Architecture and designed landscapes serve as grand mnemonic devices that record and transmit vital aspects of culture and history. Spatial Recall casts a broad net over the concept of memory and gives a variety of perspectives from twelve internationally noted scholars; practicing designers; and artists such as Juhani Pallasmaa; Adriaan Geuze; Susan Schwartzenberg; Georges Descombes and Esther da Costa Meyer. Essays range from broad topics of message and audience to specific ones of landscape production. Beautifully illustrated; Spatial Recall is a comprehensive view of memory in the built environment; how we have read it in the past; and how we can create it in the future.Please note this is book is now printed digitally.

Dollar Origami - excellent instructions; realistic; unusually creative modelsBy AnniePandaI have been folding dollar bills into a variety of shapes for close to 45 years. As a teenager; I started leaving part of my tips at restaurants in the shapes of a 2 dollar bikini (top and bottom - from my first book); peacock; elephant; shoes; boot; boat; and pig to name a few. I soon discovered that I had to give up on the idea of leaving a bikini as part of my tip - especially after I got married - my wife was NOT amused. I have purchased multiple "Dollar Origami" books over the years; and find this book to be the best book I own with respect to the diagrams; pictures; and quality of the models you can create. Whats special about this book; is that if tells you that you are making a dragon; a rabbit; a seahorse; an orchid; a teddy bear; or a great seal; etc; you dont have to apply a lot of imagination to visualize the finished model as what its named. The models in this book really look like what they are named - you dont have to guess. I have seen some money folding books where I hardly recognize the models as what they are supposed to represent. Of course; I will never have enough books on dollar origami (I have loved origami since 2nd grade when my older brother brought home a flapping crane he made in 6th grade) - but I do know for sure; that my library cant be without this one. I dont know how my library survived this long without this excellent book.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. LaFosse Alexanders Dollar Origami: Convert Your Ordinary Cash into... Michael G. LaFosseBy MaryThis DVD really made a huge difference. I have never done origami before and after doing the standing bunny with the DVD I have done intermediate projects from other books also. This is a must.. . .They really go over like a bomb when you leave them for tips! Some tell me that I made their day with them. Now they fight for me when I walk in. LOL.
