If the glacial dynamics of previous metal and hardcore abstractions Celestial and Oceanic didn't prove that Isis was a heavy band in every sense, then Panopticon should do the trick. The title comes from 18th century philosopher Jeremy Bentham's prison design, which was later referenced by Michael Foucault in the 20th century. The idea is that a centrally placed guard or watcher can keep track of a large number of prisoners, and it excited Bentham and concerned Foucault. Heavy stuff for a metal band, huh? Both are quoted in the liner notes, bookended by aerial industrial photos laying out society's open sprawl. It fits perfectly with the epic music on the disc itself, which is as angular as post-rock forefathers Slint and as cosmically expansive as Neurosis, yet closer to the intensity of hardcore than either of them…

John Stuart Mill, "L'utilitarisme"

Ce traité de John Stuart Mill a été publié en 1863. La morale de Bentham, dans l'Introduction aux principes de morale et de législation, partait du principe que le plaisir est l'unique but de l'existence. Stuart Mill, son disciple, a su comprendre que même une morale utilitaire ne saurait se passer d'éléments intérieurs et il a voulu la doter d'une conscience, d'un sentiment du devoir et d'une obligation morale. Bentham avait lancé la formule : chercher le bonheur du plus grand nombre en identifiant toujours l'intérêt de l'individu à l'intérêt universel. …

People who put the public good before their own self interest have been admired throughout history. But what is the public good? Sages and prophets who think they know better what is good for us than we know ourselves held sway on this subject for more than two thousand years. The world had to wait for the Enlightenment that burst upon the world in the eighteenth century for an account of the public good free from the prejudices of the privileged classes.

Bayeux Stitch

Bayeux Stitch by Tanya Bentham
English | February 21st, 2022 | ISBN: 1785009877 | 160 pages | True EPUB | 54.01 MB

The term 'Bayeux stitch' often describes the laid and couched work that was used across Europe in the middle ages. This practical book of techniques and projects demonstrates the simple style of the Bayeux tapestry, before showing variations based on both surviving examples and adaptations of medieval manuscripts. It explains the narrow range of stitches used in laid and couched work and introduces the limited colour palette in medieval embroidery and the rhythmic use of colour. There are twelve projects with step-by-step sequences that illustrate how to stitch subjects ranging from knights to trees, and from dragons to bishops. By introducing subtle variations of techniques and materials, Tanya Bentham illustrates the endless potential of this beautiful embroidery, and brings it alive for today's embroiderers.
