Project:
Book design for 'River of Shadows' by Rebecca Solnit. High-end print edition and electronic edition.
Description:
The course will focus on research, strategies and processes for the concept and design of Rebecca Solnit's
recent book River of Shadows. The book is a cultural history of technological change in the second half of
the nineteenth century as told through the life of Eadweard Muybridge. The electronic edition should
expand on the original text in three ways:
Extensive linking from the text out onto the broader net,
Access to motion imagery where appropriate, and
A powerful social component enabling readers to communicate with each other in the margins.
