Mind Games
Designer: Noah Venezia
Pages: 160
Format: 117 x 171 mm mm
Price: € 15,00
A quadrangled story about shades and variations in co-dependence and sovereignty, inspired by a musician (John Lennon), a theorist (Henry Lefebre), an author (Halldor Laxness) and a demnted ruler of Rome (Caligula). Mindgames is constituted by four parts – ordered in alternating sequence – to form thirteen chapters in total. Each of the four sections holds a biographical account of its subject: Caligula, Henri Lefebvre, John Lennon and Halldór Laxness. The chapters can be read separately, as they have been conceived to be independent wholes, forming biographies that present portraits of associations rather than particular statements about individual lives. The text, however, is constructed to alternate rhythmically between the main motives. The motives in turn produce variations on particular themes as they modulate into different parts within the totality of the work as a whole. Mindgames was conceived as a way to enjoy information in the tradition of autodidacts of the past – but in a style which is commingled with a reverence towards traditional modes of archiving the world. The author will give a talk about the ideas behind the work and selected chapters will be read.

To Err is Almost Human
Project by: DAI / Dutch Art Institute, CasCo
Designer: Cecilia Costa
Pages: 24
Price: € 7,00
Chris Meighan’s graduation publication To err is almost human concerns the creation of a machine capable of drawing itself. This work is an example of ‘Technical research as artistic medium’, a process further developed by Meighan since this publication was written. In this presentation he will explain the wider context of what this means in artistic and in social terms, and how making and technical discovery are both political acts and tools of personal empowerment. He will also address the concept of ‘emergence’, the idea of complex systems that can (appear to) take on a life of their own, and what this means for the autonomy of the artist and the work of art.

WT reader: The Summer Reader, Again, or A Diamond in the Rough
Project by: Werkplaats Typografie
Designer: Cecilia Costa, Scott Ponik
Pages: 256
Format: 105 x 175 mm mm
Price: € 12,00
Being at once a school and at the same time not a school, a workspace, the Werkplaats Typografie (WT) tends to want to comment on its own distinctive form of academic pursuit (by way of, amongst other outlets, these School Journals). And during this sometimes faltering, sometimes successful quest, I’ve often thought about Jacques Rancière’s Ignorant Schoolmaster. Five Lessons in Intellectual Emancipation, not least because it outlines an “intellectual adventure” whereby any hierarchy amongst the students and between them and their tutor dissolves.

Speaking of Frames

Designer: Julie Peeters
Price: € 7,00
Emily: “This publication is in a process of finding out what it is as I do it. I find myself amidst a development in my work. This publication falls in the middle of that as a holder. This development is me trying to move away from transforming objects physically to transforming gm rolex day date 228349bkdp rolex calibre 2836 2813 mens 12mm them through talking about them, or to find a way to incorporate the narrative that arises from a work, as the more dominant part of the work. Through talking about objects, this can be used to place them in a different context, create networks between objects and address associations made through objects.”
