A24: DARREN ARONOFSKY’S π DIARIES
Book
324 pp.
6 × 8 in
49

About:
In 1998 Darren Aronofsky was a 27-year-old would-be filmmaker struggling to make his first feature, Pi. This book is his diary of those years—alongside hundreds of photos and materials pulled from the archives. In collaboration with Fabian Bremer this book was designed as a container of sorts. An ephemeral collection, that can be filed itself through the holes drilled into the book object. The glossy sections in between the chapters are layed out as messy maniac wall posters that are then cut into 16 page signatures. A re-ocurring layout headache, that refers to Aronofsky’s filmmaking in a very literal way.

This is the second cover I did for Laura Bielau: Her latest publication TEST, which started with a colony of ants that she temporarily set up in her studio. In this experimental arrangement, she observed the hierarchical and state-building organization of the insects. In our personal hierarchical organization I did the cover and she did the interior of the book. Read more and definitely buy the book via the Spector Books website.

About:
A workshop format I have carried through multiple iterations at different occasions. After the first attempts at DHBW Ravensburg I announced the class in the following way for the Hangzhou Design Summer program in China:

—The List
—The List will build the assignment

—The List is the creation of a culture that seeks for order
—The List does not only sort what is given in the past or present
—The List can draft instructions for future action
—The List is a self-expression
—The List can be counterintuitive poetry

—The List can be purely typographic

—The List has always changed and continues to do so
—The List is more than the sum of its parts
—The List will help us to find systematic approaches on design
—The List will set the rules individually

—The List will balance content and creativity
—The List will be the result

Identity

46

About:
This years Pochen Symposium is circling around "fragility" in local and global challenges of Eastern Europe, to prepare the following Biennale in 2024. The graphic identity (developed with Elias Erkan) is looking into the methodology of a symposium instead of facing visual aspects of the topic: Diagrams, direction, left, right, linearity, complexity, and not lastly arrows seemed like a rich world to dive into. Besides that we developed a language system that prevents hierarchy by rotating order and seamless transitions from sentence to sentence. It’s giving a seemingly language free thought.

HUNGRY FOR TIME
Book
320 pp.
230 × 290 mm
45

About:
The Indian-based Raqs Media Collective has selected works from the historical art collection of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna which were set against current positions. In a process of decolonialization the book continues a rather challenging and controversal take on exhibition-making. The book structure transfers the exhibition scenes directly into print and provides a poetic outline in a continuous image caption. Appearence and reappearence of silver printed ghost images additionally opens a layer of context. It took various Schnitzels and deep laptop investigations to finish this book in a period of 1.5 years.

Silver Wire-O binding with three different paper stocks, 4C+silver printing and shortened pages. The cover is a 6 page wrap around with three small spines covering the spiral. An additional cardboard is inserted in the back to support the spiral.

NAM JUNE PAIK: I Expose the Music
Book
242 pp.
230 × 330 mm
43

About:
This publication spotlights on a feature of Nam June Paik’s work that has been largely overlooked: live moments, a consistent element running all through his artistic career. One focus of the book is on the way Paik approaches music as a score, a concept, and an event. The immediate experience of the audience and their active involvement are crucial components in Paik’s work. This resulted in a very open design framework with a lot of flexibility for improvisation aswell as an interactive piano keyboard on the spine of the book.

About:
This publication is based on Robert Stürzl’s discussions with the architect, civil engineer, and artist Hans-Walter Müller, who has been developing forms of pneumatic architecture since the late 1960s. The book combines conversations, photographs and drawings from Müller’s archive with early texts written by the architect and a comprehensive catalogue raisonné. The publication thus provides German readers with the first in-depth study of the life’s work of the visionary architect and champion of living architecture.

About:
The video series On the Road to Change brings people in Los Angeles, Berlin, Athens and Delhi into conversation about what democracies can learn from the pandemic. It is a cooperation of the Goethe-Institut and Thomas Mann House in Los Angeles. Design derives from painted street typography that is stretched for legibility in movement. Five volumes, five bold colors, global discussions and plenty reasons to give this project a watch.

Concept and branding for the video series with all components and some communication adaptions. All credits for movements to Hanna Viellehner, queen of Aftereffects.

MEDIAN GROTESK (B.A.)
Typeface
825 glyphs

About:
The typeface Median Grotesk is designed with a systematic approach to type design. It visualizes a cross-section of the most relevant sans-serif typefaces, measured in various categories from expert opinions to sales reports. The result was aiming to function as a document or a »screenshot« of sans-serif typefaces in the here and now.

Designed with the legend of Daniel Zenker as part of our shared B.A. project at DHBW Ravensburg.

Characterset:
Latin/Western European (472 glyphs) in three cuts: Regular, Italic and Reverse

Besides the generated and calculated Regular cut, the two additional cuts Reverse and Italic visualize the extreme values of the research process and appear metaphorically leaning back into the past and forward into the future.

The typeface and its trials are available here.
