The Infinite Library

The Infinite Library is an ongoing project by Daniel Gustav Cramer and Haris Epaminonda. The archive is a set of artist books made from found printed matter and re-bound. The Infinite Catalogue is really nice to click through. And from their site it seems the books are exhibited often.

Reading by Candlelight

Reading by Candlelight details some of my favorite self-published books.

Photo Album is a photography softback, digital offset printed and published by Daniel Hipolito this year. The book is filed with interiors and landscapes. Many are people-less, giving the book a post-’Aliens have made contact and sent us to a better place’ feeling. Laid out in a horizontal flip manner without borders, the photographs run over the edge with space. The minimalist shots are rich in detail. Warm and cool tones drip with analogue graininess devoid of any software touch up. A lamp is turned on, windows are closed when it’s sunny, an ugly chandelier strung too high, the word “trophies” written on several moving boxes, and not everything is in focus either. Turning the pages of someone else’s interiors by candlelight feels right.

Daniel is a visual artist and musician living in Austin Texas and I really love his book. Visit his webs:
