Time Based Editions
Time Based Editions – a series of books binding print to time, merging sound with paper.
Each book is a unique work by a different artist / group.
An audio track combines narration, soundscape, and instructions that guide you over a given time through a book.
Audio and visual are separate elements here, held together in the present through a physical participation; turning, flicking and comparing pages, diving into a here-and-now of the page. See a demo video here.
This liveness can be amplified when experienced together as a group. Time Based Editions are also presented as events for audiences; collective and synchronized engagements with the book in theaters, museums, and site specific locations.
The first book in the series is Borderline Visible, by Ant Hampton.
The second book in the series, ADE DEA: a cover version by LOG (Ulla & Perila).
