Vier Typen seriellen Erzählens

Book design

This anthology explores serial narration on television. The book simulates the aesthetics, discursive, and historical dimensions of seriality in print form. Each one of the five text series, written by five authors, consists of several episodes. The absence of headlines or paragraphs makes the (text) episodes flow like on TV. All text series use a certain font similar to a specific look unique to TV series. The series contain cliffhangers, intros, etc. all visualized through typography and how text elements are positioned within the layout. Simulating and deconstructing TV in this manner gives readers insights into what is sometimes a mindless structure.
