Stephen Crane

In a career that spanned five decades

and roaring alongside the animals

Observing the structure of nature's forms can help you to be a better designer

George Pérez

The Glass Bead Game The Lion King Stephen CraneIn the remote Kingdom of Castalia, the scholars of the Twenty Third century play the Glass Bead Game. The elaborately coded game is a fusion of all human knowledge of maths, music, philosophy, science, and art. Intrigued as a school boy, Joseph Knecht becomes consumed with mastering the game as an adult. As Knecht fulfils his life long quest he must contend with unexpected dilemmas and the longing for a life beyond the ivory tower.
