NotesBy Guy Laramee, this idea of a book telling a story is taken to a whole new level of being, by using the book itself to make a sculpture rich in narrative. I’d love to see a more extreme variety of these.
I really want to use this idea of a world contained within a story in my next project.

NotesTraumgedanken
Maria Fischer“The book “Traumgedanken” (‘Thoughts on dreams’) contains a collection of literary, philosophical, psychological and scientific texts which provide an insight into different dream theories.
To ease the access to the elusive topic, the book is designed as a model of a dream about dreaming. Analogue to a dream, where pieces of reality are assembled to build a story, it brings different text excerpts together. They are connected by threads which tie in with certain key words. The threads visualise the confusion and fragility of dreams.
On five pages there are illustrations made out of thread. Their shape and color relies on the key words on the opposite page. This way an abstract image of the dream about dreaming is generated.
In addition there are five pages where a significant excerpt from a text of the opposite page is stitched into the paper. It is not legible because the type’s actual surface is inside the folded page. This expresses the mysteriousness of dreams and the aspect of dream interpretation.”
