Out into the world goes the narrator from Save Me From Tomorrow, who at different times calls himself Sal, Nick or Jake, names of his favorite characters in American fiction. He goes out in search of adventure and experiences like those of his literary heroes, Kerouac, Fitzgerald and Hemingway. At age twenty-three he gives up his unexceptional job in Manhattan and plans to explore the highways and byways of America. Then a chance meeting with an old friend and the appearance of a beautiful and intriguing girl named Val cause him to alter his plans and shift locations to London. Working in the somewhat seedy yet vibrant world of a London pub, he encounters an eclectic assortment of Londoners and American expatriates, each with stories and secrets of their own. His story quickly becomes intertwined with theirs as he continues his pursuit of Val and seeks to live the fantastic life he imagined. When the lives of his fellow travelers begin to converge, the consequences of his quest become all too real.

Quantum Phase Transitions in Cold Atoms and Low Temperature Solids

By: Kaden Richard Alan Hazzard

The primary focus of this thesis is to theoretically describe nanokelvin experiments in cold atomic gases, which offer the potential to revolutionize our understanding of strongly correlated many-body systems. The thesis attacks major challenges of the field: it proposes and analyzes experimental protocols to create new and interesting states of matter and introduces theoretical techniques to describe probes of these states. The phenomena considered include the fractional quantum Hall effect, spectroscopy of strongly correlated states, and quantum criticality, among others. The thesis also clarifies experiments on disordered quantum solids, which display a variety of exotic phenomena and are candidates to exhibit so-called "supersolidity." It collects experimental results and constrains their interpretation through theoretical considerations. This Doctoral Thesis has been accepted by Cornell University, Ithaca, USA.

Richard Prince: Super Group

By: Richard Prince

While Richard Prince (born 1949) is most often discussed for his strategies as an appropriation artist--from the Marlboro cowboys in the 1980s to the Instagram portraits today--it is his own work as a painter that stands at the center of his approach: starting with paintings of jokes and cartoons, following up with, among other things, nurses and cowboys taken from the covers of dime novels, and freewheeling riffs on Picasso and de Kooning. For his extensive new series Super Group, Prince uses objects loaded with meaning: the inner sleeves of vinyl records, which he collages on canvas and then overpaints with band names, abstract washes and funny figures. Richard Prince: Super Grouppresents 51 works in this new series, engaging with the question of how we define ourselves by our choices of objects, images and music.
