Add to basketNeuware -In graphic design, the focus is rarely on the spontaneous stroke of genius-it's rather about a process-oriented approach to design. Digital tools, algorithms, and systems increasingly shape not only the final outcome but also the process itself. As a result, the role of the designer is changing: instead of crafting every detail, they increasingly design the framework in which design emerges.Over more than twenty years of teaching, Heike Grebin has developed an approach centered on this shift. Its main appeal lies in developing dynamic systems that both guide and inspire the design process. Design is generated by a set of specifications whose effects can be explored, varied, and used creatively-this is parametric design.Play the System demonstrates, through selected examples from design history and academic teaching, how even minimal changes to individual parameters such as size, color, spacing, or movement-driven by input values, chance, or external influences-lead to different outcomes and open up space for variation, experimentation, and surprise.Conversations with designers, programmers, and researchers such as Luna Maurer, Anja Groten, Frieder Nake, and Tom Bieling address key questions: How do systems foster-or limit-creativity How do tools influence aesthetic decisions And how can design respond to the structures of society itself As a hybrid publication, Play the System operates systemically itself. The website play-the-system.xyz complements the book with additional content and serves as the central data source for all projects published through an automated web-to-print process.Play the System is a reader, an introduction, and a richly illustrated archive-all in one. Bringing together theory, education, and practice, it makes system-based and parametric design accessible to readers beyond the design discipline.; Im Grafikdesign geht es selten um den spontanen, genialen Einfall, sondern vielmehr um den prozesshaften Aspekt des Gestaltens. Digitale Werkzeuge, Algorithmen und Systeme prägen heute nicht nur das Ergebnis, sondern auch den Weg dorthin. Damit verändert sich die Rolle von Designer\*innen: Sie gestalten nicht mehr jedes Detail, sondern entwerfen zunehmend Systeme, in denen Gestaltung entsteht.In ihrer über 20-jährigen Lehrtätigkeit hat Heike Grebin einen Ansatz entwickelt, der diesen Wandel ins Zentrum stellt. Der Reiz liegt darin, dynamische Systeme zu entwickeln, die den Gestaltungsprozess gleichzeitig lenken und inspirieren. Gestaltung wird durch ein Set von Vorgaben erzeugt, deren Wirkung sich erforschen, variieren und kreativ nutzen lässt - das ist parametrisches Gestalten.Play the System veranschaulicht anhand ausgewählter Beispiele aus Designgeschichte und Hochschullehre, dass bereits minimale Veränderungen einzelner Parameter wie Größe, Farbe, Abstand oder Bewegung - gesteuert durch Eingabewerte, Zufall oder äußere Einflüsse - zu unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen führen und Spielräume für Variation, Experiment und Überraschung schaffen.Gespräche mit Gestalter\*innen, Programmierer\*innen und Wissenschaftler\*innen wie Luna Maurer, Anja Groten, Frieder Nake und Tom Bieling vertiefen zentrale Fragen: Wie viel Freiheit lassen Systeme Wann begrenzen sie die Kreativität Wie beeinflussen Werkzeuge unsere ästhetischen Entscheidungen Und wie kann Design auf gesellschaftliche Strukturen reagieren Als hybride Publikation funktioniert Play the System selbst systemisch. Die Website play-the-system.xyz erweitert das Buch um zusätzliche Inhalte und liefert zugleich die Daten für alle Projekte, die mithilfe eines automatisierten Web-to-Print-Verfahrens im Buch veröffentlicht werden.Play the System ist Lesebuch, Einführung und visuelles Archiv zugleich. Reich bebildert verbindet es Theorie, Lehre und Praxis und macht systemisches und parametrisches Design auch für fachfremde Leser\*innen verständlich. 320 pp. Englisch.
