Pages : 496
Book Description
The Robot Wars are just beginning . . .On a world of intelligent robots who seem to have forgotten their own distant past, it is a time of war as the soldiers of Artemis City set out to conquer everything within range on the continent of Shull, killing or converting every robot they capture to their philosophy, while viewing their own wire-based minds as nothing but metal to be used or recycled for the cause. Elsewhere, the more individualistic robots of Turing City believe they are something more than metal, but when the Artemisian robot Kavan sets out on a determined crusade to prove himself, even Turing City can't stand against him. Increasingly tied up with Kavan's destiny is Karel, a Turing robot with elements of Artemis's philosophy already woven into his mind ... as well as Karel's wife Susan, and their recently created child.. Following the inevitable violence and destruction, Artemisian ambition focuses elsewhere and a journey begins towards the frozen kingdoms of the north ... and towards the truth about the legendary 'Book of Robots', a text which may finally explain the real history of this strange world ... In a completely alien but brilliantly realized landscape, here is a powerful story of superb action, barbaric cruelty and intense emotional impact.

Mirror Paintings and Early Starts (Vol. 3)
Author: Steven L. Griffing
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
Most of the artwork in this portfolio is from 2022 through 2024. In Chapter 1, I include previously unpublished, and new drawings from 1981 through 1987. Chapter 2 includes drawings from 2009, 2012, and 2014. All of the drawings are arranged in chronological order. They are all my original artwork. Most of the drawings are designed to be able to be painted on a twelve inch square mirror, or mirrors in the shape of a golden rectangle, a root-two rectangle, or a root-five rectangle. The golden rectangle is supposed to be a shape most pleasing to the human eye. Its proportions are derived from the golden section, which is (1+ 5)/2, or 1.6180... The golden ratio can be derived from a root-five rectangle. My other works include Mirror Poems, Mirror Paintings and Early Starts: Volumes 1 and 2, Essays on Philosophy and Physics, The Golden Section: An Ancient Egyptian and Grecian Proportion and The Early Poems.

Sinister Urge
Author: Joel McIver
Publisher: Hal Leonard Corporation
ISBN: 1617136468
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
(Book). Sinister Urge is the first in-depth, career-spanning biography of heavy-metal musician and filmmaker Rob Zombie. Born Robert Cummings in 1965, Zombie is now as well known for his movies as he is for his music, which he has released and performed both as a solo artist and as part of his early band White Zombie. In both fields, he imbues his art with the vivid sense of macabre theater that has thrilled his millions of disciples since he and his band first emerged with Soul-Crusher in 1987. Although he has sold millions of albums and generated many more millions of dollars at the box office, Zombie has never taken the easy option or the predictable route. Indeed, while the music industry and many of his peers have fallen to their knees in the last decade or so, Zombie has found a new edge, his work undiluted by success or middle age. Drawing on original research and new interviews with bandmates and associates, Sinister Urge takes a detailed look at Zombie's challenging oeuvre, offering close analysis of his albums and films alongside tales of his life and work on and offstage.
