Résumé:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 17, we examine Metropolitan Architecture as the embodiment of the metropolis, an urban environment which has the ambition of becoming a world in itself, absorbing and swallowing different ecologies. Metropolitan Architecture embraces this condition and tends to reproduce the overwhelming diversity of the metropolis in itself. It develops its own way of engaging with formal consequences, in an attempt to organise the abundance of information into a crystallized architectural form. Deeply embedded in the european context, the metropolis of Paris coulf never be fully realised. projects shown here are perhaps expressing this position. They are bold depictions of the envelope, consciously lacking the interior and the detailed luster.

An eye-opening book about the 1980s New York art scene, its far-reaching effects on contemporary art, and the rise of some of the biggest names in the art world today. This groundbreaking book, accompanying a major exhibition at the Hirshhorn, tells the story of the evolution of New York’s downtown art scene in the 1980s—from a DIY counterculture in the East Village to a legitimate gallery business in SoHo. Coinciding with the rise of modern branding and the onset of the information age, artists’ focus on commodities and consumerism began as satire but came to be much more complex: commodities and associated phenomena, such as advertising, now served as vessels for ideas, politics, and personal relationships in “brand-new” types of painting, sculpture, photography, installation, and performance.

"New York City Transit Authority: objects" originated as a photography experiment. In 2011, New York photographer Brian Kelley began documenting collections of used MetroCards in his Brooklyn studio, arranging them in various grids with the goal of perfecting the lighting of an image. His brother suggested he make the grids more interesting by finding other types of cards. Having exhausted his search for discarded MetroCards in many of the city’s 472 subway stations, Kelley turned to eBay for new finds. The online rabbit-hole gave him a crash course in the history of NYC transportation. Six years on, many MTA employees follow and advocate his project, sometimes contacting him with information and tips on rare items. As the collection grew, Kelley recognized that there were no comparable digital archives documenting the city’s transportation evolution.

Résumé:
The age of multimedia constitutes a great challenge for libraries as they have to reinvent themselves to meet the constantly growing demands of digital applications. As a result, within the past decade, libraries have evolved from introverted hoards of knowledge to globally networked information and communication hubs. The architectural implementation of this transformation process has resulted in sophisticated buildings that succeed in combining impressive architecture with the complex contemporary requirements. The new edition of "Masterpieces : library architecture + design" shows that this process of transformation is far from over. Whether new building, conversion or extension, it presents new masterpieces of library design from around the world. The successful combination of contemporary architecture and cutting-edge technology is evidence that in the digital age, this type of building is as topical as never before.

Famed worldwide for his epically-proportioned photographs, Andreas Gursky is one of very few contemporary artists able to represent cultures of excessive information--which he does through images of supermarket wares, crowds, trash, architecture and nature. The extreme detail of Gursky's final image--achieved by digital restructuring--produces a vertiginous effect on the viewer, as it oscillates between total representation and total abstraction. It could be said that Gursky updates the eighteenth-century sublime for our times. This publication surveys the artist's most recent creations, on display at the renowned Kunstmuseum Basel throughout the winter of 2007/2008. Two new groups of works in particular, one on Formula One races and the other on the famous Arirang Festival (a closely-choreographed mass spectacle in North Korea's capital of Pyongyang), are gathered here.

With this book they can profit from a broad view of phenomena related to disorientation-disorientation in scientific disciplines, in our environments, and in expressive presentations. On the one hand, this should make it possible for designers to benefit from attitudes to the topic derived from experience and to move from confusion to visual reflection. On the other, it will enable scholarly disciplines to explore the formation of categories that can move things forward. This visual study is accompanied by heterogeneous brief texts. Images and texts are thus placed in a relationship of mutual reflections rather than confronted with one another in a commentary or illustration.

From the realm of interior design, for example, it deals with ceilings, floors, doors, windows, stairs, etc., from that of material science, with carpets, wallpaper, wall paint, glass, wood materials, stone, and concrete. It also presents architectural drawing: techniques of representation, descriptive geometry, technical drawing, standard dimensions, signs and symbols, and mathematical foundations; attention is also given to the fundamentals of graphic design, preparing documents for publication, file formats, and color systems. All of this is generously leavened with practical examples; original essays by Ruedi Baur, Axel Kufus, Norbert Rademacher, Martin Kunz, and others; and thought-provoking quotations. If they want to, readers may separate the pages of the Japanese binding, this way they get room to add their personal notes and comments.

Guided by her father, a prominent scientist, Atkins was inspired by William Henry Fox Talbot to take up photography and was friends with Sir John Herschel, who invented the cyanotype photographic process in 1842. The next year, Atkins began making cyanotypes in an effort to illustrate and distribute information about her herbarium. The result was "Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions", the first book to be illustrated with photographs. A decade later, she and her friend Anne Dixon expanded their visual inquiry to flowering plants, feathers, and other subjects. This volume is a revised and expanded edition of a long out-of-print monograph that first secured Atkins's place in the history of photography.

It shows how sex was first used to sell industrial hardware, how Orphan Annie still keeps the world on track, and how an Arabian Nights wonderland of mass entertainment and suggestion makes information irrelevant, and sends us to bed at night too dazed to question whether we’re happy or not. We live in an age in which legions of highly educated professionals dedicate themselves to the task of getting inside the collective public mind with the object of manipulating, exploiting and controlling.
