Black Origami 豆瓣
8.8 (15 个评分) Jlin 类型: 电子
发布日期 2017年5月19日 出版发行: Planet Mu Records Ltd.
Planet Mu are very excited to announce Jlin's long awaited second album “Black Origami”. A percussion-led tour de force, it's a creation that seals her reputation as a unique producer with an exceptional ability to make riveting rhythmic music.
“Black Origami” is driven by a deep creative thirst which she describes as “this driving feeling that I wanted to do something different, something that challenged me to my core. Black Origami for me, comes from letting go creatively, creating with no boundaries. The simple definition of origami is the art of folding and constructing paper into a beautiful, yet complex design. Composing music for me is like origami, only I'm replacing paper with sound. I chose to title the album "Black Origami" because like "Dark Energy" I still create from the beauty of darkness and blackness. The willingness to go into the hardest places within myself to create for me means that I can touch the Infinity.”
Spirituality and movement are both at the core of “Black Origami”, inspired largely by her ongoing collaborations with Indian dancer/movement artist Avril Stormy Unger whom she met and collaborated with at her debut performance for the Unsound festival – ”There is a fine line between me entertaining a person... more

Creation 豆瓣
The Daysleepers 类型: 摇滚
发布日期 2018年9月7日 出版发行: My Daydream Records
After a 10 year hiatus, Western New York space rockers The Daysleepers have returned to envelope you in a wave of cosmic oblivion with their new album "Creation". With songs ranging from massive wall-of-sound epics (Sundiver/Flood in Heaven/Creation), Chill, ambient drifters (This Dark Universe/The Memorymaker/The Monolith), and spacey, upbeat new wave cuts (Arclights/Tropics), The Daysleepers show more variety than ever before, proving they can bring different hues and shades to the shoegaze/dream pop genre all under the umbrella of one momentous album. As Creation effortlessly cascades through ambient textures, thick layers of jetstream guitars, and a thundering rhythm section, one thing is for sure...you've never heard The Daysleepers this big before.

The Unfinished Journey 豆瓣
作者: William H. Chafe Oxford University Press, USA 2002
This popular classic text chronicles America's roller-coaster journey through the decades since World War II. Considering both the paradoxes and the possibilities of post-war America, Chafe portrays the significant cultural and political themes that have colored our country's past and present,
including issues of race, class, gender, foreign policy, and economic and social reform. He examines such subjects as the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights movement, the origins and the end of the Cold War, the culture of the 1970s, the Reagan years, the Clinton presidency, and the events of September
11th and their aftermath.
In this edition, Chafe provides an insightful assessment of Clinton's legacy as president, particularly in light of his impeachment, and an entirely new chapter that examines the impact of two of America's most pivotal events of the twenty-first century: the 2000 presidential election turmoil and
the September 11th terrorist attacks. Chafe puts forth an excellent account of George W. Bush's first year as president and also covers his subsequent role as a world leader following his administration's declared war on terrorism. The completely revised epilogue and updated bibliographic essay
offer a compelling and controversial final commentary on America's past and its future. Brilliantly written by a prize-winning historian, the fifth edition of The Unfinished Journey is an essential text for all students of recent American history.

Liars in Love
8.2 (38 个评分) 作者: [美] 理查德·耶茨 译者: 孙仲旭 上海译文出版社 2011 - 5
《恋爱中的骗子》是理查德·耶茨继《十一种孤独》之后的第二部短篇小说集,共收入七个短篇。它完美地展示了耶茨高人一等的洞察力和描述力。耶茨借由本书再次证明了短篇小说的力量。显然更有兴趣描写“失败人生”的耶茨,凭借他敏锐的心灵与独到的观察角度,仿佛拼贴艺术般,将美国“小人物”及其生活片断立体地展现在我们眼前:失败的艺术家、生活艰难的单身母亲、疏离的亲情、劳燕分飞的婚姻、叛逆的女儿、转瞬即逝的情事、不可靠的梦想……
被遗忘的最优秀的美国作家。
——《泰晤士报》
耶茨悲天悯人的力量和敏锐的观察力使这部作品脱颖而出成一个文学大事件……令人瞩目的成就。
——《独立报》
这是二战后一位伟大却被忽视的美国作家令人难忘却长期被遗忘的作品。
——《新政治家》
耶茨是一位杰出的现实主义作家……让人边阅读边流泪。

9.0 (18 个评分) Tom Waits 类型: 布鲁斯
发布日期 1974年1月1日 出版发行: Elektra/WEA
The Eagles might have covered his song "Ol' 55," but Tom Waits was cut from a different cloth than California's other singer-songwriters--he suggested a scruffy beat poet who'd walked out of a forgotten scene of Jack Kerouac's On the Road. Waits's beatnik schtick could get old, and he developed into a much more musically adventurous songwriter in later years, but his second album contains some of his best early work, including the sweet romantic blues of "New Coat of Paint" ("You wear a dress baby, I'll wear a tie"), and his best hipster recitation, "Diamonds on My Windshield." Two songs are enduring classics: the doleful, dirge-like "San Diego Serenade" ("Never saw the morning till I stayed up all night") and the touchingly sweet "(Looking for) The Heart of Saturday Night" ("Stoppin' on the red, goin' on the green, `cause tonight'll be like nothin' that you've ever seen"). --John Milward

A Template For Understanding BIG DEBT CRISES
9.2 (15 个评分) 作者: [美] 瑞·达利欧 译者: 赵灿 / 熊建伟 中信出版社 2019 - 3
在2008年金融危机爆发10周年之际,全球一线投资者之一瑞·达利欧公开了他独到的债务危机应对原则。这些原则可以解释债务危机的发生机制,以及妥善应对危机应该遵守的原则。凭借这些原则,桥水在其他机构受困于危机的情况下,得以准确预见事态发展,并安然度过危机。
正如达利欧在其全球畅销书《原则:生活和工作》中解释的那样,他相信,绝大多数事情都是一遍又一遍地反复发生的,所以通过研究事物的规律,人们可以理解事物背后的因果关系,并制定妥善应对的原则。在这本书中,他用这种方式剖析了大规模债务危机,并分享了他的模型,希望以此来降低大规模债务危机发生的概率,以及帮助人们在未来更好地掌控危机。
在这本书中,达利欧通过三部分内容阐述了债务危机及其应对原则:债务大周期模型(解释模型)、3个重要案例(深入考察20世纪20年代德国魏玛共和国、20世纪30年代的美国大萧条和2008年金融危机)、48个历史案例和数据对照分析。
作为成功驾驭危机的极少数人之一,达利欧提供了他的非常规视角。无论你是投资者、决策者,还是仅仅对危机感兴趣的读者,这本书都将帮助你以备受启发的新方式理解经济与市场。
