Book Description

Communications theorist Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980) predicted the effects of electronic media on modern culture as early as 1964. McLuhan published several breakthrough books and coined terms like "hot" and "cool" media, "the global village," and "the medium is the message."










HARMONY


Book Description

Harmony is the complex interplay of love that belongs to every infinite relationship of life. During an infinitesimal instant of your perplexity through your inner universe you realize that every instant is perfect, even that which, to your mind, to your way of understanding, seems to you a moment of your life that is not serene. We are, during the same instant, the visible and invisible, emptiness and form. The visible, which to the eyes of our thinking looks like the known, and the invisible, which to the eyes of our mind, looks like the unknown, together complete the awareness meant for the evolution of oneself, as well as that of the whole.




Il pozzo e il pendolo / The Pit and the Pendulum


Book Description

Il narratore è stato condannato a morte durante il periodo dell’Inquisizione. Dopo aver ascoltato la sentenza, il narratore perde conoscenza. Al suo risveglio, scopre di essere sul pavimento di una cella senza nemmeno un filo di luce. Decide di esplorarla, e scopre che al suo centro si trova un pozzo. Il narratore capisce che deve servire come una punizione a sorpresa, un espediente tristemente popolare dell’Inquisizione.




Anno Zero Nucleo


Book Description

Il terzo capitolo apre da dove si era interrotto il precedente. Il viaggio prosegue, anche se le attese vengono ripagate da ancora più sangue e fiamme, che prendono tutto ciò che riescono, senza pietà verso un gruppo sempre meno folto. La resa dei conti arriva, l'astronave copre il panorama e i cuori dei protagonisti devono fare gli straordinari, ergendosi al di sopra di tutta la morte che li circonda. Un ultimo disperato tentativo di spuntarla e un epilogo non proprio scontato. Ultimo capitolo di una trilogia iniziata con il sangue e finita allo stesso modo, solo con più esplosioni.

AWARENESS


Book Description

That which strays from the seemingly known meaning of existence - the harmony of the silent thought with the harmony of the heart, referred to by some as the spirit, defined by others as the soul of the body, and by others still as having perhaps an even broader meaning - is, in the wholeness of my understanding, the deepest meaning of intelligence, of recognizing your own inner and outer path without any judgment, letting it flow freely along your thoughts as the richness of an awareness that is beyond life itself as we know it. It surprises you in your inner visions and allows you to get to know an inner world (if such it can be called), or inner universe, which is different from the one that you knew up to the immediately preceding moment.
