The second part of Moving Through Images is a collection of images created by using the Prompt Book, accompanied by text contributions and a visual essay that critically examine topics such as walking, navigation, perception, and media. With its interwoven content across both parts, Moving Through Images invites readers to discover the various connections and correlations between individual fragments and situations. Browsing through the book’s pages is analogous to moving through the streets of a city and vice versa. Texts by Jean Baudrillard, Raphael Besenbäck, Jorge Luis Borges, Guy Debord, David Gallo, Carmen Lael Hines, Nadine Monem. Moving Through Images: Explorations into Visual Reproduction, Perception and Randomness Published by Verlag Bibliothek der Provinz ISBN 978-3-99126-340-1 MTI is available directly from me, the webshop of Bibliothek der Provinz, major online bookselling platforms, or worldwide via selected bookshops.

The Prompt Book is the interactive part of Moving Through Images. It serves as a tool for (potentially aimless) movement and for altering one’s perspective within one’s immediate surroundings. With its experimental and flexible ways of application, it fosters an enhanced awareness of individual perception across both physical and virtual spaces.

You can now order Moving Through Images directly from me (DM for details), via the webshop of Bibliothek der Provinz (link in bio), and other major online bookselling platforms. The two-part publication questions how images and (visual) reproductions of physical surroundings influence our gaze and perception. One part is an interactive Prompt Book designed to explore, thoroughly experience, and actively engage with physical environments. The other part is a collection of images created by using the Prompt Book, accompanied by texts that critically examine topics such as walking, navi­gation, perception, and media. With its interwoven content, MTI addresses questions such as: What are the relationships between what we see and perceive in our physical surroundings and how they are depicted? Is a place perceived differently in its physical form compared to its visual reproductions or simulations?

Over the past few months, I have had the pleasure of working with Lisa Penz and David Gallo on the design and programming of my website. Lisa and David have created a website that is fluid, orientative and playful. It is a space designed to engage curiosity, rather than present immediate means to an end. With innovative approaches to hyperlinking, multi-scaled fonts and shifting colours, it articulates hybridity and interactivity through minimalism. I very much suggest that all take a look at their amazing editorial, design and programming work at the intersection of architecture, design and artistic approaches to creating landscapes across disciplines and media. 🤍🤍🤍🤍 And here is the link to the website!! /about/ Thank you Lisa and David!
