In the late 1590s, the Sultan secretly commissions a great book: a celebration of his life and empire, to be illuminated by the best artists of the day - in the European manner. At a time of violent fundamentalism, however, this is a dangerous proposition. Even the illustrious circle of artists are not allowed to know for whom they are working.

Intends to make sense of 21st Century pop. Pulling together parallel threads from music, fashion, art, and new media, this title confronts a central paradox of our era: from iPods to YouTube, we're empowered by mind-blowing technology, but too often it's used as a time machine or as a tool to shuffle and rearrange music from yesterday.
