Koen Taselaar. Rollable Ramblings

2021 || Paperback || Katalin Herzog || Jap Sam Books

The work of Koen Taselaar is a unique universe in which only he determines the rules. He makes skillful drawings, but also clumsy ceramics and elaborate Tapestries.

Taselaar’s visual language emerged from the grey area in which text is not only meaning but also form. He expresses this in drawn puns, imaginary record sleeves or large psychedelic paintings. In search of ways to process his diverse output, he makes publications and large scale drawings, which function as flat exhibition space...

111 INCEPTION

2022 || Paperback || Anna Bates || Jap Sam Books

What is inspiration? What inspires you? 111 INCEPTION is a chain of inspiration, which involves 111 architects from around the world.

This book was not guided by theory, yet it grew out of a search for new ways to look at authorship, ideas and inspiration. The experimental and playful character of the project itself, with its unpredictable outcomes, allowed for a much needed change of perspective—away from the traditional approach to creation characteristic of modernity and towards inspirat...

Footprint 28

ALL IS IN FORMATION. ARCHITECTURE, CYBERNETICS, ECOLOGY

2021 || Paperback || Stavros Kousoulas e.a. || Jap Sam Books

Therefore, cyberneticisation can set the foundations for a relational account that examines how signs are communicated and how meaning is produced and experienced within systems. This third-order cybernetics extends beyond the original scope of living organisms and their environments in order to ...
