500多年前,德國人谷騰堡(1397—1468)用鉛合金鑄製活字,改良繪畫用的油彩配方為印刷用的油墨,又參考釀酒業螺旋式壓搾葡萄的機器,發明木製印刷機。這套標準化、產業化的活字印刷術,徹底改變了歐洲知識傳播的方法,為人類歷史帶來翻天覆地的改變。

儘然活字印藝已成為 非物質文化遺產,在今天的活字館,你我仍能成為谷騰堡的學徒!在這次初階工作坊裏,參加者將認識活版印藝的基本知識,如字粒結構、字架排列、檢字和鎖版技巧等,再用Adana手搖活版印刷機,印製屬於自己的圖文作品,探索傳統印藝轉化為當代創作的可能性。若你喜歡實體紙品,若你想學習排印技術,萬勿錯過.ᐟ.ᐟ

Over 500 years ago, the German inventor Johannes Gutenberg (1397–1468) created movable type using lead alloys, refined the ingredient of oil painting for printing ink, and drew inspiration from the spiral presses used in winemaking to invent the wooden printing press. This standardized and industrialized movable type printing method fundamentally transformed the way knowledge was disseminated in Europe, bringing about monumental changes in human history.

Today, while movable type printing is recognised as an intangible cultural heritage, you can still become one of Gutenberg's apprentices at Open Press! In this beginner workshop, participants will learn the basics of letterpress printing, including the structure of movable type, type case arrangement, and typesetting techniques. You will use an Adana Letterpress Printing Machine to print your own works, exploring the artistic possibilities of this traditional craftsmanship. If you have a passion for paper products and want to acquire typesetting techniques—Don’t miss out.ᐟ.ᐟ

Out of Control with Technology
Format: Hardcover
I found the book very interesting! The authors did a great job of discussing the benefits of different social media sites. While the sites were intended for good use, there is always a downside. Each of the sites were exploited over time for a use other than intended. While this is by no means a surprise, it is amazing how others were quick to use the sites for illegal purposes. The history of how some of the sites were developed was interesting too. Of additional interest was the amount of notes included in the book. A third of the book is devoted to this alone. It shows the level of thoroughness the authors took to allow readers to delve deeper into topics discussed in each chapter. The most pressing question for social media: What is the next level of advancement?

All's fair in Like and War
Format: Hardcover
Is Mark Zuckerberg responsible for exacerbating the killing fields on the South Side of Chicago? What is China's Golden Shield Project and what might it mean for you? Did Michael Flynn have any good ideas before his fall from grace serving in the Trump administration? Read this book and you'll get the answers to these questions and many more. This book takes a notion with which most readers are likely already familiar - the internet has graduated from its nascent status as a series of tubes connecting nerds and defense contractors to that of an ineffably complex globe-gobbling organism engaged every hour of every day in the instantaneous distribution of information spanning all spectra of human activity - and combines it with one not so well established in the popular imagination - we (or, at least, everyone who uses the internet) are all potential foot soldiers, willing or not, in the online and offline wars still raging as well as those yet to come. Written in succinct, snappy prose, the book tells the story of the internet from its peculiar vantage point at the intersection of social media and military conflict with its arguments firmly based in factual and expert analysis. Those seeking to validate a particular political slant or ideology should look elsewhere.

Insightful but troubled
Format: Hardcover
This book could have been so much more but it fell short. The book does capture a new phenomenon sweeping the world. The growth of social media is that phenomenon. The book does a good job chronicling the growth of social media and its impact on a general scale. Through that growth opportunities were created. The book does a good job of listing how people, groups and countries exploit these opportunities. They advance their respective agenda various ways on social media. I loved the pages which talked about how AI can create fake news with all of the authenticity of an eye witness account. The book lists impacts of these trends with crystal clear words. You can see impact clearer than any other source out there. The negative is the bias of the authors. Who the authors voted for in the last election screams out with every chapter. They use the topic as a club to bash republicans, President Trump, and conservatives. They miss how Democrats were playing the same games as Trump before Trump. This bias causes a reader to lose the message and dangers through politics. David Plouffe, the Obama campaign manager in his book "The Audacity to Win" said he used social media in 08 election. Funny how these people ignore those events to focus on what Republicans do. I also think their constant drum beat of what the Russians do creates a false election that they stole the election. The authors forget the failed policies of Hillary.

Documents the influence of American Eugenics on the Holocaust
Format: Hardcover
American Court decisions, and what some call the genocide of Native Americans, was one major source of inspiration behind Nazi policy against both the Jews and people that the eugenic scientists considered inferior races. American policy also was very influential in inspiring the Nazi goal of lebensraum, expanding the Germanic population and reducing, and making slaves, of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians and other Eastern populations). Following Hitler's rise to power, Lebensraum became an ideological goal of Nazism and provided for them justification for the German territorial expansion into East-Central Europe. After all, the Americans decimated the naïve population of America so, the Nazis reasoned, how is that different from the decimation the native population of Eastern Europe? Some even referred to Ukrainians and other Slavic people as "Indians." Reservations for Native Americans was a factor justifying the concentration camps for Jews, only a few of which were death camps, and this is one reason why the Nazis got away with the Holocaust for so long. It was not until after the war when the Soviets liberated the death camps that we knew for certain the extent of the genocide goal of the Nazis. The main extermination camps were Belzec, Sobibór and Treblinka, which served as "death factories." Auschwitz II–Birkenau was a combination concentration/extermination camp. Anti-Semites, eugenicists and racists inspired by Darwinism in the U.S. helped inspire those in Germany, and vice versa. The US was “a global leader in ‘scientific’ eugenics,” so naturally the German scientists would have to rely on American research and law (page 8). The author covered only briefly the well-documented important influence of Darwin and mentioned evolution only in connection with the evolution of racism (p, 114). Conversely, the eugenics idea and movement was discussed 28 times, such as page 8 where the author documents that eugenics was the basis of both the Nazi Germany and American discrimination laws and policy. The support of the U.S. to Nazi German went well beyond that. U.S. bankers and industry, even the weapons industry, invested heavily in the Nazis war machine. Nazis borrowed ideas from U.S. books, such as the 1916 American best seller racist book titled The Passing of the Great Race and other propaganda, such as that developed in World War I. The U.S. refused to admit significant numbers of Jewish refugees, such as in 1939 the United States refused to admit over 900 Jewish refugees who had sailed from Hamburg, Germany, on the St. Louis to the West. Denied permission to land in the United States, the ship was forced to return to Europe where many died in Nazi German camps. The most famous example is the State Department rejected Anne Frank's attempt to enter the United States (pages 53,116, 149).
