This is not a Gardening Book | Wander M. van Baalen, Jana Thierfelder, Patrick Müller (eds.) [E-Book PDF]
The cultivation of transdisciplinary practices. A work by many
This is not a Gardening Book collects essays and glossary entries that open new pathways for doing more-than-disciplinary educational work. The contributors to this volume – students, scholars, and artists from a diverse range of intellectual and disciplinary backgrounds – explore the transformative potential of education that does not stop at disciplinary and institutional borders. The book is meant to be taken up as a “tool to think with”. May it serve as a catalyst for thinking about and experimenting with new modalities of transdisciplinary teaching and learning.

Aisthetik der Müdigkeit | Fabian Goppelsröder [E-Book PDF]
In einer Zeit, in der Aktivität und Leistung alles bedeuten, da power naps und polyphasischer Schlaf die Nachtruhe optimieren sollen, Klartraumtechniken Ressourcen zur Verbesserung körperlicher und geistiger Effizienz kolonisieren, lässt sich – so scheint es – für die Müdigkeit kaum noch argumentieren. Das Sensorium für ihre Fülle ist durch all den Optimierungsdruck verkümmert. Der Imperativ des 24/7 hat es anästhesiert. Dabei geht es heute, so der Ansatz des vorliegenden Buches, mehr denn je darum, ihre besondere Aisthetik wiederzuentdecken, den Sinn für die ihr eigenen Zwischenzustände des Ungeformten und Nichtkategorisierbaren zu wecken.
Where does the wind go when it is not blowing? With The Wind Tunnel Model, artist and scientist Florian Dombois proposes new forms of interaction between art and science. Key to this project is Dombois’s wind tunnel laboratory at Zurich University of the Arts. With an empty test platform, the laboratory is a compelling example of architecture that turns its back on its occupants, forming an invisible, yet disturbingly concrete, secondary model.

Texturing Space. Towards an Exponential Cartography | Amélie Brisson-Darveau, Christoph Brunner (eds.)
CHF 25.90
Texture weaves and relates. It moves through things, holding them together, providing contours, shaping forms. This publication is an experimental and collaborative exploration of texture from an artistic, design and conceptual angle. Based on a year-long research process between Zürich and Hong Kong the book seeks to give an account of processes of texturing as practice and material effect in urban environments.
