About Refracting Reality Dizajn Libri
Refracting Reality është një libër për dritën dhe perceptimin njerëzor. Libri eksploron katër karakteristika të dritës: përthyerjen, reflektimin, difraksionin dhe interferencën. Këto cilësi shprehen përmes tipografisë dhe imazheve në 368 faqe. Letra e veshur dhe e paveshur u zgjodhën për të mbështetur përshtypje të ndryshme të dritës. Një prizëm i ngurtë mbahet në kurrizin e librit dhe mund të hiqet nga lexuesi. Me prizmin, lexuesit mund të vëzhgojnë drejtpërdrejt sjelljen e dritës dhe të ndërveprojnë me imazhet e shtypura.

- Production Technology
- The book was printed with the Epson P600 inkjet printer and using the Red River paper. Coated paper and uncoated paper were used for inner pages and the prism was used as a book's spine accessory.
- Design Challenge
- To create a 368-page book designed from extensive research on a chosen topic. Not only design a book but also curate the contents, edit and create a compelling narrative for readers to experience the book extensively.
- Research
- In modern society, light is commonly used as a medium throughout a lot of screen time and various screen types. The designer wants to understand deeply the history of how humans started using light and what metaphors light has been bringing to humanity throughout centuries.
Not only looking at light as an art medium but also looking at the different meanings of light brings different cultures and religions in history. Different perspectives that humans observed light was the interesting context of the research for this project. - Inspiration
- Light has been the main part of our world since the beginning of time. Humans have learned to use light to tell stories, relate, experience, and communicate. This book questions our perception of the world by examining the light through different forms of expression.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2019 in Pasadena and finished in April 2010 in Pasadena.
- Operation Flow
- Prism can be taken out of the book spine and readers can experience traits of light such as reflection, refraction, diffraction, and Interfere by using the actual prism. They can also interact with the book because a lot of imageries were curated considering this interaction.
