Makamlar: The Modal Scales of Turkish Art Music
An Introduction to the Turkish Makam
2023 || Paperback || Thomas Mikosch || Bookmundo Direct
TÜRK SANAT MÜZİĞİ - The Turkish art music, one of the greatest art musics in the world.

Off Track (Ontsporen Engels)
2023 || Paperback || Sarai van de Boel || Lecturis
In Ontsporen zijn kunst en filosofie de inspiratie om anders te kijken naar het dagelijks leven en naar organisaties. Het boek is een pleidooi om de complexheid van de huidige wereld met nieuwe metaforen te benaderen. De auteur noemt dat ‘rond denken’. Ze ziet dat in ‘vierkante werelden’ behoefte is aan handvatten om vastgeroeste patronen en systemen anders te benaderen en denkprocessen in beweging te krijgen. Sarai van de Boel daagt de lezer uit om met een filosofische benadering van...

In From Scribble to Cartoon staan functies, technieken en materialen van de tekenkunst centraal. De lezer wordt uitgedaagd om voorbij het afgebe...
