Stanley Kubrick's Napoleon: The Greatest Movie Never Made: TASCHEN

First to recommend

For 40 years, Kubrick fans and film buffs have wondered about the director’s mysterious unmade film on Napoleon Bonaparte. Now, ten books in one tell the fascinating tale of Kubrick’s unfilmed masterpiece ‘Napoleon: The Greatest Move Never Made’, all tucked inside of a carved-out book. Readers can imagine what his unmade film about the emperor might have been like, including a facsimile of the script. This collector’s edition is limited to 1,000 numbered copies!!!! (via slamxhype)

The Red Book by Carl Jung

First to recommend

Description

The most influential unpublished work in the history of psychology. When Carl Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration he called his “confrontation with the unconscious,” the heart of it was The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. Here he developed his principle theories—of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation—that transformed psychotherapy from a practice concerned with treatment of the sick into a means for higher development of the personality.

While Jung considered The Red Book to be his most important work, only a handful of people have ever seen it. Now, in a complete facsimile and translation, it is available to scholars and the general public. It is an astonishing example of calligraphy and art on a par with The Book of Kells and the illuminated manuscripts of William Blake. This publication of The Red Book is a watershed that will cast new light on the making of modern psychology. (via NPR)

I enjoy when Nick Cave reads from "The Death of Bunny Munro", not sure if I want to read this book myself, I'm way to lazy for that, maybe someone will make a movie of it or something, yeah, that would be nice.

Emigre No.70: The Look Back Issue - Selections from Emigre Magazine #1 - #69

First to recommend

Description

One in a while something emerges from the crowded yet restrictive space of magazine publishing that glows with an electric potential for change. In this case it is Emigre Magazine. My first experience with Emigre was issue no 1, a large format yet thin publication, it's quite power struck me like nothing that had come before it, and then in a flash this strange new typographic design magazine inspired a revolution in design, and nothing has been quite the same since. It's nice to see that Emigre now has a fat history book to show off it's contribution to the on going conversation of graphic design.
