Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

In an age of computer-driven word processing--Microsoft Word, Google Docs--the works here make for an especially prescient presentation. Time, energy, and struggle are evident in many of the pieces shown in The Art of Typewriting., Creating art with a typewriter--a seemingly limited machine--was both an exercise in mind-boggling ingenuity and an acceptance of restrictions that seem out of joint with our era of Koonsian scale and Abramovican ego. With more than five hundred illustrations, THE ART OF TYPEWRITING offers a sample of the quarter-million items in the Sackner Archive of Concrete and Visual Poetry in Miami--said to be the largest extant repository of such material--preceded by brief, illuminating histories of typewriter art and ornamentation., Creating art with a typewriter--a seemingly limited machine--was both an exercise in mind-boggling ingenuity and an acceptance of restrictions that seem out of joint with our era of Koonsian scale and Abramovicían ego. With more than five hundred illustrations, THE ART OF TYPEWRITING offers a sample of the quarter-million items in the Sackner Archive of Concrete and Visual Poetry in Miami--said to be the largest extant repository of such material--preceded by brief, illuminating histories of typewriter art and ornamentation., This is an undeniably rich and plentiful repository of creativity....There's much to explore here for art historians, poets, linguists, book artists, and those simply curious about the multiplicity of ways that text can take on fascinating forms., The Art of Typewriting destabilizes linear communication as words become objects and shared languages fragment... In the age of Microsoft Word, the typewriter has a nostalgic appeal, yet these works appear to exist outside time and place... The Sackners don't arrange the works geographically, chronologically or by artist but rather thematically: 'alphabetical texts,' 'texts of varying densities,' 'meandering texts and labyrinths.' The effect is a subtle, Zen-like respite from meaning, a calm in the midst of our communicative storm.

Synopsis
The first definitive overview of typewriter art in decades--with a unique algorithm giving each volume its own cover design, 'I Am TOM. I Like to TYPE. Hear that?' So wrote actor Tom Hanks recently, describing his love of the typewriter. The beloved typewriter - its utilitarian beauty, the pleasing percussive action of striking its keys, the singularity of the impressed page - is enjoying a renaissance across the creative industries. In this authoritative book, the authors apply their experience to mine the collection they have created over four decades to present over 550 examples produced by more than sixty of the world's finest contributors to the genre. From the early ornamental works produced by secretaries in the late nineteenth century to more recent works that consider the uniqueness of the typewritten document in the digital age, there is an astonishing - and delightful - range of creativity in every artwork. The book features three main sections: an introduction to the history of the typewriter and its art; an expansive plate section showing key works, rendered in exquisite detail; and a reference section featuring biographies of the most influential artists and writers. Designed by top graphic design studio and typewriter aficionados Graphic Thought Facility, this is a once-in-a-generation publication, carefully curated through decades of first-hand experience to inspire a new wave of designers and artists for the future. Each cover displays a unique combination of two artworks. This was achieved through the creation of a custom algorithm that processes the data that is fed to the HP Indigo 10000 Digital Press., In this authoritative publication, the founders of the Sackner Archive of Visual and Concrete Poetry, the largest such collection in the world, apply their experience, mining the collection they have created over four decades to present examples produced by more than 200 of the world's finest typewriter artists. From the early ornamental works produced by secretaries in the late nineteenth century to more recent works that consider the unique position of the typewritten document in the digital age, there is an astonishing and delightful range of creativity in every artwork. The Art of Typewriting features three main sections: an introduction to the history of the typewriter and its art; an expansive plate section showing key works rendered in exquisite detail; and a reference section featuring biographies of the genre's most influential artists and writers. The book's layout has been created by London's leading graphic design studio, Graphic Thought Facility, and each book has a cover with a unique combination of front and back image, meaning no two books are the same., The beloved typewriter--its utilitarian beauty, the pleasing percussive action of striking its keys, the singularity of the impressed page--is enjoying a genuine renaissance across the creative industries.

- b***r (58)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufWas in pretty rough condition since it was covered in library tags, so I was disappointed about that. I peeled them off so any damage is my fault. I’m buying the bulk of my collection second hand so that’s something that happens but I wish I would have known ahead of time. All in all I’m happy with the low price.
