MAPPING THE LIBRARY is the outcome of a workshop conducted by Experimental Jetset at Werkplaats Typografie, May – June 2010, part of the annual Best Books project at WT. Participants were asked to turn their favourite books 2009 into maps; consequently, formal connections among the selected books were made that in turn resulted in a giant 16-piece collective map. Working with the format of the newspaper, every student was given one sheet. The inside spread was used for the individual maps, the cover for the part of the collective map showing the chosen book. The back gave information about the book and allowed students to explain their interpretation.

A Disposition for a Tale of an Investigation about an Ordinary Man by Julio Pastor
Project by: Dutch Art Institute Enschede / DAI, CasCo
Designer: Annett Höland
Pages: 32
Format: 170 x 240 mm mm
Price: € 8,00
For a short period, the artist Julio Pastor was allowed to occupy apartment 603 in a building in Delft before it was pulled down. During his time there, he set out to collect any traces he could find of the people who had lived in the apartment before by means of watercolour painting, polaroid and digital photographs. At the end of his stay Julio Pastor left behind all of the work he had produced in the apartment. This publication is the only surviving record of Julio Pastor’s investigation. In the process of creating it, the novelist Pierre Leroux re-signified apartment 603’s human traces by turning evidence into fiction. After Leroux, through the design of the publication, a new perspective on the project was discovered. The booklet brings to life reflections on shared notions of translation in the design process by putting the images of the artist back on the wall and rephotographing them.
