A Time and Place

Meer over het boek

ARC.DE describes a fascinating balancing act between the analogue and digital worlds, performed by Christian Muller, a trained architect operating as an experimental creative force. A lavishly illustrated report on the extensive body of work output by Muller between 1991 and 2002, this monograph mixes book and internet pages, allowing printed matter and time-based elements to link up and form a whole that embraces both media, consistently and with little redundancy. Cleverly designed alongside an elaborate new media equivalent available only on the internet, ARC.DE asks to be read in front of an on-line computer, so that the texts, drawings, and photographs that appear in the book can form a meaningful complement to the digitized sequences of image and sound posted on the web.
