The work of Emma McNally is another great case of an artistic embracement of Complexity and Systems Theory, resulting in a slow detachment of these domains from their exclusive scientific realm. It’s quite remarkable when this adoption takes the shape of randomized algorithms in Generative Art, but it’s even more astounding when it’s expressed by means of hand-drawn illustrations.

The stunning graphite illustrations of Emma McNally convey a sort of cartographic conjecture, with imaginary planes and connections, intersecting squares, circles and dots. These abstract lines, shapes, and patterns make for some striking textures and resemble classic mappings of cyberspace through nodal connections of imagined networks.

You can see all her drawings on her flickr slideshow.

Typographic Links
BOOK DESIGN

Typographic Links is a hand-sewn book which maps interesting links and connections throughout the world of typography. Red threads are used as three-dimensional ‘hyperlinks’ to guide the reader through the pages.
Created in 2007, it was on display at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York in 2011 as part of the Talk To Me exhibition.

In the final volume of The Matrix, I think we were all impressed with the multitude of Mr. Smith’s (and maybe less impressed with the actual plot of Revolutions). I took the Mr. Smith bit somewhat serious and did the same thing to my hand for a series of illustrations for Cartier Magazine on the theme of the our powerful appendage.

The Destructive Character
Typography — Posters

These posters are based on the im­ages and their de­scrip­tions in the book by Dick Raai­j­mak­ers called The De­struc­tive Char­ac­ter, de­rived from Wal­ter Ben­jamins essay. I typed the image de­scrip­tions and my own ones out, filled out and jus­ti­fied on the paper sheet. Then I tried to make a new sen­tence that re­flects the con­tent of the book and clear away the ex­ist­ing ones. Leav­ing these words vis­i­ble cre­ates a strange story and can only be traced back by in­ter­pret­ing the Roman nu­mer­als.
