Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. On the ever-decreasing distinction between those who produce digital data, those who design its visualisation and those who use it as a new form of cartography. Mapmaking has been an essential part of human development since ancient times: through the art of cartography, people have been able to record geographical explorations and communicate spatial information in relation to themselves and the land around them, using fixed points and lived experiences as references. In the digital age, maps are just as likely to convey the relationships between individual users and amorphous data as they are to depict the relationships between human beings and the stars and planets above. Blind Maps and Blue Dots examines the impact of the omnipresent computer on current understandings of data visualisation and graphic design, in which the boundaries between producers and users of maps has become increasingly blurred. This text is structured around three contemporary mapmaking practices: Google Maps\' location function, referred to as the Blue Dot; a global map that displays the physical activity of users of the fitness app Strava; and the "Situation in Syria" maps series, a regularly updated map of the Syrian conflict designed by an Amsterdam teenager. Like every other field, graphic design must evolve to reflect the modern world and the needs of its people. Blind Maps and Blue Dots offers a new approach that acknowledges and even encourages the breakdown of the binary between producer and user. AUTHOR: Joost Grootens is a graphic designer, researcher at Leiden University and program leader of the Information Design Master's degree program at the Design Academy Eindhoven. SELLING POINTS: .

Paperback. Condition: New. The shift towards digital modes of production has fundamentally changed both cartography and graphic design. The omni-present computer, the interactive possibilities of digital media and the direct exchange of visual information through networks have blurred the distinction between designers and users of visual information.Blind Maps and Blue Dots is the first work to explore the disappearing boundaries between producers and users of maps. Using three mapmaking practices as examples - the Blue Dot, the location function in Google Maps; the Strava Global Heatmap, a world map showing the activities of a fitness app; and the "Situation in Syria" maps, a regularly updated map of the Syrian conflict made by an Amsterdam teenager - renowned designer Joost Grootens shows the blurring of the binary distinction between producing and using, ultimately offering a whole new approach to graphic design.…

Hardback. Condition: New. The Dutch photobook is internationally recognized for its innovative and collaborative approach between photographers, printers, and designers. Dutch graphic designers have long worked at the forefront of their discipline, often crossing existing boundaries and exploring new territories-qualities that have become an integral part of contemporary Dutch photobook culture. The current photobook publishing boom in the Netherlands springs from a long-standing tradition of excellence. This tradition precedes WWII, but the aftermath of the war marked a period of particularly close collaboration between photographers and designers. Their contributions led to such unique photography books as Ed van der Elsken's Love on the Left Bank (1956) and Chili September by Koen Wessing (1973). Innovations such as the photo novel and the company photobook bloomed in the 1950s and 60s. Later, other genres emerged as part of the publishing landscape, including conceptual and documentary works. The Dutch Photobook will feature selections from approximately one hundred historic, contemporary, and self-published photobook projects, including landmarks such as Hollandse taferelen by Hans Aarsman (1989), The Table of Power by Jacqueline Hassink (1996), Why Mister Why by Geert van Kesteren (2006), and Empty Bottles by Wassink Lundgren (2007). Dutch photo historians Frits Gierstberg and Rik Suermondt contribute several texts on the history of the genre, the collaborative efforts between photographers and designers, and their inspiration and influences, to complement the special, high-quality reproductions of photobooks. Award-winning designer Joost Grootens contributes unique charts and diagrams that bring all of these elements together, forming a visually unique map of the Dutch photobook.…

Paperback, 23 cm, 88 pp. Ills.: kleurenillustraties. Globalisering heeft grote voordelen gebracht, maar tevens ook nadelen. De wereldwijde handel in consumentengoederen heeft geresulteerd in uniformiteit van het aanbod, bedreigt het voortbestaan van de lokale tradities en globalisering heeft het milieu zeker niet gespaard. De roep om een herwaardering van oude technieken en historisch gegroeide conventies kan rondom ons steeds meer gehoord worden. Dit neemt soms de vorm van nostalgische vervoering over de nationale identiteit en veronderstelde tradities. Soms worden de oorspronkelijke ambachten en tradities onderzocht vanuit een hedendaags perspectief. Ontwerpers kunnen een belangrijke rol spelen bij de ontdekking van nieuwe mogelijkheden, zoals wij zien uit een groeiend aantal design projecten, waaronder die van de studenten van de IM-masteropleiding aan de Design Academy in Eindhoven. De studentenpopulatie vertegenwoordigt een kleurrijke waaier van nationaliteiten, een meerwaarde waar optimaal gebruik van gemaakt kon worden tijdens de twee trimesters eind 2008 en begin 2009. De studenten van de IM-masteropleiding onderzochten traditionele technieken uit hun eigen land van herkomst en formuleerden ontwerpvoorstellen die deze technieken en tradities een plaats zouden kunnen geven in onze huidige tijd. Deze vijfde editie van Source bevat essays en een interview over het thema van het ontwerpen van Global Choices, geschreven door experts in het veld, docenten en studenten, evenals voorbeelden van de studenten 'onderzoek en ontwerpvoorstellen.
