We sourced Joseph Michael Essex's primer on typography as a foreword, and used metallic and dimensional foils to create different layers and depths to recall the ultra-sensory and cerebral experience of the opening reception.
The content is arranged to mimic an infinite vertical scroll, a rigorously curated wall of composed images. The book invites readers to treat it as they might a device, manipulating and re-orienting it in their hands to absorb one bite-size bit of imagery or text after the next, each one compelling on its own but, as a collection, becoming something else entirely. Together they are a whole, a single organism, a lasting, tangible record of a night full of noise, color and community joined in celebration.
