"You thought cats ruled the internet but now they also run the DIY realm. Detailed within these pages is how to channel the energy inherent to the feline nature: the power in sitting, what it means to teach the floor to talk, awareness of direction, how to play with yarn (cat's cradle, get it?) and so on, all with lovely old-timey Dover-clip-art-influenced Victorian illustration. Actual sample quote: 'Indeed, Euclid proved over two millennia ago, the shape of a cat's head mathematically points to the center of a circle.' You didn't know you wanted this until you stumbled on it on your way to the catnip." —L.M., Quimby's Bookstore, on How to Be Your Own Cat.
Illustration from Le Journal Amusant, 1893.

sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |
