Résumé:
"The utopian quest for a pasigraphy" is the newest addition to, the series of posters, initiated by the Palace of Typographic Masonry, bringing both depth and breadth to the collection. A pasigraphy – derived from the Greek words for ‘universal’ and ‘writing’ – is a system where symbols represent concepts, making it intelligible across languages. While icons like those found in airports hint at such universality, they fall short of being complete scripts. Edgar Walthert’s original collection already included some examples of pasigraphs, such as Charles K. Bliss’s Blisssymbols and Yukio Ota’s LoCoS, but he has now found many more. This section gathers 18 attempts to pasigraphies, each offering unique approaches. Some can represent all languages; others reflect their creators’ own, self-devised systems. These scripts range from practical designs to artistic experiments.

Résumé:
Piloting a single-engine biplane high above Washington D.C. in 1920, the intrepid inventor and aviation pioneer Sherman Fairchild first tested his custom-built sky camera, effectively founding the aerial photography company that would bear his name. Roaming America's skies for the next 40 years, the photographers of the Fairchild Aerial Survey Company documented nearly every major city in the United States. Their images, bot maplike shots from high above and low-angle raking views, form a definitive portrait of the American landscape. By the 1970s, the Fairchild archive was scattered across the country. Painstakingly reassembled for this book, the images (many of which have never been seen before) are brought together here for the first time. This large-format book collects over 125 extraordinary images taken between the 1920s and the 1960s. The photographs, valued both as works of art and as tools for urban historians, often capture historic moments: the Capitol Building during Franklin Delano Roosevelt's first inauguration and Yankee Stadium during Don Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series. Others depict architectural lands: the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, the Washington Monument, Hoover Dam, and Alcatraz, to name a few.

It depicts a world in which people are uniformly packed into national containers, enclosed by borders, and in which migration is often represented as threatening invasion arrows. "Free the map" goes beyond this narrow, state-centric cartography. The book argues for a new cartographic story along the lines of Hermes, the grandson of Atlas and the god of mobility and human connections. To this end, it discusses several visually compelling, alternative cartographic representations of borders and migration. "Free the map" ends with a call to action; artists and cartographers offer exciting ready-to-use challenges for educational and public resources.
