Have you found that your employees and\/or customers are dissatisfied with your current vending-machine offerings? Would you like to be on the cutting edge of dispensation technology, allowing your workers to nourish not just their bodies but their <em>minds<\/em> at the touch of a button? If you said <em>yes<\/em> to any of the above, or even if you agreeably shrugged, consider investing in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2015\/nov\/13\/short-story-vending-machines-press-french-commuters-buttons?CMP=fb_gu\" target=\"_blank\">these short-story vending machines by Short \u00c9dition<\/a>. They\u2019re a hit in Grenoble. \u201cThe free stories are available at the touch of a button, printing out on rolls of paper like a till receipt. Readers are able to choose one minute, three minutes or five minutes of fiction \u2026 Users are not able to choose what type of story\u2014romantic, fantastical or comic\u2014they would like to read.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>By 1966, teen music magazines had phenomenal names\u2014<em>Disc and Music Echo<\/em>, <em>Record Mirror<\/em>, <em>Fabulous 208<\/em>, <em>Rave<\/em><em>,<\/em><em> Mirabelle<\/em>,<em> Boyfriend<\/em>,<em> Jackie<\/em>\u2014and, better still, they really had their fingers on the pulse: in their pages, teens could find frank, thoughtful discussions of culture and politics. \u201cThese magazines collectively sold over a million copies every week. They both reflected and shaped the messages broadcast by pop musicians to teens \u2026 Most of the writers were young\u2014some of them even in their teens\u2014and were, or had recently been part of the culture that they reported on \u2026 In general <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newstatesman.com\/politics\/media\/2015\/11\/teen-magazines-caught-sixties-they-happened\">these magazines constituted a thorough investigation of the teenage mindset, its hopes, its obsessions, its fears and aspirations<\/a>. Because, in 1966, pop was for youth: coverage in mainstream newspapers and monthlies was comparatively rare \u2026 It was the arena of the time, but not burdened with self-consciousness or filtered through an excess of opinion and ego.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>While we\u2019re in the sixties: William Blake, though he\u2019d died more than a century earlier, was a countercultural icon because of his sexual permissiveness. Leo Damrosch\u2019s new biography, <em>Eternity\u2019s Sunrise<\/em>, complicates that legacy: \u201cBlake was frequently invoked as a representative of liberation and \u2018positive\u2019 sexuality. The great chorus was: \u2018Everything that lives is holy.\u2019 But in fact Blake \u2018was always aware that sex can be a means of exerting control.\u2019 He was increasingly \u2018tormented\u2019 by the subject and drew naked bodies that were \u2018unerotic, and at times positively repellent,\u2019 a term of revulsion Damrosch later repeats \u2026 Here he takes on board the new feminist criticism of Blake, citing the scholar Helen Bruder: Blake was \u2018<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nybooks.com\/articles\/archives\/2015\/dec\/03\/greatness-william-blake\/\">by turns a searching critic of patriarchy but <em>also<\/em> a hectoring misogynist<\/a>.\u2019 \u201d<\/li>\n<li>On the long, tortured history between literature and the weather: \u201cOur earliest stories about the weather concerned beginnings and endings. What emerged from the cold and darkness of the void will return to it; waters that receded at the origin of the world will rise at its end. It is easy, in grim climatological times, to be drawn to the far pole of these visions \u2026 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2015\/11\/23\/writers-in-the-storm\">But apocalyptic stories are ultimately escapist fantasies, even if no one escapes<\/a>. End-times narratives offer the terrible resolution of ultimate destruction. Partial destruction, displacement, hunger, want, weakness, loss, need\u2014these are more difficult stories.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Moon Hoon, an architect based in Seoul, pours plenty of whimsy into his designs\u2014he\u2019s responsible for Wind House, a home boasting a large, golden tower shaped like a duck\u2019s head\u2014but in his doodles he really goes for broke. Hoon \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wired.com\/2015\/11\/moon-hoons-fantastical-mind-bending-art-and-architecture\/\">creates\u00a0fantastical, stunningly detailed images whose wild creativity bring to mind, among other things, 1960s Radical Futurism, Russian Constructivism, and Transformers<\/a> \u2026 Just the other day, he says, his creativity was triggered by a tray of delivery food that looked like a hat. Other sources of inspiration have included cars, planes, warships, Japanese animation, Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s notebooks, and watching movies backwards.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you the proprietor or manager of a commuter-rail system, an office, a truck stop, or a faculty lounge?
