Résumé:
How does a book feel in the hand? What does its tactility mean in a world in which rising technocracy dominates the designed environment our bodies move through? The essays in this volume—by Lars Bang Larsen, Christopher Breu, Johanna Drucker, Alessandro Ludovico, Esther Krop, Juliette Pepin, Rik Peters and Marieke Sonneveld—explore the importance of human interaction with printed matter, delving into theory and practices in the fields of graphic design, philosophy, science and art. Also included are contributions by artists Sema Bekirovic, Matthieu Blanchard, Christopher Breu, Lieven De Boeck, Frederic Geurts, Esther Krop/De Monsterkamer and Thomas Rentmeister, and introductions to various printing techniques in the form of fictionalized characters.

Résumé:
An Atlas of Agendas is a political, social and economic atlas: informing the public about socio-political power structures and activating opportunities for the self and the commons. The French research and design group Bureau d´Études has been producing maps of contemporary political, social and economic systems that allow people to inform, reposition and empower themselves. Revealing what normally remains invisible, often in the shape of large-sized banners, and contextualizing apparently separate elements within new frameworks, these visualizations of interests and relations re-articulate the dominant symbolic order and actualize existing structures that otherwise remain concealed and unknown. This large-size hardcover book, panoramic in scope and theoretically both profound and accessible, is THE atlas for an emancipatory new citizenship that utilizes the opportunities of info-graphics from the local to the global and back again.

Résumé:
Drawing attention to the visual quality of concentration, sensation, relations, attraction and repulsion Dutch artist Esther Tielemans presents painted panels as decor hanging on the wall, lying on the floor or hanging free in space. Taken together, these forms act almost like props, creating a large-scale abstract landscape for the viewer to wander.
