Guide To Navigation—the ETAF-Amazon Collection

Many pages at this site contain references to works of art that are available in books, CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, posters, and other media. Some of these—works that are part of the ETAF-Amazon Collection—can be purchased through the ETAF-Amazon Association. (See the ETAF-Amazon Collection page for details).

This page explains how to navigate so you can participate in and receive the benefits of ETAF-Amazon Association.

About the ETAF-Amazon association

At ETAF, our goal is to bring the arts to you and you to the arts. We believe that anything that facilitates this process helps the arts.

To further this goal, ETAF has established an affiliation with Amazon, the giant online retailer, called the ETAF-Amazon Association. We call the assembly of books, audio CDs, DVDs, and other arts-related materials that you can obtain through this affiliation the ETAF-Amazon Collection:

• The ETAF-Amazon Association is a business association between ETAF, sponsors of this web site, and Amazon, the well-known online retailer. Visitors to Electricka's web site can buy wisely and enjoy other benefits when acquiring worthwhile works of art through this association.

• When you buy, you are buying directly from Amazon, which is solely responsible for all aspects and phases of your transaction.

• A portion of every purchase made through the Association is returned to ETAF, which uses the funds in part to keep this web site going.

About the ETAF-Amazon Collection

• The ETAF-Amazon Collection is the assembly of art-related works ETAF has chosen for the Association.

• By far, not all of the items you can buy at Amazon are members of the Collection. Only works that ETAF recommends are members of the Collection:

  • To be a member of the Collection, a work or performance must, in the opinion of Electricka and/or visitors to this site, be of high quality; it must be available at a price commensurate with its value.

  • ETAF remains staunchly objective and independent when it recommends arts resources for the ETAF-Amazon Collection. It always keeps you and the arts in mind.
     

• How can you tell if an item is a member of the Collection?

  • An item is a member of the Collection if it is cited on a page that bears the ETAF-Amazon image (see above or at the right) in a section at or near the bottom of the page entitled ETAF Recommends.

For more information about the benefits of the Association and about the Collection, visit the ETAF-Amazon Page at this web site.
