Currently reading (Kiara)
La Maison des Feuilles (House of Leaves)
Mark Z. Danielewski
Monsieur Toussaint Louverture éd., 2023 (first published in 2000)
736 pages
Originally written in English, available in French
Genre: Novel, Metafiction
Summary: The novel begins with the introduction of Johnny Truant, a young man who discovers a manuscript written by a deceased elderly man named Zampanò. The manuscript, titled “The Navidson Record”, recounts the experiences of the Navidson family, who move into a seemingly ordinary house that starts to exhibit bizarre and supernatural phenomena. As they explore the house’s mysteries, they uncover a seemingly endless and constantly changing labyrinth within its walls. (source)
Additional info:
- Trigger warnings: unconventional writing and layout (mindfucking, see pictures), mention of dementia, (sexual) assault, death
- There is a person who developed a Doom II mod in 2022 to depict the house, its maze and organic structure, the video is 1h42 of pure madness and amazement. If the book seems too much, I definitely recommend this video (TW: closed spaces, fire, dark spaces -- there is a disclaimer at the beginning of the video)

À la poursuite du livre rêvé par Jean Giono & Maximilien Vox

French only
Genre: Archive, Research
Summary (in french obv): En 1954, l'écrivain Jean Giono et le typographe et éditeur Maximilien Vox rêvaient de fusionner toutes les potentialités expressives de la littérature et de la typographie dans un livre dont le titre aurait été Mort de Gutenberg.
Aujourd'hui les pistes de recherche ouvertes par ce projet non abouti, devenu texte d'archive, se prolongent à travers la parole de chercheurs, d'auteurs, de créateurs de caractères et d'éditeurs.
Qu'est-ce que l'image d'un texte ? Quelle est la place de la lettre dans le processus de lecture ? Quelle part revient à la création graphique en littérature ? Le numérique permet-il d'autres formes de collaborations créatives ?
Un livre qui en éclaire un autre. Un livre qui s'adresse tant aux amateurs de littérature qu'aux professionnels de l'édition. Un livre qui s'attache aux possibles de la typographie dans le champ littéraire.

Summary: This book is an artist’s guide to copyright, written for makers. Both practical and critical, this book will guide you through the concepts underlying copyright and how they apply in your practice.

Author·s: Lucile Olympe Haute
Published by: Self-published, 2023
Pages: 20
Language·s: English
Genre: Zine
Summary: One of the many Cyberwitches zine published by Lucile. She regularly does workshop in different places, about CSS-Print and the workshop material is linked with cyberwitches and feminism in tech. The result of these workshops are the various zines produced.
She writes it this way: This workshop proposes to circulate texts, words and images according to a slow temporality and materiality, and to a limited audience. The chosen vehicle is micro-edition. Participants produce the graphic layout of one of the texts gathered for the workshop (manifesto, open letter, short essay, fiction...) The corpus hinges on the triple intersection of political awareness, technological emancipation and spirituality. Participants also contribute with proposals. The method used to bring the texts together is appropriation through graphic design using open-source tools. Together we produce the new volume of the mini-anthology called 'Cybersorcières'. This workshop is an introduction to web-to-print, i;e graphic design for print using web tools and languages.
