Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Diagrammatic Writing is a poetic demonstration of the capacity of format to produce meaning. The articulation of the codex, as a space of semantically generative relations, has rarely (if ever) been subject to so highly focused and detailed a study. The text and graphical presentation are fully integrated, co-dependent, and mutually self-reflexive. This small book work should be of interest to writers, bibliographers, designers, conceptual artists, and anyone interested in the meta-language of diagrammatic thought in graphic form.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A personal book about material anxiety in creative work, The Failed Painter discusses singular and multiple production processes, perfectibility and imperfectability in times of virtual surface, and hunger for authenticity. Writing in the persona of the titular 'failed painter,' Ian Lynam, author of The Impossibility of Silence: Writing for Designers, Artists & Photographers (2021), directly addresses design practitioners by calling them to investigate how the material components of their practice are sourced, delving into everything from the labor conditions of manufacturers to the intricate processes of production and distribution. Lynam grounds his investigation in the day-to-day with a collection of essays on design and art spanning culture, race, nation and sheer vandalism.

It is a compact 'pocket-book' format publication composed of four main sections. The first, 'DIS-BRANDED', is a text of 20 short page-long chapters exposing the ideological underbelly and real-world impact of branding. The second, 'MIXED MESSAGES', is a provocative visual essay illuminating the texts' main themes. The third, 'MANUAL', presents a framework for a critical alternative to corporate branding, humorously appropriating found instructional diagrams as a brand manual satire. This section also includes examples of completed contemporary projects that have implemented post-branding principles. The book concludes with 'CONTEXT', featuring a conversation with cultural theorist Brian Holmes and an argument with design historian Steven Heller. Part design experiment, part critical theory, and part how-to-manual, What is Post-Branding introduces a creative counter to branding's neoliberal orthodoxy.'--Vendor website.
