InhalteAlthough society is undergoing a transition from the physical to the digital, the printed book still enjoys great popularity in the arts. The interdisciplinary workshop will approach the medium book and questions of publishing in different ways. Typological questions (functionality, task, impression, use, communication) will be discussed as well as practical (how is a book structured, how is it created) and analytical (how can its concept be expanded, etc.).
