»the art of typewriting« by ruth & marvin sackner, steven heller

this book mines the collection of the sackner archive of visual and concrete poetry, the largest such collection in the world.

each cover displays a unique combination of two artworks. this was achieved through the creation of a custom algorithm that processes the data that is fed to the hp indigo 10000 digital press.

internally, the book is divided into three main sections: an introduction to the history of the typewriter and its art; an expansive plate section showing key works and a dense reference section featuring biographies of the genre’s most influential artists and writers.

i’m very glad, that one of my typewriter poems is featured in this beautiful book!

»typewriter art: a modern anthology« edited by barrie tullett

this beautiful book brings together some of the best examples by typewriter artists around the world. as well as key historical work from the bauhaus, h. n. werkman and the concrete poets, there is art by contemporary practitioners, both typewriter artists who use the keyboard as a ‘palette’ to create artworks, and artists/typographers using the form as a compositional device. the book will appeal to graphic designers, typographers, artists and illustrators, and anyone fascinated by predigital technology.

i totally love this book, therefore a huge recommendation from my side!
