In a series of provocative short lectures, the speakers will react to the book and its overall theme. The event is chaired by curator Huib Haye van der Werf. Music is provided by Laurenz Brunner. A compendium of ideas and a source for debate, Uncorporate Identity is an ambitious collection of design projects around visual identity and politics. It presents the visual projects and writings of design studio Metahaven along with a host of contributing writers. Organized as a sequence of five chapters, each comprising case studies, notes and essays, it explores, visually and textually, the paradoxes of identity in a networked world.
