Inhaltsangabe

Printed in only chroma-key green and chroma-key blue Pantone inks ; this publication works as it’s own portable green-screen studio. The risograph insert was produced during a three-day performative workshop, Swap Party ; using images made on-site by the artist utilising the book as backdrop for photographing of the hands and wristwatches of the attending visitors. Swap Party took place during Book Days in Berlin ; 2016. The text ; written by Marge Monko with quotes by Erica Jong ; Jaques Lacan ; Karl Marx and Hermann Weyl ; is a play for male and female actor in five parts. It is based on the construction of desire used in advertising photography – a genre in which stylistic means have changed over time ; but its semantic meaning has always remained the same. Two actors – female and male – read sentences from different wrist watch advertisements from the 1970s and 1980s ; and re-enact the compositions of hands used in these advertisements. The shapes and graphic elements in this book are inspired by these ads. This publication is an interpretation and re-work of the publication ; Don’t Wind It Up ; Turn It On published by Lugemik.
