Summary:
Earth has been reinventing itself for more than four billion years, keeping a record of its experiments in the form of rocks. Yet most of us live our lives on the planet with no idea of its extraordinary history, unable to interpret the language of the rocks that surround us. Geologist Marcia Bjornerud believes that our lives can be enriched by understanding our heritage on this old and creative planet. Contrary to their reputation, rocks have eventful lives–and they intersect with our own in surprising ways. In "Turning to stone," Bjornerud reveals how rocks are the hidden infrastructure that keep the planet functioning, from sandstone aquifers purifying the water we drink to basalt formations slowly regulating global climate.

Summary:
Bauhaus Weaving Theory deftly reframes the Bauhaus weaving workshop as central to theoretical inquiry at the school. Putting questions of how value and legitimacy are established in the art world into dialogue with the limits of modernism, Smith confronts the belief that the crafts are manual and technical but never intellectual arts.

Summary:
Printed Pages is an arts and design magazine which focuses on depth and discovery, combining engaging and accessible content with top-notch design values. Published twice a year, it is a compendium of the best work featured on itsnicethat.com, curated and designed by the editorial and creative team. For this issue, Printed Pages delves deep into the Bauhaus archives 100 years after the school opened its doors, with a little help from Pentagram partner Sascha Lobe, who designed both the cover and the poster. Inside, there's a report on what went down when they spent a week at Eike König's ''After School Club'', a trip to Nigeria with designer Lemi Ghariokwu, and a look at what must be the world's most heated bonfire rivalry.
