Contemporary Condition - Dexter Sinister. Notes on the Type, Time, Letters & Spirits (Paperback)

Paperback. Three interconnected palimpsest essays recount (1) the backstory of a "meta" font recently updated by Dexter Sinister and used to typeset the Contemporary Condition book series, (2) a broad history of the rationalization of letterforms that considers the same typeface from "a higher point of disinterest," and (3) a pending proposal for a sundial designed to operate in parallel physical and digital realms. Along the way they contemplate the ambiguous nature of our shared idea of *time* itself.The Contemporary Condition series edited by Geoff Cox and Jacob Lund, Volume 06Copublished with Aarhus University and ARoS Art Museum Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
