Add to basketCondition: sehr guter Zustand. F. sehr guter Zustand, geringe Gebrauchs- und Alterungsspuren: auf den letzten beiden Seiten ist ein Verzeichnis der erschienenen Bände dieser Reihe, darin sind zahlreiche Bände angekreuzt - sonst Seiten sauber und ordentlich Teure Wegwerfraketen Die Entwicklung der Kosmonautik in den ersten beiden… Jahrzehnten seit Sputnik 1 ist durch folgende Tatsachen gekennzeichnet: Die Anzahl der gestarteten Raumflugkörper stieg von zwei im Jahre 1957 auf 158 im Jahre 1967, also auf das 80fache im ersten Jahrzehnt. Seitdem ist die jährliche Startfolge, insgesamt gesehen, etwa konstant geblieben. Allerdings gingen die Aktivitäten der USA von 74 im Jahre 1966 auf 24 im Jahre 1976 zurück, während die der UdSSR im gleichen Zeitraum von 42 auf 121 anstiegen. Allein in den ersten zehn Monaten des Jahres 1978 startete die Sowjetunion 93 Raumflugkörper, viermal soviel, wie die Vereinigten Staaten von Nordamerika für das ganze Jahr vorgesehen hatten. Die Nutzlastkapazität der Trägerraketen erhöhte sich in den vergangenen zwei Jahrzehnten von knapp 100 kg auf fast 100000 kg, also auf das 1000fache. Der am 4. Oktober 1957 gestartete Sputnik 1 entsprach mit einer Masse von 83,6 kg dem Gewicht eines ausgewachsenen Mannes, die Skylab-Station, die am 14. Mai 1973 ihre Umlaufbahn erreichte, hatte eine Masse von 85 000 kg, was fast genau der Abflugmasse eines Verkehrsflugzeugs vom Typ Convair 990 gleichkommt. Die Transportkosten für 1 kg Weltraum-Nutzlast auf mittleren Erdumlaufbahnen sanken in den letzten 20 Jahren von etwa 200 000 Dollar auf rund 2 000 Dollar, also auf ein Hundertstel . Die hohen Kosten für die bisher gestarteten Nutzlasten kamen dadurch zustande, daß ausschließlich Wegwerfraketen verwendet wurden. Das sind Trägerraketensysteme, die nur einmal zum Einsatz kommen. Danach stürzen sie zur Erde zurück, wobei sie verglühen. Viele von ihnen kreisen als leergebrannte Wracks lange Zeit im Orbit. Würden Luftfahrtgesellschaften ebenso verfahren, dann müßten sie jeden Jumbo-Jet nach einem Atlantikflug aufgeben und die Passagiere an Fallschirmen landen lassen. Moderne Verkehrsmaschinen haben heute jedoch eine durchschnittliche Betriebsdauer von 30000 Stunden, was etwa 3 000 interkontinentalen Flügen entspricht. Buchreihe: Akzent, Band 38 Seitenanzahl: 128 Seiten mit zahlreichen Bildern Format: ca. 11 x 18 kartoniert Deutsch. Klaus Thieme (illustrator).

An extensive run of this extremely rare privately printed art journal in its deluxe editions. The print run of the present issues, each containing original prints, ranges from 30 to 100 copies (the total edition, including an unillustrated text edition, ranging from 100 to 200 copies). The curator Klaus Hoffmann succeeded in attracting some of the most prominent West German artists of the 1960s to contribute to this small exclusive journal. Of particular note is the contribution by Frieder Nake, who, only one year after his first exhibition with Georg Nees in Stuttgart, provided an original plotter drawing for Issue 18. Nake was a mathematician and student of Max Bense in Stuttgart. Together with Michael Noll and Georg Nees, he was one of three pioneers of the so-called Group 3N. They were among the first to use computers and graphomats to create graphics. Nake had completed his doctorate on probability theory and was a research assistant at the computer center of the Technical University in Stuttgart for many years. For him, graphics was above all a method of mathematical research. His works represent experiments in which he attempted to replace the artist's creativity or intuition with random numbers, which ultimately are not random but rather probabilities defined by Nake. This principle is illustrated, for example, by his work "Hommage à Paul Klee" (1965), in which the computer generates images that resemble those of Paul Klee. However, these images are not reproductions of existing works by Klee. Nake defined individual pictorial elements as parameters, which were then distributed across the image plane by the computer in a calculated number and arrangement. As a member of the Stuttgart School, he was among the pioneers within Bense's circle who contributed to the establishment of computer art. He participated in all of the major exhibitions of the period, including Cybernetic Serendipity (London, 1968), Computerkunst: On the Eve of Tomorrow (Hanover, 1969), Tendencije 4 (Zagreb, 1968), and the Venice Biennale (special exhibition, Venice, 1970). He ended his active work as a computer artist as early as 1972. (D. Becker, AKL XCI, 2016, p. 481). It is noteworthy that Nake contributed to the present issue not only one of the numbered and signed plotter drawings but also a text in which he explains his approach in unusually accessible language addressed to artists. The very first sentence is a provocation in the tradition of Bauhaus industrial design, ultimately culminating in an apology for the coming "AI art": "I often (almost always) find synthetically manufactured materials more beautiful than old ones that are somehow cobbled together by hand. In any case, they are cheaper. I do not see why it should not one day be possible for pictures produced artificially (that is, by machines) to be more beautiful (whatever that may mean) than those produced 'naturally.' (.) I can imagine that a comparison will one day be drawn with the invention of the mechanical loom and the weavers' uprisings." Nake identifies two opposing poles at work in the computer-generated art of the future: the chance element of "Action Painting" and the "coolest (.) scientific planning of image production." He further predicts that "subjectivism in art will largely disappear." He goes on to argue that images are "consumer goods (.) like toilet paper, shoe heels, underwear, books (.)." Nake also already has a conception of what will become of artists: "those who today do what machines will then do will simply do something else, if they are able to do something else (.)." (transl. after Pe 18, pp. 31-32) "Pe", however, was not a journal devoted to computer art. Rather, the common thread running through the journal was Klaus Hoffmann's theory of the "New Ornamentation" (Neue Ornamentik), which brought together highly divergent artistic positions under a single aspect. As Hoffmann writes in his monograph of the same title: "The essence of ornamentality is that it is encountered simultaneously in different movements - in scriptural painting, Pop Art, Optical Art, Post Painterly Abstraction, and so forth." In advancing this concept, Hoffmann participated in a broader debate over a new understanding of modernism that sought to move beyond the discipline's self-definit.
