Futurosity
Futurosity
In 2015/2016, Kunstblock — a collaboration of the art institutions in the Rotterdam Art Quarter — invited Douglas Coupland to reflect on the notion of “future” and investigate ideas and perspectives for the “unknown.” The publication accompanied the two-day Futurosity-Summit which marks the conclusion of this year-long program.
The main text is set in PX Grotesk. For page numbers, pagination, and all vowels in the headlines, it is combined with glyphs that borrow from the structure and lookalike of MICR figures formerly used to encode information.
