Résumé:
Over the now more than forty-five years that he has been studying and exploring photography, Christian Vogt has discovered new visual vocabularies again and again. In his new work, consisting almost exclusively of contrasting pairs of pictures, he continues to question the relationship between visible reality and its photographic reproduction, between image and text, between seeing and knowing. Using a pinhole camera and modern technology without the intervention of digital manipulation, he deals with the “necessary nonsense,” with unifying opposites, with actual and supposed paradoxes, defining some things through exploration and allowing others to remain undefined.

Résumé:
The exhibition ‘Sensing Place’, which took place at the House of Electronic Arts Basel, engages with urban environments, new digital infrastructure and municipal space concepts. The transformed perception of cities and urban space due to today’s data-oriented society forms a major focus, wherein the mediatisation of the urban landscape plays a significant role. The increasing, hybridising overlap of physical urban space and virtual information space in everyday life is explored through a range of theoretical and artistic positions. Contributors include Sabine Himmelsbach, Dietmar Offenhuber, Mark Shepard, Yolande Harris, Christian Nold and Gordan Savii, among others.

Résumé:
Born in Paris, Pierre di Sciullo is a central figure in both French graphic design and typography. At the international level, he is one of the pioneers who first designed digital typefaces. His truculent, literary, and at times insolent work explores various paths, from an infinite taste for logic and a total absence of presumption about letterforms and type history, to the glyph observed from its geometry and colorimetry, or the permanent oscillations between a rigorous methodology and poetic results. This monograph of Di Sciullo’s work takes the form of an extensive, precisely detailed and broadly illustrated interview.

Résumé:
The Artful Plan explores the potentials of architectural drawing at a turning point where digitization is setting drawing free from its conventional function of conveying technical information. What can architectural drawing be today? What new options does it offer for creativity in design? Which new ways does it open for including knowledge and methods from the arts, academic research and current architectural practice? The Artful Plan lays out the theory and practice of alternative innovation in architectural drawing in three parts: reconfiguring the conventional drawing; drawing responding to the influence of the digital; and the expanded field of drawing today.

Résumé:
Robertson’s unconventional history of the origins of the information age posits the filing cabinet as an information storage container, an 'automatic memory' machine that contributed to a new type of information labor privileging manual dexterity over mental deliberation. Gendered assumptions about women’s nimble fingers helped to naturalize the changes that brought women into the workforce as low-level clerical workers. The filing cabinet emerges from this unexpected account as a sophisticated piece of information technology and a site of gendered labor that with its folders, files, and tabs continues to shape how we interact with information and data in today’s digital world.

Résumé:
'Strange Networks' debuts a new body of artwork and studies by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Thom Mayne. Emerging from the same interests that shape the design philosophy of his internationally renowned architecture firm Morphosis, the works explore the tension between organizational systems and chance behavior, between the manual and digital, and between individual and collective authorship. Reproduced in detail, the intricate lithographic prints and digitally derived sculptural works -- or 'drawdels' for how they combine the notion of drawing and modelling - -embody a search for forms and methods resonant with our contemporary state of instability and hyper-connection.

Résumé:
Cities participate in the production of meaning by providing places populated with objects for words to refer to. Inscriptions on these objects (labels, billboards, newspapers, graffiti) provide another layer of meaning. And today, the flow of digital information - from one device to another in the urban scene - creates a digital network that also exists in physical space. "Placing Words" examines this emerging system of spaces, flows, and practices in a series of short essays - snapshots of the city in the twenty-first century. Mitchell questions the necessity of flashy downtown office towers in an age of corporate web sites. He casts the shocked-and-awed Baghdad as a contemporary Guernica. He describes architectural makeovers throughout history, listing Le Corbusier's Fab Five Points of difference between new and old architecture, and he discusses the architecture of Manolo Blahniks. He pens an open letter to the Secretary of Defense recommending architectural features to include in torture chambers. He compares Baudelaire, the Parisian flaneur, to Spiderman, the Manhattan traceur. He describes the iPod-like galleries of the renovated MoMA and he recognizes the camera phone as the latest step in a process of image mobilization that began when artists stopped painting on walls and began making pictures on small pieces of wood, canvas, or paper. The endless flow of information, he makes clear, is not only more pervasive and efficient than ever, it is also generating new cultural complexities.
