Codex Seraphinianus, 1976-1978

‘The Codex Seraphinianus is a book written and illustrated by Italian artist, architect and industrial designer Luigi Serafini, from 1976 to 1978. The book appears to be a visual encyclopedia of an unknown world, written in one of its languages, an alphabetic writing intended to be meaningless.’

- Wikipedia

A couple friends of mine have copies of this (I was just looking at the copy at Strand), but it’s always been too pricy for my blood. If you get a chance to see one in person, do it.

I’d forgotten about this. I once gave a copy to a couple of bibliophile friends when they married. One of the most rewarding gifts I ever gave. I’ll always treasure being told that it had instantly become “one” of the weirdest books in their collection. They have, it must be said, a very weird collection.

I am obsessed with this book.

3 Fashionable Comics Artists Who Are Making Geek Chic

The three young cartoonists featured here, Jonny Negron, Julien Ceccaldi, and Walter Scott, all draw fashion better than Anna Wintour can edit it. They are part of a next generation of cartoonists—kids born around 1986, “The Year That Changed Comics” (when Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen and Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns launched, and the first collected edition of Spiegelman’s Maus was released), who came of age while the comics aren’t just... discussions were already growing tired. These young artists haven’t had to contend with the same bullshit their cartoonist predecessors did. They’ve gotten to work from a wiped-clean slate, to make whatever they like. They are drawing inspiration from all sorts of sources, including the glossy world of high fashion. It looks good (they wear it well).

Fiona Duncan has awesome taste in comics.

ladyslothbird:

I’m loving these drawings from Manchester based artist/illustrator Peter Carrington.

“My work is initially a portrait of my futile search for knowledge, in the face of dyslexia. My practice is inspired by vintage journals of science, geometry and natural history all of which I wish I could academically conquer. I create seemingly scientific drawings, prompting viewers to read them in such a way as to gain knowledge. After realizing that this is impossible and that the visual languages of science are orphaned from their keys, these decontextualised images will be viewed in a new light. Harsh lines of labels,even letters, become abstract, and new meanings can be found. I have consolidated my research to create a visual language of my own. Mark making found from vintage zoological plates combine with geometry diagrams and pattern from scientific graphs and become symbols, making the viewer question if these images of science, nature, mystical or the occult.”
