Dennis Morris: Music + Life is the first in-depth career retrospective of the trailblazing photographer, designer, and art director. Although Dennis Morris is celebrated for his iconic portraits of reggae superstar Bob Marley, this monograph also shines a light on Morris's documentary work, which explores questions of race and cultural identity as it draws on his experiences as a Black teenager in 1970s Britain. Supported by an international touring exhibition, Dennis Morris unveils a trove of previously unseen images, offering new insight into the image-maker's visual language. Jamaican-born Morris moved to East London when he was just five years old. His passion for photography was ignited when he joined a local church's camera club. A rebellious thirteen- year- old, Morris skipped school to meet--and photograph--Marley, an encounter that would catapult him into a whirlwind tour with Marley and, subsequently, the Sex Pistols as their official photographer. His adventures in the reggae and punk scenes of the 1970s laid the groundwork for a multidecade career spanning photography, art direction, design, and music. The book unfolds in two symbiotic parts: the first captures Morris's unapologetic lens on race, culture, and identity in 1970s Britain, while the second surveys his collaborations with music legends, including--in addition to Marley--Lee "Scratch" Perry, Gregory Isaacs, and Marianne Faithfull. Featuring an original contribution from Sean O'Hagan and an essay by the late cultural theorist Stuart Hall, this publication promises to delight both photography aficionados and music lovers alike.

Description (200 words) In this photograhic tribute to Bob Marley, close friend and celebrated photographer Dennis Morris, pays tribute to an artist and performer who became a spiritual avatar to millions. Morris photographed Marley at almost every point in his career and the resulting images are intimate shots that could only have been taken by a trusted friend, capturing the essence of the man and his many moods. Morris’s own recollections of Marley accompany the images, along with quotations from Marley that reveal his thoughts on life, politics and being black in a white man’s world. Together the text and images show a hitherto unseen Bob Marley, offering insights into his life on the road, in the studio, onstage and at home in Jamaica with his family. The book also has a complete discography of Marley recordings.

This book is about the space-time of our universe. This book is about why our space-time is 4-dimensional and why it has the observed distance function. The mathematics in this book are no more than matrices and a little finite group theory. The mathematical steps are clearly laid out and simple to follow. From this elementary mathematics, we get general relativity and classical electromagenetism; we get spinors stripped naked; we get gravito-electromagnetism; and we get the space-time of our universe. We also get an explanation of why there are three generations of matter and why the universe appears non-deterministic to ourselves. We are introduced to spinor spaces and to the higher dimensional spinor rotations within those spaces.

This book is about spinors. The whole mathematical theory of spinors is within Clifford algebra, and so this book is about Clifford algebra. Spinor theory is really the theory of empty space, and so this book is about empty space. The whole of Clifford algebra is rewritten in a much simpler form, and so the whole of spinor theory is rewritten in a much simpler form. Not only does this book make Clifford algebra simple and obvious, but it lifts the fog and mirrors from this area of mathematics to make it clear and obvious. In doing so, the true nature of spinors is revealed to the reader, and, with that, the true nature of empty space. To understand this book you will need an elementary knowledge of linear algebra (matrices) an elementary knowledge of finite groups and an elementary knowledge of the complex numbers. From no more than that, you will gain a very deep understanding of Clifford algebra, spinors, and empty space. The book is well written with all the mathematical steps laid before the reader in a way that is easy to follow and to understand.

The Naked Spinor: A Rewrite of Clifford Algebra

Mathematics

This book is about the higher dimensional complex numbers. Although it was not known when the first edition was printed, the higher dimensional complex numbers are spinor spaces and the classical spaces, including our 4-dimensional space-time, arise from these spinor spaces by superimposition of isomorphic algebras. This book covers the mathematical foundations underlying the mathematics of spinors and the space-time of classical physics. To understand this book, the reader needs no more than an elementary understanding of matrices and an elementary understanding of finite group theory. Previous knowledge of complex numbers would be helpful.

This book is about quaternions. The quaternions are derived from finite group theory. Non-commutative differentiation is included, as is non-commutative rotation. Quaternion trigonometry is included. Double cover rotation is included. The spinors of quantum physics are shown to be quaternions. Lie algebra and Clifford algebra are visited.
