Описание: Like no other music of its era, Moby's oceanic, bluesy electronica has summed up the millennial turn's rootless melancholia, in massive worldwide hits like "Porcelain," "Natural Blues" and "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?" His 1999 album Play sold over ten million copies and converted a whole generation to electronic dance music. With Destroyed, Moby has created a visual analogue to his gorgeous soundworld. The photographs in this volume record the sizeable portion of his life that is spent shuttling from plane to bus to venue to stage to party to hotel room to oblivion. "I hope that somehow in these pictures," Moby writes, "I'm able to convey the mundanity of touring, juxtaposed with those moments of the strange and/or sublime. One minute on tour you're by yourself in a soulless airport, the next minute you're flying over the most beautiful landscapes on the planet. One minute on tour you're by yourself in a soulless backstage area, the next minute you're on stage pouring your heart out to 75,000 people. Touring is all contrasts and strangeness, and that's what I'm trying to convey in these pictures." The 60 photographs in Moby: Destroyed accordingly veer from crowdedness to isolation, capturing the extremes of a life lived on the road. Also included is Moby's new album of the same name.

Описание: Through hundreds of rare and unpublished photos from GM's media and design archives and an in-depth text by renowned Corvette historian Randy Leffingwell, Corvette Sixty Years celebrates the first six decades of America's sports car, covering the revolution and evolution of America's longest continuously-produced nameplate from Harley Earl's initial concept to the latest 60th anniversary edition built to celebrate the Vette's sixtieth year. Created in cooperation with General Motors, the book focuses as much on the Corvette's place in popular culture as it does on the engineering and design history. This book offers something for everyone who has ever lusted after a Vette. From the inaugural 1953 Corvette to today's stunning sixth generation car, Corvette Sixty Years touches on all aspects of Chevrolet's iconic sports car: history, racing, period ads, posters, memorabilia, key designers like Bill Mitchell and engineers like the fabled Zora Arkus-Duntov, celebrity Vette fans, and more. For Corvette fans, it's an ultimate celebration of America's most famous car.
