There was never an artist who came close to capturing horror and dread like Lee Brown Coye. He was master of the weird and grotesque illustration. Coyes sketches had the shape of nightmares.mdash;Robert Weinberg; The Weird Tales Story"It was always my belief that a good drawing was a good drawing; whether it was in the archives of the Metropolitain Museum or in a pulp magazine."mdash; Lee Brown CoyeNo other artist working in mid-century pulp fiction created work as twisted as Lee Brown Coye. By the 1970s; after surviving a life-threatening illness; Coye would outdo himself; creating lurid illustrations exclusive to rare privately published books and fanzines. With nearly one hundred gloriously rendered Coye-penned images; Pulp Macabre showcases Coyes final and darkest era; containing some of the most passionately ghoulish artwork ever made.Mike Hunchback is an enthusiast of various eras of extreme and bizarre underground art; and is currently working on a biography of original Fangoria magazine editor Robert "Uncle Bob" Martin.Caleb Braaten operates Sacred Bones Records; which has recently teamed with David Lynch to release his new album The Big Dream.

Make it Real...By Jay WilsonMost people know about Silicon Valleys success and some have heard about the part design played in its rise but its history has never been fully documented until now. Barry Katz reveals what it actually took for design to evolve from a subservient position to engineering and marketing into a core competency for innovative companies designing products that people actually want to buy.ldquo;Design Thinkingrdquo; is now a recognized strategy and a methodology to frame ANY problem from a design perspective and the credit goes to those design pioneers who fought the good fight...5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Useful history but dryBy John LillyLots of great nuggets in here; and reminders of how many pioneers we owe a debt of gratitude. But a little mixed up organizationally; leaves a lot out; and is a little too much like a laundry list of people and accomplishments.But important history to know; Im glad someone started to capture.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five Stars: A Fascinating History and a Fantastic Read.By CustomerBarry Katz does a wonderful job in laying out the history of design of Silicon Valley. He defines design as an interdisciplinary effort by engineers and artists who focus on not what products they should make but on how consumers use products. The eclectic mix of perspectives of early industrial designers such as Henry Dreyfuss and contemporary figures as Steve Jobs is an interesting approach in defining global impact of Silicon Valley.Silicon Valley is also where engineers realized what make good products great is beyond mere ergonomics to include human factors from theories rooted in social sciences.This book is a must read for those interested in the beginnings of Bay Area design firms; the d.school at Stanford and how individuals of diverse disciplines --not just limited to computer science- as one might believe when hearing the term Silicon Valley-- contribute to writing its history.
