Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - TEATIME AT GOLGOTHA is 'a heady, wittily self-effacing drama' about the unenviable search for meaning in what is - in all likelihood - a cold, cold world. Following the stories of Longinus after the crucifixion, the last hours in the life of astronomer Tycho Brahe, and a modern day hostage situation, TEATIME leaps back and forth through the millennia, drawing meanings, parallels, and conclusions that the characters themselves characteristically fail to notice. 'Mark Chrisler's intelligent, thrilling TEATIME AT GOLGOTHA [is] rewarding: bringing history, myth, and hallucination into fruitful collision. Chrisler . presents a heady, wittily self-effacing hour-long fantasy that charms even as it ridicules its own grandiosity. Chrisler partitions the stage into three playing areas, each populated by three characters from a different historical period . Gradually the worlds begin to intersect, as the same phrase that ends a scene in one era starts the next in another . The most striking moment of TEATIME AT GOLGOTHA comes when the three playing areas are lit simultaneously for the first time and all the characters, stupefied, see one another . The cool humor and fantastical musings of TEATIME AT GOLGOTHA . Using great theatrical economy - the play is rhetorically precise, and all the details are telling - Chrisler needs only an hour to develop his themes. But rather than pin his ideas down at the end, he lets them linger evocatively.' -Justin Hayford, The Chicago Reader.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Three wickedly scintillating plays on the artistry and science of duplicity, mendacity, and deception. THE ART OF PAINTING: 'The Art of Painting' is the magnum opus of Johannes Vermeer, one of the greatest artists in history, who lived his whole life ruing the life and work of Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, one of the greatest-er artists in history. Or 'The Art of Painting' is the magnum opus of Han van Meegren, one of the greatest art forgers in history who lived his whole life ruing the work of artist Johannes Vermeer. Or 'The Art of Painting' is an act of rue by Jacques van Meegren, son of one of the greatest art forgers in history, who lived his whole life bereft of a father who let him down. A story of sex, Nazis, philosophy, forgery, patricide, creation, deception, art, authenticity, rue, rue, and rue all presented with the same eye for false historical verisimilitude that its sources pretended to demand. PHONIES, FRAUDS AND FAKES: A whirlwind tour of some of the greatest liars history and nature have to offer. A list that does not include the author's ex-girlfriend who scammed him for four years, about whom he will not be speaking. IMPOSTERS: Persecuted gay British codebreaker Alan Turing helped develop the first computers and an empirical test for artificial intelligence and other minds. To write about him, the author enlisted the two 1970's robots, ELIZA and PARRY, who first challenged Turing's test. Together with the author, ELIZA and PARRY have written their tribute to Turing: a dark meditation on whether and in what forms our minds really exist.THE ART OF PAINTING'If THE ART OF PAINTING were a real art history lecture, it would be a sophomore's dream. The instructor (Mark Chrisler) is cute, and he makes the lives of long-dead white European men entertaining.' -Anita Gates, The New York Times'. more exciting and intellectually stimulating than anything I remember from college . Chrisler builds a sense of unreliability and mystery, and the twists that follow are a refreshing reminder of the vivid worlds a one-man show can create onstage.' -Marissa Oberlander, Chicago ReaderPHONIES, FRAUDS AND FAKES'What starts as a witty lecture on history's biggest lies soon morphs into the fascinating story of Chrisler's four-year involvement with a girlfriend who turned out to be a pathological liar. As he relates how he fell for one whopper after another, Chrisler is insightful on self-deception and the way great liars exploit our willingness to believe what we want to believe, even when the truth is staring us in the face. Still more ingenious, Chrisler uses those very qualities against us, carefully parceling out information in a way that leaves us eager to know what happens next even after we begin to doubt the reliability of our narrator . an unsettling and irresistible act of storytelling that . illustrates the power of a cracking good yarn.' -Zac Thompson, Chicago ReaderIMPOSTERS'Mark Chrisler credits ELIZA and PARRY as his coauthors on IMPOSTERS, and their influence is undeniably apparent. ELIZA and PARRY were two 'chatterbots': computer programs, dating from 1966 and 1972, respectively, that could generate primitive forms of conversation. Their idiosyncrasies - including ELIZA's tendency to turn everything into a question and PARRY's preoccupation with Mob involvement in horse racing - gradually invade a dialogue between the tragic British computer genius Alan Turing and an interrogator called Nicolas Bourbaki (which is also the nom de plume of a group of mathematicians who specialized in set theory), raising the question of whether Turing and Bourbaki are human . [What emerges is ] a surprisingly vivid sense of anguish as Turing seems to go off program and, well, raise the question of whether he's human.' -Tony Adler, Chicago Reader.…
