How Basel changed the world
This book is all about events, discoveries and ideas which may have seemed small and insignificant at the time but later changed the world. DDT and LSD, Frick & Frack, the Basel Mission and the Zionist World Congress, Tadeus Reichstein and Friedrich Nietzsche, the first printed edition of the Koran and much else provide the stuff of which exciting stories are made in Basel, the hub of the universe.
Machines and Robots
Maschinen, Automaten und Roboter faszinieren die Künste seit jeher. Computer, Internet und Digitalisierung haben dieser Faszination aber einen ganz neuen Schub gegeben. Artificial Intelligence und Robotik sind aktueller denn je, Industrie 4.0 ein neues Schlagwort. Der fünfte Band der Edition Digital Culture gibt Einblicke in aktuelle Forschungsfragen und erkundet künstlerische Potentiale und Fragestellungen, unter anderem an Projekten von Daniel Imboden und der Mediengruppe Bitnik. Die zweisprachige Publikation enthält neben zahlreichen Abbildungen auch ein ausführliches Glossar mit den wichtigsten Begriffen.

Woven Beauty
"The richly illustrated and expertly designed publication accompanying the exhibition "Woven Beauty -- The Art of West African Textiles" at the Museum der Kulturen Basel offers an impressive overview of West African textile culture, highlighting Mali, Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. Editor Bernhard Gardi was a member of the Boser-Gardi expedition that travelled across West Africa thirty-five years ago. The publication focuses on the collection assembled in the course of this journey. Well-informed contributions by renowned anthropologists provide valuable insight into an important but often neglected aspect of African art history."--Publisher's website.
Bengal Stream
Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, has one of the most important buildings of the 20th century: its parliamentary building by Louis I. Kahn constructed between 1961 and 1982. Little is known, however, about the local architecture scene that has emerged since then. Yet contemporary architecture in Bangladesh exhibits a strong formal idiom that has its roots in tradition and is combined with an innovative handling of local resources such as bamboo and brick.00Exhibition: S AM Schweizerisches Architekturmuseum, Basel, Switzerland (02.12.2017 - 06.05.2018).
Atelier Bruckner
Atelier Br ckner brings the language of the theatre to their design vocabulary. Based in Stuttgart, their recent work features the CycleBowl event at Hanover 2000, the Titanic exhibition and stands for Kodak and Panasonic. Current projects include the new Archaeological Museum in Herne and the Borders project for EXPO 2002. Their inclusive approach to design is based on the concept of "form follows content."
