Dyad

DYAD is a collaboration between a poet and a graphic artist. In its thirty-two image-poems, linear reading expands into spatial exploration, so that each piece is both a poem and a work of visual art. More than a text or script, other than a mere series or set of segments of alphabetic writing, each image-poem turns, rather, into an intricate artefact with a plasticity of its own, and its own implicit depths, potential undercurrents and explicitly actualised surfaces. An image-field is created, among whose patterns meanings and forms interact - and play.
A nine-year-old girl grapples with feelings of powerlessness until a wish upon a star transports her into her subconscious dream world. Within this journey, she discovers that the key to her challenges has always been within her grasp. Through her experiences, she learns to recognize her own potential and the power to shape her reality. Hope's Dream inspires readers to awaken to their inner strength, encouraging them to become the masters of their own lives.
This Element examines the function and significance of typographic space. It considers in turn the space within letters, the space between letters, the space between lines, and the margin space surrounding the text-block, to develop the hypothesis that viewed collectively these constitute as a 'metalanguage' complementary to the text.
Zegar nieubłaganie odmierza czas do Godziny Zero i powrotu Drakuli. Niedobitki Departamentu 19, tajnej rządowej organizacji zajmującej się walką z wampirami, wilkołakami i innymi potworami, desperacko próbują powstrzymać siły ciemności. Do tego organizacja staje przed nowym, śmiertelnym zagrożeniem. Jamiemu Carpenterowi, najmłodszemu agentowi Departamentu 19, powierzono zadanie przeszkolenia nowej grupy operacyjnej, która ma wesprzeć pozostałych agentów w ich działaniach. Czy uda mu się sprostać pokładanym w nim nadziejom? Wojna trwa. Stawką jest przetrwanie ludzkości. James Bond, horror i fantastyka w jednym! Will Hill – zanim rzucił pracę w branży wydawniczej, aby napisać 'Departament 19', pracował jako barman, księgarz i wolontariusz dla organizacji charytatywnej. Dorastał w północno-wschodniej Anglii, boi się pająków i uwielbia koty. Mieszka w Londynie ze swoją dziewczyną. Mówi o sobie: 'Jestem pisarzem, więc spędzam bardzo dużo czasu, gapiąc się w okno, grając w gry komputerowe, sprawdzając maile, udzielając się na portalach społecznościowych oraz generalnie wymyślając nowe i nietypowe sposoby na to, aby odroczyć pisanie...'. Uważa, że jego praca jest dużo ciekawsza od niego samego.
