Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
What does your favourite music look like? How can you visualise raw energy or sophisticated lounge sounds? And how could you create packaging for that album? Sonic answers these questions with 320 striking pages of today's best-designed record covers and concert posters. Worlds apart from another rehash of the standards of the 1960s and 70s, this book focuses on contemporary examples from underground and indie music, pop, alternative rock and electronica. An engaging cover and packaging design have become key reasons for listeners to buy music in its traditional forms. With the rapid proliferation of MP3s, effectively designed music covers are increasingly necessary for the success of an album in today's stagnating music industry. Sonic is a source book designed to inspire music insiders and the graphic artists creating music packaging. With its stunning visuals from today's most exciting music, Sonic also appeals to a general audience of concertgoers, gift givers and all those interested in intelligent "pop" culture.

Visual Intelligence
Author: Amy E. Herman
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0544381068
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
An engrossing guide to seeing—and communicating—more clearly from the groundbreaking course that helps FBI agents, cops, CEOs, ER docs, and others save money, reputations, and lives. How could looking at Monet’s water lily paintings help save your company millions? How can checking out people’s footwear foil a terrorist attack? How can your choice of adjective win an argument, calm your kid, or catch a thief? In her celebrated seminar, the Art of Perception, art historian Amy Herman has trained experts from many fields how to perceive and communicate better. By showing people how to look closely at images, she helps them hone their “visual intelligence,” a set of skills we all possess but few of us know how to use properly. She has spent more than a decade teaching doctors to observe patients instead of their charts, helping police officers separate facts from opinions when investigating a crime, and training professionals from the FBI, the State Department, Fortune 500 companies, and the military to recognize the most pertinent and useful information. Her lessons highlight far more than the physical objects you may be missing; they teach you how to recognize the talents, opportunities, and dangers that surround you every day. Whether you want to be more effective on the job, more empathetic toward your loved ones, or more alert to the trove of possibilities and threats all around us, this book will show you how to see what matters most to you more clearly than ever before. Please note: this ebook contains full-color art reproductions and photographs, and color is at times essential to the observation and analysis skills discussed in the text. For the best reading experience, this ebook should be viewed on a color device.
