Do you want to discover the veiled treasure of Yoga and Pranayama?

Spiro Ergo Sum — The Practice of Pranayama — The weaving of Space and Energy.

Notes on Breath, Space and Energy.

About the connection between yoga and science.

Pressure: Magnitude or vector force? Pressure either change, or: Pressure remains the same: (+ O -). Think about it from within your own Space Laboratory.

Only a light push from within the new-born baby and it begins: Life is that one flow of breath, or a collection, like a mountain of approximately 22,075,000 x 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 … choose your own fraction … seconds or Planck time-units? Twist and turn in any direction: It is Energy.

Spiro ergo sum – I breathe therefore I am – is a book on the practice of Pranayama, the ancient yogic balancing act towards a slow and steady breath flow, paving way for reflection: How, why and where is Energy? It is not a topology of the hole, rather a light on the whole topology. It is not a book focusing on the history of Pranayama, its varieties and techniques, but develops in the line of connecting the practice to updated scientific reports from a wide field.

Thus, Spiro ergo sum is a deep-dive into the human game of Hide & Seek and of Trial & Error: Because if “The Theory of Relativity” is proven to be valid even on a galactic scale (referring to evidence-based research, further elaborated in the text): If “Everything” ultimately is Energy, in Ground Reality: How far do “I” have to go to realize Space?

This is the first book in the series: The Veiled Treasure of Yoga.

The author, Maria Engberg, is born in Sweden, educated at the Royal Institute of Technology – Architecture (KTH) in Stockholm. Trained within a broad physical and spatial field, she is also a long term practitioner of Pranayama.

This volume offers a critical overview of digital reading practices and scholarly efforts to analyze and understand reading in the mediatized landscape. Building on research about digital reading, born-digital literature, and digital audiobooks, The Digital Reading Condition explores reading as part of a broader cultural shift encompassing many forms of media and genres.

Bringing together research from media and literary studies, digital humanities, scholarship on reading and learning, as well as sensory studies and research on multimodal and multisensory media reception, the authors address and challenge print-biased conceptions of reading that are still prevalent in research, whether the reading medium is print or digital. They argue that the act of reading itself is changing, and rather than rejecting digital media as unsuitable for sustained or focused reading practices, they argue that the complex media landscape challenges us to rethink how to define reading as a mediated practice.

Presenting a truly interdisciplinary perspective on digital reading practices, this volume will appeal to scholars and graduate students in communication, media studies, new media and technology, literature, digital humanities, literacy studies, composition, and rhetoric.

The ubiquitous nature of mobile and pervasive computing has begun to reshape and complicate our notions of space, time, and identity. In this collection, over thirty internationally recognized contributors reflect on ubiquitous computing’s implications for the ways in which we interact with our environments, experience time, and develop identities individually and socially. Interviews with working media artists lend further perspectives on these cultural transformations. Drawing on cultural theory, new media art studies, human-computer interaction theory, and software studies, this cutting-edge book critically unpacks the complex ubiquity-effects confronting us every day.
