Welcome to Resonances: Engaging Music in Its Cultural Context! Although this book is intended primarily for use in the college music appreciation classroom, it was designed with consideration for independent learners, advanced high school students, and experienced musicians. That is to say, it includes enough detail that expert guidance is not required and is written using broadly-accessible language. At the same time, it addresses advanced topics and positions music as a serious object of study.

Long Description:
San Antonio Review publishes original essays, poetry, art, reviews, theory and other work twice a week on its website. Print issues are published quarterly, per the publisher’s discretion, available time and funding levels. Founded in San Antonio in 2017, SAR is based in Austin, Texas. San Antonio Review is devoted to serving as a gathering space outside academia, the market and government for writers, artists, scholars, activists, workers, students, parents and others to express their perspectives and reflections on our shared world and help develop visions of our collective future. Funded by its publisher’s income from his day jobs, donations and the sale of print editions and other materials and led and maintained by an all-volunteer editorial collective, SAR is not beholden to any institution, organization or ideology. San Antonio Review is a costly endeavor undertaken with love by its editors and publisher. It is not a profit-seeking enterprise. It aims to herald interesting and unheard voices. It receives no financial support beyond donations, referral fees for purchases from sites we link to (like independent bookshops) and purchases of our print edition, which are used to recover some of the ongoing costs of web hosting, printing and other infrastructure.

Visual Culture and the Racial Matrix in the Premodern World

Long Description:
The capacious visual archive studied in this volume includes a trove of materials such as annotated or illuminated manuscripts, Renaissance costume books and travel books, maps and cartographic volumes produced by Europeans as well as Indigenous peoples, mass-printed pamphlets, jewelry, decorative arts, religious iconography, paintings from around the world, ceremonial objects, festival books, and play texts intended for live performance.

Contributors explore the deployment of what coeditor Noémie Ndiaye calls “the racial matrix” and its interconnected paradigms across the medieval and early modern chronological divide and across vast transnational and multilingual geographies. This volume uses items from the Fall 2023 exhibition “Seeing Race Before Race”— a collaboration between RaceB4Race® and the Newberry Library — as a starting point for an ambitious theoretical conversation between premodern race studies, art history, performance studies, book history, and critical race theory.

Sense-It!: Insights into Multisensory Design
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

Long Description:
This online book explores multisensory principles for engaged product design, ultimately improving user experiences and emotional responses to product interactions. Each chapter presents a step-by-step discussion of design principles for sensory themes that build toward the final multisensory design chapter. These applied principles integrate traditional iterative approaches to product form and colour and include recent research into multisensory design; they are compatible with current design frameworks.

Our primary audience is industrial design (ID) students and professionals, as well as those in related design disciplines. We have compiled this information as a straightforward resource for novices – both novice designers and design researchers. As a result, illustrations, interactive examples, and evaluations that complement academic learning and design practice are integrated into each chapter and are valuable as teaching and learning tools.

This Creative Commons textbook is a free and shareable tool.

Smarthistory Guide to AP Art History, Volume 1

Rating

Volume 1 contains all of Smarthistory’s content for numbers 1-47 (Global Prehistory and the Ancient Mediterranean) Reviewer’s note: It is unfortunate that this textbook is branded as AP, as the level is appropriate for college learners, but the label might be off-putting. (Hopefully the forthcoming Reframing Art History will solve this problem.) Volume 1 covers material from the Paleolithic through Late Antiquity; to get through the Gothic period, instructors would need to add Smarthistory Guide to AP® Art History, Volume 2 (Early Europe, Colonial Americas), which picks up where Volume 1 leaves off and extends through Hogarth’s Marriage a la Mode.
