Karl Nawrot: Mind Walks available at actualsource.org Karl Nawrot is a graphic designer whose work has a pronounced architectural sensibility. His oeuvre includes typography, illustration, and abstract graphic compositions, and he uses techniques usually associated with architectural processes to create letterforms drawn using various media. Mind Walks compiles more than 900 images of Nawrot’s selected works from between 2004 and 2017. Edited and designed by him, and with a text by James Langdon, the book is a fascinating compendium of plastic expression through various materials. Whether formed in pencil, ink, foam board, card stock, or metal, his creations are the typographic equivalent of an architectural model. 496 pages, 17 x 24 cm, paperback, Rollo Press (Zurich).

The 3rd edition of @nike + Actual Source’s highly sought-after paperback “No Finish Line” is now available again. “No Finish Line” is @nike’s design vision for the next 50 years.

With a foreword by Nike’s Chief Design Officer and speculative fictions by @geoffmanaugh, the book features essays by @grawesome (author, “Nike: Better is Temporary”) describing five major shifts design may undergo in the coming decades as it evolves from product to platform, performance to promise, elite to everyone, sustainable to symbiotic, and static to sensorial. - Specifications: 192 Pages Paperback Designed by @zakgroupoffice Illustrations by @braulioamado Published by ACTUAL SOURCE books ISBN: 979-8-9872648-0-5 Music by @mooninite__ Available at @antennebooks for UK and all of Europe!

Hand For Scale available at actualsource.org Hand for Scale ( 2020-present) is an ongoing body of images culled from Google, Twitter, Reddit, IMGur, and other websites. “Manually” retrieved using the search term “Hand for Scale”, the images form a conversation spoken between cameraphone, body, and object. For aeons we’ve been seeing how we measure up to our outer world—the height of a horse, the length of a football pitch, the depth of the sea. Photography bears both the privilege and the burden of its evidentiary history, and we measure, just as we photograph, in the hope to convey, to describe, to translate. We take a selfie to affirm I saw this, I ate that, look at this thing, look at me. The internet, a space fed on and bred for the hyperbolic, kindles our obsession with the tiny or titanic. We marvel at said object, space, or absence and want to share it. We place our hand gingerly in front of the lens, pinch and tap the beveled glass screen, an assertion—and insertion—of oneself as author, photographer made visible. 104 Pages, 5.5 × 7.5 inches
