For the generation coming of age in the years from 1987 to1994, RIP magazine was every bit as crucial as RollingStone . Life on Planet Rock describes how LonnFriend, the editor of RIP , became the Zelig-like chroniclerof the biggest musical moments of that time—from introducing GunsN’ Roses (in nothing but a top hat, underwear, and cowboy boots) tositting in during the making of Metallica’s Black Album . Life on Planet Rock provides revealing portraits ofartists as varied as Kurt Cobain, Gene Simmons, Alice Cooper, AxlRose, James Hetfield, Steven Tyler, and many more. Part oralhistory, part candid and humorous memoir, it is a wormhole back toa fast-moving time in music that saw tastes flash from new wave tohair metal to grunge, told as only someone who was there through itall could tell it.

《中国美术院校教材：潘思同水彩画直观教材选》所介绍的是潘思同20世纪五、六十年代在浙江美术学院水彩画教学中使用的部分直观教材。所谓直观教材就是上课时的图示和示范作品。由于上课的教学时间有限，不可能在课堂里做大量示范，所以在每堂课上课之前，作为备课，潘思同都要针对一、二个问题，画一些直观教材，上面配备必要的文字说明，一方面为了节省时间，另一方面也为了取得视觉效果。在直观教材中，有些图本身就是独立的作品，因此，下课后学生常常争先恐后地拿去观摩、临摹。对这些直观教材，学生反应很好，有些青年教师也常借去作为参考。当时许多同行建议让这些教材印刷出版，但由于当时彩色印刷费用高昂，会大大提高书价，而且印刷质量也大有问题，如果采用黑白图版则大大削弱教材的直观效果，因而始终未能出版面世1993年，“

Today the industry will gross over $20 billion. How didthis change happen? From the moment Pete Seeger tried to cut thepower at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival debut of Bob Dylan'selectric band, rock's cultural influence and business potentialhave been grasped by a rare assortment of ambitious and farsightedmusicians and businessmen. Jon Landau took calls from legendaryproducer Jerry Wexler in his Brandeis dorm room and went on toorchestrate Bruce Springsteen's career. Albert Grossman's cold-eyedassessment of the financial power at his clients' fingertips madehim the first rock manager to blaze the trail that David Geffentransformed into a superhighway. Dylan's uncanny ability to keephis manipulation of the business separate from his art andreputation prefigured the savvy -- and increasingly cynical --professi
