Klappentext
STEIDL-WERK No. 31: GHOSTS IN THE MACHINE is Theseus Chan and Gerhard Steidl's latest adventure in redefining what constitutes a book. The normal starting-point for any book is blank sheets of paper, yet for STEIDL-WERK No. 31 that is not the case. Instead, Chan and Steidl have taken already printed "make-ready" sheets from a recent Steidl book-the sheets produced on press while the printing plates build up the right levels of ink to deliver optimal results. Each make-ready sheet shows a different collection of inks and they are normally discarded; here they are the very heart of the book. On top of these sheets (fed into the press in a random order) is printed a new series of Chan's ink drawings-shifting, bleeding, abstract forms or "ghosts," which interact with the underlying images and texts in unpredictable ways. The result is an experiment with technical and optical accidents; each book in the edition, like Chan's drawings, is unique. Presented in a cardboard box with ten posters, ten postcards and a zine, as well as a copy of Steidl Magazine No. 7 edited by Chan, STEIDL-WERK No. 31 is a treasure trove of offset innovation.Limited edition of 500
