    Challenging the colonial narratives surrounding the Netflix film Against the Ice, this personal, editorial project by a present-day descendant opens-up to cultural and historical inclusion by broadening the storytelling. The new Netflix film Against the Ice is based on the adventures of a Danish polar explorer, captain, and coloniser in Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), who marked his agenda and achievements in books and maps that contributed to the production of 'collective memory' and the dominant history of Nordic colonialism. This book is designed and edited by Gudrun Havsteen-Mikkelsen, the great-granddaughter of this same explorer, in collaboration with designer Anna Bierler. Combining visual and textual contributions, archival material, dialogues, and controversies, Snowblindness - Let's talk about storytelling, colonialism, Netflix and my great grandfather presents new grounds for engagement with the polar explorer's stories, whether these are visually, orally, or textually transferred. The result is a generous and vulnerable reader, which weaves information from a multiplicity of sources, and places particular emphasis on collaboration, trust, and questioning. Our lives resonate through storytelling. The writing and rewriting of history, family stories handed down through generations, the inclusion of plural perspectives and subsequent broadening of conversations; our identities are made by narratives colliding and shifting. In Snowblindness, colonial narratives are challenged through such storytelling, encouraging a questioning of history, ethics, and aesthetics.

    Exploring the intersection between cultural production, cognitive capitalism, the politics of sleep and its psychocultural implicationsDeveloped by Amsterdam-based Slovenian artist and researcher Andrea Knezovic (born 1990) in collaboration with editor-curator Agata Bar, curator Tia Cicek and graphic designer Miquel Hervás Gómez, Nocturnalities: Bargaining Beyond Rest looks at how technology can assist, instead of coopting, care urgencies and needs. What is rest if not the space of safety? How can we use or appropriate care methodologies in capitalism and create little oases of comfort, exchange and "communal comradeship"? The value of this work is embedded in the way it offers different--local and international--perspectives and understandings of how we relate to the politics of rest, negotiate institutional and intimate care, and imagine varieties of care systems and healing strategies within a local setting. The intent is not necessarily to offer one solution to the larger inquiry but to allow a plurality of voices and contributions to be heard, expressed and remembered.Contributors include: Andrea Knezovic, Angeliki Tzortzakaki, Angels Miralda, Katia Krupnikova, Katja Praznik, Laura Mrksa & Sepp Eckenhaussen, Meghana Karnik, Rita Ouedraogo, Silvio Lorusso, Tia Cicek, Titus Nouwens, Eloise Vo.

    Created by students, for students, Design History Reader espouses a pluralistic, communal approach to tackling design issues The goal of this collaborative, enthusiastic textbook on design history is to create a resource offering a diverse, inclusive view of graphic design history, specifically articulated through the student voice. Design History Reader was led by Kristen Coogan, Associate Professor of Art and Graphic Design at Boston University, who applies the department's pluralistic approach to the topic. The case studies featured in this book are real-life examples from her students that demonstrate the practical, ubiquitous applications of design theory. They began as a curricular revision and evolved into a new form of design history pedagogy. Already a part of Boston University's graphic design curriculum, this student-focused reader is an excellent choice for course adoption, or for the bookshelf of an independent aspiring designer.Contributors include: Annabella Pugliese, Belle Bennet, Charles Li, Dar Saravia, Ellen Johnson, Flora Kerner, Grace Chong, Haya AlMajali, Julia Cheung, Kristina Shumilina, Lauren Had, Leila Garner, Maidha Salman, Natalie Seitz, Rayne Schulman, Rhea Jauhar, Rashina Wang, Sheryl Peng, Sophie Zimbler, Tzu-Hsuan Huang, Winnie Mei, Xiuqi Ran, Yue Luo.

    Ten artists offer new considerations for grieving in the digital ageIn the digital era, the experience of death and grief is the opposite of that of centuries past: saturated with information, yet devoid of rituality. With this influx of media and "content," is it possible that some form of visual culture could cut through the noise in order to reconcile human beings with death? Death Design Data unites 10 contemporary artists and designers to explore how different creative practices can produce new, innovative rituals surrounding death and loss, and how they affect us. The experiences, memories and invocations shared on these pages invite us to reconsider our mortality and the vessels that we use to navigate life and death.Contributors include: MAalex, Thomas Walskaar, Camille Wiesel, Studio GISTO & Goga Mason, Perrine De Donato, Susanne Duijvestein, Lorenzo Montinaro, Mourning School.

    An artist's rigorous examination of the historical and future significance of a hallucinogenic member of the nightshade familyThe mandragora plant, commonly known as the mandrake, is one of the best-recorded gynecological herbal substances. It is also the only plant in the European context historically depicted as half human and half plant. In the richly illustrated Three Becomes Two Becomes One Becomes None, the Swiss artist Leonie Brandner (born 1992) explores the medicinal and magical properties of the plant, moving from the beginning of recorded storytelling to ancient Egyptian and Greek mythology and the many other stories that have grown around mandragora throughout history. Joining rigorous historical research with her own perception and encounters, she traces mandragora through medicinal tomes and folklore, eventually arriving at the impact the plant had during the witch hunts of the Middle Ages. Could the mandragora's many stories hold the potential for new orders and world-making? Brandner creates a dazzling kaleidoscopic image of human-plant imaginations across time.

    In her research, Pinaka uses the term porno-graphing to group together and examine lens-based artworks where artists use material sexual situations or sets of sexual dynamics present in their lives and independent of their practices, to make art. Pinaka considers how artists act upon these sexual situations, the art-results they produce, and their means of sharing them with an audience. These situations and dynamics share commonalities as they can be regarded as 'taboo' or 'transgressive'; also, in that artists use them to underline the 'dirtiness' or 'wrongness' of their sexual and artistic subjectivities. For example, Kathy Acker with Alan Sondheim, after recognising the sexual dynamic between them as work-material, they act upon it to make art (instead of treating it as private enjoyment) and to do so they self-objectify into certain roles. In the Blue Tape, discussions of art, romantic love and phenomenology are talked-through video sequences of sexual stimulation and negation as a way of deliberating and reorganizing meaning and value. Pinaka argues that in porno-graphing, artists negotiate how subjectivity, and its value, is produced by self-submitting into the 'dirtiness' of sexual and artistic positions. To approach the 'dirtiness' of these works as well as their processes, Pinaka uses, amongst other theories and strategies, the notion of 'queer negativity'. AnnaMaria Pinaka was educated as a video artist, and developed her thesis in the department of Theatre, Drama and Performance at Roehampton University. Her research is practice-based; it involves creative work in performance and image-making alongside theoretical reflection derived from gender studies, queer theory and visual studies. Broadly speaking, Pinaka's focus is sexualised representation, and the development of a visual language that borrows in part from the rhetorics of pornography, but which also relates to the visual arts that focus on the intimacy of private life, the lived ordinary, the ecstasies of the everyday, lack of spectacularisation and the aesthetics of banality.

    The networked image is a slice of network production that is emblematic of the current image economy. As a hub within a techno-social infrastructure it manages the network as a directive tool. This is a result of its existence within a production protocol that is programmed by technologies such as web applications, digital cameras and smartphone apps. Since networked images are part of a specific software, they are marked by software proper- ties, which enables them to be transformed into scripts or protocol. Image management discusses a move from images as representation, to the application of images as productive networked objects. It is about the role of the image as mediator between technological and social protocols.

    We design for life, death and posterity, all together - while understanding who and/or what is permissible to kill or let die. We try to understand why water is a false dragon and how it gives and takes life. We are encouraged to do some push-ups. We rearrange things made of more things, we steal them and we question their economic value, trying to make sense of it in the process. We dance Kumbia and listen to the earth with the people who work under and on it.

    If you walk into the book shop, through the large open gallery space and past the kitchen, through the unsettling mirrored door frame, into the Riso-workshop, past the ink- drums, drying racks and narrow wooden staircase, you will see two doors. On them is written 'staff only'. Go through those doors and there is the warehouse of Onomatopee; high and full, with racks and racks full of books. This publication started with a warehouse full of books, which turned into an exhibition, and then turned back into printed matter. Anything can be an archive. Its definition is mutable and open for interpretation and hard to define, as it is used in various ways depending on context. One definition is: a collection of documents created or gathered by one person or institution and selected for long-term preservation as evidence of their activities. We extended an open invitation to artists, writers, publishers, graphic designers and poets to write about these themes from their own perspective and expertise. The contributions range from A Warburgian Constellation by Leonie Harkes to the gossipy poetics of unpublished/unpublishable photobook reviews by S*an D. Henry-Smith. There are compact essays on the design, form and feeling of three of Onomatopee's publications by Formal Settings, the authors of Notes on Book Design (2023), as well as Ambient Reading, A Method by Sal Randolph. Mia You has contributed A List of Prepositions as Propositions, to which Romy Day Winkel has responded by applying an erasure poetry writing method to fifty silk bookmarks. Natasha Rijkhoff contributed notes on Unstable archiving and Jesse Muller writes about archives and drawings in her text 'Sometimes I ask my brother to make me a drawing.' The publication has been designed and put together by Tjobo Kho. As we navigate through the pages of this publication, it becomes evident that the book and the archive are no rigid entities with clear boundaries; they are malleable objects and concepts, shaped by interpretation and their social and material context. They emerge as living organisms, adapting to the changing currents of the people moving alongside them: a testament to both curatorship and chance, design and chaos. This publication celebrates this unruliness that comes with amassing and assembling a publishing practice.

    The Rondom project includes an exhibition and a publication with contributions in the light of the exchange and overlap between linguistic context and visual image. Artists who see textual discourse as their working terrain and subject matter are matched with policymakers ; critics and theorists whose role is not usually visible in the actual art product. The core question is where artistic space is located and whether artistic ; visual strength can withstand far-reaching social embedding and instrumentalization.
