Chris Anderson Knihy

Geekové jsou novodobou kategorií dospělých, jejichž poznávacím znamením je dětství u počítače, Dračího doupěte, případně v kroužku programování. Jsou zběhlejší v technice než kterákoliv generace před nimi a své inovace neváhají aplikovat na všechny aspekty života. Díky neodolatelné osobnosti se i geekové stávají dříve či později táty a tady přichází chvíle pro evoluci nového druhu – táty geeka. Tito tátové nepodceňují děti a hledají nové, neotřelé způsoby, jak se s nimi podělit o lásku k vědě a technice, jak v nich zažehnout plamen vášně k učení a objevování. A zejména, jak se také dobře pobavit. Knížka Táta geek je plná nekončící zábavy a futuristických lahůdek, od stolních her přes roboty až po elektronické hračičky a pomáhá každému geekovskému tátovi probudit malého kluka, který v něm stále dřímá.

Tato publikace je brilantní analýzou krásné hry jménem fotbal, analýzou bořící zažité mýty, dogmata a praktiky. V žádném případě však nejde o nudná statistická data, naopak - autor na základě dlouholetého zkoumání odhaluje pravé příčiny fotbalového úspěchu. Bez nadsázky jde o "povinnou četbu" pro trenéry, hráče, fanoušky i sázkaře.

"What happens when there is almost unlimited choice? When everything becomes available to everyone? And when the combined value of the millions of items that only sell in small quantities equals or even exceeds the value of a handful of best-sellers? In this ground-breaking book, Chris Anderson shows that the future of business does not lie in hits - the high-volume end of a traditional demand curve - but in what used to be regarded as misses - the endlessly long tail of that same curve. As our world is transformed by the Internet and the near infinite choice it offers consumers, so traditional business models are being overturned and new truths revealed about what consumers want and how they want to get it. Chris Anderson first explored the Long Tail in an article in "Wired" magazine that has become one of the most influential business essays of our time. Now, in this eagerly anticipated book, he takes a closer look at the new economics of the Internet age, showing where business is going and exploring the huge opportunities that exist: for new producers, new e-tailers, and new tastemakers. He demonstrates how long tail economics apply to industries ranging from the toy business to advertising to kitchen appliances. He sets down the rules for operating in a long tail economy. And he provides a glimpse of a future that's already here." - publishers description.

Christopher Anderson (*1970, Kelowna, Canada), a member of Magnum Photos, is one of the most influential contemporary photographers. He first gained recognition in 1999 when he boarded a small boat with 44 Haitian immigrants trying to sail to America. The boat sank in the Caribbean. For his images, he received the Robert Capa Gold Medal. Since then, Anderson’s work has defied categorization as he slips between the worlds of documentary, art, commercial and fashion photography. He was New York Magazine’s first ever “Photographer in Residence” and won the World Press Photo contest in 2007 and 2008. The images in Bleu Blanc Rouge , taken in the United States, France, Italy, Spain, and Germany, include portraits, candid moments, and still lifes. Recurring visual elements as the color red, forms and patterns, or a certain light tie the images together to a playful and poetic series. Presented in a magazine-like style, the particular intimacy of Anderson’s images enchants the viewer in an instant. Exhibition: 3.11.–8.12.2018, Ravestijn Gallery, Amsterdam
