Kiyosi Seike
b Kyoto, 13 Dec 1918). Japanese architect. He studied at Tokyo University of Arts as well as Tokyo Institute of Technology (where he was also to teach from 1946). He began his career as both designer and academician in the early post-war years. He established his reputation as an architect with his superbly designed small private residences. In them he synthesized elements of modern design with those of traditional architecture although without falling into the trap of nostalgia. At the time when his designs first appeared there was much debate over the course of modern Japanese architecture and the role of traditional forms therein. Seike's success lay in his combination of both. The Mori House (1951) or his own Seike residence (1954) in T

Joseph Menn
Joseph Menn’s fourth book, "Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World," was published in June 2019 by PublicAffairs and in paperback in June 2020. It tells the story of the oldest, most respected and most famous American hacking group of all time. Its members invented the concept of hacktivism, released both the top tool for cracking passwords and the reigning technique for controlling computers from afar, and spurred development of Edward Snowden’s anonymity tool of choice. With its origins in the earliest days of the Internet, the cDc is full of oddball characters-activists, artists, and musicians-who are now woven into the top ranks of the American establishment.
