The feeling of space
$79.00
(available to order)
Summary:
Place is something real, but space is generally conceived as abstract and immaterial. In ''The Feeling of Space'', Christopher Bardt explores this damaging modern binary and traces the contradictory impulses that have dematerialized our sense of space through history: fear and wonder; a yearning for the infinite and the intimate; and the need for autonomy and for(...)

Summary:
Place is something real, but space is generally conceived as abstract and immaterial. In ''The Feeling of Space'', Christopher Bardt explores this damaging modern binary and traces the contradictory impulses that have dematerialized our sense of space through history: fear and wonder; a yearning for the infinite and the intimate; and the need for autonomy and for belonging. Using rich illustrations and examinations of art, technology, and philosophy, Bardt argues that if we can get back to first feeling space, then we can treat space as the substance that gives agency to our intersubjectivity—our exchange of conscious and unconscious thoughts.

Summary:
Urbanism is inherently conflict-driven, as Eve Blau points out in an interview in this issue of ‘MONU’. According to her, because cities are places of power, representation, and contestation, processes of urbanisation involve a certain amount of violence and destruction, which is both positive and negative. Various authors and perspectives go on to explore this notion in(...)

Summary:
Urbanism is inherently conflict-driven, as Eve Blau points out in an interview in this issue of ‘MONU’. According to her, because cities are places of power, representation, and contestation, processes of urbanisation involve a certain amount of violence and destruction, which is both positive and negative. Various authors and perspectives go on to explore this notion in depth. Topics range from the Syrian refugee crisis, where people reshape their places and identities while navigating the complex structures of belonging, to sprawl and emptiness as a chief tool of protection in Australian capital cities and how the youth of Kyiv are returning to life as usual the Ukrainian capital.

Cato Lein: Northern silence
$83.00
(available in store)
Summary:
The images appearing in "Northern silence" were taken over a period of 25 years, from the mid-1980s to 2012, at the far northern tip of Norway, where photographer Cato Lein grew up, in Finnmark. The mood is dull, with a blackness that reminds one of the sharp contrasts belonging to social documentary, rather than classic landscape photography. Over the last 50 years, the(...)

Summary:
The images appearing in "Northern silence" were taken over a period of 25 years, from the mid-1980s to 2012, at the far northern tip of Norway, where photographer Cato Lein grew up, in Finnmark. The mood is dull, with a blackness that reminds one of the sharp contrasts belonging to social documentary, rather than classic landscape photography. Over the last 50 years, the appearance of the Varanger Peninsula has changed dramatically. It has become warmer and the tundra is on the verge of disappearing. Moss grows on the bare granite mountains of the past, and Arctic birches are being replaced by southern varieties.
