Sunday / The Banda Journal
Project by Jordan Marzuki
Jordan on Instagram: “I am proud to announce the 3rd book published by Jordan, jordan Édition, a photo book entitled ‘The Banda Journal’ by Muhammad Fadli & Fatris MF–designed by yours truly and Laras Koesoemo; The Banda Journal highlights the legacy of centuries-long colonization and exploitation in the remote Indonesian Banda Islands. An archipelago comprises of twelve small islands surrounded by vast sea, Banda was the setting of some earliest European ventures in Asia and played a key role in global economic history. It is because Banda was once the world’s only source of the highly prized nutmeg, an aromatic spice functioned as preservative and believed as cure for various illnesses in the Middle Ages. The race for the valuable spices sent the Portuguese navigating the Cape of Good Hope, led Christopher Columbus’ discovery of America, and saw the birth of the world’s first multinational trading company: the Dutch East India Company. In Banda, like in many other places, the spice race resulted in the islanders’ misery. And these days, Banda Islands is nothing more than just a backwater. From 2014 to 2017, photographer Muhammad Fadli and writer Fatris MF documented stories from the Banda Islands through a repeated visits and stays. The result is a book filled with photographs combined with writing, hoping to give an insightful view from various facets of life on the islands, its past and its present state. Book is now available to purchase at www.jordanjordan.co (link in bio)

MONDAY / Motors
Project by Hellome Studio
HelloMe® on Instagram: “HM-001-027, Motors, Louis De Belle, METER
@meterbooks.co publishes books and editions exploring the contours of contemporary culture. Embracing the book as a primary mode of cultural expression, METER engages with relevant voices in contemporary discourse to produce printed objects of experimental form, essential quality, and cultural significance.
METER’s inaugural publication ‘Motors’ by Italian photographer @louisdebelle documents resting boat engines set against the nightly darkness of the canals of Venice. Paired with a distinctive collection of boat names, ‘Motors’ shifts the focus from the city’s celebrated iconography towards the often overlooked driving forces underlying the floating city. Draped in repurposed textiles commonly found in Venetian households, ‘Motors’ renders the dirty boat engines as soft and abstract sculptures. In the increasingly fragile fossil fuel era, De Belle’s images complicate the city’s enduring romanticism while quietly pointing towards its uncertain future.
‘Motors’ is available from www.meterbooks.co

Project by Ferran Bretcha
Ferran Bretcha on Instagram: “PHASE 1 - 102 PROCESSING: 100.000 WORDS A DAY If in case of boredom or waiting periods of time, you usually look at Instagram, Whatsapp, or any other application on your mobile phone, with this new book you will get a similar experience, but instead of checking personal messages, you will be able to read complex, scientific and analytical texts. In order to facilitate the processing of complex information, the visual layout of the page will look like the familiar/known social media design. In the digital era, we read more than ever but in a different way.
