Carsten Nicolai. Grid Index
Book Launch with the Artist
To celebrate the release of Carsten Nicolai's Grid Index book - the first comprehensive visual lexicon of patterns and grid systems - Pro qm will host a launch event where the artist will play a DJ set with records themed around grids and patterns.
Grid Index is based upon years of research, artist and musician Carsten Nicolai has discovered and unlocked the visual code for visual systems into a systematic equation of grids and patterns. The accompanying CD contains all of the grids and patterns featured in the publication from the simplest grids made up entirely of squares to the most complex irregular ones with infinitely unpredictable patterns of growth, as editable vector graphic data files. It can be used to map out the underlying grids of any image or form and to create recurring geometrical grids in graphic design - an essential reference book for designers, visual artists, architects, researchers and mathematicians.
