Syrup Magazine x Em Cole

I created visuals using a photo portrait of Em Cole, responding to her poem Tributes for Syrup magazine. The poem details Em's own experiences around consent, online abuse, and obsession. Her social media images were stolen and exploited; they now sit in chatrooms on dark parts of the web, being violated by men. They deface her image, print it for masturbation and create an idealised, fantasy version of her. Em's digital doppelganger exists in these chatrooms, and I responded to this with two images - one representing her doppelganger, an online phantom, haunting her as she is reproduced. The second, representing how her images have been distributed. They are shared, printed, reframed, and re-made. I represented this as a digital glitch - her multiple false selves and her true self all existing at once. An image and a real girl trapped in a digital, rape-culture glitch.

. The novel follows the ambitious scientist Victor Frankenstein, who, driven by a desire to overcome death and unlock the secrets of life, creates a human-like creature from reanimated body parts. The story unfolds through a series of letters and narratives, recounting Victor's journey and the consequences of his creation. Set against the backdrop of Europe in the late 18th century, the novel explores themes of scientific ethics, the nature of monstrosity, and the consequences of playing god.

The icy landscapes of the Swiss Alps, the gloomy atmosphere of Ingolstadt, and the desolate expanses where the creature roams contribute to the novel's evocative setting. Frankenstein is often considered a reflection of the cultural and scientific anxieties of the time, with the Industrial Revolution and advancements in science raising questions about the ethical boundaries of scientific exploration. The novel remains relevant today, prompting discussions on the consequences of unchecked ambition and societal rejection of the "other."

Significant adaptations of Frankenstein include numerous film versions, with the iconic 1931 adaptation directed by James Whale featuring Boris Karloff as the monster, and various modern reinterpretations in literature, film, and other media that continue to explore Shelley's themes in new contexts.

Non-free media information and use rationale - non-free book cover for The Female Man

Description

This is the front cover art for the book The Female Man written by Joanna Russ. The book cover art copyright is believed to belong to the publisher, Bantam Books, or the cover artist.

Source

May be found at the following website: http://pictures.abebooks.com/JOHNMCCORMICK/190765400.jpg.

Portion used

The entire front cover. Because the image is a book cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original book cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the book cover creator's ability to provide book cover design services and in turn marketing books to the public.

Replaceable?

As a book cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work.

Other information

Use of the book cover in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

The Female Man Summary

We're not gonna lie: it's tricky to summarize a novel's plot when the thing has four intersecting timelines-even trickier than rocking a rhyme that's right on time (it's tricky). But we'll give it a shot for you, dear Shmooper.

We open (more or less) in Manhattan, 1969. A woman named Joanna is intrigued by the headlines she's seen recently: it seems that Earth has a visitor from a planet run entirely by women. Joanna doesn't own a TV, so she heads to a cocktail lounge where she can watch a live interview with the blonde, attractive lady alien, whose name is Janet Evason Belin.

As she sits in the lounge, Joanna notices another woman there who seems slightly younger than her, and whose clothes are totally out of date. That's Jeannine. She's from... away. Jeannine has no idea why she's suddenly sitting in a cocktail lounge in Joanna's world, but pretty soon she pops out of existence again, so... yeah, no harm, no foul.

Joanna wants to hear everything she can about this Janet from another planet, and over the next month or so she follows all of the media stories covering the Whileawayan emissary's visit. For some reason, Jeannine keeps popping up in Joanna's house, running through walls and getting stuck in mirrors. Joanna figures the world is a strange place, and decides not to worry about it.

Finally, one night while Joanna is standing on Broadway and watching a parade, Janet pulls up in a limousine and invites her in. Jeannine's there too (why, we don't know), and the three J's go on a little joyride.

For six and a half months, Joanna lives with Janet in a large hotel suite and shows her around Manhattan. Jeannine flits in and out of the picture too, and sometimes Janet kicks her. Joanna tries to teach Janet the ins and outs of North American culture, and she tries her best to make the alien woman act like a lady. Janet, for her part, struggles to understand the gender roles that govern Joanna's world.

At a party on Riverside Drive, Janet gets roped into conversations with men who have strong (and not so nice) opinions about the new feminist movement, and about women's incompetence in general. When she and Joanna try to leave, the guy hosting the party assaults them, and Janet beats him up.

Eventually, Janet and Joanna move out of the hotel suite and into the home of an all-American family in Anytown, U.S.A. Janet attends women's luncheons and school fairs, and Joanna hovers around the house like a ghost. Jeannine pops in and out too, like she does. The family's teenage daughter, Laura Rose Wilding, begins to fall in love with their alien guest, and one evening when her parents are out, she and Janet go to bed together.

Here's where things get tricky (we know what you're saying: here is where they're tricky??):

At some point during all of this, Joanna and Jeannine find themselves in Whileaway with Janet. Then, at some point after all of that, Joanna and Janet find themselves in Jeannine's world. There, Jeannine spends a lot of time agonizing about the fact that she's twenty-nine years old and still not married. She's got a boyfriend named Cal, whom she doesn't really like, and a family who keeps nagging her to get on with the whole marriage and babies thing.

During a summer vacation in the Poconos with her brother, his wife and children, and her mother, Jeannine is urged to date around a little so that someone might finally ask to marry her. Eventually, she gives in and telephones ho-hum Cal to come and bring her home, and the two get engaged.

Back in Joanna's world-where Janet and Laura are seeing each other pretty regularly and Jeannine is still doing that thing where she runs in and out of walls-the three J's are getting along okay. Suddenly, they find themselves in a place that none of them has ever seen before: an ultra-modern apartment that seems to be overlooking the East River. There to greet them is a woman named Jael, who explains to them that all of this world-hopping is actually her doing. In her world, probability travel is a fairly new invention (and a pricey one at that), and she's been trying to bring all four of them together for quite some time.

Janet, Jeannine, Joanna, and Jael: suddenly it's clear that all four women are essentially the same person, distinguished only by the unique circumstances that have shaped their lives in their own homeworlds. In Jael's world, women and men have been at war for about forty years-a war that's left Europe looking as pockmarked and scarred as it did after World Wars I and II in Joanna's world (and, you know, ours).

Jael takes the other three J's through the underground cities inhabited by women, and brings them along on a business trip to Manland. The business meeting takes a turn for the worse when Jael assassinates the Boss she was talking to, and the other three J's start to have some doubts about her reliability. After spiriting Janet, Jeannine, and Joanna away to her home in Vermont, Jael tells them why she's brought them all together. What she wants is their support in her war.

The novel ends back in Joanna's world, as Janet, Jeannine, Joanna, Jael, and the novel's omniscient narrator get together for a Thanksgiving dinner at Schrafft's. When Jael repeats her request for support, Jeannine agrees, Janet declines, and Joanna doesn't answer the question. As the women part ways, the narrator bids farewell to The Female Man, and sends it out into the world.

The "Day of the Triffids " is set in an indeterminate "present" as this work of fiction was written during the 1950's. The hero of the story is a biologist named Bill Masen. He specializes in the study, care, and cultivation of the titular triffids. The triffids are large, carnivorous, venomous plants, later revealed to be capable of movement as well as communication and coordination as they were more intelligent than people suspected. In "Day of the Triffids" these dangerous creatures are cultivated for their oils that are described as being "superior to fish or vegetable oils." Bill surmises that triffids are artificially engineered life forms created by the Soviet Republic and spread globally via an accident that results in triffid spores being carried by the wind.

Readers first encounter Bill Masen recuperating in the hospital, temporarily blinded after having his eyes sprayed with triffid venom. While recovering he is told of the occurrence of a green meteor shower. The following day the horrible effects of the green meteor shower are revealed: anyone caught looking directly at the light emitted by the meteor shower has been rendered permanently blind. Bill however is mercifully spared, his eyes shielded by the bandages. The first sight that greets him upon removing his bandages is London in the throes of confusion and chaos. While wandering about a ruined London he chances upon a woman being used a Seeing Eye dog against her will by a blind survivor. The woman is the wealthy novelist and socialite Josella Payton. Bill rescues Josella and they decide to travel together for their mutual protection. They eventually come across a group of sighted survivors led by Michael Beadley, a cruel, opportunistic man who sees the newly blind members of society as inferior and therefore a waste of resources. Beadley plans to create a commune of survivors in the British countryside, discarding the blind, save for a few women whom he intends to use as breeding stock. This plan sickens some of the more morally upright within the group, particularly the devout Ms. Florence Durrant.

These differences in opinion began to create factions within the assembly and before these factions managed to divide the group entirely a fire breaks out at the university where they are hiding in. The arson is Wilfred Coker, a self-proclaimed "champion" of the newly blind. Coker kidnaps a couple of sighted individuals from Beadley's group, including Bill and Josella. The pair are then separated and chained to a blind person allied with Coker and tasked to each lead a squad of the blind taking them on supply runs, triffid defense missions, or fighting off rival scavengers led by a sighted, despotic, red-haired man named Torrence. Bill is compelled to stay with this group of survivors out of a sense of social responsibility, until a mysterious disease starts slowly but steadily killing those in the enclave. He leaves the group to try to find Josella but the only clue he finds of her whereabouts is an address left by the now deceased members of the Beadley faction. Accompanied by Coker, who has now experienced a change of heart, they head out to a community of survivors located in a country manor called Tynsham but Josella isn't among them. In the midst of all the confusion the triffids steadily proliferate, grow stronger, and become more aggressive, overrunning the human populations of certain towns. A young girl named Susan eventually joins Bill as he searches for Josella. He finds and rescues Susan, her brother having been killed by triffids while he was protecting her, their home fenced in by the vicious mobile plants. Together, they eventually succeed in finding Josella, who was taking shelter with a blind group at a house in Sussex. The two are reunited and they live happily for a time as a makeshift family, with Susan being treated as their daughter.

Over time though triffids continued to multiply uncontested as humanity struggles to recover from the pandemic of blindness and the resultant pandemonium. Slowly but steadily they begin to stamp out native flora, making the act of gathering food increasingly more difficult. Bill's group attempt to eke out an existence on Sussex but it proves to be difficult and they are barely able to harvest enough for their needs. A representative from survivor community formerly headed by Beadley arrives on the Sussex group via helicopter. He informs Bill and his group that the Isle of Wight has now been turned into a safe haven for survivors both blind and sighted. Despite the difficulties of their agrarian lifestyle, Bill and his group are reluctant to leave their settlement when offered to join the Isle of Wight colony.

Shortly after their refusal to accept the offer to unite with the Isle of Wight settlement, a battalion of militiamen under the leadership of Torrence suddenly and savagely attacks them. The Torrence faction is a new violently militaristic regime slowly gaining a foothold across England. Their despotic leader proclaims that he intends to use Bill's community as a holding facility for blind survivors. This announcement horrifies the group but Torrence uses Susan as a hostage of sorts, moving her to another district. Bill's group complies with his demands to prevent the loss of lives through conflict and to allow them a chance to rescue Susan and escape. Susan is eventually rescued and Bill and his comrades manage to sabotage the militiamen's vehicles and escape to join forces with the Isle of Wight group. Upon arrival the group establishes itself. Together, Bill and the rest of the inhabitants of the Isle of Wight face an uncertain future on an earth where the triffids have all but supplanted humanity from the top of the food chain.
