TOPIC
New media and the Web influence how we share and convey knowledge.
Even reading patterns in books are changing which contain more
visuals and eclectic information structures. Markuz Wernli Saito will
take the audience through the design process of his just published
book Mirei Shigemori, Modernizing the Japanese Garden and examine how
various parts of contents converge into one coherent publication. The
audience is invited to bring in printed samples, which integrate
image and text to open up the discussion.

Markuz Wernli Saito is a photographer and interdisciplinary artist
from Switzerland working in Kyoto and San Francisco. He is fascinated
by the dialectics of humans and their environment. Focusing on
independent artistic installations and photo assignments for
publications worldwide,
he is a lecturer at Kyoto University of Art and Design.
