? Examining how communities form amidst social and political turbulence, this open access book presents four case studies that demonstrate the power of organic social formations over imposed order. Understanding this formation of community in terms of 'ungovernability' and a 'poetics of resistance',Ungovernable Spaces charts a movement from oppression, through transformation, into imagining, and finally emergence. Throughout the book, the authors engage methods of situated practice and related modes of writing and image-making to consider a range of global case studies: the destruction of the Mecca apartment building in Chicago's South Side in 1952, following a decade of resistance from the building's predominantly African American occupants; M.K. Gandhi's practices of social activism including the Salt March protest of 1930, and the daily practice of spinning and intermittent fasts; the Ciudad Abierta (Open City), a radical pedagogical experiment started by a poet and an architect in Valparaíso, Chile in 1970; and, finally, the urban ecologies developing on either side of Belfast's 'peace walls' in the wake of the Troubles and 1998's Good Friday Agreement. Structured via four spatial configurations - the grid, the charkha, the constellation, and the cluster -each case study explores community formation through artistic and aesthetic practices that resist and unsettle forms of hegemonic order. A truly interdisciplinary work at the intersection of poetry, art and spatial practice, Ungovernable Spaces argues for the importance of ethics, aesthetics, imagination and ecology in developing, of necessity, a new poetics of 'us.'
