THE RULES THAT MAKE US 'With the eye of an anthropologist and the clarity of a storyteller, Oliver Sweet helps us see the water we all swim in - the invisible systems that shape our choices, our communities, and even our sense of self. This book doesn't just explain culture; it restores our ability to see it - to notice what we have stopped noticing ... I read it with gratitude and a sense of recognition: this is how deep seeing begins.' Christian Madsbjerg, author of Look and Sensemaking 'Oliver Sweet does something rare: he captures cultural complexity without flattening it into easy answers. The evidence is rigorous, the thinking is nuanced, and the whole thing feels genuinely contemporary.' Rob Scotland, head of brand marketing at Veo 'A must-read for anyone who wants to understand how the world really works.' Erin Meyer, author of The Culture Map 'Anthropology in technicolour - accessible, sharp and unsettling in all the right ways. It reminds us that culture doesn't just describe who we are; it scripts what we believe is possible.' Dr Lollie Mancey, programme director at UCD Innovation Academy Oliver Sweet's book is not only a highly informative read and riotously entertaining, but it's an important book ... It is a brilliant and truthful account of how culture shapes us, and more importantly how it unites us more than divides us.' Chloe Combi, author, speaker, columnist, consultant 'Policy makers, think tankers, businesses, consultants, listen up: Forget "nudge" and "behaviour change" - culture is where it's at!' Professor Martin Holbraad, director of Ethnographic Insights Lab, UCL 'The Rules That Make Us is more than a guide to culture; it's a framework for seeing the systems that shape belief, behaviour, and belonging. What makes it powerful is that it's not just theory - it's lived anthropology, translated into a way of thinking that anyone can use. This book doesn't just describe the world; it helps you understand how to work with it.' Murray Standford, head of anthropology, Coca-Cola

Interactive documentaries combine moving images, text, graphics, and digital interactions to create dynamic, web-based narrative formats. As a post-cinematographic expansion of the classical documentary film, they provide viewers with opportunities to select options and make decisions that co-determine what is shown and in what order. This volume brings together perspectives from film, media, game, and interface studies&nbsp;and includes analyses of key works as well as interviews with actors involved in making interactive documentaries.&nbsp;Key topics explored include opportunities for participating in interactive formats, challenges for the long-term archiving and accessibility of browser-based documentaries,&nbsp;and the influence of software and interfaces on the concept of the documentary.

Phänomenologie der Bibliothek: Redescriptions

In Narrationen des 19. Jahrhunderts gab es zahlreiche textuelle Repräsentationen der Wunderkammer. Valerie Ahlfeld zeigt anhand von Adalbert Stifters 'Der Nachsommer', Theodor Fontanes 'Vor dem Sturm' und Wilhelm Raabes 'Das Odfeld', wie diese Denkfigur in einer Zeit transformiert wird, in der sich die Sammlungspraxis in Richtung spezialisierter Museen verlagerte. Dabei verknüpft sie literatur- und sammlungswissenschaftliche Perspektiven und verbindet textanalytische Detailarbeit mit kulturhistorischer Kontextualisierung - ein innovativer Beitrag zur Erforschung der Literarisierung vormusealen Sammelns.

Denkfigur Wunderkammer

"Harry Bucknall leads us through the multicultural history of our island, with its diverse history and extraordinary quirkiness. Up fell and down river, across walls and dykes, from Iona to Dover, you are in safe hands as he steers a course of over 6,000 miles. A Road for All Seasons is a joy." Julie Summers "The kind of travel book that makes you want to lace up sensible boots and set off immediately" - The Halpern HotlistA journey of 6,518 miles, that filled 14 notebooks and encompassed all 4 countries of the United Kingdom, travelling through 42 out of its 95 counties, visiting 23 cities; requiring 75 trains, 60 maps, 26 cars, 16 buses, 9 ferries, 4 tubes, 4 uber taxis, 4 black cabs, 2 DLR, 2 vans, a canal boat, a probation service minibus, an intercontinental articulated lorry, a 1953 Morris Oxford and a pair of size 9 boots ... A tumultuous period in British politics left writer Harry Bucknall questioning whether he really knew the place he called home. Propelled by a growing desire to better understand his island nation, Harry decided to undertake a pilgrimage of sorts; he embarked on a series of four walks across Britain that would mirror the changing seasons, covering a distance of nearly 1,600 miles.From fresh and heady spring through to the gloriously crisp winter months, Harry journeyed across Britain visiting cities, towns and vast swathes of the countryside from Mull to Sunderland and Aberystwyth to Lowestoft, meeting a host of diverse and charismatic characters along the way as he strove to uncover the beating heart of the nation. Uplifting, joyous and charming, A Road for All Seasons is a vivid, social and cultural snapshot of 21st-century Britain. Focusing as much on the beauty of the fertile land as the people who inhabit it, it explores a unique culture, its folklore both past and present, as well as the wealth of the nation's history and heritage. Exquisitely written and filled with delightful people and places, this is Harry's ardent tribute to the British Isles.

A Road for All Seasons

Wissenschafts- und Technikgeschichte

Taking a global perspective to the computer age reveals how work, gender, and emotions have shaped its history. Since the 1960s, workplaces have been key sites for the introduction of computers, transforming organizations, future imaginaries, and perceptions of self and others. Yet, contrary to dominant narratives, this process was neither smooth nor universally welcomed. Workers and organizations responded in diverse ways, forming distinct emotional communities amid profound change. Across eight chapters, case studies from Europe, Asia, and Latin America offer new insights into the global computer age and invite reflection on our present relationship with technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and ongoing workplace transformations.

TanzScripte

Tänzerisch-autobiografische Verfahren von Künstler*innen, sogenannte 'Auto_Choreo_Grafien', sind häufig in sozio-temporale Umbruchsdiskurse eingebettet. Nadja Rothenburger betrachtet sie im Kontext der 1970er bis 2020er Jahre anhand der Positionalität und Perspektive von Tänzer*innen gegenüber dem Berliner Mauerfall oder der Implementierung professioneller Arbeitsbedingungen für freiberufliche Schweizer Tanzschaffende. Dabei analysiert sie die dynamische Bezugnahme auf historische und politische Ereignisse mithilfe spezifischer Konstellationen, die ein produktives Überdenken von Ich-Konstitutionen ermöglichen - ein Ausgangsmoment für eine multiperspektivische, raumzeitliche Tanzgeschichtsschreibung.

This book examines ten of the most common myths surrounding the Korean Wave in relation to its histories, theories, and practices. It will be highly appealing to students, scholars, as well as general readers who are interested in the Korean Wave, media globalization, and contemporary digital culture.

Ten Debates on the Hallyu Mythology

Misunderstanding the Korean Wave

Modernity was characterised by a belief that progress would automatically lead to a better future. Today, that optimism has evaporated. In its place we have global heating, multiple wars, economic austerity and a prevailing sense of malaise. Now the primary concern is to limit the damage and avert the catastrophe. Even if that succeeds, we will still be faced with unprecedented change. We are looking at a future where collective survival will take precedence over individual and collective self-fulfilment. Adaptation will be the guiding principle of society. This is raising momentous questions about our understanding of time, of politics and of ourselves - to which progressive political forces and humanity as a whole are going to have to find answers.

Freedom, Hope and Politics after Modernity

Adaptation

This is the story of the game-changing collaboration between director Alfred Hitchcock and composer Bernard Herrmann, who channelled their inner fears and desires into films that would become the nightmarish narratives and soundtracks of our lives.

The 11-year collaboration between Alfred Hitchcock and Bernard Herrmann is often called the greatest director-composer partnership in cinema history. Their eight films together include such classic thrillers as Vertigo, The Man Who Knew Too Much, North by Northwest, Psycho, and The Birds. In Hitchcock and Herrmann: The Friendship and Film Scores that Changed Cinema, Steven C. Smith delivers an intimate account of how the reserved, but deeply anxious, Hitchcock found his ideal creative partner in the cantankerous, but deeply romantic, Herrmann. Smith draws on four decades of research, including previously unpublished documents and new interviews, to deliver a riveting account of what made the teaming of "Benny and Hitch" so memorable and influential -- and why it came to a bitter end.
 
Their story involves the tumultuous changes in Hollywood from the mid-1950s to mid-1960s, as the collapsing studio system gave way to independent, counterculture filmmaking. It also involves the key figures in Hitchcock and Herrmann's inner circle including the director's gifted wife and most valued critic, Alma Reville; Herrmann's beautiful, put-upon spouse, Lucy Anderson; and talent agent-turned-studio mogul Lew Wasserman. Wasserman's negotiations made Hitchcock's greatest filmmaking period possible, but over time Lew's commercial instincts as head of Universal Studios clashed with Herrmann's pure artistic vision.

Hitchcock and Herrmann is both a deeply researched historical study and a fast-moving, cinematic narrative -- one that puts readers on the film sets and scoring stages of Hitchcock masterworks. Their collaboration ended in a bitter break; but today Herrmann's pulse-quickening music has become the soundtrack of our own anxious times. The music from their movies is more popular than ever, heard in Quentin Tarantino blockbusters and Lady Gaga music videos. In Smith's expert telling, readers get an an intimate look at two legendary creators who, despite seemingly opposite personalities, found in each other artistic completion.

Hitchcock and Herrmann

A Well-Founded Optimism

Look at Me&nbsp;is both an intimate account of Dustin Hoffman's work as an actor, collaborating with the greats of the last six decades-Mike Nichols, Gene Hackman, Meryl Streep, Robert Redford, Barbra Streisand, Lawrence Olivier, Steve McQueen, Ann Bancroft-in era-defining films, and a profound contemplation of mortality by a person entering his nineties and looking back on a remarkable life. (Hoffman was slated to be the failure in his family... he even failed at that.) Fans will finish this book feeling that they truly&nbsp;know&nbsp;Hoffman: the way his mind works; how he prepares for a part; his experience growing up in Los Angeles as a lower middle-class Jewish kid in the 1940s, then arriving in New York City full of passion in the late 50s, only to find himself crowned the "voice of his generation" in&nbsp;Life&nbsp;magazine by the end of the 60s. In the decades since, Hoffman has shown his brilliance and breadth in some of the most iconic movies of the Twentieth Century. In his memoir, he proves to be an ardent, entertaining, and deeply empathic storyteller... a narrator whose company you will relish.
