Konst & Teknik presents a lecture with Jonathan Puckey and release of the publication ‘Trace a Face’.
‘I attended a lecture by Karel Martens in 2005. He was talking about how much his work is based on the limitations of printing techniques such as letterpress and litho. I felt very jealous, because my computer doesn’t have any limits. Being able to produce anything feels like a heavy weight on my shoulders. Every single decision becomes so full of meaning; I could have done it in thousands of other ways. Tools are able to create a little world of logic that break up all these decisions into larger pieces. You’ve already solved a number of problems by creating the tool and now you’re left to spend more attention on performing the design.’ Jonathan Puckey is a graphic designer and programmer based in Amsterdam. Jonathan uses programming as a important part of his design process and instead of relying on already existing tools, he creates his own. Jonathan will give a lecture on his work and talk about his attitude towards graphic design. Konst & Teknik has invited fellow artists and designers to create an image using Jonathans ‘Delauney Raster’ tool. The result is collected in the publication ‘Trace a Face’, for sale during the evening (and later online at www.konst-teknik.se). Contributers in the publication are 1:2:3, Europa, Fageta, Florian Ludwig, Harm van den Dorpel, Kristina Brusa, Laurenz Brunner, Martijn Hendriks, Martin Ström, NODE Berlin Oslo, Ola Persson, Stefan Narancic and Åbäke. ‘Trace a Face’ is the first in a series of collaborative projects initated by Konst & Teknik under the name ‘&’.

Konst & Teknik presenterar en föreläsning med Jonathan Puckey samt release av publikationen ’Trace a Face’.
‘I attended a lecture by Karel Martens in 2005. He was talking about how much his work is based on the
limitations of printing techniques such as letterpress and litho. I
felt very jealous, because my computer doesn’t have any limits. Being able to produce anything feels
like a heavy weight on my shoulders. Every single decision becomes so full of meaning; I could have done
it in thousands of other ways. Tools are able to create a little world of logic that break up all
these decisions into larger pieces. You’ve already solved a number of problems by creating the
tool and now you’re left to spend more attention on performing the design.’
I samband med Jonathans besök har Konst & Teknik bjudit in ett antal formgivare och konstnärer att använda sig av Jonathans verktyg ’The Delauney Raster’. Resultatet har samlats i publikationen ’Trace a Face’ som kommer säljas under kvällen (och senare på www.konst-teknik.se). Medverkande i Trace a Face är 1:2:3, Europa, Fageta, Florian Ludwig, Harm van den Dorpel, Kristina Brusa, Laurenz Brunner, Martijn Hendriks, Martin Ström, NODE Berlin Oslo, Ola Persson, Stefan Narancic och Åbäke. Publikationen är den första i en serie samarbetsprojekt initierade av Konst & Teknik under namnet ’&’.
