    Series Statement: MAK Studies (vol. 23)
    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Influenced by the currently very popular do-it-yourself movement, the contemporary design scene is shaped by a creative fusion of production and consumption. When it comes to the development of a self-made furniture culture, this book project combines for the first time design history research and consumerism theory with historical and contemporary construction instructions and interior design recommendations. Across five chapters, design history and everyday culture are vividly and closely examined. What are their origins? Which media and channels are used to pass on experiences and practical instructions? Who exchanges information with whom and under what circumstances? And what has changed since the advent of the era of digital modernity?" --
    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Die nach wie vor wachsende Begeisterung für die kreativen Möglichkeiten und sinnlich erfahrbaren Aspekte des Selbermachens prägt das gegenwärtige Designgeschehen maßgeblich durch seine Fusion von Produktion und Konsum. Als Breitenphänomen sind Do-it-yourself und Prosumer-Kultur eine durchaus widersprüchliche Erscheinung: Während einerseits die Befreiung von Konsumzwängen, Geschmacksdogmen und Gestaltungsnormen in Aussicht gestellt wird, werden gleichzeitig neue Technologien, Produktionsweisen und Vertriebsstrategien auf ihre Marktkompabilität erprobt. Die vorliegende Publikation - deren Titel auf die legendären "Nomadic Furniture"-Handbücher der 1970er-Jahre verweist - zeigt erstmals die Entwicklung des Möbelselbstbaus und bietet zahlreiche historische und aktuelle Bauanleitungen, die im designhistorischen und soziokulturellen Kontext behandelt werden: Woher kommt die DIY-Bewegung? Wer sind ihre Akteure? Wo und wie kommunizieren sie miteinander? Welche Rollen spielen Freiheit, Kreativität, Ästhetik und Perfektion für das DIY? _ über die Beziehung zwischen Designgeschichte und Alltagskultur _ Entwicklung der Do-it-yourself-Idee für den Möbelbau _ Fusion von Produktion und Konsum als prägende Faktoren der Designszene _ enthält historische und aktuelle Bauanleitungen." -- "The still growing enthusiasm for the creative possibilities and sensually experienceable aspects of DIY-making characterizes the current design process decisively through its fusion of production and consumption. As a broad phenomenon, do-it-yourself and prosumer culture are a contradictory phenomenon. While the liberation from consumer pressures, tastes and design standards is promised on the one hand, new technologies, production methods and sales strategies are being tested for their market compatibility at the same time. The present publication - whose title refers to the legendary "Nomadic Furniture" manuals of the 1970s - shows for the first time the development of furniture self-assembly and offers numerous historical and current building instructions, which are treated in the design-historical and socio-cultural context: where does the DIY movement come from ? Who are their actors? Where and how do they communicate with each other? What roles do freedom, creativity, aesthetics and perfection play for DIY? _ about the relationship between design history and everyday culture _ development of the do-it-yourself idea for furniture making _ fusion of production and consumption as defining factors in the design scene _ contains historical and current building instructions." --

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "With Josef Frank (1885-1967), the catalogue for the exhibition in the MAK, Vienna, focuses on one of the most important Austrian architects of the 20th century. In addition to his groundbreaking architectural oeuvre, the discussion considers Frank as an extremely productive designer who, although sceptical and a prominent cultural critic, must be thanked for his many important stimuli to international design that are still valid today. As an architect and designer who is still 'contemporary' to this day, Frank was known for his pragmatic design approach, and pleaded for 'normal' -- but not at all normative -- architecture and design. For Frank, the qualities of social experience were more important than formal aspects; his interiors and utilitarian articles were primarily intended to serve the comfort of the user. Josef Frank's ideas of an uncontrived and unpretentious utilitarian expedience, which was focused on an independent, free, enlightened housing and living culture beyond all stylistic dogmas and fashionable conventions, is more topical today than ever."

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Leider hatte Österreich nie -- ungleich zu z.B. Holland, Deutschland oder England -- eine relevante Anzahl von Persönlichkeiten, die Typedesign praktizierten und lehrten. [...] Unterstützt von den allgemein bekannten technologischen Veränderungen, widmen sich dennoch einige wenige DesignerInnen der aufwändigen Praxis der Schriftgestaltung und dem typografischen Detail. Nachfolgend eine Auswahl von 30 dieser angesprochenen DesignerInnen, die teilweise in AUT arbeiten, aus AUT kommen, nach AUT gekommen sind oder mit AUT nichts zu tun haben wollen." -- "Unfortunately Austria never had -- unlike e.g. Holland, Germany or England -- a relevant number of personalities who practised and taught type design. [...] Nevertheless, supported by the well-known technological changes, a few designers have devoted themselves to the elaborate practice of font design and typographic detail. The following is a selection of 30 of saiddesigners, some of whom work in AUT, come from AUT, have come to AUT or do not want to have anything to do with AUT."

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "The catalogue for the exhibition at the MAK (Austrian Museum for Applied Art/Contemporary Art in Vienna) focuses on two fundamental approaches of the Moderne movement in an antithetic comparison, including the preceding history and after-effects to this day: Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956) and Adolf Loos (1870-1933) represent opposing reactions to the basic problems of modern civilization, which were triggered by the process of industrialization and democratization. Two different concepts for a modern way of life were created: Hoffmann promoted a comprehensive aestheticization of all spheres of life, while Loos interpreted architecture and design as the functional background for the development of individual personalities. In 16 essays, well-known European and American experts investigate a wide range of contributing conditions and the highlights and consequences of these two traditions of the Moderne movement, from the 19th century to the present. The key works of Hoffmann and Loos - as well as those of their predecessors such as Otto Wagner, and successors such as Josef Frank - are richly illustrated."

    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "'Hello, Robot. Design between Human and Machine' investigates how robotics is increasingly becoming part of our everyday lives. The exhibition shows that design in its traditional function as a mediator is indispensable if robots are to become a visible reality and not just remain hidden in washing machines, cars and cash machines. The catalogue points out where we already encounter these intelligent machines and where we may come across them in the near future: in the industry, in the military and in everyday settings; at nurseries and retirement homes; in our bodies and in the cloud; when shopping and having sex; in video games and, of course, in film and literature. In a series of in-depth essays and interviews, experts such as science-fiction author Bruce Sterling or the design duo Dunne & Raby explore the question of how we deal with an environment that is rapidly becoming more digital, smarter and more autonomous. They highlight our often ambivalent relationship to new technologies and discuss the opportunities and challenges that present themselves to us as individuals and as a society in this context. In this regard, 'Hello, Robot.' broadens the scope of the discussion to include the ethical and political questions with which we are faced today in the light of technological advances in robotics, while confronting us with the contradictions that are often found in the answers to these questions."
