Joe Tucker's Uncle Eric was a beloved yet unconventional figure throughout Joe's life. A shambolically dressed man who lived with his mother for almost eighty years, he had an almost compulsive need to charm strangers with working men's club comedy routines, and appeared to exist only for daily trips to the bookie - and yet had also amassed over five hundred of his own remarkable paintings without anyone ever realising his achievements.

وها هي Bacon تقف أمام قبر شكسبير. تقرأ الكلمات المحفورة على شاهد قبره "ليبارك الله من يحفظ هذه الأحجار ويلعن ذلك الذي يحرك عظامي"، لتجد نفسها بعد أن جاوز عمرها أربعة عقود، ترتعد فرائصها، وقد تنملت أطرافها، عاجزة أن تقترب من قبره، لا أن تنبشه كما نوت.

Troubled, handsome, sexually fluid, disabled, and transgressive, he wrote his way to international fame—and scandal—before finding a kind of redemption in the Greek Revolution. He also left behind the vast trove of thrilling letters (to friends, relatives, lovers, and more) that form the core of this remarkable biography.

Growing up in Seale, Alabama as a Black Queer kid, then attending the Rhode Island School of Design as an undergraduate, Jon Key hungered to see himself in the fields of Art and Design. But in lectures, critiques, and in the books he read, he struggled to see and learn about people who intersected with his identity or who GOT him. So he started asking himself questions: What did it mean to be a graphic designer with his point of view? What did it mean to be a Black graphic designer?

What happens when the Zusaks open their family home to three big, wild, pound-hardened dogs – Reuben, a wolf at your door with a hacksaw; Archer, blond, beautiful, deadly; and the rancorously smiling Frosty, who walks like a rolling thunderstorm? The answer can only be chaos: there are street fights, park fights, public shamings, property trashing, bodily injuries, stomach pumping, purest comedy, shocking tragedy, and carnage that needs to be seen to be believed . . . not to mention the odd police visit at some ungodly hour of the morning.

This is the previously untold backstory of Ong's Hat, the Infinite Game, and proto-ARG. It weaves together early rudimentary Artificial Intelligence (AI), encounters with disembodied intelligence, emergence, and the budding Internet culture of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Elements of psychedelic culture, Avant Garde art, punk rock, industrial music, experimental theater, improv, method acting, hermetic magick, beat literature, Esalen, the works of Philip K. Dick, and more converge to create this modern tale of a spiritual quest.

Pensamos que el verbo es territorio exclusivo de la voz, pero los sentidos reclaman también su sitio en el lenguaje. La piel, por ejemplo, siempre receptiva y presente, suele narrar sus historias en forma de cicatriz, estremecimiento, comezón o goce. Es capaz de percibir con la misma intensidad la llamarada de una quemadura o el soplo de un beso, y en este libro decide no quedarse callada. Ana Clavel la acompaña en un «nosotras» íntimo y revelador, en un itinerario que devela los hilos de vida que se entraman detrás de la ficción.
