Contents

The module aims to search for a newly formed structure of visual content using a book medium.

The premise of the realization of the book is beyond the reach of classical book production, perceived as a stable source of material media, or its mere transfer to online space. The course should predominantly lead to a nonlinear presentation of the book form with emphasis on the procedural creation of the work. Part of the topic is to find the importance of a hybrid form of book media remediation and its new possibilities of reorganization and selection of image links. The motivation is to examine the perspective of changing the cultural status of the book and its anchoring in the context of the social structure of communities. Through the reflection of individual works, we will find individual selected methods of experiment, aimed at a new interpretive form of the visual book.

Learning outcomes

Any book form realized by nonlinear output method and presentation possibilities

books in space.

Prerequisites and other requirements

Work in an unconventional way and search for different strategies for the implementation of visual book production and new possibilities for the distribution of its content. Engage and represent your own

attitude and work with an open range of approaches.
