The Technological Republic [Bok / Häftad]

When it first appeared in 2006, David Lynchs Catching the Big Fish was celebrated for being as close as Lynch will ever come to an interior shot of his famously weird mind (Rocky Mountain News) Now for the bestsellers 10th anniversary, Lynch dives deeper into the creative process and the benefits of Transcendental Meditation with the addition of his exclusive q-and-a interviews with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. The musicians open up to Lynch about their artistry, history, and the benefits they have experienced, artistically and personally, from their decades-long practice of Transcendental Meditation -- a technique that they and their fellow Beatles helped popularize in the 1960s. Catching the Big Fish is a revelation for all want to understand Lynchs personal vision. And it is equally compelling for any who wonder how they can nurture their own creativity.

The branch he sat on was creaking under his weight, but he didn´t seem to notice or care. He was shouting about being angry at his brother. I stood by the trunk and cried and begged him to come down, but he wouldn´t listen. <br/><br/>I will not come down until Gregoris has apologised to you! he insisted. There were two birds in the tree with my grandfather, one on each side of him. One of the birds was a dove, the other some sort of bird of prey, like a hawk or a falcon. <br/><br/>"If you won´t come down, will you at least save the dove? And look out for the other bird!" I cried out. Just as my grandfather reached out to the dove, the branch snapped.

<b>In this riveting and immersive biography, acclaimed author Mary Gabriel details the meteoric rise and enduring influence of </b><b>perhaps the greatest pop icon of the modern era: Madonna.</b><br/><br/>With her arrival on the pop music scene in the early 1980s, Madonna generated nothing short of an explosion - as great as that of Elvis or the Beatles or Michael Jackson - <b>taking the world by storm with her liberated politics and breath-taking talent.</b> Within two years of her 1983 debut album, a shopping mall in California was nicknamed "The Madonna Mall" because it was overrun with "Material Girls". Later that year, the flagship Macy's store in Manhattan held a Madonna lookalike contest with Andy Warhol as judge, and opened a department called "Madonna-land".<br/><br/>Everywhere, women and men gravitated to the singer and actor as an emblem of a new age, one in which the <b>women's liberation</b> could shed the buttoned-down demeanour and reserved seriousness of the '60s and '70s and continue to make tremendous strides for a new generation. Topping charts again and again with provocative, visionary music and videos, <b>Madonna brought queer and sexually-curious identities into the mainstream</b>, fiercely defending a person's right to love whomever, and the space to be who they wanted.<br/><br/>Now, after almost <b>45 years in the spotlight, and in her 65th year</b>, no stranger to controversy, Madonna stands as one of the staunchest supporters of women's and LGBTQ+ rights and continues to represent a lionized emblem of liberation throughout the world.<br/><br/>Deftly tracing the artist's life and influence from her Michigan roots through to her sold out concerts around the globe, master biographer Mary Gabriel captures the <b>inspiration, fame, and activism</b> of one of the greatest music icons of our time.
